My iPad screen freezes and will not switch off for at least 5 mins?

my ipad screen freezes and will not turn off or function for at lease 5 mins then just closes down

Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank then power ON again in the normal way.] It is 'appsolutely' safe!

HELP ..N8..Phone freezes and will not turn off

Help me !!!!!!!!
Phone freezes and will not turn off ........ It still calling HELPPPPPPPP......
What can or should I do.....
Reply asap..... It's calling about 4 hours now........... I can hear any nokia tunes anymore !!!!
HELP MEEEEEEEEEEEE
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hmmm, I am not sure if there is another way. Since the battery is not removable for users and the 8 second -3 buzzes press don't work, I don't think there are another way to get it off.
Try connect the charger to it and do the 8 second press again, if not I think you will have to either let the battery run out untill it turns off it self or take it to a Nokia care point.

Reset the device by pressing and holding the home and power buttons for 15-20 seconds until the white Apple logo appears.

The update screen freezes and will not let me use the beta

Whenever I try and open the Beta, it tries to add my previous firefox extensions into the beta. The screen freezes and when I close it, I cannot open the beta again. I uninstall it and try again and the same thing happens. I tried restarting my computer and nothing happened.

Create a new profile exclusively for the 4.0 beta version and create a desktop shortcut with -P "profile" appended to the target to launch that profile.

Satellite A200 13M - black screen and will not switch off

Hello
I hve just purchased a *Satellite A200 13M*. At first power on, Windows Vista seemed to be correctly installed and internet connection (wifi) was working. The Norton programme was updated, and I was able to download and install OpenOffice. However, as OpenOffice had reported a small amount of disk space available (55 Go) I tried to see the Hard Disk in the browser.
I clicked on Configuration panel, and waited for it to open. At this point, the mouse-arrow froze. After some time, I tried Ctrl, Alt, Del, and the system asked if i wanted to shut down. I did so, and a new screen announced that Windows was shutting down. This screen then froze in its turn. I waited for some time, and then tried to switch off with the power button. The screen went black.
However, the blue power light remains on, the fan is still turning, but nothing i do seems to wake the machine up. I have called the maintenance service of the shop I bought it from (Darty) but they are overloaded and said they would call me back in a day or two (!). Is there anything I can do in the mean-time that might allow me to continue working with the machine.
Thank you
Tim Mason

Sounds strange! But it’s a computer and sometimes such machines do {color:#ff0000}strange{color} things ;)
Anyway… try to remove the battery from the laptop and disconnect the AC adapter.
Wait about 20-30min and connect everything again.
Then try to power up the notebook. If it’s a not a serious issue the notebook should starts again!

In the last 2 years my ipad(ipad 4 retina display) had never had any problem. Today while running A heavy 3D graphics app, it froze. Nothing could be reste it. Even holding the on-off button did not help. But when I tried your technique, it worked immediately.
Thanks dude.

My iPad will not charge and will not switch on, blank screen.....

My iPad will not charge and will not switch on, blank screen.....

Have you tried a soft-reset to see if that gets the iPad to turn on and/or to charge ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo will hopefully appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

I m having problems with my iPad 2 gestures. The screen enlarges and will not respond to my attempts to restore it.

I m having problems with my iPad 2 gestures. The screen enlarges and will not respond to my attempts to restore it. Is anyone else having this problem? What is causing it and what helps to restore normalcy?

Try double-tapping the screen with 3 fingers and see if that zooms it back out - and if it does set Settings > General > Accessibility > Zoom 'off'. If it doesn't zoom you back then try triple-clicking the home button and see if that turns it off, and if it does you can then change what a triple-click does via Settings > General > Accessibility > Triple-Click Home.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- 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.

Reset the phone like the manual says: hold the on/off switch and the home button simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. May take up to 30 sec

Firefox often freezes and will not close; also cannot open bookmarks

After operating normally for a few minutes firefox freezes and will not allow me to open legitimate pop-ups or access another website.
At the same time my bookmarks folder will not open.

Which security software (firewall) do you have?
Did you check the Firefox rules and make sure that is doesn't block Firefox?
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]

IPhone 4 freezes and will not restart or restore using iTunes.

iPhone 4 freezes and will not restart and cannot be restored using iTunes (unknown error 1602). My daughter's iPhone 4 did the same thing 10 days ago. Is this a software glitch? I replaced her phone, but I'm ready to switch to Android.

I am using Sophos Antivirus, but after disabling, still no luck. Tried the other USB port; no luck (same 1602 error). I'll take it to the Apple store tomorrow, but if they recommend replacing the phone I'm switching.
I went through this ~15 years ago when the Apple OS got so buggy and unstable that I had to abandon PowerBooks and switch to Windows. Oddly enough, this was after Jobs left the first time. I hope history isn't repeating itself.
Thank you for the suggestions.
