Frozen and unresponsive touchscreen

iPad was working fine. All of a sudden it stopped responding and the touchscreen won't repond. On-screen slider doesnt work either. Tried restarting, charging, and restoring. Fully charged. Screen is active (it shows mail updates that come in), but won't respond to my touch. Sent it to iPad support last week. Came back working fine and with a letter saying that the symptoms were not able to be recreated. Now it is doing it again. Any idea on how to fix this issue? Like I said, its fully charged but I've tried charging, hard restart, and restore via iTunes. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

If you've already had an issue with this, I'd make an appointment and take it into your local apple store - while it's messed up - so that they can diagnose what's wrong.
It looks like you've tried all the user fixes so it's time for the pros

    Basics from the manual are restart, reset, restore.
    Try all of these.

  • HT201263 Frozen and unresponsive iPhone 4.

    After 2 months my iPhone died. It is frozen and unresponsive .  When I connected it to MacBook, I didn't see neither "Connect to iTunes" screen according to suggestions, no the device  appears in iTunes.

    Hi Laiurb,
    Have you tried a reset on your phone? Hold down the Home key and the Power button at the top at the same time and continue to hold both of them down until the Silver Apple appears (ignore the red slider). Once it comes back up, see if your issues are fixed.

  • Dashboard frozen and unresponsive

    I've been getting frequent warnings that the Dashboard Client has unexpectedly quit, but Dashboard itself continued to work until yesterday. Now, however, it doesn't respond - it's frozen at 2pm yesterday according to the clock.
    I've trashed the dashboard plist and dashboard client plist from Preferences, but to no effect. The dashboard plist recreates itself, but the dashboard client plist does not recreate itself, so there is no longer anything there in Preferences for me to trash in this respect.
    Any suggestions (other than trashing plists)?

  • Ipod Touch Frozen and Unresponsive, not recognized by Macbook

    My Ipod Touch suddenly froze and stopped working. I have a black screen, tried the Ipod "reset" by holding both buttons for at least 10 sec. The apple symbol comes on, then the screen goes back to black. Tried this both connected and not connected to my MacBook. Ipod is not recognized when attached to USB by Itunes or MacBook. I downloaded the current version of iTunes with the same results. Please help.

    I would try and put the touch into a recovery mode.
    1. Start iTunes
    2. Unplug the touch and try to turn it off (hold the sleep/wake button until you see the red slider and turn it off. This may not work so go to step 3)
    3. Hold down the Home button and, while continuing to hold the button down, plug the touch USB cable back into your computer.
    4. Continue to hold the button down until iTunes responds with "an iPod has been detected in Recovery mode". Follow the onscreen instructions and restore the device.

  • I have had FF 6.0.2 crash my PC (blackscreen, pc is frozen and unresponsive, requires hard reset) several times in the last two weeks. Ironically, it did this very thing while I was registering in order to ask about this.

    I also have had FF close and reopen with the little pop-up about restoring or starting a new session.
    I have been using FF since v1, and never have I experienced this issue.
    I do not know what other information to provide, but if anyone is willing to help, I will provide any necessary details.

    Having disabled hardware acceleration (Tools>Options>Advanced>Browsing), I have not had a crash although it has only been two days.
    Hopefully this fixes it and it will work for the others who are having the problem.

  • TS3274 when accesssing my gmail through desktop icon, the gmail is frozen and unresponsive to all activity.

    How do i unfreese the application from the desktop icon.
    If i access gmail through safari it is working

    Try closing the Mail app (or third-party email appif that is what you are using) via the taskbar and see if it works when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the email app '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 email app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work also do 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.

  • My Droid Maxx is frozen and unresponsive.

  • Dock Becomes frozen and unresponsive

    i have no idea how this happens. i usually have dock hiding on and when i went to the dock it wouldnt go up. i turned hiding off and turned it back on and i have tried other varieties of things. help me! what do i do?????

    Go to the Applications -> Utilities folder, open 'Activity Monitor', click on 'Dock', and click 'Quit'. Tell it to do a normal 'Quit', not a 'Force Quit'. If it doesn't come back within a few seconds, go ahead and do the 'Force Quit'. That should fix it.
    (Note: If you're not 100% sure what you're doing in Activity Monitor, don't go mucking around.)

  • Iphone frozen and unresponsive

    All of a sudden my iPhone screen went black, except for the top row that shows the time and battery life. When I try to shut it off it does not respond to my finger sliding the 'power off' bar, but it does respond to my finger touching it when it dims to go to sleep, and I tap it, it will light back up.
    I can't restore it because it is jailbroken and I use it with t-mobile. Any tips?

    Press and hold your top button and home button till you get the apple logo.
    This will give it a hard reset.

  • IMovie Frozen and Unresponsive

    Hi,
    I started a project and began working on it. Around 2 seconds in, it froze. I restarted iMovie and started over with different clips, but from the same event. (This event was clips off of KeepVid.com from a youtube video of my friend riding her horse. KeepVid usually does not cause problems for me, so I don't think this is why but just so you know) After restarting, iMovie froze again around the same time. It's done this before, and usually making a new project and restarting it works. It didn't work this time, and for three hours new projects, deleting the event, and restarting the computer have not worked. How can i fix this, or do I need to go in to the apple store?
    Thank you very much

  • Ipod touch is frozen and the home/lock button combination does not reset it

    The ipod is not responding. I tried holding the lock/home button combo for more than 30 seconds. The screen will go turn all white then all black every five to ten seconds during the reset procedure. I hooked up to the PC and it did sync with computer. Since the display does not work, I cannot do anything else with the ipod. Please save me. My daughter is very upset. 
    I updated the OS very recently and I am sure it is the latest but I cannot see the ipod. Itunes says it is current though.

  • TS1906 Ical frozen - blank screen, no data and unresponsive buttons

    After installing the last update, Ical is frozen - its shows no calender data, and the buttons for day/week/month don't work. I restored the calender data from my last time machine backup, after which it worked for the first time I opened ical. The next time I opened it, I was back to square one - no data, and unresponsive buttons (also not able to change the view over the top bar menu) and then I even got a blank screen (where the calender data should be).
    Luckily my data still shows on my iphone and on my google calender. Its only on my Mac (version IOS 10.6.8) that Ical (version 4.0.4 (1395.7)) isn't working. I believe this is a bug of the actual Ical software, rather than my data.
    Anyone have similar experiences, or an idea of how to fix this? Thanks.

    I had the same problem with my Radeon Mobility U1.
    The solution is to downgrade the xf86-video-ati driver to the version 6.7.195-3 and it should work flawlessly.
    Make sure pacman and/or yaourt don't upgrade this driver inadvertently to this latest, buggy version, until a fix is released.

  • Touchscreen became very laggy and unresponsive...

    Hi Everyone,
    I would like to know, if there is anyone out there who has the same problem as mine?
    I owned this Ipod Touch since last November 2008, the first generation Ipod Touch in Malaysia. It was such a great ipod, whereby you can online anywhere at anytime via the WiFi hotspots available. The whole point of me buying the ipod is because it is a superb mp3 player with internet enabled ability. Not to mention the flawless and easy to use touchscreen.
    After awhile, recently, the ipod touchscreen somehow became very laggy and sometimes unresponsive, especially when i want to browse through mails. I wasn't sure of whether is it because of the amount of mail i had in my ipod which made it became heavy and unresponsive when i tried to browse through emails. But i am sure it is NOT supposed to be like this, right?
    I had to press several times and simultaneously pressing the home/ on-off button to make it awakes. Not sure of whether is there any similarity incident happened to any users? kindly share and advise a way to resolve this from happening.
    Deleting the mails couldn't resolve this issue as i had tried with no good result. The lagginess is still there...
    Thank you.

    try working through the troubleshooting steps listed here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipodtouch/troubleshooting/ipodtouch/
    this will resolve any (and many) software problems that you may have. if that doesn't fix it, it's almost certainly a hardware issue, which will require a trip to apple to get it looked at.
