My ipad mini screen icons just gone 'grey'

Screen icons are now just 'grey'-no other details .On touch still allow access.

especially if you can replicate it, i'd make an appointment at your local apple store and take it in. There have been reports of screen flickering after people have used some graphics intensive games and apps, but it shouldn't be 'normally' happening.

  • Since i have installed OS Lion, my second screen has just gone grey. Why is this?

    I can still see my mouse on it and right click for options; but there is no background and i cannot see any windows/apps.  When using Snow Leopard i didn's have this issue, it is recent, since installing Lion. I have checked the monitor, it works as a main monitor of the Windows Computer, as a monitor for a PS3, on my familys(and my) MacBook Pro as a second screen. Can anyone help?

    I am really cross with Apple for not involving the iDVD with Lion (even if it was an older version, they should atleast have made it compatible).
    iDVD is compatable with Lion. I carried it over from Snow Leopard when I upgraded and it runs faultlessly. I do not know what has happened during your upgrade that has caused it to stop working properly.

    why is the ipad mini screen so delicate I just got my ipad mini yesterday and it fell of a stand I bought and now the screen is cracked

    My Ipad 3 is the same, it must be a design fault cuz I dropped a pound coin on my ipad screen and it shattered and every other week there's a new dent or scratch, though I wouldn't say I'm overly rough with it. I use it a lot, like most do, so accidents will happen and Apple hav to allow for that. I deffently wouldn't say that they are worth the money for the amount of trouble they cause, they r great devices, just far too delicate and expensive! 

  • Hi, i just shocked when i recognized, my Ipad mini screen full of scratches,

    Hi, i just shocked when i recognized, my Ipad mini screen full of scratches, after playing Virtual table tennis app...I have a griffin hard cover, and i always keep in safe my staff, ...so I did the scratches with my neal...wich i think is abnormal, in this case....
    I saw a few youtube videos and they try to make scratches with key...andsoon...
    So what can I do it now....??
    Anybody have an experience like this..?????

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely.  Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

  • My iPad mini screen won't rotate

    Why my ipad min screen won't rotate.

    If you see a lock icon in the upper right corner of the screen - then the screen orientation is locked.
    Try the side switch above the volume rocker first and see if that unlocks the screen. If that doesn't do it, swipe up from the bottom to get to the control center. Look for the lock icon in the row of icons at the top. It will be the last one on the right. Check that to see if the screen is locked.
    If the screen is unlocked but still will not rotate, reset the iPad.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the button

  • What is the best way to clean the iPad mini screen?

    What is the best way, recommended by Apple to clean the Ipad Mini screen (ie: type of paper or cloth and what solution) ?

    It's a damp soft cloth. Like a microfiber cloth you'd see for eyeglass cleaning. Damp, not wet, and just water, no chemicals.
    Unless your screen is really grungy, simply wiping away the fingerprints should help.

  • Are there any screen protectors that feel as smooth/slippery as the iPad Mini screen?

    I'm looking for a screen protector that feels as smooth/slippery as the normal iPad Mini screen. The screen feels really nice, especially for games, I'd like to keep it as is but I'm afraid of getting it scratched. This is my first Apple device so I apologize if this has been asked before. Thanks!

    I was considering the same thing when I bought my iPad Air. I really enjoy using the iPad with no cover/case at all. The way Apple designed it. The cool aluminum and smooth glass. I understand you on those points. The same can be said for the iPhone. I have both a case and screen protector on my iPhone. I can remove the case, not the screen protector. Those aren't made to install and remove repeatedly.
    I'd prefer not to use a screen protector because of how it blurs the screen but also because it affects the "feel" of the screen. Gone is the silky smooth feeling of the glass. I got a scratch on an iPhone screen once and use a screen protector now. I carry the iPhone with me 24/7 so it needs more protection.
    My iPad Air is a different story. I also bought it at BestBuy and use it for iBooks quite a bit too! I use the new iPad Air SmartCase to protect it but haven't installed a screen protector. I haven't installed one because the screen is only vulnerable while I'm using it and is protected by the case while I carry it. I like how the display looks and feels without the screen protector on.
    The good news is, if you decide to install a screen protector, you can easily remove it if you change your mind. I hope this helps...

  • How do i fix a scratch on iPad mini screen?

    IS there any product I can buy to repair a small scratch on my iPad mini screen?

    You can either put a screen protector over it and ignore it, pay the $219+ for an out of warranty replacement or if you have apple care plus, cash in one of your $49 dollar accidental damage events and get a replacement.

  • IPad mini screen problems

    A section of my brand new iPad minis screen keeps going blank, black or extremely pixelated though the screen sensor still works in that area. It used to come and go but currently it seems to be permanent. What to do????

    Doesn't matter where you bought it, it's still covered by Apple's 1-year warranty.
    Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

  • My ipad mini screen will not slide to unlock

    My IPad mini screen will not unlock. It was fine one minute and the next, I couldn't slide it to unlock it.

    Does anything happen when you touch the screen, the slider doesn't get a box around it (which would indicate VoiceOver being 'on') ?
    If not then have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
