My i pad is not responding to touch

My ipad is not responding to touch.  It is very slow and most of the time does not work at all.  THis problem occured a few days after I updated to the newest version.  It is an ipad1

I have an iPad 1 as well that I updated when the iOS was first released a few weeks ago and I think that the new update really sparked my iPad into "new life" again. It's so hard to tell what will happen when you update - ideally the performance of the device should improve - and not fall off.
Have you tried closing any/all open/running apps in the recents tray? Close them all and restart - see what happens.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • Droid x2 phone dial pad does not respond to touch on call

    When on a call and asked to input numbers even to get to voicemail phone freezes and will not accept certain numbers like 1 (but it may take an 8) or screen goes black or both. Cannot get my voicemail from this phone. Can call in to my cellphone number from another phone and stop message and then get the vm, but from the droid x2 cellphone it is impossible. Obviously very unsatisfractory. Anyone got a fix?

    As Ann pointed out, you are running GingerBread - the latest update. You don't remember clicking on "ALLOW UPDATE" and the process of installing it?
    Anyway, so you've had this problem since DAY 1 of getting the phone?????  Too bad you didn't take it back immediately as they would have probably given you another phone .. but now you're pretty stuck with troubleshooting it or getting it swapped with a CPO.   If you contact verizon, they will like have you try booting in SAFE MODE 1st, just to rule out 3rd party APPs causing the issue. Then a Factory Reset.

  • Keyboard and Touch pad is not responding

    I have one Lenovo G450 with Windoxs 7 which was working fine. But suddenly I am having some strange behavior.
    Like, when I am starting my laptop then its keypad or touch pad is not responding. After couple of shut down/restart (can't figure out how many times, actually its not constant) the keypad or touch pad is responding and working fine. Again when I shut down and try to start sometime later then having the same problem.
    Please help.

    Hi
    Welcome to Lenovo Community
    Please check the following options .
    Try entering the Bios using F2 Button , If you are able to enter Bios
    Load Setup defaults .
    Then try to Load system to safe mode by pressing F8 key & check if you are able to use the Keyboard and Mouse
    If it is working fine then try to uninstall the devices from device manager . Restart the system and boot to normal mode
    and verify the keyboard & touchpad is responding .
    Hope This Helps
    Cheers!!!

    If the Reset does not work, try this.
    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data or Cache. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

    My Safari screen is grayed out.  It does not respond to touch. How can I restore it back to life?

    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Cache. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and slide to shut down. then hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears to start up.
    You can also reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep button and home button at the same time until the Apple logo appears (takes about 10 seconds) - ignore the red slider.

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

    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.

  • Windows 8.1 hyperlinks not responding to touch screen

    I was running with the beta version 3 34. Running on surface pro 2 windows 8.1. Hyperlinks on pages do not respond to touch, however I am able to scroll up and down and do other things. Under mouse control the hyperlinks are slow to respond. I just uninstalled the beta and downloaded the current version of the site. Having the same problem. Explorer works find, both the app and the full version. Firefox was working fine until an update yesterday. Suggestions please.

    Hello, try '''disabling graphics hardware acceleration'''.
    You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
    Then perform these steps:
    Open Firefox ''Options'' window as follows:
    * Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and select ''Options''
    * In the Firefox Options window, click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select ''General''.
    * In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
    * Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
    Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
    * [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
    * [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • With ios 8.3 ipad mini apps sometimes do not respond when touched

    a new problem occurred with ios 8.3 ipad mini applications sometimes do not respond when touched Fix it in ios 8.4

    If it has NEVER been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures:
    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, read this.
