Why is the unlock-screen of my iPad mini showing black or blue lines?

3 days ago, i bought an iPad mini at the apple store. Everything is working perfectly, but ever since I first started it, I'm noticing some black or blue lines at the bottom of the screeen on the unlock screen. They disappear after one second.
I already updated to the latest version, and I did a hard-reset, but this didn't help.
Does anyone know how to solve this?

HI i have the same issue with my ipad mini retina. it appeared too out of nowhere after  more than a month of using it.  my device wasn't dropped or exposed to any liquid substance. At first only a single line appeared and then it grew to this. How did you fix yours? did you return it?

    "Abuse" includes dropping it. If it's not a manufacturing fault: These prices are roughly the same in other coutries to the US.

  • Why is the iCloud icon on my iPad mini dimmed

    Why won't the iCloud icon light up on my iPad mini.  Also when I tap on mail, contacts and calendars in settings all the icons under accounts are also dimmed?
    How do I get them all to light up again.

    Go to Settings>General>Restrictions>Accounts (near the bottom) and set this to Allow Changes.

  • Why is the notification center different on ipad mini and iPhone?

    For instance.. Weather shows in the notification center on ipad mini, and not on iPhone. Also, calculator shows on iPhone control center and not ipad mini. I can understand why the calculator doesn't display as an option for the ipad mini as the calculator isn't installed by default (for whatever reason), but why would weather show up on the ipad mini (where no native app exists), but not on the iPhone?

    Yes and Yes.
    When I navigate to Notification Center in Settings from an iPhone 4:
    Notifications view - on
    Today view - on
    Today summary - on
    Calendar day view - off
    Reminders - on
    Stocks - off
    Tomorrow summary - off
    Sort by Time
    The only apps I don't include are third party and have nothing to do with weather.
    Usually when I swipe down on the Today view it's only giving me the date.
    Thanks for taking the time to help me!

    How to change my iPad mini opening page 4 digit security code

    You can only do that once the iPad is unlocked so of you forgot the passcode, you have to restore your iPad. Be prepared to lose all of your data as well. If you have a backup, you will be able to restore from the backup when you are done restoring the device.

  • Why does the screen on my iPad mini jump around?  Apps open and close, I can't get back to the home screen.  Is my mini possessed?

    Why does the screen on my iPad mini start jumping--larger, smaller--can't close apps.  I reboot and still it happens.  Any suggestions?

    If the unit has NEVER been jailbroke, first try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...  Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

  • The lock screen on my IPad zoomed in on itself. It is zoomed in so far that I can't unlock it, and I can't see the 'slide to power off' option. I've tried to reset it numerous times. Any suggestions?

    Try double tapping the screen with three fingers to return to normal size. If it works go to settings> general> accessibility> zoom> off.

  • Why does the tab bar on my iPad 2 disappear when I swipe down? How can I lock it in place?

    Why does the tab bar on my iPad 2 using IO8 disappear when I swip down? Its annoying. I have to tap the top of the screen to view my open tabs.
    why did Apple switch the position of the bookmarks icon and the favorites icon. Now I tap the wrong one.

    There isn't a setting to stop the tab bar automatically hiding (or I haven't found one), and as to why the icons were moved I don't think that Apple have said. If you want to leave feedback for Apple then you can do so here : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

  • Ireplaced the cracked screen on my ipad 2

    I replaced the cracked screen on my ipad 2. now it will not power up. the home button may be damaged, but every thing else looks fine.

    So, if I understand it ...... you had a cracked screen but the iPad was powering up normally, no other problems known at that time . . . and then you did a home repair, replacing the screen and digitizer and all of that ... and now it won't power up?
    I think you have two options at home, two outside of the home:
    At home, go through the whole process again and see if you can figure out why this is happening and see if you get a different outcome
    At home, just qive it a few whacks and see if that shakes things back into shape (yes, I'm serious, as long as you aren't going to do #1 you may as well do this).
    Outside the home, you can give it to someone else to repair, at some cost TBA.
    Outside the home, you should still qualify for Apple's Out of Warranty service arrangements, which will get you a replacement iPad at roughly half the cost of a new one, the last time I checked.
    Absent any of those choices, I think you have a very trendy looking cheese plate there.

    My new yahoo account nestles comfortably in iCloud on the mine iPad.
    No, your Yahoo account is not in iCloud (which only handles iCloud mail), it is in Yahoo, and the Yahoo mail account is on your iPad.
    But the MacBook Pro will have none of it! I write this question now as I fear that I will be totally demented very soon and unable to formulate my thoughts clearly!
    Get the correct settings for your account from Yahoo and set it up manually.
    By the way, I also find the "password" issue problematical. It seems Apple want my Apple password rather than my eMail password. All very confusing.
    That would depend on what you are trying to do.

  • Why is the sound of my new ipad cutting out intermittently and what does Apple recommend to solve the problem in lieu of any updates?

    Why is the sound of my new ipad cutting out intermittently and what does Apple recommend to solve the problem in lieu of any updates? All of a sudden without changing any settings, the audio on my NEW ipad cuts in and out on applications/ games, keypad noise and lock sounds. The rocker button only seems to work while the sound is intermittently being heard before, after a few seconds of noise not doing anything when sound goes off.
    This is highly frustrating as I've noticed others posting about such issues as far back as April. Anybody had the same thing happen to them? Is this likely software (ios6) or hardware issue? What are the solutions Apple???

    Apple has no physical stores of their own in Dubai, so unless you mean that you purchased from the online Apple Store for the UAE, you purchased from a dealer, who may or may not have been authorized. You can check the expiration date of the warranty on your iPad yourself by entering in the serial number here:
    https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do
    If it does indeed show the warranty has expired, then what you need to do from here will depend on who you purchased the iPad from and when you really did purchase it. Perhaps you actually purchased it in August and are just misremembering? Check your receipt. If you confirm that you did purchase within the last calendar year, tell us exactly where you got it and we can probably offer advice.
    Regards.

  • I downloaded the new os7 on my Ipad mini. Now in order to use the ipad I need to use a passcode. I cannot get pass the login screen and I never set up my ipad to use a passcode. What can I do?

    I downloaded the new os7 on my ipad mini. Now in order to use the Ipad, I need to enter a passcode. I cannot get pass this screen. I did
    not set it up to use a passcode. What can I do? I am not too computer savy.

    I have the same problem. I upgraded to iOS7, entered my usual passcode when prompted in setup, and when I tried to access my iPad after installation was finished it denied my passcode. I can't connect to any internet to erase it or anything because the new iOS hasn't yet been configured to a wifi network, so I can't backup from anything either.
    When I connect the iPad to iTunes, it tells me that Find My iPad must be disabled on my iPad before backup or restore can continue - and I can't access anything beyond the lock screen of my iPad at all because it refuses to accept my passcode, so I can't get to Find My iPad.

    My iPad mini shows 10 updates in the App Store-on the updates icon, but when I click it-the screen is blank. Help!!

    It's a long running glitch, as the hundreds of threads on this topic demonstrate.
    You  can wait it out and wait for Apple to fix the servers or you can go  into your purchased tab and manually download each update (you'll find  the app icons with little update banners on them.
    Alternatively,  if you sync with a computer, you can use the iTunes on your computer to  download the updates then sync them onto your device.
