Replace the phone. Unless it is an iPhone 5; Apple will replace the button even if out of warranty. Call Apple support.

  • How to fix music buttons on lock screen?

    Updated my iPhone 5 to iOS7.2 and music buttons (skip forward/backward, play/pause/stop) do not work; volume still works. Is there a way to fix this??

    I did see a reply on a similar post:
    You can try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    However, some onther users have reported the same problem so it it may be a bug in iOS
    I did the RESET DEVICE only to mine (i.e., did not reset all settings...) and it did work to fix the buttons (haven't tested on the car, but it'll likely be OK now...).  Certainly there is a bug somewhere that needs fixed...

  • How to fixed locked disk and written permission

    Who has an idea how to fixed itunes folder locked disk and written permission.

    Hi Tony T1
    I believe I have the same problem? This external disk I'm locked out from contains my Time Machine backups
    At this point, I'm not 100% sure what's going on? - as I've been battling this off/on for a good while! 
    Besides my flailing, I tried:
    accessing as a network disk, using another machine w/ Lion and Mountain Lion, calling Apple's tech support, visiting the local Apple Store, Running Disk Warrior, startup with "option" a few million times.  Also startup with /cmd + r/ .  Its been so long I can't remember : Oh, login as root didn't get me very far?
    I tried the fix you described, and was able to remove the recovery partition from the external USB.
    As per Robert's post, since I was still locked, I repartitioned the external HD  -- yet the repartitioning failed?
    "Couldn't modify partition map because file system verification failed"
    (No rush, as I've been getting my ***-kicked since September, but I'd be happy to hear any advice you may be able to impart)
    Thank you kindly.

  • HT4528 hard to press lock button. how can i fix it or how much would it be to fix it? i have Iphone4s and its only a year old

    My lock button on top of my phone does not work. In order for it to work it needs to be pressed really hard. Phone was not dropped or damaged and just started having this problem. Concerned because cannot afford a new phone so i would like to know how to fix this problem.

    If you're within the first year of purchase, or if you purchase AppleCare/Apple protection plan the warranty is extended to two years, then you can get the device replaced for free under warranty.  Just set an appointment at a local retail store or call 800-MY-APPLE to determine if a replacement device is needed.

  • My iPod touch isn't being recognized by my pc. The lock button on it won't work due to water damage, and a friend of mine fixed the problem by restoring it on his computer. How do I restore it without the lock button?

    My iPod touch isn't being recognized by my pc. The lock button on it won't work due to water damage, and a friend of mine fixed the problem by restoring it on his computer. How do I restore it without the lock button?

    first try:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    next
    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - 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.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My lock button on my iPod is jammed/ stuck and my warranty is up so any Idea how to fix it or will apple help me?

    Randomly my iPod lock button got stuck does anyone know how to fix it or do they know if apple fixes it? The problem with apple my warranty is up so please help me thanks

    You will need to pay to have it replaced. Check with third-party repair depots. It's cheaper than Apple. In the mean time, here is a workaround to get it to work.

  • My lock button on my iphone broke, i have apple care, but will i still have to pay for it to be fixed when i send it in? and how will i get a loaner phone?

    The lock button on my iphone is jammed, and i need to send it in to get it fixed. Can someone explain the process to me of sending in your phone to apple? and even if i have apple care, will i still have to pay for my phone to be fixed? if so, around how much do you think this would cost? im not familiar with apple, so any help would be great! thanks!

    If your phone was damaged by you  or in accidental damage, then you would be liable to pay for the repairs.  Apple does not offer "loaner" phones, but if you have a credit card, they will "advance ship" a replacement to you so you can get it, then return your damaged one to them and as long as they get it back within a resonable time and it is warranty covered damage, they do not charge you for the replacement iPhone, but they do charge you a fee for the advanced replacement option (about $40-80 USD IIRC).
    You can eliminate all the at by making an appointment at a local AASP (Apple Authorized Service Provider) and they should be able to check your iPhone on the spot.  It it is covered under the warranty, they shoud replace it for free right there, and if not, they would let you know and you have the choice to make the repairs or not.
