Apple Ipod 4th gen power button stuck

hopefully someone will help me out. My ipod power button is stuck and i have no idea how to get it unstuck anyway that i can? or do i have to get it replaced?

There isn't anything a user can do to unstick the button that will not void a warranty or any support from the Apple techs.  Best thing to do is take it to an Apple store genius bar and have the techs check it out and see what they say to do.

  • IPod 4th Gen power button broken, game center and some apps won't load.

    iPod 4th generation, iOS 6.1.6, power button is broken (will not click at all, I can't let my iPod run out of battery because I won't be able to turn it back on).
    Game center, and some of my apps will not load.
    I also have issues with apps and Safari crashing, but that isn't a major problem.
    For the apps not loading, I've tried deleting them, and then reinstalling them, but it didn't work.
    Is there anything I can do about this?

    To reset the iPod without the hardware buttons,
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings. All your wifi and bluetooth preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected. You will have to rejoin wifi networks and repair BT devices
    For Safari problem try going to Settings>Safari and Clear Cookies<data and History.
    To turn on an iPod without a Power button just connect the iPod to a charging source

    Have you tried the standard fixes:
    - Reset:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore the iPod from backup via iTunes
    - Restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod.
    If still problem you likely have a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genus Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • IPod 4th gen power problems

    My Ipod touch 4th gen can't turn on! I've tried pressing the home and power button for 10 seconds and that seemed to work, but than my ipod switched to spinning around in a little circle on the screen and it's been like this for 2 days. Can anyone help? I also jailbroke my ipod.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • IPod Touch 4G Power Button Stuck/Spring Broken?

    in other post i accidently said the home button was broken, but it's the home button sorry, for real it's the power button so ima correct it now . However i can't lock my ipod and even power it off is it broken or it's stuck i'm using Assistive Touch will Apple replace it (I Have No Warrenty Though)?

    - If Apple can't easily fix it (unjam), they will exchange it for a refurbished one for this price. I would make an appointment at their Genius Bar of an Apple store and hear what they have to say.

  • My IPOD Nano7th Gen power button is stuck I guess. It turns on and off whenever it wants to

    My IPOD Nano 16gig 7th Gen has decided to turn on and off whenever it chooses. You can power the whole thing down and it will turn back on and then maybe back off.  I can be playing music and it will just shut down and restart. I have wiped it and reset it to factory settings. I have nevr dropped it or dunked it in water or any other liquid. I actually only had 50 songs and an audiobook on there, nothing else.  Any help please?

    Hello there ELMREM,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    I was researching the issue you are describing and want to suggest the troubleshooting outlined in the iPod Troubleshoooting Assistant found here http://www.apple.com/support/ipodnano/assistant/itunes/.
    You may have done some of the steps outlined in it already, but I still would recommend doing the troubleshooting 1 step at a time from the top down.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • My ipod nano's power button is stuck?! What should I do?1

    I got my ipod nano 6th generation for christmas. It's been working fine the past months I had it but then suddenly this morning, I found the power button stuck! :/ What should I do?!?!?!

    Schedule an appointment at your local Apple Store/Genius Bar and see if there is anything they can do to help. If they find that the problem is not the result of abuse, they should replace it under the 1 year warranty against manufacturing defects.
