  • HT1430 How can you reboot your Touch if the screen is frozen and will not allow you to use the "slide to power off"

    How can I reboot my Touch when the screen is frozen and I cannot use the "slide to power off" feature?

    Next try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • How do i turn off talkback when the screen is locked?

    How Do I Turn Off Talkback When The Screen Is In Locked Mode? It Will Not Allow Me To Get To The Accessibility Icon.....

    Hi
    I’d be happy to help you disable talkback on your Moto E! If you have inadvertently enabled Talkback, you can quickly pause it, and then go back to disable this feature.
    Anywhere on the screen, swipe down then right in a single motion, as if you were drawing an “L”.
    Note: This should work whether the phone is on the lock screen or unlocked.
    You will then see 2 options in the top corners of the screen, select “Pause Feedback”.
    When the Suspend Talkback message appears, double tap “OK”.
    You can now normally go into Settings > Accessibility and disable talkback.
    I hope this helps!

    You may have to do this several times.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.

    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

    It's asking you to create a passcode. You can turn it off later if you wish.

  • How can I access my ipad when the message Not Enough Storage appears

    I am trying to use my iPad, but the message:
    "Not Enough Storage
    This iPad cannot be backed up because there is not enough iCloud storage available. You can manage your storage in Settings."

    Reboot/reset your iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen.

  • How can i restore my ipod when the restore fails

    I have a 32GB iPod touch, and it's been bricked over a year now. Every time I have tried to start it, it gets stuck in boot loop. I've scoured the net for ways to fix this other than the restore function. Every time I try to restore, it fails with a 1611 error code. I had tried to send it in for warranty repair when it was in warranty, and they promptly sent it back to me, accusing me of submerging it in water because the water exposure indicator was activated... and trust me, I baby my gadgets. If anything, it would have been sweat or condensation. But anyway, with ranting aside, how can I fix this? I feel like I am out of options...

    Error 1611
    This error typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, this error may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    The phrase "the device may need service" means the iPod has a hardware problem. From the information you provided it appears that you have hardware damage.
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

  • Apple just replaced a defective iPad. How do I restore my data from the cloud to my iPad?

    My iPad was replaced and would like to know, how do I restore my files from the cloud to my iPad?

  • How do I restore my Ipad 4 from my desktop computer? My charger was broken. I bought a new one but now it won't charge. I have a BATTERY bar in the middle of the screen that is flashing RED and I have a symbol on the bottom that looks like a charger.

    How do I restore my Ipad 4 from my desktop computer? My charger was damaged so I bought a new one but it won't charge. On my Ipad, I have a BATTERY bar in the middle that is flashing RED and an icon on the bottom that looks like the end of a charger. I have tried to force into reset mode, by holding the sleep key and home button SEVERAL times but it does NOT work. I have plugged my Ipad into my desktop computer, but I do not have a screen on my desktop that is coming up. THIS HAPPENED BEFORE AFTER I DID AN UPDATE AND WAS LOCKED OUT AND I USED EITHER ICLOUD OR ITUNES TO RESTORE, NOT SURE WHICH AND I FORGOT HOW.

    Hi MrsMoosie,
    I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues with your iPad. If your iPad isn't responding or doesn't appear to be charging, you may find the information and troubleshooting steps outlined in the following articles helpful, in particular the following portion:
    If you don't see the charging screen within an hour, or you see the connect to power screen, check your connector, USB cable, and power adapter. Make sure that everything is plugged in firmly, free of debris, and not damaged. You might want to try a different USB cable or power adapter.
    If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
    If you can’t charge your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    Regards,
    - Brenden
