You could carefully use the tip of a razor blade to lift up the screen protector. That's what I did. Be careful not to scratch anything though

  • My actual (brand new) iPad screen appears to have bubbles after on it after I removed a screen protector. HELP

    Can someone help:
    I bought a new iPad from the Apple Store in Danbury CT the day before yesterday (it's a Verizon iPad). I bought a screen protector for it today and after deciding to remove it, was left with bubbles on the actual screen itself.
    Any thoughts.....Thanks.

    I just really find it hard to believe that the screen itself has bubbles in to, but we can't see the device. Why don't you take it to an Apple Store and have a genius look at it? Or take it back to Verizon, since they put the screen protector on it.
    Is the touch screen responsive ... It works OK?

  • I am having the hardest time with the screen protectors! HELP ME|!

    So I bought the Anti-Glare screen protector from the Apple Store fir my iPhone. The first time I out it on, it looked good, but when I really looked at it, it was crooked around the Home button which looked really stupid, so I took it off with some tape and repositioned the protector, but yet again, can not get it straight, but worse of all, because my house is filled with flying dust, the back of the protector is filled with dust and lint and smudges, so now I cannot use the first one, so i open the other and what happens? THE SAME THING!!! So I have 2 questions.
    1. What am I doing wrong, what is the best way to put these on? Should I take the protector off just a bit and place it on the phone and then let it fall into place? Or take it off completely and then place it and hope I get it straight the first time?
    2. I am going to buy some new protectors (Same brand and everything), but I am wondering, would the Apple store give me an exchange despite the fact I did this to the protectors? Has anyone done that before?
    Thanks!

    It took me THREE OF THE THINGS before I get one of them on -- luckily, once on, it has never had to come off, and that has been since July.
    I ended up putting a small piece of scotch tape at the bottom right corner, which helps you lift it up and reposition without having to lift it too far that desk lint and things get on it again.
    I actually got so fed up after the first two, when I went back to get the second package of them (since there are only two of them per pack) that the "Genius" assisting me said he was a pro and would put it on for me. After the "Genius" had himself used up two of the protectors and it still looked awful, he just gave me another pack and wished me well.
    The third one was the charm though, and it has worked perfectly ever since.

  • Anyone know if there is a case with a built in privacy screen protector?

    I know that like otterboxes and some other case companies have a screen protector built into the front face plate of the case. i just wondered if there's something along the lines with a privacy screen protector any help is appreciated oh ant by the way i am interested if there is one for the iphone 4

    I know VLC makes an iPad player (or used to anyway, they might have removed it for some reason), but the real champion when it comes to ripped media is CineXplayer.  I'm not sure how or why, but he offers superb play-back on almost all my content.
    He does sometimes have trouble with audio-codecs... and on my first gen-ipad he lags on 1080p playback.  But I think that's a hardware limitation due to the tiny RAM chip they put in it, more so than a software limitation.

  • Help me find a good screen protector!!

    hi all,i need some help with the screen protectors.can you suugest me a good scrren protector,except of power support,for iphone 3gs??i do not want power support ,cause here in greece i cannot find them.but i like the style of power support film.so,can you suggest me some good film screen protectors??i have seen the digifocus .are they good?

    The phone doesn't need a screen protector, and if you put one on you defeat the oleophobic coating. Just get a good case and don't carry it with the screen exposed in your pocket. My original 2G phone had a perfect screen after more than 2 years when I traded it in.

  • Has anyone removed the screen protector from Otterbox?

    I have the Otterbox on top of Apple's anti-glare screen protector as suggested in this forum. I'm having way too much trouble getting a response out of buttons on the edge of the screen or in the corners. I touch and touch, even press hard but no response. Even getting the phone to snap a picture is near impossible. I have no problems when I remove the Otterbox case, so I know it isn't a screen issue. I love the feel and protection afforded by the Otterbox case and would like to use it. Has anyone removed the screen protector from their case, and if you have, can you comment on the subsequent performance of it? Of note, I use the Otterbox case because I have young kids who use the phone - we don't have a landline. In other words, it's not dust protection I'm looking for, but impact protection. I hate to tear up a $50 case if it won't function anymore.

    I removed the screen protector that was part of the Otterbox case and it now works much better. Still have the Power Support anti-glare screen protector on it. Also removed the small cover over the camera lense and now my pictures are more clear. Finally, I removed the covers over the speakers and I can hear the speakerphone again. These mods made the case an A+ for me. A little less protection but much better functionality.

  • Screen Protector from **** (How to remove it?)

    Hello. I have used more-thing crystal screen protector, that came with More-Thing Para Collection (clear) Case. One the next day i decide to remove it, but all edges of Screen Protector was gone, even cutout for the front camera is gone. I've tried to use scotch, needle and other things to remove Screen Protector, but nothing works. Could you give me an advice, how to remove more-thing crystal screen protector?

    Are you even sure the screen protector is still on it? Sounds like it isn't from your description.

  • My I pod screen is frozen. I've cleaned it multiple times, and have even taken the screen protector off. Yet it still won't sense my touch. Can anyone help!

    My I pod screen is frozen. I've cleaned it multiple times, and have even taken the screen protector off. Yet it still won't sense my touch. Can anyone help!

    Before taking it in to the Apple Store... Try this...
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...

  • IClear Screen Protector/ Scratch remover.

    Hello there,
    I was wondering if anybody new if the iClear screen protector actually removes scratches on the iPod nano/video body?
    If not, could anybody reccomend a scratch remover of some type?
    Thanks.

    I doubt any screen protector actually removes scratches from the nano.
    But to remove scratches you can use Brasso, Ice Cream, Toothpaste (not reccomended), Displex, and many more. Really if you're not sure which one to use you should check the internet for success stories. There was a really good success story with Brasso on the internet, which is good because it is only $4.

  • Clear screen protector application - air bubble removal

    I have bought many clear screen protectors and often have had issues trying to get the air bubbles out from the screen protectors. Sometimes, dust is underneath the protect and when I try to clean it out using the cloth included with the protector, it gets even more dust and then the protector becomes useless. Is there any recommendations on how to best avoid getting air bubbles underneath your screen protector?

    I just received and installed the Incipio Feather case on my iPhone 4. I had it on my 3G and liked it as it is a very slim, unobtrusive case and is like a hard plastic core with a matte, slightly rubbery, velvety surface. I had installed Zagg first, but was displeased with the orange peel surface on the front. I left the Zagg on the back as I do feel it will offer good protection from the back and removed it from the front. The case fit with no problems. The incipio feather comes with 2 hard clear screen protectors with a hole for the front camera, and the front protectors are MUCH better than having the rubbery, lumpy Zagg on the front screen and don't require any liquid to apply. I was hoping I would get one crystal screen protector and one matte protector as I did when I used Power Support screens in the past, but they are both clear. The surface is smooth and nice. I don't have any loss of signal now when I hold the phone in my palm cupping the lower left side. I probably slightly prefer the matte power support screen as it is easier to keep clean, but power support is not shipping yet. If I had to do it over again I would skip the Zagg and just get the incipio. Just my 2 cents and thought I'd share my experience.

  • Help Find Screen Protector (In Store Pl0x)

    Hi, it's me again. I'm having trouble finding a screen protector. I got one at the apple store with the iPod Touch 4G, but it was for the 2G version, and didn't have the hole for the camera and didn't fit right. My sister got me one at wal-mart today, for iPod touch 4G, but it doesn't have a hole for camera, and it's the matte one.
    My friend said the matte ones suck, they make the image quality horrible. So, I put it on, like an idiot, and yes, I hate it, and it makes it look bad. He said get the glossy screen protector. I can't find a glossy one for 4G, anyone know of one? Also, does it have a hole in it for the camera? This current one makes it all blurry without the hole .

    Try Best Buy and Amazon. They have several brands.
    I haven't found one that sticks completely to the screen, although I've followed the instructions including the cleaning process.
    I'm looking for a wrap around case. The only ones I can find have a belt clip which makes it too bulky for my purse. I've opted for the shell type case that just covers the back and edges and also use the screen protector that keeps coming undone at the edges. And they do show lots of fingerprints.

  • Im looking for a case with a built in screen protector Help

    Im looking for a case, thats semi-slim, with a built in screen protector, and possibly waterproof.
    any suggestions

    I think if your looking for that kind of protection its pretty much going to add bulk...I've searched through hundreds of cases and those are the smallest with built in screen protectors...im 5' tall 100lbs and the ballistic fits in my pocket comfortably...I've never seen an otterbox on one so I can't truly compare them...I know I found a leather flip front case with a screen protector on Amazon too...very little protection and far from waterproof though...they have baggy kind of things that are waterproof that you can use your phone through...I don't know if it would fit in with any kind of case on it though

  • Screen protector? & cleaners...help!

    I bought a silicon sleeve from walmart, its a belkin. it came with a screen protector, and I'm not sure if I should apply it or not...ive heard some screen protectors leave residue, so please give me your opinions! also, my brother sprayed some air freshener, and the mist landed on the back, and it left little spots that look like smudges, but they don't go away, does anyone know what to clean it with that won't ruin it? thanks in advance!!

    go ahead and use the screen protector, if it leaves residue you can clean it off. As for the specks on the back, I dont know.

  • Screen Protectors-Helpful???

    Do screen protectors (the thin plastic sheets you put over the screen or body) prevent scratches. I'd rather use that than a bulky case but do they work?

    Megabenman is quite rude.
    I have researched this greatly and have used several. I think the single piece theinvisibleshield.com is best for the front. I brushed the nano's back and it is beautiful: http://members.optusnet.com.au/brushedipod/
