I have got a problem!!!!! Hold button not working
My ipod is the ipod phota and my problem is that my hold button seems to have stopped working. It will move side to side but it remains locked no matter which side it is on. It is like it is frozen with it on lock mode so I cant restart it. If any one can help that would be great.
I don't know for sure but it's my impression the Apple iPod's "iHold" switch is not a very robust design and is subject to failure. Apparently shortly after the warranty is over. If yours is still under warranty take it back to iStore, they will probably replace it. My daughters iPods' warranty just ran out... hold switch broke.... oh well, tough luck. The genius at the istore's genius bar (their terms, not mine) said I could probably find someone on line that could fix it.

The hold button on my iPod video recently stopped working for no reason I can see (I've never dropped my iPod or gotten it wet or anything). Essencially, when I switch the hold button on, nothing happens (it certainly does not lock the buttons and the little lock symbol doesn't show up).
Is this something I can have repaired under the warranty? I would like to have the hold button since it helps keep songs fron accidentally playing. I wasn't sure if I sent the iPod in if it's something they could fix or replace or whatever and I couldn't find anything on the site about this so I thought I would try posting here for help.
Thanks in advance!
Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.3) 5th Generation iPod Video.It might be, though as you have already tried it is less likely.
The hold switch is largely a mechanical switch and I hoping that maybe he electronic end of the switch might just need restting which could happen during a firmware upgrade (or in your case re-grade).
Nowt to lose...give it a while...else its the repair shop (get an estimate first, a new one maybe cheaper) -
I sent my ipod to apple to get the battery replaced.
On receiving the ipod back i realised the hold button did not work and that the ipod was continuosly crashing when on the move and downloading songs from i tunes.
I contacted the support team thinking i could send it back under the 90 day gurantee (because it was apple who sent me the new ipod back), but because i purchased it 2004 they said I had to purchase some apple protection at £39.99, is this true?
Even though it was apple who sent me a brand new ipod back!!Have you tried resetting or restoring the iPod?

Hold button not working (ping: anyone who is familar with the inside)
This is a ping to anyone who knows anything about the interior of an ipod. My hold switch is staying on, and when I flip it off, its still locked. So what has to be connected inside of my ipod in order for this to work?
What switch needs to be connected?
The hold switch.
You asked about the inner workings of the iPod (for some unknown reason).
“So what has to be connected inside of my ipod in order for this to work?“
What is the hold switch connected to on the inside? Since my hold switch will not go on and off I assume I moved something when I took it apart.
I'll try a reset and restore, but that won't make the hold switch work.
Because???
Well first of all it won't let me reset it because it won't turn on unless its plugged into the computer. Second I don't think a reset will make the hold button work but I might be wrong.
I never said my ipod was brand new.
So you have the “old” U2 Special Edition, not the new one.
Correct, the old 20 GB. -
IPhone 5 Hold Button Not Working Right Side
Hey guys, my iPhone 5's hold button is non responsive on the middle and right side when I push it in. When I push it in on the left edge of the button it works but otherwise it doesn't. My question is, if I take this into the Apple store, can I get it replaced under warranty, or is it not a serious enough issue?
Call AppleCare or make an appointment at an Apple Store if there is one nearby.

For the last few weeks I have had constant problems with pages not working. I.E.: I cannot fill in writeable fields, click on buttons... or anything... nothing on the page works. And, this is not exclusive to a particular site. It does seem to be a browser issue, because I can work well in Explorer.
Both the Yahoo! Toolbar extension and the Babylon extension have been reported to cause an issue like that. Disable or uninstall those add-ons.

Ipod 4th gen volume buttons not working. Volume bar not showing in music or video apps, not a speaker problem as this works fine when testing built in alarm tones???
Have you tried the standard fixes:
- Reset:
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 via iTunes
- Restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod.
If still problem you likely have a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genus Bar of an Apple store is in order. -
Hi , I have an iPhone 5S and I have got a problem with the app store : iI can't update my apps , it is asking me to change frim the UK store to go to the french one , but i have already changed it and I am in the French one !! Help !
Have you tried signing out of your iTunes & App Store on your device and then back in again - Settings>iTunes & App Store, click on Apple ID, then on Sign Out. Then sign in again and see if it accepts the password.
If that doesn't resolve the issue, try resetting your device (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the reset is complete, the Slide to Unlock screen will display. See if the problem is resolved.
Cheers,
