Music buttons on the lock screen no longer work with ios7.

on my 4S, when ios 7 was loaded, bluetooth music play buttons and the music buttons on the lock screen no longer work. Hence, I can neither use the music buttons at the lock screen nor can I use the control on my car (bluetooth...) to change songs. Volume adjust at the lock screen appears to work. Can't pause/play or move to the next/prior music.

I did see a reply on a similar post:
You can try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
However, some onther users have reported the same problem so it it may be a bug in iOS
I did the RESET DEVICE only to mine (i.e., did not reset all settings...) and it did work to fix the buttons (haven't tested on the car, but it'll likely be OK now...). Certainly there is a bug somewhere that needs fixed...

Does the 3GS get the photo button on the lock screen?

I thought the update included a photo button on the lock screen. Did anyone else get it on their 3GS?

Yes, I have it on mine. Just double click the home button.

No camera button on the lock screen

I watched the Apple event where they described all the functions of the iPhone4S and one of the things they said it had, a camera icon on the lock
screen, is not on my phone. Is something wrong with my phone or do others see this as well?

Nevermind I just found the answer in another thread. You have to double tap the home button on the lock screen and it comes up.

Camera button on the lock screen missing

I've successfully updated to IOs5, but I'm missing the camerca button on the lock screen. I have a 4. Anyone else?

same exact thing happened to me!
but it's not on the basic home screen, it appears when you double click the home button while on the lock screen.

HT5957 Controlling music apps in lock screen doesn't work in ios7.02?

After applying the second update to ios7, none if my music apps function in the lock screen. No stopping music from any app including the Apple music app in the lock screen. This means that Bluetooth controllers such as car stereo systems can't control next track, pause or stop on any music app being accessed since the screen is generally locked while driving. This is dangerous because the only way to control these apps - while driving - is to unlock the phone. Apparently my phone is now more secure, but I guess that means it securely doesn't work in lock screen.

Try A and B
(A) Restart iPad
1. Hold down the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears.
2. Drag the slider to turn off iPad.
3. Turn iPad back on, hold down the Sleep/Wake until the Apple logo appears
(B) Reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: Data will not be affected.

My iPhone 4S seems to be in visual impaired mode, and the touch screen no longer works. I have tried rebooting the phone without success. How can I get back to normal mode?

I solved my own problem by clicking the home button 3 times.

My iPad Mini with retina display suddenly will not connect to the Internet. It shows full wifi bars, yet no web pages will load. My Internet is working with all other apple devices in my house. The iPad also no longer works with celluar data.

My iPad Mini with retina display suddenly will not connect to the Internet. It shows full wifi bars, yet no web pages will load. My Internet is working with all other apple devices in my house. The iPad also no longer works with celluar data. I'm not sure what has happened. It was working fine a few hours ago. I have tried resetting it, ive restarted my browser etc. I tried to erase all data from my Ipad but I can't do that because it needs to sign into my Apple ID and use the Internet!

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

The "new" hotmail no longer works with safari, but works with firefox. Hmm.

The "new" hotmail no longer works with safari, but works with firefox. Hmm. i find this very convenient being a microsoft product. anybody else wonder why this new version happens to not be safari compatible? does anybody know if it works on the PC version of safari? if not, i find this to be a blatant move on microsofts part to bias the safari browser (especially since its basicly new on the window platform). forcing safari/hotmail users to "have" to use another browser to access their hotmail accounts.

I have been successfully using Hotmail and Gmail with Safari for a long time. For roughly the past month, that relationship is rocky at best. At times, one of the following actions suddenly opens Hotmail, but it is a short-lived solution:
(a) Hotmail directly
(b) Hotmail Home>Hotmail
(c) Sign up to Windows Hotmail
(d) Deletion of prescribed cookies, resetting, etc. - made no difference
Both Firefox and Opera work fine with Hotmail - especially Opera is very fast.
In addition, Safari and Gmail does not work with Attachments, but otherwise Gmail is OK.
I suspect I have to wait for a Safari fix because in my case I do not wish to abandon Hotmail, and Safari is a given. I would think that Safari would want to stay competitive with the two biggies, Hotmail and Gmail, which must have large numbers of users.
I certainly would appreciate any other suggested fixes.

Why are the forward and backward buttons so close to the play/pause button on the lock screen?

The quickest way to control the playing of music or podcasts is on the lock screen after double tapping the button. The controls for forward, rewind and play/pause are way too close together. There seems to be no logical reason for having them so close when there is room on the screen. Is there a way of moving these buttons?

No. But tell apple about your concern http://www.apple.com/feedback/

Why does my music control on the lock screen not working?

When My phone is locked and I want to control my music that is playing, nothing happens. The play button is showing and the song that I am already listening to is not showing up. I can not skip forward or go back. I have powered off the phone and it is still doing the same thing. Somtimes the double click of the home button does the same thing, but it is more concerning for the lock screen control.
I just saw this issue come up with the New iOS6 download.
Help?

There is corrupted data or settings on your phone.
Try as needed:
1. Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
2. Restore iOS using iTunes, also restoring a backup
3. Restore iOS using iTunes as a new phone .
iTunes: Restoring iOS software

The volume controls will not show up in the music app or the lock screen music controls. What do I do?

Where is the camera button on the lock screen?

That was the big point of the camera beyond increased megapixels.

If you double-click the home button while on the lock screen it pops up on the bottom right-hand side.
