I shut Down my IPad 2 every night, so that has not fixed the problem with the touch screen feature. Is their anything else that I can try? Thanks

You have already posted this morning and I assume that you are responding to someone elses's suggestion but from where .... I have no clue.
Go back to here and follow along. GrumpyGator made a couple of suggestions for you to try.

    If no joy... Try a Restore...

    There isn't much you can do to try and clean/service that button so best thing to do is take it to an Apple genius bar and have them check it out and see about repair or cleanng whatever they recommend.

    This happened one time before but a day later it was magically on again!

    Sounds like it's time to bring your phone to Apple for evaluation

  • HT1430 My ipad mini is frozen in an app and the home button is stuck.  Pressing down on the sleep/wake button does not give me the red slider to turn the ipad off.  Is there any other way I can reset?

  • Ipad dipped in water and sleep/wake button not working properly?

    My son dipped my ipad 2 in the water bucket for like half a second the ipad,before this ipad was out of battery and was off! i quickly took it out dried all the excess water and even used a blow dryer to dry it,after a quick dry i tried to swtich it on and everything is working okay till now except the wake/sleep button,its not locking the screen or not switching off the ipad. it did turned it on but its not locking the screen or turning off the ipad!
    when i tried reseting it from the general menu in settings it turned off and then the apple logo kept on coming for like 5 seconds and then going away this keeps on happening till i dont keep a hold off the sleep/wake button to switch it on or till the ipad runs out of battery,then if i hold the wake/sleep button to turns it.
    One more problem im facing as soon as the ipad turned.it gives me power off option everytime then iv to cancel it to use my ipad.
    so the main question is my sleep and wake button is turning on my device but not working while its on,what would be the problem and whats the solution?
    p.s. i was tensed about it so i quickly turned it on to check whether its working,i know i shouldnt had turned it on :/
    currently my ipad is off and iv put it under a fan to dry,thinking this might might help but im feeling it wont now its too late:(

    Hello:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    That resets the iPad.  If that does not work, I am afraid it has been damaged by the "water dip."

  • Should I shut down my iPhone every night? Sleep vs shut-down.

    Hi, If I never use my phone during the night, should I shut it right down every night? How much energy is used when the iPhone "sleeps" for 8 hours?
    Thanks for your thoughts on this!

    My battery will loose about 10% (polling email every hour, and push IM left on) over 7.5 hours.
    You can leave it on and I think Apple intend people do, because otherwise alarms will not go off, I use the alarms to wake me up The best option is to leave it on and plugged in.

    Hi Dee12124,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    I am going to get you to do a soft reset that, I will hope fix some of your issues.
    To do this:
    1. Press and hold the Home button (big circle below the screen) and the Sleep/Wake button (on top of the iPhone) simultaneously.
    2. Continue holding both buttons until the iPhone shuts off and begins to restart. This will take anywhere from 10-20 seconds.
    3. When you see the Apple Logo, you can let go of the buttons.
    If this still doesn't fix your device, what we could do is try resetting the whole device, wiping it. If this is the case, get back to me and I will pose the steps below. I would recommend that you do this AFTER the device is backedup however.
    Before you restore your device
    Make sure you’re using the latest version of iTunes.
    Use iTunes to back up your device. Transfer and sync any additional content to your computer.
    Turn off Find My iPhone in Settings > iCloud on your device to disable Activation Lock.
    Restore your iOS device
    Connect your iOS device to your computer using the cable that came with it.
    Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes. In the Summary panel, click Restore.
    Click Restore again to confirm that you want to restore your device to factory settings and delete all data and content. iTunes will download the iOS software file and restore your iOS device.
    After your iOS device is restored to factory settings, it will restart. Once it does, you’ll see the "Slide to set up” welcome screen. Follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. You can set up your device as new or using a previous backup. If your iOS device has cellular service, it will activate after you restore.

  • Opening a file shuts down my iPad app

    I've opened my campus map via my adobe iPad app. Every time I open it now in the app, it just shuts the app down. I've tried deleting and uploading a new PDF file. I've tried turning my iPad off and back on again.

    Hi,
    Adobe version 10.4.4
    iOS version 6.1.2
    Ive downloaded the campus map of my univerity. I open it up using adobe and it works fine the first time.
    Its when I go back into the adobe app to look at the map again, it begins to open it up, then just shuts down.
    It doesnt always happen, sometimes the app does open it up!!
    Ive not used the adobe app much since, so I cant tell you if it happens with other documents.

  • Since downloading the iOS on my iPad, I cannot download more than one pdf from mail to iBooks.  I have to shut down y iPad and start again.  Any suggestions?

    Since downloading iOS on my new iPad, I cannot downlaod more than one pdf from mail into iBooks.  I have to shut down my iPad and restart it to save a second pdf. Wasn't a problem with the old operating system.  Any suggestions?

    It seems that I have solved my issue by performing a full factory reset (erasing all content, something which I had hoped to avoid) restoring from an iCloud backup did not alleviate the issue, I had to set up as a new iPad.
    Hopefully anyone else else who has this issue in the future will be able to find this.
