I needed to replace the charging port and when I powered it back on, I noticed the top part of the screen was unresponsive. After taking it apart again I realized I sliced through the top most cable to the digitizer. Is there anything I can do to repair this? Fixed one problem…created another! I was hoping this repair was going to give me a present for my daughter.
Ist dies eine gute Frage?

Unfortunately, like many modern displays, the digitizer (whose cable is cut) is fused to the LCD and the front glass with OCA (Optically Clear Adhesive) glue. It's almost impossible to separate them at home and do a professional job of replacing just the digitizer, so you're looking at the whole display, sorry to say.
Good luck and let us know how it all turns out for you; whatever you learn could help the next person who comes along with the same problem.

Thank you for the response. After looking it over more, I ended up ordering the replacement screen/digitizer. I'll respond back when I get that replaced!
I have done many home replacements before, but these cables were so close to the edge of the screen they were difficult to navigate around. Unfortunately, I knew better than to use a blade but utilized what I had quick and handy. Learned my lesson for next time! =-) My best advice for anyone removing the screen on these ipads, be very careful on the right side of the ipad. All the cables run down that side.
BTW, I love your @name. I am the mom version of it! =-D
