HT1343 Power button – for Standby not working anymore

Power button – OS X Mavericks
Tap to power on. Once powered on, tap to wake or sleep.
This shortcut is not working after update anymore. My system is 10.9.2 . is it possible to define the power button pressed shortly to standby like it was before?

It was change because laptop owners couldn't keep from accidentally hitting the power button when reaching for the delete key.
Press and hold for about 2 seconds to get sleep.
Press and hold for about 4-5 seconds for dialog box.
Press and hold for about 10 seconds to force shutdown.

  • What to do now when my iPad won't turn on after I turn it off. It shows only the apple logo. I am sure it has above 70% charge as when I sync my iPad it shows necessary detail in iTunes. I have tried, HOME & POWER button, but did not work.

  • Autoplay for slideshows not working anymore (Android)

    Hi,
    The Autoplay feature for Slideshows on an Android Viewer does not work anymore (App Version 3.4.1.2.91513, v29, Android 4.2, build today with latest DPS App Builder). It's an 1024x768 px sized folio with PDF, v28.
    Anyone else having this problem?
    EDIT:
    - The same problem for HTML content (vimeo video placed as well as an Edge Animation).
    - Some Overlays such as slideshows show with crappy quality and the text is not readable.
    EDIT2:
    - HTML Content always overlays other interactive features, like MSO's. The order on the iPad and in InDesign (MSO has a higher layer) is OK.
    Thanks,
    Yves

  • Why does the power button intermittently fault -- Not work to wake up the phone?

    Iphone 4 occassionally won't respond to the power/sleep button.  Isn't stuck -- works normally much of the time, but occassionally acts as though the battery is dead.  Have to plug into a power source to activate phone.  Battery will show same charge it had before it went into sleep mode.  Can be near fully charged and proceed working for the rest of the day just fine.
    Button does not stick or seem faulty in any way.  But, when you least need it to not work - such as in travel - or for emergences and have not power source to get to -- is bad.  An unreliable phone for a doctor is not good.  I have presented the problem to a few repair shops who are either not familiar with this behavior or suggest that is may be software rather than hardware.  Something miss reading the battery to the phone indicating that the battery is dead when in fact it is not.  Had the phone restored at the Apple store and this did not solve the problem.
    It seems I did run across a blog that this occurred with some IOS update?
    Would be grateful for advice.
    Thanks

    Hi
    I found this tip on the net.
    Plug phone cable in (powered), press and hold button until voice control is activated, release, unplug.

    I have not tryed it my self but it may work..
    There are a simular trick to get the home button to work, here it is.
    Open a default iOS application, such as Stocks, Calculator, or Weather
    Press and hold down the Power button until the “Slide to Power Off” dialog appears, then release
    Now press and hold the Home button until the “Slide to Power Off” screen disappears, quitting the application.

  • IPod Touch 5 home button, power button and charging not working!!

    I have an iPod Touch 5 I got last year for Christmas, so it's about an year old. The home button has not been working recently so I tried everything to fix it but nothing worked. We took it to places to get it fixed but it costed a fortune that I would have bought a new iPod Touch instead. I just used the Assistive Touch instead. Then today I was using my iPod Touch and I turned it off. About a minute later I went to get my iPod Touch and used it again and threw it on the bed because that's what I always do and it never breaks. Then a few minutes later, I got my iPod Touch from my bed and I tried to turn it on but it wouldn't budge. Then I remembered it had low battery so it must have shut down because it had no more battery power left. I charged my iPod Touch and tried to turn it on a again but i wouldn't. It would normally turn on and show the Apple Logo and go directly to the lock screen but it just stayed black. I searched up how to fix this but the only way to turn it back on is doing something with the home button but I couldn't since it was broken. I tried to find computer but they were all occupied and the only that wan't occupied was a Chromebook but it my USB couldn't fit in because it was too big. I try to find other ways but there was nothing that could work. I think my iPod Touch isn't charging because whenever I charge my iPod and it has no battery power left, it would usually turn on by itself. I really don't want to go out and fix my iPod at a store because it'll cost a fortune. Please help!! Thank you

    Turn on without Home/Power Button
    You need a computer with iTunes which rules out a Chromebook

  • MSI X58 Platinum - power button after hibernate not working

    Hi,
    I have MSI X58 Platinum board that is having a problem recovering from hibernate state.
    When I press the power button, it will turn on for about 2 seconds before shutting off again. Nothing is shown on the screen.
    After pressing the power button several times more, it will then power up again and wake up from the hibernation. Everything is back to normal after that.
    It used to work fine where single press to the power button is all it takes to wake up.
    Has anyone experience this problem? It has no problem going to hibernate state (S3).
    Thanks.

  • HT4528 power button and screen not working - is this fixable and where do I go?

    Last night my phone was knocked out of my hand and fell hard on the sidewalk.  It doesn't look broken, I have it encased in an Otterbox but I can no longer see my screen, where do I get it fixed and is it fixable?  Also a couple weeks ago my power button stopped working.  Where do I go to get this fixed or do I have to get a new phone?  I didn't get the insurance as I never had an issue with my phones before this.

  • HT1338 Power cable for Macbook not working / Apple Care discount?

    My power cable for my Macbook stopped working. I went to the bookstore at my school and at first they told me I could get a discount on a new one ($29 instead of $79) because I have Apple Care. Then they told me that was a mistake and I have to pay full price even though I have Apple Care... True/false????

    It appears your Macbook is at least 2 years old. If you have the extended warranty and there is no physicla damage to your power adapter, then you "might" be eligible for a free replacement.
    Have you tried replacing the duckhead adapter yet? That's the part that normally fails first.

  • Replaced screen power button and lcd not working

    I just replaced the lcd/digitizer on my ipod touch 4.  The lcd turns on only if plugged to charge from a dead battery, otherwise, I can't get it to turn on at all.  I can't reset it either, as the power button doesn't work.  More than 1 problem,  I'm sure.Any thoughts?  Itunes doesn't see it either.  I have made sure the connections are good. 

    Very likely you damaged something when replacing the screen.
    - Try taking it a part and verifying that everything is correct.
    - Take it to someone with more experience.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
     Cheers, Tom

  • Hi, my MacBook Air is not working anymore if it's not connected with the power cable. It's pretty new so I can't imagine that the battery is dead already. Why can't I use my MacBook Air without the power cable even though I charged it for hours?

  • HT1212 my iphone is frozen on the lock screen and will not let me enter my passcode, I have held the home button and power button for up to 1 minute and plugged it up to itunes because its locked it wont work? i need help

    i have connected it to itunes like i was told to do and it wont do anything because its locked with a passcode and its frozen on the lock screen and will not let me enter myt passcode and after a while it just shuts off, it has been doing this for almost 48 hours. I was told to hold the home button and power button to shut it down and that I could then restart it and it would work... Nothing has helped, What can I try???

    Reset the device by pressing and holding the home and power buttons for 15-20 seconds until the white Apple logo appears.
    If that does not resolve, restore the device via iTunes on the computer.
    If all else fails, take the device to Apple (or whomever provides support in your country) for evaluation and possible replacement.

  • My ipad 2 just went off. It was working perfectly while charging. I have pressed the power button for ten seconds and it's still not coming on. What do I do?

    My ipad 2 just went off. It was working perfectly while charging. I have pressed the power button for ten seconds and it's still not coming on. What do I do?

    First, confirm that the iPad is charged and then try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad.  Again, say "yes."
    Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely.  Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.
