Yet another iPad mini screen problem

I have a screen issue with my iPad Mini WiFi, i searched the forums but I couldn’t find anything related to my problem.
There are times when I unlock the device (manually or with the smart cover) which the screen gets messed up at the left side only, kinda scrambled and distorted almost like when you try to switch a higher resolution to a monitor and it doesn’t supported.
I don’t know how else to explain it so i made a picture using Photoshop since i can't take a picture: http://i43.tinypic.com/ddkpqr.jpg
When this occurs it goes away after 1 second but it’s happening more and more often now. Could be this a hardware problem?

To answer my question, i found this topic that looks a lot like my problem only in smaller scale: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2497498?start=0&tstart=0. Looks like a hardware problem after all

IPad mini screen problems

A section of my brand new iPad minis screen keeps going blank, black or extremely pixelated though the screen sensor still works in that area. It used to come and go but currently it seems to be permanent. What to do????

Doesn't matter where you bought it, it's still covered by Apple's 1-year warranty.
Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

IPad mini screen problem

A small part of my iPad Mini screen is unresponsive. that part is like a horizontal strip ran acrosa my iPad. sometimes it magically heal itself but most of the time it is unresponsive.

The only thing I can thing of remotely similar is in Guided Access where you can turn off parts of the screen. Next time it happens try triple cloicking the home button to turn Guided Access off. If triple clicking doesn't help it sounds like time for a visit to the Genius Bar at the Apple Store.

Yet Another iPad Wi-Fi Problem

So, I'm having the famous iPad Wi-Fi issue everyone else is. I've tried everything that people have said, yet YouTube rarely works. Some days, it works perfectly, though a little slow. Other days, like today, it doesn't work at all. What's the problem here?

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

How do i fix a scratch on iPad mini screen?

IS there any product I can buy to repair a small scratch on my iPad mini screen?

You can either put a screen protector over it and ignore it, pay the $219+ for an out of warranty replacement or if you have apple care plus, cash in one of your $49 dollar accidental damage events and get a replacement.

My ipad mini screen is broken

I lent on my ipad mini screen in the bottom corner and now there are loads of vertical and horizontal lines on the screen which block the view. Would this be an LCD replacement or external glass replacement. Does anyone have any experience of this and how did they fix the ipad.

It will cost you approximately US$250.00 to US$300.00
Apple will replace the entire iPad; they don't repair.

My ipad mini screen will not slide to unlock

My IPad mini screen will not unlock. It was fine one minute and the next, I couldn't slide it to unlock it.

Does anything happen when you touch the screen, the slider doesn't get a box around it (which would indicate VoiceOver being 'on') ?
If not then have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

If you have done all of the above i would call Apple care or setup an appointment at a Apple Store for them to diagnose and replace.

Hi Deeveeay,
Try resetting the device (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). When the Home screen redisplays, see if the issue has resolved itself.

Why is the ipad mini screen so delicate I just got my ipad mini yesterday and it fell of a stand I bought and now the screen is cracked

why is the ipad mini screen so delicate I just got my ipad mini yesterday and it fell of a stand I bought and now the screen is cracked

My Ipad 3 is the same, it must be a design fault cuz I dropped a pound coin on my ipad screen and it shattered and every other week there's a new dent or scratch, though I wouldn't say I'm overly rough with it. I use it a lot, like most do, so accidents will happen and Apple hav to allow for that. I deffently wouldn't say that they are worth the money for the amount of trouble they cause, they r great devices, just far too delicate and expensive!
