If a Reset has not Resolved your issue... Try a Restore...
1: Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.
3: If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try using the steps in this article to force the device into recovery mode.

IPad enter passcode screen keeps appearing

Every 10 seconds, the screen returns to the Enter Password and I cannot turn the iPad off. How do I stop this?

Enter Passcode screen has appeared

All of a sudden this morning my iPod is asking for a password and I have not set one up! In the past I have used the passcode lock in the Settings menu but not for some time. The screen that has appeared now is a different one to the Passcode lock screen and entering the passcode that I used to use does not work. I've tried turning on and off but no joy. Any ideas?

If you have screen-lock passcode screen (you can have two, on for a simple passcode and the other where the keyboard one comes up), connect the iPod to its syncing computer and retore via iTunes. If iTunes asks for the passcode and you can't enter the passcode, place the iPod in recovery mode and restore via iTunes. For recovery mode see:

A passcode screen has appeared, but i didn't set one up

the 'enter passcode' screen is blocking me from using my ipad. i didn't set it up, what happened and how can I disable it?

i use gmail on my iphone and ipad, but neither device has ever locked me out like what just happened with my ipad. i was just trying to access my apple id to setup icloud on apple.com when i was having difficultywith my primary email. so i attempted to change my id to the gmail acct, and now this happened. i don't know if there is any connection, but it is strange that it happened afterwards. if i restore from itunes, will i lose my ipad data?

CS6 - Annoying Trial Screen keeps appearing..

I have installed CS6 on a new Dell XPS 8500 running Win 7. The product went through the activation process and everything seemed fine but almost everytime I boot from cold, restart or wake the computer from sleep there appears a small screen asking me to either Licence The Software or Continue Trial. It is not a trial.. so I enter my serial number to continue.
I have done this countless times now and I'm really getting quite sick of it! I have tried getting help from the Adobe on-line 'Chat' and have tried all the fixes offered but so far nothing has worked.
I would really appreciate some help in getting rid of this very annoying Trial screen.
Thanks in advance
Heather

Thank you PECourtejoie for your help. I've come back here to give a quick update on my situation.
After spending a fair amount of time yesterday talking with both Adobe and Dell it has been confirmed that the hard drive on my new PC is corrupt and will need to be reformatted. A new installation disk should arrive sometime today and Dell will be assisting me with the new install. It was indeed a Permissions problem. Although I appeared as Administrator on the system I most definitely was not. All a bit of a pain, but hopefully on the clean disk I will never see that Trial screen again!
Thanks all for your help.. much appreciated!

I downloaded the new software to my Iphone and Ipad and used Icloud but now when I am working on my PC reading e-mail my Itunes screen keeps appearing on my screen. What did I do wrong???

I synced and authorized the computer and agreed to use Icloud-it's very annoying when Itunes keeps popping up on my screen. How do I turn this off?

Do you have iTunes Helper installed?
If so, instructions for disabling here > http://osxdaily.com/2009/09/10/ituneshelper-what-does-itunes-helper-do/

IPhone 3GS Lock screen keeps appearing

When I lock my screen, after about 10-15 seconds, the lock screen pops up (shows my lock screensaver/slide to unlcok and Time/Date) and then after 20-25 seconds it goes back to auto-lock (screen fades to black). This repeats over and over until the battery is drained (usually within a few hours). Tried to do a full restore and it did not solve the problem.

If your 3GS is still under Warranty Coverage, Apple will fix this under warranty.
You have an interesting story, because sometimes the digitizer responded? Maybe it was luck, and when you swiped finger to Unlock, you hit the few functioning places in the "slide to unlock" box. But the problems you are describing are digitizer problems. If you have found a way to "I reset the settings manually from the phone from a suggestion." to get it to work occasionally, then you may have a problem beyond just the digitizer.
The first step would be Warranty Fix with Apple. If no longer Warranty Coverage, the next step in trouble-shooting would be to replace the Front Glass Screen because it normally has the digitizer built with it.

My iPod touch is frozen and apple screen & spinning wheel keep appearing

Hi I really need help,
I was updating an application on my iPod when suddenly it shut down because the battery was too low.
Then I tried to turn it on again but these apple screen and spinning wheel screen keep appearing until now.
I've tried pressing and holding the home & sleep/wake button at the same time several times, and mostly it didn't work.

First, charge the battery thouroughly.
Then, if you're still having a problem, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

Volume logo keeps appearing on screen of ipad Air

The volume logo keeps appearing on the screen of my new iPad Air. Please advise.

If you use your iPad in landscape mode (sideways) the volume up and down buttons might be hitting you lap and being activation end that way. Or a case may be putting pressure on the buttons. Or the buttons might be bad.
First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
If the problem persist and the above comments don't help Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB 4G and $99 for the other 4Gs. They do not fix yours.
