I don't think you can remove it without damaging your screen. You have already damaged the screen by spilling glue on it. Apple doesn't repair iPad, so they can't help with this other than to offer an out of warranty replacement at about 60% of the original cost of the iPad or if you purchased AppleCare+ when you bought the iPad and it's still valid a replacement will cost $49. Otherwise, you may just have to live with glue on your screen.
The use of strong solvents, such as Acetone, should be avoided. These solvents can cause irreparable damage to surface coatings and finishes, not to mention their affinity for seeping through seems. iPad is not resistant to liquids of any type.
Immediately after you use the nail polish remover to clean off all of super glue, use a warm water damp, but not soaking microfibre cloth with a little dish soap mixed up in the microfibre cloth and carefully clean off your iPad's screen, carefully avoiding and cracks and buttons.
If you do the acetone route use a q-tip and do your best to keep the chemical only on the super glue and keep it off your screen as much as possible. If you get it thin enough you may be able to get your fingernail under the edge and pop it off
My daughter got some super glue on the screen of her iPhone 7. A web search suggests using a number of glue removal products, such as Goo Gone. I purchased this product and tested it on regular glass, but it did not remove the glue.
Have you tried a dry cleaning solvent such as naphtha or isopropyl alcohol? I would turn the phone completely off and use the mildest applicator possible (cotton swab to q-tip). This method is not approved by Apple and any damage is your responsibility.
You will need an iPad adhesive kit. However, if you need to replace the thin inside plastic frame (I've melted one or two with my heat gun when removing glass) order a roll of 2mm, 3M adhesive, it is sticky on both sides. It also comes in handy when you need a little piece for iPods/iPhones.
The glue used to hold the iPad II front glass actually a really nasty adhesive tape. You could try to use some original iPad adhesive tape, but I cannot guarantee that it will work. You could always acquire your own blank adhesive tape, and cut it to fit with an exacto knife.
I have been repairing iPads, iPhones and all kinds of devices in between. In the begening, the 3M tape would not do it. Either use double sided RED TAPE which works wonders and you wont have your customers coming back saying that their iPad screen is lifting off and also whenever you repair the iPad 2,3,4 allways buy the plastic bezel plastic frame and install that first to ensure a proper fit.
One more trick that i use on stubborn fits is a product called GLUE DOTS from your local Arts and Crafts (Michaels) or whatever. That works great and allows for re-entry if you mess up the first time. Never use Crazy Glue or Gorrila Glue.
I have to look at the box but they were the rectangle very flat ones that come on a roll in a purple box. Double sided Red Tape works very good also. You can buy it from Etechparts, or Wholesalegadgetparts.com
But before doing that clean and scrub off any and all old adhesive residue, and then I reassemble heat it up with a heat gun and clamp between two pieces of woods for a day, and after that holds as good as factory
I have a very large BIM model and my field guys are having trouble viewing the model on their ipads. There's not enough memory and the file size is too big. Is there a way to reduce the file size of the model so that they can view the model on their ipads? Any suggestions would help. Thanks!
3. Turn off any applications running in the background of the iPad. Currently, iPads have only 1 GB of RAM, a portion of it is already allocated for the iOS. Applications running in the background will also use up some of the RAM available for the iPad. To turn off applications running, double-tap on the Home button it will then display all applications running. Swipe up on the apps to turn it off. You may swipe up on multiple apps at the same time.
4. Internet connectivity can also be a factor when opening models using the iPad app. It is better to open or download the models in an area where the internet has a large amount of bandwidth and the network is less busy. Models can be viewed offline after the initial download.
Also, try deleting all imported AutoCAD linework from your models that are to be uploaded and then purge everthing and compact it down whilst saving the detached model. The file will more than often half its original size. Then only upload.
Last but not least, if your device is closeby to the wireless router on site, it would help! As Frederick said, if your bandwith is low, then it would decrease the speed at which your model is streamed down from these Amazon servers to your iPad device.
If your iPad received a very strong signal from its default internet provider, it would be an idea to turn off the wireless and then 'force' the iPad to use the that default service provider. It worked in my case.
I have had similar issues at our office where we work on very large projects. We split up the models by bldg using COINS auto section box tool. What I have done is place scope box around each bldg or area that I want to section out and use COINS auto section box to create the 3D section of that bldg or area. Each bldg is put on it's own individual 3D view and named correctly so I can Glue them as separate models. I then can merge all the consultant's models (MEP, Structural, Fire, etc) into a merged model along with my architectural for each bldg.
Please let me know if this is sounds right to you to optimize the ipad performance any other recommendations. I created a BIM 360 Glue best practice if you would like to see more details on exactly how I am handling very large projects so they can be viewed on the ipad app. Thanks for your help.
Yes, Splitting the model by Buildings / Zones / Floors is definitley the way to go. My field guys are much more efficient. Especially since saving views per floors doesnt work with the Saved markups/views issue.
Is there anyway to view 2dCad content in the nwd model on the BIM 360 Glue app? I was having the issues others were having with the app crashing and noticed that deleting 2dCad content from your nwd helps with preventing crashes. The 2d content in my case is the only way to see the playing field markings so its critical info that is lost. Plus the 2d cad helps visualize the room names in our navisworks models.
Begin heating the glue around the top and cutting it with the razor. Be careful with the razor around the lower left hand corner of the iPad, as this tends to be where the AirPort and Bluetooth cables are located.
After the broken glass has been pried off, leave it connected to the iPad and remove the four screws holding the display in place. Once the screws have been removed, you can move the display out of the way and remove the two connectors attached to the broken glass.
The Stack Exchange sticker on the back of my iPad had been there for over a year and a half, and it was time to retire it (for a new one, of course). I carefully peeled it up, and put it in a sticker graveyard.
But left on the back of my (formerly) pristine iPad was a light colored, sticky residue. It seems like I can get it off slowly by rubbing it with my fingers (smearing it into little balls that could be pulled off), but I only got about a square inch of it gone before my fingers started hurting.
Go to the store and buy some product that will work, but since that is not a real answer and most products apparently don't work that well: The best fix is Alcohol. It is everyday and simple and I have proven it to work.
While Goo Gone can take down any residue with a few strokes, I've found that it leaves its own oily residue behind that's just as hard to remove as the original glue (and forget about washing it off your fingers). If you're willing to take an extra 60 seconds or so, vodka will save you the hassle and leave you with a clean, shiny finish when you're done. Of course, if you don't have any vodka handy, you can always try a pencil eraser too.
Create a mixture of equal parts baking soda and cooking oil. Put the mixture on top of the label you want to remove. Wait at least 30 minutes. Then, scrub off the bottle and the glue is gone. Finally, wash the bottle to remove the oil and baking soda.
This technique can take a while to completely remove the adhesive residue, as some residues can be very stubborn. But I like it because it doesn't involve chemicals (alcohol is a solvent and could ruin the coating on certain surface types), and there's no risk of scratching the object's surface. It also won't leave "rub stains" that some other techniques will leave.
What should work for sure is applying heat. Glue dissolves if confronted with heat. That means pointing a hair dryer on the spot with the sticky residue should get it to "melt" and become easier to remove. I would therefore warm it up like this and rub off the remains with alcohol afterwards.
And of course I do realize that not every device lends itself to head. So under no circumstances should you ever put any device like a mobile phone or an iPad into a microwave. That can be dangerous. That should be logical to everyone. So under no circumstances should you ever try to back or cook a device. It might remove the sticky clue but it would also totally destroy your iPad and possibly even get the microwave to blow up.
Keep some lacquer thinner on hand (can be bought at any hardware store). It is a strong solvent for thinning (obviously) and removing paint, but it works fantastic on adhesives as well and will not leave a residue. tip some onto a paper towel. be careful if the surface you're using it on is painted. the adhesive will come off easier than the paint, but if you're not careful that paint will come off eventually.
