  • 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.

  • Why wont the new version of aperture work with Nik complete software. I uninstalled and re installed Nik and it still wont work.

    Why wont the new version of aperture work with Nik complete software. I uninstalled and re installed Nik and it still wont work.

    I believe that Nik is having trouble adhering to Apple's "identified developer" requirements.
    there is a FAQ on Nik site regarding problems with their installers.
    a guess.

  • Why wont the share to youtube videos work on other ipad or iphones

    many of my projects that i share to youtube are not playable on other ipads or iphones, i thought they used to play fine, but recently none of my movies work on youtube...

    The share feature of the iPad or the share link inside of FaceBook?
    You can't use the iPads share feature from FB, only from content that is on your device.  From FaceBook, save the picture to the iPad.  Then with the picture open, you can share it with iMessage, Twitter, eMail, FaceBook and a couple of others.
    If the FaceBook app isn't wotking correctly, first try to shut it down, then restart it.  If that doesn't work, try a force quit of the app. 
    Press and hold the sleep/wake button until you see the red slider.
    Next, press and hold the home button until the screen returns to the app.
    When you let go of the home button you'll be returned to the home screen.

  • Why does the screen on my IPad 3 go blank before it allows me to "slide to unlock"?"

    I recently bought the iPad3.  When I turn it on, I see the home screen and the "slide to unlock", but I can't do anything until the screen goes blank.  Then I have to press the home button and the "slide to unlock" becomes accessible.  Is this normal?  Thanks!

    I found apple service by calling number on the new ipad manual that comes in the ipad box. At the end pages of that manual there is number for support and service. You can also try to learn service number from the store you bought it. Or you live in a country which has Apple Store, give it to them to test it.
    I thought it was a software issue too. I'm good on using software. I struggled a lot to find the trick. I searched net about it and saw it happens with ipads, iphones, android phones, generally touch screens. Don't accept ro reset your device advice if it is repeating.

  • I have a second gen ipod nano; The screen doesnt work but it will still make the clicking noises and it is recognised in itunes? why wont the screen work?

    HELP

    It's not designed to work like this. When you sync, the iPod stores some information that basically says 'this iPod belongs to computer xyz'. Apple did this to prevent copyright issues (syncing someone else's music).
    If you really want to do this, you'll have to at least tie both iTunes installations to the same account. Maybe have them sync with each other.

  • Why do the screen controls suddenly stop working?

    All of a sudden, my Acrobat X Standard software stopped allowing me to combine PDFs. The front window still opens when I double click the Acrobat icon,. but  all the interactive choices are dead. I can still use the menus. But once I load files to combine, none of the controls work. And yes, I uninstalled and reinstalled the entire software package. Any help?

    Assuming you mean that you performed the repair yourself, it would seem that you either obtained a defective screen or you did some sort of damage when you replaced the screen. You can try asking for assistance on ifixit.com, a site dedicate to those attempting their own repairs, or you can take the iPad to a shop and pay them to try to correct the problem for you. Apple will no longer touch your iPad now that you've attempted your own repairs.
    Regards.

  • I fainted and fell while holding my iPad and the screen cracked; it still works fine. It's just cracked. I have had this iPad for less than a year so it is still covered under warranties. Does this apply? If not how much to fix the screen?

  • Why are the apps on my IPad scattered across the whole thing and when I open them they turn to little rectangles in the corner of the screen and I can't even use them or tap on anything. Also when I turn my iPad it doesn't flip the screen over

    Hi The next thing to do is to Restore back to Factory Settings this will get rid of any bugs . After Restore use same Apple ID /Password then you should get all your Apps & data back If you still have this problem make an Appointment at Apple Store . Cheers Brian

    What country are you in ? The price for repair (i.e. replacement) for the iPad 3 and 4 appears to be around the €300 mark
    If you select your country at the top of this page, then select the 'Warranty & Service Pricing' section on the left of the screen, and then 'My iPad is not eligible for warranty service' section on the right, you should be able to see the price in your country.

  • Why is my ipad keep restarting almost every 5 minutes and also why is the screen not rotating.

    why is my ipad keep restarting almost every 5 minutes and also why is the screen not rotating.

    Nobody here can answer a question like that. Try rebooting your iPad and see if that helps.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • HT201317 I had my photo stream on and my icloud all set up, i just had the screen replaced and they somehow lost all the photos off my phone, but why wont the photo's reload back on to my iphone now that im connected to wifi again, where are all my photos

    I had my photo stream on and my icloud all set up, i just had the screen replaced and they somehow lost all the photos off my phone, but why wont the photo's reload back on to my iphone now that im connected to wifi again, where are all my photos???

    When photos are added to the photo stream album on a device (either due to a new photo having been taken or having been synced from another device using the stream) they remain in the album.  However, the syncing process involves copying the photos to the photo stream server where they are kept for a maximum of 30 days, up to 1000 photos.  If a device is reset or the stream is turned off or turned back on again (or in your case, the device was repaired), the photos that were on the device's photo stream album are gone and the only ones to appear are those that are currently on the servers (recall the 30 day limit).
    If some of your photos are older than 30 days, then they are no longer stored on the cloud and hence are not synced down to the iphone.
    Recall, photo stream is just a syncing service, it is not designed as a storage service for photos.  Always sync photos to a computer for archiving.
