Settings Screen frozen/unresponsive

Hi, I am having a problem with the settings screen. Following directions from the website I was on, I brought up the settings menu and changed the location storage to zero so that no information was to be stored on my system. The instructions did not say to check the box stating not to ask again.
I closed and reopened the browser, logged back in and got the above window from flash player. However, none of the buttons work.
If I right click and select "settings" again, it goes to the local storage window but again won't accept any input.
Website: pchgames.com
Adobe Flash Player: 10.1
Installed: 6/13/2010
O/S: Vista Home Premium on an HP Pavillion a1750y
The screen appears to have been overridden with something but everything I've tried does not bring the window forward and I cannot
close the window either.
Thanks for any help.
Nancy

This behaviour can sometimes be fixed by deleting the folders where these settings are kept. Do the following
close all browser windows;
open Windows Explorer;
in the address bar type %appdata%\Adobe [Enter];
delete the 'Flash Player' folder in there;
in the address bar type %appdata%\Macromedia [Enter];
delete the 'Flash Player' folder in there;
now try the Settings again.

IPod Nano 5G (16 Gig) has frozen on the Reset Settings Screen

My iPod Nano 5G (16 Gig) has frozen on the Reset Settings Screen after I tried holding the middle button to re-set. I was doing this as a result of the backlight timer not responding. I'm really worried now, even if I plug into an official Apple external USB outlet or my PC nothing is happening - it's just stuck on that screen. Has been like this for about 4 hours now. And iTunes is saying it doesn't recognise the Nano and its not showing as an external drive on my PC.
Though this was bought for my from HMV at Xmas would I still be able to take the Nano to the Apple store as a last resort? Any help would be great, thanks.

Hi I tried this from: Zolved.com +Toggle the Hold switch to on, then back to off (none of the red is showing).+
+Press and hold down the Menu and Select buttons for 10 seconds (until you see the Apple logo) as shown in the picture.+ And it appears to have worked, so am guessing this is the standard way of re-setting the Nano? Thanks

My "settings" screen is frozen ... everything else is working

All of the apps are working, but the settings screen is frozen and would not allowed me to select any options ...

Have you tried closing the Settings 'app' completely and seeing if it works when you re-open it ? From the home screen (i.e. not with Settings 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Settings app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Updated ios 7.1.1 now screen is unresponsive

I updated to the ios 7.1.1 on my iphone 5 this morning and now the screen is unresponsive. Is anyone else having this problem? Everything was working fine until this morning when the update finished. Did a reset with no luck. I took it to the carrier store that I bought it from and they said take it to Apple store (180 miles away) HA.
Thanks

What can I do if my recently bought iPod touch 5th generation's touch screen is unresponsive at times?

I've had my ipod for about a week and off and on throughout the day the touch screen is unresponsive. I've restarted it several times and it does no good. Help!

Just the standard fixes:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Screen frozen, I have this screen frozen twice on my screen.

I have a screen frozen on my computer screen twice. It says"All your music in one place" I was trying to download i tunes again and this came up as part of the process. It isn't progressing. I cannot cancel, it close it or even copy it to show you what it looks like. What is it, or how can I get rid of it.

I don't know why your iGoogle page that worked with 3.6 would not work with 4.0. I assume iGoogle is important, but to get you some use of the browser, you might want to switch to a blank (or some other) home page.
Try starting up from a link (e.g., in a document, PDF, or email message) or a shortcut (e.g., something you have saved on your desktop or something in your IE Favorites folder. Once you hit that page, go to
Tools > Options > General
and change your home page.
Hopefully you can solve the iGoogle problem. If not and you want to roll back to Fx 3.6:
First, make a backup of your computer for safekeeping. To back up Firefox, see [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information].
Next, download and save Firefox 3.6 to your desktop for future installation. http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all-older
Close Firefox 4, and uninstall it. Do not remove your personal data and settings, just the program.
Then finally you can reinstall Firefox 3.6. Unless you have installed an incompatible add-on, it should pick up where you left off. If there are serious issues, please post back with details.
Note: I haven't actually tried this myself!

Part of my iPad screen is unresponsive!

Part of my iPad screen is unresponsive, whenever I am sliding an object across the screen and I get to that bit, it's acts as if I have lifted my finger off? Help its brand new

Have you tried rebooting, resetting all settings or restoring the iPad? It could very well be a problem with the screen that no software solution can solve, but give those a try.
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.
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.

ITouch Screen is unresponsive

My iPod touch 2rd generation has a weirdly unresponsive touchscreen. I didn't do anything to it and it seems that the entire middle section of the heat sensor screen is unresponsive. I tried to restore and reinstall and everything but that just didn't work. One reason being that whenever I try restoring it from iTunes, my computer freezes. I've also tried reinstalling iTunes and it always seemed to have the same problem. I managed to restore it manually using the "Erase All Content and Settings" from the Setting's App. And now I've loaded on back my apps and music. Since I haven't done anything it comes up with the edit home screen dismiss part and I'm stuck on that. Any help?

Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore the iPod from backup
- Restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod.
If still problem, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Iphone 6 plus Touch Screen is Unresponsive When Charging

I just replaced my iPhone 4s with the iPhone 6 plus. I had several issues with the first 6plus and Apple has already replaced the phone once figuring it was a hardware issue. (Actually they couldn't figure out the cause of the issues so as a last resort they replaced the phone.) The second iPhone 6 plus still has an issue with the touch screen becoming unresponsive or erratic while charging. By erratic, I mean that if the phone is unlocked, I try to open my photos but the phone opens facetime. Or I try to open the app store and the phone actually opens the settings. The longer the phone is connected to a power source the more unresponsive or erratic the touch screen becomes. If the phone is locked, I can't even answer an incoming call or unlock the phone. Also, it doesn't matter if the phone is connected to my computer or to an outlet. All connectors (plug and cord) are the ones I received in the box with my iPhone. The only constant is that the phone is connected to a power source. It happens both when the phone is charging and if it has a full 100% charge.
The problem is solved immediately when I disconnect from the power source. If anyone has any ideas on what is causing the issue, I'd appreciate the advice.

Thank you for the advice. Unfortunately, this did not solve the issue. In the weeks since my original post, I've tried three different apple cords and a charging cord made by Duracell. I've tried two different apple wall bases and a generic brand wall base. I've tried different different power sources too. Plugging into different wall outlets, different computers, the USB connection in my car and used an adapter to plug into the 12v connection in my car. I had thought maybe the computer could contribute to the issue so I even tried the computer when I simply turned it on but did not log on. While the phone was charging, it still didn't fix the issue.

Accidently enlarged home screen and cant go back to normal screen frozen and cant even swipe on

Accidently enlarged home screen and cant go back to normal screen frozen and cant even swipe on

Try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose any data by resetting.
Probably the zoom feature enabled, double tapping with three fingers will bring back the screen to normal size again in that case.
Turn Zoom on or off. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Zoom. Or, use the Accessibility Shortcut. See Accessibility Shortcut on page 139.
Zoom in or out. With Zoom turned on, double-tap the screen with three fingers

No, your Yahoo account is not in iCloud (which only handles iCloud mail), it is in Yahoo, and the Yahoo mail account is on your iPad.
But the MacBook Pro will have none of it! I write this question now as I fear that I will be totally demented very soon and unable to formulate my thoughts clearly!
Get the correct settings for your account from Yahoo and set it up manually.
By the way, I also find the "password" issue problematical. It seems Apple want my Apple password rather than my eMail password. All very confusing.
That would depend on what you are trying to do.

Try:
- 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 iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
