The lock button works only on the left side of the button not the right?

So I bought my iPhone 5 on the 28th of January and it has been less than a month and I already have a hardware problem. I haven't dropped my phone or anything like that. The problem is that my lock button only works when I press on the left of it. I don't know what to do. Do I go to my carrier or do I just go straight to the apple store? Oh and am I going to get a free replacement?

If you Make Genius reservation and take the iPhone to Apple Store, it will be covered with Warranty, most likely with perfect replacement iPhone 5 exactly like yours.

    Then you still are in your Apple one year hardware warranty and can get it replaced/repaired.

    iCloud should still help you reduce some hard drive space. Just select "optimize" in the icloud tab in Mac Photo App preferences.
    Granted, not the same as completely offloading your library to a back-up drive at your location.
    Good Luck!

    Basic troubleshooting from the  User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order.

  • Lock button not working for iPhone4

    Hi All,
    My lock button not working from last 2months, I am using assistive touch for time being.
    I bought my mobile in UK 1year back, currently i am staying in India.
    My real problem is, recently i visited apple store. The guys in the store are saying, it is against to their law to serve or repair mobiles which were bought in other country..
    I think this is rediculous.. Just i need some information how to fix it or how to contact the correct person regarding this POOR service.
    Thanks
    Rajesh

    No. The warranty is only valid in the country of purchase. All service for iPhones in UAE is provided by the supported carriers. You can find a list here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1937
    If you did not purchase it from one of the carriers listed, then you probably purchased an illegally imported gray market phone.
    Check Settings>General>About. What does it say for Model #?

    Those are hardware issues. You can try all of the software troubleshooting if you want. Restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new. If that does not work, then your only option is to pay someone for something. The decision is up to you, but I've provided the options.

  • The bookmark tab went from the right side to the left side. I did not change that. what cause the change from the right side to the left side?

    The bookmark tab went from the right side to the left side. I did not change that. what cause the change from the right side to the left side? Also the the Mozilla Firefox tab on the upper left hand corner changed.
    Its was a red colored tab and now its blue in color. I did not change any thing!

    Hey jimmiet,
    There were some recent ui changes around the downloads manager. What version where you on before? Anyway, you can customize things in Firefox really easily. Take a look at [[Customize Firefox controls, buttons and toolbars|this article on customizing Firefox]] for details. Should be a piece of cake to move the bookmarks button.
    As for the color of the button, you might be in [[Private Browsing - Browse the web without saving information about the sites you visit|Private Browsing]] mode. That changes the color of the button from orange to a purplish color.

  • Caps lock button not sensitive enough

    I just bought a new macbook air , and I found that the caps lock button not as sensitive as other buttons, what should I do now ?
    I have to press a bit longer and harder to make it detected.
    thanks!

    I'm not sure if you've resolved this issue but I solved the problem by removing the charger plug, then the battery.  While the battery is out, push the power button.  Reinstall the battery and reconnect power.  When the notebook rebooted, the caps lock light and num lock lights were once again working.

  • Showing. I RESET. Works, but doing this every day...does not seem right. What am I doing wrong?.

    Classic iPod in Dock, suddenly stops playing. Fully charged, blue play button showing. I RESET. Works, but doing this every day...does not seem right. What am I doing wrong?

    No problem, sometime the iPod need a Reset to clear the overflowing cache.
    So it's good to Reset once a week or after you recharge it.

    Hi Becki ..
    You need to "authorize" the Mac.
    Launch iTunes on the Mac then from the iTunes menu bar top of your screen click Store > Authorize This Computer.
    Now, using the same Apple ID as you used to purchased iTunes media originally, you should be able to sync all your content.

  • IPhone 5 lock button not working all the time

    Basically I can only press the left side of the lock button for it to work. The middle and right side do not work.
    If I bring it to apple store does anyone know what version iOS the replacement phone would be?

    Nobody knows what iOS a replacement unit is running, only employees of the Apple Service Centre. But one thing for sure is that they are usually running anything before iOS 6.1.3,

  • How can I turn my phone back on after shutting it off with the lock button not working?

    The lock button on my phone wont work, now, I have the AssistiveTouch on to lock and shut off the phone, however, how would I turn it back on afterwards? Could I just use the home button? I don't want to test it and end up with a shut off phone that cannot be turned on again...

    Thank you.  I need some kind of options, so this helps out a bit.

  • IPhone 5 lock button not working at all. If I'm in the one year warranty still but don't have apple care will I have to pay to get it fixed or will it be covered

    I have a iPhone 5 and about a month ago my lock button stopped working. It takes me about ten tries to power it back on or to lock it. If I'm still in my one year warranty will I have to pay to get it fixed? I didn't purchase apple care though so I'm wondering if it's going to cost me to get it fixed or if it's still covered because of the one year warranty? Thank you!

    If it's due to a manufacturing defect, the warranty will cover it. If it's due to accidental damage, it'll cost to get it fixed unless it happened during an authorized repair.

  • I-Phone 5 Lock Button Not Working

    I've got an iphone 5 and the lock button is not working when pushed on teh right hand side, it works internittently when pushed on teh left hand side but I generally have to remove the cover.
    The product is still in warranty however when I first got teh phone I dropped it causing some superficial damage to the glass section on the back (the touch screen is fine), on other posts they have suggested that if you book a genius appointment they just give you a new phone new phone no questions asked due to fault with the lock key, is the damage to teh phone likely to impact on this?

    Warranty and support is only valid in the country of origin.  The only exception being the EU where a device bought in any EU country can get warranty or service in any EU country.
    Warranty is determined by device (serial number), no documentation required.
    Apple does not repair devices, they replace them.  For that reason, ensure the device is backed up and any pictures take with the device are copied off the device prior to going in for service.
