My iPod touch wont turn on..but the buttons dont work

When the buttons broke it was still working,but i had to turn it on with a charger. But now when i plug it in nothing happens!!

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
When it says place the iPod in recovery mode use one of these programs:
For PC
RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
If necessary:
Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
For MAC or PC

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Exporting a pdf in indesign CS5 interactive portfolio, the buttons dont work?

interactive PDF using Indesign, Export problems
im working on an interactive portfolio, its got 6 pages and four of them have buttons which scroll through alternative images which relate to that page. All very simple stuff. as far as im aware its all set up properly and in preview its working like a dream. As soon as i export > adobe pdf (interactive) > i tick buttons and media Include All but when i open the finished pdf i wont let me use the buttons. they are acknowledged by the fact that when i hoover over them there is a tin black box that apears but the actual button its self wont work.
if anyone knows how to export such a file so i can share with people as an interactive portfolio i would be most grateful. thanx

Or, better than that, export the PDF from InDesign as PDF/X-4!
By default, Acrobat and Reader use overprint preview when displaying PDF/X-4 files. Plus you have the benefit of full color management and not having transparency ruined by premature flattening.
One other note. Other than for the fairly common practice of overprinting black text over colors to avoid halo effects due to registration, one should be exceptionally careful in using overprint. Trapping, the other good, justifiable use for overprint is really best performed by the RIP. Most modern RIPs provide for automatic trapping. Overprint should absolutely not be used as a “poor man's transparency,” especially in conjuction with spot colors. With the advent of real transparency in the Adobe imaging model and hence in Illustrator, InDesign, and PDF, there is no good reason to use overprint hacks anymore to simulate transparency.

I have the exact same problem. I noticed this started after some windows update just prior to upgrading to Windows 7. And then it got worse after the upgrade.
I'm having to go into the task manager and end the smartmenu.exe application just to stop the nagging volume bar across the middle of the screen and just to use the computer, but the Volume still jumps around rapidly.
Please, HP read this and help.

NONE of my buttons work. i can't do anything!!! only the on/off and lock/unlock buttons work.
i've tried reprogramming it, turning it on and off... nothing works.
it really sucks, i've been going to so many nokia care centers and they've been making me go around in circles.
i'm gonna try again tomorrow. it's really hard because my messages come in but i can't do anything. i can't read any of them! i can't even read my contacts. i can't even back up the info stored inside because it requires me to press buttons!!!
For your case the nokia care centres are the main help source for you. It's very sad they are circling you around.

Hi. The buttons and wheel of my iPod 4th generation do not work. The hold button resets the iPod, and the shuffle shake works. The music plays by shuffling but I can't access albums etc due to the buttons and wheel not working.

Did you restore from backup?
Next would be to restore to factory settings/new iPod since maybe you have some corruption in the backup

I bought a mic for my ipod touch 2nd gen and the mic works yet when its plugged in the speakers dont work, meaning i cant hear, so skype and other similar apps are un-useable, is there a way in which the mic and speakers will both work together?

Looking at the details for this mic, it appears that the app has to have the option to use the internal specak when a mic is plugged into the headphone jack. Specifically:
NOTE: When MityMic is plugged into your iPod/iPhone you won’t be able to use the onboard speaker for sound output. You must remove the MityMic then play back your recordings. (The Skype app has an option to enable the onboard speaker even when the mic is plugged in, so you could use MityMic for placing Skype calls. However most other apps do not have this function.)

Power & volume buttons dont work

I purchased a used Ipod touch 4th gen for my stepson. I was told the top button doesnt work & I was thinking that was ok so I still took it. Went to set everything up for my stepson last night & the volume buttons dont work either. Can someone please possibly help me!?!? Yes, thats what I get for buying used but was trying to do something good for my kid.

- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB 4G and $99 for the other 4Gs. They do not fix yours.

Flash buttons dont work in Dreamweaver Preview

I have made a intro using flash catalyst. I can preview in internet explorer using flash catalyst and everything works great including all button actions taking you to a different url. I then publish to my website: I added ALL the exported webfiles into a folder in dreamweaver. I than placed the main.swf on a blank page. It views perfect in Internet Explorer, Chrome, and Firefox. The up and over state of all buttons works, but when you click the buttons that are supposed to take you to another URL nothing happens. The buttons that change state do work completely however? I also opened the html file included from flash catalyst and it views fine as well, with the same result the url action buttons dont function.
Thanks for any information I am new to dreamweaver.
Andy

Hi toodoo, What version of the flash plugin are you using and can you please provide an example url where this does not work?
To make sure it is not an add on preventing the button from working you can also try safe mode.

Volume button dont work correctly

Hello,
I have iPhone 4S on 5.1.1 which I bought in September last year.
Yesterday when I listen to music with my iPhone I found out the the MINUS volume button dont work correctly.
It's need to push him hard to decrease the volume. however the PLUS volume button work correctly.
In addition there is no "click" sound when I press the minus volume button.
what should I do?
I live in ISRAEL and there isn't Apple Store here so the only solution for me is to contact the carrier which I bought the iPhone from them but they probably will require payment for the repair.

sorry but i actually need to use the volume buttons Jujusoccer11
i've tried resetting already and restoring from back up already but still has the same problem lllaass,
i'll try restoring to factory defaults now, i hope it works

Ipods automatically have a one year warrany unless you have violated the terms. But you can pay to extend the warranty. It depends, they may fix it for free or they may charge a bit. Im not entirely sure. But id say theres a good chance that they may fix it for free. With battery replacements, ive heard that they give you an entirely new ipod with a charge of $80. So i think it depends

The buttons dont work on my ipod!!
