Hi, my touchscreen is not responding after my new update to windows 8.1 i have tried going to the pen and touch setting but it has no option there, i tried the device manager but i dont see the mouse and other pointing device instead i see mice and other pointing device and it only has one option the alps pointing device, i tried configuring it but i need to touch the screen to do that, i dont know what else to do i miss the touch gesture and really need help fixing it. Thanks.

Have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Iphone 4s touchscreen stops responding after a minute or so, I then have to wait at least a minute before the touchscreen works again but soon after it stops responding. I have tried hard reset, turning it off over night, etc

Hello,
I had that problem as well and the apple support suggested to turn off the LTE-mode to have a running system and try to exchange the micro-sim by my provider.
THAT was not an option!
BUT it seems to solve my problem in the following way after trying a lot of possibilties:
In the menue properties/help (don't know the exact english word, because I run my phone in german)
I switched on the nice feature 'flash LED' by incomming calls, msgs, and push infos.
Today the flash feature was responding to different push notes very slowly.
By switching this feature off the LTE-mode-tochscreen-not-responding-problem disappeared.
We tried this on a other iphone, not having the metioned problem, and switched the LED-flash:
the problem appeared. Switching the LED-flash off: problem disappeared!
It seems to be a bug that the LED will hint Calls and MSGs in combination with the LTE mode!
treated my phone very hard today to double check, but its still ok.
@Apple:
Please fix that issue in the next update.
Hope, this helps you guys as well.

Pre2 gets hot; touchscreen stops responding

I'm finding that my Pre2 gets 'warm' particularly when using the touchstone charger. Once it gets warm, the touchscreen stops responding. Restarting the device doesn't typically help, but normal service is restored once the 'phone cools down again having been removed from the touchstone.
By 'warm' I mean 'pleasantly warm in the hand' rather than 'frighteningly hot', but I've never noticed a 'phone get particularly warm before.
Is this a common fault / feature? Any advice gratefully received ...
Post relates to: Pre 2 p102ueu (Unlocked EU)

Thanks for the replies ... at least it's not just me!
As you say, Internet access is also an issue - five minutes of use seems to require five minutes of rest to cool down again. It's just not usable like that ...
The 'unresponsiveness' appears to afflict the keypad as well as the touchscreen - altogether pretty disappointing.

Iphone Touchscreen stopped responding when a call came. weird problem.....

My iPhone was working fine. A call came and the touchscreen was not working. Touchscreen replacement was advised. I pressed the top right buttom and home button simultaneously for a restart and touchscreen was not working. I didn't have money so I brought it back home. After 3 weeks I put it for charge on my PC and first it showed charging sign...and then suddenly it asked for my password to unlock and the touchscreen was working fine. I charged fully and the iPhone worked perfectly fine for a day.
When I put it for charge the other day, the touchscreen stopped working. Same problem. I tried to restore factory setting option in which everything will be erased and copied again but error 1604 is coming.
Do I have to change the touchscreen? I don't think the touchscreen is damaged. Maybe software problem. Please help me, guide me.
Thank you in advance!

Well, the dropping may have damaged something, perhaps related to the lock mechanism. Just have it checked in a Care Center.

Whole touchscreen stops responding - major problem!

phone is one month old, has had no bumps or knocks, and suddenly today the touchscreen stopped working. no software updates had been done. all other buttons worked fine, but whole touchscreen behaved like an ordinary piece of glass. reboot only temporary fix, kept freezing within minutes or less, but home button & sleep button always worked - eventually reset whole phone with fresh software in itunes, took hours to set up again, lost all apps layout which is a total pain - and same problem is occuring!
anyone with a fix please reply (hint: this means YOU apple) as i just can't afford my super expensive phone to keep acting like a brick when i'm trying to use it!

thanks for the heads-up re:apple... silly me thinking apple techs might read this thread on an apple website
weekend here now so will head into the store if still doing it on monday... ive read a lot of 3GS users having this problem but not come across any other iphone 4 users as yet. if this problem sounds familiar, please comment, & state what you did to resolve it

IdeaCentre B530 Touchscreen Stopped Responding

Hello,
I've had my B530 for roughly a month and a half, and suddenly, today, the multi-touch feature has completely stopped responding. I have tried restarting the system, calibrating Pen and Touch, troubleshooting, using my fingernail, etc. Unfortunately nothing seems to work. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks.

Touchscreen stops responding in Mail app?

This started happening yesterday - haven't recently updated iOS (still on 5.1.1) or installed any new apps etc....
I'll open the Mail app, be browsing messages etc, and all of a sudden I can't type or click any of my messages or any other buttons in the app, however if I press the home button I can use everything else as normal... if I quit the process and then re-open the Mail app it works fine again for a little while but then stops......??
Any ideas?

I also bought a Dell Inspiron 15 7537 and I had the same problem as OP, but on Fedora 21 64-bit with Gnome 3.14. I haven't tried any other distros or DEs. However, both Arch and Fedora run systemd, so I think my solution work the same on both systems. I fixed it by doing the following steps:
1. Create a script that reloads the kernel module hid_multitouch.
$ sudo mkdir /opt/touchscreen-fix
$ cd /opt/touchscreen-fix
$ echo '#!/bin/sh
/sbin/rmmod hid_multitouch && /sbin/modprobe hid_multitouch' | sudo tee resume.sh
$ sudo chmod +x resume.sh
Executing this script after a resume will make the touchscreen work again. However, it will of course not run automatically after a resume.
2. Schedule the script to run after resume.
Create the systemd service file:
$ echo '[Unit]
Description=Fix touchscreen after resume
After=suspend.target
[Service]
Type=simple
ExecStart=/opt/touchscreen-fix/resume.sh
[Install]
WantedBy=suspend.target' | sudo tee /etc/systemd/system/touchscreen-fix.service
Enable it:
$ sudo systemctl daemon-reload
$ sudo systemctl enable touchscreen-fix
Done! And that's all! I'm not sure if you also might need to restart the computer for it to work.
To accomplish this I used the following resources:

TS1702 Touchscreen stops responding on fast movements

Hi guys,
I'm using the latest IPad and I am very happy with the device ) But I noticed a strange behavior: When I'm moving my finger very fast on the screen it sometimes "loses" contact - as if my finger (still on the screen) would not be there on screen anymore. Another touch with the same finger and tadaa, it continues to respond.
For example: When using a painting app and I move my finger very fast from one side of the screen to another side the line I painted only follows half of the way. Or if I'm moving on the home screen very fast from one side to another the screen suddenly stops and does not react on my finger anymore.
I already rebooted (sleep + home button), but it changed nothing. And it only happens when moved very fast.
Question: Is this a normal behavior and based on technical circumstances? Or is my device simply... uhm.... "broken"? Hope someone can help me
Ama

Sounds like you have VoiceOver (one of the accessibility features) 'on' - if you turn the volume up do you get a voice saying what you are tapping ? If you do 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.
If that doesn't turn it off then you can either turn it off directly on the iPad (you need to use a tap-to-select and then double-tap to activate/type process and 3 fingered scrolling) to go into Settings > General > Accessibility and turn VoiceOver 'off', or you can do it by connecting to your computer's iTunes : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4064

Why does my iPad 3rd gen. stop responding after 5 minutes of use? The home button still works but the touchscreen doesn't react.

This is getting incredibly annoying. I've had this thing for 3 months and I can't use it for more than 5 mins at a time because the touchscreen stops responding!!! I tried restoring it to its factory defaults and it still keeps messing up.

Make Sure iOS is updated to the latest version
Reboot the device by pressing and holding down the home and sleep/wake buttons (power) at the same time until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings
If that doesn't work, then update iTunes on computer, backup device to iTunes, then restore the device.

Finally, set up a repair

Lenovo Flex 10 touchscreen stops working after 1 hour of use.

Just bought a new Lenovo Flex 10 from a retail and it works perfectly except that after an hour of use the touchscreen stops working, the computer still works ok, but only with the mousepad. The notebook came with Windows 8.1, and I haven't installed any program on it. I need an urgent response please, since i've been looking for days in the community and other support pages, and still can't get a satisfactory answer and the period to get the a refund are about to expire.
Thanks in advance.

hi riglesias,
Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
Once the Touchscreen stops responding, can you check the following:
1. Open System Properties and see if the Touch functionality is still there
- Link to picture (Touchscreen feature is not detected)
- Link to picture (Touchscreen feature is detected)
If the Touchscreen feature is detected, proceed to Step 2.
2. Press the Windows key‌ +R, type devmgmt.msc and press Enter. On the Device Manager, navigate to the Human Interface Devices section and uninstall anything that says HID-compliant device (this is the driver that controls the touchscreen). When finished, reboot the system and observe.
3. If the Touchscreen is still not working, hold the Shift Key and hit the restart button inside Windows and you should be able to see the image below then try to tap on the screen to test and observe. I
If the touch capability is still not functioning, I recommend you contact lenovo for service.

Touchscreen stopped working on two areas

I have a problem with my pre, the touch screen stopped working on two areas. The first one happened like a week ago, then I used webOS to restore my pre but it didn't work and today the touch screen stopped working on other area, is there any fix to this problem?
Using Paintr app I located the zones that are not working: http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb219/alvaro_qc/photos-temp-0jpg-6.jpg
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

Hello and welcome to the forums;
If your touchscreen has stopped responding in certain areas, this is a hardware issue, not a software one. I would recommend visiting a local service center to look into replacing your device either under your 1-year warranty, or insurance if outside the warranty period.
Hope this helps,

Touchscreen stops working within an app

I've only owned my iPad for a few days, but this keeps happening, usually in the App Store, but sometimes other apps.
After a while, some (not all) of the touchscreen buttons in an application stop responding. I can remedy this by forcibly closing the app (ie double tap home button, hold down the app icon, and tapping the cross to close it).
I never had this problem with the iPhone. Is it a known issue to the iPad / iOS 5.0.1?

No it is not a known problem on the iPad.
Have you tried either of these basic troubleshooting steps? Sometimes all it takes is a reboot and things will go back to normal.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
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.

Why is my iPhone 5c touchscreen not responding?

My new phone's touchscreen has stopped responding other that a small line at the top and the bottom. Due to this I am unable to reset the phone or turn it off to try and resolve the issue. What's wrong and what do I need to do?

Hi there Bonnieelizabeth,
I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below.

Powervault 124T stop responding at a precise hour

Good day to all.
I apologize if my English seems strange but I'm French and not that fluent.
We have a LTO4 powervault 124 T that is behaving strangely : the network stops responding at 3:30 PM GMT and doesn't restart until we power cycle the device. But the backup is working perfectly so there is no issue regarding data backup. The problem is limited to the network.
I tried to change the IP address, toggle between DHCP lease and fixed IP address, no result.
Depending on the time we cycle power, the network stops the same day or the day after, but always at about 3:30 GMT (it can be a few minutes before that time, but it's the time when I receive the alarm from our monitoring system).
I found that if I telnet to the PV address, I get an response from a 'pinon debug terminal' but I don't know the password.
So my questions are :
Can someone here direct me to a possible solution to get the network back to a stable state ? I think about upgrading the FW but I'm surprised when I read that the file I can download from Dell website is 320 Mb big.
How to know the telnet password ? Not sure it can help me troubleshooting the problem but I'm curious to see what this terminal can provide.
Best regards.

Hi again,
I still suspect a faulty USB port.
Your response is still a bit confusing, so just to be sure:
- Did you also try a USB port on the backside of your Mac?
(if your keyboard is usually connected to the frontside, and you normally plug the mouse into the keyboard, it doesn't help to try testing it by plugging it directly in the front port, if this port is faulty, it's still the same port. If this is your situation, definitely try a port on the back)
- When you connected the other (older) mouse and keyboard, they were initially not recognized, but they were after rebooting, so did they function properly after this reboot? Did you connect these on the same port you usually connect your Logitec and keyboard to, or did you try different ports?
- Do you have access to another mouse and or keyboard, which is 100% sure known to work perfectly on another computer? If yes, try this on your mac.
- When you tried the mouse and keyboard on the Macbook Air, did you try it long enough to be 100%sure they work fine? Let's say at least 3-5 times longer then the average freezing intervals on your mac? (If you just tested briefly, you can't be sure.)
- How does it freeze? The pointer just stops moving? or do you see a spinning beachball?
Another thing:
You are posting in the Power Mac forum
you should actually post this in the Mac Pro forum
https://discussions.apple.com/community/desktop_computers/mac_pro
although they look similar, the older Power Mac line were equiped with IBM PPC processor(s), and the newer Mac Pro line features Intel CPU's.
You will likely get more help if you post in the right forum, which is more active.
You can refer to this thread though
