How can I get my home button to start working again?

I got the Ipod 4 when it first came out. Shortly after i had gotten it the button had stopped working on it, so I had set up the home button that you have on the screen. Is there any way that I can fix it?

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:                                 
iOS: How to back up           
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    Well, if your Home button is broken, you won't be able to reset your phone, and if the Sleep/Wake button won't turn your phone on, it's a trip to the Apple store.

  • How can I get my MBA in Clamshell Mode working again?

    Hi, I bought the latest MacBook Air about four months ago pre-installed with Lion. About two months ago I bought the VGA adapter so I can use my MBA in clamshell mode. I plugged in my mouse and keyboard to the usb ports and everything worked great until I started messing with the display settings to try and improve the resolution. Now, I can't get my MBA to wake up from sleep on the external display when I close the lid. When I open my MBA, my external display acts as a secondary monitor. I've read other people's responses and they suggest InsomniaX or Caffeine or something. I DO NOT want to install these programs! It was working when I first bought it and that's how I want it. Help?

    Your phone is in recovery mode.  All data on it are already lost.  You must connect your phone to your computer and restore through iTunes.

  • I am using Firefox 3.6 on my PC , and now, when I select File New Tab (Ctrl+T), no new Tab shows up. Nor does it show up when I click the new Tab symbol next to my other tabs. How can I get the New Tab feature to work again?

    In the past 48 hrs, all of a sudden, the New Tab feature on my PC< using Firefox 3.56, simply stopped working. I did not change settings, or download a new version of Firefox. it just stopped working. There are other scenarios where it does still work (for example, if I want to open a link on a web page, I can right click and open the link in a new tab), but if I simply want to have multiple websites open at once on my PC, I am forced to have multiple versions of Firefox open, as my New Tab option seems to be disabled or something. Can you help?

    How can you get your submit buttons on the quiz template to be a single click instead of the default double click?  (The option to choose double click or not is not showing in properties for this).

    Hmmm... Submit button doesn't need a double click at all. Maybe you are talking about the two-step process? When you click on Submit, the feedback appears with the message to click anywhere or press Y. Is that what you are talking about? If you are talking about a real double-click, something must be wrong in your file. And which version are you using?

    How can I get the reset button to work?: Answer
    Thanks to everyone who helped on this. You are awesome. Especially Ned!!  Posted here because I was unable to add more to the existing post.
    Here is the question:
    When you click on the reset button, this error below comes up. If you can't find the button it is the navy colored rectangular thing in the lower left corner of page.
    ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.
        at flash.display::DisplayObjectContainer/removeChild()
        at AddATree2/onReset()
    When you click on the reset button, this error below comes up. If you can't find the button it is the navy colored rectangular thing in the lower left corner of page.
      Here is the answer:
    //when you click the reset button everything is removed from the stage
        //except the star, baclground, and reset button (trees and greeting REMOVED)
        public function onClear(Event:MouseEvent):void
                if (tree3) removeChild(tree3);
                if (tree2) removeChild(tree2);
                if (webText) removeChild(webText);
                if (tree) removeChild(tree);
                clickCount = 0;

    This is the answer to what to put in the onclear function.

  • In Yosemite, How can I get the "READER" button back in the Tool Bar at the top of the screen

    In OS X Yosemite,
    How can I get the "READER" button back in the Tool Bar for Safari at the top of the screen ?
    Thanks,

    I don't see the "READER button".
    I see "READ LATER" but not the "READER" function.
    Maybe I'm doing it wrong.
    Please continue to HELP ME with this question.
    In the previous version of Safari, there was a "READER Button" on the right side of the tool bar. This brings up the selected web page in a READER mode all by itself, without the ads, etc.
    Are you saying that I can get this function by clicking on the Left side of the Address bar?
    When I do that, I get lots of icons, but NOT the READER button.
    Thanks

    Where is the backup of the media and other important files from the computer?  Ultimately, it is the users responsibility to ensure that backups exists. Waiting until there is a problem to decide to do a backup is not smart.  Would you wait until a fire started in your home to call the insurance company and inquire about homeowners/renters insurance????
    In the event that no backup exists (stop being lazy.... keep backups of YOUR data and other important files):
    If you are in the US and running iTunes 10.3 or later, it is possible to redownload music via iCloud from purchased history.
    If you are not in the US or for some reason cannot run iTunes 10.3 or later, contact iTunes customer support and ask very nicely for the opportunity to redownload the content.  They are not required to provide this opportunity.
    It is also possible to transfer content from an iDevice that was purchased via iTunes.  On the new computer, sign into the iTunes account, authorize the computer, connect the device then select File > Transfer Purchases.
    The simplest method of all is to transfer or copy the media (and other important files) from the old computer or the backup of the old computer.  Typing "move itunes library" into the search bar here or into google will reveal step by step instructions on how to do this.

    After upgrading to Mavericks and iPhoto 9.5 my shared photo streams seem to contain no photos when seen in iPhoto. From iPad the streams are fine. How can I get them to be recognized by iPhoto again?

    Disable Photo Stream in the System/iCloud preference pane
    and in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane.
    Reboot and reenable both respectively. That should jump start Photo Stream.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    *Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
    Another possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
