If you haven't turned the main back on, this could cause the sound.
Re supply the water to the lines.

Getting hot water when shower valve is first opened.

If I understand correctly, you have single handled shower faucet.
Normally there is a wait for hot water to arrive at faucet.
But now hot water is already at shower faucet.

Single handled faucets have a mixing area inside valve where hot and cold come together before going into sink.
This mixing valve can have crossover where the hot and cold can pass through to each other even when faucet handle is off. When single handle faucets get old, this can happen.
How it happens:
For example another faucet is turned on inside house, and pressure differential between hot and cold causes hot water at shower handle to pass through mixing area and into cold water line.
So if another faucet has been run, then that lets hot flow to faulty single handled shower faucet.
To confirm this is the problem: turn on other faucet and put ear against shower faucet to listen for moving water.
This condition may also signal there is a water leak.
The problem is not harmful, but will draw cold water into water heater each time, and is energy wasteful.
Replace faucet or have plumber repair problem.

I have a single handle Danze shower. I can't turn on the water. The handle just turns all the way around.

sounds like handle is not engaged....pull handle...may need allen wrench...after handle is off see if you can turn water on with pliers...should go from right to left...if that works...install handle and tighten with allen wrench....handle should set from off area...see if handle is stripped out or not on proper...if need new handle...pick up at lowes or plumbing supply...good luck

Turning on hot or cold water I get a loud screeching noise and very low pressure. If I keep turning the handle, I can get rid of the noise, but still low pressure.

It sound like you have sediment blocking your valve, faucet airiator or shower head (depending on what you're using). FYI: if it turns out to be defective all Moen faucets and showers have a life time warantee.

Screeching sound only when trying to record using LiveCam! and my

Sounds like you have another microphone connect at the same time as your camera mike and it is causing the feed back.
Or the second thing that could cause the feed back is that you have your speaker volume turned up to high.
Hope this is of some help. Bud

Turns on then gives a High pitched Screech then shuts down even after totally unplugging it and reconnecting it blinks on then Screeches then turns off rinse repeat

are you talking about just the monitor of the computer as a whole? if you are talking about the computer then, there is something loose inside the case, which is causing the high pitched sound.

High pitched screeching/broken handle release

For the handle problem, detent lever part #2030052 and costs $4 to $5. A bearing in the motor is what is making it sound bad, part #2032211 and will cost around $60. You could try bissell.com or call them. They can at least let you know who has Bissell parts near you.
