My screen just started to turn reddest with lines running through.

I have the ipad 1. any ideas or is this the end, i barely use this device.

Once the desktop is up and the iMac ready to use, open Systeem Preferences (Apple menu) and click the Startup Disk item. In the new screen, make sure that OS X on your hard drive is selected in the top row - click it once to make sure. Then test.

  • My ipod touch has a grey screen with lines running through it

    My screen is grey with lines running horizontally across it 

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: 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. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar          
    or maybe:
    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • IPad 2 works perfectly fine except that the screen is all green and fuzzy with lines going through, what happened?

    Last night, my iPad 2 fell so gently that I don't even understand what happened. Anyways, it fell off the bed and now the screen is green and fuzzy. I read somewhere that there was a hardware problem and also that it could have moved something that might have caused it to be green and fuzzy. I also read to smack it on the back of the iPad and see if it works but it hasn't.. What happened, and do you think they will replace it?

    Even if the smack on the back worked it would be on
    Y a temporary fix. An iPad that falls off a bed onto the floor probably needs a trip to the service department. Contact Apple to make arrangements for repair.

  • My iMac 27" is 2 years old. The screen just start to sleep every 2-3 minutes and then one has to reboot it. I bought the unit from Incredible Connections in South Africa. They sent it to the South African distributors Core. They report LCD screen defect?

    My iMac 27" is 2 years old. The screen just start to sleep every 2-3 minutes and then one has to reboot it. I bought the unit from Incredible Connections in South Africa. They sent it to the South African distributors Core. They report LCD screen defect and charged me R7500-00 to replace the screen  and sent it back after 4 weeks.
    It does not  go to sleep anymore; but when switch on; there appears a flickering band of lines on the screen which last for about 20 seconds before the machines starts to work normally.
    It seems there is still a screen problem!
    We had to send it back again.
    The other problem is that you just get no communication out of the Core workshop and you cannot communicate with the technician.
    They had still not provide a technical report in spite of repeated discussion with the manager of Incredible Connections.

    Sounds like the graphics card might be the problem. Run the Hardware Test in extended mode. If you get an error it can be trusted, but getting a negative may not be all that meaningful.  Bring it back to them and let them check out the machine again.

    I just started having an issue with my bank website working properly. They have told me it is because of the last safari upgrade. Is this being resolved?

    You might want to consider "voting with your feet" and taking your business to another bank.  When they tell you the upgrade is the problem, it is really their problem and not yours.  If you don't want to do that, the suggestion that you try another browser is absolutely correct.

    Have you updated to the latest level of Keynote on your iPad? Keynote 2.0.1 (1075)  - Check Settings > Keynote
    If so, there isn't much that you can do other than report this bug to Apple http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html
    You could try restarting or resetting your iPad.
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).

    I would try reinstalling.
    Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks without erasing drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    Reinstall Mountain Lion or Mavericks
    OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
         Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet

  • Ipad had colored lines running through the screen

    My ipad first generation which i love now has colored lines running through the screen.  Can it be fixed?

    Howdy diana,
    It sounds like your iPad has mulitcolored lines all over it. I would recommend a few things here to help isolate the issue to software or hardware. Try restarting the phone with this article:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If the issue persists, I would next try reseting the device with the same article:
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
    If the issue is not resolved, I would next backup your device to iTunes, and restore it as a new device to see if the lines are still there. If not then restore your backup and verify they are still gone.

    If the lines are there even when setup as a new device, your iPad may need service:

  • Screen has lines running through it, is it worth replacing screen?

    Screen has lines funning through it, is it worth replacing screen on 2009 iMac?

    What do you mean by lines running through it?  There have been users with vertical lines, sometimes blue, or yellow, or pink, or combinations.  Those have all turned out to be a bad graphics unit chip that the Apple store techs were able to remove and replace without replacing the entire logic board.
    Take it to an Apple store genius bar and have the techs test and advise on how to resolve this.

  • Extra line running through the screen on my Officejet 6500 printer

    I just noticed a second horizontal line running through the screen on my Officejet 6500 printer screen (right through where the ink levels show up.)  The screen resembles graph paper.  What causes this?  Is there something wrong with the machine?  Can something be done to correct it?

    Hi there,
    A full factory reset may not be required. Try downloading and running the print and scan doctor located here:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03275041&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en
    It can fix a lot on its own and if not give a better idea of what is going on.
    Best of Luck!

  • Satellite A100-683: Small Lines running through screen

    Hello,
    I bought my Toshiba A100-683 for a month ago.
    The problem is that I sometimes see small grayish lines running through the LCD screen from the top the bottom.
    This is are the type of lines u also see when u use your (phone) camera to make a movie of a monitor / lcd screen.
    I don see them always and seem to appear randomly.
    I've updated my video card drivers but this didn't solve the problem.
    Is anyone familiar with this problem ?? Or knows an solution for it before i will send it for repair.

    Greetings from Holland,

    Hi
    I would recommend connecting it to the external monitor. If the small lines dont appear on the external connected monitor so I suppose the graphic card is ok and possibly only the FL inverter could has a malfunction.
    Anyway, its no matter whats wrong because the warranty should be valid in your case and all replacements should be done for free.
    greetings

  • Macbook Black A1181 screen on start up perfect, then with usage pixels fail along bottom of screen. How do I fix?

    This Issue confuses me and I have moderate computer knowledge but very little LCD knowledge.
    The Screen will start up just fine, and about 20-30 minutes into using the laptop the LCD shows what appears to be dead pixels by start meni Icons and the lower taskbar (based on windows). It used to be JUST the start menu button but has spread to the enture lower task bar like a disease. Am I looking at a screen swap out, a cord connected to the screen from the logic board, or a failing graphics card? Ideas and fixes? I assume it will eventually become unreadable if it spreads upward. Im usually ok with it but the bottom portion today was awful at one point so I thought I would jump on and ask some experts.
    I do solder work so if it is something that bad, I can operate on it. I currently have the keyboard loose and macbook screws out so I can check any suggestions on hardware.
    Help please.

    Going to ask one more series here for me personally for reference sake.
    Could you tell me the failure point of this hardware on the display, what lesser component is actually faulty on the LCD other than the whole LCD itself
    What are actually the root causes/triggers of this type of failure besides usage (if any) and it is common?
    Much appreciated

  • My new iPhone 6 plus just went to a black screen and will not turn back on. If you hit the home button for siri to come on it still works, and if you plug it into the wall it makes the vibrate noise. The screen just won't turn on.

    I was looking up a song on the internet, and my internet was being slow, so i was going to the settings to turn internet/wifi off so i could use data. When i did that the screen just went completely black. I didnt know what happened so i plugged it into a circuit into the wall to see if it needed charging. It made the buzz noise when i plugged it into the charger, and siri still works if you hold the home button down. I don't know what to do to get it to turn back on... If anyone knows what to do please help. thanks !

    Hey there Maggie,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    The article linked below provides troubleshooting tips that can help you resolve the blank black screen issue with your iPhone 6 Plus.
    Get help with the screen on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    If you see a solid color screen (black, white or blue)
    Plug in your device to a power source. If you see the low-battery screen when you plug in, let your device charge for at least 10 minutes (20 minutes for iPad) before using it.
    Reset your device while it's plugged in.
    If resetting doesn’t fix the issue, restore your device.
    If you still see the issue after you restore, contact Apple Support.
    Cheers,
