IPad won't wake/sleep button unresponsive...

Hey, my iPad's safari is frozen...however, when I try to hold the "wake/sleep" button waiting for the "red-slider" to appear nothing happens. Any suggestions??

This involves the sleep button but it just might work so try it.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

    I was using my ipod suddenly its wake sleep button stopped working else all is right i am not able to use my ipod  as by that button only all things can be operated i dont know where to take my ipod for care 

    Hi Atique ur rehman,
    Thanks for your query.
    If the sleep wake button on your iPhone is unresponsive, first try and reset all setting by going to Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings.
    If this does not resolve the problem, I would sound more like a hardware based issue.
    I would recommend that you contact AppleCare so they can run further tests and diagnostics to help you solve your solution better.
    If you can also access an Apple Store Genius Bar or Apple Authorized Service Center, that would be much better.
    Go to https://locate.apple.com/country for further support with your device!
    Thanks,

  • Wake sleep button sticks

    My wake/sleep button sticks on my Ipad 2.  I often have have to tap it several times to get it to respond.  Sometimes it doesn't work at all and I have to shut off the IPad.  I have tried a complete reinstall of the software, and the problem persists.  Anyone have any ideas?

    If the button doesn't work at all, how are you able to shut the iPad off? The sleep/wake button IS the power button.
    If you have restored the iPad and that didn't help, it is probably a hardware problem. Take your iPad to an Apple Store and have a Genius take a look at it.

  • I purchased I phone 5 from USA covered under Apple care  . I'm in India now. Wake/sleep button not working. Apple care here have refused to replace or repair it though it is still under international warranty. Feeling harassed. Can some one help.

    Is there an "APPLE STORE" in India or you just went in a reseller store?
    There is a replacement program for sleep/wake button for free. Just look for an Apple Store and make a reservation at Genius Bar.
    I have an iPhone 5, bought in Dubai U.A.E.
    It is a US model (model A1428) which is different of the model use here in Italy/Europe
    My serial number is qualified for battery replacement program.
    I thought the Apple Store wouldn't repair my phone because I bought it from another country , a different model and it is already out of warranty.
    The Apple store's staff just checked if my iPhone's serial number is eligible for the program and he replaced the battery for free today.

  • HT1430 wont make calls or receive calls or txts and wake/sleep button wont press in

    My iphone wont make, recieve calls or txt and wake/sleep button wont work either

    Restore the phone as New, and do not reload your backup. If you still have a problem with it you have a hardware problem.

  • How to turn on iphone4 when holding home wake/sleep button doesn't work?

    hi
    There is no apple logo on the screen when i holding home and wake/sleep button for more than 15 seconds. I am trying to connect the phone to my laptop, however, there is no reaction on iphone or on laptop.
    Can anyone help me with that?
    Thank you

    Sometimes the reset can take 20 seconds or longer. How long have you held it? I would just hold it until you see the logo. Is the battery charged? If the battery has had a chance to discharge, you will have to plug the phone in to charge. If it gets to a point, it may turn on by itself. I would use the main charger for this. Also, if this method doesn't work, and it is not being recognized by the computer you may need to make an appointment with the Genius Bar as there could be a hardware defect causing this problem.

    FYI, you don't really need to turn it off.  I think mine's been on for more than a year now.

  • Wake/sleep button inoperative

    I have updated the software, but I had this problem immediately before that upgrade. The wake/sleep button doesn't work...most of the time. At the moment I have a blank screen. If I press the button on the top I can see my screen. When I unlock I immediately see my inbox. I can read email, but I can't press the button to get back to the main menu. I've tried restarting. I tried holding the button down for six seconds. I tried, unsuccessfully, to hold down the on/off button and the wake button at the same time...nothing happened. I did go into settings and reset the general settings. I haven't gone to far as to delete all settings and data. I also haven't deleted any content, although my conent is pretty minimal. Thanks for any help.

    I haven't yet tried restoring....just resetting.
    Itunes is on laptop at home, so I am waiting until tonight to give that a try.

  • Iphone 5 slide to unlock is not getting swiped & its Wake/Sleep button not working

    Iphone 5 Wake/Sleep button is not working and the phone 5 is not getting unlock (the slide to unlock is not getting swiped).
    The phone is in warranty and was purchased from US. Apple is denying to provide any kind of support as they say that the Iphone has opened eventhough it has not been opened.
    I must say that the quality of apple has been going down & down after Steve Jobs demise.

    So what would you like us USERS here to do for you?

  • My Ipad will not start up. I had shut off normally with wake/sleep button and now will not start.

    my iAD WONT START AFTER i HAD SHUT IT OFF USING THE SLEEP WAKE BUTTON. iS THERE SOMETHING i NEED TO RESET, AND HOW?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased.
