How to fix a stuck power button?

Put some alcohol on a tissue and start to rub the button for 5~10 minutes. Then start clicking on it. You will directly feel that the button got better. If not, Start rubbing it more. My iPad fell on a concrete floor and it got stuck. I tried this method and it worked very well.

"the metal that keeps the power button in place is most likely bent.

i would open the ipod and try to slightly bent it back - but be careful with that

use the front panel guide to open the ipad, stop at step 8 - the button is now in front of you and you can try to slightly push it outwards

good luck"

"I am not too sure the answer listed above would be best choice since the guide to opening the front panel suggest I don't attempt this its permanent damage to the hinges.

Any other suggestions on how I can ""unstuck"" the power button. Thanks."

"I think markus weiher was right. You need to open the case first in order set it right.

Ridiculous opinion but worth trying:

Maybe you can use SIM removal tool for trying to unstuck the button."

"Hi guys, I just took some pliers (small ones) and manually pulled the power button back out. Please note: this procedure will damage the look of the power button (i.e. the aluminium will get scratches), however helped to make it functional again.

To help the process, I used some good old WD40 oil and let it soak in for a couple minutes. I am not sure wether this was necessary, but it might be useful if you are not able to do the process just with the pliers."
