My home button stopped working and now iPad mini will not turn.

My home button stopped working a few weeks ago, and now my iPad mini will not turn on. I can't restart the iPad, and it will not pop up in iTunes. What can I do?

Make an appointment with the nearest apple store and they will be able to replace it or give you directions otherwise. Hope this helps

  • My iPod Touch 5th generation is faulty, first the home button stopped working and now it's died completely, won't charge but I can feel the screen is heated. What is going on with this thing?

    I bought this iPod mid-March, I've only had it for a little less than 5 months.  I bought it at Best Buy, I don't know if that matters or anything- I have a geek squad and apple warranty.  I'm only nineteen years old and this was my first real big purchase and I'm very disappointed.  I've had other iPods before and never had any issues with them, my last one lasted from 2008 - 2013.  I take very good care of my iPod Touch, never dropped it or anything of the sort and I keep it in a thick case.  This iPod worked fine up until recently.  First the home button became unresponsive, I had to activate the assistive touch because I use this iPod for school work.  I was about to take my iPod into Best Buy so they could take a look at it and see if there was anything they could do before I contacted apple, but now my iPod is completely dead.  It won't respond at all. I had to disconnect the charger because the iPod screen was getting hot and it wasn't charging.  It's been disconnected for a few hours and the screen still feels hot. I'm really concerned, especially with recent news reports of handheld devices overheating and burning people or even exploding.  Will the apple warranty cover this so I can get a new iPod?  What are my options?

    If the iPod is defective and not abused Apple will exchange it at no cost under your warranty.
    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • So i just got my ipod august 2012. about 1 month ago, my home button stopped working and my ipod is getting slower and slower. would apple be able to fix it for free?

    Ipods automatically have a one year warrany unless you have violated the terms. But you can pay to extend the warranty. It depends, they may fix it for free or they may charge a bit. Im not entirely sure. But id say theres a good chance that they may fix it for free. With battery replacements, ive heard that they give you an entirely new ipod with a charge of $80. So i think it depends

  • My iphone home button stopped working and the phone started getting hot. The camera also fogged up. What do I do?

    My iphone home button stopped working and the phone started getting hot. The camera also fogged up. What do I do?

    I'm guessing it's a hardware problem. Your best option is to go to an Apple Store as soon as you can to try and sort this all out. While you're waiting to go visit an Apple Store, however, I'd imagine you still want to use your phone. To circumvent your hardware button problems, try enabling Assistive Touch by going to Settings>General>Accesibility>Assistive Touch. You'll see a small box appear on your screen. Tapping it will bring up several options for you to choose from, like the home button. Clicking the "Device" option will give you several options for controlling your phone that you would normally use hardware buttons for (i.e. volume, lock your phone, etc.) Hope this helps and good luck!

  • After downloading ISO8 my USB Ports on my IMAC arnt working and now my iPad2 will not charge?

    after downloading ISO8 my USB Ports on my IMAC arnt working and now my iPad2 will not charge? even tried to use 240v charger? both my iMac and iPad have been updated, my mini iPad is working on old iso7 so that won't be updated in a hurry, any help would be great.

    First is the most USB ports do not provide enough power to charge an iPad. Do not try and charge your iPad from such USB ports.
    There is no 240v charger. There is one charger that will work with US voltages and European voltages. If your iPad is not charger with the charger, make certain that is an iPad charger, not an iPhone charger. If the charger does not work try swapping the cable as the cable may be bad. If that does not work try another charger. All simple steps that should be attempted before pinning the problem on IOS 8.

  • I clicked all the buttons in the file sharing window and now my iMac will not turn on.

    I really goofed. I clicked all the buttons in the file sharing window (Screen sharing;File Sharing...Remote Login; Remote Management...Internet sharing) but I did not write down the IP address and now the computer will not turn on at all. Is there a way to roll back my stupidity and get this thing to turn on again?

    There's only one thing you can do: make an appointment with Apple genius at the Apple retail store for a out of warranty replacement.

  • HT4972 I have a n IPhone 4S.  I upgraded to IOS7 and then tried tp go back to my prevous IOS and now my phone will not turn on at all.

    I have a n IPhone 4S.  I upgraded to IOS7 and then tried tp go back to my prevous IOS and now my phone will not turn on at all.

    I tried to do the same, but couldn't find ios 6. I even tried  the APPstore, to download the last IOS6 version.
    The most problem is the running out of the battery.
    I've checked each app who is "eating" the most power.
    The battery stoped runaway, when I closed the weather service....
    So for now, I will use regular internet service, and probbaly will do to more app.
    Until, finaly, I will find my self with all the applications closed....:-)
    That will be the sign, to replace my phone to anderoid....:-)
    Till now, there is no any sign from Apple to have a glance to our complanes.

  • My iPad mini will not turn on for some reason.

    I have my iPad mini, and for some reason it will not turn on. Earlier this morning it was on and working just fine, and then when I got it to get on it and play some games, it was not responding and the screen was just blank. I have no idea why it is doing this, so I would like to have some answers, because in class we need it sometimes, aka algebra. (It is my own personal iPad, not the schools)

    What have you tried ?
    Assuming that the battery isn't empty (it can take about 15 minutes of charging before it will respond), then have you tried a soft-reset to see if that gets it to boot up ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • My iphone 4 lock button stopped working and now it won't charge

    Hi.
    A couple of weeks ago my iphone 4's lock button randomly stopped working, I had never dropped my iphone so I couldn't figure out why this had occurred. I did not see this as a big problem until recently when my iphone stopped charging. The iPhone had worked just as normal the day before it stopped charging. I usually charge my iphone over night, but one night it reached around 85% and stopped charging. I have tried it with several different iphone chargers and different plugs in the house but still the iPhone wouldn't charge. Now my iphone has ran out of battery and due to the fact that my lock button is broken, I can't try anything to turn it on. Does my battery need replacing?
    Thanks,
    Anna.

  • My ipad mini will not turn on at all. Please Help!

    Hello everyone, this morning i went to turn on my ipad mini and it would not turn on. I've tried plugging it in to both the wall and computer and leaving it there for around 30 minutes and still nothing, black screen. I've also tried holding the power and home button for 10 seconds or so and still nothing. Nothing happens when I plug it into my computer. The ipad is just about 2 years old now and i'm starting to think its just dead. But before i throw it out is there anything else i could try? Thanks to everyone who responds.

    Try again to charge your iPad using the wall charger that came with it. Plug the charger into a known good wall outlet. Let it charge for at least 30 minutes then reset the iPad by pressing and holding both the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button continuously until the Apple logo appears. Then release the button and let the device restart. You will not lose data doing this. It's like a computer reboot.
    If the iPad restarts let it continue to charge until the battery is 100%. If the iPad does not restart make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support..

  • Ipad mini will not turn on or connect to itunes.

    I turned off my ipad mini after closing the appstore and when i went to turn it back on, the apple logo started up for a few seconds, the screen brightness lights up, then it goes dim and stays on the apple logo forever. I have tried letting it go dead but when i boot it up it does this everytime. I cannot reset it because Itunes wont detect it. I have a warranty but i dont want to have to come to that, can anyone help me with this?

  • My iPad mini will not turn on, after the newest update.

    Just received an iPad mini from my mother the iPad was up and running.  I put the new update on it Friday night and Saturday evening plugging it in but it still had battery.  Went back to look at it and it was black screened plugged in. I unplugged try to turn it on and it won't start up.  I tried to reset with holding the off and home button. Didn't work. I tried to reboot with the computer and it does even recognize it. Please help!

    Hold the home and power button downs until it restarts. If iTunes doesn't recognize it, get it replaced. http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/
