And just goole ipad 2 won't turn on.


Texax Mac man offered some solutions in the above threads and he knows what he's doing.


If, when you click on the thread, nothing comes up, open another window, copy the above threads (one at a time,) then paste in the browser and hit go.


Hope this helps.

I got this problem too.


The screen is totally black. You can see it " black-dim " when you turn it Off & On.

You can ear the email tones when I receive an email.


So it's definitvly working ... just show's a balck screen.



So here's what I did (don't get your hope's up .. I'm still stuck).


1- I tried to put it on recovery mode. It does ... but I can't see the usuall iTunes and connector image, I still get a black screen.


2- Rebooted it from recovery, still black


3- Did a full Restore, still black


Now it's totally empty and still the same black screen.


Any ideas ?
