IPhone 3GS Belkin Tunebase multifunction button not working

Hi I have an iPhone 3GS OS 6.0.1 and a Belkin Tunebase. It has been working fine up till I think I upgraded my iPhone. While the music still works the multifunction button has stopped working. This means I cannot receive calls hands free or toggle on and off music except by using the iPhone interface which is dangerous when driving. I tested the tunebase on my friends 3G iphone and it worked so I know the Tunebase is not at fault. Has anyone else had this problem and found a solution? I have cleaned all the dust out of the connection but to no avail
cheers
Bruce

Sorted - although I had cleaned the contact points I obviously hadn't done it properly - lesson learned!

Welcome to the Apple community.
You should update your iPhone software.

hi my iphone 3gs wifi, bluetooth and imei not working

Do you have modified software installed on your device?
If not, try to set it up as new device, explained here, without using the latest backup afterwards, in case it is containing corrupt data.

If this does not help, you'll have to get it serviced, there might be a hardware problem.

My iPhone 3GS bluetooth audio transmission does not work

My iPhone 3GS used to work well with a Motorola H700 headset and the bluetooh in my Lexus. All of a sudden, I could connect with the H700 or the Lexus and place a call but there was no audio received or sent even though the screen in the Lexus said it was being sent/received. I have checked all settings; I have removed and re-setup the iPhone on both devices and to no avail. Is there something I am missing? I know the bluetooth system in the Lexus works because i can connect my Morotola SLVR to it and get audio both ways.
Thanks.

I bought iphone 3gs from japan now its not working in Nepal what do i do now

so what should i be doing do apple help me or should i go with unlocking software if yes how to make the iphone now work in nepal thanks

Hi, you're referring to the menu, right? The first thing on the menu list is the music library with a directional arrow to the right. If I select that, I still get the same message. There's nothing there. I think the problem must be where (or how) I'm saving the songs. I'm saving them but not to the right place? The instruction book just says follow the directions on the screen (but they really aren't that clear.)
Thanks for your help. I want to get this thing working!

IPhone 3Gs & OS4: internet and email not working

Hi all,
I upgraded my 3Gs to OS4 without hassle, and everything is still working, besides some of the apps (which I assume are awaiting updates).
However, my wife had a 3G which she broke and was given a new 3Gs as an insurance replacement. I restored her file from backup I made of her 3G. I then updated firmware to OS4.
Now for some reason it's not accepting the details for the outlook exchange she had setup (work email) and yahoo mail is playing up too. Safari doesn't seem to work with either wifi or 3G.
Is anything I can do to sort this out? I've tried the restore to factory settings,but that doesn't seem to reset the OS on the handset just all the user details.
Any suggestinons appreciated.

called AT&T to check if they have any issue on the 3G data network, then they suggested me to backup the phone and restore as new, it worked for me although it's a long process

IPhone 3G S sleep/lock button not working

ok it doesnt redspond to anything. ive tried all kinds of restarts and restores and nothing works. i am getting a replacement from my retail store but i'm wondering if there is anything i can do to fix it.

Hi Aliassa, I'm having the same problem: no response from my sleep/lock button on my 3G.
I went to the Genius Bar at the Apple Store and they use a little lighted eye scope (like what an ear doctor would use) to look into the headphone port. If the ring down in there is pink (I believe), then they tell you that your iPhone has gotten wet before and then they refuse to help you any further.
This is frustrating as I know why my port's wetness indicator was pink: because I had to clean my headphone port with a touch of windex and a q-tip when my iPhone stopped recognizing that I had unplugged my headphones due to fuzz and crud buildup.
So by fixing that problem, I "voided" whatever help the Apple Store may have given me.
All together that blowz.
I wish I could get normal phone insurance on the iPhone. As far as I know I can't and I'll need to wait till December to get the new iPhone that's subsidized.
Really annoying since, there's no way to reset my phone now other than letting the battery wind down. Also, 'buttons' get hit when I can't wait the minimum of a minute for it to go to the lock screen automatically when I put it in my pocket.
My next step is to try to repair it myself by opening it up and cleaning or replacing the button.
Wish me luck!
If it works I'll post back here.
Good luck to you too.

Hi DJR81, it does indeed sound like the GPS could be out. Try contacting your service provider for a warranty repair.

iPhone stuck on the "connect to iTunes " screen

Hello shravan vj,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPhone. I recommend the following steps for Error 21:
Check for hardware issues
Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the alert when you update or restore, contact Apple support.
Common errors: 1, 10-47, 1002, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1000-1020.
Resolve iOS update and restore errors in iTunes

Iphone 4 volume buttons not working

iphone 4 volume and mute buttons not working, checked all settings they are all fine and when headphones in it works??? When I take out headphones the volum buttons do not work, when phone rings or text receives only vibrates???? HELP!!!!

This could be due to some debris or dirt inside the headphones jack that makes the iPhone think that the headphones are connected even when they are not.
Try to see if you can clean the jack being very careful, with canned air as sold in electronics store. Some people have been successful by introducing and withdrawing the headphones jack several times in a row to displace whatever is in there if it is lodged in.
Avoid introducing anything else like a pointed object. You could damage the jack.
If all of this does not work, I would try first resetting the phone by holding the home button and the power button together for about 15 seconds or until the whilte apple appears, then waiting until the phone resets. If the problem continues after this, take it to an Apple Store to see what they believe should be done.

The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
Restart.. Reset.. Restore from Backup.. Restore as New...
Try a Reset of the Phone... You will Not Lose Any Data...
Turn the Phone Off... ( if it isn’t already )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
The Apple logo will Appear and then Disappear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds...
Release the Buttons...
Turn the Phone On...
If that does not help... See Here:

Iphone 4 Home button not working after upgrade to OS 4.3.5

Iphone 4 Home button not working after upgrade to OS 4.3.5.Please help!!!!!!!!

It seems that settings of mail accounts have something to do with it. I've delete my gmail account and am now using Microsoft Exchange. It seems better, yet not perfect. The issue is definitely due to OS 4.3.1
Apple answer is - no answer. It is a shame that the quality of their products, in terms of design and concept, is not match by a care for customers. It is not normal that I, as a customer, have to spend hours reading Apple Discussions forum to try to understand what the problem is. A little more respect for a customer that spend big $$$ buying their products wouldn't hurt.

Iphone 4: Home Button Not Working. The home button only works when it is connected to iTunes, once i disconnet it does not work, i have tried a restore to factory settings but it still is not working. Any suggestions?

iphone 4: Home Button Not Working. The home button only works when it is connected to iTunes, once i disconnet it does not work, i have tried a restore to factory settings but it still is not working. Any suggestions?

Apple, as I said, does not repair your iPhone. All hardware service issues are handled by replacing the unit. So they can't handle the home-button issue without also addressing the issue of the cracked screen, for which they'll almost certainly charge you. But you can make an appointment at an Apple Store or call Apple tech support and plead your case.

Iphone 4 home button not working, called never fixed, then cracked screen before bringing it back again, will they blame the cracked screen if i bring it back?

I bought an iPhone 4 less than a year ago, then one day the home button randomly stopped working, I bought the warranty so I decided to call in and see what was wrong with it. The girl said that restoring the phone would correct the problem which it did. But it is only a temporary fix, it happens more often now. So I was meaning to call in soon, but the other day my phone fell out of my pocket IN CASE from a foot height and cracked the screen. I nearly threw up. All the years I have had a phone I have never cracked or broken one, strongest screen my ***. Anyway, if I contact them again now will they fix the home button problem? or will they say that the cracked screen is obviously the cause of the home button not working? which it is not!! I don't care about the screen being cracked its not on the actual screen just on the side so its irrelevant to me. Plus I heard it is outrageosly pricey to replace.
