Note retreival from dead phone with broken power button

Hi all - my iphone 4s is dead for good, and my lock/power button on the top is broken. when i try to retreive my notes from the icloud, i get a message saying, "to use icloud notes, create a new email address by turning on notes in your icloud settings using iOs or or OS X" is it possible to retreive my notes although i can't access the actual iphone itself? any help is much appreciated!

If you had ever gone to Settings>iCloud and tried to turn notes syncing on you would have been prompted to turn on Mail to create an iCloud email account first. If you never synced them with iCloud they cannot be recovered unless you backed up your phone to your computer using iTunes. If you did back up to your computer using iTunes, restoring the backup to another iPhone would recover them; or, you could purchase and use 3rd party software to extract them from the backup (like iPhone Backup Extractor).

MacBook frozen with broken power button

i have a 2010 MacBook Pro that has a broken power button, which seems to be a common problem with this model. To turn it on, I have to open the case and short out two pins on the motherboard. Lately, my MacBook has been freezing on me, which leads to a solid black screen. I can move the mouse around but there is nothing to click on. Since my power button is broken, I cannot just hold it down to force a shutdown like usual and I do not have time to let the laptop's battery burn itself out all day so I can start it back up.
Is there anything I can do to turn my Mac off while it's still running? I have the back case open and the fans are going. I'm afraid to poke around in there while it's running.
Thanks.

Please make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service.

Resetting Phone with No Power Button and iPhone Not Backed Up Message Blocking the Slide to Power Off Feature

I've learned how to reset the phone after an iPhone Not Backed Up message cannot be clicked off of, but my Power button is not working and I've been using the greyed out screen button to lock the screen and power off. Now it is not working to turn the phone off for a reset because the iPhone Not Backed Up message is in the way of sliding the power off feature on the screen. Do I have any options?

Try a reset:
Hold the Sleep\Wake and Home Buttons until the screen goes dark and the Apple logo appears

HT1212 resetting phone with broken lock button

I bought a used iPhone 4S (which did not have a passcode on it) with a broken lock button. When I turned on the phone after a full charge, it said to update the OS. So, I did. All of a suddent there was a passcode on the phone. I asked her the passcode and I tried what she told me. Well, I tried it too many times and now the phone is disabled and says to connect to iTunes. I've set up an iTunes account (at the direction of the Verizon store), but cannot figure out how to reset the phone from iTunes. Any advice?

Read the article you were just at: iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong ...
That's how you handle this issue.
If you can't turn off the phone to perform recovery mode because the Sleep/Wake button is damaged, then you won't be able to do anything on the phone with recovery or DFU mode. You'll probably have to replace the device.

Disabled phone with damaged power button

Hi
My iPhone is disabled due to using the wrong password. Now its saying to connect to iTunes. When I connect to iTunes, it is saying to respond in the iPhone. However, there is no response at iPhone. Moreover, the power button is broken. what to do now!!

Hi mashuqur,
If you are having issues with a disabled iPhone, you may find the following article helpful. Note: In order to bypass the password currently on the iPhone, it must be connected to iTunes on a computer that it has previously been synced with prior to the password issue:

How to Reset iPhone with Broken Power Button

Hello
Just recently I've had the problem with my phone, it had a non-responsive black screen and it would not turn back on
If you have this same issue, please follow these steps;
1) Connect your iPhone to iTunes
2) Enable backup of your phone via iCloud
3) Restore your iPhone to the latest backup that you can see, it would be soon; due to the backup being directly to your iCloud wirelessly
I'm not 100% sure if it will fix your issues as well, but it worked for me. Good Luck!

There's no way to reset the iPhone without the power button.

IOS 7.1.2 update froze phone with broke power button

Last night during the update on my for 4S, the phone stopped about 70% through the update. It is now frozen and I cannot do a hard reset due to the power button having been broken for about the last eight months. Has anyone else experienced this and figured out a way to fix the frozen phone that cannot be hard reset?

A hard reboot is reportedly fixing the situation for those who have tried it, after their update stalls. If you are suffering through the same issue, here’s what to do: hold down the Home and Sleep/Wake button for several seconds. Do not let go until the screen goes dark, and you see the Apple logo appear. Release the button combination, and wait for the device to boot back to life.
This should complete the update, so make sure to check through Settings –> General — About, and see that you’re on iOS 7.1.2. If you’re not, just go through the update process again, and you should be good to go.

Restoring disabled iPod with broken power button

My daughter forgot her passcode and I need to wipe/restore her disabled iPod. But the power button is broken. How do I do this?
One suggestion:
I found some similar discussions where lllaass recommends using RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode. I downloaded RecBoot, but couldn't get it to work because "iTunesMobileDevice.DLL is missing". In fact, the instructions for RecBoot say "The program requires LibUSB utility whos setup is included in the zip package", only ... no such utility was included in the zip package. How do I get RecBoot to work?
Any other suggestions?

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

IPhone 4s stuck in lock screen with broken power button

Okay so my power button was jammed 9-10 months ago for unexplained reasons and I've been using the assistive touch since then. My phone will be two in early September so it's fairly old.
My phone is in the lock screen and all I can do is use the assistive touch to make a phone call. I can even hang up but I can't slide to power off or open a text. Is there any way I can fix this?
My phone was just updated to iOS 7.1.2 a few hours ago if that makes any difference in what's wrong.

How about getting the phone's switch repaired?

Unfortunately, you will have to restore your iPhone...
From http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 :
Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup.

Hi kamalkumar,
I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with your iPhone.
The article below will provide some troubleshooting steps for this issue:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 15 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged. Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
I hope this information helps ....
Have a great day!
- Judy
