Hi palash_1993,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
The article linked below provides a lot of great information and troubleshooting suggestions that’ll resolve issues like the one you described, where you're running into Touch ID issues with your iPhone 5s.
Use Touch ID on iPhone and iPad - Apple Support
Get help with Touch ID
Make sure that you're using the latest version of iOS.
Make sure that your fingers and the Home button are clean and dry.*
Cover the Home button completely. Don't tap too quickly, don't press down hard, and don't move your finger while Touch ID is scanning. Make sure that your finger touches the metal ring around the Home button.
If you're using a case or screen protector, make sure it doesn't cover the Home button or the surrounding ring. If it does, remove the case or screen protector and try again.
Tap Settings > Touch ID & Passcode and make sure that iPhone Unlock or iTunes & App Store is on. Also make sure that you've enrolled one or more fingerprints.
Try enrolling a different finger.
If you can't enroll any of your fingers, take your device to an Apple Retail Store, Apple Authorized Service Provider, or contact AppleCare for help.
* Moisture, lotions, sweat, oils, cuts, or dry skin might affect fingerprint recognition. Certain activities can also temporarily affect fingerprint recognition, including exercising, showering, swimming, cooking, or other conditions or changes that affect your fingerprint.
Cheers,

Dose anyone no how to fix my iphone it is not charging with my laptop
hello do you no how to fix my iphone it is not charging with my laptop
Important: Only original iPhone can be charged from a FireWire-based power source. If iPhone is connected to a computer that's turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the battery may drain.
Verify that the outlet being used is working.
Try another USB power adapter if available.
If no other USB power adapter is available, try connecting to a high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be turned on and not in sleep or standby mode.
Try another USB cable if available. -
My Ipod touch does not work properly.When i charge it,it only works for 5 min.n gets discharge.I showed it to the apple store in banglore n the person told me its fine n It is working properly.Bt its not working properly.Can someone help
If after you charge it for about three hours and it only last about five minutes the battery is probably dead or there could be another hardware problem. I would go back to the Apple store and ask them specifically how can it be OK if the fully charged battery only lasts five minutes.

My music app on my iphone 5 is not working properly since I downloaded ios7.
The music app on my iphone 5 is not working properly since I downloaded ios7.
Sometimes I start to use the music app and then part way though a track it stops. I try to re-start it with no joy. I'm also finding the touch screen is less responsive. Can any help me fix the issue or will I need to take it into the store?Removing the SIM has no affect on the power of the phone. It is just the part that facilitates connecting to your carrier. Try holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo on the screen and then release the buttons. The phone should reboot. You may need to hold the buttons together for 15-30 seconds.

I'm using iphone 5s with ios 7.1.2 & I am facing a new problem after every missed call. i phone gets freezed on its lock screen. It seems that its main screen touch is not working properly. It should be bug introduced by apple . This problem occurs after each and every missed call .There is no patch announcement for this issue yet. There are few workaround to fix this issue: Reboot your iphone. But its irritating to reboot the phone frequently after each issue....
Hello dipthebe,
Check out the articles below go through troubleshooting steps for your iPhone when the screen is unresponsive. You may want to try and restore your iPhone as a new device and then test out what happens when you miss a call to see if the issue is still present afterwards.

I have hp omni 10 .one day I change option of re calibrated now touch is not working properly how I can fix this
It seems that one of the Windows Updates is causing some conflict with the touchscreen driver/firmware. Try the following steps as a temporary work around until HP can come up with a permanent fix.
1. As you power on the Omni 10, press the hardware Volume Down button to get into the BIOS menu
2. Select BIOS Setup (if the touchscreen is not responding, you'll need to plug in a USB mouse via a micro USB male to USB female adapter)
3. Select Exit on the LEFT side of the screen
4. Select Load Setup Defaults on the RIGHT side of the screen & select Yes
5. Select Exit Saving Changes on the RIGHT side of the screen & select Yes
After the restart, the touchscreen should work again. -
My iPhone 3gs is not working properly and hasn't been since about September of last year. When switched on (Quite often it won't even turn on) it says 'Update Completed' as though it has just been updated. On the next screen it says to 'Connect to iTunes'. It doesn't, however, connect to iTunes and just resets itself over and over until power is gone. Occasionally after switching on and off a few times it functions normally for a few hours and some times even a couple of days but eventually always turns itself off and goes back to the 'Update Completed' screen. Does anyone know what might be causing this and/or a way of fixing it?
