Cannot SCROLL on click wheel. :(

iPod (40 GB Click Wheel)- I've reseted it already.
Have had this ipod for about 2 months.
Got from apple store NEW. Because of broken one I had.
Only used it about 20/25 times.
I can click ...but can't scroll.
Therefore, I can't hear anything, because I can't make it louder, and I can't get into my songs..
Only my first playlist because that requires no scrolling DOWN.
I've resetted it like 10x.
And i've plugged it back in my computer.
And i've updated my itunes.

I read old posts and saw onethat problem was moisture. That post suggested using hair dryer to dry out the wheel. I tried it and it works; IPOD works perfectly now. Mine had quit working while I used it during sweatty work out--so moisture was the problem.

  • Then the screen goes gray and I cannot scroll or click on anything

    When I google something via safari I get the google options but my screen is gray and I cannot click
    on anything or scroll.  I have turned it on and off several times.

    Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (and Clear History)
    If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • How can I scroll down the top menu list and then the sub-menu lists when the iPod click wheel is broken?

    I have an iPod Classic 4th Generation and my click wheel connection is broken and so does not work. I can still play music on my Bose dock station but I cannot choose which album I want to play because I cannot scroll down the playlists.  I can just play the first tune in the list or from where I last paused a tune. Is there a way to scroill down the list, including the top menu list, without using the click wheel?

    Index Values, I think, is the property you are looking for.  Set the index to 0 to be at the top.

  • Cannot sync iPod with click wheel to iTunes...

    I cannot sync my iPod with click wheel to my iTunes on Windows. I have already attempted the five R's, multiple times, including restoring my iPod three times, and updating my iTunes software. But when I plug my iPod in, it takes forever to be recognized by iTunes, and just sits there, whizzing and clicking, with the "Do Not Disconnect" message blinking. After awhile, iTunes will download a song or two from my library, then quit. I often get a message that says my iPod is "corrupted." Help! How can I get my iTunes library back on to my iPod?

    I am having similar issues. I have received lots of advice, none of which work so far but there is lots to try here. Good luck!

  • I have to double-click on the apps, Siri talks about each movement like it is a tutorial, and I cannot scroll

    I need help resetting my phone.  For some reason I now have to double-click on the apps, Siri talks me through each move like it's a tutorial, and I cannot scroll on the phone at all.  How do I get out of this?

    You have VoiceOver activated. Triple click on the Home button to turn it off.

  • HELP-40GB i-pod with scrolling click wheel

    ok first of all, i got this new computer. I dowloaded itunes onto it. I want to plug in my i-pod into my new comp but im afraid that all my songs will be deleted. I have all my songs on my other computer, but the other computer isnt working. I also need to plug it into the new comp because a little folder with the ! comes up every once and a while. Also, my i-pod begins to play a song then it stops and it goes to the next song, this is related with the menu icon and the !. Now all of a sudden i press the MENU button and the apple logo pops up then it just turns back off. WHAT DO I DO? i want to keep all my songs, but at the same time im afraid that if i plug it into the new comp all my songs will disappear. Also why is my i-pod just shutting off when i turn it on?
    I-pod with the scrolling click wheel   Windows XP  

    The first thing that anyone is going to suggest to you in respect of the folder and ! error is to reset your iPod and/or restore it. Restoring the iPod will erase anything that's stored on it and return it to factory settings. You may not have any choice but to do this.

  • Why does my click wheel not advance but it does scroll

    my click wheel works, but not completely. see it turns, so i can lower the volume, rate the song or even advance the song. but when i want to skip, replay or use the menu, it's not working right. i have to use my fingernail (and it's hard on the nail polish ) and push at the very edge of the wheel and the ipod itself. and then i might have to do this 5, 6, 7 and even more than 10 times. this is for all four functions, even pausing it takes effort.
    i like to alternate between my playlists, so i need the menu function and sometimes i like to replay the song (i write while i listen to my ipod and need to repeat it). i have the latest software, the latest itunes, recently i restored my ipod to it's factory settings, but still this has not fixed it.
    i am not working right now and can't afford a repair or a new ipod. other than the music not advancing and such, my ipod works fine.
    it's almost like the circut board inside has shifted, that when i push on it, it's not connecting. but the scroll is fine.
    any suggestions on how to fix it?

    Open a new window or tab. In the address bar, type '''''about:config'''''.
    If a warning screen comes up, press the '''''Be Careful''''' button.
    This is where Firefox finds information it needs to run.
    At the top of the screen is a search bar.
    Type '''mousewheel.enable_pixel_scrolling'''. Its current value is '''False'''

  • I phone 4 has changed settings to require double clicking to open applications and cannot scroll the screen anymore.

    My I phone 4 was working okay for the 4 months I had it, then all of a sudden the settings changed.
    I now have to highlight an item and then double click on it for it to open. It's impossible to try typing anything.
    I cannot scroll the screen either, so when I open the settings app, I cannot access anything beyond the item (brightness & wallpaper) at the bottom of the screen. The phone also now reads out what I'm highlighting and other times like when the screen dims or closes (it tells me that the screen is dimming or closing.)

  • In Logic X, the mouse click wheel scroll is way too fast on the arrange window and the piano roll.  Is there a way to adjust this?

    In Logic X, the mouse click wheel scroll is way too fast on the arrange window and the piano roll.  Is there a way to adjust this?  This is the way I scrolled for MIDI editing on Logic 9

    Hi cris2121, assuming you're using a mouse from apple, go to >System Preferences<
    it's here where one can configure a mouse device.
    Additionally you can also configure Scrubbing in Logic: "When in scrub mode, you can slowly move the playhead in the Tracks Window and the Audio (and optional MIDI) will be played back. The playback speed depends on how fast you move the Playhead in either direction."
    Have a nice day!

  • I run Firefox 19.1 on Windows Vista system. Firefox has worked very well until the past two weeks-now access too fast to click on drop down menus&cannot scroll

    Same as question. Cannot scroll down Bookmarks, etc.

    Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

  • Click wheel scrolling

    Why does click wheel scrolling on an iPod not allow lists - songs, artist, album, etc. - to rollover from end to beginning and vise-versa? For example, it would nice while scrolling through an alpha list of album titles, you could go from "A" items backwards through "Z" items, instead of going all the way through the alphabet from "A" to "Z". Will this ever be allowed?

    Apple likes to add little annoying things so that when they release the new ipod they can solve it on purpose and people will be like YAY!! thats probably what that is

  • Ipod 20gb click wheel Cannot reformat

    I bought a used ipod 20 gb click wheel and I have only been able to get it to work by letting the battery run down and recharging through the outlet . Then it works just fine. If I hook it up to the computer not only does the computer not reconize it, but the ipod freezes, shows the file, or does other unhappy things. Right now it is frozen in 5in 1 . (It passed everything I think). I want to reformat but if Ican't get the computer to reconize it how can I do that. Itunes doesn't show it, ipod updater doesn't show it. I don't have the disc.Going crazy!!!Any info needs to be detailed- I saw one that talked about reformatiing with the disc from my computer refomatting discs- but how do I do that if my computer is not showing this thing! HELP AND THANKS

    The folder with an exclamation point is often a software issue on the iPod. The best troubleshooting step for this error is to restore the iPod.

    If it still is not working after the restore, you'll probably need to set up a dispatch at the following website.

  • Is there a trick to using the center of the click wheel on my ipod nano 5th generation?

    I just bought a used (only 5 hrs playtime) from someone and I cannot get the center of the click wheel to pick up my touch very well...it takes forever to scroll thru and its frustrating! Is it normal for it to be that difficult to use or do I just need to get used to it?

    It is not normal, there is something wrong with the click wheel.

  • Click wheel no longer works

    Hey guys,
    The other day, my click wheel just completely stopped working. I got it for Christmas '04 (Suffice to say, I'm disappointed that it hasn't even lasted two years yet). It is a 4th-gen 40GB black/white display. Prior to it completely not working, only the bottom right "quarter" of the click wheel would not work (play/pause and ff worked, sliding my thumb around did not move the cursor). However, now I cannot scroll around at all. It appears to work somewhat, as when I move it sometimes, the volume on a song will go up, though at a rate that would probably get to full in 50-60 years.
    I know for a fact it is not frozen (or on hold ;p) because it will turn off and on. Furthermore, anything that requires a press works.
    I've tried everything except for restore it, and if that's all I can do aside from send it into Apple, I may end up doing that, since it's useless to me if I can only play track 1 of 6500. ;p
    Any ideas? Is this something apple can fix/replace?
    Thanks so much for any help,
    Ted

    Any suggestions?

    That is a hardware issue.  Take the iPod Nano to an Apple store or an AASP.  Whichever is more convenient for you.  If you want to DIY - iPod Repair Tutorials
