When you buy directly from Apple, how do you set it up to your carier? or do
they ask you that upon purchase. Just wanting to know for future refference.

Hi,
Yes, I've had that happen to me, but on an iPhone 5. As far as you getting
refurbished ones, they're brand new. They simply go in the back in the store
and grab a new phone. Your AppleCare will transfer over to the replacement
phone as well.
I was also told that phones purchased through Apple are tested more before
they're actually sent to stores for sale, as opposed to carriers, who just
get phones shipped straight to them after manufacturing.

Hello all,
I have a 32 Gig iPhone 4S that I purchased on Oct 15, 2011 and I have
Apple Care Plus for it. Unfortunately my sleep/power switch has become
very hard to use. I have always had my phone in a case & have never
dropped or gotten it wet. Currently I have a speck candyshell case on my
phone, however even when I take the phone out of the case it's still very
hard to get it to sleep/wake using the switch.
I do have a Genius Bar appointment this afternoon, and until then I've
been using the assistive touch menu as a work around, however I've seen on
the internet that some people have had problems getting Apple to exchange
their phones,now they could be people who don't have Apple Care Plus but I
know my phone is under warrenty as ironically I was at the Apple Store on
Friday and was able to exchange my power cable which was fraying.
Apparently this is a well documented thing that happens to iPhone 4 &
iPhone 4S's. I'm shocked as one would think as much as we use the home
button that that would wear out much faster!
My question is has anyone on this list had their power/sleep button become
hard to use? If so, did Apple exchange the phone? I know I could upgrade
to the iPhone 5 but I don't want to, I'd like to see what happens this
year with the new update.
This is my original iPhone 4S, I had 3 iPhone 3GS's (all exchanged through
the Genius Bar) as I had battery problems with the first 2 so within a 1.5
year time span I had 3 3GS's and in the same amount of time I have only
had 1 4S. Oh yeah, do you know if the phones you get when you exchange
them at Apple are they refurbished or are they new?
Thankks,
Katey
