Screen turns green

I turn on my iPad one day and found that the screen color runs and it sort of sparkled with green pixels.  Everything else worked fine.  I tried resetting and it didn't solve the problem.  After a while (half hour later) the screen went back to normal.  What could be wrong?

Hi, whatsthis
If readjusting the screen's position helps alleviate this issue, then I think the issue lies in the cable leading to the LCD. This cable will likely need to be replaced to solve the issue. Regardless of warranty status I would recommend giving Lenovo Support a call at 1-800-426-7378 and seeing what your options are. 
Best of luck. Let us know if you need anything.

  • External screen turns green?

    I've had this setup for a while now.. A 12 inch PB with a CRT 17 inch monitor connected to the PB through the "mini dvi to vga" adapter..
    Now this is the problem: since a few days the image on my external screen is green.. It's not totally green, i can see pictures and programs but it's like the color balance isn't right.
    First I tried to change this through display calibration -> didnt help
    Then i tried to manually adjust the color balance through the screen display settings -> didn't help..
    So I thought my crt monitor was broken. But then I connected my PB to another external screen trough my "mini dvi to vga" adapter. And I had the same green screen. Then I knew it wasn't my crt monitor that was broken but it had something to do with my output signal..
    Fortunately a friend of mine has a nice 20 inch tft display. I tested the connection again with the "mini dvi to vga" adapter and got the same green screen. But then I connected my PB to his 20 inch screen through a "mini dvi to dvi" adapter and the green was gone! So it couldn't be the output singal of my PB..
    So i figured my "mini dvi to vga" adapter must not work properly somehow. I don't know how it could have broken. It happened just like that. I turned off my PB, and when I turned it back on the external screen turned green. I didn't do anything weird with it..
    Could this be? That the adapter is broken? Or do you guys think there might be something wrong with the output signal after all?
    Anyone encountered something similar?

    So I went to an apple store today, and explained them my problem. We tried a new "mini-dvi to vga" adapter but still the external screen was green!! Also, when using my adapter that I supposed was broken on another PB the output singal was perfect! So as it turns out, it's my PB thats not working properly..
    The guys at the store said it must be somthing with the motherboard.. I just don't think I can miss my PB for more than a few days!! :P

  • I started making a movie and all was well. I added a few more pictures and some sound and played it back. It plays so far and then the pictures break up into colors and then the screen turns green.  The sound continues.

    I am making a movie from still pictures. I used no theme and then started adding pictues. When I played it back, all was well. Then I added a few more pictures and some sound. When I play iot back it plays just so far and then the sound continues, but the screen turns green or the pictures break up into colors.

    Sorry, everyone.  I think I may have figured out what it was all down to...........
    I had left the IDE ribbon cable plugged into my third HDD, with the power cable unplugged.  I did this so as not to endanger my years of work on the third drive, until Windows had setup.  I have in the past, accidentally chosen the wrong partiton to format, so this seemed a good way to avoid it from then on.
    This was not a problem on my old system, but it seems this system doesn't like it.
    I must have left the drive completely unplugged, the times Windows did setup.  Amazing really.  I couldn't see the woods for the trees.
    Anyway, I'm sorry to have bothered everyone with my problem.
    Cheers
    Marcus
    edit :   Sorry Syar2003, I didn't see your reply until I had posted mine.  Many thanks for taking the time to try and help me, it seems as though I may have sorted it now.  I am using IDE drives until I can afford SATA.  But many thanks for the heads-up on the NF4-SATA compliance, I'll be sure to bare that in mind.
    I didn't actually check the NVRAID/IDE ROM version before updating the bios, so I have no idea if the revision was changed when Liveupdate flashed the Bios, I'm afraid.  I didn't know they would be updated at the same time.
    Again, cheers

  • . When I go into facebook and try to watch a video , the screen turns green.

    I have a HP 23 P114 all in one computer. When I go into facebook and try to watch a video , the screen turns green.  How can I correct this? It comes with Adobe 17?
    What can I do to correct this.

    Hey @billnaboo ,
    Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have looked into your issue with the Video not working correctly or green. Try clicking on the green screen, in the tab named Local Storage and put 10 KB and the green screen should disappear.
    Here is a link to the HP Support Assistant if you need it. Just download and run the application and it will help with the software and drivers on your system that need updating as the graphic driver could need updating.
    Have you tried another browser? This link will help you update your browser if needed.
    Let me know how this goes.
    Thanks.

  • I turn on my a1300 camera then suddenly its lcd screen turns green..why?

    i turn on my a1300 camera then suddenly its lcd screen turns green.. icons on the screen is in color green and its larger than the usual size of the icon...

    Hi, sounds like Graphic card or VRAM issue. Does it get better once warmed up?
    One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
    PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
    Reboot, test again.
    If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode).

  • What does it mean when your whole i phone screen turns green

    What does it mean when your whole iphone 5 screen turns green

    It means that you jailbroke your iPhone with redsn0w. There are several known methods to fixing this issue:
    1. Plug it into your computer and restore
    2. Plug it into your computer, then hold the power button for about 6 seconds
    3. Hold the power button and the home button to restart it. As soon as it turns on, plug it into your computer and wait
    4. Time. Sometimes it fixes itself over time.
    I would suggest refraining from jailbreaking your device next time. I know it tempting to do so, but if you want to root your phone or play with emulators, I would suggest an android device. Btw, iOS 7 looks promising for the Apple community. Keep your ears peeled this week during WWDC.

  • When I watch any kind of video the screen turns green, what should I do?

    When ever I watch a video of one I video taped or one on YouTube or a music video the screen turns green. How can I stop my iPhone from doing this?

    Most YouTube content requires Flash. Apple does not support Flash for iOS devices.
    Try using the pre installed YouTube app.

    In order to work i have to reset and turn on again. Does anybody know what can i do about this issue?

    Very strange your description.
    Did you try to update the BIOS or the graphic card driver?
    If not so please check the available versions on the Toshiba driver page and if these applications are newer so try to upgrade it.

  • No video as the screen turns green.

    When trying to watch a video, as in tech support and movies,  the screen turns green.

    Hi,
    Try the following first.
    Start a video playing.
    Right click on the video ( green screen ) and select Settings.
    Remove the tick from the box next to 'Enable Hardware Acceleration' and then click close.
    Refresh the current page and see if the video now plays Ok.
    If the above fails to correct the issue, try a clean installation of the flash plugin/ActiveX as follows.
    First, download the Flash uninstall utility on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
    Flash Player Uninstaller.
    When the download has completed, close all browser windows, open your Download folder and run the uninstaller.  After this has completed, restart the PC.
    When windows has reloaded, download and install the latest version of Adobe Flash.  Note: You may want to deselect the option to include McAfee Security Scan Plus before downloading.
    When the installation has completed, restart the PC.
    Regards,
    DP-K

  • My player screen turns green

    When I play a video on my Flash Player the player screen turns green.  The audio still plays and if I put the cursor on the status play bar, then a small icon will appear to show the screen at that position.  However, the screen remains green.   I have updated the Flash Player with the latest version.  I am running this in Internet Explorer and have also tried it in Chrome with the same results.  I am running this On Windows 8 HP touch screen.

    Please work through the video troubleshooting guide.
