HT4993 Lost receipt for Applecare Protection Plan for my iPhone 5 - purchased phone and plan at a Sprint store. How can I find my receipt so that I can register my plan? My lock button is broken now, and I need to use my plan.

I purchased my iPhone 5 and the Applecare Protection Plan a little over a year ago at my Sprint store. I was not informed that I needed to register my Applecare Plan, so I didn't. Now, my lock button on my iPhone is broken and I want to get it fixed or receive a new phone. PeachMac told me they would give me a new phone which would be covered under my Applecare Plan. I logged into Apple to make sure I still had time on my plan, but it doesn't even recognize that I purchased one and I no longer have the receipt for the plan, let alone the phone. How can I register my plan without the receipt? I'm feeling kinda of ripped off by Apple. Shouldn't they keep a record of who purchases these plans?
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Did you register the AppleCare+ plan at the time of purchase? If you didn't, even if you had the receipt, it's too late. It must be purchased and activated within 30 days of the initial purchase of the phone (it's usually done at the time of purchase). If Sprint didn't activate it at the time of sale, you can blame them. Apple doesn't control them.

  • My iPhone lock button is broken..and now the phone is dead and won't turn on! Help!?

    So the lock button on my iPhone 4 is broken, 100%, and the battery died earlier today, when I plug it in, it usually turns on if it has been dead...I tried doing this for hours and nothing happened, I plugged it into 3 different chargers thinking that might be the problem. And since there isn't a apple store close to me, I went to AT&T and they told me I need to do some type of restart (I forget what it's called) it is where you hold down the home and lock button at the same time, but as you can see that wont work since my lock button Is broken. Is there ANYTHING else I can do to fix it!?

    Looks like a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is the Next Step...
    Be sure to make an appointment first...

  • I can't find the help instructions that fit my problem. You said go to the help page and copy the instructions, but I don't see my particular problem listed or the solution to it. I told you I'm no genius; I totally confused.

    This is the error message I get when I log onto my Earthlink email program and onto any website. I don't see any solution to error messages of this kind on the troubleshooting page.

    That is a fault with the 1Click Weather extension. Disable it or un-install it.

  • I reset everything on my iphone 4 and now it won't turn on. It ***** on a loading screen and my lock button is broken. what do i do?!

    There is nothing you can do as you won't be able to reset the device.
    You can wait until the battery goes flat then try connecting it to power so it restarts. If the same issue occours then you'll need to restore it on iTunes by entering recovery mode.

  • Eligible for AppleCare Protection Plan but can't purchase it?

    I have an iPhone 5c that according to both the Apple warranty checker  https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do
    and Apple Store Genius (at Lenox Square Mall in Buckhead Georgia, on 9/27/2014) is eligible for AppleCare Protection Plan (extensible before 10/4/2014).  I was asked to call Apple to purchase the extension.  However, when I called, AppleCare Senior Advisor Jeffrey told me that Apple has discontinued selling the standard AppleCare plan, and he was not able to add it to my phone.
    Anyone else is having the same issue?  Any other way to add the AppleCare protection plan?
    I was dumbfounded.   I bought a phone with the understanding that I could extend the warranty within a year, and Apple just went and changed it without any provision to grandfather the existing customers?  I can tell you that my 5c's value just went down.  So is my opinion of Apple - where is the commitment to their existing customers?
    I really hope this message finds the right person who is in a position to help me and others in similar situations.  This is my second time posting this question today - the first post disappeared, which was not confidence inspiring either.

    Hi panman,
    I think that there was some confusion that occurred on your call. You asked for AppleCare, but only AppleCare + is available for iPhones. Maybe that is what the person you spoke to meant (not sure....)
    I purchased AppleCare + for my iPhone 5s after I had purchased it, and went to the chat to get the info on how to purchase it.
    You are correct, you need to talk with an Apple person to actually purchase it after the fact. Go to this link and try again - and just let them know you want to purchase Apple Care Plus:

  • My iphone 5 chager slot doesnt work my lock button is broken and my screen is cracked i hate this phone may got team galaxy

    My iphone charger slot is broken my lock button is broken and my screen is cracked

    You would need to get a replacement as an Out of Warranty Service due to accidental damage. Now based on your country/region you could either get a replacement through postage or at an Apple Retail Store. Follow the link below for a pricing:
    http://www.apple.com/support/service/
    - select iphone
    - select your country
    - select warranty and service pricing
    Choose the last option and it will give you a price based on your country and iPhone. Remember the cost shown includes a postage fee so look below the prices and how much the postage fee is as this would not be included in the cost if the replacement was done at a store.
    Hope this helps

  • HT201412 My lock screen is frozen. It will not let me slide to unlock or anything. I can't power it off because my lock button is broken and I can't do the assistive touch thing? Help!

    My lock screen is frozen! It will not let me slide to unlock or touch the screen at all. I can't power it down either because the lock button is broken. A friend of mine said I might need a new Digitizer? Is there anyway I can avoid that? Pleasae Help!

    I am having the SAME exact problem! Except instead of lock button broken it's my home button so I can't do the whole "put in recovery mode" deal. My screen only says "tap the home button 3 times" and it has my screen locked until I hit the home button but since it is broken I can't get in my phone at all. I have all of my work info in my phone so I'm screwed and can't get any help. PLEASE let me know if you find a way around this...!!!
    Thanks!

  • My iPhone 4s shut off and won't turn back on? My lock button is broken, so I can not reboot it.

    As I said, my lock button has broken so I can not use that to reboot it. My iPhone was charging when it shut off, i locked it and walked away from my phone for a few seconds and when I came back to unlock it, it was completely unresponcive. I use my phone to talk to all my friends and listen to music, please help asap. Also, I tried plugging it into my computer and it just won't do anything. Is my iPhone literally just, dead?

    You can try and let the phone sit for a period and then try connecting it again to the power source. If that doesn't work, I cannot think of another solution. The only way to reset the phone in a case such as this is to old the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. However, since you say the sleep/wake button doesn't work, then there is no alternative. I'm puzzled though when you say that you locked the phone and walked away. If the lock button doesn't work, how did you do that?

  • My iPhone won't turn on and my lock button is broken so I can't do the lock/home button restore, what do i do?

    My Iphone isn't responding to anything, and I can't do the home/lock button restore becasue my lock button is broken and I've been using assistive touch. Any ideas as to how to turn it back on?

    Try plugging it into the charger. Unfortunately, without a functioning sleep/wake button, it will be diffucult to do a number of troubleshooting steps. See if it will start that way. If not, you may need to leave it for a period to see if the battery will die out and then plugging it in may restart it. Otherwise, you will need to take the device to Apple to see about repair/replacement.

    Hi, to get your iPhone  4 back to normal, here're two ways for you.
    1.  Use Dr.Fone for iOS. The free trial version can fix iPhone screen of death. The free trial version can do that, you don't have to pay.
    Just download and install this software on your computer and connect your iPhone 4 to computer with a USB cable. When it detects your iPhone 4 is abnormal, click Restart the device to get your iPhone 4 to be normal.
    2. Use iTunes to fix it.
    Step 1. Make sure that the latest iTunes is installed on your computer.
    Step 2. Plug into a USB cable to connect your iPhone4 to computer.
    Step 3. Press and hold the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button at the same time for about 10s.
    Step 4. 10 seconds later, release the sleep/wake button. But continue to hold the home button until a message comes out, saying "iTunes has discovered an iPhone 4 in recovery mode, you must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes".
    Step 5. Click your iPhone 4 in the left sidebar to show the device control panel on the right. Then, click Summary.
    Step 6. Go to Backups section and click Restore Backup.... In the drop-down list, choose a backup file and restore to your iPhone 4

    You need to get the on/off button repaired.
    You can try connecting the iPhone to a power source which should power the iPhone on.

    You have to make an appointment with the genius bar at your local Apple Store for an evaluation.

  • My lock button is broken and my iphone will not power back on when I charge it, how do I turn it on?

    My iphone will not power on when I plug it into charger in the wall, computer, or car. My lock button is broken and I do not know how to turn it back on. My phone did not die it just went black and has not been dropped, cracked, or gotten wet. What do I do?

    Normally one would do a reset, however without the lock button, which is the sleep/wake button, you cannot do a reset. You could always wait until the battery dies to see if it will start when plugged in, but the sleep/wake button is an integral part of the phone and needs to work to do a number of functions. I suggest that you make an appointment at the Genius Bar to get it fixed.
