  • My iPod touch screen got wet and now it won't register any touch.

    I had just gotten out of the ocean and when I went to check my texts, my hair dripped a bunch of water onto my iPod's screen. I wiped it off, but when I tried to scroll through my inbox it didn't register. I was able to get it to turn off, but it took a while to get it to register.

    Place the iPod in a sealed container of uncooked rice for five days or so to dry the iPod. Then try resetting and restoring the iPod.
    One concern is that even if it works for awhile the salt water may cause corrosion of interns and cause the iPod to not work later.

  • My iPod nano 5th generation got wet and now the backlight is so weak I can barley read anything on it. Also, it won't turn on unless it is plugged in (i.e. to a stero or my Mac), so i cant listen to it anywhere but in my house! Help!

    If the iPod is defective and not abused Apple will exchange it at no cost under your warranty.
    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • My iPhone4 got wet. And now the home button doesn't work.

    Today it was raining and my iPhone4,which was in my pocket, got wet. And now the home button doesn't work. What should i do to fix it?

    I would place the iPhone in a big bowl of white rice, rather than in a baggie.  That's what my brother did with his iPod touch that got wet, and it fixed it.  The iPod touch works perfectly fine now, and the bowl is better because while the rice soaks up any wetness or condensation, the openness of the bowl gives way for evaporation.
    A good idea would also be to take out your SIM card, if at all possible.  Put it back in when you're ready.

  • I accidently "x" off the download of firefox 4 before it had finished and now the home page doesn't work, i tried redownloading firefox but that didn't work is there a way i can resume the download?

    I accidently "x" off the download of firefox 4 before it had finished and now the home page doesn't work. it loads but then wont let me search from it? i tried redownloading firefox but that didn't work is there a way i can resume the previous download?

    Your More system details list show that you run the latest Firefox 4.0.1 version.<br />
    You can check that via Help > About Firefox and on the Help > Troubleshooting Information page.
    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.

  • Upgraded to iOS7 on my iPad Mini and now the mute button doesn't work

    I upgraded to iOS7 on my WiFi only iPad Mini and now the mute button doesn't work.   It toggles between Ringer on and off and of course, there is no ringer on my WiFi iPad. Same thing happens in the control panel when I switch functions and try to mute the sound there.  It used to toggle between Volume on and off.  Anyone know how to fix this?

  • My ipod got wet and now the screen does not respond to touch

    i droped my ipod touch in some water and used the rice method to save it but now now it will turn on but it won't respond when i try to touch it. any ideas

    Try restoring to factory defaults/new iPod. If yu still have the problem then it appears that the water damaged your iPod and service is required.

  • Ipod Touch 3g Got hot and now won't turn on

    I have an iPod touch 3g, 8gb's to be specific. I forgot the password to get into it, so I plugged it into my computer in order to reset the whole thing. I plugged it in and it connected, but after three seconds or so it disconnected. I tried plugging it in again, but the computer didn't notice anything plugged in.
    I looked on the internet for some advice and I learned that I could hold the power button and the power button at the same time for somewhere between 5 and 10 seconds to restart it. I did that. The iPod turned off, but it got really hot and now won't power on plugged in or not.
    What caused this? It's written all over this website that doing that would just reset the iPod, not kill it! Did it toast the motherboard?

    The cable should not cause a problem unless it was really damaged and had power going to the wrong contacts.

    However, th heating may indicate a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Palm TX-got wet and dropped it. It doesn't work

    Help!!  I don't know what happened to my last post, but got no reply.  I accidentally spilled water into my purse on Friday, 12/18, which got my Palm TX wet; then in my panic, I dropped it and a small black (about1" square) piece flew out of it.  I let the whole thing dry with and without the piece.  It will not turn on at all.  What to do.  The Palm TX is about 1 year old and I rely on it heavily.  Dottie S.

    First is are you trying to do a cabled sync or are you syncing via a modem?
    If you are doing a standard cable sync then
    1. Launch hotsync
    2. Make sure "Local" is highlighted dark blue
    3. Under the hotsync icon make sure it says cradle / cable
    4. On the computer right click the hotsync icon in the far right hand corner of your computer
    5. Make sure Local is checked and nothing else
    6. Attempt to Hotsync

  • I got Mavericks and now clicking my mouse doesn't work in many apple programs, is there anything I can do to fix this, and is Apple working on a fix for it?

    Clicking buttons doesn't work in calendar, preview, or updates, and it also doesn't work in fullscreen videos viewed on youtube.  Right click seems to work like a left click, but not for everything.  Clicking the mouse works in other programs.

  • Updated to 4.2.1, and now the location feature doesn't work...

    Had an iPod 2nd Gen for a good few years now, and never had a problem.
    I updated the software to 4.2.1 the other day, and since then the iPod is unable to track my location.
    I use it through Wi-Fi, and before the update, it worked fine. Now when i access Google Earth, Maps, Social networking sites etc none of them can identify my location and a message pops up saying "Could not determine location".
    I have all the location functions activated, so i dont understand why the update seems to have affected this function...
    Anyone help? Its driving me crazy!

    - Have you tried resetting your iPod:
    Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Resetting network settings:
    Settings>General>Reset Network Settings
    Other users have experienced the same problem. It seems to be related to Apple changing the database they use for determining location by wifi. Apple used to use a service called Skyhook but now they use their own database of wifi routers with their location. It appears that you router is not in Apple's database. As of yet nobody has found a way to update Apple's database.

  • HP updated my BIOS and now the sound system doesn't work on Dv76012Tx.

    HP Care / Support Assistant requested to update my BIOS, which I did.  Computer restarted a couple of times then I found my sound system doesn't work.  My computer is Dv7-6012Tx and it is just a week old.  I now get no sound, and it had been working beautifully.
    Please reset my BIOS back to how it was.

    Had the same problem as of about 30 minutes ago.  New BIOS update, sound doesn't work.  Drivers all read as up-to-date.  What the hell?

  • Reformatted my T40, and now the DVD reader doesn't work.

    I have recently reformatted my T40, had some problems with viruses, but it is alright now.
    Only then, do I realize that my DVD reader does not read. I tried a regular CD and it worked, not the DVD though.
    There was nothing wrong with the DVD player, prior to reformatting. So, could it be something I did when reformatting?
    Please help. Thank you. 

    If you re-loaded the software from the IBM recovery CDs, you should have the decoder (DVD player) software installed.  If you used a microsoft OS CD, it doesn't come with the player.
