When online in Safari the screen is gray/black transparent. Everything else is OK. Email is fine.
When I try to get online in Safari the screen opens gray/black transparent and I can not get anywhere. Everything else seams to be OK. Email is fine.
Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (and Clear History)
If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

My iPod touch suddenly stopped working. It was fine earlier, but when I went back a few hours later, the screen had gone black and I was unable to turn it on. It is now unresponsive and my computer does not recognize it when it is plugged in. I thought it just needed to be charged but there seems to be a larger issue now. What should I do?
Let your ipod die. Then when it is dead charge it adn turn it back on. After that it should be fine.

When using crop tool the screen goes all black
When I select the crop tool and drag it across the photo to select crop area, the screen goes all black so that I cannot see the area selected or modify its size.
All the boxes (size and resolution) of the tool are clear.
Can somebody help me?
I did try resetting all tools but didn't change anything, I restarted the program, I restarted the computer and is still happening.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.The advice that seems to work most often with this kind of failure is to update your video drivers from the web site of the maker of your video card.
Here are the links to the driver update pages for the two big video card makers:

nVidia: http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us

I can receive calls and messages but cannot see them unless I do a screen shot then load it onto my computer. I have tried turning it off then on and also resetting it without success. It seems to be fully functioning apart from the screen being off. Can anyone help?
Hey NJF7,
Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like the screen is black. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
Display has no backlight or dark screen
Toggle the ringer switch to see if the unit vibrates. If it does, it could be that iPhone is getting power, but is not displaying any image.
Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
While connected to the iPhone charger, try to reset the iPhone.
If the low-battery screen appears, charge the iPhone.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a nice day,

Hey!
when starting my computer the screen is gray with two harddrives. One is named Macintosh HD and the other Recovery 10.9. My computer has never done this before! I am really worrid that my files will be lost if i choose to start the wrong harddrive. Which one should i choose? HELP!!You probably held down the Option or Command R keys when you heard the startup tone. Simply choose the HD. To learn what the Recovery partition is please read OS X: About OS X Recovery

When I put my Macbook Air to sleep the screen often stays black. Who can I stop this? What did I do?
So when I leave my Mac open or even when I close it, the screen often turns black and when I enter or I use my trackpad nothing happens. What can I do about this?
Supposedly there are moisture sensors inside the case that change color when they are exposed to a certain amount of moisture. There does not have to be any other sign of water damage for Apple to void the warranty.
I to have suspicious both ways when someone posts this type of thread. Does Apple do this just to get out of repairing a faulty Mac? Did the poster actually spill something on their computer and just blocks that out of there mind? Did someone else spill something on there computer and never mentioned it, cleaning it up before the owner noticed.
Moisture damage can happen is many different ways. Like so many peopple today they carry their computers in a Backpack. That backpack can get rained on, they carry water bottles in it along with the computer. Since te Air intake is close to the bottom on the unit and the unit does not sit to far from the surface it is placed on any water spilt around it, especially the back of it, can eassily be sucked into the air intake area or water from spraying the screen for cleaning can drip down into that same area and then be sucked into the air intake system. -
I have had a IPad for 4 years, for several months when working with apps, the screen will go black and then return to the home page
Hi sjeure,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. I would recommend restarting and resetting your device to see if the unexpected app closing still happens:

Today I was doing my chemistry homework when all of a sudden my mid 2011 MacBook pro running Lion 10.7.4 started going very very VERY slowly to a point where it was unusable. I restarted my computer and went to type in my password. When I did this, the computer recognized the password and began to boot yet the pinwheel came on and the screen turned gray and went back to the account selection screen. It continues to do this everytime I enter my password and I can no longer access my account. How do I fix this.
You can take some of the steps here, #4, #5 or even trying a #18
Step by Step to fix your Mac
but I suspect your going to first have to create a data recovery drive
Create a data recovery, undelete boot drive
to get your data off the machine,
then do a #20 to eliminate the bad sectors as that's why your getting the "pinwheel" it's getting a delay reading from the drive, right when your trying to log in too, what a bad spot for it to happen.

I got my ipad2 replaced yesterday. And this new ipad started giving me problem by crashing aps. Then I restored the ipad twice but the problem was still there. I called apple and they fixed it by doing Reset All Settings. But now I have this weird problem. When I open Mail the screen flickers random blue and gray appeared on the screen. I took a video too. Will that happen again? Is it hardware problem? This ipad2 32GB was replaced yesterday and I think it is refurbished. Are replace product refurbished?
There is no way for anyone here to know if your replacement iPad is a refurbished unit. Per Apple's replacement policy, replacements can be refurbished units. If you feel the unit is not working correctly, take it back, let them check it out and if found defective, they will replace that unit.

I have followed the steps above for downgrading iCloud storage options, but when I get to the screen to select a downgraded option, the Done button is grayed out and won't let me select a new option. I see a lock in top right-hand corner, but not sure where to go to unlock it.
Choose Apple () menu > System Preferences, then click the iCloud icon.
Click the Manage button.
Click Change Storage Plan.
Click Downgrade Options.
Enter your Apple ID password, then click Manage.
Choose your current plan, then click Done.

Hi, I bought an iPad and was so impressed by Safari that I replaced Chrome with it on my Windows XP Toshiba laptop and now when I use Safari the icons on the screen continue to flicker until I come out of Safari. Is there a cure other than using a Mac
When I use find file http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/30073/find-file (which does tend to find files that "Finder" can't), it's not coming up with any other itunes library files that have been modified in the past week, which I know it would have been - unfortunately, I don't have a very recent backup of the hard drive. It would be a few months old so it wouldn't have the complete library on it....any ideas? I'm wondering if restarting the computer might help but have been afraid to do so in case it would make it harder to recover anything...I was looking at this thread https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4211589?start=0&tstart=0 in the hopes that it might have a helpful suggestion but it's definitely a different scenario.
