After installing iOS 5 beta 7 on iPad 2 / Home Button is not working properly :(

Hey guys,
my paddy is brandnew. Just 4 Days old.
I got it with iOS 4.3.5 on it. Everything was fine.
We`re developing for iOS, so therefore i installed iOS 5 beta.
Since i did that, i have Problems with the Homebutton.
Sometimes it reacts sometimes not at all.
Someone told me, "no support for beta"
I just want to know,  if this could be a Software issue or if it is a real Hardware problem.
I heared that this problem appeared in a version of 4.xx as well.

There have been a very small number of users that have reported problems with the home button using iOS 4.xx. From what I have seen, closing apps seems to help in many cases.
No matter what you find on this site, you would be better off seeking help here.

  • After I updated to iOS 7.0.2 my lock button is not working properly

    After I updated to iOS 7.0.2 my lock button is not working properly I push the button many times and after many failed attempts it locks and sometimes not. I had to use the accesibility tool to lock it manually from the screen, this is really annoying.

    I guess it is.
    Do you have a question, or are you just sharing your experience with us?

  • HT2693 How do you contact Apple by email to report one of their pre-installed iPad Apps (ie Calender) is not working properly?

    How do you contact Apple by email to report one of their pre-installed iPad Apps (ie Calender) is not working properly?
    On trying to open month of March 2013 the pre-installed calendar just shuts down and closes.  Have tried restarting iPad but this didn't help and because its a pre-installed App am unable to re-install it.   Is this a universal problem or just affecting me?  Tried searching for support in both App Store and on Apple site and can't see how to report this.

    Try resetting the PRAM and SMC.  Try making the device a favorite .

  • Home button is not working sinds ios 5.1.1 update

    I bought my iPad 2 2 weeks ago and everything was working fine. I dit an update of the software and my home button is not working anymore. Could someone please help me out? Thanx in advance

    Try to recalibrate your home button.
    Step 1) – The very first thing you will need to do is launch a stock iOS app like the Calendar, Stocks, YouTube etc.
    Step 2) – Once the stock iOS app of your choice has been launched you will need to hold the power button (located on the top of your iOS Device) until the Slide To Power Off toggle appears.
    Step 3) – As soon as you see the Slide To Power Off toggle appear you will need to quickly hold the home button until this toggle disappears.
    Step 4) – When it does disappear you will have successfully recalibrated your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad’s home button.

  • Hello My ipads Power button is not working properly when I press it once it shows option to turn off instead of locking and some other display problems like it suddenly lockes down or display disappears ...Please help. Thank You

    Hello My ipads Power button is not working properly when I press it once it shows option to turn off instead of locking and some other display problems like it suddenly lockes down or display disappears ...Please help. Thank You

    Thanks for that information!
    I'm sure I will be calling AppleCare, but the problem is, they charge for the phone calls don't they? Because I don't have money to be spending to be on the phone with a support service.
    In other things, it seemed like the only time my MacBook was working was when I had Snow Leopard without the 10.6.8 update download that was supposed to be done to prepare for OS X Lion.
    When I look at the information of my HD it says that I have 10.6.8 but that was the install that it claimed to have failed and caused me to restart resulting in all of the repeated problems.
    Also, because my computer is currently down, and I've lost all files how would that effect the use of my iPhone? Because if it doesn't get fixed by the time OS 5 is released, how would I be able to upgrade?!

  • New ipad 2 home button is not responsive

    I got a refurbished ipad 2 from apple store and when i open the ipad at home, i see the iPad 2 home button is not so responsive. I tried resetting but it didnt work.
    Do i need to take it apple store or return back.

    Exactly the same i got a replacement Ipad 2 weeks before my warranty ran out,after about a week of working perfect the home button starting playing up. I inserted the power cord into the bottom and pulled up on it slightly so it pushes up on the home button and it has worked perfect all week until last night,so i did it again and its fine again but for how long? If it does it again im going to return it again as you get 90 days warranty on the replacement,it must be a hardware issue.

  • TS3274 ipad 2 will not charge and home button does not work. batter at 39% so cannot upgrade over wi-fi. What can I do?

    my wife's iPad home button has stopped working, in addition it will not charge either through usb or the wall.
    She uses it to read novels mainly and has not mishandled it.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks

    I realize that you said that the home button is not working, but try this anyway.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. See if the battery will show that it is charging after the iPad starts up.

  • Ipad app icons shaking but won't delete, home button does not work, power off switch does not work

    I just got a new ipad air and have started to add apps to it.  I have added a couple of free apps which I have also deleted (moved to icloud).  I have also a couple of apps (free & purchased) which I have on it now.
    Now my problem:
    I tried to remove another free app.  I press and hold the icon.  All app icons shake and display the 'x' for removing, but the 'x' for does not work on any of the icons.  Also, after this, the home button does not work as the icons keep shaking even while I am pressing the button.  And the power off switch on the side of the device does not work either.  If I close the smart cover and reopen it shows the home display and all the icons still shaking (instead of showing the passcode sign-in display).  Fortunately (well, fortune in the misfortune) if I press the home button and off switch a couple times each and close the smart cover and wait, the device awakes normally.  Well, normally until I try to remove any app.
    So what do I need to do to fix this?
    Thanx
    Brian

    Glad it worked. Anytime your iPad acts up, the reboot/reset is a common first thing to try. And it clears up many issues and glitches.

  • My iPad 2 home button has stopped working I have tried the swivel from landscape to portrait whilst holding the button, I have tried holding the off button then the home button and I was told I could create my own home button in the settings but I can't!

    My iPad 2 home button has stopped working all together, I have tried the swivel from landscape to portrait whilst holding the home button, I've tried pressing the off switch then pressing the home button, the other thing I was advised to do was create a home button in the settings under the accessibility option but I don't have the option I was advised to use under there! Help! It's really frustrating having to turn the device off everytim I want to switch apps and I really can't afford to send it away to be mended! Many thanks in advance

    The accessibilty setting that was mentioned is:
    * Enable AssistiveTouch
    Enable AssistiveTouch which floats a virtual button on-screen which can mimic all hardware buttons on the device:
    Settings>General>Accessibility>AssistiveTouch: turn ON
    *Note* If you power off the device using the AssistiveTouch panel (tap the on-screen AssistiveTouch button, Device>Lock Screen (tap and hold to power off)), you will NOT be able to power on the device *if your Sleep/Wake (power) button is not functioning*. You will need to connect the powered off device either to a PC's USB port or an external charger to power the device back on.
