*Chamber of Secrets: Harry is trapped in the Chamber facing Voldemort and the Basilisk with no chance of escape when all of a sudden a Pheonix flies through the window, blinding the Basilisk and presents Harry with a sword. After defeating the Basilisk, Harry, without any way of possibly knowing how, defeats Voldemort/Tom Riddle by stabbing the diary with the Basilisk fang (in fact, the actual quote reads:

After defeating the Basilisk, Harry, without any way of possibly knowing how, defeats Voldemort/Tom Riddle by stabbing the diary with the Basilisk fang (in fact, the actual quote reads: \"Then, without thinking, without considering, as though he had meant to do it all along, Harry seized the Basilisk fang on the floor next to him and plunged it straight into the heart of the book\").
*Prisoner of Azkaban: Peter Pettigrew escapes, Buckbeak is killed and Sirius Black is sentenced to receive the \"Dementor\'s Kiss\", all hope is lost but then it is revealed that Hermoine possesses a time travelling device that was bestowed upon her so that Hermoine, a Year 9 student could take a few extra classes. They use the time-turner to resolve all of their problems and then never use it again in any of the subsequent books despite its obvious advantages (this is a debatable example of Deus Ex as Hermoine\'s time travelling abilities are hinted at at several earlier points in the story).
*Goblet of Fire: Harry is trapped in the graveyard surrounded by Voldemort and his legions of followers facing certain death with no chance of escape however, when he and Voldemort duel it is revealed that two wands made from the same core cannot be used against each other, Voldemort\'s wand releases the most recent spells it performed which provides a distraction allowing Harry to escape.
*Deathly Hallows: As Harry is preparing to face off against Voldemort at the climax of the story, out of nowhere he reveals to Voldemort that the Elder Wand\'s loyalty transfers upon the defeat, not necessarily the killing, of its previous master. Although Voldemort believes he had killed the true master of the Wand (Snape), in fact Draco Malfoy had earned the Wand\'s loyalty on the night of Dumbledore\'s death by disarming him just before Snape arrived, meaning Snape was never its master. Therefore, Harry is the wand\'s master, even though neither Draco nor Harry ever physically held it. The Elder Wand refuses to act against Harry and the spell rebounds, killing Voldemort. (Whilst the logic behind Harry\'s theory of the wand\'s ownership holds up and makes sense within the context of previously established rules set out earlier in the series, this idea was never suggested as a possible solution to defeating Voldemort in the novel nor at any point prior to this moment was it revealed that Harry even realised that the elder wand was technically in his possession all along).
