Touch pad on Zen Touch won't register movement

My Creative Zen Touch's touch pad seems to be broken. It won't register any movements up or down, but if I tap the pad, it will still register it as an "OK" click. Does anyone have any idea what happened? I tried resetting the player, but it didn't change anything.

*Hey,
I have a zen micro so mabye this dosn't apply but mine was the exact same, it was as if the touch pad was totallly frozen. I contacted creative and in 6 days i got a brand new one sent out to me because my old one was screwed! Contact creative and even if they cant replace it they'll prob be able to fix it. Good luck!

Sometimes touches won't register properly..

This is a problem that started happening about a week after I got the phone, but at that time it was barely happening.. I thought it was just a normal every-now-and-then thing. But I met up with some friends who all have iPhones, and I am the only one with a constant issue.
About three or four times a day, I will press a button on my Iphone and the button will darken (as if I pressed it), but when I let go, it goes back to normal and nothing happens. Also I will sometimes press somewhere on the screen and it will register the touch somewhere else on the screen.. this results in sometimes calling the wrong person, and not being able to hang up because it won't register when I press the 'end call' button.
It's a very frustrating problem.. I can only pray that Apple will be willing to fix it. I purchased the phone on release day.. I doubt warranty still applies..

I have the same problem but im pretty sure its common. My old phone (which was replaced for other reasons..) had the same problem. But my new phone does too so its common I hope. As for the other problem, alot of times that happens to me there is some kind of gunk on the screen that messes it up just clean the screen and it should be fine.

My Ipod Touch won't register on Itunes??

I have an Ipod Touch and it won't sync with my new laptop. I have tried restarting Itunes, the computer and my ipod, plugging it into different ports muliple times, and looking on mutiple sites.. I synced my ipod with my old desktop fine but now i have all my music, apps, ect tranfered onto my laptop and Itunes won't register my Ipod. Whenever i plug it in my laptop makes a low dum kind of noise and i can see it when i look at my devices under my computer, although i can only see my pics, but Itunes does't change. All the sites say check under the device column on the lft-hand side, but there isn't one. While I'm asking questions, If i have all the things my old Itunes library has, will all my history (like in conversations and youtube videos) be deleted? Oh and my laptop is a windows 7.

Try looking at the previous posts on the right side of this page under he heading "More Like This".

Ipod touch won't play movies or songs w/album covers

Hi all - Before I left for a very long trip I downloaded a bunch of tv shows, movies and songs from itunes on a 32G ipod touch. I also was asked to update the software to 2.1 - which I did.
Prior to this, everything worked great!! I even had a movie on the ipod that worked fine before, but I hadn't finished watching it, so I left it there to finish now.
Sunday night, I got on the plane for my first leg of the trip, and tried to finish watching the movie and got the error message "this movie could not be played." I then tried every other video I had downloaded from itunes and got the same error message each time. Sometimes it would display the play, pause and volume controls, but never any video - and the error message would always appear.
Then I went to play my music -- nothing!! Except, I realized today, songs that do not display album covers play fine... I know this sounds odd - but it is true. I can only listen to songs that do not have album covers connected to them. The others are silent until they end.
So basically, EVERYTHING (music and videos) that I have downloaded from itunes does not work and every song that I downloaded from a CD does work. And Sunday morning, before doing the software upgrade, it all worked fine...
I have turned the device off and on a bunch of times -- I have reset all settings at least five times. I let the battery drain out and recharged it and still no change... I would even be willing to wipe the device clean and start over - However, I will not be near my computer for several weeks.
Can someone please help me - At 4am PST I leave for the airport to get on another plane for a 10 hour trip and cannot maintain my sanity without my music and videos.
Thank you in advance for your help and thank you on behalf of all of the passengers on my next two flights too!!

Hey!
I recall encountering this problem myself after the 2.1 update.Albeit only with some of my iTunes purchases(only the ones I'd bought thru my iPT).
I did a couple of resets,which did nothing to resolve the problem.
In the end, I re-connected to my Mac and did another 'sync'.Which then cured the pod of it's problem.
Not much use to you at the moment I know,but it was(in my case) an easy remedy to the problem.
Cheers,
John

I upgraded my os of itunes and now my ipod touch won't work

I upgraded the itunes to the newest os 5.0 and now my ipod touch won't register or even turn on, I get the initial screen that shows you to plug it in to the computer and then nothing happens

i have the same problem. I tried to upgrade this morning to iOS 5.0.1 and now my ipod touch is completely frozen. All I get is a black screen with the Apple logo and an empty download bar. I'm not even able to turn off the ipod and iTunes doesn't detect it anymore. Any suggestion except returning the ipod to Apple Store?

My Zen Touch won't turn on or char

My Zen Touch won't turn on, nor will it charge.
Here's what happened:
. I hadn't used it for about a week
2. I try to turn it on, and nothing happens. It's not locked.
3. I plug it into the charger and nothing happens.
4. I reset it, and the title screen appears. I wait for the title screen to disappear, but it doesn't. It doesn't charge either.
5. I take out the charger and it turns off! I try to turn it back on and still nothing happens.
6. I plug the charger back in and, yet again, the title screen appears but doesn't change or charge.
It seems like the battery life has run out, but it won't charge.
WHAT CAN I DO!?

Nevermind, I just went and checked my mp3 player (I left it on the charger) and now it is charging. I conclude that the battery was dead and I was just impatient :P
Thanks anyway.

IPod touch won't turn on charge or register on pc help what is wrong how do I fix?

My iPod touch won't turn on or charge or register on the pc, what is wrong and how do. Fix it?

Try:

- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Can I install an app I bought onto my grandson's iPod touch that is registered in his mother's account

See question. I bought an app store game on my account, but want to install on grandson's iPod touch, which is registered in his mother's app store account. Can I? How?

Yes, you can. The best route would be to download the app directly from the iTunes Store using your account credentials; that way you don't get into any issues of trying to sync with your computer. He won't be able to get updates to the app, though, unless you're willing to give him or his mother your iTunes Store acount ID and password. It would therefore probably be better to gift him the app and have him redeem it through his mother's iTunes Store account so that she can handle any future updates.
Regards.

Ipod touch won't sync on laptop but different ipod will sync

I'm having some issues trying to sync my wife's ipod touch. She's had it for a couple years and we haven't had any issues with it before. She purchased a couple songs recently and when we connected the ipod a message came up saying there was a software update available for the ipod so we downloaded the update. After we did that her ipod will charge when we connect it but it won't register that it's connected so we can't sync it. Sometimes an error message will pop up saying something about not being able to connect.
I have searched online and tried everything suggested but nothing works. I downloaded the latest itunes update, uninstalled and reinstalled itunes, tried a different usb cable and different usb port and non of that worked. I even hooked up my ipod nano to see if it was a computer issue or ipod issue, my ipod syncd perfectly fine so it's gotta be a problem with her ipod.
I've also restarted the ipod, nothing will get it to sync. The ipod will still work and I've thought about trying to sync it to our my laptop but if I do that then I risk her losing all of her music on her ipod and being stuck with mine if we can't get it to sync with her computer.
I'm all out of ideas, anyone encounter this problem? Also if I bring it into the Apple Store is there anything they can do to try and fix it?
Thank you.

First, 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 the screen blacks out or 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. 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."

IPod Touch won't respond to anything

I have an iPod (1G, 16GB) that's just slightly over a year old, and the other day it stopped working for no apparent reason. I can't get any response from it - I've tried forcing it on by plugging it in to my computer, I've tried putting it in DFU mode; I can't try to put it in recovery mode since iTunes won't register it. Nothing happens. It won't turn on, it's just stuck on a black screen. The only indication that something was wrong, was that a few hours prior to when it wouldn't start up, the music I was listening to would randomly pause after a few seconds. I've had problems where I wasn't able to turn the iPod on before ever since I've gotten it (maybe 2 or 3 times, once just about a month after I'd gotten it), but I never thought much of it since I was able to force it on by plugging it in to my computer. I've read that it could be hardware failure. Is there any way to fix this, or is it lost forever? Thanks.

See Here...
Frozen or unresponsive iPod touch
Try this First... You will not lose any Data...
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...

If that does not work... try letting the battery fully drain.
Then Charge for an Hour and try the Reset again.

My 4th gen iPod Touch won't charge

Hi, folks:
Suddenly, my 4th generation iPod Touch won't charge. I don't mean it won't hold a charge; I mean it WON'T charge. There's no (peep!) when I attach it to a Mac, a Windows box, or to the wall. I've tried not only at my place but at my doctor's office, too, on his computer. Rats.
It fell three feet onto a concrete floor a week before this happened, so I'm unsure of cause/effect there. However, chances are most excellent that I touched it while filled with static electicity (my bed is exceedingly staticky). Maybe I touched the charging port? I have no idea, but I kinda sorta have a memory of having gotten a shock while touching my pod and wondering whether that was bad.
It'll be a couple more days before I can get to a Genius Bar (but thank cow I'm in New York City and have my pick of them!). In the meantime, can anyone calm me down about my situation? Do you imagine it's doomed (it IS still operable provided I keep it plugged in, though iTunes can't see it since it won't mount), or do you spose the installation of a new battery might bring my precious baby back to me? It IS freshly backed up (again, thank cow!), but I'm not in a position to buy a new one right now, and unfortunately, I don't know what to do with my eyeballs without a Touch in front of them.
Oh, how I hope someone can tell me that this has happened to him, and an Apple Genius merely did something magical and handed it back intact and amazing again so Ican cry happy tears. It's been four days and I'm just sick without it (and having to look at this gigantic Mac, with its large and beautiful text in many windows, means I can't RECLINE! WAAAAH!).
Thanks for any soothing words you have, and if you have sad ones, well, I'll vag up and read them, as I've prepared for the worst anyway (sob!). Just please deliver them gently.
I appreciate it!

Wow, Kevin; that's a tantalizing theory! I don't like it (I *never* like to think about logic board damage for any piece of hardware), but it's tantalizing, as it would explain my pod seemingly charging out of thin air, and it'd also explain why my pod doesn't just DIE altogether from a dead battery.
I feel like an idiot: I have iTunes set to never sync automatically with my pod, so it never automatically recognizes the pod. I'll bet I could sync it if I clicked to "apply," as I've been downloading new apps since 2/21 (the last time I backed the pod up, mere minutes before it failed), but I don't want to risk not having a connection that's 100% and bollixing up what's on the pod now. (I'll be in the hospital for a day and will need something to read the whole time; I'll need an intact pod!)
Thanks for sticking with me, Kevin; I always like figgering things out, and your theory's interesting. I'll mention it to the Genius. It doesn't give me any hope, but not having any hope, I can always be pleasantly surprised, whereas if I go in all hopeful, someone can dash my dreams. This way, I'll prolly just have my expectations met.
I appreciate your talking it out with me a lot!

My iPod touch won't let me download any apps. .

My iPod touch won't let me download any apps. Any time I try it sends me to a billing screen. I enter my information and it wnt accept it. Been doing it for over a month. Even with free apps. Very frustrating please help

It appears that there is something incorrect with your billing information. You need to correct it. For a standard account you need a valid payment method even for free apps. You can however create a new account that is only good for apps by:
Create an iTunes App Store account without a credit card

Help! My iPod touch won't let me download any apps. A message keeps coming up saying "This Apple ID cannot be used for the iTunes store. Please enter another Apple ID" I changed my ID to see if that would work but the same message still comes up.

Help! My iPod touch won't let me download any apps. A message keeps coming up saying "This Apple ID cannot be used for the iTunes store. Please enter another Apple ID" I changed my ID to see if that would work but the same message still comes up.

Where are you physically located?
What country's Store are you using?
The two have to be the same and the payment method for your account also has to be associated (billing address, where iTunes gift card was purchased) with that country.
Has the ID(s) worked before for purchases for this country's store?

Sorry I ask alot of questions...
Is there a way to save my scores (of my games) before i restore my ipod?
And my apps..?

My ipod touch won't respond. Shortly after I downloaded IOS 8, it quite responding. How can I get my pictures recovered?

My ipod touch won't respond. Shortly after I downloaded IOS 8, it quite responding. All I get is the Apple sign. I connected to my computer and tried updating and was able to download the USB connection for the device but received an error when it tried to update the ipod. Is there any way to retrieve my pictures from the device before I try to recover? At this point my pictures are more valuable to me than restoring the device. How can I get my pictures recovered?
Now it looks like I have the Apple with an line under it on the screen, but still not responsive.
