3rd gen iPod Touch touch screen doesn't work after I updated to iOS 5.1?

I updated to iOS 5.1, and now my touch screen doesnt work at all. All of the buttons work, and it responds, but nothing else works. I would restore it but it's locked with a passcode and I can't unlock it without the touchscreen.....I have no idea whether this is a failure is 5.1, or if it's something I did.

Try a hard reset first to see if that does any good.  To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
If no luck with that, you'll need to manually connect your iPod to your iTUnes library in recovery mode using the instructions in the Apple support document below. Doing so will allow you to bypass the passcode and restore the iPod.

    my apple store isn't working after I updated to ios 8.1.3, its just a blank screen and it won't load after doing everything I can to make it work again. I even restarted the phone and I just don't know what to do at this moment.

    Sign out of the Appstore and back in and it should resolve the issue.

  • Just bought a pair of earpods for the shuffle 3rd gen the first the remote doesn't work so i exchanged them and these don't work either! I already checked that they are compatible and should work! Any ideas or advice?

    Hi I recently bought a pair of earpods for my 3rd Gen ipod shuffle only the remote does not work, so i exchanged them from an unhelpful member of staff from Currys who said the problem could be my device.

Will be greatful with any advice or answers on this one. Thanks!

  • Internal camera doesn't work after Firmware Update

    Hi everybody,
    I had some troubles after updating the Firmware to version 1.1 on my MacBook (the black model). Since the update my camera (the one mounted on top of the screen) doesn't work any longer (it keeps capturing a plain green picture) and the led near the camera is always lighted. Is there anyone who had the same problem? Any idea to solve it?
    thanks

  • Touch screen doesn't work after Vista Home64-bit upgrade to Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium on IQ506

    Hello, right before I upgraded to Win7, I made sure that the Touchsmart software worked and that the touch screen itself worked. As soon as I performed the upgrade (not the clean upgrade that wipes all your existing data, but rather the upgrade that carries over your applications and files), the touch screen ceased to work. 
    I didn't panic, thinking that I probably had to run some windows/hp updates, which I did to no avail. I also manually updated ALL the driver/software files found at this link http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareList?os=4063&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us〈=en&product=3752245
    Yup, every single one. As a last resort, I tried some of the HP troubleshooting for touch screens not working. It said to shut down the computer, pull the plug on the computer, hold the power button for 5 seconds, plug the computer back in, and boot it up again. Didn't help at all.
    I'm at the end of my rope and there is no additional HP support on this. I'm waiting for a reliable driver update for win7 for this **bleep** touch screen. I'm dead in the water -- I've got a touchscreen computer whose touchscreen doesn't work! Someone else out there must be having this problem! Any leads?

    Did you try installing the Touch Driver?

  • Touch screen doesn't work after resetting the phone. Could the screen be locked?

    After following the previous  touch screen not working message, I reset the phone but still doesn't work.  Could there be a screen lock?  Or any other way for the touch screen to work?

        Hi there Angelicness3011!
    The touch screen responding correctly is pretty important for you to even use your phone! I'm sorry to learn you've been having issues with it. Let's review some options together!
    You mentioned you reset the phone. Does this mean you removed the battery & put it back in? Or does this mean you able to complete an actual Hard Reset?
    Instructions on a Hard Reset can be found here: http://bit.ly/Q00sJ9
    Your information is generally backed up to Google or Backup Assistant and your SD Card. If possible, please sign in to double check.
    If you're unable to hard reset and removing the battery doesn't resolve the concerns we may have to look in to replacement. Does your phone have any physical or liquid damage? How long have you had your phone? Do you have insurance?
    I look forward to your responses!

  • Ipod doesn't work after firmware update

    I have an old ipod and I tried to update the firmware. After the update It did'n work. ON the Ipod screen it appear like a plug indicating to charge it, but I charged it several times and the result is the same.
    Now i'm trying to recover it again but my computer doesn't recognize it.
    ¿Is there anything I can do?
    Thanks in advance.

    The best place to look for help first is Genuine Apple help directly from Apple.
    Read the iPod Touch Users Guide.
    http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipodtouch
    Also start with the basics from Apple.
    1. *Restart iPod touch:* Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPod touch. To turn iPod touch back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    If you can’t turn off iPod touch or if the problem continues, you may need to reset iPod touch. A reset should be done only if turning iPod touch off and on doesn’t resolve the problem.
    2. *Reset iPod touch:* Press and hold both the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    For more troubleshooting suggestions, see Appendix B, “Support and Other Information,” on page 214.

  • IPod in iPhone 3Gmusic doesn't work after upgrade to iOS4

    My iPhone is very unstable after upgrade to iOS4 and one major failure is that iPod music doesn't work properly, some song (recently purchased from iTunes) cannot be played even if it is in the list. There are a lot of new space in memory after upgrade, seems songs are removed or compressed in some stupid way.
    Spotify is also working like **** after upgrade to iOS4. Also big problems with the phone being slow and hanging in many different kind of modes.
    From being a real iPhone fan, I am very disappointed. Maybe Apple think they are immortal now and think they can release any kind of crap and still keep their customers...

  • HT204291 AirPlay Mirroring doesn't work after last update

    I have a late 2011 Macbook Pro (running mountain lion), an iPhone 4s, and an Apple TV (3d gen). My iPhone and Apple TV work fine together. I can stream video and music without difficulty. My Macbook can stream audio, but since the last update to 5.1.1 I can't mirror my desktop or run video from my Macbook to the Apple TV. The option is there, but the TV screen only changes colors and garbles some text. It mostly looks like a pink and green abstract painting.
    Short of restoring the Apple TV, is there anything else I can do?

    Thanks Brian. I tried using the ethernet cord and it still only works for one account on my macbook - the account that's not signed into the Apple TV.
    Wifi versus ethernet doesn't explain why it worked well before the update, but not afterward. Or why it works when I turn off photostream.

  • N73: restore doesn't work after firmware update

    Hello!
    I just made a firmware update to my N73 with NSU, and the procedure completed with no errors.
    Just before the update I made a backup with the application in the phone menu; the app wrote a backup.arc file in the MMC.
    After the update I tried to restore the backup via the same app.
    Here's the problem: the app seems to work (but the "restore" lasts just 1-2 seconds), the phone reboots, but nothing is restored.
    Googleing aroung I found a solution: buy the Noki 1.7 software, extract SMS, contacts and files from the backup.arc, and put everything back on the phone...
    Is there another solution that doesn't involve buying this 3rd party software?
    TIA

    The phone is working well...
    I have been searching in internet, and there'a a lot of people with the same problem. Everybody tells to use PC Suite to backup... if I only knew before.

  • Flash doesn't work after I updated it

    I am using Firefox 34.0.5 and updated my flash player but after the update it stopped working. The videos doesn't show up. I tried disabling all add-ons and found out that Shockwave Flash 16.0 is causing the problem. What should I do to make it work again?
    I don't know why but some videos work just fine and other videos doesn't show anything even a white or black screen, even though they're from the same site. When a video doesn't show up, the cursor changes from the normal cursor to "working in background" cursor rapidly.

    Hey,
    Did you try these typical Flash fixes?
    (1) Disable hardware graphics acceleration in Firefox and in Flash
    (A) In Firefox, un-check the box here and restart:
    orange Firefox button or classic Tools menu > Options > Advanced > General > "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    (B) In Flash, see this support article from Adobe: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues
    (2) Disable protected mode (Win Vista & Win 7 & maybe Win 8)
    See this support article from Adobe under the heading "Last Resort": Adobe Forums: https://forums.adobe.com/message/4468493#TemporaryWorkaround
    Hope it helps.

    I did both of these but it still didn't work. I tried using another browser and found out that the problem only occurs in firefox.

  • Why the wifi doesn't work after the upgrade to iOS 5?

    The problem is that after the upgrade to iOS 5 the wifi doesn't work. I mean, iPad is connected to the wifi but not to the internet and also the connection on the other device doesn't work. So I had to turn off the router and then turn it on.
