Turning on iPad without power button

My power button on my ipad4 is no longer working. I understand I can turn it off by using assistive touch, but how I can turn it back on again afterwards? I am concerned about this because I am going to be travelling and not using it much so I don't want the battery running down so I can't turn it back on again. Many thanks.

The only other way to turn it on, is to plug it into power. When plugged in, it should automatically turn on.

How to turn iPhone on without power button

My phone is not turning on ...and my power button is off...i tried to plug in to the pc it dosent work.,...please help....my power button does not work and when i plug in many charges it dosent work

The only other way to power on an iPhone would be by plugging it in to charge. If you have tried multiple usb cables and wall adaptors and it is still not powering on then book an appointment at an Apple Store to have the iPhone evaluated.

How to turn on an iphone 4s without power button and also got water damage

how to turn on an iphone 4s without power button and also got water damage?

Actually the rice is not very effective, you really want to use a desiccant. There are products out there that work really well, the silica gel is a much better alternative to rice. See our blog post about what to do next time this happens:

Hello, that's a kernel panic...
http://thexlab.com/faqs/kernelpanics.html
Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X 10.6 Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.

My iphone wont turn on and the power button is not functioning

my iphonw wont turn on and the power button is not functioning

If your power button is broken, there's not much you can do. You could go to an Apple store & do an out of warranty exchange...Apple doesn't fix iPhones, they replace them. But, I wouldn't recommend doing so, as the iPhone 3G was discontinued almost three years ago & won't run most apps in the app store.
You'd be better served by selling it for parts & using the money to purchase a new phone.

Ipad 1 power button not working

I dropped some water on my ipad 1 and it was working fine, except that hte power button stopped working. I let it sit there, and dry off, but to no avail. Then I drained the battery but every 30 seconds the symbol where it shows the dead batter blinking shows up without me even pressing anything. So i think that the power button is jammed, but it looks normal.

Take it into your local Apple Retail Store and have a Genius fix it for you. I recommend scheduling an appointment to the Genius bar so you can avoid wait times. Search your local Apple Store in the search bar on the Apple website, and schedule an appointment.

You can use Accessibility to turn the phone off. That is what you need to do to start to get the phone into Recovery mode. See this support document about getting your device into Recovery Mode. If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

Powerbook Alternate way to turn on and off, Power button malfunctions.

Does anybody know an alternate way to turn a Powerbook G4 17" on and off?
The power buttons malfunctions, it activates by it self, turns off when I am using it, and tries to turn on by it self when is closed! I need to find a shortcut using the keyboard so I can just disconnect the power button. Your help will be highly appreciated!

Shutting down from Apple menu will shut the computer down.
But the power button is a must for turning on the machine. You might find an old original iMac keyboard which has a built-in on/off switch that can actually turn on the computer as well. If you did, that could probably work if you disconnected the on/off switch of the Powerbook.

Power on without power button ?

I consider bying a new 23" display for using it in a setup where I won't have access to the power button anymore. I need to know for sure if the display will power on when I power on the (windows) pc or with the power cord.
Would someone be so kind to test this for me ?
thanks

I haven't used either. The Otterbox is much thicker/bulkier - with better impact/crush protection and easier to assemble. However no belt clip/holster is available and it's much too bulky to carry in a pocket (show stopper for me). It comes with a near useless wrist lanyard. List pice $100
The Lifeproof fre has more color selection (10 vs 3) and unlike the Otterbox it's possible to insert headphones without breaking the waterproof seal (with adaptor). There are belt clip and arm band accessories (extra cost). List price $80
Oddly (or maybe not) the Otterbox sells for less on Amazon...

Any way to boot macbook without power button?

What do you know?
early 2009 2GHz MacBook running 10.6.7

Wrong button. Oh well.
No that's a bit expensive for a macbook. Just need a way to boot up once power button is removed.
It seems to have taken over the macbook & makes it do what it commands.
Or an easy common fix for the powe rbutton would be helpful too.

Turn on imac without power switch

Is there a way to turn on my imac without the power switch? This week I have had to push the button harder to turn on my imac. Today it won't turn on. The button doesn't feel right when I push it. I have a call into a mac repair guy but haven't heard back. I wish I could get into my computer now.
Is there a keyboard combination I could push?
There's a little hole on the back of the computer below the ac connection. Anyone know what that is for. I Bought the computer in 2007.
Thanks for any help you can give me.

mende1,
I went to an Apple reseller and they told me that my imac was something they could no longer get parts for. How odd I bought it in March 2007. My only option is find a used part and have it put in. I called Apple as I used to see if I could get the part number but they don-t have parts lists for that anymore. I found some parts of ebay that look like it but do not if it is for my computer. this is the link. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Apple-iMac-G5-17-iSight-WHITE-POWER-SWITCH-Board-Button- with-cable-593-0156-/120920713792?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1c276faa40 I have no idea if you know about this kind of thing but you seem helpful and have answered so many posts I am trying. The problem is I have info fom my receipt that says my model is 2 ghz intel core duo and this ad says g5 and isight I don't see those numbers on my paperwork but I looked them up on wiki and it seems to be the right year. It is a white computer and it has the built in camera. Mayabe that is the isight. This seller has several ads for the same part number and another says 1.83 ghz and mine says 2 ghz on the receipt. When I used to turn on my computer I remember it saying outloud 1.83 ghz. Just wonderinf if you know. I know I have the white computer that they made from 2004 and 2006 and that it is 17 inches. It has EMC 2114 on the bottom which was the number I used to identify my computer on macfixit and they called it an imac 17 inch 2 ghz.
