What can I do about my FaceTime screen turning green and then freezing?

My screen for facetime freezes and then turns green

I (& my brother) have the same issue when facetiming my sister. She's got an iphone 4s (updated to the current iOS) & my brother & I have iphone 4. The call connects, we see her for a couple of seconds, then it goes all blocky & green screens & drops the call. My brother has also tried on his ipad & gets the same issue, only it reboots the ipad (but it doesn't seem to do that with our phones).
Have had a quick look online but haven't found anything.... only a video that someone posted (which shows what I've described above!)

If anyone has any ideas.... I'd be greatful (& so would others I'm guessing)
Cheers
Edit: (also, videos & pictures outside of facetime are fine!)

  • IPod 5 screen turned green and then turned off.

    I was using my iPod touch 5 and the screen started turning green and thin black lines were appearing. The screen turned black but the iPod was still on. I used the reboot to try turn it on again (home and on/off button pressed together) and it turned off completely. I left it for the day to cool down, because it was really hot suddenly. When I tried to turn it on again, nothing happened when i tried pressing home button, holding the on button and the reboot. Please help!

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable                     
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. The hotness suggests a hardware problem

  • If i go to high res (720p or higher) my screen turns green and the video fast forwards to the end.

    Hi,
    I have windows 7 64 bit and use mozila firefox 15.0.1
    I have got the problem that when i select higher resolution in videos (such as on youtube) that at 480p it will run for a while but then just stops even though the buffering is already complete.
    If i go to higher resolutions like 720p or 1080p the video will run for a while again but then the screen goes green and the movie fast forwards to the end preventing me to watch movies without problems at higher res.
    If u want more information about my problems or know a solution pls tell me.
    Manny thanks,
    Avalondra.

    Could you try temporarily disabling protected mode to see if that makes a difference (instructions towards the bottom of the FAQ linked below)?  I'll circle back with our video team to see if they've made any progress with this issue.

  • My ipad screen turned green and pink

    my ipad screen turd green and pink help me plssssss.
    i restart my ipad2 it dosen't work

    Hey jedivan27,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are having display issues with your iPad 2 and you have already attempted to restart it. To completely isolate the issue, let's try resetting your device as well:
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
    If the issue persists after a reset, let’s see if we can isolate to software or hardware by backing up and restoring your device as new:
    iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
    After erasing and setting up as a new device, your device is now in a factory configuration. Test to determine if erasing and setting up as a new device resolved the issue. Content on the device may have caused unexpected behavior.
    If the issue is still present, you may want to contact Apple Support.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • Itpod touch screen turns blue and then white and wont turn on

    all of a sudden my screen went white and then blue and unable to turn on my ipod touch.Tried again and it started going black and red vertically . then the screen stays blue. have tried to restore 3 times know. nothing has worked?what wlse should i do.

    start up from the System DVD and use the disk utility app from the utilities menu at top of screen before the system installation. Repair the disk and permissions (will only repair permissions for Apple software, not third party, but it'll address the system components which may need it)
    If that doesn't fix it, then boot up from the DVD again and this time reinstall the System software (be sure to check the options to keep user so you don't overwrite all your personal data).
    Another option is to restore your entire system from a time machine backup that was made when your computer was working fine (ie: the day before this started). Problem eradicated.
    This assumes you have an external hard drive set as backup disc and are using time machine. If you aren't, you should be.
    Also, for the moment, remove all items from the auto- startup-at-login list in accounts prefs.
    Also remove all hardware peripheral devices except the power supply and assess whether the issue still exists when nothing extra is plugged in. Temporarily turn off the airport card and bluetooth too for the same test. If no change when all these things are disconnected or turned off, then you will have narrowed down the issue considerably and reinstalling the system software will probably do the trick
