Ipad screen buttons dont work properly when being charged

If I am using my iPad 2 whilst being charged the onscreen buttons do not work properly, you cannot type anything as the keyboard flips between numbers and letters and types all the wrong letters. or any button that you want to use does not do what it is supposed to do, it is a bit like of you had water on the screen. Has nyone else seen or heard of this problem? any ideas what I can do if anything?

Not necessarily while charging - but on occasion - my keyboard will do weird things - especially when I'm using Safari. Have you ever tried a hard reset to see if that helps?
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.
You could also try quitting apps - just to see if that helps at all with this issue.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

    If after you charge it for about three hours and it only last about five minutes the battery is probably dead or there could be another hardware problem.  I would go back to the Apple store and ask them specifically how can it be OK if the fully charged battery only lasts five minutes.

  • Z2 double tap to wake up the screen is not working properly when taking it out of pocket

    when i take my phone out of my pocket, the double tap function is not working properly, sometimes i have to  tap over and over to wake up the screen. 
    do you know why? does same thing happen to yours ? 
    and please dont tell me not to use it. i have paid 700$ and i have right to use my phone fully functioning.  
    any advice ?

    Actually it needs some practice, you need two gentle taps on the upper third of the phone (around the place where the clock shows on lock screen), tapping too hard or tapping on the lower part of the phone will require repeating the tapping more than one time. This is from my personal experience.

  • IDVD Scene Selection Buttons Dont Work Properly

    Trying to burn a DVD with multiple scene selections. This project has 19 scenes. No matter which button I click on, they all go to 1 chapter. Even the Play Movie button on the main menu goes to the same scene. I looked at the map & can't see if anything is wrong. This happens periodically but can't figure out why this happens.
    Thanks for your help.

    (BTW, iDVD 7.0.3 IS iDVD 08 that came with iLife 8....There was no iLife 7).
    THOUGHTS:
    1. I would first trash iDVD's Preference file: With iDVD closed, go to your Home folder(YourUserName)/Library/Preferences/com.apple.idvd.plist
    Drag this plist file to the trash. Don't worry...iDVD will create a new fresh one when you relaunch it.
    2. I also recommend that you do a 'repair permissions' on your computer's drive.
    Open Disk Utility and locate your computer's named icon in the left panel.
    Select it, and then choose to 'repair permissions' You will see this option if the First Aid tab is selected.
    Be patient...it make take some time.
    If anything needs to be corrected, let DU do it.
    When it says that everything is now ok, you are done.
    After doing both of the above, reopen your iDVD project. You can try to burn a disk or create a disk image file again, but if that still does not work right, I would create a new iDVD project and make a disk image file from that one. If the first project is not working, something must be corrupted with the chapters, so I recommend a new iDVD project.
    3. Be sure you have followed the chapter marker 'rules':
    Don't put a marker at the beginning of your iMovie...iDVD will do that automatically.
    Don't put a marker within two seconds of the beginning or the end of your movie.
    And, don't put a marker on or within two seconds of any transition.
    That last one is not so crucial as it used to be, but if you put most of your markers on transitions, you may run into problems.
    I use iMovie 6, and I make use of its ability to be exported as a quicktime movie. I then open a new iMovie project and drag in the quicktime version of my original iMovie, make chapter markers and use this one to put into iDVD. Because the iMovie is one long clip now, I can put chapter markers anywhere (except the beginning) and they always work.
    I think it is a bit more complicated to do this with iMovie 9; you will need to search in that discussion.
    4. Also be sure you have not used non-alphanumeric characters for your scene titles. iDVD apparently does not like things like ampersands--& and other such characters.
    Post back if you are still having problems.

    Hi, RomeroSalsa. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    I understand that you are experiencing an issue with the responsiveness of your iPad mini while charging.  I would need a little more information on how you are charging the device to provide a better answer.  While the steps below are not exactly labeled for this issue, they may help resolve the issue.
    If the battery doesn’t charge
    If the battery doesn’t charge, unplug your device and try these steps:
    Look at the connector at the bottom of your device and make sure it’s free of debris.
    If you're using a USB power adapter, make sure it's plugged in all the way and the power outlet is working. If you're connecting to a computer, make sure it's on and can charge your device. To charge an iPad, you might need to use a USB power adapter and plug into a power outlet.
    Try a different USB cable, USB power adapter, or USB port.
    If everything seems to be working, reconnect your device and wait for 30 minutes.
    If your device still doesn’t charge, try to restart it while it's connected to power. If you can't restart, reset your device.
    If you can’t charge your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

    Thank you for that update.
    I would next backup your device to iTunes with this article:

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    And restore it first as a new device, and verify that it works properly, then restore from your backup with the same article below to ensure that it is still working.
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings

    Thanks for that information!
    I'm sure I will be calling AppleCare, but the problem is, they charge for the phone calls don't they? Because I don't have money to be spending to be on the phone with a support service.
    In other things, it seemed like the only time my MacBook was working was when I had Snow Leopard without the 10.6.8 update download that was supposed to be done to prepare for OS X Lion.
    When I look at the information of my HD it says that I have 10.6.8 but that was the install that it claimed to have failed and caused me to restart resulting in all of the repeated problems.
    Also, because my computer is currently down, and I've lost all files how would that effect the use of my iPhone? Because if it doesn't get fixed by the time OS 5 is released, how would I be able to upgrade?!

  • Flip Card Animation is not working properly when Button's PointOver State remain Activated.

    Actually i simply want flip card animation which is not working here in my code. When i tapped button to invoke animation its behavior not exactly flipping.  Its one side work properly but other collapsed suddenly not rotate if i keep mouse right at
    the button, but if i change mouse pointer at that very time after tapping it works properly. Mouse Pointer Over mean screen points where i tapped.
    Triggered Function is here:
      private void btnChangCase_Tapped(object sender, TappedRoutedEventArgs e)
                if(isCaseChanged==false)
                    isCaseChanged = true;
                    FlipOpen.Begin();
                else if(isCaseChanged==true)
                    isCaseChanged = false;
                    FlipClose.Begin();

    Hello Jm23ur,
    After reading your post, it sounds like you are experiencing performance issues with your device. You may want to consider restarting the device first, and then resetting if that does not work. This article provides detailed instructions for Restarting, and Reseting:
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    How to restart
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on the top of your device until the red slider appears. Then drag the slider to turn your device completely off.
    After the device turns off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button again until you see the Apple logo.
    How to reset
    You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can't restart it.
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities,

  • After updating to 8.3 so many apps dont work properly. Any body else got this?

    After updating to 8.3 so many apps dont work properly. Any body else got this?

    This is truthfully a WAG but here are some standard repair procedures:
    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, read this.

    I have the exact same problem.  I noticed this started after some windows update just prior to upgrading to Windows 7.  And then it got worse after the upgrade. 
    I'm having to go into the task manager and end the smartmenu.exe application just to stop the nagging volume bar across the middle of the screen and just to use the computer, but the Volume still jumps around rapidly.
    Please, HP read this and help.

  • Keypad and contacts button dont work on 5800

    i have just noticed that the keypad and contacts button on my main screen (nokia 5800) dont work now when i press them. This means that although i can still get to my contacts via the menu i cant type in a random phone number anymore....please help

    problem solved with hard reset, make sure you make a backup of your phone using nokia PC suite, then turn of your phone, then keep the green phone button , the red phone button and the camera button pressed in while turning your phone back on, keep the 3 buttons pressed in until you see the shaking hands, then give country date , time etc, them your phone is going to configure the memory card, after that restore your backup with your pc 
    I hope this is helping you out
