Palm TX cannot access the icons on bottom of touchscreen

I cannot access the icons at the bottom of the touchscreen. When I try to align the screen the input screen is on and I am unable to hide it. Selection from the lower part of the screen seems to be a row lower that the intended selection. I have tried a "hard" reset with no luck. I use the device when I travel, but it is no longer useful if I cannot change the screen to landscape or lower the keyboard. The 5 way button does not seem to access the icon either.

If the device is still under warranty, contact Palm for a replacement.
Otherwise, repairs can be found at usedpdaparts.com and pdaparts.com
In the meantime, try to calibrate the screen lower than the bullseyes to compensate for the digitizer drift.

    If it's an application, it should be in the Applications folder. If in doubt, double click on the hardrive icon to open it up, then press Command+F (find) and in the window that comes up for what you want to find, type in AOL and it should appear. You can either drag it to the Dock for easy access or make an alias of that, and drag that alias to the Dock. Oh, and just so's you know, this forum is for Desktop macs only.

  • My MacBook Pro is not recognizing my external hard drive.  The hard drive is listed in disk utilities but an icon does not pop up and I cannot access the data.  Is there any way to resolve this?

    WE know Disk Warrior is more reliable, hence more useful, and should be in any disk mechanics toolchest.
    For the record, I don't know anything of the kind. I have yet to see evidence that Disk Warrior is useful at all.
    What I do know is that you seem to take every opportunity you get to promote it in these forums. Do you work for Alsoft?
    Let me be a little more explicit. My opinion is that Disk Warrior is a waste of money if one has backups. If a journaled HFS directory is so badly corrupted that it can't be repaired by Disk Utility, then the volume should be reformatted and restored from backup, which has the same effect as running DW, but is probably faster and doesn't cost $99.

  • My Lumia Icon goes dark during calls and I cannot access the phone pad to unless I hit the power button.

    My Lumia Icon goes dark during calls and I cannot access the phone pad to unless I hit the power button.  Because of this it makes it tough to put my phone on speaker or type in my v-mail password.

    I've been trying to find a common denominator. It happens inconsistently. It never happened before the Denim update. When it does occur, the screen goes black immediately upon answering the call and doesn't come back until the call is ended by the calling party.
    I thought it might be the proximity sensor, but when it's working normally I can see the screen go dark when it's at my ear and comes back when I take it away (tried it multiple times). I had Gestures Beta installed. I wondered if that could have an affect so I uninstalled it, but that didn't make any difference. I'm still stumped by the inconsistency. I haven't reset my phone as I didn't really want to go through that...

    In Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    To open your domain file in Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
    do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
    tell application "iWeb" to activate
    Just launch the application, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
    You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
    WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder.  So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

  • My pages icon has disappeared and I cannot access the program!!

    My Pages icon has disappeared and I cannot access the program

    Have you tried opening Spotlight (Command + spacebar or click the magnifying glass icon near the right end of the menu bar) and typing "pages" into it to see if it finds Pages?
    If it is found and the problem is that it isn't showing on the Dock, you can open Finder and then use the Finder "Go" menu and click Applications, locate Pages and drag it to the Dock.

  • I have already downloaded the ios 7 but cannot access the iTunes Radio from the music app. There is no iTunes Radio icon at all! How did that happen? How can I resolve the problem? Please help. Thanks!

    I have already downloaded the ios 7 but cannot access the iTunes Radio from the music app. There is no iTunes Radio icon at all! How did that happen? How can I resolve the problem? Please help. Thanks!

    It didn't show up in my music app for several hours.   Don't know why... But it's there.
    I can now access and add stations through the iTunes Store to play through music app icon.

  • 5 of my apps in the app store on my I pad are frozen at installing. I cannot access the apps to usze them or complete the update process.

    My ipad app store is frozen for 5 apps insalling. I cannot access the apps or finish installing updates

    If the App Store itself is frozen, quit the app completely and reboot the iPad.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent 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.
    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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    If the updates themselves have stalled - try some of these things and see if they help.
    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. 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. Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
    You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered.
    If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad.

  • I have been working on a book and have 418 photos already in my book.  All of a sudden I cannot access the book format to see the multiple view, spread view, or single view.  I can no longer see my book although I still see the collection with 418 photos

    I have been working on a book and have 418 photos already in my book.  All of a sudden I cannot access the book module and clicking on the multiple view, spread view, or single view does not take me back to the book I have been working on.  I can no longer see my book although I still see the collection with 418 photos under collections.  What I do see is a blank template for a new book and I can't find the unfinished book I started with 418 photos.  It is like the new empty template is somehow covering it up.  How do I get back to the book I have been working on?

    Is it possible you mistakenly clicked on a [Clear Layout] button?
    But a great hint is- Always click on the [Create a Saved Book] button, early in your new book design.
    Then you have a permanent link to the book in the Collections panel. (In addition to the standard collection of your selected images)
    Note: a Book Collection shows an icon that looks like a book.
    Every time you come back to edit the book, open the Book Module by clicking on the white arrow that appears on the end of your Book Collection title. (The title as saved)
    Re-opening a book without using the "Saved Book" option can have unpredictable results.
    A "Book" Collection is like a "Smart Collection" because anything you do to the book design, change pages, change images, etc,  is automatically updated in the Saved Book collection.

  • I cannot access the internet using firefox. The little toolbar identical (the far upper right in the screen) pops up and nothing else happerns. This has only started very recently and I have not had this problem in the past.

    When I click on the icon for firefox, a little toolbar (the one you see in the top right corner of the screen) pops up and nothing else happens. I'll close it out and retry, with only the same results. I tried Firefox safemode, with the same result. Like there is something blocking me, but I don't know what. It doesn't matter if I've been on the computer for some time or just started up, I cannot access the web thru Firefox. This has only started in the last couple days. Previously, I've never had this problem. I haven't loaded any new programs anytime recently to account for this. I use Norton for my anti virus program which is the newest and had since end of December. I am not happy having to use the windows internet explorer, so would be very happy to get this resolved. Should I uninstall the mozilla program, and then reinstall it?

    "I have an ethernet cable in port 1 on my computer. That is configured manually to access ther office network."
    Do you have a "real" IP address or a private (192.168.x.x, 10.x.x.x, 172.x.x.x) IP address?
    "The wireless router was connected to the company server only for the purpose of getting me online through Airport because I couldn't access it using an ethernet connection"
    Could not access it because their network security blocked you by intent, or had some unknown technical difficulty?
    Unless you are blocked by intent or ommission (if they have to explicitly allow your machine) I can think of no technical reason why your wired connection should not both get you on their network and on the internet in general. You should not need to be dual homed (though dual homing should work as well).
    Please answer the questions above when you can - I think solving the wired LAN issue will be easier if you are not being intentionally blocked.

  • I cannot access the various radio stations in iTunes on my iPad

    I cannot access the various radio stations in iTunes on my ipad2

    So, If you want to listen to a station you love from itunes, check the info for the station in iTunes. Highlight the station and look in the File menu for "Get Info," (Ctrl+I is the keyflick in most systems). At the bottom of the summary page is an item "Where" which lists the URL for the station.
    Grab your iOS device, start up a browser and enter the URL into the address window. You'll be streaming that station in no time, without adding another app!
    A little less user friendly than native to iTunes, but you don't have to search for new stations this way.
    I hope this helps!

  • I cannot access the built in notes app on my I pad air

    I cannot access the built in app "notes" on I pad air, any ideas

    Do a Spotlight Search (tap & drag down from the center of the Home Screen) for "notes". It may be hidden in a folder or elswhere. A Spotlight Search will find it. It *cannot* be deleted from the iPad so it's there somewhere.
    You can also try to reset the unit to see if it shows up that way:
    Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
    1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
    2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
    3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.
    As a last resort, you can restore your Home Screen's icon layout. The reset all of your icons locations to default and arrange the icons alphabetically from the first free page after the unit's default icons so be prepared if you have you icons setup in a certain order.
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout

  • I have downloaded an app but cannot see the icon

    I have downloaded an app but cannot see the icon. I have tried to download again from app store but it says it is installed

    Do you have restrictions enabled on the iPad? Settings>General>Restrictions? Maybe that is why you cannot see it. Have you swiped from screen to screen to look for it?
    You can search for the app to confirm that it is on the iPad, but that will not show you the location of the icon and if the app store says it is installed - then it is installed. But this would let you access the app. Swipe from the right in your first home screen and the search feature appears. Type in the name of the app to find it. you can tap on the icon to launch the app.
    Try restarting the iPad as well and maybe the icon will show up. 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.
    This may even help if all else fails. 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.

  • I have upgraded my iPhone to iOS 5.1 and now cannot access the camera from a locked screen.  Has anyone else had this problem?

    I have upgraded my iPhone 4S to iOS 5.1 and now cannot access the camera from a locked screen.  Anyone have any suggestions?

    From the lock screen, to access the camera you touch the camera icon and slide in an upward motion. It no longer takes a tap to get it to open.

  • My computer cannot access the Internet, but my iPad can...

    My computer cannot access the Internet; it keeps saying "a connection timeout occurred," but my iPad is connecting fine.  I'm running OSX 10.8.2

    Back up all data.
    Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
    Enter the name of your wireless network in the search box. You should have one or more "AirPort network password" items with that name. Make a note of the name and password, then delete all the items. Quit Keychain Access. Turn Wi-Fi off and then back on. Reconnect to the network.
