HT5957 Controlling music apps in lock screen doesn't work in ios7.02?

After applying the second update to ios7, none if my music apps function in the lock screen.  No stopping music from any app including the Apple music app in the lock screen.  This means that Bluetooth controllers such as car stereo systems can't control next track, pause or stop on any music app being accessed since the screen is generally locked while driving.  This is dangerous because the only way to control these apps - while driving - is to unlock the phone.  Apparently my phone is now more secure, but I guess that means it securely doesn't work in lock screen.

Try A and B
(A) Restart iPad
1. Hold down the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears.
2. Drag the slider to turn off iPad.
3. Turn iPad back on, hold down the Sleep/Wake until the Apple logo appears
(B) Reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: Data will not be affected.

  • Music buttons on the lock screen no longer work with ios7.

    on my 4S, when ios 7 was loaded, bluetooth music play buttons and the music buttons on the lock screen no longer work.  Hence, I can neither use the music buttons at the lock screen nor can I use the control on my car (bluetooth...) to change songs.  Volume adjust at the lock screen appears to work.  Can't pause/play or move to the next/prior music.

    I did see a reply on a similar post:
    You can try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    However, some onther users have reported the same problem so it it may be a bug in iOS
    I did the RESET DEVICE only to mine (i.e., did not reset all settings...) and it did work to fix the buttons (haven't tested on the car, but it'll likely be OK now...).  Certainly there is a bug somewhere that needs fixed...

  • IPhone 6 - Camera from Lock Screen doesn't Work

    Hi everybody, how are you ?
    I've got a problem with my iPhone 6 64Gb (Same problem before with my iPhone 5, so that's strange and i think the problem is since the new iOS 8.x)
    On the lock screen, if i try to open the camera, calculator, lamp, from Control Center, i've got a black screen or my wallpaper...
    So i must to open the iPhone and start the camera...
    If i restart the device, it's working but i don't want to do that every day !
    Does anybody has the same problem or not ? Do you have a solution please ?
    Device : iPhone 6 64Gb
    iOS : 8.1.1 (12B436)
    Many thanks

    Hi,
    I haven't got the same problem but I think to solve your problem is that you have to enable Assistive Touch and then try it (If that does't work, you might have to take it to the apple shop)
    To enable assistive touch, follow the steps below,
    •Go to settings
    •Go to General
    •Go to Accessibility
    •Scroll to the very bottom and find "AssistiveTouch"
    •Click it
    •Turn it on
    Hopefully that works but if it does't like I said above, you might need to go to your local apple store and get them to try and fix it.

  • IPad Air - swipe to read mail from lock screen doesn't work

    Bought an iPad Air and have a small problem. When I try to swipe to read mail from lock screen, it won't go directly to the mail app itself.  Can anyone help or tell me what the problem is??

    when returning to the control centre from the lock screen after a few minutes listening to music it works fine i.e. the track you were listening to appeas there
    my issue is that if you return to the control centre after not listening to music say for a few hours or overnight it does no return to the track you were listening to and decidess for itself that its in shuffle mode. very frustrating
    is this correct or is this in the settings

    You can try the standard fixes:

  • After update iOS 5.1 iPhone 4 camera on lock screen doesn't open the app

    After update iOS 5.1 iPhone 4 camera on lock screen doesn't open the app

    Tonebox,
    I couldn't get my camera to work smoothly
    the 1st ten times,or so,I tried to open it.
    As it turns out,it isn't as pressure sensitive as I have
    grown accustomed to, and required a gesture that feels
    rather awkward, by comparison to the ones I have been using.

  • Music Playback from Lock Screen

    Something that was noticed on my 3GS after the initial iOS 5 update that I wanted to see if anyone else has seen, or knows what may be causing it
    Started the music app, locked my iPhone and then skipped a song using the lock screen controls
    Every time the lock screen controls are used to skip a song or restart one, there is a noticible "blip" in the audio, as if the phone has issues reading the music
    I've completely reset my phone to factory settings and re-synced, and it never did this on iOS 4, so its definitely something related to the update
    I updated to iOS 5.0.1 today to see if it was one of the bugs fixed in that batch
    Any help or thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated
    UPDATE: iOS 5.0.1 - issue still exists, payed a bit closer attention to the phone's behavior in the lock screen
    Happens when the lock screen controls time-out, so its definitely tied to that end of the software

    The music player is only on the lockscreen when you double-tap the home button.  Another double-tap removes it.

  • Can't play music from the lock screen.

    Has anyone else notice this problem, since I updated up ISO 7.0.2 I cant control the music from the lock screen.

  • My screen if frozen and I can't shut off my phone. I already have my assistiave touch button on my screen but it still own't let me shut off my phone. And my lock button doesn't work either

    My screen is frozen on the camera and my phone won't let me shut it off. My lock button doesn't work and my assistance touch button won't let me shut it down either. My phone also takes hours to die and my battery if fully charged so i can't wait for it to die i need to get it back to normal asap! How do I get it to unfreeze?

    A reset is when you press and hold both the home and sleep buttons for 10 seconds or so until the Apple logo appears. You won't lose any data. Give it a try.

  • I cant open apps on my iPhone 4 the touch screen doesn't work.  I have restored my phone and still nothing works.

    I can't open apps on my iPhone.  The touch screen doesn't work.  I have restored it already but it still won't work.  What can I do.

    If the touch screen is not having any response then you probably have a hardware failure. Take your phone to an Apple Store or authorised service provider to have it checked.

  • I can't use the control center from my lock screen.

    I just updated my iPhone 5c to the ios 8.0.2, but previous to that update I was able to use the control center from my lockscreen. But now, I can't. I already tried to disable restrictions and it didn't work. Please help.

    Check the settings for this And make sure that the availability of the Control Center from the Lock Screen is turned on.
    Settings > Control Center > Access on Lock Screen
    If it is turned on there try a reset of your iPhone. Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button continuously until the Apple logo appears. Then release the button and let the device restart. You will not lose data doing this. It's like a computer reboot.

  • I'm experiencing extremely slow response when attempting to open the control center from the lock screen, any suggestions?

    When trying to access the control center from the lock screen, it takes anywhere from 2 to MANY swipes to get a response.  Never opens on the first try.

    I'm not having the same problem, but there is a feature in the OS that attempts to discern from swipes to unlock and swipes to open control center. This is what you may be experiencing.

  • No reverse seek on music player during locked screen

    I noticed that there is no reverse seek << on music player on locked screen, it only displayed the forward seek >>. This shouldn't happened because in Kitkat all is complete forward or rewind. Sony pls fix this bug.

    It is indeed gone, have you checked this out?

The phone can receive calls (not answer) & the pictures & messages can be seen but the touch screen doesn't work to unlock the phone or select anything. We want to save/transfer pictures, contacts, and music to the replacement phone.

    Try backing it up to your computer with iTunes.  Connect it to your computer, open iTunes, click on the name of the phone in iTunes, go to the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings and click Back Up Now.  Also go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases to transfer you apps and other purchased media to your iTunes library.
