HT201401 Sleep/Wake button is not working. Do you have any suggestions how can I fix this?

Hi, I bought an iPhone5 in Sydney on 17 Sep 2012 (through Apple online store-Weborder no. W425361396) while I was studying there. Now I already went back to my home country (Thailand). And I got a problem with my iPhone5. The Sleep/Wake button is not working. Do you have any suggestions how can I fix this?
Looking forward to hear from you.
Best regards,
Apiradee

You will have to return the iPhone to Australia .The iPhone warranty is not international .
Warranty and service is only provided in Country of original sale
You could try a reset followed if required by a restore initially with backup and then again if required as new
If that makes no difference it will be a hardware issue and you will have to return it to Australia

  • TS4036 My ipad has a message that iCloud back up has not occurred in 2 weeks.  The OK button is not working thereby freezing my iPad.  How do I fix this?

    My ipad has an iCloud Backup message stating "This iPad hasn't been backed up in 2 weeks."  The OK button isn't responding thereby freezing my iPad.  How can I fix this?

    A reset should help: Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off button at the same time for approximately 10-15 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears release both buttons and await restart.

    I downloaded the new version of Firefox and it will not work with my yahoo toolbar anymore.It worked fine until I updated to the new version. I have went back to the old version 16.0 and now it keeps saying my version is out of date. How can I fix this problem and get the new version to work with my yahoo tool bar?

    For starters make sure you have the latest Yahoo toolbar.

  • My macbook air does not work, saying i have no memory, how can i fix it?

    The computed showed a message, saying that i have no memory enouth, the day after when i turned it on appeard that beggining messages, then anything else, even the dock. i dont know how can i delete my archives and stuff, somebody can help me?

    Does it say hard drive space or application memory? Because if it is application memory then deleting items won't work. You'll have to open up Activity Monitor in Applications > Utilities and sort each process according to memory. Then you will see what is using up all the resources.

  • TS3682 The home button is not working on my iPhone 4?  How do I fix it

    The home button is not working on my iPhone 4?  How do I fix this problem?

    Make a Genius Bar appointment at your nearest Apple Store and do an out of warranty replacement for $149 USD, or use a third party repair site such as http://www.iresq.com, or replace it yourself, http://www.ifixit.com.

  • HT201401 How can i reset my iphone if the Sleep/Wake button does not work?

    My camera shuts off every time that I try to take a picture. I would like to reset my IPhone in order to try and solve the problem. My Sleep/Wake button does not work.
    How can I reset my IPhone without the Sleep/Wake Button working?
    Thanks for the help.

    When pressing the sheep/wake button, the iPhone's screen is not turned off if on and does not turn on if off, and pressing and holding the sleep/wake or on/off button does not bring up slide to power off?
    And you can't do a reset by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release?
    If so and there is no change after restoring the iPhone with iTunes, make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby since more than likely there is a hardware problem.

  • IPhone top sleep/wake button is not working & Apple Logo screen at startup

    I have the original iphone. I have two problems, both just happened tonight at the same time. For seemingly no reason just my iphone external top sleep/wake button is not working. I tried powering the phone off and back on. I tried resetting my iphone, and restoring it. I made sure my Iphone software is up to date. None of these remedies have fixed the button. The button doesn't look broken, it pushes in and out, it just doesn't work anymore.
    Second problem is, after I power my iphone off and then back on, the Apple logo screen will continue to flash on and off indefinitely. The only way to get my home screen to appear is to connect my iphone to my computer. Then it wants to sync. After syncing it then asks if I want to "power off" or "cancel". Huh, why does is it doing that? To turn my iphone off I am pressing my Home button down until it shuts off, since I can't power off with the top black button. Is that the reason my phone is having the second problem, because I am powering off with the Home button? Could it be my second problem is not a problem?
    My iphone 1 year warranty is over. I can't call Apple Care, there is no apple store near me. I need a solution I can do at home myself. Please help. Even if you think the answer is obvious please suggest it to me. Before tonight nothing was wrong with my iPhone. It all started after I let my 6 and 7 year old nephews play with Google Maps on my phone for like 10 minutes - supervised. I consider myself to be a pretty Apple tech savvy guy, yet I can't figure out if they broke my iphone somehow, nor can I fix these two problems. Please help!

    Jason,
    I'm afraid I have good and bad news. Apple sent me a new original iphone. So that takes care of me but does not take care of the issue for so many people like you. I do not know if you can purchase the Apple Care plan at this time. Look into that. It really is worth it. Apple products require Apple technicians in the rare case the breakdown. Apple did not offer me an explanation of how they'll fix my phone or even saying why they sent me a new one. I synced it with Itunes and all my personalizations and apps are loaded back on it. It's like my old phone only shinyer and probably going to last me longer than the old one.
    I found out Apple Care covers the Iphone for 2 years past it's purchase date. So I would think that you could buy Apple Care even if you had it for like a year. Then it would at least cover you until the 2 year mark, which after that we're on our own(?). Please let me/us know if you were able to buy Apple Care protection and if they fixed your problem. I am impressed they got me a new phone so fast. I still love Apple.

  • HT1430 I am unable to reset my phone as the sleep/wake button does not work????

    My sleep/wake button has stopped working.  I have checked the support site and it states to reset but I can't as the button does not operate.  Do I need my phone repaired?

    Yes. If something is broken, you generally have to get it fixed before it will work again.

  • Sleep/Wake Button Weird - Not Working?

    My brother kicked my iPod touch 2nd gen off of the couch and I didn't see how it landed, but the Sleep/Wake button is not working now and acting weird. It seems sticky and doesn't click easily, but when I press it, it doesn't lock the screen at all. Sometimes if I click it multiple times in quick succession it gives me the option to turn it off, or it will give me the same option to turn it off if I just press it once. Does that mean it is sticking inside the iPod? Because you normally have to hold it down to turn it off, but I'm only clicking it once.
    Snd once, after clicking the Sleep/Wake button many times without anything happening, I pressed the home button, but the screenshot had been activated somehow. I ended up taking about 30 screenshots of my calculator before a boy in my Geometry class fiddled with it a little and I finally got back to Home. What does that mean?
    Will Apple help me? What should I do? Can it be fixed? I just got it for Christmas, about 5 months ago, so my warranty is still going.

    It may be a mechanical problem, it may be software. Do a restore through iTunes and see if the problem persists.
    As for your warranty, if your touch shows any signs of "abuse" they won't repair it under warranty. You can try taking it to your local Apple store and see where you get. Just be carefull about what you tell the Genius.

    The wi-Fi button on my IPhone 4S is greyed out and will not turn on and therefore I am not able to receive wi-fi.  How can I fix this problem?

    Follow the steps in the article below to try and resolve the issue:
    iOS: Wi-Fi settings grayed out or dim
    If after all the steps the issue remains I'd suggest to book an appointment at an Apple Retail Store to have your iPhone evaluated or contact AppleCare for assistance.
    Hope this helps

  • My Iphoto does not work properly, after downloading Mavericks.  How can I fix it ?  loading Mavericks

    My Iphoto does not work properly after downloading Maverick. How can I fix it ?

    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    what do you mean by not working properly? Explain in detail.
    what fixes have you tried?
    where is your library located?
    did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    what type of Mac?
    how much free space on your boot drive?

    Click once on the sleep/wake button to ignore the caller and the call will eventually

    You don't in the condition it's in. You will either have to get the phone replaced by Apple or pay a 3rd party to repair it.
    there seriously should be more than two ways to solve this other wise apple is useless and we will never buy another apple product.
    Seriously? It's physically broken!

    Try resetting:

    DVD drives read the bottom of the disk, not the top. Smooth out the paper & try again.
