None of the buttons on my Torch will not work - phone inoperable

The buttons on my Torch will not work...I can receive calls but can't answer them. I cannot do anything with the phone...it is fully charged - HELP! I am traveling and this is now critical!

I don't have a 9800 here to test, but if you keep the keyboard closed, isn't there a onscreen enter key?
Normally the buttons not workng is indicative of moisture issues. It sounds like what I have seen multiple times on a device with moisture damage.
Even sitting on a bathroom counter during a hot steamy shower or bath can cause keyboard and trackball problems UNTIL properly dried out. It really is more common than you think.
1. Remove the battery immediately!! Do not attempt to turn on your BlackBerry.
2. Let the device dry in a warm, dry place for 3 to 5 days* (see below)
3. DO NOT "check it each day" by placing the battery in. Leave it be to dry completely. This takes time. Replacing the battery to check it can only damage it more (moisture + electrical current = disaster).
4. If the device is warm after the drying period, allow it to cool to room temperature before placing the battery back in.
Suggestions on drying your BlackBerry in a warm place (open, with the battery out):
*Place the BB in a container of dry UNcooked rice, and then you might also place it in any of the locations mentioned below.
*On top of any dry heat emitting electronic component: TV cabinet or CRT, LCD, cable TV/Satellite converter box or plasma monitor
*On the dashboard of your car on a sunny day

    Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode?<br/> ''A troubleshooting mode.''<br />
    You can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut. Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut to open it again.''
    If not, see this: <br />

    I have tried to update my iPhone using the iTunes method but it will not work. The message "The iTunes update server could not be contacted. Please check your internet connection or try again later," appears. What do I do? The Internet is working fine.

    Have you tried the following troubleshooting document?
    iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    If you end up using the If the iTunes Store opens successfully section of the document, and the "Automatically detect settings" checkbox is already checked, try unchecking and rechecking it and clicking OK.

  • NONE of the buttons on my curve 8520 are working. HELP!

    So, today I pulled out my phone and the screen was black. I took out the battery, put it back in and the LED just kept blinking. I pulled the battery out again and left it for a bit. It turned on, when it turned on my phone was locked. I couldn't press any buttons. No matter what it was, the four buttons on the top row, the trackpad or any of the keys weren't working. My phone still turns on normally but none of the buttons work. 
    I have a Curve 8520.
    Thanks.

  • HT2693 Downloaded the piano keyboard app and will not work at all...also no sound.  This app only.    Refund??

    I downloaded the piano keyboard app....will not work at all....the screen comes up but no a tigon when trying to use...also no sound.

    Try a couple of basic troubleshooting steps,
    Quit the app completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    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.
    Reboot 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.
    Delete the app and reinstall. You will not have to pay for it again as long as you use the same Apple ID that you bought it with. Hold down on the icon until it jiggles, then tap the X on the icon to delete the app. Tap the home button to stop the apps from jiggling. Go back to the App Store purchased tab and download the app again.

  • When i create a slideshow in iphoto using the ken burns effect it will not work in idvd. any tips please.

    when i create a slideshow in iphoto with the ken burns effect it works fine. when i then transfer it to idvd it will not work. any tips please.

    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    how are you getting the slideshow into iDVD?
    what size slideshow did you send to iDVD?
    can you export the slideshow to the Desktop and play it with Quicktime Player there?
    what fixes have you tried?
    how much free space on your boot drive?
    Here's how you should create and sent a slideshow to iDVD from iPhoto:
    Export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar.  For iPhoto 9.4.3 and earlier select Size = Medium or Large. For iPhoto 9.5 and later selct 480p.
    Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
    Follow this workflow to help assure the best quality video DVD:
    Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image  menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
    To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
    Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality.  Always use top quality media:  Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.

    I have Photoshop Elements 12 and want to try version 13 before I buy. However, when I tried to download the trial version of Adobe Photoshop Elements 13, I was informed that it isa not available on Windows XP. Does this mean that if I buy the full version, it will not work on Windows XP?

  • I downloaded Firefox 4 and tried to launch it. The message said that Firefox will not work with this version of Mac OX. Please advise.

    I downloaded Firefox 4 and installed it. When I tried to launch it, a message came up saying that Firefox will not work with this version of Mac OSX. Now I have no Firefox. How can I get Firefox 3.6 back on my Mac? How can I make Firefox 4.0 work? Please advise.

    Thanks for the reply so quickly! Is the tenfourfox going to be be just as safe and as high of quality as the Firefox 4? Also since Mozilla's website says, "Firefox 3.6.x will be maintained with security and stability updates for a short amount of time. All users are strongly encouraged to upgrade to Firefox 4" does that mean if I go back to 3.6 there will be security and stability issues after a "short amount of time"?

  • The map guide and navigation will not work again

    i had guides and navigation for a couple of months now, but after upgrading the phone's software it's not even there, i try to enter the license keys it says code not valid. That's a big disappointment, and the problem is i have emails for all my phone purchases! when i enter the license keys it says license keys not valid, can somebody tell me what can i do??!!

    I have done this on several occassions. This works for 1 time then it stops. It "connects" allows me to set it up and then flashes amber. It did backup 1 time today, but now it says it is delayed and there is no back up. It worked fine until I updated the software and tried to extend my network. After this, it will NOT work at all, for any length of time. i just reset it, and was able to set it up, but it gave me an error message, is flashing amber and is not being recognized. Very frustrating.

  • I updated my software for the Time Machine and it will not work properly now.

    I updated my Time Machine's Software and now it flashes amber all of the time and will not let me "into" it. I used to have a wireless network through it and now it does not work. I have hard reset it several times and it is flashing amber again.
