My home screen bottom is not responding?
I have iPhone 4, and its been with me since November 2010, a week a go the home screen bottom was not responding from first press and I have to push it hard enough so it may respond.
I wanted to check on it, while am in UAE- Abu Dhabi.
Hi WilyFreddie,
Here's an article with instructions on troubleshooting touchscreen response issues like yours:
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Troubleshooting touchscreen response
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1827
The "Additional Information" section also contains some good tips on isolating how far the touch response is affected, although it sounds like you've got a pretty good idea of where the affected area is.
I hope this helps, have a good one!

Macbook pro is stuck on my home screen and will not respond to commands
Hi,
I just upgraded to Lion this week and came home and opened my Macbook pro. It immediately came on, but took a minute or so for the cursor for the mouse to appear. At the top of the screen "Finder" is highlighted. Problem is, no matter what program I click on, the computer will not acknowledge anything. Help!First try a Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least Ten seconds... (But can take Longer)... until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons
If no joy... Try a Restore...
1: Connect the device to Your computer and open iTunes.
2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.

Apple iPAD 2. Needs password to unlock iPAD; however there is a permanent keyboard displayed on the screen that does not respond to touch. iPAD switches on with button but does not turn off using it at moment. Can you help please?
Try a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider if that appears. See if that clears the glitch.

I have areas of my iPad screen that does not respond to touch. Is that normal? The areas are random and not always in the same place. Is there anything I can do to fix this problem?
Have you tried rebooting it by holding the home and on button until the Apple logo appears?

A reset may help: Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off button at the same time for approximately 10-15 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears release both buttons and await restart.

Wondering why the touch screen display did not respond suddenly untill restart? Tx..
Being an electronic/computer type device that can happen and often a Simple Restart or Reset (as described below) will often cure many such ills.... If the problem persists... Connect to iTunes on your Computer and Restore
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons... -
Got Iphone 6 updated to IOS 8.0.2, now I can't use it as everything became too large on screen and its not responding?
Hi ka_tin,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing. If the largeness you are seeing is related to the Accessability Zoom function (a feature that allows you to zoom in on the screen for people with vision issues), you may find the following page helpful:

My macbook pro (2010 13inch) is really laggy when I'm using apps like iTunes and safari. the arrow on the screen seems to not respond and is laggy and when viewing videos it can be really laggy. I just want to know if it was a problem i could fix, thanks.
You might start with:
Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time, then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
If the above reveals nothing helpful, then create a new user account. Log out of your account and log into the new account. Do the problems cease? -

When I am on Facebook, if I click on the link to view "Most Recent" or if I am clicking on another link, Firefox will first freeze and then will go to a black screen. At the top of the screen in the orange bar it says: Firefox,-Not Responding and the name of the app (Facebook), for example next to it. This black screen will stay that way for approx. 20 seconds then will go back to the page.
Hi Mick. Thanks for your response. Is there anything I can do to resolve the problem. I am ok on computers but not really tech savvy. I have Firefox 9.0.1 with Windows Vista Home Premium, 64 bit. Thank you for any additional help you can give me.

Screen Intermittently Does not Respond
iphone 6+ and i love it!! But i noticed, intermittently, the screen does respond to taps. I have to restart the iphone and it starts working. Anybody else seeing this issue?
Hello f0rgiven,
So it sounds like the iPhone responds normally, but after a while it may stop responding. Does that mean the home and sleep button stop responding too?
If it's just the tapping that sometimes stops, please go through this article,
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Troubleshooting touchscreen response
If the iPhone freezes up totally, then check this out.
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
Note there is a section for Buttons and Switches there.
Best regards,
