Lock screen music controls not always working?

when double clicking the home button, it brings up the music controls as expected. the problem: if I hit pause and leave the phone alone for more than about 5 minutes, I can no longer access music controls by double clicking. it wasn't this way before ios7. was this change intentional it or is this a bug?
(I know I can play music through the control center by swiping up from the lock screen, but that's not what this question is about.)

I just need somebody to tell me if this is happening on their ios7 device. even if you don't have the answer to how to fix it. I want to know if this is a bug or if it was intentional.

Locked screen music controls doesn't want to work for 'remote', Why?

When the screen is locked and you double tap on the home button, basic music options display, it's the top dar of the music app. This function works perfectly with the music app but the remote app by apple to control iTunes doesn't seem to be compatible, it seems stupid but possible. I just want to make sure I'm not missing anything, and that its not just me and my iPad.
Thanks

I know how the remote app works and how the locked screen works .But that's exactly what I said, the remote app will not control anything on the iPad. It only controls the iTunes library on your computer.
it wouldn't matter if you could get to the remote app with screen locked - even though you cant because it will not control the Music app on the iPad.

Lock Screen Music Player Issues

Here is the deal:
To the best of my knowledge, there is no solution (as of yet). I am hoping someone can guide me in the event there is.
I carry my iPhone in my front pocket like many people. I don't carry anything other than the phone in that pocket other than the headphones. Yet somehow, almost daily, the music player starts while the phone is in my pocket. If I manage to hear it, despite the surrounding noise and whether the headphones are plugged in, I can usually turn it off and save the battery. However, in many instances, I have pulled my phone out to find that the player has run the battery into the ground. After doing some general research, I have found that this significant problem is not limited to me.
Now I understand that generally, to activate the music player you have to press the home button twice and then tap play on the music player. However, day after day the player starts. I am certain that when the phone goes into the pocket, I press the button on top of the phone placing it in Sleep mode. Regardless of what I do - nothing seems to work and it is my understanding that there is no setting from Apple to disable the music player.
Therefore, I believe my options are limited to the following and hopefully someone can confirm my understanding or offer better solutions:
1.     I can remove every song from my IPhone. Without music, there is nothing to play. Granted it defeats one of the key features of my $600 device;
2.     I can jailbreak the iPhone and rely on the thoughtful functions created by third parties outside of Apple who have thought this process through; or
3.     I can buy a competitive device that is not simply a phone built around a media player.
Frankly, at the end of the day, how is this functionality not a safety hazard? If I am stranded somewhere with no phone battery because Apple decide not to give me an option to turn off the "lock screen" music player function - I would go so far as argue that this is Apple's own negligence. A "lock screen" by definition should LOCK THE SCREEN. This should not be a "lock screen" with certain Apple exceptions. At the very least, Apple should give the owner the ability to determine whether this information is accessible from the outside screen.
Even worse, assume that I have confidential business memos stored in the music player (this is where it stores them). What if my phone was found by a competitor who decided to listen to the memo that I have on my phone - based on the current function, there would be nothing to stop them? Or what if a child finds a phone and the music library contains explicit lyrics. Is there nothing to stop the child from accessing these. I cannot believe that the genuses at Apple did not have the foresight to think of these potential issues with the function - therefore, I believe that there must be a solution and I am not seeing it.
Can anyone help?

I do have a passcode - as I mentioned I am using a LOCK SCREEN which is the password protected screen. My point was that audio memos (like voice memos) are stored as audio files in the music player. They are accessible through the standard lock screen music controls on the iPhone. It makes no difference whether you have the screen locked/unlocked. To the best of my knowledge, there is no setting to turn off those controls which would be the ultimate solution to my problem.
I purposefully don't save such memos becuase I know that anyone can access them.
I am more concerned with the player turning itself on, daily.

Ios7 music from the lock screen via control centre

Help!!! whilst i can see how it is quicker to access music from the lock screen via control centre it doesn't appear to work correctly
when returning to the control centre from the lock screen after a few minutes listening to music it works fine i.e. the track you were listening to appeas there
my issue is that if you return to the control centre after not listening to music say for a few hours or overnight it does no return to the track you were listening to and decidess for itself that its in shuffle mode. very frustrating
is this correct or is this in the settings

My lock screen button is not working and i turned off my iphone with assistive touch. Now i cant turn my phone back on!

I used assistive touch to turn off my iphone, because my lock screen button is not working, so now i cant turn it back on! What i did was, i went to assistive touch, then i held down the lock screen button to turn it off. Now i can't turn it back on.

To turn it back on when you use assistive touch, all you have to do is plug your iphone into a charger and it will power back on

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.

Music controls not working on headphones

I use my Bower Wilkens P5.
and everything usually works fine.
the connection in the cable started to go bad
so I replaced the cable, and now the music controls are ot working at all.
Volume up or down, and song skipping.
Checked on my ipad, and head phones control works as it should.
Any help?
Where can I find the settings for these controls on IOS settings?
I have a feeling that something mechanical in the headphone jack of my iphone 5 is messed up.
Thanks!

There are no settings in iOS to control this.
Clean the headphone port.

N95 screen lights don't always work

Hi guys just got my nokia replacement but the screen lights don't always work. They work sometimes then go off. Any ideas?
Its not who i am underneath. But what i do that defines me.
You are here for a reason Superman.
"Come to me son of Jor-EL. KNEEL BEFORE ZOD"

When you say it doesn't always work, are there certain steps you can reproduce to make it work (or not as the case may be ?)
The only thing I can suggest is formatting your N95 by using the *#7370# code and NOT restoring any backup and seeing if the problem still happens - if it does you have a hardware fault and you should approach your local Nokia Service Centre.
So far from the v12 firmware thread I don't think anyone has reported the backlight not working as a known problem.

Edward

I am using MAC OSX 10.9.4 and LR5 Ver 5.6. I can't drag LR to my second screen. It's always worked before. All of my other apps drag to the second screen with no issues. I've re-booted my computer and it did't help. Any ideas???
