if it is taking screenshots, the home button might be defective from the hardware side. Restoring "as new ipod" without using the latest backup could solve the problem if it would be software related.
If it's a hardware problem, you should contact Apple and get it serviced, or visit an Apple Store if you have one next to you.

  • Hi, so I pushed autofill because I thought that it would put music on my phone from a different iTunes library but it didn't work, and now the songs show up grey in my music on my phone and they won't play, but they are still there. What can I do?

  • Have synced iphone 4s but it is still not activated what can i do

    Tried for 5 hours to activate iphone 4s (att) wirelessly with no luck.  Connected to itunes and synced it just fine.  Phone is still not activated.  What can I do?

    Call ATT and have them make sure the ICCID and IMEI numbers from the phone are correctly on your account.  These appear on the sticker on the back of the phone's box.
    I had problems all day, and ended up making a genius bar appointment.  They quickly came to the conclusion that my phone was defective and handed me a new one.
    Good luck...

    I ran into this same problem earlier with my new iPod classic 160 gb. Turns out it could be your files show in iTunes but they aren't connected to the location those music tracks are actually located.
    Does this make any sense?
    You basically have to make sure iTunes is picking your songs from the right music folder via your preferences.
    Option 1: If your iTunes is completely wiped blank and your music is stored in a safe place, backed up, etc. You can do the following:
    Step A. Preferences > iTunes Media Folder Location > choose folder
    **** please be sure to pick a location that is new or different from where you ACTUALLY stored your music to prevent your files from deleting itself as it updates****
    For example, if you stored your music on your Desktop then you wouldn't choose your music folder to be the one in Desktop. You choose the folder where you want your music to go such as C:\My Music or in Mac, you choose the music folder.
    Step B. Once you choose the folder where all your music is stored and you check the box that says "Keep iTunes Media Folder organized" and "Copy Files to iTunes Media when adding to library."
    Step C. This is the part that will make sense. Drag the folder on desktop that houses all your music into iTunes. Because you checked the box "Copy Files to iTunes Media when adding to library," iTunes will copy all the backup music you dragged into the folder location you designated it in "Preferences > iTunes Media Folder Location > choose folder."
    ---- once all that is done, your itunes will have ALL your music tracks linked to the right location on your computer and your iPod will sync with as many or all of the music you desire.
    Hope this helps.

  • Icloud needs an Apple ID to sign in..BUT.it says: "This Apple ID is valid but is not an icloud account" What can i do? i do have apple id???

    icloud needs an Apple ID to sign in..BUT.it says: "This Apple ID is valid but is not an icloud account" What can i do? i do have apple id???

    I have the same problem and unfortunately the only way to get an iCloud ID is to set one up on an Apple device that uses the Apple OS opperating system.  If you don't own one, or can't qfford one, then you are simply shut out of using the iCloud.  Does it suck?  Yes.  Is there any solution other than buying an Apple device?  No.

    iPod touch not responding and has white screen. Tried to restore, drain battery and re-charge etc but still nothing. What can I do?

    Try what you have not tried so far. You may have tried all and the Apple store maybe in order.
    - 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 iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    Try turning off Siri in your Settings. Follow the steps on this page: http://www.imore.com/need-disable-notification-center-control-siri-access-lock-s creen-heres-how-ios-8
    If this doesn't help, try resetting your iPhone. This won't delete your data stored on the phone.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button
    Press and hold on the Home button
    Keep holding both buttons until the display turns off and back on with Apple logo on it.
    Alternatively, you may go to Settings - General - Reset - Reset All Settings

    Ignore the message. After Effects uses your CPU and RAM Primarily, not the GPU.
    You would only need NVIDIA CUDA for one rather insignificant function: the acceleration of ray-traced 3D compositions. Your AMD GPU will not ever work for this function as it does not use CUDA.
    The After Effects team is no longer working on this feature and suggests that you use Cinema 4D Lite (bundled) for your 3D work instead. There are also some great third party options for adding 3D elements to After Effects compositions like Invigorator Pro and Video Copilot Element 3D.
    Hope that makes things clearer.
    Thanks,
    Kevin
