My screen wont register that i touch it. help?

i spilt orange juice on my ipod. i immediately wiped it off and put in rice. later i was advised to put it in the freezer so i did. the buttons work fine, when i click the home button to unlock it it will light up, but it's like the screen isnt registering that im touching it. it has revious water damage and i recetly had the cracked screen replaced. help?

Since Apple did not service your device, you might have to buy a new one. You may try to see if Apple still exchanges it for the service fee, after all what happened to your device: Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
Who told you to put it in the freezer?

Ipod touch not working at all and wont register to charge...help!!

My son has a 4th gen. ipod touch. He had it on sleep mode for an hour and now it isnt working at all. It wont turn on and it wont register when we try to charge it. Any suggestions on whats wrong with it??

READ THE WHOLE ARTICLE!!!
Hi there have a simple answer that works(i did it on my friends iPod touch 4 gen)
Plug the iPod into your sons iPod doc or wall adapter ...NOT PC OR MAC... And hold the sleep and menu button for THIRTY seconds.... This will wipe the iPod clear and will also leave it blank then do not use it at all in anyway shape or form. Wait for ios5 to come out( October the 12th 2011) and then Plug it into your PC or Mac that you originally had it synced with and it will work

My ipod screen wont respond to any touch

my ipos wont respond at all any fixes ? my disconeccted wire ?

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 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.

IPad 2's screen wont turn on, but touch works fine, and the iPad still works with a projector.

One of my teachers came to me for help today. Her iPad 2 works fine except for one thing. The display won't turn on. We know the iPad still works, as when we connect it to a projector via VGA, the iPad's screen shows up through the projector, and we can navigate through the ipad using touch on the iPad's digitizer.
Restoring the iPad didn't help, so I'd like to know if there's a simple fix for this, or if we should take this to the Apple Store.
If we have to the apple store, how much would it cost for someone from the genius bar to fix it? The iPad's warranty has expired.

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Not normal. Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

How do i restore my ipod if iTunes wont register that i have my iPod plugged in?

im trying to get my ipod to actually work and someone recommended that I restore.

Did you try to put it in recovery mode as explained in the article? You may have to try a couple of times until the "connect to iTunes screen" shows up and your device shows up in iTunes.

I dropped my ipod in water and now the screen wont respond to my touch, would resetting it make it work again?

I can still see everything and it's charging but I read somewhere that if I reset it that it would work again but I'm not sure if that is true and I don't know how to reset it

That happened to my mom's phone. but she dropped it in tea:( If I were you, the best bet would be to put it in a bowl of rice, so that it is covered, and leave it there for a few days. The rice will hopefully soak up all of the water that's in your iPod. Hope this helps!

Dropped my iPad2, didn't break but screen is now unresponsive to touch. help?

need help

If it's been like that for a quite a while then try a soft-reset and see if that gets it to boot up properly : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should reappear and it will hopefully boot up.
If not then try recovery mode and restore to your backup : If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

I just dropped my ipod in a puddle by accident :( and know it wont play music unless i have head phones and my screen wont be bright can you please help me

i need a way to recover my ipod from water damge how can i fix it

Do not use, turn on or charge you iPOd until it is dry. To dry:
How to fix a wet iPod or iPhone | eHow.com
After drying try the standard fixes:
Reset
Restore from backup
Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

IPhone 5 screen wont turn on. (Need help or info, please and thank you.)

So i got an Iphone 5, and i accedently droped it in the sink. i took it out, whipped it off, i put it in my pocket and left it alone.
the next day the screen was not working, moments later, it(Iphon5) turned off. tried turnng it back on but it wouldnt work.
so, again i left it. everything still works, its just that the screen wont turn on, i could still play music snapshot stuff,
but my screen wont tun on.
I NEED HELP.

I don't beleive this is a known problem and you should probably bring your phone to a local Genius Bar (make an appointment here) as this is likely a hardware issue (a problem with your phone realizing that you removed it from your ear).
If you're willing to tinker with it a bit, you can determine if this is a software issue by backing up your iPhone (separately ensure your photos, videos and music is backed up) and then "Restore" your phone. If the restoration solves the problem, you're dealing with a software issue. If the problem still exists, you're almost definitely dealing with a hardware issue.

A problem has been detected and Windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.

If this is your first time you've seen this stop error screen,
restart your computer. If this screen appears again follow
these steps:
Check to make sure any new hardware or software is properly installed.
If this is a new installation, ask your hardware or software manufacturer
for any Windows updates you might need.
If problems continue, disable or remove any newly installed hardware
or software. Disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing.
If you need to use safe mode to remove or disable components, restart
your computer, press F8 to select advanced startup options, and then
select Safe mode.

I would just like to follow up on deusexmachina's solution and explain how to delete that file without booting from the drive.
Boot from a Windows 7 disc/USB and after it loads press SHIFT+F10 to bring up the command line. From here, you can navigate to the "C:\Windows\System32\codeintegrity\" directory and delete the "bootcat.cache" file and reboot.
If you do not have Windows 7 bootable media to boot from then you can download the ISO from here and burn to a disc or use a USB drive:
http://www.mydigitallife.info/official-windows-7-sp1-iso-from-digital-river/
Another option would be to pull the physical drive from the computer and access it using another desktop or laptop to manually delete the "bootcat.cache" file as well.
Afterwards, please upgrade to Service Pack 1, so this issue cannot repeat itself.

My ipod screen wont respond to touch

My ipod was working just fine last night, then today I tried to listen to it and the screen wont swipe to unlock or anything.... What do I do? I've rebooted, restored it, everything, but it wont respond to touch.

If you restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

I NEED HELP!! WHAT SHOULD I DO?!? there are no cracks, so it puzzles me even more!!!
IPod Touch 5, ios 7.0.6.

Place the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs and then restore via iTunes:
For PC
RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
or
http://joshuabailey1997.wordpress.com/2010/09/02/recboot-v1-3/
If necessary:
Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
and
RecBoot tip
RecBoot may have problems on 64X windows, then try:
Tenorshare ReiBoot – Enter & Exit iPhone, iPad, iPod Recovery Mode with a Single Click
For MAC or PC
The Firmware Umbrella - TinyUmbrella
Installs blootware on PC too
Maybe this:
If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone and use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
You can also wipe the iOS device by installing the FindMyiPhone app on another iOS device and using that app to wipe the device.

Is there another way to close apps other than deleting them from the multitask bar.....I have a small crack in the bottom of my screen and that part of the screen does not recognize the touch. :(

Is there another way to close apps other than deleting them from the multitask bar.....I have a small crack in the bottom of my screen and that part of the screen does not recognize the touch.

There's generally no reason to be closing them that way at all. The apps you see in the recents bar are just that, apps that you used recently. Most of them are doing absolutely nothing. The only apps that are really doing anything in the background are ones that play music and ones that are using location services. Just leave them be.
Best of luck.
