The only way out of Recovery mode is to connect to iTunes and restore. If you cannot access the computer you normally sync with, you will lose all of your content, unless you sync to iCloud. With no backup present, your content will be lost.

My lock button is broken and i cant figure out how to turn my phone on with my computer, any tips?

my lock button is jammed and i read somewhere that you can turn your phone on through itunes. i have tried plugging it up to a charger and doing everything you can imagine to get the button unjammed. i cant figure out how to use itunes to get it to turn on, any advice or know of another way?

maybe your power button is pushed down and won't allow it to turn on.
usually when you touch any button on an iphone, it will turn on. wether it's the home or power button.
you should take your phone into the apple store.

My iphone 4s is frozen and my lock button doesnt work and i cant slide to power off the phone. HELP

my iphone 4s is frozen on the lock screen. my lock button doesnt work and i cant slide to power off the phone. It has 100% battery and nothing happens when i plug it into the computer.
My phone screen also is in negative. It is like twitching and ive tried to invert the colors but thats not it. i cant see any apps, pictures , or anything in regular colors. PLEASE HELPPP!

You can't. You'll have to wait until the battery runs out and then recharge the phone. It will restart.
Sounds like now's a good time to get the phone fixed.

My iPod is 4th generation and the version is 4.3.5 well the lock button is jammed and I wanna know if there is a way I can shut down the whole iPod without the lock button

My iPod is 4th generation and the version is 4.3.5 the lock button is jammed and I need to shut it off completely how can I do this without the lock button

You can't with iOS 4. If you update to the latest, 6.1.6 you can use Assistive Touch
Settings>General>Accessibility
To update
iOS 4: Updating your device to iOS 5 or later
Connect the iPod to your computer and update via iTunes
- A 4G to 6.1.6 Requires iTunes version 10.7 or later. For a Mac, that requires a Mac with OSX 10.6.8 or later

Hello 6underwood,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
iOS: Troubleshooting car stereo connections
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3581
If you are experiencing difficulties with the connection between your stereo and device, disconnect the device, and then power cycle the stereo and your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad. When the Home screen reappears, reconnect your device. If you cannot power cycle the stereo, turn the car off and then back on to allow the stereo to power off.
Best of luck,
Mario
