Touch Wheel Doesn't Work

I don't know why, or if this has ever happened to anyone else, but I was using it one day, and then a part of the touch wheel just stopped working, and then all of it stopped working for a short time, not just a small portion is working again...any suggestions?

I have the same problem on my 40gb Dock Connector Model. My Mac and iTunes do see it as does the updater. I would hope that resetting it would work but it does not seem to respond to any button quickly and will not register both the menu and play buttons at the same time. Further my scroll wheel is not working at all.
This is what I get for buying a crappy model in the first place and getting a refurbished replacement? Apple really needs to step up its support. They seem to be producing more lemons these days then ever. Its a shame too b/c I like using their products when they actually work.
So many people on this forum have posted similar problems in a very short amount of time. This seems like a big software or hard drive failure and Apple should fix it warranty or not.

  • My palm m105's touch screen doesn't work properly after a sync.

    I dug out my old m105, put new batteries in and start it. On first launch it auto runs the alignment tool, and after touching all the points it goes to the main screen and works fine. No problem till here.
    Now, I plug it into my old computer which still has the palm software with my apps, and I run the sync operation (from the palm device sync manager, cause I lost my cradle and I'm connected via the serial cable), and it syncs fine BUT, here comes the problem, when it finishes the sync (successfully) the touch screen is all misaligned. I can't go back to the home screen or do anything useful.

    Let's help solve this mystery together! Is your screen freezing after every reboot? Is there any physical/liquid damage on the device? When did this issue begin? Did you notice this after a recent update or application download?

  • I cant open apps on my iPhone 4 the touch screen doesn't work.  I have restored my phone and still nothing works.

    I can't open apps on my iPhone.  The touch screen doesn't work.  I have restored it already but it still won't work.  What can I do.

    If the touch screen is not having any response then you probably have a hardware failure. Take your phone to an Apple Store or authorised service provider to have it checked.

    Why????

    After IOS update, you first have to use passcode.

    - 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 usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Whenever I try to sync my ipod touch, it doesn't work.  The computer seems to get hung.  What could be happening?

    Whenever I try to sync my ipod touch, it doesn't work.  The computer seems to get hung during the back up stage.  It says it is backing up the ipod but nothing happens, for hours.  I eventually have to interrupt it and give up.

    I have the latest itunes.
    I tried resetting sync history.
    For this section:
    If the issue persists, and you know all your contacts, calendars, bookmarks and notes are on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch:
    Remove all of the contact and calendar information from Outlook.
    Select the device in iTunes and click the Info tab.
    Scroll down to the Advanced section, and under "Replace information on this iPhone/iPad/iPod touch" make sure Contacts and Calendars are not selected.
    Click Apply.
    This doesn't seem to make sense for my situation.  I don't sync anything between outlook and my ipod touch. 
    I have no other USB devices connected to my computer.
    I have no other Windows users on my computer - only me and I am the administrator.  However on my diagnostic, it said this user is not the administrator.  Weird.
    So I have tried to follow that you referred me to, but still I haven't got it working yet.  Do you have any further suggestions?

  • Touch screen doesn't work!!!

    I got my TP two weeks ago, played with it for a day and a half then, in the middle of surfing the web, the touch screen doesn't work. I've contacted HP support and sent my device in for repair. I got it back two days ago (12/30/2011), worked totally fine for 20 mins and the touch screen didn't work again. I've tried using WebOS Doctor 3.0, 3.0.2, 3.0.4 nothing works.
    I've tried rebooting it multiple times, still doesn't work. Frustrating I must say....
    Any suggestions?
    Post relates to: HP TouchPad (WiFi)

    Gotcha, so I just want to make sure I'm following you correctly. At this point the screen is probably all black from the auto-turn-off thing. You hit the power button, and the little yellow lock icon appears on the bottom. But when you try to drag the little lock icon, nothing happens. Does that describe what's happening to you?

  • BT Synergy 5500 touch tone doesn't worK

    I've just bought a pair of these and the touch tone doesn't work on either.
    The last pair of cheap non-BT phones  I had did have working touch tone so I'm thinking it must be phoen related but surely these 5500's must have working touch tone out of the box? Please help. Thanks.

    Hi tallbaul, the 5500 should be set up as touch tone from the box, but it is simple to change if for some reason it isn't, just press and hold the * key to switch between tone and pulse (if you still got the user manual its covered on page 10).
    If this doesn't work it might mean the phone is faulty and a replacement is required.

  • The mouse scroll wheel doesn't work with Xorg

    I recently installed Solaris 10 on my x86 box. One issue is that the mouse scroll wheel doesn't work with Xorg. Hmmm... Okay, it sometimes did work, and most of the time went on strike, and recovered at random. This pattern continued.
    My mouse is an ordinary PS/2 one with two buttons and a scroll wheel. I want to promise that there's absolutely nothing wrong with it per se. Here is some info:
    $ uname -a
    SunOS arbiter 5.10 Generic_127112-07 i86pc i386 i86pc
    $ grep -i mouse /var/log/Xorg.0.log

    # Note that the only result of explicitly changing protocol to ExplorerPS/2, PS/2, IMPS/2 or whatever else is that the cursor jumped here and there and everywhere when I moved the mouse.I ever post one in comp.unix.solaris to ask for help but got no effective solution. Thank you all.

    You remember correctly, Yvan.

  • I have an iPod touch 2nd generation and my touch screen doesn't work, at all. What should I do?

    I have an iPod touch 2nd generation and my touch screen doesn't work, at all. What should I do?

    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.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                                
    iOS: How to back up                                                                                     
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    I cannot use my ipad2 because the touch screen doesn't work at all. First I cannot unlock it or do anything in the screen!!!! Why?

    Have you tried a reset To see if that fixes it ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • TS3992 How can I back up an iphone when I haven't set the phone up for back ups & the touch screen doesn't work? The phone can receive calls (not answer) & the pictures & messages can be seen but touch screen doesn't work to unlock the phone or select any

    How can I back up an iphone when I haven't set the phone up for back ups & the touch screen doesn't work? The phone can receive calls (not answer) & the pictures & messages can be seen but the touch screen doesn't work to unlock the phone or select anything. We want to save/transfer pictures, contacts, and music to the replacement phone.

    Try backing it up to your computer with iTunes.  Connect it to your computer, open iTunes, click on the name of the phone in iTunes, go to the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings and click Back Up Now.  Also go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases to transfer you apps and other purchased media to your iTunes library.
