  • HT1414 My ipad has locked-up, it has frozen while running an app, and will not respond to any button,  what do I do?

    My ipad has locked-up, it has frozen while running an app, and will not respond to any button,  what do I do?
    It simply stays on the same screen image, and does not respond to anything.  When I plug it into itunes, there is no indication of its presence.
    The ipad's clock has also stopped.

    Try a reset:
    Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 second until you see the Apple logo.

    Hi Goofy Goat,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like you have done some great troubleshooting for your iPod nano that is not responding. In this situation, if resetting it did not resolve, I would suggest restoring the iPod back to its factory settings and then sync your content back onto it from iTunes. Please use the following article as a resource for restoring.

  • My music screen has frozen and will not respond to my touch

    my 32g iPod touch will not respond to my touch while i am in my music library.  i can navigate through my iPod and access my apps, calendar, etc., but as soon as i try to get into my music and browse through it, nothing.  it has done this before, but it usually "snaps out of it", and eventually begins to work properly.  i purchased this iPod brand new in march 2012, so in my opinion it should not be acting up.  anyone have any idea as to what is going on with it? 

    Try the standard fixes:
    - Reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod

  • Phone has frozen and will not switch on

    Twitter was not working so I unistalled it from Iphone.  Reinstalled it but the phone then froze.  Turned phone off but now it will not switch back on and is frozen on the apple screen.  Help

    Connect iPhone to Wall Charger and Reset, hold both Home and Power buttons until the iPhone begins to restart. Usually takes less than 20 seconds time of holding both buttons.
    If this does not work you may need to Restore the iPhone Firmware. If you decide to Restore the Firmware, connect iPhone to computer with iTunes open, hold both Home and Power buttons until the iPhone is recognized in Recovery Mode, Restore the Firmware. Again usually takes about 20 seconds of holding both buttons.

  • My iPad will not respond or turn off

    iPad will not turn off using sleep/ toggle.
    Siri is the only thing that works.
    No apps are showing at all.

    A reset may help. Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off buttons for approximately 10-15 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears, release both buttons.
    No content is affected by this procedure.

  • Ipod frozen. Will not restore or turn off

    I dropped my ipod early this morning and there's a dent on the back and it stays at the song I was listening to when it dropped.
    It won't come off screen and I have tried everything to get it restored.
    My media tech teacher told me to go ahead and send it to Apple but I want to check with everyone here first before I send my money to Apple.
    Is there anyhing else that I can do and has someone else experienced this?

    Ok Ok. Here let me explain it more in detail because I have to sleep now.
    The Ipod is on the USB Port. It still has the song on it. No "Do Not Disconnect" or Sad Ipod or whatever.
    It still has the song on the screen, the time when it stopped. Its frozen. I tried to restart it and restore it but there is no luck.
    I also found my click wheel is movable now. Everytime I push it up really hard, it gets stuck and I can't push anything until I push it back down. Could that have something to do with it?

    Hi deamayfield,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your Music app is unresponsive, try restarting/resetting your iPhone:
