The screen is frozen

My son has a 3g i touch and a few days ago the screen froze. I have tried holding down top and main button and syncing, but it has not changed. Any suggestions?

Press command + option + esc keys together at the same time.
Wait.
When Force Quit window appears, select the application if not already.
Press Force Quit button at the bottom of the window.
Wait.
Application will quit.
If this does not help, press the power button for 7 or more seconds.
Computer will shut down.
Restart.

HT1430 How can you reboot your Touch if the screen is frozen and will not allow you to use the "slide to power off"

Next try:

If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Why does my MacBook pro keep beeping 3 times. The screen is frozen.

Like my MacBook Pro keeps beeping 3 times and pausing for 2 seconds. The screen is frozen. How do I fix this and what is going on?

That is a RAM issue, do you have any spare ram you can swap to confirm? Possible causes:
a ram module going bad
installation of incompatible ram
your ram may have become dislodged
I would suggest:
- removing all ram from your MBP, and reinstall it to see if that helps.
- if you recently installed new ram, remove it, then restart the computer with the old ram to see if this helps.

Is there no other option? No magic key combo that brings up a secret menu?

You can call AppleCare and request a replacement set of the original DVD's that shipped with the computer for a nominal charge. You will need the serial number (look on the bottom of the stand) and a credit card. Click the AppleCare Contact Info link. Without knowing which iMac you have it's very difficult to say if a new SL disc would work or not.

My iPod shows emails but the screen seems frozen

My iPod will not allow me to open emails or delete them. The screen seems frozen and touching it to open an email, edit etc., does nothing at all. I use my iPad to access emails and this activity is picked up on the iPod, but If I tap on an email to open it, nothing happens at all. Mail works okay as do other functions. Any suggestions greatly received.
Thank you
Tony Brockett
