Screen goes dark when using iTunes.

i use a ipad for a class and during the session it goes dark. How can I keep it awake? Thanks.

I would now try the recommended basic fixes and they are listed here.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
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 buttons.
Quit all apps and restart. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you 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 to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
You could try to sync with iTunes again using your computer. Make sure all of the apps are selected to sync and then sync again.
You could also try removing all of the apps and then slowly, add them back to the iPad a few apps at a time and see if the iPad continues to crash, just keeping adding apps until it crashes again and then you may be able to find the culprit app. Don't delete the apps from the iPad, just try unsyncing them with iTunes and start adding them back on a few at a time.

    Hi frank at luray,
    Does this issue occur with any file that you try to send, or do you find that it's specific to one file? If it's a file-specific error, and the file is large, please try sending the file via Adobe SendNow. (You can sign in to Adobe SendNow at Sign in or create an account | Adobe SendNow using the same credentials you use to sign in to Adobe Send.)
    Please let us know how it goes.

    It's possible you've got a 'hot corner' set up. If you have and move the mouse to a certain corner of the screen it'll do as you describe. Have a look in System Preferences>Mission Control, bottom left of the window click on the 'Hot Corners' button and see if there is anything in there.

  • Screen goes dark when listening to voice mail

    My Droid Charge Screen always goes dark when listening to voice mail. if i want to delete or end the call, or go to speaker phone I can't do so by using the touch screen. It also goes black when I am on a call and if I want to activate or deactivate speaker phone I can't. sometimes I lose calls because of this. any way to keep the screen illuminated while on calls or voice mails?

        dishbasher,
    Sorry to hear about your Droid Charge device not functioning properly. It drives me crazy when technology does not work the way it is designed to, so lets get this fixed! Have you tried running your device is safe mode http://bit.ly/n2EIBZ  or a master reset http://bit.ly/w21WpW?
    Thank you,

  • How can I stop screen going dark when playing movies with night sceans?

    When viewing a NetFlix movie, during night sceans, the screen goes dark.

    You don't.
    Usually only the free apps do this, paid versions do away with the ads.

  • No Entry sign on start up screen goes dark when I use utility disk

    HELP!!!!
    Everything was fine no strange noises or bad behavior but when I started up my MacBook Pro I get a "No Entrance Sign" (or what-ever it's called).
    I have unplugged all the peripherals (external drives, monitor, etc) but to no avail.
    When I tried booting from a Utilities disk (Disk Warrior) the screen went dark and I could not see the instructions (it was there but very dark and dim).
    Is there anything I can do or am I doomed?
    HELP!!!!
    Thanks.

    Er, it looks like a "No Entrance" sign. It's OK the cats at The Genius bar understood - they call it a "No Entrance" sign too. It basically means you're screwed and need to get a  new internal drive. Luckily I managed to make a rushed back-up so things are not too severe (just expensive).

  • Primary screen goes dark when external display is added

    Hi,
    Earlier, when I was on Mac Lion, I always used to face problems whenever an external Monitor was added to the Mac through the firewire to VGA converter port.
    Hoping that Mavericks update would give me a respite from the issue, I upgraded my Mac Pro and to my utter shock, the issue has got magnified in mavericks. The primary screen goes completely dark whenever I add the external monitor.
    Any idea how to overcome this issue ?
    Thanks in advance !

    I meant the mini Display Port intead i wrote firewire port.. Hope it doesn't confuse anyone !

  • Macbook air 13" screen goes black while using iTunes

    I have an early 2014 13" Macbook Air with a 1.4 GHz Intel Core i5 processor, and I'm using OS X Yosemite 10.10.1. When I'm using iTunes, specifically when I'm watching a movie or TV show, the screen will randomly go black, but not like it turned off. The audio still works, but I can't see the cursor or anything. The only way I've been able to fix it is to completely turn it off (control+command+power) and turn it back on. It happens pretty often though, and as you can imagine, gets quite annoying. Is there any way to fix this? Thanks in advance.

    When i am playing a game, and i go to post something, the screen will go dark and i am unable to do anything but reload the game..would this be related to my flash player because it does not seem to happen to any of the other players..is there something i can adjust?

  • Screen Goes Dark when No files Are Open

    Hi,
    Since I installed the CS 6, I seem to have a problem with my display going dark whenever Illustrator CS 6 doesn't have opened files, i.e., the application runs, no files are open, and my whole screen's brigthness goes down. It only happens with Illustrator CS 6. When I open a file, the screen goes back to normal. Has anyone had that problem?

    Unfortunately attempts to take a screenshot to show you have resulted in the interface look as it if were at full brigthness so I can't show you (well unless I edit the screenshot after). But basically the whole screen brightness goes dark until I open a new file. And it only happens with Illustrator CS6. I still haven't been able to solve the issue and I can't find anything on the net about that.

  • Screen goes blank when using Patch tool

    The only information I've been able to find on this issue thus far was a post that was written during the Photoshop CS6 beta period at http://forums.adobe.com/message/4285375
    I am using the final released Photoshop CS6 software, not beta, and am having the same issue with the Patch tool. I start to drag around an area to make a selecton, and the screen goes blank so that I can't see where I'm making the selection. When I release the mouse, the image appears again. Another problem which may be related is that sometimes when I zoom in, the screen goes blank. Closing Photoshop and re-launching it usually fixes the problem, but is an annoying time-waster. I have the most current update from the Cloud for Photoshop CS6, 13.1.2.X64.
    Does anyone know a fix for this?

    RAM is 12 GB. I'm not sure which numbers are relevant for VRAM and scratch drive, but this is what I found for video card properties:
    Total Available Graphics Memory: 2809 MB
    Dedicated Video memory: 1024 MB
    System Video Memory: 0 MB

  • CS6 - Screen goes black when trying to crop & clone stamp screen goes polorized when using

    I run Photoshop CS6 on a windows 7 machine.  It has started having two problems:
    First, when trying to crop, as soon as I release the mouse button after blocking the frame to crop, the screen goes black - No controls, no picture, nothing.   I have to close Photoshop and restart to get back to the photo.
    Second, when using clone stamp, as I click to clone the photo switches to odd colors (almost like it was polarized).  The color returns to normal when I release the mouse button.
    What is going on and what do I do?
    Thank you,
    Mike Modlin

    Update your video card driver from the GPU maker's website, or disable GPU drawing in Photoshop if you cannot update the driver for some reason.

  • Screen goes dark when the computer is turned a specific way. Have to pick up the computer and move around in order to get the screen back on?

    Occasionally when I turn my computer to show someone something the screen goes completely dark. Then I have to re-turn it or move it around to try and get the screen back on. Its not automatic dim because that is turned off. There doesn't seem to be any kind of pattern either. Help please!

  • TS3274 My screen goes crazy when using it.

      Tabs being pushed and the screen moves even when I'm not touching it.  What could be wrong?

    I've had similar ghost since upgrading to iOS 7.1x.
    Makes any Gem game nearly impossible to play.
    Reading here, others are seeing like issue, while mine is 2nd Apple Store replacement Mini.
    I do a top button cycle to clear input buffer. Eventually, it settles down just enough to continue.
    I am not so sure it is only Hardware failing, but willing to concede if proven otherwise after calling AppleCare support.

  • Siri problem: volume suddenly drops and screen goes dark when turning phone

    Hi, just wondering if anyone else has or had this problem. It's been hard to quantify, but here goes.
    A number of time, when I  use siri, I will hold the button down to ask a question. Sometimes the volume will drop to a very quiet level so I can barely hear the response. Then the volume will pop right back up to its normal volume. The screen also goes black at this time, and when the volume pops back up, the screen will show the normal info it should at that time, such as what I said, or the clock if I asked for the time, or siri's quote, etc.
    Many times I will pick up my phone from a flat surface and turn it on its side as if making a call, and that is when this will happen, as opposed to me holding it flat. It also seems to occur in the morning, when the phone has been asleep overnight or it may be from cooler morning temps.
    Any ideas as to whether this is a hardware problem? I've only had the phones couple of months. It's happened so many times now I'm finally seeing this pattern I described.
    Thank you for any feedback!
    Ps... I've never had this problem with my ipad 3rd gen, even though I've truest to recreate the conditions, turning it, trying first thing in the morning and so on.
