Speaker image appears on screen and blinks

When I turn on my IPad, either the brightness symbol appears or the speaker symbol appears and blinks continuously. In order to remove it, I have to power down the Ipad. If I turn the screen off and then on again, the speaker symbol reappears and blinks. It is unresponsive to the speaker control buttons.

Hey slps01,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities, and thanks for the question. I'd give the steps in the following article a shot and see if that resolves the issue on your iPad:

    We are all users here. You are not talking to apple on these forums. There is no way anyone here can know the decision making process apple uses to determine what changes to make to the operating system. Also none of use care about which phone you might buy next.

  • My apple TV displays an apple screen, and blinking white LED, only LED responds to remote inputs.  I reset with remote ...same result....Any ideas?

    If they are the instructions I think you might have seen, they are for the Apple TV 2.
    Unfortunately I think your Apple TV may have failed.
    You might try removing ALL the cables for a while and trying again, but I think you may be out of luck.

  • 13" MBP died. Only a black blank screen and blinking lights are visible. Any ideas??

    My friends MBP died the other night.  He put it on sleep mode one night and the following morning, and when he went to turn it on the following morning it would't.  Only a black blank screen and blinking lights.  There is no sound or anything.  BTW it is a mid-2010 MBP, no added hardware, everything stock. It wasn't custom configured, and I believe he upgraded to Lion earlier this year.  I read somewhere that depending how quickly the lights are blinking could indicate a specific problem.  Is this true? He is planning on taking it an Apple store, but figured we would try here first since it is a bit of a drive, and the warranty has expired. Any help would be greatly appreciated.  We are just trying to get an idea of what we are dealing with. Thank you!

    Looks like hardware problem.
    Apple can fix it. Take it to Apple as soon as possible.

    Try:

    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.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - 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.

  • Windows 7 64-bit black screen and blinking cursor for ages before boot

    Help!
    I'm having the black screen with blinking cursor whenever I try and boot up Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit thru Bootcamp on my MacBook Pro. If i let it just sit there for maybe 2 or 3 minutes, it then goes to the Windows Boot Manager screen and allows me to click on Windows 7 and the it boots perfect. I've tried installing it twice, same thing. No problem booting OS X Snow Leo 10.6.3. Got the right NVidia drivers installed, makes no difference. Have Paragon NTFS installed so I can get thru to NTFS partition from OS X. I badly need Windows too and don't wanna slow it down by running it in Parallels or VMWare Fusion. A little help?
    Thanks a lot!

    Solved! Here's what worked for me, it's located at:

  • How to Set Image to Lock Screen and Background in Windows Store API?

    How to set an image to windows lock screen and desktop background for windows store app in c#?
    if changing lock screen is available in windows store C# how about changing the desktop background using Windows store C#?

    Hi icce cage,
    To change the Windows lock screen we can use this API:
    LockScreen class with set image methods.
    To change the desktop background, it is not possible as I know.

    Somehow a network disc has gotten selected as your startup disk. Hold the option key at start up and you should be presented with the boot screen, choose your internal hdd and once it starts go into preferences>startup disk and set the internal as your start up drive.

    how can solve this problem

    Hi
    What BSOD code you get exactly?
    Which OS you are using?
    Maybe its a driver problem. Have you checked the device manager for yellow exclamation marks?
    Can you boot in safe mode?

  • When I have an image on the screen and try to save it why does firefox download it again?

    I am on a certain web site and an image is displayed on the screen. I want to save it to my PC. Instead of saving the one already downloaded and displayed Firefox downloads it again. This is a nuisance it wastes time and bandwidth. Is there any way to correct this? Some people have suggested 'save images' but this is no help whatsoever as the same thing happens.

    Make sure that you do not run Firefox in (permanent) Private Browsing mode (Never Remember History).
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Private+Browsing
    *Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history"
    *Deselect: [ ] "Always use private browsing mode"
    In case you are using "Clear history when Firefox closes":
    *do not clear the Cache because Firefox will disable the disk cache in such a case

  • Photoshop Images Appear Darker Online and in Microsoft Paint ---- Help Please!

    Hello, I have been losing my mind over this problem: Whenever I save images in Photoshop CS6, they appear darker and with more contrast online. I am using Windows 7 OS and have calibrated the monitor to the best of my abilities
    NOTE: My Proof Setup is set at sRGB and my Color Settings are set at sRGB aswell. I Convert Images to the sRGB profile, and when I Save For Web & Devices, I make sure JPEG, optimized, and convert to sRGB are selected. My Preview is set for Internet Standard (sRGB).
    The images look good in Photoshop and in Windows Photo Viewer, but when I upload them to the internet, they look very dark and hard on the eyes. They look like this when I check them on a Mac. Another weird thing is that when I open the same images in Microsoft Paint, they appear dark aswell, whereas those images looked good in Windows Photo Viewer and Photoshop.
    Help would be much appreciated!

    What version of Aperture are you using on your Tiger system?
    I don't believe gamma settings changed from Tiger to Leopard (gamma 1.8) but they did change going to Snow Leopard (gamma 2.2). Since you're on Tiger, gamma may not be the reason for the difference, but it sounds plausible that you may have some settings using a different gamma in Tiger than on Leopard.

  • HP 6700 Blank screen and blinking lights

    When i start my printer it is showing for ashor while a bleu screen with the code "B814A896". The is get a complete white screen with the text "Turn the printer off and on again" and all lights are blinking. I have tried everything:- Unpluged the powre caple in all possible ways.- Replaced the cartridges.- looked up the problem on internet. I am working with Windows 8.1 and the printer is connected wireles. Please let me know what the best is to do here...Thanks 

    hello ! Thanks for posting on the HP Forums! I should be able to provide some suggestions that may help.  Are you getting an error on the printer or does it just go blank and flash?  The first thing I suggest is to plug the printer into the wall outlet directly if it is currently in a power surge protector or extension cord. This may sound silly but this will ensure the printer is getting full power and may eliminate any unnecessary troubleshooting. If the printer is no longer getting full power from the power surge or extension cord it may give false errors, have poor connection,paper feed issues and quality issues. Here are some settings you can have changed in the router for networking a printer.  You should be able to contact your router company and ask them to make sure: ~ Network name and password need to have NO SPACES OR PUNCTUATION
    ~ Must be using WPA security
    ~ Encryption Type 128-bit
    ~ Dual broadcast Wireless b/g/n (printer will only connect to g)
    ~ MAC filter needs to be turned off
    ~ Multicasting Must be turned on
    ~ Bonjour must be enabled
    ~ Dual band set to 2.4 Ghz
    ~ Correct Wireless Channel (not 1,, 6,, 11)
    ~ Router Firmware Updates
    ~ Firewall settings need to be at there default settings, or set to a lower security
    ~ Following ports need to be un-blocked:
    Incoming (UDP) ports : 137, 138, 161, 427 (iPad 80, 443)
    Outgoing (TCP) ports : 137, 139, 427, 9100, 9220, 9500 (iPad 5222, 5223)  Please post back and let me know how it goes! 

  • My HP Pavillion dv4 has a black screen and blinking Caps and Num lock

    BEFORE anyone says to take out everything and press the start button for however many seconds, i've tried that. I've also tryed counting blinks, but there seems to be no pause in blinks, thus continuous blinking. 
    SO, recently i have updated my laptop, i let it shut off but i did not choose for it to restart. Today when i tried to turn it on, the screen was black, did not turn on and the caps lock and the num lock have been blinking continuosly, without pattern. The touch screen volume and such is also on and after a few seconds the fan turns on. There is no loud beep, just the regular startup soft beep. So, i would like to know, if anyone knows what i can do, before i have to go and pay to fix this thing.

    i have took it to the apple store, i am out of warranty and they said it is a hardware problem, god knows whats causing the black screen it is fine when on as i got it fixed at a local phone shop but when the phone dies then there is no bringing it back to life.
