IPad touch screen not calibrated

My iPad's having problems with its touch screen because sometimes when I type with certain keys, it enters the key twice which is very annoying.
I'm actually typing on my iPad now and it's aautocorrect is the only thing that's fixing it right now. It seems like the lower right of my screen is very uncalibrated along with various spots. This also occurs in apps. For example, when I drag my finger across the screen to drag things it goes back to where it was at random intervals. Say I'm dragging an app to the first page, sometimes the app ggoes back to where it was when I'm a about to place it. I've tried resetting and restarting the iPad but it still has this problem. If aautocorrect wasn't on, this message would just aappear aass gibberish due to all of the double letters appearing even though I tap the key once.
This problem appears on every aapp and is on the iPad itself.

Try doing a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears and it restarts, ignoring the red slider if that appears.
If that does not help, take the iPad to an Apple store genius bar and have the techs check out the screen to see if there is a hardware fault.

  • Touch Screen Not Calibrated

    I am trying to set up my Palm TX and the touch screen is not calibrated correctly.  When I touch an icon on the right side of the screen, it looks as if I'm touching something on the left side of the screen.  This is very frustrating.  I've heard that I might need to do a hard reset on the Palm, but need assistance. Can anyone help me? 
    Thnx

    Hello and thank you for using the Palm Help Forums!
    First I would go into your Preferences on the device. In there click "Touchscreen" then Allign Screen. Tap on the targets the most accurately you can. The target will shift 3-4 times during this process. After the allignment is complete see if you are experiencing the same issue. If so, you may need to hard reset the device.
    I hope this is helpful and let me know how it works out.

  • Droid Eris Touch screen not calibrating

    I've had my Eris since December '09.  A few days ago I noticed a significant decrease in the touch screen sensitivity.  Yesterday, I noticed that part of the screen is almost completely unresponsive, unless I held it down for a long time or tapped the screen hard.
    Today, when I press the symbol to home, instead, it will select whatever is in the upper left corner, and the same for the lower right corner, selecting the upper right corner instead.
    I've tried to recalibrate it, but all I can do is recalibrate the keyboard.  Is there a way, without doing a hard reset, to fix this?

    That's most likely a hardware issue--either a component in the screen has failed or is in the process of failing. Your best bet is to bring it into a Verizon store for support--make sure to back up your data ahead of time, as they're required to try a factory reset before giving you a refurb unit. No sense in doing the reset yourself for a hardware issue when they're going to have to do it anyway.
    And if you do need a refurb, make sure to ask them to swap your current SD card into the refurb unit, so you don't lose pictures, etc.

    my ipad touch screen is not working please give solution for it.
    i have connected ipad to itunes and done it restore seetings then also my touch is not working but
    when i connected ipad to i tunes inside functions are working properly but touch screen is not working what can i do

    If you have a screen protector on the iPad's screen, try removing it. If you don't or that doesn't help, and restoring the iPad to factory settings has not corrected the problem, then the iPad probably has a hardware problem and will need to be taken or sent to Apple for replacement.

    Try giving it a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. When you see the silver apple, let go and let it reboot and then see if your touch screen is back.

  • My apple iPad touch screen is not responding

    My apple ipad touch screen is not responding it was working since few hours then that happened. There is no a single point on the responds to touch but everything is working on the welcome screen, detects  the Wi-Fi ... etc.
    First thing I did was passing on my local agent store. They did a soft reset what caused lose all data and apps (not a problem) but they didn't fix and asked to visit the support branch .. now i can't use the "Siri trick" and I think it's not helpful after resetting my device.
    I tried removing the screen protector but still no hope. Turned off it and cleaned the screen  but didn't help!!
    Is There another way? Any expected scenarios/time when I visit the repair branch in Egypt?
    I've upgraded to latest (7.12) 2 or 3 weeks ago

    Thanks ..
    I've mentioned that I did that now I'm in another stage, The iPad at the main reseller support department and they told me now that they will give me another in return .... the strange thing I have heard was that I have to wait 4 weeks until they get me one from Apple .. I'm i Egypt

  • IPad mini screen not responding.

    Was using my iPad for a short duration and locked the screen. Went back to it about 10-20 min later, and the screen was not responding. Would try to slide the lock screen, press the camera, and nothing would work. I have restarted it multiple times with pressing both lock and home buttons at same time, and nothing as worked. I guess I will have to try to let the battery die but thats gonna take a few days. Any suggestions?

    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.)

  • How to fix an iPad touch screen?

    My iPad touch screen is writing alone and opening many task at the same time.

    Hi jcr1998,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you've already done quite a bit of troubleshooting with the iPad. The article linked below will provide a few more suggestions and help you resolve the issue.
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Troubleshooting touchscreen response
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1827
    Resolution
    If your device is experiencing any of the symptoms listed above, try the following steps:
    Restart your device
    Hold the On/Off button until "slide to power off" appears. Slide to power off your device. When it is off, press the On/Off button to turn it back on.
    If you can't restart your device, reset it by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for a least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    Clean the screen with a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth.
    Avoid using the device while wearing gloves, with wet hands, or immediately after applying hand lotion.
    If you have a protective case, or if you are using a plastic sheet or film on the display, try removing them and testing the device without it.
    If the steps above don't resolve your issue, please schedule a service appointment with an Apple Retail Store for evaluation. If an Apple Retail store is not an option, contact Apple to find out your best service option or see theService FAQ for your product.

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable                                                       
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • HT1766 iPad touch screen stopped working.  Can't scroll or select any apps. Can't reboot.  Connect to PC via iTunes doesn't recognize the iPad.

    The iPad touch screen suddenly stopped working.  It's been fine, but stopped all of a sudden.  Couldn't reboot since pressing the hibernate button also asked for a "swipe" but couldn't swipe since the screen isn;t sensing any touching.  can't scroll main screen appas.  Can't connect to iTunes, says not connected.  Next stop Apple store unless someone has an idea.

    Have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
