Slide to unlock not working but I can slide to answer calls (power button broken) HELP!

Can anyone please help? 24 hours before my upgrade is due and my iPhone 5 has decided it won't let me slide to unlock...I can slide to answer a call no problem weirdly so Im thinking it isn't a fault with that part of the screen? My problem is compounded by the fact that the power on/off button hasn't worked in a while. this hasn't been a major issue until i am now trying to at least back up and then restore my phone. I can't enter the passcode to restore it! And i can't try lots of the suggestions I've seen which is holding the home and power button together as my power button doesn't work. I can't even sell the phone as faulty at the moment as i have no way of getting all my data off it!

Take the device to Apple to address the hardware issue.

Try this.
Reboot 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

If you have not taken the iPod apart, Apple will exchange it for a refurbished one for $99. You can do it an an Apple store
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Slide to unlock not working

Ipod 2nd Generation, Slide to unlock is not working - Ipod is not reponding to "sliding". I've tried a soft reset but it still won't slide to unlock.

You probably encounter the same problem then mine. The problem is not hardware but software due to a bad update by Apple. MIne was working perfectly... I repeat perfectly... No bugs and no problem at all and just after I decided to update the OS it stop working!
I did try all those tricks... restore, factory restore,... even go to the App Store where they tried to push me to buy a newer product or to pay for a fictional repair since the issue is not physical. It doesn't have a scratch or even a single drop of liquid... It was a careless update. A way to push people like me and you to throw their old iPod Touch into the garbage. The only solution will be to find an older OS but it seems to be impossible to find.
For sure I will never buy a Apple product again !

Possibly the flex connector of the charging dock, flex ribbon (#4) is not perfectly seated down to the logic board.

My i phone 4 screen went completely black and screen will not work but i can screenshot and other buttons vibrate and make a sound the screen just dosent respond.

my home button was not working and I was in my settings looking for the advert touch or whatever it is called and my phone went completely black. al the buttons worked such as screen shotting (it made the sound) and turning on my ringer, the screen just didn't respond. I left it alone and plugged in over night and it hasn't done anything different. I also plugged it into my computer and it still did nothing. what can I do to resolve this problem?

Try a Reset...
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.
If no joy... Try a Restore...
1: Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.
3: If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try using the steps in this article to force the device into recovery mode.

Network diagnostics - can't connect through Ethernet...ps3 and old iMac work but I can't get this macBook online...help!?!!

Having a problem out of nowhere really getting this MacBook back online through Ethernet.....it's not the modem because my old computer gets online as well as the ps3.....I think it has something to do in network diagnostics but I can't get it.
Thanks!

hi there-
to determine which network port is being used go to the blue apple > system preferences > network and then on the show scroll menu select "network port configurations". then make sure the card is detected there, select it, and then deselect any unused network ports. (the rest of them). [ 8 ) ]

My Iphone 4s earpiece is not working that good, can't hear the caller too good, any suggestions? Has this happened to anyone?

Does anyone have Suggestions on improving my earpiece? Can;t hear the caller when I call someone or they call me?

I have had this happen to me on 3GS, 4 and 4s. Usually the solution is one of the following:
1- If your volume indicator says headphones even though they are not plugged in, then:
Stick your headphones into the headphone jack and then remove quickly.
2. If that does not work Power your phone off. Then when restarting Reset the phone by pressing the home button and the power button at the same time until the apple logo appears.
3. Make sure you have not chosen to send audio to an Airplay device such as Apple Tv.
Hope one of these works for you

Iphone 4 speakers not working, but I can use phone to make calls & hear

Hello, please can anyone help me? My iphone 4 has stopped ringing out or making any other sound through speakers, although I can still use it to make calls & can hear people when I phone them. I've tried resetting it & also powering it off but it has made no difference. Does anyone have any solutions that may help me please?

Check to make sure the mute switch is not in the mute position.
You can also check to see if Do Not Disturb is on or off.

Try Restoring it in iTunes. If that does not work you will probably need to get it serviced.
