Music buttons not working in lock screen on my iPhone 4 after iOS7 update.

After I updated my iPhone 4 to iOS7, the music buttons like PLAY, REWIND and FORWARD are not working in the locked screen as well as on swipe up menu. Any resolution please?

hi there
i had a problem with my wifes iphone 4s, today morning while travelling to work i changed a setting on repeat option and changed it to repeat artist, it was fine until when i finish my work and on my way back i found songs are not playing anymore, lots of stop signs next to my song list, play/pause button not working, album arkwork keep moving from one to another on its own, so after i reach home i try to do some research on Apple support communities, try to soft reset my phone closing all the apps on background didnt work, also note that control centre music player was not working as well. none of the solutions worked. after trying for two hours i found out that the trouble is in repeat options , so i changed it from repeat artist to repeat off. and the music start playing as usual, but i still have those stop buttons next to the songs i tried to play earlier. At least it fixed temporarily. please also note that in the meantime i tried to sync my phone with the pc and suddenly its start syncing all the songs again assuming there were no songs on my iphone.  so guys i think soft reset might not help all the time but try to remember what settings you changed recently and change it back to the original option, not sure ,but it might help.

  • Music player control buttons not working in locked screen as well as not from the bottom control panel

    Music control like Play, Pause, Fwd etc not working from the bottom swipe up control screen, also not while the phone is locked. Please suggest

    Hi Shanku1337,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If the controls in Control Center are not behaving properly, make sure you've tried all the steps in our iPhone assistant, starting with restarting the device:

  • Camera button not working from locked screen.

    Recently I tried to take a photo from my locked screen. Usually I just double click my home button and the camera pops right up and I can take a picture. This time though, the camera icon does pop up, but when I go to click it the camera icon just "jumps" and will not open the camera option. It's very annoying for when I just want to take a picture, now I have to go through the motion of unlocking my phone and going to the camera. OH, also on the locked screen, the camera icon has two lines, both over and under it.
    How can I fix this, is it in the settings somewhere?

    Touch the camera icon and scroll all the way up. You do not have to double click the home button.

  • E65 Buttons not working, phone locking up.

    So this afternoon all of a sudden I couldn't make any calls, the send and end buttons are making the phone beep but that's about it. Turned it off and on a few times. It worked to make one call then did it again. So then I tried making a call by selecting the name in the phone book and the call option, that didn't work either. I can still send/rec SMS and it connects via wifi. Although now it appears to be locking up completely and has to be turned off and on again. I reset the settings and that didn't help.
    Any other ideas before I take it in?
    Thanks

    Sorry for resurrecting this old post. I replied because I have the same problem as the original poster. I would like to know if the original poster or anyone else has found a fix for this problem. Was Nokia able to fix the problem? In my E65, the 'Back' and 'End call' buttons are not working (keypresses are not recognized by the phone; there's no sound when those buttons are pressed) if the phone is slided open/not retracted. Only those two buttons are not working. The problem does not happen if the phone's keypad is retracted (slided close). Any other E65 owners or other Nokia slider phone owners that have encountered the same problem? I did not drop the phone nor was any physical damage done on the phone. It's been a year since I bought this phone. I just noticed that one day, the phone's 'Back' and 'End Call' button are not working anymore if the phone is not retracted. I already tried turning the phone off, taking the battery out, putting the battery back in and then restarting the phone, but it didn't work. Another thing I would like to ask is: how to backup the notes in a Nokia E65 phone to a Windows PC? I can't find the feature to backup notes in Nokia PC Suite (although there's an option to backup text messages). This is in case, I might need to have my phone repaired.

  • LR3 - Select Music button not working

    Good day,
    I am creating a slideshow in LR3 (3.4.0), Windows XP os, and the button for "Select Music" is not doing anything.  Any ideas?

    Hi,
    I had the same problem yesterday and 1-2 times before.
    As you say the buttons Play/pause and Prev&Next are not working in the Control Center and in the Lockscreen.
    But sometimes/ in most cases they work.
    If you haven't done it yet, please leave a bugreprt at:

    Lets hope Apple will fix this soon...

    Hi Guys,
    This will surely make you all music controls on for Walkman App. (After Android Lollipop Update)
    SETTINGS > SOUND & NOTIFICATIONS > Find & tap WHEN DEVICE IS LOCKED and select Show all notifications menu as you desired. First one will show all in lock screen..!!!
    You're Done

  • Control center and camera not working on lock screen

    On the lock screen my control center or camera sometimes doesn't pull up! Also the touchscreen doesn't work sometimes while just using the phone like when typing or in a game. I've tried resetting it and restarting it! Is this a software bug? Will there be an update To fix this?

    Hi Trevor318,
    Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, the touchscreen does not respond sometimes and control center doesn't come up. I would recommend that you read these articles, they may be helpful in troubleshooting your issue.

  • Drop down notification not working during lock screen

    Hello, I just switched over from the iPhone and I wasn't sure if there was a trick to it. But when I'm in the lock screen and I swipe down nothing happens. My drop down notifications won't work. Is this normal on a Sony phone? I'm using a c6906. Android 4.2.2 and the build number is 14.1.g.2.257
    Does that make a difference or am I missing the trick to do it?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    silly question but what lock screen are you using? Maybe it has to do with a more secure lock screen than the simple swipe... my assumption is that if youre using a pincode, it wont let you swipe down notifications since youve opted for a more secure form of security. 
    Yes ive tested it. if youre using a pin or a pattern it wont let you show the notification pannel Great security imho ;P i anyway dont bother with key locks.. if anyone wants to get at your phone they will.. simple as.. its a deterent sure.. but most folks that bother with phone theft know how to get around it... 
    Hope this solves the issue.
    Don't forget to give Kudos and / or mark the correct answer.

  • Notification center: slide to reply not working from lock screen

    Hi,
    The "slide to reply" feature for messages is not working when the iPhone is locked. My Phone is passphrase protected. When I recieve a message and finger swipe the "slide to reply" (via the notification center) when my phone is locked it asks for the password rather than taking me to the message app directly. Is this the expected behaviour?
    Appreciate any comments/suggestions.

    Your iPhone will always ask for the passcode (if you have one) if it is locked.

  • Notification center and control center only work from lock screen on my iPhone 6

    When I try to swipe down to get notification center or up to get control center from any screen but my lock screen, I can't.  Is there a setting or something that I need to change?

    That is correct. Are you starting from off the screen area itself? You cannot start from on the screen. You need to be just off of the screen to begin. See if that helps. If not, then do a reset on the phone. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot. Check operation after that.

  • Power on button not working on Compaq CQ57-229 WM Notebook after shut down

    My Compaq Presario CQ57-229WM Notebook PC power on/off button is not working properly.  When I shut down computer, the power light stays on.  I have to remove the battery to get the power light to turn off, then it turns back on and i can restart computer.  If i have the battery removed, and just plugged into power strip, i have to remove the power cord to get the light to turn off then to turn back on to restart computer.  the operating system iw Windows Hoem 7-64 bit.

    So you are turning it off with the hardware on-off switch? Go into power options in the control panel and click "choose what the power button does"...what does it say? Generally you want to turn it off with software and by that I mean the Windows key on the keyboard then choose shut down from the popup menu. You may have it set to sleep or  hibernate when you hit the power button.

  • Ipad 2 lock button not working after screen replacement

    I replaced the screen of Ipad2. Afterward, the power button is only working when I turn it on or off, but did not work for locking the screen neither with assistive touch. And another issue is when the divece is rebooted, after the apple logo desepears normally we can see the start screen, but in this case the screen stays black after the apple logo desepears untill I pushed the home button. (IOS 7.1.2)
    Please advise, thanks

    If you replaced the screen through a 3rd party or yourself, you have void all warranty and support.
    If it's a 3rd party or Apple, bring it back.

    Thank you for that update.
    I would next backup your device to iTunes with this article:
    iOS: How to back up and restore your content
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    And restore it first as a new device, and verify that it works properly, then restore from your backup with the same article below to ensure that it is still working.

  • My buttons arent working and my screen is just black and its playing music, help me!!

    my buttons arent working and my screen is just black and its playing music, help me!!

    Hello yung_jvyden,
    So your iPhone is on or it wouldn't be playing music yet you can't seem to "wake it up" as the buttons aren't responding.
    There's a section in this article for buttons not responding.
    If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
    If your device doesn't respond when you press buttons
    Your device might not return to the Home screen when you press the Home button, wake from sleep when you press the Sleep/Wake button, slide to unlock or power off, or it might appear frozen. Try these steps:
    Restart your device.
    If it still doesn't respond, or if it doesn't turn back on, reset your device.
    Note it links to 
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
