Hold Button Doesn't Work for Random Periods of Time

Over the past few months I have been having massive issues with my ipod.
It all started about 4 months ago when the hold function, without me turning it on with the switch, began to turn itself on. This would happen at random periods, for random periods. Sometimes it goes on for a couple of hours, sometimes for a couple of seconds. When the ipod began to get this problem I had been using it consistently for about a year.
Resetting it does not help - I have tried it countless times. I have noticed it tends to do it more when the battery is not full, but it still has issues when it is. I tried restoring it last night to no avail - it didn't fix the problem.
My warranty has expired so I don't wish to waste my time and money sending it to apple if it is a simple issue.
Does anyone know what's causing the problem? Anyone have a DIY solution?
Thanks in advance and happy easter.

i used my ipod for a while. and yesterday it was on low battery, very low.
and the HOLD button, doesnt worked!
i charged my ipod but the hold button never work again!!
i reset it with the soft and with the buttons, but nothing!
who can fix it in argentina??
thanks.

  • HOLD BUTTON DOESN'T WORK AND IT'S STUCK ON HOLD!!!!!

    I thought I had broken my ipod because I could not turn it on, but then when I plugged it into the charger it turned on. I then realised that the hold button did not work and it was stuck on hold so I could not take it off hold to use it. Does anybody know a way of solving this problem???

    b Does the computer recognize it?
    yes
    No, it does not. That is why iTunes does not recognize it.
    The iPod turns on when you plug it in because it is getting power from the cable. This does not mean the computer recognizes it.
    Read the link posted above (and the related documents at the bottom of the link)

  • The back button doesn't work for some websites after downloading version 4.0

    I recently downloaded firefox version 4.0. Upon downloading it I had a few issues occur with my browser. One issue was that all of my bookmarks that were on my toolbar disappeared. Also, when I visit a website and am browsing through it, if I want to go back to a previous page the back button doesn't work properly. Instead of sending me back to the previous page I was viewing it sends me all the way back to the home page or wherever I started on that website. This problem basically affects all websites that I visit. I would like to uninstall the new version of firefox and just go back to my old one if that's possible? Thanks

    To respond to your comments first of all, the Bookmarks toolbar has been removed in Firefox 4.0
    The back button should work as it normally does, but you can also right click it and select it from the list.
    To revert to a previous version of Firefox, download v3.6.16 from here: [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html Download Firefox v3.6.16]
    Then uninstall Mozilla Firefox 4.0 choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc.
    Finally run the Firefox installation file you downloaded earlier.

  • Hold button doesn't work

    I have an almost 1 year old 5th generation iPod.
    When I move the hold button so the iPod will be on hold, the wheel doesn't lock nor does the lock appear on the iPod. This happens irregularly. So I might be using my iPod one day and the hold button works, and then an hour later it doesn't. But now it's not working at all.
    I always try restarting the iPod but nothing happens.

    I'VE FIXED IT!
    IMine has been locked for 2 days... I researched the nnet for Hacks and other things and finally found some other folk with the same problem. After trying the press 'the side till it clicks' trick, (didn't work... no click) I kept experimenting with various firm but gentle presses... on side, back, etc etc... In the end this is what I did to unlock it...
    * Place "Locked in Hold" iPod on it's edge on a firm desk.
    * Glently but firmly press down on the edge with the palm of my hand, squeezing the unit against a desk...
    * and at the same time, stroke the touch wheel...
    * When (if?) the backlight comes on the iPod starts to respond to the touch wheel...
    * and while still pressing firmly, move the hold switch from On to Off!
    Take care not to slip and slam your unit onto the desk, or do anything that could physically break anything inside, or crack the screen, etc.
    I recommend you avoid anything to do with screwdrivers

  • The browser's back button doesn't work for portlet navigation

    I developed a simple portlet that uses webflow navigation to navigate within a
    portlet. I made this portlet visible on a portal's home page. When I view my
    main portal page, the URL is "http://localhost:7501/samplePortal/index.jsp "
    In this page I can see my portlet. When I click on a link inside of the portlet,
    it takes me to the page I want. Then, when I click the browser's back button
    to go back to the previous page(main portal page), it doesn't work. The URL changes
    back to "http://localhost:7501/samplePortal/index.jsp", but portlet itself doesn't
    take me to the previous page. Anybody have any ideas? I am guessing it's because
    the wfevent is null, but how do I resolve this problem?

    Hi Jay,
    I was able to get the back button to work for portals by commenting out the following
    lines in the portal.jsp:
    // prevent caching these pages at clients.
    // response.setHeader("Cache-Control", "no-cache"); // HTTP 1.1
    // response.setHeader("Pragma", "no-cache"); // HTTP 1.0
    // response.setDateHeader("Expires", 0); // prevents caching at proxy
    I also made sure my browser was set to allow the caching of pages.
    You are having problems, because we set the response headers to tell the browser
    to not cache the portal pages, and the portlet state has not changed back to it's
    original state.

  • The macbook pro keyboard media buttons doesn't work for itunes

    hi,
    since i installed the snow leopard the buttons doesn't control (play, stop, forward...) the itunes.

    Hey ARM77,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    There is a few things I will suggest to hopefully fix this issue for you.
    1. Is mass storage mode currently enabled when you hook your BlackBerry to the Mac?  If not please read KB13564.
    2. Is your iTunes updated to the very latest version?
    3. Verify that your media card has a sufficient amount of memory available for the playlists. To check this, perform the following:
    In BlackBerry® Desktop Manager, click Device Options. On the Media tab, decrease the amount of memory that is kept free for files other than your music files.
    than your music files.

    Just purchased a waterproof nano shuffle. Works great until the middle button stopped working. Is it the nano or something I am doing worng???

    Try:

    Ignore the reset and when it says place the iPod in recovery mode
    Place the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs:

    If necessary:
    Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot

    - 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 another cable              
    - 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.

    Can anyone tell me why is this happening, need to fix this urgently.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    I removed all the export code, now when the Page loads. When I click on the export/print button still nothing happens.
    "Error in File C:\DOCUME1\rpatel\LOCALS1\Temp\DailyTransaction {0CE72E59-0AF6-4859-9173-EF563869CBBF}.rpt: Invalid export DLL or export format. "
    My code:
    ReportDocument cr = new ReportDocument();
    DataTable dt = new DataTable();
    string strReportPath = string.Empty;
    cr.SetDataSource(dt);
    cr.Load(strReportPath);
    string Fname;
            if (!System.IO.File.Exists(strReportPath))
                throw (new Exception("Unable to locate report file:\n" + strReportPath));
    CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = cr;
    Fname = Request.PhysicalApplicationPath.ToString() + Session.SessionID.ToString() + ".rpt";
    cr.Export();
    The sample has Delphi example, it would be good if there is a C#/VB sample available.
    Thanks.

  • How to get itunes downloaded on my computer. The Download button doesn't work for me.

    I seem to be unable to download the latest version of itunes. What can I do to fix this?

    I've been trying to organize all my music, making
    sure artist and album are filled in, everything
    spelled correctly. I'm not able to change some
    things because iTunes can't locate the file on my
    computer. So is there a way for iTunes to search my
    entire computer for every music file and import
    everything it finds? This would make my life so much
    easier since I have music scattered all over in
    places I can't even remember.
    Under Advanced menu click on Consolidate library...
    I'm trying to add album artwork as well. How come
    some say "Album Artwork Not Modifiable"?
    Is there a way to make it so if I delete a song from
    iTunes, it goes to the Recycle Bin? I have a lot of
    duplicates. I don't want them taking up space on my
    computer.
    IF you delete it from Music (eg library) it goes to recycle bin (iTunes asks you if you want this...). YOu still have to empty the Recyle Bin to have it be totally gone.

  • The add-on manager's menu button doesn't work for me.

    Try pressing it in the Firefox menu, no dice. Going into Options, and finding 'manage add-ons' in there works, but opens a new window. I usually drag the only tab of this new window into the existing window to work, but the issue stands.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • Form_URN doesn't work for the first few times on android, and doesn't work completely on iphone.

    Dear All,
    I used approval workflow in my workflow and modified the content in the email sent by system to users. I used hyperlink to setup a clickable letter to Current Task : Form_URN.  (everything under workflow 2010 and SP 2013 online )
    After that, I initiated some new items in the list and the email got sent to users. On android phone, I was able to click on the link created by current task: Form_URN and it leads me to log in, after I log in it leads me to a black website of my sharepoint
    site. I noticed the URL is correct (which means if I use the url on my computer, it will lead me to the place I want it to be, which is the approve or reject the workflow)  after a few times of sending request, suddenly it worked on my android phone.
    (no idea what happened).  But then I did the same test on iphone, it kept leading me to the blank site, and never worked in the end, the link is still correct. Is it a browser thing? Is it possible to fix it?
    Thanks

  • I have recently noticed that my MacBook Pro Retina keeps freezing.  I first noticed that the track pad would not work for short periods of time.  Is anyone else having a problem?

    My MacBook Pro Retina keeps freezing up.  It seems that it is happening more often as time goes on. 
    I first noticed that the track pad would freeze then whole computer would completly freeze.
    Most annoying.
    Is anyone else having a similar problem?

    Hey B-bram,
    For issues with video resolution not being consistent, I would start with resetting the NVRAM on your MacBook Pro. That will reset the resolution to its default as well as resetting other default settings like sound volume and start up volume. Take a look at the article below for more information about that and how to perform the NVRAM reset.
