How to Reset iPhone with Broken Power Button

Hello
Just recently I've had the problem with my phone, it had a non-responsive black screen and it would not turn back on
If you have this same issue, please follow these steps;
1) Connect your iPhone to iTunes
2) Enable backup of your phone via iCloud
3) Restore your iPhone to the latest backup that you can see, it would be soon; due to the backup being directly to your iCloud wirelessly
I'm not 100% sure if it will fix your issues as well, but it worked for me. Good Luck!

There's no way to reset the iPhone without the power button.

    3) erese your phone
    4) pug and restore your phone from backup

  • MacBook frozen with broken power button

    i have a 2010 MacBook Pro that has a broken power button, which seems to be a common problem with this model. To turn it on, I have to open the case and short out two pins on the motherboard. Lately, my MacBook has been freezing on me, which leads to a solid black screen. I can move the mouse around but there is nothing to click on. Since my power button is broken, I cannot just hold it down to force a shutdown like usual and I do not have time to let the laptop's battery burn itself out all day so I can start it back up.
    Is there anything I can do to turn my Mac off while it's still running? I have the back case open and the fans are going. I'm afraid to poke around in there while it's running.
    Thanks.

    Please make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service.

  • IPhone disabled, broken power button, no passcode, how to restore?

    iPhone 5 says "iphone is disabled", the top power button is broken, no possible way of putting in the passcode. Need to restore/restart/unlock/whatever it.
    How do?

    Try this:
    Use Find My iPhone
    If you enabled Find My iPhone, you can use it to erase your device.
    Go to icloud.com/#find to see if you enabled Find My iPhone.
    Click All Devices at the top of your browser window.
    Select your device and click "Erase [device]" to erase your device and its passcode.
    Use the Setup Assistant on your device to restore the most recent backup of your device.

  • Resetting Phone with No Power Button and iPhone Not Backed Up Message Blocking the Slide to Power Off Feature

    I've learned how to reset the phone after an iPhone Not Backed Up message cannot be clicked off of, but my Power button is not working and I've been using the greyed out screen button to lock the screen and power off. Now it is not working to turn the phone off for a reset because the iPhone Not Backed Up message is in the way of sliding the power off feature on the screen. Do I have any options?

    Try a reset:
    Hold the Sleep\Wake and Home Buttons until the screen goes dark and the Apple logo appears

  • IPhone 4s stuck in lock screen with broken power button

    Okay so my power button was jammed 9-10 months ago for unexplained reasons and I've been using the assistive touch since then. My phone will be two in early September so it's fairly old.
    My phone is in the lock screen and all I can do is use the assistive touch to make a phone call. I can even hang up but I can't slide to power off or open a text. Is there any way I can fix this?
    My phone was just updated to iOS 7.1.2 a few hours ago if that makes any difference in what's wrong.

    How about getting the phone's switch repaired?

  • Restoring disabled iPod with broken power button

    My daughter forgot her passcode and I need to wipe/restore her disabled iPod. But the power button is broken. How do I do this?
    One suggestion:
    I found some similar discussions where lllaass recommends using RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode. I downloaded RecBoot, but couldn't get it to work because "iTunesMobileDevice.DLL is missing". In fact, the instructions for RecBoot say "The program requires LibUSB utility whos setup is included in the zip package", only ... no such utility was included in the zip package. How do I get RecBoot to work?
    Any other suggestions?

  • HT1212 resetting phone with broken lock button

    I bought a used iPhone 4S (which did not have a passcode on it) with a broken lock button. When I turned on the phone after a full charge, it said to update the OS. So, I did. All of a suddent there was a passcode on the phone. I asked her the passcode and I tried what she told me. Well, I tried it too many times and now the phone is disabled and says to connect to iTunes. I've set up an iTunes account (at the direction of the Verizon store), but cannot figure out how to reset the phone from iTunes. Any advice?

    Read the article you were just at: iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong ...
    That's how you handle this issue.
    If you can't turn off the phone to perform recovery mode because the Sleep/Wake button is damaged, then you won't be able to do anything on the phone with recovery or DFU mode.  You'll probably have to replace the device.

  • Note retreival from dead phone with broken power button

    Hi all - my iphone 4s is dead for good, and my lock/power button on the top is broken.  when i try to retreive my notes from the icloud, i get a message saying, "to use icloud notes, create a new email address by turning on notes in your icloud settings using iOs or or OS X"  is it possible to retreive my notes although i can't access the actual iphone itself? any help is much appreciated!

    If you had ever gone to Settings>iCloud and tried to turn notes syncing on you would have been prompted to turn on Mail to create an iCloud email account first.  If you never synced them with iCloud they cannot be recovered unless you backed up your phone to your computer using iTunes.  If you did back up to your computer using iTunes, restoring the backup to another iPhone would recover them; or, you could purchase and use 3rd party software to extract them from the backup (like iPhone Backup Extractor).

  • Reboot/restart ipod touch with broken power button

    I dont think my ipod touch is broken but it wont turn on, the power button has always been broken and it cant be repaired. Is there a program or something i can download to completelty restart my ipod, I dont care about my apps or anything. I just want it to work

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    Instead of using the puttons to place the iPod in recovery mode
    Place the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs:

    RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
    If necessary:
    Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
    and

    - 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.

  • How to turn iPhone on without power button

    My phone is not turning on ...and my power button is off...i tried to plug in to the pc it dosent work.,...please help....my power button does not work and when i plug in many charges it dosent work

    The only other way to power on an iPhone would be by plugging it in to charge. If you have tried multiple usb cables and wall adaptors and it is still not powering on then book an appointment at an Apple Store to have the iPhone evaluated.

  • Itunes still doesn't pick up my phone when I connect it to the computer. And I can't reset it with the power button because its broken. so can someone tell me how i can make itunes pick my phone up if thats possible

    it says its in recovery mode but idk for sure

    iPod touches or any iDevices from Apple sync only to one computer. If you sync to a different computer, all your music will be replace with the music from the new computer's iTunes. If the music were purchased from iTunes, you can re-download them again otherwise the music on iPod touch will be deleted. Do you have iTunes backup?
