    If not caused by accidental damage, the iPod Touch includes a one year warranty. If your iPod Touch remains under warranty, you can call AppleCare or make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby. If the iPod Touch remains under warranty you open the iPod Touch youself or by a 3rd party, doing so will void the warranty. If you live near an Apple Store, make an appointment to see if the store can get the button unstuck. If not under warranty, there won't be any charge for this.

  • Sleep wake button is stuck - what to do

    sleep wake button is stuck in a pressed down mode - how may I correct this? Help!

    Schedule an appointment at your local Apple Store/Genius Bar and see if there is anything they can do to help.  I wouldn't risk trying to resolve it yourself at this point just yet.

  • My sleep/wake button is stuck, out of warranty options?

    Alright, my iPhone 4's sleep/wake button became stuck last Sunday, and hasn't popped out at. I have an appointment on Sunday with the Geniuses but since my phone is out warranty, I'm expecting my wallet to take a hit. Are there any options available in relation to repairing my phone instead of paying $200 for an out-of-warranty replacement?

    you can always google to see if there's an iPhone repair shop near you and see what they charge.....

    This happened one time before but a day later it was magically on again!

    Sounds like it's time to bring your phone to Apple for evaluation

  • The sleep/wake button is stuck

    How do you unstick the button?

    Hello tgn1222,
    The following article has a few things that you might try in order to get your sleep/wake button working again.
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting

    Sleep/Wake button will not lock or unlock iPhone
    To lock the phone, press the Sleep/Wake button. Note: By default, if you don't touch the screen for a minute, iPhone locks automatically.
    To unlock iPhone, press the Home button or the Sleep/Wake button, then slide the slider.
    If either of the above steps don't work, try turning iPhone off and then on again.
    If the iPhone will not power off, reset it.
    Try to lock or unlock the phone.
    Cheers,
    Allen

  • My sleep / wake button is stuck down and requires a great deal of force to unlock / lock the my iphone 4. help?

    The lock button is stuck dont and wont come back up. i can still lock the iphone 4 but it requires alot of force and i am afraid of breaking it. i have only had this phone for about 4 months and have had a case on it since day one. Someone please help!!

    If there is Warranty or AppleCare make Genius reservation or set up Service and take or send to Apple for resolution. If no coverage, you can use virtual Lock Button. Tap Settings App > General > Assessibility > Assistive Touch > ON > tap new white screen button > Device > Lock Screen. This can even be used to turn OFF iPhone, by holding down on it. To turn iPhone ON, connect to power, charger or USB of computer.

  • 6th gen nano- sleep/wake button stuck- how to repair

    My 10 month old 6th generation nano is not working- seems like sleep/wake button is "stuck".  is there some way to repair this?

    Hello Ryan,
    Since it sounds like you have already tried all the usual and available troubleshooting techniques, I would make a trip to your local Apple store/Genius Bar and have them take a look at it.  Your iPod is still under Apple's 1 year warranty that cover any defects (but not accidental damage!).

  • Sleep/Wake button stuck but they wont replace for free?!

    So my sleep/wake button is stuck and I went to the apple store, but they are making me pay $199 to replace it when I still have warranty!  I don't understand they say I have a speck of pink of the LCI but no corrosion which means they should still be able to replace it for free, is anyone else having problems and if so how do I get my phone replaced for free?!

    i have an exactly same problem...  The phone just didnt ever touch water!!

  • IPhone Sleep/Wake Button Stuck

    My sleep wake button is stuck. There is nothing else wrong with the phone. I know it is not covered under the warranty because it was dropped, however, I am extremely annoyed to find out that after not being offered insurance for such an expensive item, (I will not even get started on how I do not comprehend that it does not exist)they do not offer any services to fix the phone either. It is really irritating to pay so much money for a product and not recieve any help when you call the company. I was on the phone for 2 hours today and was told there was nothing they could do. I even offered to pay for them to just fix the button, but that was not an option. Clever solution to refunding early owners $100.

    AT&T does not offer insurance on any of its high end smart phones.
    AT&T does not offer any repairs on the product. Apple handles all repair services. They will fix the phone for you, but the fee is substantial ($250 for the 8gb phone).

  • SLEEP/WAKE BUTTON STUCK

    Does anyone have any experience of the sleep/wake button becoming stuck?  One minute it was fine, the next it is jammed and I can't switch the phone off.

    Amazingly, the problem kinda just fixed itself. I left it alone, didn't use it for a good long while (couple months), and then it just started working right and not acting up at all. Hasn't done it for months and is working fine.
    Weird.

  • Stuck sleep/wake button

    Hi everyone. I have an iPod for almost 6 months and in its second month I cracked its screen. But it was a really small crack, it didn't even bother me in. It was only there on the right bottom side and I was happy with it.
    Last week when I was changing the song suddenly the sleep/wake button was stuck.
    I knew they would change it for free because of the warranty. But they say since the screen is cracked, ipod is out of warranty and I have to pay 150$ for replacement of the sleep/wake button+the screen. It is ridicilous.
    I really need help.
    I can't

    I dropped my phone and the button became stuck as well. The phone would begin to go into reboot mode as soon as it went to "sleep". I went to the Apple Store and they explained that it would cost the usual $250.00 to fix.
    SHORT TERM FIX: In my case, I turned off the auto-lock option and left the screen on all the time. My phone only went into reboot mode when it went to sleep. This kills the battery life (and I carry the charger with me 24/7) but the phone still works. This is a short term solution. With 3G iPhones coming out soon (hopefully next 2 or three months) I did not want to spend $250.00 on repair. New Apple products are hard to predict so I probably wrong but I did not want to spend that much when I could get a new (and probably much better) phone down the line.

  • Sleep/wake button of ipod nano 6g STUCK!!

    I've had an ipod nano 6g for more than a year, and it worked perfectly untill a cupple of days ago when the sleep/wake button got stuck!! i've been reading about this and apparently it has happened to a lot of people, but they have been lucky to have the problem while warranty is still efective. My problem is that my warranty allready expired, so apple will not change it, and i don´t know if the'll even fix it.
    Can anyone help me with this, does anyone have the same problem?

    Same problem. Many, many people are having this problem. And at the moment, if the warranty has expired, you have to pay to have it fixed. A man at the Ginza Apple Store explained it to me today. Hopefully they'll recall it or allow some sort of exchange program, because this is a major problem with this device.
