    I know any device could malfucntion but if it costs $40,000 to buy you could at least warn someone of the possible malfuctions. It makes the company look bad when a large amount of your devices act up and you "cant help them" if they dont pay extra. Im just saying.
    Sorry but that makes no sense at all.  How can they possible know what things will possible malfunction on your device?  Anything that they think is highly likely to malfunction they would have addressed in desiging and manufacturing the device in the first place, during development.  They've made and sold many millions of iPhones, and many of them have lasted years without any problems (I know, I've owned such iPhones personally).  So how could they possible know if yours was any more likely to develop any issues than any of those other trouble free ones?
    It's hardware - stuff sometimes breaks randomly.  No amout of money ever guarantees or even reduces the likelyhood of random product failures.
    Take it in to Apple and see about getting it fixed.

  • IPhone 5 sleep/wakes button doesnt work, can I replace it?

    Hi everyone.
    I have an iPhone 5 16gb purchased in US in March 2013, now I see that sleep/wake button doesnt work. Searched on web and found out that is an hardware issue, and booked a meeting to Apple store. I think they will replace it, but the problem which may me doubt is that the iphone is bought in US from my friend, and now I live in Netherlands.
    On Monday i will go in Apple store but not sure what will happen, ideas?

  • My iphone 4s is frozen and my lock button doesnt work and i cant slide to power off the phone. HELP

    my iphone 4s is frozen on the lock screen. my lock button doesnt work and i cant slide to power off the phone. It has 100% battery and nothing happens when  i plug it into the computer.
    My phone screen also is in negative. It is like twitching and ive tried to invert the colors but thats not it. i cant see any apps, pictures , or anything in regular colors. PLEASE HELPPP!

    You can't.  You'll have to wait until the battery runs out and then recharge the phone.  It will restart.
    Sounds like now's a good time to get the phone fixed.

    Let the battery fully drain. After charging for an hour try a reset (may not work).
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Then connect to your comnputer and try to restore.
    - If the screen is still white then it appears yu have a hardware problem and appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable                     
    - Try on another computer

  • I was in the middle of updating to 7.0.3 and Itunes stopped working. Now my phone is stuck in limbo (apple logo with status bar under) My power button doesnt work (of course) How do I get it back to normal?

    I have same issue. I click on the home button and Wake/sleep at the same time for 30 seconds or more and then the phone entered in Recovery mode. It is erasing my content now and installing the update. Let´s see how this ends. I have iCloud, iTunes match, and backups from previos versions, hope I can restore all my content.
    Otherwise I´ll go to the Genius Bar to do a checkup.
    Good luck!
    It did not work the first time... The iPhone4 kept in limbo. Then I did disconnect as suggested above and tried again to enter in Recovery mode.  This second time it works. And after restoring the iPhone4 with 7.0.3, it asked me if I want to recover from backup. I did recover from my latest back up and now it is syncing the content.
