If the screen is clean and you restored to factory defaults/new iPod and are still having the problem that indicates hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My iphone4s touch screen isn't working and i got a passlock

      my iphone touch screen isn't  working and i got a passlock what should i do

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

  • I drop my phone in a half bowl of water and the touch screen isn't working, and suri keeps coming on. is my phone broken now?

    I dropped my phone in a half bowl of water. The swipe screen isn't working and Suri keeps coming on. Is my phone broken or will it work after it sits in a bowl of rice?

    It is probably broken, but wait and see, it takes several days to dry out. If it does start working that may only be temporary as the iPhone corrodes.

  • Ipod keeps restarting on its own

    I just plugged my ipod into my PC, and it just keeps restarting over and over again. The apple symbol comes up and looks good, then goes dark and restarts again. Then sometimes it gets to the menu and shows the do not disconnect logo, but then restarts immediatly. It did this all night long...hours and hours....what do I do?

    Take a look at the article I provided a link to in my first post. Make sure your Hold switch is set to off, and try resetting your iPod a few more times. If your computer detects your iPod, try a restore with the latest iPod Updater (version 1.1.1). If your computer doesn't detect the iPod, try forcing it into disk mode.
    If the problem persists, you may have to contact Apple.

  • IPod Touch Screen Isn't Work?

    On my ipod touch the screen wont work in spots of it and it wont go up or down a web or app store or ect.

    Try in order:
    - Reset:
    Reset iPod touch:  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.
    - Restore the iPod from backup via itunes
    - Restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod
    If still problems you likely have a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My touch screen isn't working and stopped working after I went running with it. I have restarted it multiple times and restored it on my MacBook. It will still not let me slide it to even look at the phone. Please help ASAP.

    I took my iPhone running today and when I returned I was not able to slide it open or type in my pass code. All buttons are still responding. I have tried restarting it multiple times and even restored it, but the touch screen will not respond to anything. I also cleaned the screen off with a damp cloth. Please help! I WAS able to slide it open in the middle of restoring it but not able to click on any apps. Help! My life is on my iPhone and I am a nurse on call!

    Try restore as new using computer iTunes.

  • I have an IPhone 5S and after IOS 7.1 update, touch ID isn't working!!

    I did the update of ios 7.1, and now my touch id isnt working! Even reading new prints!

    Go into Calendar and click on Calendar on the bottom center of the page. That should list the calendars on your device. Down at the bottom of the list is "Other". That should display which Holiday calendar is on your device. As far as how it is selected, I cannot be sure of that, but I would tend to believe it has to do with your regional settings.
    What troubleshooting have you tried on the device?

  • My Itouch is stuck on a screen with a USB cable pointing to an iTunes symbol but when i try and connect to itunes it doesn't recognize it. I can't turn it off because my touch screen isn't working although my sleep button is, Help please?

    My iPod got slightly wet but only slightly. Could this have done it?

    Turn it off.  If it got wet somehow, you may try drying your ipod off.  The slow method would be a sunny window sill.  You could use a hair dryer on LOW, pointing it at the contacts.  When it drys out, charge itand try a hard-reset. If it still doesn't function properly....  ?

  • Touch screen won't work, and it's on lock

    I have this ipod that I've been trying to fix for someone, as well as load up songs from itunes. I've successfully synced songs to it to it's full capacity (8G). However, when it was done, I ejected it and tried to listen to it to see if it was working properly. The screen is locked, as well as the touch screen isn't working as if it's completely dead. I've never had this problem as I am familiar with Ipod Touches and Nanos. Does anyone have any remedies or suggestions?? Gonna try other things in the meantime.

    Hi Wazzup483, Im having the same problem you had. Screen locked, touch screen not responding and it won't stop playing music. It licked while I was listening to music. Took out my pocket and it was locked, guess I hit something.
    HELP :o)
    Thanks

  • My itunes keeps opening on its own without me opening it, it will happen again and again even after i close it. how do i fix it to make it stop doing this as it is extreemely annoying

    my itunes keeps opening on its own without me opening it, it will happen again and again even after i close it. how do i fix it to make it stop doing this as it is extreemely annoying

    If it is doing it while your device is plugged in, it is because it is set to automatically sync. Please go to: Preferences>Devices, and select the option to "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically." Also, I hate to be "that guy", but you spelt extremely wrong. Just a pro tip.

  • My MacBook keeps restarting on its own....

    Hi everyone,
    My MacBook Pro (2010) keeps restarting on its own and i get the grey message upon restartup that my computer restarted because of an unknown error, or something to that effect.  I actually have taken it to Mac Hollywood, an authorized Apple repair facility but they were totally useless and said they didnt encounter that problem although I insisted that it was an issue.  Anyway, they grudgingly replaced the hard drive but after getting it (clean install) it happened again before I even got the setup complete!  Can anyone please please help me??  I do have the latest crash log and can post it to make it easier and hope that info helps.  Thank you in advance

    Thank you Clinton for such a fast reply!  I actually did purchase AppleCare and even forwarded some logs to AppleCare support, but they all insisted it "probably" is/was a hard drive failure.  Even that authorized center didnt find or even suggest that my MacBook has any problems at all!  I will definitely let AppleCare know that a wise forum member mentioned to watch out for a GPU problem!
    Thanks so much!

  • IMac keeps restarting on its own

    My IMac keeps restarting on its own. It never really gets to the desktop when it restarts. Everytime it starts over, it gives me a message stating that it restarted because of a problem. I'm afraid It might be infected with some type of virus (if it's at all possible). Iupdated the OS to Mountain Lion a few days ago could that be the reason? I also tried to download some programs but erased them before installing anything. Could it have been me? Did I get my baby sick?

    Much to my dismay I don't have Applecare (that will change soon).
    GeekSqad at bestbuy was not able to help, despite the $170 buck I dished out so I'd get help for the next 2 years.
    Called applecare anyway (cause bestbuy know very little about Macs) and even though I don't have their service, after hours of trying different things, we couldn't fix the issue anyway. Later, on my own, I went ahead and re-installed Mountain Lion from the restore menu (command+R) and the computer seems to be working fine. Hope this helps someone else.
    Thanks again Mr. Boyd

  • My iPad mini is typing on its own, changing pages etc. what is wrong???

    My iPad mini is typing on its own.  The touchscreen seems to have taken on a life of it's own!  Can anyone help me fix this?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
