  • My middle "Home" button stops working at least once a day! Can I get a replacment?

    I got my iPhone in October of 2010 and for the past 2 months witch it is now June 2011, my middle button stops working for up to 2 hours sometimes and it happens EVERYDAY! It's very annoying and also another problem whenever I recive or am calling someone it makes this horrible buzzing noise and it makes it hard to hear the person(s). I want a replacment because this is annoying and stressfull. Is there anyway I can get a new phone...? Please help!!!

    The basic warranty is for 90 days. If you purchased AppleCare for your phone at the time you bought the phone, that's good for 2 years.
    In either case, call your local Apple Store and make an appointment to take the phone in for a repair. If there's something wrong with it, they'll fix it. You won't pay anything if you purchased the AppleCare. If you're lucky to get an Apple Store employee who is in a good mood, you won't pay even if your phone is not covered by a current warranty.

    Hello Kimbo1991,
    It sounds like your phone is not successfully booting even though you have reset the device. I would next recommend attempting a backup and restore to iTunes with this article:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
    If you are unable to restore with iTunes I would next put the device into recovery mode, and attempt the restore again:
    If you can't update or restore your iOS device

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • I dropped my Iphone in water and the on/off button stopped working, how do I fix it?

    I dropped my phone in some water and it was only in there for about two or three seconds. I grabbed it and dried it straight away and made sure to get in all of it, and it was fine, everything worked. But about an hour after the on/off button stopped working, so i have to use the home button to unlock it and have to wait for the screen to turn off after 1 minute of leaving it. I cant turn it off and dont know how to fix it. Will it go away on its own, do I have to send it off to get fixed? This literally happened like two hours ago, and my phone is a bit more than a year old. Can anyone help me?

    Make an app;ointment at the genius bar and take your credit card. You can get an out of warrnty replacement for an iPhone 4 for $149.
    If you had just done it, the advice would have been to shut it off and put it in a bowl or bag of uncooked rice or silica gel for a week.  Unfortunately, since it's been powered on for several hours, since then, it may have been permanently damaged. You can try the rice trick, but be prepared to pay for a replacement at some point down the road.

    It's still covered by Apple's 1 year warranty. Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

  • So i just got my ipod august 2012. about 1 month ago, my home button stopped working and my ipod is getting slower and slower. would apple be able to fix it for free?

    Ipods automatically have a one year warrany unless you have violated the terms. But you can pay to extend the warranty. It depends, they may fix it for free or they may charge a bit. Im not entirely sure. But id say theres a good chance that they may fix it for free. With battery replacements, ive heard that they give you an entirely new ipod with a charge of $80. So i think it depends

  • My back button stopped working, so how to fix it?

    The back button stopped working. I can still use the keyboard substitute though. I have tried deleting places.sqlite and resetting some of the settings people suggested in config:about. Nothing has worked.

    You can try a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before reinstalling a fresh copy of Firefox.
    *C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Installation_directory
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    *Firefox 17.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
    *Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you will also lose your personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    *It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
    If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

  • My top button stopped working, the physical button is broken.

    My top button stopped working, the physical button is broken. Apple genius' stated they will not fix my phone because there are signs of moisture in my phone. What does that have to do with my broken button, and why can't my phone functioning the way it is supposed to due to an issue that is not my fault?

    wow i dont know who you are getting your phone "fixed" through but its not apple.
    Apple does not charge prices like that.
    If you got it 1 year ago in september, the hardware warranty has expired by now unless you had your device covered by applecare insurance.
    and if it WERE covered by limited hardware warranty, an obvious hardware issue like the power button not working is covered under the warranty UNLESS it was due to accidental damage.
    So if you paid 198 dollars, chances are its because you dropped your phone and thats why the button was not working,.
    ..and even then, the iphone 4 out of warranty/accidental damage replacement fee is 149. not 198.

  • Hello i have a imac 8.1 and my volume down button stopped working..

    hello i have a imac 8.1 and the volume down button stop working..
    basically it seems that the f11 button is dead cause i can't make shortcut to this button anymore..
    i had the maverick osx and i install some vst for ableton before that happend but i make format the disk and clean install the osx lion and it doesn't fix the problem.. any help ??

    Very simple take it to an Apple Store or AASP and have it professionally diagnosed. Anything else would be guessing. Do NOT spend a penny on it until it is professionaly diagnosed otherwise you stand and excellent chance of throwing good money after bad.

  • My home button stop working. what to do?

    Hello,
    i have an ipad2. Suddenly, the home button stop working. Someone could help me please?

    This requires the use of the home button, but try it anyway.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    If that doesn't work, try this. Calibrate the home button
    1. Open a stock iOS app, such as Contacts
    2. Press & hold the sleep/wake button at the top of your device until the red slider control appears.
    3. Immediately release the sleep/wake button and press & hold the home button. Hold until the red slider disappears.

  • Why did add a new tab button stop working ? it doesn't work any more

    Firefox was normal until the add new tab button stopped working I tried to find out why that happened but I couldn’t I tried fixing it , uninstalling it then installing it and other things but nothing seems to work '''please I need help'''

    This is normally caused by the Ask toolbar, uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened.
    There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
    * Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
    * Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons

  • Miro's power button stopped working

    Suddenly my phone's power button stopped working. I can't lock/unlock the phone nor turn it off :/ Tried to take a screen shot, to restart the device but nothing happened. I dropped the phone only once or twice before months, it hasn't been in touch with water and such. Now I almost can't use my phone unless when I put the phone on charger Did anyone have the same problem? What should I do?

    Haven't heard of this before actually. I would recommend that you send this phone to a service center for repair.
