1G iPhone 8gb - LCD non-responsive after dropping

Hey guys,
I've got a 8gb 1st gen iphone that I just dropped The glass didn't crack, but there are several cracks underneath the glass. Now, the LCD isn't responsive at all. I've tried to do a restore but the touchscreen isn't functioning at all. The home and lock buttons work fine though.
Any ideas on what I can do to get this going again?
Thanks

Which is fair enough, but it does sound like the "touch" element of the screen is broken and needs to be repaired/replaced.
These things do tend to break easily, remember the first Nokia's, i dropped them heaps of times, when it got scratched, you just got a new cover for it.

IPad becomes non responsive after every file sync

I have a large collection of books and music. My ipod will sync everything without a problem. Every time I try to sync my iPad it freezes and becomes non-responsive after every file. I'll get one file on there and then have to keep clicking to get itunes to respond again. What is up with this?

IMac OS X, iPhoto permanently non responsive after attempted download.

I was downloading about 20 photos and 3 vidios from memory card using the iMac slot. After selecting download for all the new images iPhoto became non responsive and required a force quit. iPhoto now goes non responsive (after about 10 to 15 seconds) every time I start it. The event that would have been created by the download shows but appears to be empty. If there was some way I could delete this event I'm thinking (guessing) it might fix the problem, but have been unable to find a way outside of iPhoto. Thanks in advance for any suggestions. OS X 10.6.8 iPhoto 8.1.2

Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download <a href="http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/"><b><u>iPhoto Library Manager</b></u></a> and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new *iPhoto 08* library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

IPhone hangs and non responsive

Hi,
I need someone to help me figure out what could be the problem with my iPhone which i got on Jan 9th 2009. I understand it still under warranty but i would like to know if iPhone itself is non responsive or its only my phone which doesnt respond sometimes and screen flashes sometimes.
Thanks

HT3302 my iphone 4s is non responsive will not turn on or charge

My iphone 4s is non responsive it will not react to being charged either . I hold down the home button and nothing happends

What to do if your iPhone will not turn on

IPhone 4s screen not responsive after running

After I go for a run, my iPhone 4s screen's bottom right corner is non-responsive until I restore the phone. I have gotten a replacement phone, but it still happens, so I know it must be software. I tried setting it up as a new phone, and loading minimal apps on it, but still having the same issue.
One thing that is peculiar is that depending on the pocket that I keep the phone in, this issue does or does not occur. If the phone is in the pocket that holds it vertically, with little movement (it just fits inside the pocket), it happens every time. If I put it in a different pocket where it sits more horizontal and moves around more, then I don't have the issue.
In addition to the bottom right corner of the screen being non-responsive, there are sporadic and random taps that take place the I don't do. A little poltergeist-acting. random typing, random touches.
Last bit of info is that this has happened with my iPhone 4, as well as now 2 different iPhone 4s's... Wondering if anyone has had this issue, and if there is any
way to find out what is doing it besides adding on apps one by one. That would be a lot of running/testing.
One more thing... Even if I restart it, it still does not work. The ONLY way to get it to work again is to restore it.
Any help GREATLY appreciated.

If restoring as new (no backup retored) didn't help, there certainly is a hardware problem that requires replacement or repair of the phone.
Apple doesn't repair iPhones - you may be entitled to an out of warranty replacement with a refurb for $269 (USA). If the phone has been hacked or abused, you'll have to buy a new phone at full price.

Dead spot on nano 7 the play/pause button on LCD non responsive

non responsive/dead spot on nano 7 the play/pause button on LCD

I was also experiencing this. I'm using a MacBook Pro, and iTunes 7.6(29) in Leopard. Clicking the pause button didn't work, but the spacebar does, as does the remote control.
One thing that seemed to work was pressing forward / backward instead. After I did that, pause button in the mini player functioned as expected, even after expanding to full-size and back, and after starting and restarting iTunes. I have not seen what happens after starting / restarting my machine yet.
Worth a shot, anyway.

TS1382 4th gen iPod nano wheel and buttons still non-responsive after all t-shooting suggestions performed.

Iphone 3GS non responsive after Tomtom use

Hi all,
Used my iphone today with TomTom (Europe) and all of a sudden it crashed in-app. Could not get the iphone to work with a hard -or soft-reset.
When doing a hardreset, the very first startup-screen appears ('connect to iTunes'), the IMEI and ICCID, indacte as 'unknown'. The provider at the top of the screen stays at 'searching'.
When connecting the phone to my PC, the itunes application states that I should unlock my phone before proceeding, but I am not presented that option.
Only strange thing is that my personal startup screen is shown when trying to make an 'emergency call'
Anyone any ideas as how-to proceed?
thx!
Marcel

Try holding down the power and home button until you see the apple logo. It could take a long time, but may work. Have it plugged into the wall charger when you do this.

Iphone 3G's White Screen After Dropping

Hello, I was wondering what to do? Recently, I dropped my iphone on the ground and the screen turned white. I cannot restore it, nor turn it off. Although i have gotten so used to it that i know a lot of tuff and decided to click the ipod button, or at least where it is supposed to be. i randomly started clicking and music started playing. Same thing hen my friend called me. It works. You can hear the sounds and you can still go on apps. But your screen will still stay white. What should I do?

I had the same thing happen about a year ago. Apple basically told me I was out of luck and that my warranty didn't cover it because it had been dropped. It was going to be $200+ to repair it. So I just went onto eBay and bought a new glass screen and new LCD screen for like $40. Fixed it myself with some help from YouTube videos. Very simple, and I've had no experience repairing electronics. I have had trouble with my phone freezing up and such, but I think that's from the drop itself since it was a pretty bad one. Hope that gives you another option to consider if they blow you off.

Iphone 4 is non-responsive

Any Ideas?

You held both home and the wake button right?

ITunes non-responsive after upgrade

My assistant has iTunes on her PC and it has all but stopped working completely.
Upon clicking to launch it takes a good 10-15 seconds to do anything. Then, selecting anything again takes a good 10-15 seconds for a response...
Is there any background process I need to make sure is running? Do I need to make sure she is running the latest Quicktime version? I did a reinstall of iTunes (did a repair actually), but no difference...
Any ideas?

Okay,
I did as was described in the article and it sped up iTunes somewhat.
There is still a very long lag (5-10 seconds) between selecting anything in iTunes and it actually doing it.
I checked and she had neither "keep music organized" or "copy music to iTunes folder" checked, so I checked those and hit okay... iTunes is organizing.
If this doesn't help, then I am planning to backup her library etc., uninstall iTunes completely, reinstalling iTunes, and restoring her library.

Pretty much non responsive after close to 4.5 years... Any suggestions?

I've owned by PowerBook G4 since Aug 2004, and it has served me pretty well. I had a battery change since my battery was one of the recalled ones. It was working fine up until about last month, when I started to notice that it was taking unusually long amount of time to execute simple tasks such as opening Safari, or playing videos.
I know that I cannot expect top notch performance since it's close to 4.5 years old, but if its taking me close to 10-15 minutes just to boot up, enter my password to log in, open up Safari, go to Google and search for something, there is clearly something wrong. I backed up most of my music, video, photos and documents to an external drive recently and tried to clear out much of my hard disk as possible and it showed a little improvement, but about 2 weeks ago, it started being cranky again. When I connect my iPod to load songs, it takes forever for it to recognize, only for it to freeze. First the cursor doesn't respond, then it becomes the rainbow circle, then just stops.
Anyone have any clue as to what could be causing this? Would it help if I back up the entire disk and reformat the hard disk?
Also the new batteries aren't working out too well, if I don't leave it connected to the power supply, the battery doesn't last beyond 15 minutes before it goes off to sleep mode.

HT6030 Mail is non responsive after installing Mavericks

Installed Mavericks one month ago and Mail has been acting weird. After looking at emails for a while it gets to the point that clicking on an email doesn't open the email or clicking on a different folder doesn't open that folder. When I open mail now, no emails show up in the preview. Can't click on anything.

I just installed the Mavericks Mail Update in the Apple Store and it resolved this problem.
