IPod Touch not responding well to touch

I touch the number pad to enter the passcode and it never registers by the number is selected on the screen.

Try the standard fixes:
- 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 from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod
- Last, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • My screen zooms in and cuts off access to other icons/apps and does not respond well to touch commands, My screen zooms in and cuts off access to other icons/apps and does not respond well to touch commands

    It started out as an occasional problem but not seems to happen multiple times a week. The screen will zoom in and not respond normally to touch and swipe actions.  I cannot seem to get it back to normal unless I turn my phone off which can prove to be very difficult when the touch functions and swipe functions are compromised. Any ideas?

    You have activated the Zoom function in Accessibility. Triple click the home button and you can use 3 fingers to scroll the screen. Go into Settings>General>Accessibility>Triple click Home button, off.
    Double tapping with 3 fingers should turn it on or off. Three fingers to scroll around screen. Double tap 3 fingers and drag to change zoom.

  • Nano was working perfectly until I had to reformat for windows computer. Now, it does not respond well to touch.

    I recently purchased a ipod nano and briefly had it synced with my macbook pro.  I recently sold my macbook pro and had to reformat ipod nano.  Since then, the ipod nano does not respond very well to touch commands and sometimes goes into apps that I did not select.  It is impossible to switch from page one to page two one app screen.
    Thanks,

    Hey acdc1996,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities! Even if you have a different generation of nano, you'll want to check out the troubleshooting steps in the following article as most of them would still be applicable:

  • Why does my ipod touch not respond to my touch to slide open or shut off it off?

    I was playing on the ipod and it went totally dead and i charged it and now it wont let me slide it open or wont shut it off the slide doesnt slide ?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - 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 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.

  • My iPod Touch (5th generation) is not responding to my touch. There are also several colored lines in the background of my screen. Virus?

    Since my iPod isn't responding to my touch, I can't switch it off or restart it as I normally would. I've tried doing the hold-down-the-sleep-button-and-the-home-button-for-ten-seconds thing but when the Apple logo appears, it's either completely pink in color or there are these vertical colored lines in the background. When the lock screen reappears, sometimes it looks completely normal (but it still doesn't respond), or everything's blurred, or there are these weird colours in the background, or those lines I mentioned before, but most of the times, it's completely dark and I can onlu see this moving flash at the bottom of the screen (indicating the presence of the slide to unlock thing).
    My computer was recently reformatted because it had had a virus, so I'm worried my iPod has gotten the virus too. I have some data on there that I really can't lose. (I haven't backed up this data because my computer had been on the fritz for the past two weeks).
    Is taking it to an Apple Help Centre the only cure? (I purchased the item in March 2013; Is there any chance I can get it replaced for free?) I tried moving the photos from the device to my PC but it says there are no photos in my device. (I've moved my photos before when I'd forgotten my password and was about to reset it.)
    I would really like some advice ASAP because if it is a virus, the longer I keep it untouched, the more havoc it causes. i fear.

    I do not think talking to Apple will do more than the following:

    Try what you have not tried so far. You may have tried all and the Apple store maybe in order.

  • After upgrade firmware my iPod does not respond to touch. Help me!

    After upgrade firmware with iTunes my iPod does not respond to touch.
    To be more precise - works, but very, very bad. And around the icons on the display is visible GRAY line of width 1 px.
    Please HELP me! This iPod - the gift for my girl.
    p.s. Maybe this problem arose because I reflash iPod with old cable from the iPhone?

    Thanks all, i solved the problem yourself.

  • My music screen has frozen and will not respond to my touch

    my 32g iPod touch will not respond to my touch while i am in my music library.  i can navigate through my iPod and access my apps, calendar, etc., but as soon as i try to get into my music and browse through it, nothing.  it has done this before, but it usually "snaps out of it", and eventually begins to work properly.  i purchased this iPod brand new in march 2012, so in my opinion it should not be acting up.  anyone have any idea as to what is going on with it?

  • My ipad is locked and it tells me to update my icloud but the screen is not responding to my touch?

    How do I get my screen unlocked so that I can update my ipad.  The screen is not responding to my touch, instead it is telling me... " This ipad hasnt been backed up in  12 weeks. Backups happen when this ipad is plugged in, locked and connnected to wi-fi".  Does this mean that I cant use this untill it is all done backing everything up? And how do I begin to use it since it says its locked?

    Reboot 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.
    After it boots up again, you will be able to use the iPad. You should backup the iPad like the message is telling you to do.

    my ipad is not responding , i accdentaily touch delete all contents and setting ,and now it shows a blanck sreen, with the itune icone and uv cord

    Assuming that you installed iTunes on your computer, you have to connect your iPad to your computer with the cable - plug the pin connector end into the iPad and the USB connector to a USB port on your computer. iTunes should start up on its own. If it doesn't start up, launch it yourself.
    Then follow the directions in this support article.
