Power switch doesn't work

I am able to shut down my computer FM2-A85XA-G65 MSI Motherboard but cannot restart using the computer power switch. Have to open the case and press the switch on the MB (has a green lite on it) and then the computer starts and runs fine. I must have set something incorrectly - Any suggestions? Shouldn't have to open case, press a switch on the MB after a shut down.......right? Thanks JackTheBearTexas

Where do you have the wires for the switch plugged in on the MB? You either have a defective switch or plugged the wrong place on the MB, double check the wires and look in your manual for proper place to plug them in. You can check the switch with any cheap ohm meter.

Iphoe 3g power switch doesn't appear to work

I have an older 3g. The power switch doesn't seem to work, so I can't turn it off. Nor can I re-boot it.
Neither holding the power switch nor the home and power switches together seem to have any effect.
Any ideas what to do next?
Thanks

Thanks for this. I tried it but it didn't work . I guess it's off to the menders.

Volume and Power button doesn't work..how do I fix?

My son's volume buttons or the power button doesn't work. Is there something I can do to fix these issues?

Try the following to rule out a software problem.
- 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: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Hi! I bought my iPhone from USA and the power button doesn't work. I have warranty. I will come to UK soon. I wanna learn; can i benefit my warranty in UK?

The warranty is not and has never been International. Warranty and support are only valid in the country of origin. The only exception is for devices sold in the EU where the EU is treated as one country for warranty and support purposes.

The screen doesn't work except on the bottom and i cant reboot it because my power button doesn't work, The screen doesn't work except on the bottom and i cant reboot it because my power button doesn't work

I was in the middle of texting my mom and the screen stopped working! It only stopped working in the middle but i can't even turn it back on because my password numbers won't work when i touch them! I also cannot reboot my ipod because the power button doesn't work! I need help on fixing this problem please!!

Try as best you can with broken button.:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
Place the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs:
For PC
RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
If necessary:
Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
For MAC or PC
The Firmware Umbrella - TinyUmbrella
- 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.

Power adaptor doesn't work

My power adaptor doesn't work at times. I have to jiggle in and hold it in at just the right position, for it to work. Would Apple replace a faulty power adaptor like that? Alternatively, is there anything I can do about it?
Any help would be much appreciated! Thank you.

Apple will typically replace a faulty power adapter if you are still within your one year warranty period and there are no clear signs of abuse. Just give them a call... or, if you have an Apple store nearby, bring it in. If you go to a store, you should bring your MacBook in as well just to be sure that the problem isn't related to an issue on the MacBook side vs. just the charger.

IPhone 5 power button doesn't work

My power button doesn't work and I still have the warranty and I wanted to know that if apple replaces my iPhone will I have to renew my contract with Verizon

Replacing the phone in no way affects your Verizon contract.

My iPhone 5 is disabled and the power button doesn't work. How would I fix it?

My iPhone 5 is disabled and the power button doesn't work. How would I fix it? Please Help

wait it for your iPhone to die then before it turns it plug it into iTunes while holding the home button and it will force it into recovery mode.
will be hard to get the timing right cause u will need to wait for the battery to die and charge up again. Other then that just take it to apple and have them replace the device for a fee.

Hold switch doesn't work

got my new iPod, applied my invisible shield, and the come to find out that the hold switch doesn't work
so i drained the battery completely, recharged it, and it started working. but now, out of no where, it stopped working again. just found it on hold and playing in my jacket pocket.
so this time, i tried doing a software restore and drained the battery once (though i didn't let it sit as long as i did last time before charging again) and its still no go. i'm draining it again, and its nearly dead, but still trys to turn on if you press the menu button even if the hold switch is turned on.
anyone had a similar issue? any ideas?

I guess you may need to get it replaced with new one.
Just visit Apple store, if you live by.
Or you can call Apple.
I saw other people's threads complaining hold switch malfunction.
I believe Apple is currently offering no-question repalcement event on any hardware related 5G iPod/video.

ENVY 7640 - Power Button doesn't work after going to sleep

We print about once a day. It printed the first day without problems.The second day, we were unable to print and went to the printer and pushed the touchscreen - nothing happened.Then we pushed the power button - nothing happened,Then we unplugged and re-pluged the power cord - the printer booted and we were able to print. The third day, we were unable to print and went to the printer and pushed the touchscreen - nothing happened.Then we pushed the power button - nothing happened,Then we unplugged and re-pluged the power cord - the printer booted and we were able to print.The fourth day, we were unable to print and went to the printer and pushed the touchscreen - nothing happened.Then we pushed the power button - nothing happened,Then we unplugged and re-pluged the power cord - the printer booted and we were able to print.Then we registered with this forum and ask this question:HOW CAN WE KEEP THIS PRINTER POWERED ON WITHOUT RE-PLUGGING IT EVERY DAY?

I have the same issue as described at the beginning of this post. As noted by teacher, I have checked and confirmed the green light in back is still lit. I just bought this printer and issues started from the beginning. After I unplug and then restart the printer that way, it turns on and the power button will turn off and then turn on the printer. Its only after its static for a long time and goes into some undefined mode. At that point, the printer no longer responds. How can a company ship a product to customers in which the power button doesn't work? The only reason I bought this printer was becuase my HP Photosmart 7510 randomly gave me printer head error after changing the ink. It was only like 3 years old. I can't believe my new printer is buggy. Your company is on thin ice now. Please help me resolve this problem.

My play and power key doesn't work?

My play and power key doesn't work any ideas?

If none of the 5 R's of troubleshooting were able to resolve the issue, we can be certain that it is hardware related meaning you'll need to take/send your iPod in for service or repair.

IPhone 4 - power button doesn't work anymore! HELP

I have a problem with my iPhone 4.. the power button doesn't work anymore... if I press it, it doesn't response (i can't hear the click, when i push it).. how much does it cost for repair it? my warranty is expired...

So it doesn't do anything at all? The sound clicks are one thing, but if the screen locks, then it works.
It will be $149 if I am correct from other posters.
