TS1702 Touchscreen stops responding on fast movements

Hi guys,
I'm using the latest IPad and I am very happy with the device ) But I noticed a strange behavior: When I'm moving my finger very fast on the screen it sometimes "loses" contact - as if my finger (still on the screen) would not be there on screen anymore. Another touch with the same finger and tadaa, it continues to respond.
For example: When using a painting app and I move my finger very fast from one side of the screen to another side the line I painted only follows half of the way. Or if I'm moving on the home screen very fast from one side to another the screen suddenly stops and does not react on my finger anymore.
I already rebooted (sleep + home button), but it changed nothing. And it only happens when moved very fast.
Question: Is this a normal behavior and based on technical circumstances? Or is my device simply... uhm.... "broken"? Hope someone can help me

Sounds like you have VoiceOver (one of the accessibility features) 'on' - if you turn the volume up do you get a voice saying what you are tapping ? If you do then try triple-clicking the home button and see if that turns it off, and if it does you can then change what a triple-click does via Settings > General > Accessibility > Triple-Click Home.
If that doesn't turn it off then you can either turn it off directly on the iPad (you need to use a tap-to-select and then double-tap to activate/type process and 3 fingered scrolling) to go into Settings > General > Accessibility and turn VoiceOver 'off', or you can do it by connecting to your computer's iTunes : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4064

    Hello,
    I had that problem as well and the apple support suggested to turn off the LTE-mode to have a running system and try to exchange the micro-sim by my provider.
    THAT was not an option!
    BUT it seems to solve my problem in the following way after trying a lot of possibilties:
    In the menue properties/help (don't know the exact english word, because I run my phone in german)
    I switched on the nice feature 'flash LED' by incomming calls, msgs, and push infos.
    Today the flash feature was responding to different push notes very slowly.
    By switching this feature off the LTE-mode-tochscreen-not-responding-problem disappeared.
    We tried this on a other iphone, not having the metioned problem, and switched the LED-flash:
    the problem appeared. Switching the LED-flash off: problem disappeared!
    It seems to be a bug that the LED will hint Calls and MSGs in combination with the LTE mode!
    treated my phone very hard today to double check, but its still ok.
    @Apple:
    Please fix that issue in the next update.
    Hope, this helps you guys as well.

    My touchscreen stopped responding to my finger and I can't unlock the screen...any idea how to remedy this problem?

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

  • Dock & Menu-bar stop responding to mouse move

    Hello!
    I've been having a strange problem for quite some time now. After some time of working on my mac the dock and all the menus (including the menu bar on the top of the screen) stop responding to mouse move. At the same moment also my "hot-corners" stop working. For example when I move my mouse over the dock the magnification does not happen and when I run my mouse over the menus they don't highlight. When I move the mouse to a hot corner which was attached to Expose or ScreenSaver start nothing happens there either. Whole system acts really unpredictable.
    I tried killing Finder, changing resolution when this happened,... Nothing helps but a reboot, but rebooting machine so frequently is driving me a bit nuts.
    Please, help!
    Other details: OSX 10.5.6 (this has been happening from the start - through all versions), MacbookPro
    Thanks in advance.
    Y.

    Ran Disk Utility off the DVD and repaired permissions and repaired the disk. Problems were found in both although, they appeared minimal. Despite that, the same issues where present when I woke it up from Sleep mode in the morning.
    Whenever I hovered my mouse over the menu bar, the cursor would turn into the spinning beachball. The dock didn't freeze as it had done every time before, but if I clicked on an application it would become highlighted and stay that way without it actually opening. The opening animation never took place either.
    Until some fix comes out, my next step will be checking to see what software I last updated before the problem started a few days ago and seeing if I can roll back.

  • Pre2 gets hot; touchscreen stops responding

    I'm finding that my Pre2 gets 'warm' particularly when using the touchstone charger. Once it gets warm, the touchscreen stops responding. Restarting the device doesn't typically help, but normal service is restored once the 'phone cools down again having been removed from the touchstone.
    By 'warm' I mean 'pleasantly warm in the hand' rather than 'frighteningly hot', but I've never noticed a 'phone get particularly warm before.
    Is this a common fault / feature? Any advice gratefully received ...
    Post relates to: Pre 2 p102ueu (Unlocked EU)

    Thanks for the replies ... at least it's not just me!
    As you say, Internet access is also an issue - five minutes of use seems to require five minutes of rest to cool down again. It's just not usable like that ...
    The 'unresponsiveness' appears to afflict the keypad as well as the touchscreen - altogether pretty disappointing.

  • TS1702 Numbers stops responding after editing sheet

    Numbers stops responding after editing sheet.  No amount of tapping does anything.  I have to close app and loose edits...
    How do I report a bug?  This is impacting my desire to even use numbers.

    You sound like you really have a good idea on what you are doing .. your steps to isolate the issue are perfectly valid. All I can suggest are a few things I would try and of course these too may not assist at all but at least we will give it a go ..
    FCPX 10.0.6 while not perfect , is a very stable program. I use it fairly frequently and any crashes I see are explainable or at least due in some way to a combination of things I was doing. So the issue is in al probability not a 'DNA - inherent issue with FCPX .. You mention that you did trash the preferences but did you Repair Permissions using te Disk Utility tool ? I would run that .. Create two new folders on the same drive as that of your Final Cut Events and Final Cut Projects .. Call these new folders Hidden Final Cut Events and Hidden Final Cut Projects . Move the contents of FC Events into Hidden FC Events and the contents of FC Projects into Hidden FC Projects. All this will do is hide the events and projects from FCPX at start up and it will create a new event.
    See if any of this helps .. then if not come back .. hopefully others with better ideas will join in and you will get this sorted ..

  • Iphone Touchscreen stopped responding when a call came. weird problem.....

    My iPhone was working fine. A call came and the touchscreen was not working. Touchscreen replacement was advised. I pressed the top right buttom and home button simultaneously for a restart and touchscreen was not working. I didn't have money so I brought it back home. After 3 weeks I put it for charge on my PC and first it showed charging sign...and then suddenly it asked for my password to unlock and the touchscreen was working fine. I charged fully and the iPhone worked perfectly fine for a day.
    When I put it for charge the other day, the touchscreen stopped working. Same problem. I tried to restore factory setting option in which everything will be erased and copied again but error 1604 is coming.
    Do I have to change the touchscreen? I don't think the touchscreen is damaged. Maybe software problem. Please help me, guide me.
    Thank you in advance!

    Well, the dropping may have damaged something, perhaps related to the lock mechanism. Just have it checked in a Care Center.

  • Whole touchscreen stops responding - major problem!

    phone is one month old, has had no bumps or knocks, and suddenly today the touchscreen stopped working. no software updates had been done. all other buttons worked fine, but whole touchscreen behaved like an ordinary piece of glass. reboot only temporary fix, kept freezing within minutes or less, but home button & sleep button always worked - eventually reset whole phone with fresh software in itunes, took hours to set up again, lost all apps layout which is a total pain - and same problem is occuring!
    anyone with a fix please reply (hint: this means YOU apple) as i just can't afford my super expensive phone to keep acting like a brick when i'm trying to use it!

    thanks for the heads-up re:apple... silly me thinking apple techs might read this thread on an apple website
    weekend here now so will head into the store if still doing it on monday... ive read a lot of 3GS users having this problem but not come across any other iphone 4 users as yet. if this problem sounds familiar, please comment, & state what you did to resolve it

  • IdeaCentre B530 Touchscreen Stopped Responding

    Hello, 
    I've had my B530 for roughly a month and a half, and suddenly, today, the multi-touch feature has completely stopped responding. I have tried restarting the system, calibrating Pen and Touch, troubleshooting, using my fingernail, etc. Unfortunately nothing seems to work. Does anyone have any suggestions?

  • Touchscreen stops responding in Mail app?

    This started happening yesterday - haven't recently updated iOS (still on 5.1.1) or installed any new apps etc....
    I'll open the Mail app, be browsing messages etc, and all of a sudden I can't type or click any of my messages or any other buttons in the app, however if I press the home button I can use everything else as normal... if I quit the process and then re-open the Mail app it works fine again for a little while but then stops......??
    Any ideas?

    I also bought a Dell Inspiron 15 7537 and I had the same problem as OP, but on Fedora 21 64-bit with Gnome 3.14. I haven't tried any other distros or DEs. However, both Arch and Fedora run systemd, so I think my solution work the same on both systems. I fixed it by doing the following steps:
    1. Create a script that reloads the kernel module hid_multitouch.
    $ sudo mkdir /opt/touchscreen-fix
    $ cd /opt/touchscreen-fix
    $ echo '#!/bin/sh
    /sbin/rmmod hid_multitouch && /sbin/modprobe hid_multitouch' | sudo tee resume.sh
    $ sudo chmod +x resume.sh
    Executing this script after a resume will make the touchscreen work again. However, it will of course not run automatically after a resume.
    2. Schedule the script to run after resume.
    Create the systemd service file:
    $ echo '[Unit]
    Description=Fix touchscreen after resume
    After=suspend.target
    [Service]
    Type=simple
    ExecStart=/opt/touchscreen-fix/resume.sh
    [Install]
    WantedBy=suspend.target' | sudo tee /etc/systemd/system/touchscreen-fix.service
    Enable it:
    $ sudo systemctl daemon-reload
    $ sudo systemctl enable touchscreen-fix
    Done! And that's all! I'm not sure if you also might need to restart the computer for it to work.
    To accomplish this I used the following resources:

  • My touchscreen stopped responding

    Hi,      my touchscreen is not responding after my new update to windows 8.1 i have tried going to the pen and touch setting but it has no option there, i tried the device manager but i dont see the mouse and other pointing device instead i see mice and other pointing device and it only has one option the alps pointing device, i tried configuring it but i need to touch the screen to do that, i dont know what else to do i miss the touch gesture and really need help fixing it. Thanks.

  • Why does my iPad 3rd gen. stop responding after 5 minutes of use? The home button still works but the touchscreen doesn't react.

    This is getting incredibly annoying.  I've had this thing for 3 months and I can't use it for more than 5 mins at a time because the touchscreen stops responding!!! I tried restoring it to its factory defaults and it still keeps messing up.

    Make Sure iOS is updated to the latest version
    Reboot the device by pressing and holding down the home and sleep/wake buttons (power) at the same time until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
    If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings
    If that doesn't work, then update iTunes on computer, backup device to iTunes, then restore the device.

  • Lenovo Flex 10 touchscreen stops working after 1 hour of use.

    Just bought a new Lenovo Flex 10 from a retail and it works perfectly except that after an hour of use the touchscreen stops working, the computer still works ok, but only with the mousepad. The notebook came with Windows 8.1, and I haven't installed any program on it. I need an urgent response please, since i've been looking for days in the community and other support pages, and still can't get a satisfactory answer and the period to get the a refund are about to expire.
    Thanks in advance.

    hi riglesias,
    Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
    Once the Touchscreen stops responding, can you check the following:
    1. Open System Properties and see if the Touch functionality is still there 
      - Link to picture (Touchscreen feature is not detected)
      - Link to picture (Touchscreen feature is detected)
    If the Touchscreen feature is detected, proceed to Step 2.
    2. Press the Windows key‌ +R, type devmgmt.msc and press Enter. On the Device Manager, navigate to the Human Interface Devices section and uninstall anything that says HID-compliant device (this is the driver that controls the touchscreen). When finished, reboot the system and observe.
    3. If the Touchscreen is still not working, hold the Shift Key and hit the restart button inside Windows and you should be able to see the image below then try to tap on the screen to test and observe. I
    If the touch capability is still not functioning, I recommend you contact lenovo for service.

  • Macbook Pro 10.6.8 - Cursor moves by itself, types by itself, opens dashboard by itself, stops responding to keysto22000 there you go! Have switched out keyboards to no avail. Do not use wireless.

    Cursor moves by itself, types by itself, opens dashboard by itself, stops responding to keysto22000 - there be a good example. Seems to like the number 2. Have switched out keyboards to no avail. Do not use wireless. Does not start immediately upon turning on computer. Everything is okay from 10 to 20 minutes, then bang. Can deattach then attach keyboard and get a few moments of quiet. All this started today.

    If the same erratic behavior occurs when the external KB and mouse are completely disconnected, I think it's time for a Genius Bar appointment to have the problem diagnosed.
    http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/
    You'll probably want to get the machine revved up ahead of time so it's misbehaving when you walk in the door, rather than count on it to act up — or not — after you and the Genius have been standing around waiting for a while. (BTW, I'm assuming that once it starts acting up, it continues to do so until you give up and shut it down. Is that true?)

    When I close Firefox (using Task Manager), Firefox is still running under processes. After closing and reopening, error does not occur again until a reboot. I have followed the various "fixes" on various sites (including this one) and none works. I have uninstalled and reinstalled. I have uninstalled all add-ons. Unistalled/reinstalled Silverlight. Error continues. Does not occur on IE or Chrome. Moving to Chrome if a fix is not found. Started with upgrade to 37.0

    Are you getting any error message or no
    When Firefox hangs, it stops responding to your clicks and keystrokes and doesn't seem to be doing anything. Also, a "(Not Responding)" label is displayed in the title bar and the mouse becomes a spinning wait cursor when it's over the Firefox window. This article gives you solutions to Firefox hangs depending on when they happen
