Why does my iPad screen move

My iPad screen recently started moving for no apparent reason it is not continous but it happens often enough

What screen are you talking about? Home screen? App screen Any screen?
Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).

Why does my Ipad screen keep freezing even after rebooting

My ipad screen keeps freezing and remains stuck. So in the last hour this has happened 3 times after hard "reboots". Can someone explain whats going on? Uwas not downloading anything ..only looking at Facebook.

Hello, Nina1711.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Try closing all open applications in multitasking and power cycling the device. Test the responsiveness of the iPad after processing these steps. If the issue persists, check to make sure you have space available on the iPad in Settings/General/About. If there is no space available you may want to remove unwanted Apps or media as this can cause the unit to become unresponsive. If these steps have been processed with the issue persisting, you will need to restore the device. Make sure to backup the device prior to restoring.

Why does my iPad screen suddenly go black?

While using my iPad (original, wifi only) the screen will suddenly go black and my only recourse is to push the home button and start back there. If I am in the midst of writing an email it is lost.
Is there a cure for this malady?
This occurs mostly in either email or the browser bcause these are the apps that I use 95% of the time.

Might try posting in the MacBook Pro laptop forum. This is the Mac Pro desktop forum.

Why is the video screen black for me? FCPX

Why is my screen where the video is saposed to be playing black with a multicolored grainy looking box in the top left hand corner of it for Final Cut Pro X?

"I suspect you simply didnt wait long enough for youtube to fully process the video before you watched it."
Incorrect. After I uploaded the second video, I went to sleep, without watching it once.
So if I set the 2nd video to low resolution, would it end up looking like the first video? Because I still think the first video has better quality.

Ipad Screen Black but can still hear locking sounds etc.

i just got my ipad today,and i was playing a game then right in the middle of it the screen goes black but looks like its shut down ive tried everything to get it to come on an nothing. i dont know if the screen has went out or what. any suggestions on how to fix this problem? and i purchased it somewhere they don't take returns. so please someone help.

Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank power On again in the normal way.] It is absolutely/appsolutely safe!

Ipad screen black out with sound

My iPad which has been working well until yesterday. All of a sudden the screen just went black. I can see the faint backlight when I press the home button. It makes the "charging noise" when it's plugged in. I know it's working and charged, it's just that the screen isn't showing anything.

Try doing a hard reset: Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/wake button simultaneously for about 15 seconds and release when the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't solve the issue, you could also try backing up the device and restoring the device as new.
In that case, follow the steps in: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
NB: set up as a NEW device because a software issue will be in the backup. If the issue persists after restoring as new, you should offer the device for service.
If you're not able to restore the device, this one might help: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
Using his article will erase everything on the device, so make sure you have a backup!
Good luck

Why does my iPad screen goes blank

Just bought my iPad 3, screen goes blank frequently, even after rebooting and /or closing and opening app? Any ideas?

It goes without saying that it should not do that. What exactly though does "it goes blank" mean? Do you get a white screen, a black screen? What is a blank screen?
If you just bought it, contact the store where you bought it and explain the situation ... return it. Or contact Apple phone support. It's free for the first 90 days.

Why does my computer screen black out

Re: Forums
I'm using an Hp Pavilion Slim Line s5260f desk top pc. I have posted this thread several weeks ago. It seems that I loose my screen on occassion while I am operating my computer. When this happenes the computer blacks out and my screen turns into a very dark shade of blue almost black. Having to force shut down the computer to turn it on again. In the past I have changed my monitor which worked for a while. Another time a short while ago when this happened I unpluged the power chord and the chord going from my monitor to my tower and plugged them in again which worked for a while It has blacked out again. I am asking if anyone has an idea of why this happens on occasion so I can try to address this issue be it now or the next time it happens. I am also hoping that I have posted this question in the proper catogory in the Hp forum. Thank you Jerry.

JrJerry,
Is this the Nvidia driver update that failed to install? It should install.
Working on instructions for event viewer (event viewer may be a dead end) but could you send a screenshot of Device Manager?
Go to Control Panel - Device Manager. Then use Microsoft's snipping tool.
It should look like this ( image ).
I am interested in the display adapter. This image is an example of a system with no device errors.
Please open an admin command prompt. Then enter this command: sfc /scannow
One last thought, roughly when did you purchase your system and when did this problem start? If the system was fine until recently and the Nvidia drivers (software) are corrupted then a restore should correct the problem. I would only suggest this course of action after all else fails, especially not being able to update the Nvidia drivers. If the problems remains after a restore then it is hardware or heat related.
We may have to restore the system back the factory image. Did you create an HP Recovery Disk set?
Make sure you back up all important data as a system recovery will reformat your harddrive and, in the process, erase all data and programs you have installed since you purchased the computer.
If we can't solve this problem maybe one or more of the other very knowledgeable forum members can assist.
One last point, in an earlier reply I had suggested you try DVI if currently using VGA and vice versa. This was suggested to eliminate a possible flakey input-output vga or dvi port connection to the mainboard. This would indicate a mainboard failure. The only solution would be to replace the mainboard with the same type (correctly tatooed HP) mainboard. It may be cheaper to replace the system if this is the case.

IPad screen black how do I fix it?

How di I fix a black screen on my IPad?

You can try to reset it, see if that helps. Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds or so. If you see a silver apple, let go and let it reboot.
