Does anyone else's iPhone 5 lock button not work?

I got my iPhone 5 when it launched (pre-ordered) and I love it. I haven't had any major issues at all, until recently. My lock button has stopped working completely. No amount of pressure or repeated pressing of it will make it work. I do not have AppleCare, but I do have it under warranty through my carrier (Verizon). Does anyone know if I can take it to an Apple store to have it fixed or am I likely stuck with it?
Thanks for the help in advance,
DJ

Are you sure? The nearest store is a bit of a hike from where I live. It'd be worth it, I just want to make sure. I guess I can always call first. Any idea when the warranty runs out?

  • Anyone else's iPhone 4s speaker not working after update to iOS 6.1?

    My speaker does not work after updating the software to iOS 6.1. No sound for incoming calls or texts, no speakerphone, no siri, no music or any sounds played from apps. Headphones still work as does anything plugged into the headphone jack. I've check all my settings - everything is correct. I've rebooted and restored settings several times, I've docked it - nothing works.
    Anyone else having this problem? Did anyone have this problem and were able to fix it? Does anyone know if Apple is aware and will be sending another update to fix it? I really don't think it's a hardware problem. Phone is in immaculate condition and never dropped or spilled on.

    As stated...

  • Anyone else's iphone rebate number not work?

    Just got back from the Apple store buying an imac.
    I tried to use my three $100 rebate codes, but only 2 worked.
    The Apple guy said that has happened a lot, and to just email Apple about it and they will get you another code...
    Well, he said the email address was on the rebate form page, which it isn't... now I have to wait until monday to talk with someone about it.
    Soooooooooo, anyone else have this problem?

    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar - http://apple.com/retail/geniusbar and let them decide.

  • IPhone Lock Button Not Working

    I've been searching on uTube, etc trying to find a way to get this un-stuck, but it doesn't seem to be working.  I've only had my phone since October 2012, would this be under warranty, or would anyone at Verizon be able to assist me?

    If there is an Apple store near you, take the phone there.  It's been less than a year, so if the phone was purchased new, it's still under warranty.  Next option is to take it to a Verizon store (corporate store) but if they see any evidence of other physical damage or water exposure, you will likely be out of luck.  An Apple store is your best bet.

  • Lock button not working for iPhone4

    Hi All,
    My lock button not working from last 2months, I am using assistive touch for time being.
    I bought my mobile in UK 1year back, currently i am staying in India.
    My real problem is, recently i visited apple store. The guys in the store are saying, it is against to their law to serve or repair mobiles which were bought in other country..
    I think this is rediculous.. Just i need some information how to fix it or how to contact the correct person regarding this POOR service.
    Thanks
    Rajesh

    No. The warranty is only valid in the country of purchase. All service for iPhones in UAE is provided by the supported carriers. You can find a list here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1937
    If you did not purchase it from one of the carriers listed, then you probably purchased an illegally imported gray market phone.
    Check Settings>General>About. What does it say for Model #?

    My loudspeaker and lock button not working and my warranty has expired!!! I do not know what to do!!!! HELP PLEASE!!

    Those are hardware issues. You can try all of the software troubleshooting if you want. Restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new. If that does not work, then your only option is to pay someone for something. The decision is up to you, but I've provided the options.

  • IPhone 5 lock button not working at all. If I'm in the one year warranty still but don't have apple care will I have to pay to get it fixed or will it be covered

    I have a iPhone 5 and about a month ago my lock button stopped working. It takes me about ten tries to power it back on or to lock it. If I'm still in my one year warranty will I have to pay to get it fixed? I didn't purchase apple care though so I'm wondering if it's going to cost me to get it fixed or if it's still covered because of the one year warranty? Thank you!

    If it's due to a manufacturing defect, the warranty will cover it. If it's due to accidental damage, it'll cost to get it fixed unless it happened during an authorized repair.

  • HELP!! Does anyone else have their entire keyboard stop working with photoshop?

    This varies for me but most of the time whenever I use Photoshop CC and CS6 my ENTIRE keyboard stops working. Not just the shortcuts but even in other apps too. The only keys that remain functional are the fn, control, option, shift, delete, all of the F keys, and command keys. I am not sure if this is due to me not having enough ram (I have 4 GB). Does anyone else have this problem and if so what did you do to fix it?

    I also have this issue and it's driving me bonkers.
    Latest Photoshop CC, up-to-date.
    Win 8.1 Pro
    Das Keyboard Pro on USB3 port.
    Issue only with Photoshop - no other applications.
    I have tried a brand new machine and a brand new keyboard (replaced my main workstation recently), so I know for sure it's not an issue with any of my hardware. I also know for sure that it's not an issue belonging only to one OS version, as I had the same issue with win7pro and win8.1pro.
    For me the issue is that ALL keyboard keys stop responding completely in Photoshop until I hit the Windows key or otherwise maximise/bring to focus any other application, such as desktop or Outlook etc. Then I immediately bring Photoshop CC back into focus and the keyboard works again. Then after a few moments/clicks/commands the keyboard dies again.
    The issue is 100% local to Photoshop CC, is not related in any way to Wacom drivers (I don't have any installed and don't use a tablet), is not related only to one OS and is not hardware related, as far as I can tell. Once again, I've had these issues on-and-off across 2 different machines with different keyboards.
    I'm wondering if it's related to Teamviewer, since TV creates focus issues with certain other applications/games etc. I will try with TV closed and see if the problem goes away.
    All CC apps are up-to-date.

  • IPhone lock button barely works...

    Hello,
    I've been using my iPhone 4S for like 6 months now.
    But since yesterday, my lock button barely works.
    Can I repair this without opening it or is it better to go to the local Apple Store?

    Take it to the Apple Store. If the device is under warranty Apple will replace the device do to hardware failure. I've had Sleep/Wake buttons fail in the past and Apple claims it's not a repairable part.
    Hope that helps

  • Lock button not working + still have warranty. What do I have to do?

    Hello!
    Yesterday my lock button stopped working. I still have my warranty but the problem is I live in Belgium and there is no Apple Store there. Is there any way I can get my phone repaired without having to go abroad? I'm now using Assistive Touch but it just doesn't feel the way it should...
    Greetings & thanks!

    To get any iOS device repaired much be done so in country of where th device was purchased. So if where you live is where you purchased the device then contact Apple Support whcih is given for your area of livinging.
    If the iOS device was not purchased where you live, then willl need to figure out how to go about getting to where the iOS device was purchased to get repair done for it.
