Why does my touchscreen just stop working?

My iPhone has taken it upon its self to freeze from time to time. Calling my phone banking is fun when the screen freezes mid way through typing in my ID. What the **** is going on, My software is up to date, I charge the battery everynight. Does anyone have the same problems and is there a cure?

TS1307 Why does send mail just stop working and how do you fix it?

Using MacBook Pro bought last Chrismas and its mail client 5.2
In the last 2 weeks send mail has stopped working for both my wife and myself (we have different logins / accounts / email address providers)
We have tried different wifi / isp providers
rebuilding the mail database
accessing preferences and changing the default ports to specified port 25 and then back again
taking the mail accounts off-line and then back on again
deleting the accounts and then creating just one simple one (GMail)
no change - send mail still does not go.
What should we do now?
What have we done wrong to cause this to fail in the first place?
It was working fine, but now it is not.
It is quite worryingand a fix would be greatly appreciated
Thanks in advance
Steve

Hmmm, here's the opposite problem/fix...
Gmail send but not receive...
Here are two steps that have come in handy in related situations
1) login to gmail on your computer or device via a web browser
2) once logged in successfully, go to this URL to unlock:
https://www.google.com/accounts/DisplayUnlockCaptch
Is your gMail POP or IMAP?
If IMAP...
Is the Outgoing server smtp.gmail.com, port 25, SSL on, & Authentication = Password

Why does my iPod Shuffle stop working after a few songs?

I had my iPod Shuffle for about a month now and it's already causing me trouble.
I would play a couple of songs, but when I go to change it, it stops working. I turn it off and on again only to have it take me back to where I started off at (e.g. Let's say I have 100 songs, I start at 50 and I get to 55 before it shuts off. When I turn it back on, it starts at 50 all over again). This process would happen over and over again with seemingly no end.
So my question is, why does my iPod Shuffle stop working after a few songs and how can I fix it?
I already tried using the iTunes troubleshooting guide, but nothing worked.
Details -
4th Generation
I only use it at the gym or when I'm running
I've only used the Apple products that came with it so far
(e.g. charger, headphones, etc.)
881 MB are still left
Music stops randomly, no common number or pattern

I had the same problem, I purchased a new ipod shuffle, followed the instructions but it would stop after a few songs and I would have to shut it off, wait and turn it back on and it would go back to the same song and then once again, after a few songs it would shut off. I returned the ipod and got another one, same thing happened. This is how I resolved the issue.
1. open itunes, make sure its up to date, then connect your shuffle to your pc
2.on the left of the itunes window, select your ipod, then at the top select music then check the sync box and select "selected playlists"
3.then go back and click on your ipod on the left, a message will appear just select apply
all of your music should be emptied from your ipod.
4.delete all of your playlists on the left, this will not delete anything from your library. Delete the "purchased" playlist under itunes store on the left as well, once again this will not delete anything from your library
5.There should be an arrow just in front of your ipod, click on this arrow and you should see your music file for the ipod appear, this should be the only file that you see, everything else should be deleted.
6. go to your music library and check only the songs that you want to load into your ipod. Double click on each song to make sure that they all play.
If you find a song that does not play you should be asked to authorize it, don't waste your time that did not solve the issue for me, instead cancel to authorize the song and then delete the song and move it to recycle bin. Once the song is deleted a cloud should appear, click on the cloud and download the song again, when done, make sure the song plays and that it is checked.
7.After you have made sure that all of the songs play and are checked, click on your ipod once more, located to the left, check the box "sync only checked songs" then from the top select music. In the music window select "sync music' and then select "entire music Library"
8. Go back to the left and click on the arrow in front of your ipod, you should see the music file, click on the music file and you should see all of your music being loaded to your ipod.
9. When all of the music is done loading, eject your ipod by clicking on the arrow located after the battery symbol where your ipod appears on the left
10. Turn on your ipod and scroll through your songs to make sure that the problem is resolved.
Not sure if all of this was necessary but it worked for me.

TS3274 why would touch screen just stop working?

The touch screen just stopped working, it is charged, can not turn off, can't do anything with screen. Has anyone else had this problem and any suggestions
as to how to fix. Thanks in advance

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

Why does Premier elements keep stopping working?

Premier elements keeps shutting down with a message saying that it has stopped working and will find asolution to the problem on line but it never connects with anything nor does it provide any answers.

Garth,
What has happened is that recently, some camera mfgrs. have broken from long-established "standards," regarding their video output. We see more of this with less-expensive stills cameras, that also shoot video.
For decades, the standards for SD (Standard Definition) Video has been:
NTSC:
720 x 480 Standard 4:3 with a PAR (Pixel Aspect Ratio) of 0.9 (pixels are taller, than wide).
720 x 480 Widescreen 16:9 with a PAR of 1.2 (pixels are wider, than tall).
PAL:
720 x 576 Standard 4:3 with a PAR of 1.06 (pixels are wider, than tall, but not by much).
720 x 576 Widescreen 16:9 with a PAR of 1.422 (pixels are wider, than tall).
768 x 576 Square Pixel w/ a PAR of 1.00
With Stills, which usually use Square Pixels, the size of 640 x 480 works fine, but with Video, the cameras used non-square pixles, in the appropriate PAR. Camera mfgrs. got lazy, and just decided on their own, that they would not bother creating Video with rectangular pixels, like the video standards, and just use the 640 x 480 w/ PAR of 1.0.
Now, PrE 10 was coded, before this became so popular. It is also built around video standards, with output, such as DVD-Video the main focus.
If enough camera mfgrs. have begun producing cameras, that create video at the 640 x 480 w/ PAR = 1.0, then I feel that Adobe will include that Project Preset, and maybe as soon as PrE 11, due out in a few months.
PrPro handles such things differently, in that it offers a Custom Project/Sequence Preset, which allows the user to match the Project/Sequence to odd footage in most attributes. However, PrE does not offer such, and only addresses more standard formats. I have filed Feature Requests for that Custom Preset for about 5 years now, but so far, no-go. As PrPro costs about 6x what PrE does, there WILL be some differences between the two programs, and so far, this is one of them.
We will just have to wait and see what is introduced in the future - though by then, camera mfgrs. might go off on another tangent, and decide to use some other format and PAR for their cameras. Who knows?
Some users have had success at hacking PrE's Presets, to accommodate other formats (several such hacked Presets are listed in the Tips & Tricks sub-forum, with links to that work), but I have not seen one for 640 x 480 PAR = 1.0.
If one does mind either a bit of Scaling, and cropping of the Video Frame, or a little bit of distortion, they can use that footage in a Standard Preset, and just adjust it a little.
Good luck, and I hope that this explains why Adobe has not caught up to this deviation from the standards.

Why does pinch-to-zoom stop working randomly?

For hours at a time, pinch-to-zoom will stop working, and swipe to go back/forth in safari will cause the page to crash. Does anyone else have this problem or know of a work around?

Restarting is not much of a solution; this has happened to me twice in as many days now. What is the permanent solution?

Why does my wifi connection stop working sometimes?

Hello.
Maybe this has already been answered and I'm sorry but I didnt know what word to use in english to find the exact problem in google lol.
Well, The problem is that my wifi connection seems to stop working sometimes, it takes about 1 to 10 min and then it just comes back. I can notice it because Safari stop to load pages, the appstore doesnt load, and I tried with google chrome : same results
I experience this about 2 to 5 times a day, it's just pretty annoying. The wifi logo shows that it is always connected, it never shows that he is reconnecting
May this be a router problem...? Or simply the computer
My specs : 1,6GHz, intel core i5
2go of RAM. It's a 2 years old MBA
Thanls a lot !

Hi CPUGenuis!
I have an article for you that addresses this situation and will help you troubleshoot this issue:
Wi-Fi: How to troubleshoot Wi-Fi connectivity
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4628
Symptom: The network connection drops unexpectedly
Your Mac may not not stay connected to your Wi-Fi network reliably.
Your Mac may stop accessing the Internet during use.
Solution
Use these steps if your computer disconnects from its Wi-Fi network unexpectedly.
Check your range to the Wi-Fi router and reduce the effect of interference.
If your computer is too far from your Wi-Fi router or your environment has too much Wi-Fi interference, then your computer may not detect the Wi-Fi network properly. The easiest way to check for range limits with your Wi-Fi network is to move your computer or your Wi-Fi router closer together and make sure that there are no obstructions (such as walls, cabinets, and so forth) between the router and your computer.
See Potential sources of wireless interference for more information about interference and solutions.
Try connecting to a different Wi-Fi network. If your computer works fine when connected to a different Wi-Fi network, then the issue may be related to your network router or ISP. In that case, contact the manufacturer of your router or your ISP.
Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!

Why does photoshop cc 2014 stop working when extracting 3D

I recently acquired photoshop cc 2014 and would like to use 3D. When I try to extrude a file, my photoshop stops working. I have an AMD Radeon HD 8400 graphics card.

Hello Mylenium,
Thank you for the reply, how would I go about providing detailed system info? Is there an automated method that displays the necessary information? Also, it might be worth noting that my older version of Photoshop (CC x64bit (NOT 2014)) works completely fine.

My WIn7 machine did this all the time on YouTube. I uninstalled BOTH Flash Player and Shockwave. Then I reinstalled Shockwave first, followed by Flash Player. I haven't seen a crash since.

Why does the scroll wheel stop working since version 3.6

Ever since the installation of version 4.0 there has been an issue with the scroll wheel not working properly. For the most part it works but occasionally the wheel stops working and no longer scrolls the pages up and down. At this point I need to close out the browser and reopen.

Thanks for the reply, I have checked my driver and shows it is up to date. I manually updated the driver again but as it was unzipping the files all the existing files were being replaced with files with the same build date so I'm pretty sure the mouse driver is up to date.
Is IE Tab an addon for firefox? If so then I don't have it installed.
