IPad Mini with Retina Display's Volume Down button sticks, have to press really hard to make it unstick and then decrease volume level. Anyone else seeing this issue?

When trying to press the physical down volume button on my iPad mini with Retina Display, it sticks making you have to press really hard before it unsticks then allows you to decrease the volume level. Not sure if this is a common issue and not sure if its worth a genius appointment but it does seem to be getting worse. Anyone having this issue or know a fix? Thanks

Thanks for letting me know, I will have AppleCare arrange a replacement rather than getting a new retail box. I find the replacements are usually better quality when it is a new product. The AppleCare team said they wouldn't be sending a refurbished/repaired handset this early which gives me some confidence.
My home button does feel different and definatley sounds different but from what people have said this is normal. Someone posted a video of their and it was the same as mine so I'm not concerned.

Ok so when I try pressing the home button on the iPod it doesn't work.. and I have to press really hard on the home button to make the iPod go back to the homescreen. Is this a defect in the iPod because I have never dropped my iPod on the floor or anythi

Wat should I do?
Send it to apple?

Try each of the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iPod:
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
- Restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPOd.
If still a problem you likely have a hardware problem. An appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store would be in order. If the iPod is within warranty you can call AppleCare.

Why does my home button keep sticking. I have to press it 4 or 5 times for it to take me from an app back to the home page

My home button keeps sticking. I have to press it about 4 or 5 times to move from an app back to home page. Very frustrating when I want to change apps in a hurry. I have had the phone for just over a year without any problems. This started about three weeks ago. is there anything i can do or must I take the phone back to the supplier?

This is usually caused by gunk building up in and around the button.

Screen changing button needs to be pressed really hard just started any suggestions why

This just started happening, before it was a easy touch, am I wearing out and need repair?

Do you mean the Home button (button at the bottom of the iPad screen)? Its possible.
Pretty unlikely to be a software isue, but just in case, try a rest: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the iPad shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the iPad back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.
But in all likelihood, its a hardware issue.

I have to press hard for the zen micro to resp

Me and my brother both have a zen micro and on mine i have to press realy hard for it to do anything and my brothers is nothing like this even though we have the same sensitivity setting. Thanks in advanceMike

It's almost definatly a faulty player. Try a firmware update. Go into rescue mode by removing the battery and while replacing the battery holding the power switch in the on position. From there select Reload Firmware via USB. Be sure to download the firmware from the Creative site and I'd suggest using v.0.03.
If this doesn't resolve the issues than contact Creative Support or go back to the store for a return/replacement. The touchpad doesn't rely on pressure per se for movement detection so pressing really hard on the pad isn't something that is normal.

The home button on my iPad has became faulty, it works sometimes although you have to press it really hard. Can Apple fix this for me?

The home button on my iPad has became faulty, it works sometimes although you have to press it really hard. Can Apple fix this for me?

They might be able to. If it's an iPad 2 then it is still within the warranty period, so as long as it's due to accidental damage it might be fixed/replaced free of charge. Have you tried contacting Apple ? I don't know what country you are in, and whether you are near an Apple store, but you could try looking on this page for your service options.
Before you do that you could try a reset and see if it that helps : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons (assuming that it works) for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

There is a possibility that your digitizer has malfunctioned. I had a similar problem on my iphone 3gs whereas the lower left part of my screen didnt respond to touch at all. Take your phone to an Apple store and have them fix it for you. I fixed my iphone 3gs' digitizer by replacing it myself because my phone was out of warranty, and there arent any Apple stores nearby. But you should definitely take your phone to Apple store and let them fix it for you, because in order to replace digitizer on iphone 4, you really need to be skillful when it comes to phone repairs,and attemting any repairs yourself voids your warranty. Hope I helped. Cheers mate

HT1338 My 'C' key has stopped working unless I press it really hard. Does anyone know why please?

I have a macbook but the c key only works when I press on it really hard. Does anyone know how to mend this problem? I've tyried switching the laptop off but it hasn't worked.

Bubble membrane keyboards tend to wear out, use a external "clicky clack" IBM type keyboard with a nice 6 foot cable.
These sort of keyboards last decades of heavy pounding because the key itself is designed to stop by hitting the frame before any damage occurs.
Thing about using the extenral KB is that one takes the wear and tear of the weak bubble keyboards, also improves resale value.
DAS has a nice Mac style external keyboard.

Hi, I have a question about iCloud. I have an ipod 4th generation and im getting a 5th generation. i have lots of games such as subway surfers and temple run 2. I worked and played really hard on earning stuff and have also made in app purchases. Does iCloud save that kind of stuff?

However, not all in-app purchases will transfer to another device. For which ones ill not see:

Have to click real hard on trackpad

my trackpad on my macbook pro isnt click as usual ever since i dropped it..... you now have to click reallllllyyyyy hard and longer for it to click and respond. what should i do??

Since you likley damaged your very sensitive trackpad, the only remedy that you have, as I see it, is to take the machine into your local Apple Store or an AASP and have them repair the damage. I don't know of anything that you can do yourself...

Take it to an Apple Store and have them take a look. Make a Genius bar appointment.

I have just upgraded my iphone to iOS7, I use reading glasses and now it's really hard to see anything, thin, pale gray font, an overall lack of visual definition, surely this is a downgrade?

I have just upgraded my iphone to iOS7, I use reading glasses and now it's really hard to see anything, thin, pale gray font, an overall lack of visual definition, surely this is a downgrade? Built-in apps and their icons now look awful, why was it necessary to fix something that wasn't broken? Just to keep web designers busy?

Go into your settings and you can adjust the text and the contrast on your phone.
I wear bifocals and I'm not having an issue and my eyes appreciate the reduction of clutter.

Have a macbook with the old fashioned trackpad. Sometimes when I am typing, it seems like someone clicks my trackpad. I have set my macbook up to where you have to press the trackpad button instead of just tap the track pad. Any ideas?

Sometimes during the "old-fashion" macbooks there is different feelings in the way you control it. Take it to the apple store and I am Pretty sure they can tell you what is going on and if it is "Time for a Upgrade".
