App is on phone but want it back on the home screen from which it disappeared.

I had an app on my phone's home screen but it disappeared. I want it on my home screen. When I do a search it shows that I already have that app and I do not know how to get it back on my home screen. I did a reset. It's still not there.

It is for a tv station and when I type the tv station in the search box it shows up along with a lot of other information such as people in my contact list. When I hold my finger on the actual app picture, it opens it up to the news, weather, etc. on the station.

Everytime I try and open an app it starts loading then goes right back to the home screen

Some apps work but others don't! I don't understand!

Try restart or resetting your iPod. See here for information: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

When using my phone it sometimes will go back to the home screen

When I'm using my phone it will go back to the home screen !! Annoying help

Your first post was that when trying to take a photo or going online it would go back to the display screen.
I would first go to settings to general to reset all settings. If this does not resolve the issue you will then want to back up all data and then restore device back to default settings. Obviously a software issue.

My iPhone says that I don't have enough storage to update one of my apps so I went to delete stuff that I didn't need but every time I select what I want to delete my phone freezes, goes back to the home screen and doesn't delete anything.

First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

When I stream videos from my laptop onto my Apple TV via my iPad 2 using the Air Video app/server the video plays great however when I pause the video the Apple TV reverts back to the home screen within a few seconds and then when I want to restart watching the video I have to re-buffer the video. Is there any way I can stop the Apple TV from reverting back to the home screen when I pause the video I’m watching?

Netflix app is stuck in a loop. Tapping the icon sends you to the NETFLIX red sceen. Screen says it's loading but it reverts back to the icon screen. I've removed and reinstalled the app half a dozen times. Anyone have a fix?

Try resetting your iPad by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

I start to open an app and it opens and starts to load then flashes back to the home screen this is doing it on all games but not the mail.

Hello jerrysgirl777
For issues with apps closing on you at start up, try closing the app from multitasking, restarting your device, checking for updates or just deleting the app and downloading it again. Check out the article blow for more information.

Phone keeps cutting back to the home screen

Hi
I was just wondering if anyone could help me, since last night my phone on most of my apps keeps cutting out and taking me back to my home screen. I cannot access my messages, calls, setting ect.. I can open things such as Facebook, Twitter and eBay but as soon as I click to type something on them they cut out as well. My lock screen button is broke so I can’t turn off my phone off and as said before I cant access my settings to update my phone if needed.
Thanks

Hi Friend,
close all apps you are using, then resetyour idevice pressing and holding Home/Sleep buttons until turns it off and on again.
Hope it helps

My iPhone 3G phone button no longer works. If I push it I get a black screen for a few seconds then back to the home screen. Everything else is ok. Any ideas how to fix this?

The phone button on my iPhone 3G no longer works. Everything else on the iPhone works fine. I can receive incoming calls. I can make calls directly from Contacts. But if I press the phone button I get a blank white screen for a few seconds then it goes back to the home screen. I've tried the hard reset and also restoring orignall settings via iTunes but keep getting the same problem. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thank you, Neil.

Thanks for the advice but I've tried resetting network settings and also the reset by pressing home and sleep buttons until getting the Apple logo. Still have the same problem. To be clear (because I mistakenly typed black instead of blank in the title to this thread): If I press the phone button I get a BLANK WHITE screen for a few seconds then it goes back to the home screen. I doubt it's the SIM card as I can receive calls and make them directly from contacts. What I can't do is view my favourite numbers or missed calls or access my voicemail, i.e. all the things you get to via pressing the phone button.

Hello, so today I realized that my iPhone with iOS 6 is frozen on the music. I can get back to the home screen but I can't get the music player to work because its frozen on the w's and will not respond to touch. I would be grateful for any help on this.

Hi deamayfield,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your Music app is unresponsive, try restarting/resetting your iPhone:

When I try to activate an app that was purchased on my IPad it goes to that app's screen that immidately goes back to the Home screen

These are the general things that you can try to get your apps to work again. But the first thing you can try is to download any free app - that seems to reset something. See if your apps will work after that. If not try these things listed.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
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.
Close all apps. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
If none of these things work, you may have to delete the app and install it again. To delete the app, tap and hold down on the app icon until it wiggles. Then tap the X that appears on the icon to delete it. Restart your iPad as described above and download the app again.

Phone 'forcing' you back to the Home Screen

I've been using my phone the past three days, and myself as well as a friend have had the same problem, and it's software related.
You will be doing something, just now I was flipping through albums in cover flow, and you get sent back to the home screen. You're not touching the home button, not even near it, and you're forced back to the home screen.
I did this, went back to the iPod, and was forced back again. No matter what I did I was instantly pushed back to the home screen until I turned off the phone and turned it back on.
This happens intermittently and seems to be something software related... it's either that or something with the 'Home' button...
Anyone else experiencing this?

I think this means that the app crashed. I've had this happen multiple times in Safari and Google Maps.
To be sure, do this: try a sync of your phone with iTunes, and if iTunes asks you if it's okay to send diagnostic info to Apple, then that's what happened.
If iTunes does not ask you if it's okay to send diagnostic info to Apple, then it's a different problem.
This was also a big problem when the Intel-based Macs first came out, and it has gotten much better. Now we again have the apps compiled for a new platform, so there will be a few months of Apple getting the bugs worked out.
I would bet that stabilizing these bugs will be a very high priority for Apple, and I bet we will see a software update for the iPhone within a few weeks.
