Hello. I dropped my ipad first gen from my chair, about 2 feet above the floor. The screen went black and I can't turn it on again. I have tried holding both buttons down at the same time, but nothing happens. Any help?

You will probably have to contact Apple for repair but before you do try this:
Turn your iPad upside down on your lap and give it a hard smack on the back.

HT4623 I installed ios7 on my iPad 2 yesterday, this morning it wouldn't open the weather channel app. I thought maybe I should power it down. When I held down on the power button the screen went black and now it won't do anything. What do I do now?

Try a reset: Press and hold both Sleep/Wake and Home buttons until the Apple logo appears.

Then all of a sudden I was trying to use a game application and the screen went black and there is a white cursor which I can move around, but I can't escape it. When I restart it seems okay and I see my main screen, but only for a second and then it goes black again.

Your iPod has dropped into Recovery mode. You'll need to restore it via iTunes on your computer.

I have an iPad 3 model A1416 16GB. It is about 1 1/2 years old. When I opened it today the screen for my password came up and then before I could enter it the screen went blank. I can not get it to do anything now. It had about 24% of charge left. I plugged it into the charger and still nothing. What do I do? How do I get it to work?

Try the following:
1. Reset
Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple logo
2. Restore:

Just tried to update iOS 7 to my Ipad two then it went black and it seems to be locked up, and it won't hold a charge. What do I do?

I have been having trouble with my iPad 2 lately. I went and down loaded iOS 7 and installed it. Then when I came back it showed the low battery so I figured that the update just drained my battery. I plugged it into the charger and after a while it just showed the apple logo. Then when I came back to look at it it again was showing low battery even though it was on the charger the whole time. It seems to be stuck in a cycle of low battery and the apple logo, and it just can't seem to break that cycle. I need all the help I can get. Any suggestions?

Did you ever get a solution from anyone about your charging issue?

HT1267 my iphone was charging and then the screen went black and wont turn on and tried resetting it...what can i do??

my iphone was charging and then turned off and vant get it back on and tried resetting it with the home button...what can i do??

iPhone User Guide
Try this...
Turn the Phone Off... ( if it isn’t already )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...
Turn the Phone On...

About a week ago, water got into my headphone jack of my IPhone 4s and it was working fine for a few hours but all of a sudden the screen went black and I can't turn it back on. I put my phone in rice for a few days but the screen is still black.

However, I took some screenshots and when I went to upload the pictures to my Mac, the screenshots uploaded. So I believe my phone still is working but the screen is just not turning on. I tried holding down the home and top button for ten seconds, even longer, but nothing occurred. I am hoping to find a possible solution so I do not have to buy a new phone. Thank you!

The backlight burned out from getting it wet. You will have to replace the screen at a 3rd party shop, buy a screen and replace it yourself, or make a Genius Bar appointment at your nearest Apple Store and do an out-of-warranty replacement for $199 USD.

How can i fix my iphone 4s ? the screen went black and wont turn back on.

ugh

Hi sandy,
Have you tried a reset? Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time for up to 20 seconds. Hopefully the Silver Apple will display, which will mean the phone is resetting (no data will be lost). As soon as the Silver Apple appears, release the buttons, and wait until the Home screen comes back on.
You should be OK after that.
Good luck!
Cheers,
GB

When I added a new contact the screen went black in contacts. I'm not able to access my contacts now. I turned the iPad off and back on, still onlythe black screen appears.

When I added a contact to my contacts, took a picture and added Ringtone, pressed done, the screen went black and I am not able to access contacts. I turned off the ipad but still cannot access contacts.

I don't fully understand what the System Reset does but I've found that it cures many ills. It's easy, quick and harmless:
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.
A System Reset does not remove any apps, music, movies, etc. nor does it cause any settings to revert back to default.
Also, you might wish to download the iPad-2 User Guide. Pay special attention to page 162. Note that this Guide also applies to the iPad-1 with IOS 4.3 except for those functions that are not supported by the hardware.

Finally, the User Guide can be downloaded at no charge via iBooks and a less comprehensive version of the Guide is included as a Safari bookmark.

I downloaded the latest iOS7 to my iPad and then the screen went blank and would not respond. I have tried pressing the two buttons together and briefly get the Apple logo but still can not restart, the logo disappears. I have tried connecting to my iMac to restore the iPad but the device does not show up (I have an old iMac). What else can I do?

You need to be running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 at the very least in order to sync your iPad with iTunes so you could update your Mac, if it can be updated, and if you care to do so.
If that's not an option, you will have to find someone that can restore the device for you with their computer running iTunes or make an appointment at an Apple Store and ask them to restore the device for you.
I hope that you have an iCloud backup, because you will lose everything on the device when it is restored.
Snow Leopard can still be purchased in the U.S. Apple Online Store.

Also, I would not give up on the reset technique....holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time until the Apple logo appears. It takes about 10-15 seconds and sometimes just a little longer to get the logo to appear.

TS3274 I updated to ios7 on my ipad and the screen went black and willnot turn back on. I can hear Siri when I press the homebutton to activate that but I can't see any thing.
