yaaahh .. both of us having a ipad with matte screen protective ...

having problem with her finger on ipad screen command .. !!!!

every each time when she try to touch the screen for command in video play .. nothing seems to work but when i touch it .. no problem ( ON BOTH SET )

any lady ipad user care to comment ... !!!

could it be men finger skin is thicker then the lady finger skin ... !!!


oooooohhh .. yes .. i had tried to ask my GF to try to press the screen with all her finger ( left and right side ) .. still does not seems to work ...

even to the extend of using her thumb .. also .. not working ..!!!

With all due respect, I cannot help but laugh at this situation..

*clears throat* Okay, jokes aside.

Did she apply enough pressure, even a slight pressure on the screen? And how much pressure did you apply to make it work?

I'm personally using a matte screen protector (Cygnett) and I barely have to touch the iPad for it to respond.

. yaaaahhh .. it is also very funny for me ... !!! I kept telling her that Ipad is a very high tech gadget .. and tell her to be more patience ...

but until she beh tahan ... !.. ( i also beh tahan cos .. don't what the reason behind all this .. this is why i post the topic looh ....

so .. ladies out there with ipad .. do you have this sort of problem ....!!!!

Show it to Machines =p

Ask her not to use finger nail lah...

i think her ipad got hantu stay inside...perhaps is a female hantu, tat y got respond to GUY but nt GAL!

ok, joke is enough. possible is her finger nail???

hand lotion overloaded ?

She press by finger or fingernail?

I'm guessing nails~

i have no problem with the screen even though i have a protective screen cover too.

it's not whether she applied pressure, cause the ipad is not pressure-sensitive, but conductive - any part of your skin touching it will have an effect.....unless your gf is a ghost , or she has very long fingernails.

i have heard some ppl say that different ppl's skin have different levels of conductivity.....but not sure whether there's any scientific proof.

Cut.her.fingernails! Period. XD

Maybe her finger not good interm of conducting electricity, becoz ipad screen is capasitive not resistive.

My daughter and my wife has got no problem using ipad with their fingers.

Agreed with others. Think its the nail problem.

hehe...are u sure it an Ipad ?
no Csl tablet or what else..?hehe

The screen based on heat in our finger...
Your friend is cold like an ice?

most women have a long nail including my gf. Normally women have a long nail have a hard time to get to use with this touch screen. Cut her nail. Otherwise, your gf might be a ghost. Hehe..

It's capacitive touch u need apply some light pressure on it. Finger nails won't work.u need get csl unit for that

iPad uses capacitive touch like what many have mentioned here. Basically it is zero-pressure required and works with human body that acts like a conductor.
So, there's no point applying pressure on the screen with nails.

Ask your gf to touch open wire, if she still ok then confirm la your gf is non conductive. Superwoman maybe. Hehehehe.

Even she got long fingernail its ok;

Solution A: Stylus Pen (any type one as long won't scratch your protective screen, try the pen before purchase one)

Solution B: Cut her fingernail, LoL (not sure she want or not)

Solution C: Change iPad to Galaxy Tab (hahaha)

That's all " Wink "

i have no problem with the touching anywhere of the screen. lol
of course, a capacitive touch only works when you point with finger, not the nail.
I keep my finger nails short for that purpose.
hope that helps.

I'm a girl and I have no problem with touching the ipad screen too!
That's so strange, maybe you can ask other female friends to try it?

No problem for my gf to touch too.. Perhaps try to touch on several units and see?

Dear TS,
Kinda funny though. lol!
I brought an ipad for my wife, so far it's work fine for her (eventhough its under utilised, all the while were left aside.. not use)

Technically, (correct me). ipad touch screen based on capacitive-type, human body mainly act as conductor, touching screen will cause electrostatic distubance hence signaling/triggered the point

I dunno if she 'ESD/anti-static' protected.. but normally can la, try simulate & see.

Touch it dude, touch it. Not poke it with fingernail. I bet its the fingernail's problem coz girls tend to have long nails.
