TS2634 Smart Cover has stopped locking the screen

When I open my cover the usual lock screen is no longer there. I have a apple brand Smart Cover, I have the option turned on in the settings. I hear the audible click when I close the cover, and the screen does go black. Started about a four days ago, I haven't noticed any excess battery drain as a result. Tried to contact apple about the problem but you may have noticed not the easiest company to contact support wise.

Just the home screen it is not much of an issue but it is a feature that should be working.
You should see the lock screen when you unlock the iPad by opening the Smart Cover.
Try rebooting your iPad and see if it works OK after that.
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.
Something else that might help is to reset all Settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Settings. You will of course have to re enter all of the device settings again including restoring the iPad screen cover lock in the settings.

Hey there our3goldens,
It sounds like you are unable to successfully boot your iPod Touch. I would recommend these steps specifically from the following article, named:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3281
If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
Let it charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged. Learn more about charging iPhone and iPod touch, or iPad.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more aboutrestoring iOS software.
If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling

The I pad 3 has stopped locking. Help please.

7 month old I pad 3 cover has stopped working for some reason. Any guidance out there please.

Try a reset: Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons and don’t let go until the screen goes dark and the Apple logo appears (no data will be lost)
Also try rebooting your router. Unplug it for 30 seconds then plug it back in. Give it a minute to power on then check again.

how do i stop my iphone 4 from doing random commands while talking on calls via the touch screen? Can i lock the screen while talking?

The iPhone has a proximity sensor located on the top of the phone near the earphone speaker that is supposed to automatically turn off the screen when it is close to your face while on a call, to prevent that very thing from happening. If your phone isn't doing that, try cleaning your screen. Also, if you put a screen protector on your phone made for a different model it may lack the cut-out that is supposed to keep it from blocking the sensor. Try removing your screen protector to see if that helps. If it does, get another screen protector.

The top button on my iphone 5 stopped working recently.. Well it works but barely at all if every. Most of the time it only locks the screen if I click on the left side of the button. Also my Camera causes a blue pixelated spot on pictures I take.

The top button on my phone recently stopped working. Well sometimes. Majority of the time if I click it hard enough on the left side of the button it will lock the screen... Otherwise it doesnt work at all anymore. Also the camera appears to be placing a blue pixel on pictures I take. Its annoying. What should I do?

It's completely situational. Without being able to directly compare the "scratch" on the original poster's iPhone with your iPhone, what gaamcc had happen could not be extrapolated to guess what Apple may do in your situation. It will depend entirely on what the Apple technician diagnoses after examining your iPhone. He/she may decide that any damage is strictly cosmetic and didn't have any connection with the problem you're taking your iPhone in for, or he/she may diagnose the problem as stemming from user damage. You'll just have to see when you go to the Apple Store.
Regards.

HT5557 I've always been able to see the clock at the top of the screen in iPad iBooks, but the clock has now disappeared unless I tap at the stop of the screen. How can I get the clock to stay at the top of the screen?

cktan124: I searched around and found the iPad does not have a PRAM.
Anyone else want to guess?
I found many folks here trying to hide of the clock, but I need the clock. I use a PDF on my iPad for my notes when I am speaking in front of an audience. I need the clock so I can kep track of time.

The buttons on the inside the cover has stopped working.
It seems that it does not vary over when I reach the cover.

You can work through the five 5 R's of troubleshooting to rule out any possibility of a software error/glitch.
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
It might also be a good idea to let the iPod's battery fully drain. Then charge it back up and restore it once more in iTunes.
Otherwise, it's likely a hardware issue with the iPod, meaning you'll need to take or send your iPod in for service either via Apple or a third party repair service. Here is Apple's repair pricing.
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/prices/
Note that they don't actually repair the device, but exchange it for one of the same generation, model, and capacity. A third party service will actually replace the damage part for a little less. Google "iPod clickwheel repair" and you should get a number of results to work with.

Email stops synching after 15 minutes (when it locks the screen). Any thoughts?

I got the Droid 2 yesterday. Email account (syncs to corporate email) works fine until the device goes to sleep (or what ever it does after 15 minutes that locks the screen then you have to enter a PIN to wake it up again). Even after entering the PIN, I need to go into the email application for it to synch. Seems to me like it should sync with email irrespective of whether the screen is locked or not.
I've run the Droid Power app and ensured sync is green
Battery mode is in Performance mode (to ensure it would always sync)
Email delivery is set to Data Push ON with a Fetch schedule of 15 minutes; Synch over WiFi Only is NOT checked
I got the newest OS update this morning, but still no joy.
Does anyone have any thoughts on what else I can try?
Thank you,

This may be nothing may than a simple software issue. I recommend performing a hard reset then re-enabling the sync. The steps to perform the hard reset are below:
To reset your phone to factory settings and erase all
the data on your phone, touch Menu > Settings
> Privacy > Factory data reset > Reset phone.
Warning: All data on your phone will be deleted.
(Nothing on your memory card is deleted.)
To reset your phone to factory settings and erase all the data on your phone,
touch Menu
> Settings
> Privacy
> Factory data reset
> Reset phone.
Warning: All data on your phone will be deleted.(Nothing on your memory card is deleted.)
Hope this helps.

Style cover stopped working a week ago - 'unfortunately, style cover has stopped working'

Hi, I got my xperia z3 about a month ago and style cover justa few days after. It was working great at first but since last week it has stopped, it no longer minimses the screen when I shut the lid. The phone must regocnise style cover is there however as when my phone is in stand by and I pen the screen, it goes to the lock screen. However, when in a phone call and I close the lid, the smart cover creates a mini window but doesn't do this under any other circumstance. I am not in stamina mode, my antivirus is turned off, I have linked the cover to the phone (as it was working of course). And when I turn style cover off, and back on, the first time I try to use it I get the 'unfortunately, style cover has stopped working' message.

Do you have a taskiller? nfc on? any other antivirus or battery apps?

Is there a way to have my iPad Mini's Smart Cover open up to the lockscreen instead of unlocking it?

I'm using 32gb iPad mini 1st gen, which is running iOS 8.1.2. I have a Zagg Keyboard Folio Smart Cover.
My "lock/unlock" option in settings is on, and works just fine, but while I want my iPad to lock itself automatically I do not want it to UNlock—just turn the screen on upon opening the device.
I DO NOT want to use a passcode to do this.
I found a thread posted three months ago on Reddit (will link soon) which said this was possible with a "iPad cover unlock" toggle setting in "General," but I cannot find this option in my settings.
Does anyone have any ideas? It bothers me in the most insignificant manner possible, but I would like to change it if I can.
I fully appreciate any and all help! Thank you in advance!

You cannot set it to unlock only. It's both or nothing.
