IPad power button stuck

i need help with my iPad power button ..it got stuck..
any tips on how to fix it? or should i just go to a apple for repair?..

Is there a case on the iPad? If there is, try removing it and testing the button again.
If the issue is not caused by an accessory, the iPad will most likely need service. To get the iPad serviced, just make a reservation with a Genius or call AppleCare.

Thanks for that information!
I'm sure I will be calling AppleCare, but the problem is, they charge for the phone calls don't they? Because I don't have money to be spending to be on the phone with a support service.
In other things, it seemed like the only time my MacBook was working was when I had Snow Leopard without the 10.6.8 update download that was supposed to be done to prepare for OS X Lion.
When I look at the information of my HD it says that I have 10.6.8 but that was the install that it claimed to have failed and caused me to restart resulting in all of the repeated problems.
Also, because my computer is currently down, and I've lost all files how would that effect the use of my iPhone? Because if it doesn't get fixed by the time OS 5 is released, how would I be able to upgrade?!

On my iPad power button stopped working

On my iPad power button stops working . Is it any software problem ?

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

If your iPad is in sleep mode you can turn it on by pressing the home button.

Ipod Nano - Power Button Stuck

I had a nano that I dropped and paid to replace at the Genius Bar in September of 2012. Just a couple of weeks ago, the power button became stuck all of a sudden (literally, worked fine using it on the commute to work in the morning, became stuck on the commute home), making it exteremly difficult to press and function.
I just contacted AppleCare in which they said it was out of warranty because it was purchased in October 2005 (I think that was my 1st gen Nano!). I paid to have my nano replaced way under a year ago and they said it's because the warranty doesn't roll over?? Is this true? So if that's the case, if all of a sudden it stopped working a day after I get a replacement, I' would be out of luck too??
Please help! I don't want to put more money into this.

I had this question too and I brought my nano to the genius bar (remember to make reservation before going), they let me pay HK$488 and issued me a brand new 6th, exactly the same model of the one I had! Super satisfied, you should have a try too.
My previously replaced 6th nano the power button stuck, I think because I made use of the fast key of skipping the songs (pressing the home button twice while playing songs), the button I guess suggested to be over-used.
Good luck

Nano power button stuck

My ipod took a dump on me yesterday at work when the power button stoped working on the top. Now ive only had it for about 6 months and my question is will this be covered by the warranty? Also the touchscreen is cracked but works fine will they make me pay for the screen even though i just need the power button fixed?

IPhone Power Button Stuck

I currently have an iPhone 4 which I have had for around 7 months and the power button is stuck. I would just like to know what apple will do if I take it to an apple store?

Same thing happened to my iphone after it fell out of the poorly designed Griffin Elan leather holster case. Power button stuck on, phone cycling until dead. I read about the disassembly to fix, but figured that was out of my comfort zone.
I fixed it though, sort of.
I took an old Bic disposable razor and using a pair of wire cutters, I trimmed away the blade protector , leaving the plastic base and blade protruding. I broke off the handle and had a makeshift thin razorknife-like tool.
I inserted the corner of the thin razor blade between the metal case and the plastic button and pried the button up. Took two tries and the button was no longer stuck in the down position. The phone works now!
Of course, if I try to push the button back down it will probably stick, but I didn't usually power it off very often anyway.
I might try to grind the case with a dremel tool or something like that to keep if from sticking, but haven't tried that yet.
Hope this helps someone else.

IPhone 4S power button stuck in down position

I just got 3 iPhone 4S's for Christmas for my kids through Sprint. I am having a problem with one of the Power buttons stuck in the down position. Sprint won't swap out the phone because they say I "ordered" them more than 14 days ago, even though I activated them on Dec. 25th. So, now I have to drive 2 hrs to an Apple Store. WHY????? Why can't sprint swap out this phone? Why do I have to drive two hours to get to an Apple store so they can swap it out??

Apple will cross ship you a replacement. They will require placing a hold on your credit card, but you will not be charged so long as you return the old one.
As for the drive, I guess it's all a matter of perspective. I make the drive from West of Cleveland, OH to near Pitsburgh every few months to take the wife to the outlet malls where there's no sales tax on clothing. I don't know whether it's a good thing or a bad thing that my wife usually manages to buy enough that I save enough in sales taxes to cover the cost of gas back and forth...

Power Button Stuck, Screen Freezes, Apps won't turn on, ETC.

Please Understand, I am an apple customer, I buy apple technology, and I purchase from the app and music store.
I am very unhappy with the service and technology Apple has provided me with. I am 15 years old and I don't have a phone to communicate with, only an iPod because my parents are of the older generation and don't think young people should have phones. So I guess I'm **** out of luck until I'm 17. So instead of having a phone, I bought and ipod touch 4g so I could use Kik, Snapchat, TextFree, and listen to my music as well. I have used multiple other Apple iPods, only to find out that every single one I got either got corrupted or would just out of the blue stop working. Just recently, I found out how ****** the iPod screens are, my iPod screen dropped not even 2 feet and shattered. So I had my brother in law, who has a computer and technology business, replace my screen and put in a new one. After my screen was put in, my ipod was completely fine. Had no issues and no cracks. But just 3 weeks ago my iPod power button somehow got stuck. I tried mutliple things to fix it, (even had my brother in law try) and we found that there is no way to fix it, AND I found out that the price to pay to fix a stupid power button was $99.00. By the way, paying to get a lousy power button fixed is ******* ridiculous, considering that making a piece of **** like this iPod, probably costs around half the price that it sells for AND is made in either China or Taiwan. Now I know I might get some pretty snobby *** comments about how I don't need an iPod because I'm just a little spoiled brat. Actually that statement is false, considering that I have to work to buy my own iPod. Now, instead of just writing a crap ton of useless words that I know alot of poeple won't read, I will just list the problems that I am having:
Power button is stuck and won't let me do anything. (No, I am not talking about the home button located and the bottom of the iPod)
Apps ALWAYS crash and never let me do what I intend to do. (I don't know if that's because of the app manufacturers or not but my apps are all completely updated)
My music on various occassions won't turn on.
Whenever I try tapping on an app, it leads me to another app in which I don't need to get to.
My keyboard on all occassions wigs out, (for example: when I tap the letter T my keyboard makes Tttttttttttt. I don't need that many T's, sorry)
My camera is slow, and will not take pictures most of the time.
My asssistive touch NEVER works.
I have called Apple support and whenever I would get connected to a representative they wouldn't help me.
The Apple support service *****.
As you can tell, I am not a very happy customer and I'm sure you wouldn't be either considering the fact that my iPod is basically toast, and a big waste of money. I know there are more things to worry about like cancer and whatever BUT this is a technoloical issue not a health issue so don't even try to play that card. If I could have any assistance regarding my issue, I would love to have help.
Thank you for taking your time to read my novel of an issue.

I would recommend that you try backing up your iPod and wiping it clean. Once it is factory reset, restore your data onto it. This should solve your software-based issues.
Now, the stuff that happens, such as another app opening or the keyboard freaking out, if not fixed by the restore, are because of your replacement screen. Also, Apple is charging you $99 to repair the lock button because you have voided the warranty by breaking the device. Who knows? Maybe the drop or the repair caused the button to go out of wack.
Finally, it's cool that you work for your own stuff. I live in a lower middle class area in a lower middle class family and pay for all of my stuff as well. My MacBook Pro, my iPhone 5S, my iPad Air, etc. I know the pain of spending hard earned money. BTW, I'm only 17, and still in High School as well.
Anywho, let me know if the restore works, but as for the physical damage caused by you, you can't blame anyone but yourself for that. I wish you luck.

HT4528 power button stuck

is anyone else having a problem with the power button getting stuck? i have had the iphone 4 for less then a year and only half the button works

iPhone Warranty is full year, so make Genius reservation or set up service and take or send to Apple for resolution under Warranty. Try Virtual Power Button, Settings App > General > Accessibility > Assistive Touch > ON > tap new white screen button > Device > Lock Screen. This can even be used to turn iPhone OFF. To turn iPhone ON, connect to power, charger or USB of computer.

Support issue with X230 problem charing and power button stuck.

My X239 is not charing to the full 100%, I have two other Thinkpad models that my parents and they all change to 100%.. This is newer than theirs. Also the power button on the laptop is not flexing enough, you wont fee if you are pressing it. I send this for repair twice and its not fixed yet.I wonder the support tech read the whole desciption of the trouble or just goes by the category of the trouble. I like to talk to someone to make sence but its all automated. I am so much dissatisfied with their service and the product itself.

Hi,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
I’m sorry to hear that battery of your Lenovo ThinkPad X230 is not charging to 100% and the power button is stuck.
I would suggest you to follow the below troubleshooting steps.
Shutdown, unplug AC and remove battery. Press and hold power button for several seconds. Then re-install battery and AC and restart and see.
Download latest Power Manager and Power Management driver.
Uninstall Power Manager and Power Management driver that is already installed.
Reboot the laptop
Install Power Manager and Power Management driver
Reboot laptop again and see if helps.
Go to Power manager -> Battery tab in advanced view -> Battery maintenance -> Select always fully charge ->Ok and restart the system.
Ensure that the system is plugged-in and that battery firmware is up-to-date. Check the Lenovo support site for any battery firmware updates for your particular model. Perform battery gauge reset. This will allow the battery to relearn available capacity. Update BIOS to the latest level.
Regarding the power button, you may have to disassemble the system and reseat the button. Refer hardware maintenance manual to perform disassembly of the system. Otherwise, you may have to report the issue to Lenovo technical support again. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Please post back with the results!
Best regards,
Mithun.
