My iphone is gray or black it is functioning but you can not see the screen so I can not call or text or anything
My iphone is gray or black it is functioning but you can not see the screen so I can not call or text or anything, I have a child that is very ill and I have to have access to a phone at all times can someone help me? It happened one other time when I plugged it in to my to listen to music. I know it is working it said something on voice control. I tried the press the circle button and the top button but the screen only turned white?
Try the following:
- A reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

I am not able to open any app on my iphone. While i'm trying to open an app it just shake the screen and it does not open and remains in the same screen. It worked fine until I charged the phone this evening. After that suddenly I'm facing this. Please can anyone help me to recover this issue? pls!
This is covered in the basics section.
A restore loses nothing.
A restore does. If you are using the iphone as designed, then everything should be on your computer. -
My iphone 4s is working but I can not see the screen.
my iphone 4s is working but I can not see the screen. What is going on?
Possibly backlight died, if you look at it closely in bright light can you see a "Shadow" of the screen image?
First, back up your phone

Then, restore the OS from scratch

If that doesn't work, you'll need to have the phone serviced

After my iphone got wet in the rain the screen is dim. I have put it in a tub rice for 36 hours but it as not improved. The phone seems to be working ok just can't see the screen.
Thank you. I told it to the apple store in Southampton and they were fab. I was lucky and there was no water damage, the water indicators didn't change colour. It was just bad luck my screen failed at the same time as it got wet!! Screen changed and all is well. Thank you Genuis Tom and West Quay!!

I just broke my iPhone 5 and can't see the screen. I haven't backed up my iPhone to iCloud yet. Is there a way I can remotely back it up so I can restore my new phone (once I get it) faster?
If you plug your phone into your computer you can sync and backup so that when you get the new phone you can restore from a backup instead of setting it up as a new iphone

Last night my phone told me that I had limited space, so I deleted a couple of apps that I was not using* My phone goes dark and will not turn on/off, nor
will it respond to anything. I press the button to get voice help~ she kept saying to go to settings and do this n that- but I cannot even see the icons for t he black screen. WHat do I do???Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)

My iPhone 4 has a very dim screen. I can barely see the icons and the phone responds to touch. The phone is pretty useless other that as a phone to receive calls.
Go into Settings >Brightness and turn 'Auto-Brightness' Off, then move the Slider all the way to the right to give you maximum Brightness. Does this make a difference?

IPad mini screen has went almost black can't see the screen
iPad mini was working great then all of a sudden the screen went black , tried to reset and the apple logo appeared then the screen went black . Can take screen shots and when I access Siri it says please connect to the internet but the screen is still black . When I now try to reset the screen is constant black and can just about make out the apple logo in certain light . I have tried a full reset using iTunes but still the black screen - any suggestions ?? The LCD screen had just been replaced 1 week ago and worked great

have had the lcd changed again and still the same problem , so it cant be the lcd or the screen
It could still be a hardware problem somewhere on the iPad. If you have restored the device, there is nothing more that you can do software-wise. I would take it to an Apple Store and ask them to take a look at it or go back to the repair center and see if they can correctly diagnose the problem. -
My light keeps going off on my iphone so i can not see the screen
can u help with my light going off
I believe the keys on an imac are F11 and F12, for dark / bright respectively.
Try that, I think it'll work.
If not, then try out all the "F" keys, one of them will work.

The screen on my iphone is shattered can i replace the screen?
the screen on my iphone is shattered can i replace the screen?
Who can say? How competent are you with electronic devices? You might be better off taking it to an Apple Store and paying for an out of warranty replacement. At least you'll know you are not using generic components that have not been approved by Apple.

My new iPhone 5 has black and white lines on the screen. It's not been damaged. I've tried turning it off but this does not solve the problem? Please help. I can't find my answer on the Internet.
By far the most common problem hardware-wise seems to be scuffs on the aluminium. Yours is the first report of a faulty screen I've seen.
If you use the same Apple ID on both devices it'll sync whatever you want it to - music/apps/photos/messages/etc.
I've just switched from a Galaxy S3 to iPhone 5 (having already owned an iPad for a while) so I'm in a similar position! -
I bought Ebey NEW Boxed (NEVER OPENED) 16GB Black Iphone 5 Virgin Mobile (USA) NO CONTRACT, want to use it in Europe, particularly in Ukraine, but for some reason now my phone does not see the Ukrainian GSM sim card. Please help to solve this problem.
Return it and get your money back. Virgin does not offer official unlocking, thus there's no way to get the phone officially unlocked for you to use it.
Sorry, but you wasted your money. -
