I touch my screen and it touches somewhere else

If I touch my screen on my Ipod touch4, it totally goes somewhere else on the screen. especially with the key borad. If I type a 5 it says I typed a 7 or if i press backspace It says i pressed "m" . I can't do alomost anything on it now. I tried restarting it, reseting it, I even set it back to factory settings but nothing is working. WHAT DO I DO?!?!?

Warranties do not caove damage anyway.

Punch in problem-Why does cycle mode activate and snap to somewhere else when I set up a punch?

Punch in problem-Why does cycle mode activate and snap to somewhere else when I set up a punch?

Because whoever programmed it must be ********, I've dealt with this issue long enough. I've sent Apple feedback on this issue long ago and nothing has been done yet. The only work around is to try and remember that every time you double click in the punch line to hit the c button to turn it off before you start recording or you have to drag your punch line around all the time, what a pain in the ***.

HT1657 I have rented a movie and the download didn't start. Now everytime I try to play it I can't and I can't download it. I've been charged but can't watch my purchase. How do I just return it and rent it somewhere else? Too much of a hassle.

Where is "cut" command in Mac? Why I cannot cut a file/folder and paste it somewhere else?

I'm a professioinal who made the big step to pass from Windows to Mac. I do not regret it but there're things I cannot understand and i supposed being much easier or "native" in Mac.
Tipical example is the Cut command. I see it in Finder but why doesn't if work? Drag and drop do not copy but works like a ct and paste! I think if for mac this is enough Apple is gonna make it work bacause is a HUGE limit, specially for people like me who manage thousands of photos and cannot risk to drop huge amounts of files in a go or in a wrong folder of such.
Please tell me I'm wrong and there's a way to sort it out!
Thanks.

You can cut and paste items with Finder, a new feature in Lion, but it doesn't use the command-X "cut" command and is not very intuitive.
Highlight the item(s) to be moved, and type command-C to copy it. Then navigate to the destination window, and rather than pressing command-V (or Edit>Paste item) , instead press Option-command-V (or hold down option when using the Edit menu). This changes "paste" into "move item here", i.e, the item will disappear from where it was copied. The result is equivalent to a "cut and paste."

Bright stripe down middle of screen and cant see anything else

Can I uninstall CS6 from my 2nd computer (laptop) and install it somewhere else, later on?

I currently have a desktop and laptop with my CS6 (student version). My boss has CC and told me I could install it on either my desktop or laptop to work from home and avoid having to save files from CC to CS6 version etc.
I think that's fine but I was wondering if I could uninstall my CS6, then if in the future I need to install it on another computer or back onto my laptop, can I do that? I still have the disks and everything.
Is there anything I should keep in mind?
I was also wondreing if it was safe to work on the design files directly from the company's dropbox rather than saving it to the computer?

Hi robledesigns,
With a single license you can activate the product on a maximum of two machines.
If you wish to use the program on a third machine you will have to deactivate it from one of the previous machines.
You need not uninstall the program though, you ca just deactivate the program & later on if you wish to use it again on the same machine, you can reactivate it.
Its not recommended to work on the project files saved on dropbox. It may result in undesirable response.
Save the files on the local drive & at the end of the day when you are done, transfer the files to dropbox.
Thanks

When i open iPhoto i dont get a menu on the LHS of the screen and there is a continual spinning "wheel" in the middle of the screen. This has been like this since I bought my iMac

when i open iPhoto on my iMac i dont get a menu on the LHS of the screen and there is a continual spinning "wheel" in the middle of the screen and it does nothing else.

Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Does that work?

Home Screen and mic on iPod touch 2G

My little brother has an iPod touch 2G and he wants to have home screen backgrounds on it, as well as multitasking. His iPod doesnt support these featurees in iOS 4, and I heard somewhere that if you insert a strand of code into the 'SpringBoard' file on the iPod, (I have Windows XP) that you can set homescreen backgrounds.
Another thing is that we have tried many different headsets and mics on his iPod, but none have worked. Also, when you plug any kind of headset/headphone in, the sound still plays through the speaker as well as the headphones. He most importantly wants a mic for some VoIP apps he has.
-Please help, thanks.

- The first question can't be discussed here. It violates the lience that you agreed to with Apple.
- The problem with the mics/headphones is likely due to a problem with the jack in the iPod. Try to following to eliminate a softer problem:
- Reset, Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: 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 the iPod from backup
- Restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod.
If you still have the probem it is likely do to a jack hardware problem.

IPod Touch Not Working Properly After Front Screen and Housing Replacement

So my son left his iPod Touch 4th Gen on my back bumper and it fell off out in our dirt/gravel driveway. I finally found it, 7 days later, run over multiple times. Front screen and back housing were demolished as you can see, but it still worked fine (except rear facing camera was done). Ordered the rear camera, front screen and back housing assemblies off eBay from reputable sellers. Took it all apart and reassembled it. Bada bing! Everything was working fine: camera, speakers, touch screen, wi-fi, all of it, for about 2 days . It went from working perfectly, to being kinda glitchy (had to hold home and power to restart), to not turning on at all. I read somewhere that if you don't clean all metal to metal contacts, it may interfere and not work properly, so I just took it (almost) all apart again, cleaned the contacts, and it turned on and was working, but this time only for about half an hour. I've held down the home and power buttons for long periods of time, which sometimes got it to work, but now is not working at all. Any ideas on what might be going on??? Is the screen bad? Did I maybe miss a metal to metal contact (e.g. the power button, ribbon cable)? Any really important ones that you can tell me about? I really don't want to take it into the Apple store, but if I do, any ideas on a ruff guesstimate on what it's gonna cost me? Thanks for any help! I really appreciate it, I'd love to get this thing working for my 7 year old so I can have my d*** phone back!

My ipod touch is stuch on connect to itunes screen and once in itunes wont restore or let me back into my ipod. What do i do?

My ipod touch 4th gen was given to me by a friend. It worked fine until it got the recent update ios6. when i went to install it gave me a black screen that had the connect to itunes symbol.I plugged it in and it instantly told me to restore my ipod. All i want to do is be able to use my ipod again so i said yes. Half way through each time it tells me there is an error something is not connected or timed out and it stops.I have tried holding down home/sleep button and rebooting but each time it brings me strait back to plug into itunes screen and does not give me slide to shut off option. I have tried plugging it into a different computer (my home and my lap top) i have plugged it into the wall. i have done everything i have seen imaginable.I tried calling apple one guy said he'd help even though it wasnt under warrenty but had to call me back and (surprise) he never did and the second before he would connect me to help said i needed to pay 20 bucks. I dont have the money to do phone service and the genius bar is an hour drive away. Is there anything i can try that i havent yet? Or a way to completely shut it down and turn it on like brand new out of the box? Im really stressing out over this because ive never had to deal with this before. Please help!!

Leave it in the rice for at least a day and change the rice every other day or so. The rice and iPod should be in a sealed container.
