Tungsten E difficulty with tapping on screen...

My Tungsten E display will not always navigate when I tap with the stylus. Also, difficulty moving the slider bar. I don't know if this is just because it is wearing out from overuse, or if replacing the screen will help at all. Sometimes I have to tap a spot 3 or 4 times before I get a response.

HELP!! I am having the exact same problem, and I am very sure the screen is going to get damaged due to the pressure required for the palm to respond. The worst spot is the lower right. I haven't had the unit more than a few months, and it was new in the package when I got it. The screen has always been like this. Hopefully SOMEONE can help us??

  • TS3367 my new ipad has blocked without any responce with tapping the screen

    Have you tried a 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.

  • Tungsten E2: On with a blank screen. Does not respond to resetting or to On/Off button.

    Three times in the past couple of months my Tungsten E2 has appeared with a lit, completely blank screen. It does not respond to the On/Off button nor to resetting, either soft or hard. This is true whether nor it is connected to its charger.
    By accident I discovered that I can recover by letting power run down. Eventually it shuts down. I then connect it to its charger; it recharges and recovers. All I lose, so far as I know, is the date and time.
    I'd appreciate any suggestions for preventing this from happening in the future or for an easier and quicker way to recover.
    Thanks,

    Are you sync'ing the new device to the same username in Palm Desktop as an older device?
    If you are, this will cause problems on the new device. When you sync the device, it saves the device settings, 3rd party apps, preferences, etc. in the backup folder in the username folder on the PC. When you sync the new device it copies the contents of the backup folder for the old device to the new device. This will cause corruption in the settings for the new device thus causing erratic behavior of the new device.
    If you are, you may need to hard reset your device and rename your backup folder. Go to http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=887 and follow the directions to do a hard reset. Next before you hotsync your data back over you will need to rename your backup folder, to do that go here;
    XP
    C:\program files\palm or palm one\[hotsync username]\ and rename your backup
    folder to backup.old
    Vista
    Start-->documents\Palm OS Desktop\[hotsync username]\ and rename your backup
    folder to backup.old
    Then hotsync to your current hotsync name and all your contacts, calendar,
    tasks, and memos will come back over.
    Show file extensions for XP or Vista
    XP
    If you can not view file extensions on your PC I would like you to open a
    folder go to Tools-->Folder Options--> View (tab) and under show hidden
    files and folders uncheck hide file extensions for known file types.
    Vista
    Open control Panel go to Folder Options--> View (tab) and under show hidden
    files and folders uncheck hide file extensions for known file types.

  • My iPad 2 with iOS 7 touchscreen is no longer responsive, although date/time is current as are off screen buttons. Tapping the screen merely produces a rectangular border around the tapped log in digit. No 'black to white' registers on the upper 4 dots

    Excuse brief text to above due to input limitations in original input field. I'd be grateful if anybody can give me any help to recover the situation. Thanks.

    i ve got an iphone 3gs and im having a trouble with its touch screen because when you sometimes tap it doesent respond?

    Often a Restart and a Reset will resolve these issues...
    iPhone Reset
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Try this First... You will Not Lose Any Data...
    Turn the Phone Off... ( if it isn’t already )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... (But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...
    Turn the Phone On...

  • Iphone 4 is making me double-tap the screen and is reading everything to me. How do I make that stop?

    My grandmother has an iphone 4. She doesn't know what happened but suddenly it started to read her everything and is making her double-tap her screen. How do I get that setting removed?

    This has to do with accessibility. You can triple-tap the home button to get it off for right now. Then go into Settings>General>Accessibility and turn off VoiceOver. If you have difficulty getting there, to use VoiceOver, you tap once to select an item, double-tap to activate it and swipe with 3 fingers to scroll.

  • How do I close an app so that when I restart it, it doesn't just come back with the last screen, i.e. I want to be able to restart the app from new, not a follow-on

    How do I close an app/session, such that when I restart it, it doesn't come backat where I left off, e.g. Safari, I want to restart with a new screen, not the one I previously closed from
    Thanks

    Depending on how the app is programmed, generally to force close an app, double tap the home button. You'll see the app icons and previews on the screen. Scroll sideways if needed to bring up the app in question. Flick the preview for that app up and off the screen. then single tap the home button or the home page preview to exit the mode
    The app should then reboot from closed instead of just reopening

  • My iPod Touch 3rd Gen is having problems with the touch screen being unresponsive, too responsive, freezing and constantly resizing. Is this a common problem? Is there a fix?

    My iPod Touch (3rd Gen) is having problems with the touch screen being unresponsive, too responsive, freezing and constantly resizing. It varies between not responding when I tap the screen and acting as if I double-tap or tap and hold when I tap. Every so often it freezes for a minute or so and then comes back. The scren is constantly changing sizes too such that I often can't see most of the top status bar or other edges. This makes typing almost impossible, ruins most games and generally makes everything difficult, but otherwise the iPod is working correctly. Powering off, shutting down apps, letting it sit have not worked. This has happened once before months ago, but the issue resolved itself somehow. Is this a common problem? Is there a fix?

    Try this for the freezing

    Or if they don't work put it into recovery mode

  • Problem with multi-touch screen when lid is closed

    I have a T400s with the MT screen, running a clean installed Win 7 32-bit and all latest Lenovo drivers/BIOS.
    I use external screen/keyboard/mouse at work so I am used to have the lid closed. I set in power management in the way that closing the lid does not do anything (e.g., sleep or hibernate).
    The problem is: when the lid is fully closed and external mouse is used, the mouse cursor randomly moves and clicks. When random clicks happen, I can see the finger-tap animation near the cursor on the external screen, suggesting that the MT screen receives input even when the lid is closed! It might be heat from the palm rest/keyboard area causing fake taps.
    Leaving the lid slightly open (like 15 degrees) solves this problem.
    EDIT 1: another clue of the above problem is that while the lid is closed, Windows 7's tablet input panel shows up on the left edge, which typically appears after a tap or a tablet pen gets close to the screen. I also noticed that the random clicks take place near the right edge of the screen.
    Solved!

    @ wesleyyin,
    certainly strange. Some questions to help with the diagnostics;
    Which TrackPoint cap you you have on your keyboard, soft domed, soft rim or classic domed (the hairy one)?
    Can you try disabling the TrackPoint to see the problem goes away?
    Anything else laid on top of the system or between screen and keyboard like a thin cloth or something?
    Thanks

  • Big difficulty with Adobe Reader

    I encounter big problems with Adobe Reader. I can read some documents and i cannot read others documents. I bought recently a new Sony computer and could install all applications without any difficulty  except Adober Reader.. The process to  install & use Adobe requires probably a professional. Please explain clearly how to use this Adobe. Many thanks in advance.

    Thank for your answer. Indeed i can open some documents PDF and i cannot open others documents PDF. Some of theses documents were before under Word available and yesterday they all came automatically under Adobe Reader.Those documents i cannot open under the arguments not available or not existent.
    Many thanks for explaining a simple way to solve this problem.

  • Why my ipad have problem with the rotation screen

    i have a problem with the rotation screen is locked, i try everything but nothing is happening help

    If you see a lock icon in the upper right corner of the screen - then the screen orientation is locked.
    Try the side switch above the volume rocker first and see if that unlocks the screen. If that doesn't do it, double tap the home button and swipe to the right and look for the lock icon all the way to the left.
    If the screen is unlocked but still will not rotate, reset the iPad.
    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 button
