Ipad "died" mid-app/screen saver and now not responding?

Help!.... I was playing hte latest round of "song pop" app... left the ipad to answer the call of nature, and when I returned, the screen had locked (normal time out i thought)... but now none of the buttons have any effect!..
I can't even turn it off!....
Any ideas, tried plugging in to laptop/itunes, but nothing happens!>.
HELP! (please!)

- Try the remaining steps here:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't turn the iPod off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try again.
- If still not successful then time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

I m having problems with my iPad 2 gestures. The screen enlarges and will not respond to my attempts to restore it.

I m having problems with my iPad 2 gestures. The screen enlarges and will not respond to my attempts to restore it. Is anyone else having this problem? What is causing it and what helps to restore normalcy?

Try double-tapping the screen with 3 fingers and see if that zooms it back out - and if it does set Settings > General > Accessibility > Zoom 'off'. If it doesn't zoom you back then try triple-clicking the home button and see if that turns it off, and if it does you can then change what a triple-click does via Settings > General > Accessibility > Triple-Click Home.

This sounds more like a Windows question, than a Firefox question. When you say that an image shows up every time you open your computer, do you mean every time you turn on your computer, or every time you start Firefox?

The notepad app says waiting and will not respond. No other apps are waiting. I have rebooted the iPad to no avail

My notepad app is greyed out and is labelled waiting. It will not respond. No other apps appear to be waiting. I have tried rebooting to no avail. Any suggestions?

Try this:
Log out of the iTunes Store on your device:
Settings>iTunes & App Store...tap your Apple ID, then select "Sign Out"
Reset your device:
Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

Unless you get that WRT54G for free or next to free, pass on it and pick up an old apple WAP off eBay or similar site. Like you my iPad has a connectivity problem with the WRVS4400N running iOS 4.2.1, where it didn't have trouble with iOS 3.2.2 and ran fine for five months.
My solution at the office was to spur a second router off my DSL router just for the iPad. The first was a WRT54G that had to be set to only one 802.11 protocol to keep the iPad reliably connected, but swapped it out for an old airport extreme that I kept on after testing it to be good. With a home network like you describe, I would run a subnet off the WRVS4400N just for iPad using an apple WAP (the configuration app for Windows is easy to use).
Good luck.

IPOD NANO FAILED DURING UPDATE AND NOW NOT RESPONDING

HI,
I have an ipod 4gb nano. I had songs loaded on it and it was working fine. I downloaded the latest version of the ipod updater (2006-03-23) to update my ipod. During the update process the battery on my laptop died and now I cant do anything.
If I try and redo the update it just hangs. The ipod displays do not disconnect but doesnt do anything. I tunes is no longer recognising the ipod. All the songs from the ipod have been erased (I did not select restore when I initillay tried the update)
I can see the ipod from my explorer but it will not let me access the device it just hangs.
Can anyone advise me how to fix this so I can use it again.
My latop is running Windows XP.
Thanks

IPad 2 stuck in recovery mode and does not respond to usual cures.

I wonder if anyone can suggest what further I can do to get an iPad 2 16MB WiFI model out of recovery mode. The machine was previously working normally but after a charge would not turn on. It connected to iTunes on a Windows system when started using the home button press before USB plug method. iTunes reported the iPad in restore mode even though the diagnostic tools menu in iTunes said that the ipad was not connected. The Windows system device manager showed that the Apple USB driver was loaded but did not show the iPad as a device. However, running restore from iTunes seemed to work correctly with the progress bar showing on the iPad and the information bar on iTunes showing installation of software and firmware. iTunes then said that the iPad would restart - but it did not. It just stayed in restore mode. A new USB cable made no difference and the same thing happens when I repeat the attempted restore on another Windows system. I have done the attempted restore multiple times as has been suggested is needed. I also let the battery run flat before doing restore attempts. Both Windows system were cleaned of everything non essential and the iTunes is up to date. Doing the restore from DFU mode gives the same result. I have occasionally had the error code oxe8000084 reported by iTunes. Am I dealing with a hardware fault?

This is the error report from iTunes which despite saying that device connectivity fails - seems to be able to see what is on the iPad.:

It simply stays on the same screen image, and does not respond to anything. When I plug it into itunes, there is no indication of its presence.
The ipad's clock has also stopped.

I have just opened 2 new albums in photo but cannot see the albums thru' itunes when syncing my ipad or thru' the screen saver on ITV . My photo apps is Version 1.0 (209.52.0)

Have you tried deleting the photo cache from your computer and then re-trying the photo sync and see if they all then copy over (you need to select and sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go, as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad) ? The location of the cache, and how to delete it, is on this page http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314
Don't know about the Facebook photo emailing, but there are a number of apps that allow to upload photos to their site (e.g. the 'official' Facebook app).

Screen Saver and Size of Background - Help, please!

Hello there!
I have a brand new Dell computer from Best Buy. With my last computer (Gateway), I was able to set up an automatic screen saver of a slideshow of pictures if my computer was not used for a certain amount of minutes.
With this new computer, I have set up the same settings, but the screen saver NEVER comes on. I have clicked everything I need to, accepted, and saved the settings, but it never works. Any ideas?
I decided to try and fix it myself, so I went into the Control Panel, Appearance and Personalization, Change Screen Saver, and then went into Power Settings to see if maybe the display wasn't working for this reason. I cannot remember what I did, but now the background picture is HUGE.
To fix this, I have gone into screen resolution and display/power settings, but everything seems to be set to "recommended", so I cannot figure out what happened to make the images so large suddenly.
1) Can you help me get the screen saver slideshow to activate?
2) How do I get my background pictures back to normal size?
Thank you so much for your help!!! I really appreciate it.

Wow, so sorry for the hype delayed response. it could be that your laptop was timing out for powersave before the screensaver would kick in. The best thing to do is go into your screen saver, set it to 1 minute and then let it sit for a minute without touching it (with it plugged in). It should kick in. Again, most laptops cut the monitor off after just a few minutes to conserve the power of the battery. I'm glad that the other solution worked for you =)
