TS3274 My iPad screen won't work, please help!

My iPad comes up with a black screen but when I press the lock button twice a blue screen appears with a faint outline of my wallpaper/time/notifications. I have tried resetting it and turning it on and off but nothing seems to be working. I'm travelling overseas next week and I really need my iPad PLEASE HELP!!!!

Try this  - 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. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • Blackberry screen won't work, please help!!!

    I turned my blackberry on yesterday, the usual blackberry loading bar came on then when it came up with my home screen it didn't do the usual "verifying software" thing and instead it just came up straight way with a notification saying "application terminated: share_impl_snake had been denied the cross application communication" I know this notification is for a game I downloaded ages ago but revoked it from accessing my device. Anyway when I went to press okay it wouldnt do anything. The buttons are all working fine though because they work when I press them to stop the screen from going dim. But thats all they will do. I have tried EVERYTHING, please help, I can't use my blackberry at all!

  • My iPad screen won't work

    I have an iPad 2 and recently it has stopped working all of a sudden. When i press the power button on my iPad, it turns on but it is just a blank screen and when i turn it off it flashes white. Sometimes when i turn it on my wallpaper flashes on the screen for a split second but goes right back to the blank screen so i know that the screen isn't broken. I have tried charging it, holding down the power button to shut it down completely and I've tried holding down both the power button and the home button, nothing works. When i try to sync it to iTunes it asks me to type my passcode in on the iPad but i can't because it won't work.
    Any ideas?

    Hello Nathan_J_M,
    Thank you for choosing Apple Support Communities. i am very pleased to help you.
    Reset to factory settings via recovery mode
    So, what you'll have to do is enter recovery mode and fully reset your iPad. Yes, you will lose all your data, but it's better than buying an iPad and wasting a hog lots of money pit. If you have a backup, it will be great.
    Entering recovery mode:
    Force your iPad to shut down. Press and hold on both power button and home button at the same time until your iPad turns off. Now, follow my steps:
    •1: Get your PC/Mac ready
    •2: On that PC/Mac, make sure you have the latest version of iTunes
    •3: Connect the large end of the charger in the computer, but not the small end. (Connect this end to the computer:)
    •4: Open iTunes on your PC/Mac
    •5: Now that you're on iTunes, get the small side of the cable (the one to connect to the iPad with) and get ready
    •6: Press the home button on your iPad, while your pressing the home button, plug in the other small part of the iPad quickly to your iPad. Keep pressing the home button to your iPad until you see this:
    You are now in recovery mode. Restore your iDevice to factory settings. If you have a backup, restore your iPad from that backup or you'll lose everything on that device. Sadly, if you don't have a backup, everything will be gone, that includes photos, apps, contacts, etc.
    for more information on how to enter recovery mode on your iPad, go here: If you can't update or restore your iOS device
    Regards,

  • TS3274 My iPad screen won't rotate

    Please help, I have an iPad 2. My screen won't rotate, I have checked the settings & also the lock on the bottom bar but it's still not working????

    Check a number of other topics related to this question - causes include hardware lock (with the rotation / mute switch), software lock (music controls) or possibly an app issue - see this discussion https://discussions.apple.com/message/19636641#19636641 in particular for details on different possible causes as well as links for further information (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085 in particular). If the usual solutions don't work, it may be worth looking into newly installed / updated apps that may hijack the rotation lock as I've just come to experience myself.

  • TS3274 My iPad screen won't rotate.. I have unlocked  at the volume button and on the multi task bar

    Why has my iPad screen stopped rotating?  I have tried by using the mute button to unlock.  It says it is unlocked. But it won't rotate.

  • Automatic Update Won't Work, Please Help!

    Please help. I have the new 5G iPod and it has kinda been working fine for me. Everytime I go to plug it into my computer, the automatic udate won't start. The little iPod icon in the corner won't show up and when I go to pref. and click on iPod it says there is no iPod connected. I tried to restart the computer and iPod and plug it into a different USB port but still nothing works. I know I have new songs on there that I want to update on but the "Do not disconect" screen won't even come up. Any help would be great, thanks! =)

    Try this:
    Create a new user and make sure it is an Administrator account. Download and install iTunes.
    If it installs properly, log out and then back in as you.
    Uninstall iTunes using the method in this article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
    Then install from the link in my previous post:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1615
    Have you been having problems with your laptop before this?
    You can always try a system restore too if the above steps don't work.
    Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Restore > Next > pick a restore point (you will get later dates if you check the "Show more restore points" box) I would go back at least a couple days > Next > Finish. It may take a while then it will reboot. On reboot it will finish the restore so it may take longer than normal to boot. This will not change any of personal files, only system and program files.

  • I have a 6gb micro and it won't work, please help

    first off, the thing worked fine for the first day! i used microsoft media player to sync some songs to it without installing the software. well, the battery died, remembering it only has a 2 hour battery life! thing is, it wouldn't charge when it was hooked up the computer, it wouldn't even recognize it, so i called customer service and after an hour of being on hold, the lady tells me to install the software and it would work fine. when i did that, guess what, it didn't! it did the same thing, it wouldn't recognize the player and the player would not charge. i would think it was the usb cord, but the battery gets really hot, but the thing just won't turn on and the computer won't recognize it! please help me!

    It's strange. How did you even manage syncing without installing the software on your computer - i mean, the computer has to recognise it before it can start processes.
    Nevertheless, here is a thread which might prove to be useful in making your player recognized: http://forums.creative.com/creativel...message.id=723

  • Audio Won't Work PLEASE HELP!!!

    I imported a video into iMovie and when I play it the sound wont work. The audio boxes on the clip bar are checked and everything but there is no sound. Sound works in iTunes and other applications but not iMovie. Is it because the video tape I recorded with is an HD video tape? What do I do? Please help ASAP. Thank you!

    Hi mgoldenberg - welcome to Apple discussions!
    Frankly, I do not know why. I cannot imagine it is because of the tape. Does the sound play OK on the tape within the camera? The volume slider below the imovie screen is at the far right? Does an imported song play OK within iMovie? You have not inadvertently muted the video clips by dragging the volume down - can be done in two ways:
    1. by clicking on the small speaker icon at the bottom of the iMovie window and dragging down the vertical slider.
    2. Going View>Show Clip Volume Levels, and dragging down the thin line that appears through the clips.
    Are you using an external drive to store your projects - if so it must be formatted OS Mac Extended and not for Windows.
    Maybe you should try repairing permissions:
    Applications>Utilities>Disk Utility - chose the startup disk, and click 'repair permissions'.
    If that has no effect, then try this:
    Find and delete this file after closing iMovie:
    Users (you)>Library>Preferences>com.apple.imovie.plist
    Let us know how you have got on.

  • Ipod Won't Work Please Help

    My ipod wouldn't work at all so i sent it in and they sent me a new one. I thought yeah now itll work but boy was i wrong. It wont get formatted for Windows. The updater does not work and i uninstalled it and then reinstalled it but nothing. It automatically goes into disk mode and when i try to charge it the folder with the exclamation point. Please help me

    First of all, try another port on your computer. Some ports are not connected direct to the motherboard and do not recognize the iPod as well as those that are.
    Still no joy, see these.
    Your Windows PC doesn't recognize iPod.
    iPod appears in Windows Explorer but does not appear in iTunes.

  • Maverick update now my login screen does not work please help.

    Hello hope you can help.  I have a 24 inch Mid 2007 Intel iMac.  It has been great until now.  I recently did the Maverick update and now my login screen does not work.  When I wake the computer up the screen appars with my picture icon.  When I click on it nothing happens.  If I click on it a second or third time the beach ball appears and nothing happens.  I have to shut the unit down with the power button and when the unit powers back up everything works normally.  Are there any suggestions out there?  I have updated the software without resolution. Is this computer too old?   Do I have to buy a new one?
    Thank you

    Your iMac can support Mavericks according to the requirements > OS X Mavericks: System Requirements
    Try a Safe Mode boot. That deletes some system caches that may help.
    Startup your Mac in Safe Mode
    A Safe Mode boot takes much longer than a normal boot so be patient.
    Once you are in Safe Mode, click Restart from the Apple () menu.
    See if there's an improvement for the login screen.

  • ITunes won't work, please help

    Hello Apple Discussions. I've been having trouble with my iTunes account. Every time I try to open the program it tells me that an error has occurred and has to close. I've been reading through what other people have tried to get around this problem, and this is what I've tried so far. I tried checking the disk, nothing. I tried opening the Quick Time player and I'm getting the same message that a problem has occurred and has to close. What do I do? Please help. Thank you for your time.

    Thanks, scotty!
    ModName:ntdll.dll
    The Quick Time player is a BEX error.
    I'm afraid that malware is the worry with that ntdll.dll/BEX combination, scotty. (Often people who get it also can't get their Adobe Reader to launch either, although that symptom isn't universal.)
    I'm not sure which particular beast (or beasts) is the culprit at this stage, but the free version of Malwarebytes has been doing a good job of fixing it for a lot of people.
    Download and install Malwarebytes from the following page. Update the Malwarebytes definitions prior to running a scan with Malwarebytes:
    http://www.malwarebytes.org/
    If the Malwarebytes scans pick up infections could you let us know what they are called, please?
    If you remove the infections, can you get your iTunes and QuickTime launching again?
