my screen is blacked out, it will pop back in for a few then fade back out; does this happen to anyone else?
Reset the device:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
No data is lost due to a reset.

While I was trying out the voice over option on my phone I somehow put it in a mode to where the screen stays black and it will only talk to me. How do I get it back to normal?
"If VoiceOver is on and the screen is black, but you can still use the device by pressing volume up and volume down, you may have screen curtain on. Try triple-tapping using three fingers on the device display to turn off screen curtain. Or connect the device to iTunes"

Can't connect to my iMac when energy saver is active.
Screensaver is okey, but if the screen is blacked out, I cant connect using vnc/teamviewer/logmein. SSH is okey.
Anyone else having this issue? Worked great in snow leopard. Updated to 10.7.1
//NiklasOk so I happened to figure it out while on the phone to apple support. Even though the guy was very nice, I think I knew more than him! He was explaining very basic resolution principles I played about. I had the second option in displays resolution. All I did was unplug the HDMI cable, click on 'best for display' then plugged the HDMI in and my resolution on the normal monitor changed to the normal blue, then went black momentarily and then changed to a strange resolution but another window appeared that said SONY BRAVIA HDMI at the top! Hey presto! Don't know why it didn't do it yesterday - I probably left the HDMI cable in or something! Oh well. Problem solved!

Try restarting the iPhone by holding down the on/off and the home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo.

My touchscreen blacks out while on a call so I can't multitask. If I am on a call and a new call comes in, I can't see who is calling or even think of answering because the screen is blacked out.
Thank you so very much! My husband is in Afghanistan and calls at different times. If I am on a call and can't answer him it could be days before I hear from him again. I never thought to just restart my phone! Duh...this is my first smartphone so I am learning. All day people were calling while I was on the phone but I couldn't answer. Thank GOD none of the calls were my husband because it would break my heart if I missed his call. Thank you again and GOD bless you! Ashley Combahee

The screen is black, vibrates and will not let me off
the screen is black, vibrates and will not let me off
First try reseting your phone by holding down the home and lock buttons for about 10 seconds. If that doesn't fix your problem take it into an Apple Store to have it serviced.

Screen is blacked out but calls and such still coming through...
My screen is blacked out but I still hear texts, calls, alarms, etc coming through. When I plug it in to my computer for a reset it doesn't identify the phone and there are no "portable devices" settings under "manage devices". HELP please
If you restored to factory defaults/new iPod (you did not say the type of restore your performed) and are still having the problem that indicates a hardware problem. An appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order..

My iPhone screen went black and won't turn back on.
Yesterday, my iPhone 4S screen went black and won't turn back on. So I tried just letting charge but after an hour nothing happened, so then I switched out the chargers and made sure the outlet I was using worked. But it still was black. Then I did a little research and I tried to put it into DFU mode but my power button has been broken for a few months now, so that didn;t work either. Then I tried restoring it, but my computer didn't recognize it!!! So then over night I let it rest with no power source connected to it. This morning I plugged it back into a power source and it showed the charging icon. I'm pretty that means it's still running, but I'm not an expert. PLEASE HELP!
If you have got a different USB Sync cable try to charge your iPhone with that as there are possibilities that your current USB cable or Power Adapter is not Charging your iPhone. If it still doesn't work make an appointment to Nearest Apple Genius Bar

Downloaded a trial version of the "Living Earth Desktop" screensaver and cannot get rid of it. I deleted the download and cannot find it anywhere else on my mac. I will change the desktop image and the living earth image will pop back up minutes later. Does anyone know how I can make this image stop taking over my desktop? Thanks!

This is the website.IF you know the exact file name of the download, you can search for it in the spotlight.
(This icon) in the upper right corner.
If you don't know the exact file name, you may have to redownload it so you can see it.
I would also try doing a reboot after you change your desktop background to what you want.
