Touch screen will not function on settings app

went to settings to change something and screen is frozen.  will not move in any direction with touch of finger.

Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • Touch screen will not function on email

    Hi, the touch screen on my Iphone 4 will not function when I open email.  It seems to work with all other apps/areas on the phone.  In addition, I cannot power off as the power off button does nothing, nor can I do a hard reset.  Has anyone else had this problem or know what I can do to fix this?  Thank you!

  • Touch screen will NOT operate to sync media

    I have the replacement phione, but the touch screen will not operate and i have no way of syncing media - ALL pictures - to my PC. This is the SECOND replacement phone, but at least the last time it froze, I was still able to sync.
    Thanks for any direction!

    Thanks - that worked great. Next question -  Am I able to erase all of the persoanl data from the handset? I realize everything is bacled up by Palm, but my concern is the actual handset, and if the touchscreen were to be activated again, all date is readily accessable. i would like to wipe the handset clean.
    Thanks again....

  • My touch screen will not work at all. I cant even turn it off, so i dont know what do to?

    My touch screen will not work.

    Hey ajnissly25,
    Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, the touchscreen on the iPhone wont work. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Troubleshooting touchscreen response
    If you can't restart your device, reset it by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for a least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Have a great day,

  • My ipad is working very slow touch screen is not wokring perfectly and apps keep switching off when i play

    IPad Mini, 64GB, IOS 8.1.
    My IPad is working very slow.
    The touch screen is not working as good.
    Many problems when i play a game ( Real Racing 3) keeps on turning off when i play.
    Camera is also blurry.
    Screen sometimes goes blank.

    Try these basic troubleshooting steps.
    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History and Website Data
    Now close all apps. In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Next, reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    If those three things made no difference, try this. Reset all settings. You will not lose any data, but most of the device settings will have to be entered in the settings app again. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Settings.
    If all of that fails, restore the iOS software. Backup your iPad before you restore, then restore the backup when you are done. If that still doesn't help, restore your iPad as new and start all over again. Most purchased content can be downloaded again at no charge as long as you use the same Apple ID and as long as the content is still available in the store.

  • Officejet Pro 8600 touch screen will not respond

    Hi,
    I have the HP Officejet Pro 8600 and the touch pad will not turn on. The power is on! I actualy cannot turn it off by pressing the off button, even when I unplug it and plug it back in it is like it was never unplugged. This all started when I updated my MAC to the new operating system and then I noticed where the paper comes out there were blue blinking lights. I pressed the off button and the lights stopped, but now nothing will respond. This is a wireless printer. Please advise what to do.
    Thank you,
    Tanya (Personal information removed)

    Hello Tanyaward,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    I see that you are having an issue with the touch pad not responding or lighting up.
    First off, please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
    Once the printer is connected to a wall outlet, please  attempt to use the power button to turn the unit off and then back on again.  This will do a semi reset on the unit.
    If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.
    Thanks for your time.

  • HT2292 Phone indicates connection to itunes on screen, will not function, after rebooting the itunes connection screen is still there.

    While downloading update, itune connection screen will not go away, phone will not work even after rebooting with itunes connection screen reappearing

    Your iPhone is in recoverty mode at the moment so to possibly get it back up and running you would need to do a restore as you have been trying. Follow the steps in the article below for the specific error messages you have been receiving. If after following all steps the issue remains book an appointment at a local Apple Retail Store to have the iPhone evaluated.

  • My ipod touch screen will not rotate

    My screen will not rotate. I understand it does not rotate when the keyboard is open, but is ther a rotate lock button somewhere?

You access the lock by double clicking the Home button and going all the way to the left on the lower part of the screen.  you will either see a circled arrow or the circled arrow with a padlock inside.  Tap to change.

  • My iPhone 4s touch screen will not work with an active SIM card in it.

    A few months ago my touch screen stopped working suddenly on my iPhone 4s. After I removed my active SIM card from the 4s, the touch screen started working again. As soon as I put my SIM card in again, it stopped working. I finally broke down and took it into a store where they replaced the screen. It started working again for about 5 days. Then this morning it just quit working again. I have restarted it and reset it. All of the software was up to date when it stopped working, so I haven't done anything with that. Could someone please help me with this? It's getting a little frustrating.

  • My iPod touch screen will not work.

    Ever since last night, my iPod's touch screen has been messed up. I didn't use it incorrectly or anything; I just used my iPod like I normally did for the past eight months. I have seen no problems until now. The iPod's keyboard is screwed up, when I press the letter "a" the capitalizing button is activated. They same is repeated over and over among over letters as well. The first sign of the issue was when I was trying to watch a video, the play button refused to be pressed and random things were constantly activated while I did nothing. The lock screen slide doesn't work either, the only way to get into my iPod is my activating the lock camera and then pressing the home button. Should I restore the iPod or is there a quick way to fix this?

    Your screen digitizer needs to be replaced. See options in link below.

  • My Ipod touch screen will not come  up unless I conect it to the computer. It never gets past the apple logo and never fully retores? My screen is crackd a little at the bottom. Is this a screen or software problem?

    My ipod touch 4will not respond unless  I hook it up to the computer. It never goes pasthe logo apple screen.It never restores fully. Cant tell if this is a screen or software problem.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on

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

  • My new iPad 2 touch screen will not swipe right and left

    Have tried several web pages. Cannot swipe right or left

    At least not with Safari. There are many other browsers in the App Store with more features than Safari has to offer. iCab Mobile is my favorite and my browser of choice. You can swipe from web page to web page with one finger with iCab Mobile. It's the best $1.99 app I ever bought.
