HT4623 My ipad as completely locked. The screen has frozen and I cant shut it down. Any ideas???

Hi
My iPad, which is brand new, has just frozen. It wont do anything. The screen is on but I cant just it down. Help!!

First try a Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least Ten seconds... (But can take Longer)... until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons
If no joy... Try a Restore...
1: Connect the device to Your computer and open iTunes.
2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.

Try to reboot it. Hold down the sleep and home keys until you see the silver apple, about 20 seconds or so. It should reboot and work for you.

My ipad is unresponsive. The screen is black and I have followed the instructions to turn the iPad on. I charged it for about 20 minutes and tried again, following the same instructions and there was still no response. How do I get my ipad to turn on?

HT4623 after an update my iPhone 4 has frozen with just the apple screen visible. I have tried connecting to iTunes but now iTunes isn't locating my iPhone. I have tried reseting the phone several times and that isn't working. Any ideas?

Try DFU Mode Restore. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB cable. Hold both Home and Power button, after exactly 10 seconds release the Power Button, keep holding the Home button until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, usually about 20 seconds time. If the iPhone screen is black, blank this is DFU Mode. Click the Restore button of iTunes.

Sorry, darned auto correct. Sleep and home. The home is the button on the front of your iPad. The sleep button is also the power down button. It's on the upper right edge of your iPad.
My apologies for the typo. My keyboard is charging and the onscreen keyboard and I don't get along well.

Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB 4G and $99 for the other 4Gs. They do not fix yours.

A third-party place like the following maybe less. Google for more.

I've just reset my iPhone 4s as I was planning to sell it on. After the normal stuff you see on a reset I've been left with a phone that just has the apple logo on the black screen and it appears to be frozen and wont do anything?? any ideas?
I've tried holding down top button and round button which makes it go off but as soon as you push top button again it comes back and again its frozen.
Thanks for any ideas in advance?

You need to put your iPhone into recovery mode to restore it: If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

Yeah it's dead. Take it to an Apple Genius Bar and have it checked out. Then buy a new one.

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.

Although photo appears beautiful on phone screen, when reviewed in gallery, half the picture has a large line going through it. Any ideas? I went to VZN and they replaced my first new phone 3 days ago for this same issue.

I'm sorry your pictures appear different in your gallery sillyymom. I know its frustrating with viewing important images. Are you using a 3rd party picture application? do you have any apps that may be conflicting with your pictures. Have you tried to review your picture settings?

probably your zoom is on. try double tapping with three fingers on your screen, it should go back to normal and then goto
settings>general>accesibility>zoom and disable it

The touch screen has frozen and is unresponsive.

The touch screen has frozen and is unresponsive. I tried synching it to my Mac, updating it, dumping my apps and resetting as new, as the tech support guy at Apple suggested, but it still does not work. Now what? Sadly, my warrenty has expired.

Frozen as on a particular image?
If so you might want to try a hard power down (if you haven't already).
I'm sure there are some better people to actually answer your direct question, other than me.
Sorry

I can see my Canon MP600 usb connected to Airport Express through Bonjour on my Windows XP. But, when installed by Bonjour, the printor time-out and can't print anything. Any idea what to do?

Thanks for the quick reply.
So am I correct in saying trying to utilise the Airport Express to access the printer over the network was a wasted effort due to the latest iOS? I had read up on the express before purchase and believed that was one of it's main purposes.
Thanks again for the help.
