My iphone4 round button stops working sometimes. And i need to push it for several times to get a respond. What should I do?
Why the round button in iphone4 does not operate sometimeS?
Because something is wrong with your iphone.
Try the basics from the manual: restart, reset, restore.
If these fail, it is likely a hardware issue. Make an appointment at the genius bar.

My power button all of a sudden got stuck and doesn't work, so I can't turn my phone on or off
No problem! FYI, if it's considered accidental damage or past the warranty time, you're looking at $199 USD. If it's within warranty time and not considered accidental damage by Apple, then it should be free.
Make sure to do a backup to iTunes or iCloud first, though, before you go, and make sure to schedule an appointment online at http://concierge.apple.com/reservation/us/en/techsupport/ -
Upgraded to 5.4 when opening lightroom get a message "encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and need to quite" tried this several time but get the same error message. Says Lightroom will attempt to fix the problem the next time it launches but that is not happening. How do it fix this?
Delete the preview cache using your operating system. It is a folder whose name ends with Previews.LRDATA. Do not delete the Lightroom catalog, which ends with .LRCAT

Was just wondering why some phones are replaced & others not? Is there a secret hand shake or specific "terms" to use to describe your problem?
Really? Seriously? You expect Apple to support a warranty for years because you plan on using the phone for more than two years. Buy yourself a TV at Best Buy and see how well they will respond after 18 months when the power button does not work.
If the sleep button is not working the phone is NOT in excellent shape. Apple stands behind their products but only during the warranty period. You are outside the warranty period. You will have to pay. Using the TV analogy above how much of a discount do you think Best Buy would give you on a new TV in exchange for your damaged TV.
You seem to be a member of the "ME" generation where you think everything is owed to you. Get over it. Either pay or do without. -
I recently upgraded my phone software to iOS 6 and now my email will not download. I have tried to reboot the phone to no avail. Anyone have any suggestions as to how I can get this phone working again?
You can't merge the backups, you'll have to delete the backup of your old phone. If it says it's currently in use when you try, that will normally clear up on its own but may take 3-5 days to do so. Give it a few days and try deleting the old backup again.
In the meantime, you can create a manual backup of your new phone on your computer by connecting it to your computer, opening iTunes, clicking on the name of your phone in iTuens, going to the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings and clicking Back Up Now. Also go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases. Then you'll be safe until you can start backup up to iCloud again. -
Can anyone help with this problem - up until recently I had been using Elements 13 very successfully but now it won't launch - neither will 12 but 9 will but with an old catalog. Help!

Thank you for contacting Callaway uPro Technical Support.
Please follow the instructions below to sync your upro mx/mx+ with your computer and update to the latest software - 3.1.005.
1. Ensure the upro sync software is running on your computer (you will see a black icon at the bottom right of your screen by the clock with a Callaway logo in it).
2. Plug your device into your computer; select Sync then PC.
3. The sync software should initialize and launch the uxplore website. If you haven't installed the upro sync software you can download it Here:http://www.callawayuxplore.com/downloads/
4. Download this: http://media.callawaygolf.com/webupdate/callawaygolf/2012/products/accessories/u pro/upro-mx-plus/downloads/3_1_005_launch.jnlp.zip
5. Double click "3_1_005_launch," then click the green START button
NOTE: If you get a "Unable to launch application" error please follow the instructions below.
1a. Navigate to "Control Panel" through the start menu located in the bottom left of your screen.
2a. Find and uninstall any "Java" applications. After uninstalling please go back to the start menu and right click on "Computer" or "My Computer" and select "Properties". In the right half of the pop up windows it'll say the Operating system your computer is running. If it says x64 bit click: http://tinyurl.com/lhkps2rto download the correct java for your computer. If it doesn't have a number please click: http://tinyurl.com/qysyctb to download the correct Java.
3a. Once the correct Java is installed please follow steps 1-5 listed above.
4a. To update your Java back to 7 please click: http://java.com/en/download/index.jsp. Once on the page select "Free Java Download" to run the download (Make sure to uncheck any Mcafee or toolbar installations during the installation).
Once the update has completed the device will restart itself. At that time you can unplug it or select Sync and PC to launch the uxplore site again to continue syncing courses.
NOTE: Do not try to sync courses to the unit while the update is running or both processes will fail.Java isn't a part of the Mac OS X anymore, so you will need to install a version of Java. However, I don't know what version of java is required for this software. You need to explain to their support that you are using a Mac and what OS you are running. Download the latest java and see if that works.

You will need to connect the device to the computer that you normally sync to and you should then be able to reset the device and re-sync your content to it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212) - you may need to put the device into recovery mode :http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 -

How to Perform an Archive and Install
An Archive and Install will NOT erase your hard drive, but you must have sufficient free space for a second OS X installation which could be from 3-9 GBs depending upon the version of OS X and selected installation options. The free space requirement is over and above normal free space requirements which should be at least 6-10 GBs. Read all the linked references carefully before proceeding.
1. Be sure to use Disk Utility first to repair the disk before performing the Archive and Install.
Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger, Leopard or Snow Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Do not proceed with an Archive and Install if DU reports errors it cannot fix. In that case use Disk Warrior and/or TechTool Pro to repair the hard drive. If neither can repair the drive, then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall from scratch.
3. Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When you reach the screen to select a destination drive click once on the destination drive then click on the Option button. Select the Archive and Install option. You have an option to preserve users and network preferences. Only select this option if you are sure you have no corrupted files in your user accounts. Otherwise leave this option unchecked. Click on the OK button and continue with the OS X Installation.
4. Upon completion of the Archive and Install you will have a Previous System Folder in the root directory. You should retain the PSF until you are sure you do not need to manually transfer any items from the PSF to your newly installed system.
5. After moving any items you want to keep from the PSF you should delete it. You can back it up if you prefer, but you must delete it from the hard drive.
6. You can now download a Combo Updater directly from Apple's download site to update your new system to the desired version as well as install any security or other updates. You can also do this using Software Update. -
I had an appointment this morning with Apple to try and solve the problem with my lock button ranomly not working anymore and a few hours before my appointment with the Apple store i was using my phone and my screen randomly went black and stopped working. And the p.roblem now i cant use it. I tried restarting the phone but I can't restart it due to my lock button not working so i need help with a solution on what i can do. I missed my appointment today because i could no longer use my phone and i'm now stuck using my laptop. I did also try connecting it to my MacBook but the screen was still unresponsive and black. I rescheduled my appointment to Monday to see what is wrong with my button and screen but in the meanwhile i would like to know if there is anything i can do or if i would just have to wait until monday and take it in to Apple. Any help would be really appreciated as i am phonelss for now until i take it in to Apple in a few days. Thanks.

My iphone 4 wont turn on after hours of charging, normally i would press the lock button and home button together but my lock button stopped working afue weeks ago. Help!
Hello Kimbo1991,
It sounds like your phone is not successfully booting even though you have reset the device. I would next recommend attempting a backup and restore to iTunes with this article:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
If you are unable to restore with iTunes I would next put the device into recovery mode, and attempt the restore again:
If you can't update or restore your iOS device

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

I dropped my Iphone in water and the on/off button stopped working, how do I fix it?
I dropped my phone in some water and it was only in there for about two or three seconds. I grabbed it and dried it straight away and made sure to get in all of it, and it was fine, everything worked. But about an hour after the on/off button stopped working, so i have to use the home button to unlock it and have to wait for the screen to turn off after 1 minute of leaving it. I cant turn it off and dont know how to fix it. Will it go away on its own, do I have to send it off to get fixed? This literally happened like two hours ago, and my phone is a bit more than a year old. Can anyone help me?
Make an app;ointment at the genius bar and take your credit card. You can get an out of warrnty replacement for an iPhone 4 for $149.
If you had just done it, the advice would have been to shut it off and put it in a bowl or bag of uncooked rice or silica gel for a week. Unfortunately, since it's been powered on for several hours, since then, it may have been permanently damaged. You can try the rice trick, but be prepared to pay for a replacement at some point down the road. -
So i just got my ipod august 2012. about 1 month ago, my home button stopped working and my ipod is getting slower and slower. Would apple be able to fix it for free?
Ipods automatically have a one year warrany unless you have violated the terms. But you can pay to extend the warranty. It depends, they may fix it for free or they may charge a bit. Im not entirely sure. But id say theres a good chance that they may fix it for free. With battery replacements, ive heard that they give you an entirely new ipod with a charge of $80. So i think it depends
