ITouch Screen is unresponsive

My iPod touch 2rd generation has a weirdly unresponsive touchscreen. I didn't do anything to it and it seems that the entire middle section of the heat sensor screen is unresponsive. I tried to restore and reinstall and everything but that just didn't work. One reason being that whenever I try restoring it from iTunes, my computer freezes. I've also tried reinstalling iTunes and it always seemed to have the same problem. I managed to restore it manually using the "Erase All Content and Settings" from the Setting's App. And now I've loaded on back my apps and music. Since I haven't done anything it comes up with the edit home screen dismiss part and I'm stuck on that. Any help?

Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore the iPod from backup
- Restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod.
If still problem, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

ITouch Screen Unresponsive

Hello, around 2 weeks ago my iTouch was accidently dropped into a bag of a drink (Whoops.) and I did the iTouch was completly unresponsive for that day and it wouldnt even turn on. I then procceded to put it in rice for a week. When I took it out of the rice I let in sit for a couple days. Then today, I full charged it, the bottoms now all worked except, the slide to unlock button on the screen would not move. I tried a full reset of my iPod which didnt help at all and theres kind of a diagonal whitish line going through the slide to unlock button (the line is very visible) What can I do to get the touch screen working again? Thanks!

It is more than likely affected negatively due to the moisture (drink) that must have seeped into the interior of the iPod and made the screen partially responsive.
I think a visit to the Apple Store for evaluation is the best bet.

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 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.

My iPod Touch 3rd Gen is having problems with the touch screen being unresponsive, too responsive, freezing and constantly resizing. Is this a common problem? Is there a fix?

My iPod Touch (3rd Gen) is having problems with the touch screen being unresponsive, too responsive, freezing and constantly resizing. It varies between not responding when I tap the screen and acting as if I double-tap or tap and hold when I tap. Every so often it freezes for a minute or so and then comes back. The scren is constantly changing sizes too such that I often can't see most of the top status bar or other edges. This makes typing almost impossible, ruins most games and generally makes everything difficult, but otherwise the iPod is working correctly. Powering off, shutting down apps, letting it sit have not worked. This has happened once before months ago, but the issue resolved itself somehow. Is this a common problem? Is there a fix?

Try this for the freezing

Or if they don't work put it into recovery mode

Then restore

IPhone 6 plus screen becomes unresponsive!!!

I bought my IPhone 6 plus when released. I received it by mail on October 17. now the phone was perfect,it worked the way it should and the screen was perfect also. The only problem i had with it was that whenever i would close an app through the multitask menu my screen would flash blue but i would disregard it. 2 months go by and everything is perfect. it wasn't until late December when i began to have an issue with the phone. My screen would become unresponsive to touch and when it did respond it will be completely way off from where i touched it. i will also get this gray bar at the top of my screen when it happens. this happens almost all the time throughout the day. its getting to the point to where my phone is almost unusable. I haven't dropped my phone and it hasn't came into contact with water either. I have done a factory reset and set my phone up as new and it didn't work either. I just want to know if i am the only one having this issue or are there other people with this problem.

You have a router that assigns IP addresses in sequential order.
Always turn your devices on in the exact same order and you will avoid the message.
It is not a serious problem.
If your router supports DHCP reservations based on MAC address of the devices that will resolve the problem.

I updated to the ios 7.1.1 on my iphone 5 this morning and now the screen is unresponsive. Is anyone else having this problem? Everything was working fine until this morning when the update finished. Did a reset with no luck. I took it to the carrier store that I bought it from and they said take it to Apple store (180 miles away) HA.
Thanks

HT201210 My itouch screen froze showing "plug to itunes" after trying to update to iOS6. Is there any ways to export all the pictures from it before restoring?

My itouch screen froze showing "plug to itunes" after trying to update to iOS6. It still can be turned on and off. But the screen froze showing that message. I perhaps need to restore it. But is there any ways to export all the pictures from it before restoring?

Only if y can get the iPod out of recovery mode with the program. Otherwise you will have to restore via iTunes which erases the iPod.

Lost "music" icon on itouch screen?

Thanks Splooshkid - found my music in "search", but still no music icon on my itouch screen

Is it in a folder or on another screen?

Ad pages open on their own and screen is unresponsive.

I have even erased my iPad and started over. At times the screen is unresponsive. Other times, the iPad starts typing on its own, pages flash open and closed. Even pages I've never opened, to my knowledge, start popping up.
Hardware issues?

If you erased and restored the iPad, then I would assume that it is a hardware issue. Make an appointment at an. Apple Store and ask them to take a look at your iPad.
