Sounds like you need to restart the TouchPad. You can do this by holding the power button + the center button together for 20 seconds (yes, it takes a LONG time). This is a hardware initiated reset and won't require any screen taps.

  • My ipod touch 3g has a large problem please help

    Hello I have a 3g Ipod Touch, the other night when i turned it on it had a message that said "activation required" I plugged it into my computer and It had me restore it. Ive tried restoring it multiple times and syncing it multiple times. Even after multiple restores it still says activation required. I cannot unlock it. Turn it off or even put it in recovery mode. I am very scared because its the most expensive thing I own and there is absolutely no way that I can afford another one. I do not know what to do. Please help me everybody

    I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store because of the shock issue. I doubt it was caused by the update.

  • My iphone 5 32 gb has an camera autofocus problem, please help me solve this

    my iphone 5 32 gb has an camera autofocus problem, please help me solve this

    Hi teejayfs,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you've noticed unexpected behavior with your iPhone camera, start with these steps to isolate or resolve the issue:
    Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
    If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
    If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
    Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
    Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
    Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
    Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
    Try to remain steady while focusing:
    Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
    Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
    Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
    Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
    If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.

  • Pro L10: After using a wireless mouse, the touch pad has stopped working

    Pro L10. After using a wireless mouse, the built in touch pad has stopped working properly. On start up the touch pad icon shows and the touch pad operates intermittently, after a few minuets the icon disappears and the touch pad stops functioning. In the control panel/mouse & or device drive I can the program operating and then disappears.
    I have removed the software and reinstalled to no avail. On occasions I get a message to say that another pointer is in operation.
    Can you help?

    Hi
    It seems that the wireless mouse or the wireless mouse drivers/software has a bad influence on the touchpad.
    I dont have a proper solution for this issue. Well, you can check the Toshiba driver page for newest driver updates. If the updates doesnt solve this issue so I suggest to use either the wireless mouse and disable the touchpad with the key combination FN+F9 or to use a common USB mouse.
    I assume that you dont have any problems with a common USB mouse.

  • ITunes 10.2.1.1  doesn't recognize my iPhone 4 when I try to sync it. This has happened suddenly. Please help.

    iTunes 10.2.1.1  doesn't recognize my iPhone 4 when I try to sync it. This has happened suddenly. Please help.

    I recently installed IOS 4.3.2. and ITunes 10.2.2 on my 64 Bit Vista PC. Since upgrading the IOS on any of my devices, none of them are recognized in iTunes. The computer recognizes them in My Computer but not in iTunes. Apple support pointed me to http://http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538?viewlocale=en_US which directs you to uninstall/reinstall iTunes and all related programs. That has not solved the problem. The only guidance I have been given is from a tech at the Apple store who mentioned that there might be issues with the drivers in Vista. I have not been able to find any help with solving that issue. Does anybody have any thoughts.

  • My iphone 5 is no longer charging with new apple cord and lint has been cleared. Please help.

    My iphone 5 is no longer charging with a new apple cord and lint has been cleared. Please help. It just started happening this week and I have tried everything. Is this a software / driver problem?  We all know the battery doesn't last a full day if you "use" your phone like a normal person. I am very frustrated! My daughters iphone 5 started doing this a few days later than mine as well.

    Not much help I'm afraid but I use my iPhone 5 like a 'normal' person and it's battery almost all day. Perhaps there's a hardware fault somewhere? Have you tried the usual reset and restore?

  • I am unable to register my debit card after creating my apple ID. Whenever i click enter after filling all the debit card details, it shows that, "your payement method has been declined". Please help me people, why is it so.?

    I am unable to register my debit card after creating my apple ID. Whenever i click "continue" after filling all the debit card details, it shows that, "Your payement method has been declined". Please help me people, why is it so.? Also, i would ike to tell that my bank is, Union Bank Of India and it facilitates the auto conversion, rupee to dollar.. I think there is a different problem. Please help me guys.!!

    The card must be issued in the same country as the store you are trying to use. If you're trying to sign up for the US Apple Store, it must be a US card with a US billing address. If you're trying to sign up in India, it must be an Indian card with an Indian billing address.
    Apple will run a small charge, which will be credited back, to make sure the card is valid. If it is a debit card and you do not have enough in the account to cover the authorization, it will be declined.
    It is possible the currency conversion you mentioned may be causing a problem. Contact the issuing bank if you are sure you have enough in the account and you are signing up for the correct store.
