iPad 3: Why is my replacement screen not sticking properly?

Sat, 09 Sep 2023 12:29:58 -0700

I ordered and replaced my busted ipad 3 glass using the instructions i obtained from ifixit. The instructions were very useful and installation was a breeze. I cleaned all the surfaces that the screen attaches to so the tape would adhere better using some light solvent being careful not to damage any internal components. For the first couple days after the repair all was well. The screen however keeps popping up along the bottom edges and I can not seem to keep it from coming up. I tried using some heat where the tape is and placed some weight on the bottom edge but the issue still exists. Please help. Thank you.

Logitech Slim Folio: Logitech Ultrathin Keyboard Cover i5 Battery Replacement

Fri, 14 Nov 2025 07:55:03 -0700

Has anybody been able to replace the rechargeable batteries of the Logitech Ultrathin Keyboard Cover i5? According to the product info at https://support.logi.com/hc/en-us/articl..., there are no user-replaceable parts, but the user guide shows how to remove the battery for disposal (https://www.logitech.com/assets/49301/ul...). Not sure if you can put the keyboard back together after you "Pry off top cover of keyboard with screwdriver."

iPad 7 Wi-Fi: iPad Won't Charge

Fri, 22 Sep 2023 15:11:25 -0700

My iPad wont charge - it seems to recognise being connected, but makes no difference to battery level. (Just stays at 1-2%). I thought it would be the port, so I thoroughly cleaned it, but Apple store advised its the battery. How difficult is it to change? (And how likely is it they are right - can anyone advise? If not, and it is the USB port, is it possible to change that?)

Smart Keyboard: Not recognizing my keyboard. Will recognize another.

Wed, 25 Jan 2023 07:44:08 -0700

Any ideas as to why my smart keyboard isn’t being recognized all the time? I borrowed a friends and it works just fine. Not the iPad pro 10.5 issue. Possibly a problem with the magnets in the keyboard? It works sporadicly. Don’t want to replace if I don’t have to spend the money. Any advice would be great.

iPad 5 Wi-Fi: Why does my iPad digitizer not wok?

Tue, 06 Dec 2022 12:38:24 -0700

When I first applied it the corner did not work but after that the entire left portion of the screen was not working, I may not go for a refund because the process isn't worth the effort but I will definitely leave a bad rating!

why did this happen?

iPad Pro 12.9" 4th Gen: iPad Pro won't take a charge but otherwise fully functional

Sun, 02 Oct 2022 07:32:05 -0700

My IPad Pro took a static shock I believe and now it won’t take a charge through the USB-C. The iPad worked perfectly in every other way until it ran out of juice. I took it to a local repair place which sent it in to somewhere. They checked something and said since it wasn’t that, they couldn’t fix it. I’m sure I should be able to replace whatever that part is and it should be back to fully functional.

Anyone else ever run into this inability to charge? Is the USB-C replaceable? How would I spot what might have gotten fried? Is there perhaps a better place I can send it to get repaired? Looking for some advice on how to proceed.

I’ve already bought a replacement so I’m willing to explore taking it apart and having a go if there are replacement parts out there for what might be ailing it.

iPad Mini 3 Wi-Fi: touch not working after digitizer replacement

Sun, 25 Sep 2022 09:34:14 -0700

My wife's iPad Mini 3 (A1599) was dropped a few years ago and had a cracked screen. My brother-in-law attempted a replacement but touch never worked. My wife would really like to get some files off the device that are not in cloud storage but I haven't been able to get past the lock screen without touch.

I purchased a new digitizer, installed it and touch still doesn't work. Looking at where it plugs in, I noticed a pin is missing (see picture). Is that likely the issue and is that board replaceable?

The goal is to get some files from the device, not have a working device afterwards. Thanks for any help and advice.

iPad Pro 11": Do you think this repairable?

Sun, 04 Sep 2022 12:26:05 -0700

I didnt use enough heat to get the ambient sensor off and it separated.
I am getting the message that says Face ID cant activate, so I'm not sure if that's because of my installation is not right, or if its indeed because of the ambient sensor?

Can this even be repaired?
Attached is what the separation looks like from the sensor.
