The slide arrow to my I pod touch to unlock is stuck

How do I unlock my I pod touch when the slide arrow is stuck

Try the following:
- A reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

  • I followed the instructions I read in a post to shutdown IPad holding the sleep button down until red arrow appeared.  The slide arrow and then restart with the sleep button.  Well, now nothing happens when I press this button to start IPad.

    I have two problems.  The most pressing is that I was following a suggestion to restart my IPad by turning off, sliding red arrow, wait for Apple symbol.  I now see the apple but alson the little marks that go around when it is working but they are frozen and my home key does not do anything and no icons appear. 

    Thank you so much.  This worked perfectly and you taught me something I didn't know.  The other question I had was that I am in a home with wifi and my ipad connected to the internet without a problem.  We then left for about a week and when I returned to this house I no longer can connect to the internet.  I'm not sure if it is okay to ask you another question or must I post the question.  Also, I am not sure how to five you the 10 points for the correct answer.  I'm very new at this process.   Thank you so much for helping me.

  • Hi - I was updating the operating system on my I-Pod touch (to Ios 5). After the download finished an error message re my touch came up. The Ipod has frozen, with the apple icon and an empty bar on the screen. I can't hard reset. Help!

  • How do i get the text app on my i-pod touch?

    i keep trying to go to my app store but it wont let me log in

    Actually, I thnk my post is right on point.  Here is my logic:
    He's already move up to iCloud according to the OP.  So, the question is, "What function would an icon serve?"  Since the Settings selections only turn specific functions on or off, my assumption is that the OP was looking for management options and user functionality, so as the ability to add a calendar entry directly into the calendar on iCloud.  As we both know, you can only do that using a laptop or desktop.  Many newbies do not understand that the only way to make a calendar entry, for example, from a phone is to use the calendar app.
    If, on the other hand, the OP is looking to set up an account, then you are correct.

  • I pod classic for I pod touch

    I have an I pod classic and it has warranty on it. Is it possible for me to turn the ipod classic in for I pod touch with the warranty I have?

    You will get the same model if BB still carries it. If that model is no longer avaliable, you'll get a comparable model, meaning another Classic. Your store may be willing to give you a store credit for the comparable model which you can use to purchase a touch. However, the store is not required to do this.

  • I pod  touch makes a shutter sound and goes to the power off slider screen for no reason tried restoring several times and wonder if it is an internal error this ipod has no camera

    my ipod touch makes a shutter sound ( no camera on this ipod ) and then goes to the power off slider screen. It will do this several times and then screen goes blank have restored several times with no change is it terminal or can it be repaired this was purchased as a refurb

    If you press and hold the home button and click on the sleep button once, the iPod will make a screenshot of your home screen and add it to the photos on your device.
    If you don't press the home button or the sleep button during to do this, one of your buttons might be stuck.
    Try to reset the iPod by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again, ignore the "slide to turn off" message when you press and hold the buttons.

  • The "slide to unlock" on my elderly touch ipod no longer works.

    The "slide to unlock" touch slider on my elderly touch ipod no longer works.  My finger can move it three-quarters of the way then it pops back to the left.  With struggle, I can sometimes combine the on screen slider moved as far to the right as I can get it then tap the hardware button on the bottom.  I just have to keep trying over and over.  An arrow appears at the top of the ipod that, when tapped, leads into the most recent song I was listening to before I turned it off.  Just removing the earphones turns it off.  Otherwise, I would just leave it on.  The ipod works just fine once I get past that slider bar at the start.  Help!

  • I-Pod Touch Problem Switching On - I-Tunes, USB Cable and Arrow on Screen

    Hi folks.
    When I switched on my i-pod touch this morning, an image appeared with a usb cable and an arrow pointing to the i-tunes logo. I have tried to switch off and restart the i-pod touch (16GB) but I cannot get past this stage. Do I need to have access to i-tunes on my computer to bypass this? I am at work and don't have access currently....
    I've had it for just approximately 14 months.
    Please advise....
    Many thanks,
    D6.

    It sounds like the ipod is in recovery mode. Plug it into you computer when you get home.
    If it doesn't fix the problem, then take it to another computer running itunes and plug it in. It should tell you that an ipod has been detected in recovery mode and do you want to restore it. It should ask to download and install the software. After the install, plug it back into your computer and it should restore your apps and music.
    This has happened to me with every update ever since the 3.0 software has come out.
    Strangely enough, it didn't do it with ios 4 which should have told me that I was in for problems!!!!!!
