Screen Randomly Turning On?

Sep 2, 2010

Here's my problem, ill set my iPad on my keyboard dock at night and most of the time right before I manage to fall asleep the screen randomly turns on, fills the room with light, so i get up and take it off the dock. Has happened to me quite a few times, ive checked the connections to the wall making sure they are secure. Sometimes it will turn on even when the dock isnt plugged in. Hopefully someone can give me some tips on how to fix this.

Keeps Turning Off Randomly With No Reason?

Jun 17, 2010

I bought my iPad on the 2nd June 10. From that day, my iPad keeps being turned off randomly with no reason. After putting it at sleep and go on with my bussiness, when I came back to it, I just can't wake it up again, and had to press the combo "Sleep/Wake+HOme" for at least 2 times to turn the device on.

I tried to restore it to factory setting again and again (3 times) up to now and just it doesn't seem to work against the fault.

I brought it to Myer (SA, Australia) (where I bought it) this morning, 13th June 10, and asked them for a replace, but they said I would need to have the Case (Confirmation) number from Apple in order for them to arrange an exchange or refund, etc. Do you guys think that's reasonable?

What should I do now? It's sunday and I just can't ring Apple.

My model is 64gb 3G.

Screen Goes Black Randomly?

Sep 28, 2010

I've owned the 32MB WiFi iPad since around launch and it's been working fine for the most part. Just recently (last couple of weeks) the screen will go black/off randomly, and even after I press the home or sleep button there's nothing but the glow of the backlight. Doing a hard reset can bring the screen back, but then the screen will often shut back down.

It doesn't seem to matter what I'm doing (web, Netflix, Youtube, etc.), although it DOES seem like it happens more often when I'm lying on my bed with the iPad held above me (screen pointing down towards the ground). I've tried completely restoring the iPad and putting on the last backup, resetting all settings (several times), changing the accessibility settings, etc. to no avail. I would appreciate some guidance on other options I can try or whether this is something that others are seeing with their iPads.

I don't really want to go to the Apple Store but I may have to if this is a hardware issue, or a software glitch that won't be fixed until iOS 4.2.

My Ipad 3 Screen Goes Blank Randomly

Jun 25, 2012

I have owned my new ipad 16gb (3rd gen) for 3 months and for 2 months it worked great with only having a couple of crashes, but then the screen started going randomly blank. I thought it may just need a reset but it started doing it again and again no matter what your doing apps video email everything. When the screen goes blank the backlight is still on if you had any sound playing you can still hear it with no image? To get the screen back on i press the wake/sleep button to switch the screen off then the button again to get the unlock screen back, then as soon as i unlock it returns me to what i was doing before the screen went. Its in repair at the moment having just come back from repaire last week but apple repaire couldnt find anything wrong with there service.

Screen Shuts Down Randomly While Using Number Of Apps?

May 25, 2010

I have a 16gb wifi ipad, that I just received a couple weeks ago. I use it mainly for web surfing, pdf reading, and ebook reading. I keep it in the apple portfolio case (the one that has the front flap and can act as an incline).

The past couple of days, the screen has randomly blanked out/shut off. At first I thought I just accidentally set the ipad to auto-lock at 2min instead of 5min, but that was not the case. When I press the home button after the screen shuts off, instead of showing the slide to unlock, it just shuts off whatever app I was using and goes back to the desktop. It has happened while using a number of apps, both native and added.

I didn't see anything exactly like this on the board. Is anyone else having this issue and is there a fix?

IPad 2 Switches Off Randomly - Screen Locked

Jul 23, 2012

I have an iPad 2 16gb Wifi. Just bought a Griffin leather case for it. Ever since I've used the case the iPad will random switch off and go into the lock screen. When I punch my code in it returns to where I left off. I've heard that it could be something to do with magnets in the case, but feeling round I don't think there are any - certainly non that are obvious and hold the cover closed.

Turning Off Screen During Syncing

May 12, 2010

I set up my iPad to sync this morning before heading into work and I didn't realize iTunes had some error and when I got home my iPad hadn't synced (due to the error, something with mobileme) and the iPad screen never turned off all day!I tried to turn off the screen during syncing and the button on the iPad wouldn't respond. Is there a manual override or setting for this? I hate that the screen stayed on all day long.

Turning Off The Screen When Synchronizing With The ITunes

May 7, 2010

Quick question: How do I turn off the iPad screen when synchronizing with the iTunes. Is this even possible? Are there settings I am overlooking? Or perhaps a third-party app which can make it happen?I have a large library and often leave my iPad connected to iTunes for several hours at a stretch. The bright glowing screen can be a big distraction, and, more importantly I am very worried about pixel burn-in.
