  • HT1414 my iPhone 4 with updated iOS software is unresponsive to touch AND will also NOT turn off making it impossible for me to restore original factory settings. any suggestions? thank you!! i'm desperate!

    Try a reset: hold down the home button along with the power button until you see the Apple, then let go.

  • 5S screen is occasionally unresponsive to touch, and interaction is sluggish. All since updating to iOS 8.

    Ever since I updated to iOS 8, and all subsequent updates (currently running iOS 8.1.1) my iPhone 5S is considerably slower. Apps hesitate when I switch between them and sometimes crash entirely. Sometimes my screen is entirely unresponsive to touch and I have to tap numerous times before it works. I have restarted, i've done resets, I've backed up to the cloud, erased phone and restored from back up. The problems still persist.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    FYI. I've chatted with Apple support online. They suggested I backup and restore using iTunes, which I've done already. SO to humor the tech, I did it again. If it doesn't work this time, then I need to bring it into an Apple store to be diagnosed and possible repair/replacement.
    Hope this helps any readers with a similar problem

  • My iphone 5 and 2 ipod touches will not show up on my itunes

    My iphone 5 and 2 ipod touches will not show up on my itunes when i connect them to my laptop.  I have tried different cables, restarted the mobile thing, uninstalled and reinstalled itunes, it is only on my laptop that has Windows 8. My dekstop with Windows 7 is fine will recognize them.  This has been going on for over a week.. What is going on?

  • I have my iphone 4 and an ipod touch on the same apple ID.  My daughter tried to change the settings on the ipod so that she could facetime on both her ipod and iphone which is on a separate Apple ID.  I no longer have a 3G connection.

    I have an iphone 4 and an ipod touch on the same apple ID.  My daughter who uses the ipod tried to change the apple ID on the ipod to be the same with her apple ID on her own Iphone so that she can use facetime on both devices.  Not sure what she did but my 3G connection is no longer working.

    Changing Facetime settings on an iPod will have no affect on cellular settings on an iPhone. Something else is going on there. If she did not change any settings on the phone, then nothing she did could affect your celluar 3G.

    I have Mac itunes and a touch 2G.  My wife has Win7 and touch 4G (both iOS 4.2.1). She got a new iphone, I now have her touch 4G, and am trying to sync it to my Mac itunes.  The music and videos sync to the 4G, but apps & podcast will not. All are checked to sync.  During sync, it gets to "determining apps to sync"  then immediately goes to "finished syncing".   No apps or podcasts from my Mac itunes are on the touch 4G.

    You can only sync to one iTunes library but you can manage music and videos among different computer/libraries.
    It appears that you are trying to sync with a different library.
    - If you want to make the Mac you syncing computer:
    --- Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by:
    iOS: How to back up
    --- Restore the iPod from that backup. Note that synced media like apps and music are not in included in the backup.

  • Iphone 2.0 for ipod touch

    Because it's for the iPhone, you need the iPod touch 2.0 software, which is different.

  • How do I restore my iPhone? It has iPod touch information on it (pictures, keyboard is different - no more special symbols, etc.)

    How do I restore my iPhone? It has iPod touch information on it, like old pictures that I had on my iPod touch (which I don't use anymore), and the keyboard has changed. Before I could use special icons and symbols, and now it's just basic (no shapes or anything). Is there any way to restore my iPhone to the condition that I bought it in? I don't want to have to buy another one, since I just got it.
    I also recently changed my Apple ID and password...could this have anything to do with getting my iPhone messed up?

    Apps and other media from iTunes can only be used with the iTunes account they were bought with.

  • Turn My iPhone 4 into an iPod Touch?

    Hi,
    I'm sorry if this question has been asked (seems like it would be a fairly common question). I've used the search feature, as well as Google, but most of the threads/answers I've found seem to be "one-off" type of questions that don't really address the general issue.
    Anyway, I had an iPhone 4. I just bought a new iPhone 5s. I simply want to turn the iPhone 4 into an iPod touch so that I can continue to use it to listen to music and podcasts while I'm exercising (seems like a better option than to risk dropping my brand new iPhone). What do I need to do this? Do I need to remove the SIM card? If so, how do I do this?
    Thanks.

    Hi All,
    I too have a question on this. I have upgraded to the 5s and want to give my iphone 4 to my daughter to use as an ipod touch with no sim. I'm having difficulty setting up imessage and facetime on the device? I've followed a few posts an have erased all contents and all settings, put the old sim in (it is still active with network), set the phone up using itunes account with sim in with no success.... Waiting for activation...... is the status
    You could/can use imessage and facetime on my old ipod touch so am I right in thinking that you can also do this with the iphone 4 with no sim?
    If so how..............

    Hi jaredfox06,
    If I understand the issue correctly, you have recently purchased a used iPhone and you do not see your Apple TV in the control center in order to AirPlay.  To troubleshoot this issue please follow the steps outlined below.
    Try these steps first
    Make sure that you have the latest software on your iOS device and Apple TV.
    Make sure that both devices have Wi-Fi turned on.
    On your iOS device, go to Settings > Wi-Fi.
    On your Apple TV, go to Settings > General > Network.
    If you're trying to use peer-to-peer AirPlay, make sure that both devices have Bluetooth turned on.
    On your iOS device, go to Settings > Bluetooth.
    On your Apple TV, go to Settings > General > Bluetooth.
         If you don't see AirPlay in Control Center
    When an AirPlay-enabled device is available, you'll see AirPlay in Control Center on your iOS device.
    If you don't, try these steps:
    Restart your iOS device and Apple TV.
    Connect both devices to the same Wi-Fi network.
    On your iOS device, go to Settings > Wi-Fi.
    On your Apple TV, go to Settings > General > Network. If your Apple TV is connected using Ethernet, make sure that it’s plugged in to the router you're using for Wi-Fi.
    On your Apple TV, make sure that AirPlay is turned on. Go to Settings > AirPlay.

    Have a good one,

  • How do i set up my old iPhone 3 as a iPod touch

    i want to use my iphone 3 as a ipod touch can i do this

    Yes, do as Ocean20 suggests of putting it into airplane mode but then switch Wi-Fi back on.  You will have all the functionality of an iPodtouch with network access over WiFi.

  • What does the iphone have that the ipod touch doesn't?

    i was just wondering what the iphone has that the ipod touch doesn't if there is anything. (Apart from the obvious phone and maybe the camera)

    The ipod touch has most of the same functions as the iphone with the exception of the phone, the camera, and the gps (and any features that require those functions). My wife uses one as an ipod, a very nice device, especially if you are normally in range of a wifi network.

  • White, opaque, unresponsive to touch.

    I have tried rebooting several times and I keep getting the same white, opaque, unresponsive to touch screen. Help?

    I had the exact same problem a few days ago,
    My screen dimmed and did not responed to touch.
    What I did is:
    clicked the home button 4 times,
    Them I held the home button and the lock/sleep button for about ten seconds,
    The Apple logo appeared
    And my screen was okay
    If this does not work: let the battery run out compleatly
    and then charge it up again.
    once it is full enough to show the lock screen,the screen should be back to normal.
