Someone please help!
Try holding your finger on the app until it wiggles. Do you have the option to X out of it? If not, we may be able to get it to stop through a different way, but it will take some time.
Plug in to iTunes. Select your device. Click "Back Up Now" to create a back up of your phone. Once the back up is done, click "Restore Back Up." This will essentially force your phone to restart. It's going to just restart and restore itself to what you just backed up. It's a really round about way to do it, but since your button is broken, it may be the only way.
How long have you had your phone? Have you contacted Apple Support to do some troubleshooting and see if you're eligible for a repair? 1-800-APL-CARE.
- Why does my iphone stop working after I change the date and how can I stop it from doing that? I changed the date to this day 5 years ago so I could extend my spotify premium trial (this actually works) but then me texts weren't sending or receiving same with BBM and Facebook and literally every other social network app and I couldn't connect to the App Store so I changed it back to auto and everything works but I want to stay on my spotify free trial please help
- When I download an app on the Ipad the same app starts downloading on the Iphone 5? Is that suppose to happen? Does that mean I don't have to pay for Minecraft Pe twice if I want them on the two devices?
- When ever I download an app on my iPhone the app says waiting? Whenever I download an app on my iPhone 4, the app pops up on the home screen as just a grey box and it says "waiting". I've tried leaving it alone for a while but nothing changes, I've also tried turning it off and back on but that's not helping either. How do I get it to stop "waiting"? Tapping it doesn't work and when I hold it and try to delete it there's no X on the corner like all the other normal apps.
- If I download a payed app on my mac, can I download it for free on my iPhone? Just wondering=) Its a diary app. "My wonderful days". Not that it matters but I thought maybe because the entries are on icloud
