Sleep/Wake button doesn't work

I just got my iPod touch yesterday, and the Sleep/Wake button worked for a while... but then after syncing the touch to my computer a second time, the sleep/wake button doesn't work anymore. I can't put the iPod in sleep mode, and I can't turn it off either, and I can't do a hard reset (or whatever it's called when you hold both the buttons down). I've reset using iTunes and through the iPod itself, and it isn't solving the problem.
Any ideas?

HT1430 I would like to reset the iphone but the sleep wake button has stopped working

how to reset the phone without erasing my data when the sleep wake button has stopped working. the phone is frozen

"Why didn't iCare staff which is Apple's do something..."
They did. They told you what you should do to get the problem resolve. Too, "iCare" is an AASP and provides service for Apple's products, but the staff is not employed by Apple. It's not an "Apple Store".

My sleep/wake button is sinking in so its not working is there any way to turn my ipod off

nope. If your under warranty apple will cover it. If not find a repair shop. You can try looking for an app but if it turns off then you cant turn it back on!

If a reset doesnt fix it (which it wont - that is likely a hardware issue), then get warranty service.

You can't. Either get your phone fixed at a third-party repair shop, or go to an Apple store & they will replace your phone for US $199.

There isn't anything you can do about that except to get the sleep/wake button fixed. It is an integral part of the phone and is used for troubleshooting steps as well. Using a device without one is just waiting for trouble. However, if you want to, you can go to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn on Assistive Touch. Then to lock the phone, tap on the Assistive touch button, tap on Device, then tap on Lock screen.

HT1430 My sleep/wake button doesn't work.

My sleep/wake button doesn't work. I cannot believe that there is no alternate way to reset my ipod? My wifi is not working (it's "greyed out") and one of the restore suggestions involves restarting it.

Just try :
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem.
If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

Well, the sleep/wake button is also the power button. If you cannot use it to turn on, then you cannot use it to perform a reset by holding it and the home button together until you see the Apple logo.Those are the only two ways to turn the device on. You can try letting the battery go completely dead and then trying to plug it in. After it has charged for 20-30 minutes, the device may come back on. But, without the sleep/wake button, there is no other way to turn the device on or off.

My iPod touch's sleep wake button isn't working. How do i fix it?

One day, my iPod touch's sleep wake button stopped working. Now i cannot lock it or turn it off or on. I already tried every step in the troubleshooting and the problem was not resolved. I did take it with me to work out that day. Could it have water damage from my sweat? The main problem is, I am flying on a plane and cannot take it with me unless it is turned off. What should I do?

Take a flashlight and look in the earphone jack. If you can see a full or half pink or red circle, then the submersion indicator has been triggered. You're not covered by your warranty if this is the case.
I'd recommend sending it to Apple.
In the meantime, run your iPod flat so it is off on the plane. Take your charger with you, and when you're off the plane, charge it again. In the meantime, set it to 1 minute autolock, and use the home button to unlock it instead.

HT4354 My sleep/wake button suddenly stopped working. Is this a common occurance in ipod nano's 6th generation?

Recently I was listening to my music, and when I went to change to a different song, I wasn't able to wake my ipod with the sleep/wake button. It's like it's not even there anymore. And when I shake my ipod I hear this rattling sound, which i'm pretty sure means that it's broken. But why is this happening, it's happened to a couple of my friends ipods, and I haven't even had mine a year. Is there anyway that I can fix this?

I had exactly the same problem. I took it to the Apple Store and they peered up inside and said I had "obviously used some corrosive liquid" on it, so the problem was not covered by the warranty. I have no idea what "corrosive liquid" it could have been--I am very careful with my iPod, keeping it in a case, etc. The only thing I could think of was sweat from the gym, but they said that wouldn't do it. So they basically gave me a replacement one but charged me $150! I have been extra careful with the replacement one, but after 2 weeks, it is having exactly the same problem.
I just did a hard reset (held down the Sleep/Wake button and Home button simultaneously until the Apple Logo appears. Now it kinda works sometimes. Sometimes I have to push the button multiple times before it goes to sleep.
This is extremely frustrating as I am very careful in handling it. Makes me think there is some other problem with it, or these things are just so fragile they can't take the wear and tear of normal use.

CDMA iPhone 4's sleep/wake button isn't working

Ok so this afternoon I was doing the usual and using my awesome iPhone 4. After locking the screen my pressing the sleep/wake button, the button became jammed. It won't go up or down, or click to preform the sleep/wake functions. Will Apple cover this? It is still under the 1 year limited warranty. The back glass is also cracked and spider webbed.
