My screen is just black

My computer will charge & everything, but my screen is 100% black. Just suddenly it stopped working, I didn't drop it or anything

Hello yung_jvyden,
So your iPhone is on or it wouldn't be playing music yet you can't seem to "wake it up" as the buttons aren't responding.
There's a section in this article for buttons not responding.
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
If your device doesn't respond when you press buttons
Your device might not return to the Home screen when you press the Home button, wake from sleep when you press the Sleep/Wake button, slide to unlock or power off, or it might appear frozen. Try these steps:
Restart your device.
If it still doesn't respond, or if it doesn't turn back on, reset your device.

As far as trying to power up your device, make sure it has a good charge and then hold the button on the top of the phone and the home button on the faceplate together until the apple appears on the screen.

REALLY NEED HELP!! screen is just black and wont turn on

i have an 8GB, 2nd geration, black ipod nano and i was just listening to my ipod in activity class when my ipod froze. so i tried the manual restart. but it didn't turn back on. now the screen is just black, wont even restart no matter what. so i tried plugging it into my computer but the itunes doesn't recognize it. there's a screen that pops up thats tells me to look for the files or download or something like that but when i try to, it says files not found. right now im at a total loss. nothing i do turns it on. what do i do now? should i just toss it? i dont even know if i wan't to buy a new one cause im scared this might happen again. i really dont want to use another $250 for another one.

Sounds like the fall broke something internal. Take it to Apple and have them check it out.

HELP!!! my 6280 screen is just black

since i swapped the front half of my 6280 with another (smashed screen) my screen is just black and i have to press it down to get it working, HELP PLEASE!!!!

I've experienced this before. The keypad lights up but no screen right?
I'm pretty sure your LCD's contacts are loose/faulty. You should send it in for repairs..

Restore the device to factory settings and add your content, then try again.
If no change, then something maybe wrong with the iSight camera at the front, so make an appointment with someone at the Genius bare at your local Apple retail store.

Can somebody advice me what to do, when I want to play video on iPad, the screen is just black....but in iTunes it shows he movies are there.

Can somebody advice me what to do... when I want to play video on iPad, the screen is just black....it was just fine this morning. In iTunes it shows the movies are there.

Try starting the movie using a backdoor approach.
Swipe down from the middle of any home screen in order to bring up the Spotlight Search Feature. Type in the name of the movie in the text field. When the movie appears in the search, tap on it and that should launch the videos app and hopefully the movie will being to play.

In the Video screen its JUST BLACK

6.0.1.3 (version) Plus the New QT
Where you could usually see your itunes files it's just black. Has anyone else heard of this?
everything else works fine.

hi Tom!
just checked myself, and indeed it was all black on my (6.0.0.18) beast too.
when the screen is black like that, i see there are a couple of icons under the "browse" eye. click on the horizontal lines one and we get the blue and white lines again. click the four black boxes and you get the inky blackness.
perhaps that's our video screen? and the lines thing is our video library?
love, b

Screen's just black- hardware problem

My friend let my iphone 4s as fall on the ground.. now the screen is black but the sound and screenshots are working. Its 2 1/2 years old. When I put in the charging cable it also makes a sound. I put it back to the factory settings bug now its just black because of it. Should I send it to apple for repair or replacement?

Try a reset by pressing and holding the home and power buttons until the white Apple logo appears.
If this does not resolve, it was seriously damaged by the drop, take it to Apple for an Out of Warranty replacement.

T440 screen is just black

Hi,
I've been using my new T440 for about a week with no problems, but all of a sudden my screen just doesn't do anything. I don't even see the ThinkPad logo on startup, it's all black. It makes the beeping noise when I try to get into BIOS, so I'm hoping it's still doing something, but I can't see anything. Does anyone know what's going on?

Hello, had the same issue. Was working fine for 1 week and the screen goes black randomly after 5 to 10 minutes usage. When i say the screen goes black it is more like it does not have any backlightning.
It happen in the OS (windows 8.1) but also while i am in the bios.
What i already did :
- Update drivers for both graphic cards
- remove all adaptative screen option (in windows 8.1 but also at the intel driver level).
However as it is also happening on the BIOS, i've investigating an hardware issue :
- Emergency reset button
- I have plug and unplug the LCD cables (on the motherboard end)
- I have plug and unplug the internal battery to see if it could come from a misconnection or something
Nothing has solved the issue and the screen continues to go black
Does someone is experiencing the same and has already had an answer from lenovo ?
Laptop is : t440s with touch screen

When I click on the music icon the screen is just black.

Can anyone help. I just bought an album from itunes and now when i click on the music icon the screen just goes black, still with the time in the corner.

Try resetting the iPod. Nothing will be 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.

I downloaded a TV series and when I try to play it, the screen is just black. I downloaded the latest version of iTunes as well.

I downloaded a TV series and all the episodes show "downloaded" and when I go to play them in iTunes on my laptop, the screen is black and it wont play. I made sure I have the latest version of iTunes. I have no problem playing them on my iPad. This is the first time this has happened...I have been able to play all my downloads on my PC in the past.

See if any of these things will get the videos app working again.
Quit the videos app completely.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Try the videos app again.
If that doesn't work, reboot the iPad. Reboot 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 buttons.
If that fails, try this. Swipe to the right from your first home screen to get to the iPad Spotlight search. Type in the name of the movie in the field at the top. When the movie appears in the search - tap on it and it should start to play. Let it play for a minute or so - hit done - go back to videos app and see if all is OK.

I am new to iTunes. I have downloaded the player onto my PC. I bought a documentary, but it will not play. On the player the screen is just black (also no sound), but the timer works and shows that something is happening. Any suggestions?

Hi there Graham!
I have a couple of articles that can help you troubleshoot this issue. First, if you are downloading HD content, you will need to know the system requirements for HD playback, which can be found here:
iTunes: Purchasing and viewing HD videos
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3209
Next, you will want to check your video playback settings on your Windows machine. The steps for that can be found right here:
Troubleshooting iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7 video playback performance issues

Hope that helps. Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!

Everytime I try to use camera on app or snap my screen is just black?

Everytime I try to use any app with my camera, the camera spot just shows up black. On snapchat I cannot even turn on of off flash or switch directions its facing, the icons are gone. I keep getting a message randomly saying my storage is full, but never when I open the camera. I have a 5S

Try:
- Go to Settings>Safari and delete/clear cookies, data history and other stuff if listed. What is listed depends upon the iOS version.
- 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 still problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

HT1476 My iPod 5 64gb wont turn on, the screen is just black, it wont do nothing. what should i do?

My ipod just stoped working,is there any way to fix it?

If the unit has NEVER been jailbroke, 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 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. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen 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."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.
