  • 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...

  • 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.

  • TS3992 How can I back up an iphone when I haven't set the phone up for back ups & the touch screen doesn't work? The phone can receive calls (not answer) & the pictures & messages can be seen but touch screen doesn't work to unlock the phone or select any

    How can I back up an iphone when I haven't set the phone up for back ups & the touch screen doesn't work? The phone can receive calls (not answer) & the pictures & messages can be seen but the touch screen doesn't work to unlock the phone or select anything. We want to save/transfer pictures, contacts, and music to the replacement phone.

    Try backing it up to your computer with iTunes.  Connect it to your computer, open iTunes, click on the name of the phone in iTunes, go to the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings and click Back Up Now.  Also go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases to transfer you apps and other purchased media to your iTunes library.

  • I cant open apps on my iPhone 4 the touch screen doesn't work.  I have restored my phone and still nothing works.

    I can't open apps on my iPhone.  The touch screen doesn't work.  I have restored it already but it still won't work.  What can I do.

    If the touch screen is not having any response then you probably have a hardware failure. Take your phone to an Apple Store or authorised service provider to have it checked.

  • How to unlock an iphone 3gs when it's sim locked and the lock button doesn't work???

    I bought this iphone 3gs off an app. I just want to use it as an ipod. it is sim locked (with two attempts left) and the lock button doesn't work at all. What can I do? I just want to use it as an ipod.
    I have also tried everything. I took the sim card out and put it back in again. And I have also left it out. And I have tried connecting it to itunes but I need to unlock. (some of these were suggested by the seller)
    Please help me.
    im

    My guess - and this is completely a guess - is that the SIM in that phone has a PIN that was added to it by the previous owner. Whomever you bought it from didn't bother to check for this (or didn't care) before they got it from the previous owner.
    You need to get a new AT&T SIM for that phone - you could even borrow one from a friend if they have one that will fit the phone. You would only need the SIM to activate it.
    There is no way to activate an iPhone without a SIM in it, even if you don't plan to use it as anything other than an iPod.

    Do a reset, hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the device to boot back up.

  • I cannot use my ipad2 because the touch screen doesn't work at all. First I cannot unlock it or do anything in the screen!!!! Why?

    I cannot use my ipad2 because the touch screen doesn't work at all. First I cannot unlock it or do anything in the screen!!!! Why?

    Have you tried a reset To see if that fixes it ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • The lock button doesn't work

    I bought my iphone 5 for just a few months. But the lock button doesn't work these days.

    Place the iPod in recovery mode using this program:
    For PC

    For MAC or PC
    The Firmware Umbrella - TinyUmbrella
    Then restore to factory settings/new iPod. If still problem you have a hardware problem.

  • 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 .

  • Dropped my phone and now I see almost-transparent lines on my lock screen and the touch screen doesn't work. Help?

    I was walking to my garage when my iPhone slipped out of my hand and fell on the floor. I looked at it and saw strange almost-transparent lines on my lock screen. I tried to unlock my phone, but it wouldn’t let me do anything. It was almost as the touch screen wasn’t working. I turned it off and plugged in my phone to the charger and it started up automatically, but it still looked the same and wouldn’t work. I think that my iPhone 5 might be broken? Please help!

    Make an appointment at an Apple store and have then assess it

  • IPhone 6 - Camera from Lock Screen doesn't Work

    So i must to open the iPhone and start the camera...
    If i restart the device, it's working but i don't want to do that every day !
    Does anybody has the same problem or not ? Do you have a solution please ?
    Device : iPhone 6 64Gb
    iOS : 8.1.1 (12B436)
    Many thanks

    Hi,
    I haven't got the same problem but I think to solve your problem is that you have to enable Assistive Touch and then try it (If that does't work, you might have to take it to the apple shop)
    To enable assistive touch, follow the steps below,
    •Go to settings
    •Go to General
    •Go to Accessibility
    •Scroll to the very bottom and find "AssistiveTouch"
    •Click it
    •Turn it on
    Hopefully that works but if it does't like I said above, you might need to go to your local apple store and get them to try and fix it.
