My top lock/power button stopped working. It is just stuck and can not be pushed. It happened out of no where I have not dropped my phone or anything it's been in an otterbox the entire time I've had it. It is an iPhone 4 and is still under warranty.

If I make an appt at apple will they fix it with no charge or replace my phone? I have to drive an hour to the nearest store so I don't want to make the trip for nothing.

Apple doesn't fix phones.  They'll replace it on the spot.

  • Miro's power button stopped working

    Suddenly my phone's power button stopped working. I can't lock/unlock the phone nor turn it off :/ Tried to take a screen shot, to restart the device but nothing happened. I dropped the phone only once or twice before months, it hasn't been in touch with water and such. Now I almost can't use my phone unless when I put the phone on charger Did anyone have the same problem? What should I do?

    Haven't heard of this before actually. I would recommend that you send this phone to a service center for repair.

  • On my iPad power button stopped working

    On my iPad power button stops working . Is it any software problem ?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • My power button stopped working all of a sudden now I can't turn my phone on or off, what should I do?

    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/

  • I have an iphone 5c, it is still under warranty and it broke the glass. I'm from Brazil but I bought it in the USA! I wonder if there is any cost to replace the glass, and if you have how much to change in any apple store in miami?

    I bought a iphone 5c in usa but live in Brazil. It is still under warranty and the glass broke. Here in Brazil nowhere exchange just the glass, because this model is different from what came to Brazil. I am very sad, and I wonder if Apple changes the glass at no charge, or if you have any additional cost?

    my friend is going to USA, if I say she can change at any store? so now they are exchanging just the glass for $ 79 U.S. dollars? I would not be possible to speak with some seller to know the right value? would love to know the value before it pays not know whether to send it

  • Power button stopped working

  • A 200 - The 3 little buttons by the power button stopped working

    Win XP, SP2, 1Gb memory, nothing else special.
    Those pretty little buttons have stopped firing up software. The only function seems to work is that the one next to the power button turns the machine on!
    Any Ideas?
    The only recent change is I upgraded Microsoft Office 2003 recently.
    The buttons ARE set to fire software up.

    Hi
    Well, I dont know why it doesnt work but these 3 little buttons are Toshiba Controls.
    Did you try to update the controls driver? You can find it on the Toshiba website under
    http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com and Support & Downloads.
    Furthermore you can check the settings. Im not sure but I think you can find them in Control Panel .
    Bye

  • T500 Power Button Stopped Working

    The power button on my t500 has gone from flaky to completely useless recently.  A few weeks ago, it required several presses to actuate.  Then, it needed to be plugged in to work, and still required multiple presses.  Now it doesn't work at all.
    The LED indicators correctly report the presence of the battery and AC power.  Other than that, the thing is a brick.  Any suggestions on how to move forward with this?

    If the button is defective (and not a motherboard failure) you can replace the button with a new keyboard.  While I can't vouch for the quality of the ones found on ebay it may be possible to acquire one at a low enough price to make the test worth it.  If when you take out your keyboard you happen to have one of the original ones which were recalled due to their flex it may still be possible to get it replaced from Lenovo.

  • The "Clear Recent History" setting under "Tools" suddenly stopped working about two weeks ago and is still not working with version 8.0. I am running Mac OX 10.6.8 on a desktop

    Until a couple of weeks ago I could clear my history under the "Tools" setting.
    Now the only way I am able to clear history is to open the history, select all, and then delete---all manually.

    Dear cor-el:
    I did restart in Safe Mode; however, I DID make change in the Safe Mode restart window, resetting to defaults.
    Not only did this not help, but now it is worse, as my history won't show up when I click "Show All History" so I am unable to clear history even manually.
    Did I misunderstand your suggestion? I've been using Firefox with various versions of OX 10 for years w/o such a problem, and now have so many bookmarks on Firefox that I hate to abandon the browser.
    However, I do not wish to have a permanent, unclearable history.
    Below is a screenshot of how the Safe Mode page appeared.

  • Where can i repair my iphone 5 lock/power button?

    I have a problem with my iphone 5 lock/power button, it works randomly, but the main issue is that my carrier won't agree to repair/replace it under warranty since it has some minor scratches in the sides.
    Here (at mexico) we do not have apple stores so I can't take it there, also apple refuses to take it under warranty because the iphone was purchased directly with the carrier. Any suggestions on how can i solve this issue?
    I think it kinda lame to have the year long warranty just to realize you cant make it valid here at mexico under some dumb technicallity.

    Until you sort out the "dumb technicallity". Use Assistive Touch for perfect Virtual Lock Button. Tap Settings App > General > Accessibility > Assistive Touch > ON > tap new white screen button > Device > Lock. This can even be used to turn iPhone OFF. To turn ON connect to power, charger or USB of computer.

  • Submit buttons stop working with large textarea

    I am using a PL/SQL portlet to display a form that has a large
    text box, using <TEXTAREA></TEXTAREA>, and two submit buttons,
    one for cancel and one for save. The database can accept 2000
    characters but when I fill the text box up beyond around 1400
    characters the buttons stop working.
    You just click away as if no code is behind them. Delete some
    text and they work again! The sizes that cause this seem to vary.
    If it helps I can paste the code in here, but didn't want to yet
    as it will clutter this message.
    Thanks,
    Chris.

    Got there in the end, but not sure if this is a bug or not so
    here is the answer just in case someone else makes the same
    mistake in the future:
    I was using some java script that required a form to have the
    name attribute set. I could not do this with HTP.FORMOPEN so
    changed HTP.FORMOPEN(curl=>'x.y.z'); to HTP.P('<FORM
    action="x.y.z">');
    Now I thought these two commands were exactly the same and most
    of the time they do seem to be, but the problem above goes away
    if using formopen.
    Bizzare!

  • My home button stopped working and now iPad mini will not turn.

    My home button stopped working a few weeks ago, and now my iPad mini will not turn on. I can't restart the iPad, and it will not pop up in iTunes. What can I do?

    Make an appointment with the nearest apple store and they will be able to replace it or give you directions otherwise. Hope this helps

  • My top button stopped working, the physical button is broken.

    My top button stopped working, the physical button is broken. Apple genius' stated they will not fix my phone because there are signs of moisture in my phone. What does that have to do with my broken button, and why can't my phone functioning the way it is supposed to due to an issue that is not my fault?

    wow i dont know who you are getting your phone "fixed" through but its not apple.
    Apple does not charge prices like that.
    If you got it 1 year ago in september, the hardware warranty has expired by now unless you had your device covered by applecare insurance.
    and if it WERE covered by limited hardware warranty, an obvious hardware issue like the power button not working is covered under the warranty UNLESS it was due to accidental damage.
    So if you paid 198 dollars, chances are its because you dropped your phone and thats why the button was not working,.
    ..and even then, the iphone 4 out of warranty/accidental damage replacement fee is 149. not 198.

  • HT4993 My iPhone 4s has tured off and will not turn back on I have only had it a week it has been in the Otter box case the entire time

    My iPhone 4s has tured off and will not turn back on I have only had it a week it has been in the Otter box case the entire time. What do I do to get my phone back on??????

    You can try to press the home button and power button and hold them for around 15-20 seconds. This will perform a soft reset similar to pulling the battery. If that doesn't help you may need to restore it.
