Ipad touchscreen problem

I have problems with my ipad's touchscreen, it doesn't respond in one part of the screen!

Try this:
Make sure IOS is updated to latest version
Reboot device by pressing both the home button and sleep/wake (power) buttons at the same time for 10-15 seconds until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings
If that doesn't work then backup and then restore the device as new.

    iPad sync problem - HELP!  I keep getting this message "...cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes library (additional ...space needed)"  and yet I seem to have plenty of space on the iPad.  This just started today.  I even tried deleting some things to make even more room, but it didn't help.  Any ideas??? 
    I was thinking of restoring, but I've never done it...  should I?

  • Touchpad touchscreen problems (erratic behavior/not responding correctly/etc) temporary solution.

    I bought a HP Touchpad about a month or two after it came out. It worked pretty much as you'd expect it to until some time ago. I started getting a problem where the screen would go crazy and not respond correctly to my touch inputs. Web pages would jump all over the place, cards would zoom out, etc, in other words, they would behave erratically. After some testing I noticed that certain areas  of the touchscreen would NOT respond at all to inputs while others would make the screen go crazy like I mentioned previously. I looked for information on the web to see if other people where having the same problem and found reports of the same behavior. Unfortunately there where no solutions offered. At that point I tried turning on and off the Touchpad which did not resolve the problem. My next step was to try to reinstall the OS with WebOS Doctor, but I read a post where the user reported similar behavior and reinstalling with WebOS Doctor didn't fix the problem. Needless to say I was bummed out since I figured it was a hardware problem with the touchscreen. After more testing I found a temporary solution to the problem which seems to suggest that the probem could be software. The solution when you get the problem is to hold down the power button and the home button at the same time and keep them pressed until the screen shuts down and the touchpad restarts. Once the OS comes back up it works like it is supposed to until you get the next episode of screen epilepsy. At that point you need to do the procedure again and it will fix the problem temporarily. Usually the fix lasts for a few days in my case. The fix also solves other problems I have with the touchpad. Problems like, videos not playing fluidly or freezing every few seconds although the sound plays fine (youtube), sound gets messed up (sounds are played in a robot like pitch), and others. If anybody has questions or other suggestions let me know, I will answer the as best as I can.
    Post relates to: HP TouchPad (WiFi)

    I think the YouTube and sound problems are separate from the other erratic behaviour.  Recently my touchpad won't play YouTube videos beyond certain points, starting a few seconds in possibly due to the advertising pop-ups - I can skip forwards, but that means I miss crucial parts.  My sound also goes 'robot-like' until a reboot, which is incredibly annoying!  Your touchscreen problems may be specific to your device - try going to Device Info / Diagnostics and see if that tells you anything.

    You will have to contact the previous owner and ask him/her to remove the iPad from their account, he/she is the only person that can do it : Find My iPhone Activation Lock: Removing a device from a previous owner’s account - you won't be able to use the iPad until they do so.

    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html

  • IPad touchscreen is not responding even if I did the restart procedure.

    iPad touchscreen is not responding even if I did the restart procedure.

    Hi AngusZ,
    The article below may be able to help you with this issue.
    Click on the link below to see more details and screenshots.
    I've quoted some helpful highlights for you:
    iPhone, iPad or iPod touch: Not responding or does not turn on
    Resolution
    Follow the appropriate steps for the symptom you're experiencing.
    If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close
    If the device is unresponsive or certain controls aren't working as expected, try restarting
    To turn off the device, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears.
    Slide your finger across the slider to turn off the device.
    To turn on the device, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), try resetting Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds.
    If there is no video, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on
    If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the 10W USB Power Adapter.
    Let charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
    If there is no image on the screen, press the Home button to attempt to wake the device.
    If the screen displays a red battery icon, let the device to continue to charge until it turns on.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes
    Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more about restoring iOS software.
    If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode.
    I hope this information helps ....
    Have a great day!

  • TouchSmart IQ506 Touchscreen Problems

    Our company recently got a TouchSmart IQ506 with Windows Vista 64bit, and everything was working fine. We did a fresh reformat, got it in the network and ran all the updates and such. As you may, or may not, know, the IQ506 doesn't have a VGA port to setup a second monitor or connect to a projector, so in order to use the TouchSmart mirroring an image to the projector we purchased StarTech's USB 2.0 to VGA Display Adapter. I installed the drivers and got it working and mirroring the image properly, however, now I am having a problem with the touchscreen.
    The touchscreen is responding when I touch it, but the pointer is flushed all the way to the right. The mouse follows my stylus up and down with me, but it doesn't come to the left. It is as if the screen is only reading the y-coordinates of where I am touching, and the x-coordinates are stuck all the way to the right.
    The touchscreen was working perfectly fine before I installed the graphics card driver, and the software to get the VGA display adapter to work. The mouse and keyboard is working fine, everything is perfect except for this touchscreen problem. I am 99% sure it is a software issue, and I wanted to know if there is a known issue, or if anyone else has had this kind of problem. I'm assuming it is the software for the VGA display adapter, and was wondering if that is the case, what alternatives I can make so the TouchSmart can support a second display without having touchscreen, or any other, problems.
    Sorry in advance if there is already a topic on this issue, I went thorugh the forums and didn't find anything about this.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    It sound like the calibration screen and the touch "focus" has been shifted to the "primary" display - which is the last added display adapter. I don't have the setup to test, but you might be able to fix by selecting the Touch panel as the primary display (maybe). You may be stuck because the USB adapter will always be enumerated as the last device.
    Perhaps...
    1) Plug in USB adapter to enable display.
    2) Go into display options and select Touchscreen as Primary and make sure "extend desktop" is unchecked.
    You may also be able to trick the system by going into DM and removing reinstalling the real primary display adapter.
    If all fails, you should be able to unplug the USB device and use MS system restore to go back when it was working properly.
    Of course, I am saying all this without having the hardware in front ofme. I've played around with mutiple displays enough to know that you get into some funny behaviour when you have two distinct video adapters installed in the system. The best multi-display solution are those driven from one adapter - one video card with an HDMI and a DVI for example.
    If you figure this out, please reply back. I'd like to know if it is possible to keep touch while using another adapter.

    Please post rather than send me a Message. It's good for the community and I might not be able to get back quickly. - Thank you.

  • Can i download java for my ipad, the problem is i open glovis.usgs from my ipad, but i can't see the full page, cause the page need a java...help me please

    Can i download java for my ipad, the problem is i open glovis.usgs from my ipad, but i can't see the full page, cause the page need a java...help me please

    Nope. The iPad (and iPhone and iPod touch) cannot execute Java applets. It's a limitation in iOS from the beginning (just like lack of Flash). You will either need to use a desktop computer or access a desktop computer via RDP or VNC to access that page on iPad.mIn short: there is no native way to use a Java applet on iOS.

  • XPERIA Z1 touchscreen problems while getting hot

    Hi guys, I'm the owner of the Xperia Z1 for 2 months, and if I play demanding games, phone is getting hot, I know it's normal, BUT, when the phone is really hot, touchscreen have some problems, when I drawing lines, something interrupts my drawing, and when I'm moving in games which need to hold the thumb on screen, sometimes it interrupts too, I read a lot of forums about Z1 touchscreen problem, but i dunno it is software problem or hardware O.o plz help.

    one of my friends , today has bought a brand new xperia z1, tho i warned him, and he ignored me saying that mine was defective, and guess what, KA booom
    it has the same problem as my unit hahaha, you guys should've seen his face
    still the sony guys won't reply to me cause they know the problem and still shy about it, we wen't back to the sony shop, they told us that many users who have z1 compact and z ultra are coming for the same fault, 
    do you guys think it's a driver problem related to the snapdragon 800 ?
    come on guys let this thread alive again, if you make it die, sony will live you with a defective phone as long as you still own one of their dragon 800 device.
    this is very sad, as i find the xperia z1 much snappier than xperia z2 and z3

  • Touchscreen Probleme

    Hallo liebe Apple Community,
    vor einigen Tagen war ich mal wieder mit meinem iPod Touch 3g joggen, als es auf einmal zu regnen anfing.
    Daraufhin schaltete ich den iPod aus um mögliche Schäden zu vermeiden. Als ich wieder zu Hause ankam konnte ich den iPod nicht mehr anschalten, also ließ ich ihn einige Tage lang einfach liegen. Danach ging er auch wieder bis auf einen kleinen Wackelkontakt des Standby-Schalters einwandfrei.
    Ein paar Tage danach fing er dann immer wieder an, abzustürzen, also schloss ich ihn an meinen PC an und als dieser meldete er könne die Daten des iPods nicht lesen, stellte ich diesen wieder her.
    Danach verweigerte der Touchscreen leider komplett den Dienst, was er vor der Wiederherstellung noch nie getan hatte.
    Ich führte also eine erneute Wiederherstellung durch und probierte auch ein Hard-Reset - kein Erfolg.
    Mittlerweile funktioniert der Touchscreen immer mal wieder kurz und dann auch wieder nicht mehr und ich muss ihn dann erneut 2-3 Male wiederherstellen bis der Touchscreen dann wieder für ein paar Minuten funktioniert.
    Was glaubt ihr? Handelt es sich um einen Hardware Fehler? Oder kann es an der Software liegen? Und wie komme ich zu einer Lösung des Problems?
    Über alle konstruktiven Antworten würde ich mich sehr freuen!

    Also ich habe jetzt meine iPod 2 Tage lang in einer Schüssel voller Reis gelassen. Danach ging er erst mal gar nicht an. Als ich ihn dann ein paar Stunden ladend liegengelassen habe ging er dann auch wieder an allerdings besteht das Touchscreen Problem nach wie vor. Ich habe auch schon mehrmals eine Wiederherstellung probiert.
    Der Anleitung kann ich leider nicht folgen, da ich meinen iPod nicht entriegelt bekomme und ich somit auch nicht an die Einstellungen herankomme.
    Allerdings sind nach wie vor die Wassersensoren nicht aktiviert.
    Was soll ich tun?
