Why is the lock screen wallpaper in my iPad Mini blurry

When the iPad Mini has been off for awhile, when you open the case the lock screen shows but the wallpaper background is blurry.  If I look at the wallpaper setting in Settings, I can view the picture as a wallpaper and it's clear (not fuzzy or blurry).  The only time it's blurry is when the lock screen is on.  Any ideas on why this happens or how to change it?

The lock screen covers the wallpaper. The lock screen is slightly transparent causing a blurred view of the screen beneath. In this case the the screen beneath is your wallpaper. The blurred view is normal.

  • Why is my lock screen wallpaper out of focus

    All of a sudden, my lock screen wallpaper photo is out of focus.  I changed it, and the same thing is happening to the new photo.  What's going on?

    I am confused what device you are talking about. You question is here in the Using iPhone section, but it is marked for your MacBook Pro running iOS 6? If you are talking about an iPhone and you never update your profile to say you are running iOS 7, I would blame the paralax feature that slightly zooms into your picture, making certain low-res photos look extra blurry. Hope this helps.

  • Why is the lock screen message not centered?

    In the Security & Privacy settings, we now have a graphical method for setting a login message instead of having to use terminal. I have noticed an issue though. On the login screen, the message displays as it should, centered on the screen at the bottom. However, at the lock screen, the message is centered but it is positioned at the bottom right of the screen. Judging by the way it looks, I would say it should not do this.
    I was wondering if this is happening to anyone else? If so, I will submit a bug report.

    Yes, I've also noticed this behaviour (in Lion)—albeit not all of the time: sometimes the message is positioned in the centre of the lock screen, but mostly it is positioned to the right.
    In my mind this strongly suggests the behaviour is a bug and I have submitted a report to that effect.

  • Lock screen closing apps - iOS8/iPad Mini

    Since the iOS8 upgrade my iPad mini closes the open app when it auto locks or when I close the cover. How do I fix this undesirable behaviors?

    Hey there Artisansdjj,
    It sounds like your iPad is minimizing or closing any app that was open before you put it to sleep with the Smart Cover, or the Sleep/Wake button. I would start by quitting all the running apps:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it. 
    When you have done that restart the device and test the issue again:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • Why are the videos I take on my iPad mini playing back in slow motion?

    I took a video of one of my tennis students on my iPad mini and when I went to view it, the video seemed like it was in slow motion or skipping frames. It definitely wasn't smooth and in normal time. The strange thing is that I shot the video again on my wife's iPad 2 and it did the same thing.

    If you have a computer, you can import the photos to the computer and then delete them for the iPad. You don't even need iTunes to so this, because you aren't syncing, you are importing.
    take a look at this.

  • Why can't I change the lock screen wallpaper on my new iPhone 3GS

    Same problem here with a 3G. It used to work. Stopped working in 3.1, I updated 4.1, still not working. It's always black (no wallpaper available).
    Prior to iOS 4 there was no way to change the background wallpaper, it was black.
    Only the 3GS and 4 allow changing the background wallpaper. The fact that you cannot change it on a 3G is not a bug, it is simply the way it is.

  • Lock screen wallpaper does not appear in the lock screen

    I just reset my iphone 4 running iOS5 and set it up as a new iPhone.    Everything appeared fine until I noticed the Lock Screen wallpaper I assigned does not appear after I lock it.   The home screen wallpaper does.    I hope someone can tell me how to fix this.

  • Cannot change lock screen wallpaper after 4.4.2 update to Xperia Z1

    So I updated via PCC to 4.4.2 (14.3.A.0.681) and now the lock screen wallpaper is stuck to the "Air" theme wallpaper. Regardless of theme change or attempting to select custom wallapaper, the lock screen wallpaper does not change. I've tried going through the settings menu, the Album app, and the Photos app, but none of them can change the wallpaper. I've tried clearing all data from the lock screen app, force-stopping it, but no luck. Multiple restarts do not help.
    Solved!

  • How to make configurator not change the lock screen

    i manage about 300 ipad mini's for a school district and i use apple configurator once a month to manually update the ios and apps on the ipads. i have a grade level that uses pictures of the kids for the lock screen to identify whose ipad is whose. the issue is when i plug them into configurator to update them it always resets this lock screen, how can i make it so that the lock screen is not effected? All of my ipads are supervised, and i do not have the option of removing the supervision from that grade level.

    If the phone is locked the only call you can place is to 911 (or its local equivalent) without unlocking it.  You can also take a picture, but not review other photos.
