Wont slide to unlock

my iphone 3g will not slide to unlock, i can slide to power off? its updated to latest software but still the same, i cant answer calls or any functions at all other than slide to power off, any ideas? thanks in advance.

Just had this happen today, was working last night, this morning the touch screen is not responding at all. Tried to do an apple logo reset and it just started clicking like a camera taking a picture. Done a full factory restore and still no touch screen functionality. Going crazy without my ipod, somebody please help me !!

    Force iPad into Recovery Mode
    1. Turn off iPad
    2. Connect USB cable to computer; leave the other end alone
    3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
    5. Release the Home button
    6. Open iTune
    7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
    8. Use iTune to restore iPad
    Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times.

  • Hi,my iphone    it wont slide to unlock

    my iphone it doesnt slide to unlock

    @kbroadbent82
    Even i had a same issue on my iphone 3gs. Its a boot memory issue and can be resolved in two ways
    1. You need to remove the battery and keep it for 20mins(Which is lil complicated if u donot know how to remove) then place it back so that it refreshes the memory and starts fresh boot.
    OR
    2. Dry out the battery completely ensure it dies without battery , keep it saftely without charging for a week(7days mandatory) and after a week start charging . This procedure ensure that once the battery is completely dried it will refresh the boot memory and starts with fresh boot . This process is same as the above
    As i donot recommend removing the battery as the procedure is complicated and factory fit is not obtained, you may also end up with loose screws hence i would recommend going with 2nd step , let me know if you have any questions.

  • My ipod wont slide to unlock

    my ipod will not slide to unlock I have tried resetting it, and nothing it still does not work! does any body know how to fix this?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - 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.

    Try connecting the iPhone to iTunes and don't even try to slide to unlock ...just let it bring iTunes App up and then do a Sync.

  • My iphone 4 wont slide to unlock the ios is on 6.1 help

    Help my iphone is stuck on the home screen doest let me unlock it

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).
    Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

  • My ipad wont slide to unlock

    it keeps telling me as a notification that ther is not enought storage. i dont know if that had anything to do with it.

    Try resetting it.  Hold the on/off and home buttons together for about 10 seconds till the Apple logo appears.
    If you can get it to work, immediately go to Settings > General > Usage and free up some space.  Your iPad needs an absolute minimum of 10% of its space free.  For example, if you have a 16GB iPad, you must have at an absolute minimum 1.6GB of free space for iOS to work.

  • Ipad will work when you hit home and then slide the unlock bar - then when you get to the homepage, nothing works - not the home button, it wont rotate, scroll, cant choose icons...nothing.  help!

    Ipad will come on when you hit home and then slide the unlock bar works fine - then when you get to the home page where the icons are, nothing works - not the home button, it wont rotate, scroll, cant choose icons...nothing.  help!

    The home button is the main button off the screen - where is the sleep button?  When I hit home I only see the lock slider (its black) and a button that has a flower on it that pulls up photos we took that are on the ipad.  Thanks for your help!

  • My slide to unlock wont work  help

    my iphone slide to unlock wont work

    TJBUSMC 1973 - I had thought that all of your comments were very sensible but I have has the same problem that deuce78 had. Bought a new iPad 2 just before Christmas, managed to set it up with passcode etc and now everything has frozen. Tried everything within my limited knowledge and was unable to resolve. Phoned Apple helpdesk and a gentleman be told that yes, they would be able to help with a reset as and asked me to wait for a minute or so. When he returned he told me that I would need to pay around £80 for a twelve month software support package. I told him that I do not want this, just an answer to the problem that I was having with a brand new product. He categorically told me (and I am being totally honest here and not exaggerating) that in that case he could not help me. I stressed that it is a brand new iPad and that I had added no apps or software, it had just stopped working on the first day that I tried to use it and that surely if they could talk me through a solution they should do so free of charge. To this there was a straight no, I asked if there were any other options or another number that I could ring, and again was told no.
    So which is the truth that will set us free?
    I am off tomorrow on a 30 mile round trip to the Apple store to get my iPad replaced when it sounds like it could have been sorted over the phone!
