Touch screen does not work

I just got an HP elitebook 2760p.   Everything works...except that I cannot seem to get the touchscreen to work.   Whether the screen is up (like a regular laptop), or flipped down (like a tablet), it does not respond to fingers or to the pen that comes with the computer.  I have tried using the touch screen while using internet explorer, while using the "desktop" of windows 7, and also while booting up the computer with it flipped like a tablet.
There is probably a very simple answer...and once I get it, I'll feel like a beef mind, but for the life of me I can't figure it out.   I can't seem to find any swich to turn on, whether physical or in the windows setting pages.  The computer did not come with a manual, but I looked up on the online manual and there is no information on "how to use the touch screen" 
Is there something that I must "turn on" in Windows 7, or a switch somewhere on the side of the computer which I need to flip to use the touch screen?   Could I be missing a driver?

    touch screen does not work on my ipod when playing music on itunes, but works fine on every other thing on ipod, can anyone help or what is the cause

    Try:
    - 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.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - 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.

  • I have recently upgraded from my iphone 5 to a new phone. My iphone 5 's touch screen does not work anymore. I need to backup my phone, but I can't do it on itunes without my password. Everything besides screen is ok. Is there a way around it? :(

    I have recently upgraded from my iphone 5 to a new phone. My iphone 5 's touch screen does not work anymore. I need to backup my phone, but I can't do it on itunes without my password. Everything besides the screen is completely fine-the screen will not recognize my finger anymore. I am not trying to fix the phone, but I need to have my contacts. The pictures have already synced, but I need my password to do a full backup. Unfortunately, I can't type in my password. Is there any way around it? If I take my phone to the apple store, will they be able to help me? I am not willing to replace the screen just to do this, however, so that is out of the question. 

    Someone else may have a workaround, but, as far as I know, if you cannot interact with the screen on the iPhone, there is no way to unlock it so you can get to your contacts.
    Were you saving them to iCloud by chance? If so, you can restore them to your new phone.

    Hi,
    ASUS does not make "Pavillion 23tm ", only HP. Anyway, hope no damage after a repair. Please try:

    Otherwise, ask the repairer to fix it for you.

  • Omni 10 touch screen does not work / Tablet Omni 10 non funziona il touch screen

    After updates to Windows, the tablet does not recognize the touch screen.
    I tried all the recommendations of the forum but to no avail !! it is impossible that HP does not have a solution to the problem? I see that others have similar problems, so it is a manufacturing defect? Amazon also because I would replace the product with another Omni 10 but if this has the same problem, I take the money and make change. thanks
    Dopo gli aggiornamenti a Windows, il tablet non riconosce il touch screen.
    Ho provato tutti i consigli dei forum ma senza esito!! è impossibile che HP non abbia una soluzione al problema? Ho visto che altri hanno problemi simili, quindi è un difetto di fabbricazione? Anche perchè Amazon mi sostituirebbe il prodotto con un altro Omni 10 ma se anche questo ha lo stesso problema, prendo i soldi e cambio marca. Grazie

    Hey @MaxAlex72 ,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand you're experiencing issues with the touch screen on your Omni 10 tablet.
    I would suggest following these guides:
    Windows 8 System Restore Guide
    Troubleshooting Touch Screen Issues in Windows 8
    If neither of those options help it would be best to contact HP Phone Support for service options. Please call our technical support at 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the following link to get the support number for your region: Phone Assist Worldwide.

  • My touch screen does not respond to my "slide to unlock". reset does not help. iPhone 4S works otherwise.

    my touch screen does not respond to my "slide to unlock". reset does not help. iPhone 4S works otherwise.

    I cannot use it. I can get calls and text messages but I can't respond because the screen is locked and I can't "slide to unlock" because the touch screen does not work.

  • HT1766 My touch screen does not seem to be working. The slide to unlock will not slide

    My touch screen does not seem to be working. I can not slide to open my phone or slide to turn off.

    You have tried restarting, right? Also, try holding the home and sleep/wake buttons together for at least 10 seconds, until the Apple logo appears. See if that helps. If it doesn't and you think this is a hardware problem, taking it into the Apple Store is your best bet.

  • My touch pad does not work only when using Safari browser. The screen was grey. Help!

    I would try:

    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Go to Settings>Safari and delete cache, history and cookies.

    i don't see a way for you to back up your phone, because it will require you to unlock the phone. 

  • I have an ipod touch 3rd generation and the whole touch screen is not working.

    I have a 32gb ipod which I bought for fifty dollars and when i bought it had a pretty baddly cracked screen but thing is it worked fine. Every part of the screen worked fine; it was as senstive where the screen was cracked as the areas of the screen that were not cracked. I dropped it a couple times from like two or three feet on two a hard wood floor about four times all it did was make the cracks on the screen a little worse. Then one day I dropped it from about a foot and now the whole touch screen is not working does anyone know why this is. They told me at the ipod store to get a new one would be 130 to trade mine in. But the thing is I very mechanically inclined and I am very good with electrionics; I was planing on buying the glass for fifty bucks and putting it on myself because I read how to do it and I am more then capapble of doing it. But now since the touch screen is now working; do I need a new screen along with a new glass? See the thing is because I think both those part cost 120 together. Which would not be worth me doing that when I can go to the ipod store and they would trade me a new one for 130 bucks. But the issue is, they told me at the ipod store they would have to look and see how damaged the ipod is to see if they will exchange it. My screen is severly cracked; also I have a dent that is a half inch long and 1/8th inch deep in the back of my ipod and its very scracthed up; do you thing an ipod store would exchange it in the condition it is in. Also has anybody had this problem before and I was wondering if it would be possible for me to take it apart and fix it my self without buying any new parts.

    If I were you, I would pay the $130 for a replacement. Then you can be sure that it has all the working parts it needs.

    Dear all,
    I had the same issue with my nokia 5800, finally I found very interesting thing, I have been doing everything to bring my phone back to original  condition where simply I can touch and access the phone.
    Actually the issue was with the thin plastic piece which was put on the touch screen for its protection. I was struggling to touch and access the phone but i coudnt for almost 2 weeks, it was directing me to bottom left corner touch buttons of the phone and automatically opens and activate functional which I didn't want.
    Solution was, I simply removed the thin plastic layer from the phone , Now it works fine.
    Hope this will help.
