My I phone 5 lower left icons and keyboard unresponsive. Restarted several times. Help!

I can access all of my icons in the upper potion and the browser icon as well,but anything in the bottom row (main icons) except for safari are all unresponsive. when my keyboard comes up, I can use most of the keys except in the lower left corner.  This has me not being able to use my phone and text functions except with the help of Siri.

Open the calculator app.  Tap all of the button while the phone is held up and down as normal and kind of note if any buttons don't work.  Then turn the iPhone sideways so you can see the scientific calculator and do the same, testing all the buttons.  If you can narrow the issue down to a specific portion of the screen not responding, then get your iPhone serviced.  If it is working completely in the Calculator App or if its changing the location that is affected, then its most likely software/firmware related and I would recommend restoring your iOS, then restoring from your backup.

  • Macbook Air Trackpad And Keyboard Unresponsive!! PLEASE HELP!

    Hello everyone, a while ago (about 2 months) my Macbook air started having troubles with its trackpack and keyboard. At random times they would become unresponsive and just stop working. They would work for like 1 second when the computer turns on but then it would stop. A couple weeks ago the problem stopped occuring the keyboard and trackpad were working fine and dandy. Of course until last night, I open the computer and the trackpad and keyboard won't work.. The keyboard lights are on and the power button works but nothing else does it is extremely frustrating! I did an SMC reset which worked for like 5 minutes until it stopped working again. I have done a NVRAM reset nothing, I have done everything that I have seen but I need a fix for this! The mac is running OS X 10.9.3 and I am pretty sure that is the latest. Please help me guys I am really getting frustrated with this undying problem ;/

    you don't need to disassemble your device.
    4 days is a lot.
    maybe rust has already been created.

  • After installing update, I repeatedly get message "your computer must be restarted to finish a previous upgrade," and I've restarted several times, and I when trying uninstall receive same message.

    Yesterday, I ran an update that was available. This morning when opening the browser, it stated that I needed to retsart my computer to complete the upgrade. I rebootted five times (at least) and it will not start Firefox. I tried uninstalling and planned to reload (apparently losing all of my favorites) and I can't do that--receive same message. I'm using IE today :(

    Run the Firefox program once as Administrator (right-click: Run as Administrator).
    If that doesn't help then do a clean reinstall.
    Download a fresh copy of Firefox ( http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html ) and do a reinstall of Firefox on top of the current version. You won't lose your personal data like bookmarks doing that ([http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder]).

  • Green emblem has appeared on the lower left desktop and won't go away.

    a few days ago, a small green emblem that looks like a D followed by a reversed C with an X through it has appeared on my desktop in the lower left corner and won't go away. it is on top of everything else on the desktop and is the first thing to appear on startup and the last thing to go on shutdown.
    it is there even during the startup screen when the apple appears.
    does anyone know what this is and how to correct whatever is occuring in my G4 running OSX.3.9?? thanks.
    G4 Quicksilver AGP Graphics 500   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    what do you know. i thought to myself, what would be the simplest solution here that we may be missing. and i tried another monitor. emblem gone.
    i guess my old sony VGA monitor has an issue that it is trying to tell me about. in any event, we're good for now. that is a relief.
    thanks so much for working with me on this.
    With the emblem displaying, hold down the Shift,
    Command, and 4 keys simultaneously and take a
    screenshot of that area of the screen; if it shows
    up, it is present in the computer's offscreen buffer,
    and is therefore caused by software. If not, it may
    be generated by a process which is drawing directly
    to the screen, or it is a hardware issue. Since it
    appears at the screen with the Apple logo, it isn't
    running under your account, as the contents of your
    home folder aren't even consulted until the progress
    bar which appears later disappears. It cannot be one
    of the Startup Items that may have been set up in the
    Accounts pane of System Preferences.
    Anything which would make a change at the Apple
    screen would need to be running as root; most often,
    this would require that you type in your
    administrator password, but there are other ways of
    having a process run as root.
    In addition, restart your computer from a Mac OS X
    installation CD and see whether or not the emblem
    appears; this may help determine where it is coming
    from.

    i have big problem i make update to my software  iso 7.12 in my iphone 4  but when i recive calling  and i want to cancel and recall again i phone is stop no working and i must restart it to work what can i do

    Basic Troubleshooting Steps when all else fails
    - Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, and swiping the App upward to make it disappear.  (For iOS 6 older, hold down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.)
    - Relaunch the App and try again.
    - Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    - Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
    - Reset All Settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
    - Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
    - Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137  For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
    - Test the issue after each step.  If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

  • "Bridge is running low on memory and should be restarted" error

    I am running Bridge CS4 on a DELL T-1650 with plenty of hard drive space.  I am having trouble with indexing / caching files.  My computer is connected to a large office server with a large amount of files that I need to be able to search.  I recieve a "Bridge is running low on memory and should be restarted" error each time I attempt to index the files on the server drive.  I have tried Purge and Cache, set the cache memory slider to max.  This is a very large amount of files (TB ) to index /cache.  I leave the computer running overnight to allow ample time, I nothing on my TB hard drive , and have 16GB of available RAM.  Any ideas?

    …My computer is connected to a large office server…
    Aha!  Working over a network is not supported by Adobe.
    This is the boilerplate text often used in connection to saving to a network (please NOTE the part where it explains that normally, it does work, but that it is impossible to troubleshoot someone else's network remotely, and that's why it's not supported by Adobe):
    If you are opening files over a network or saving them to a network server, please cease and desist immediately in the event you are currently experiencing problems with one or more files. Working across a network is not supported.
    See: 
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/406/kb406793.html
      Copy the CLOSED file from your server to your local hard disk, work on it, save it again to your local hard disk, close it, and copy the closed file back to the server.
         Of course, the fact that Adobe does not support working across a network does not necessarily mean it won't work.   It should.
        Adobe's position is that there are too many variables in a network environment for them to guarantee that everything will work correctly in every network, especially given the fact that if something does not work properly, it's probably the network's fault, and Adobe has no way of troubleshooting your network.
      If you can't work locally, you are on your own, and if something happens, you're on your own. If you must work from a server, make sure your network administrator is a competent professional.
    When problems arise, a lot of valuable work can be lost.

  • I drop my phone so i got a new one and back up everything... well now i have pics on my phone that i dont want and i cant delete them please help i tired hooking up to iTunes but still cant delete certain ones

    i drop my phone so i got a new one and back up everything... well now i have pics on my phone that i dont want and i cant delete them please help i tired hooking up to iTunes but still cant delete certain ones.... i can send them or post but nothing to delete them

    The pictures that are on your phone, that you don't want, did they appear there after syncing with iTunes? Or were they taken with the iphone's camera?
    Pictures synced from iTunes have to be removed by syncing again, but not having those pictures checked under the Photos tab in iTunes.

  • HT4623 just updated my iPhone 4s to ios6, now my phone won't turn back on. The apple logo comes on and sits then shuts off. I have held down the home button and on/off switch several times to reset, but same problem persists.

    Place iPhone on Wall Charger for at least 10 minutes. Then keep on charger and Reset, hold both home and power buttons until the iPhone begins to start, this can take about 20 seconds of holding both buttons while on charger. If still problem, open iTunes 10.7 on computer, connect iPhone to computer with USB Cable, hold both home and power buttons for about 20 seconds until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, then click Restore button of iTunes. If still problem, try DFU Mode Restore, here are the steps. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB cable. Hold both Home and Power buttons, after exactly 10 seconds release the Power Button, keep holding the Home button until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, usually about 20 seconds time. If the iPhone screen is black, blank this is DFU Mode. Click the Restore button of iTunes. DFU Mode can be difficult to enter sometimes, just keep trying. DFU Mode is a black, blank screen with iTunes saying Recovery Mode. If still problem and there is Warranty or AppleCare make Genius reservation and take to Apple for resolution.

  • I did force shutdown on my MacBook Pro (2006 year, 15.4"), so, when I tried to boot, it shows apple logo (as usual) and shuts down. When I booting MacBook with Option key pressed it shows lock icon and field for password. Please help me.

    Wait for advice on repairing a damaged filesystem.  Forceshutdown stops processs in mid-stream and leaves some parts not-valid.
    Do not proceed until you get that avice.

  • My ipad reacts slow on touchscreen. I have to really puss an icon to select it, and then tap it several times. Scrolling is impossible. And there is a voice with names all the actions I do / the buttons I touch. I have done a hard reset and itunesrecovery

    My ipad 2 does not react well to the touchscreen. I have to push the icons really firm (kind of selecting it) and then tapp them several times before something happens. And a voice tells me what buttons I touch. I have don the hard reset and a recovery through itunes. But the problems stays. Has anyone had the same set of problems? DirkiedH

    You have VoiceOver turned on. To turn off:
    iPhone: Configuring accessibility features (including VoiceOver and Zoom)
    Triple click the Home button should allow you to go to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn it off. Scroll with three fingers if necessary.
