Baby sucked on iPod Touch - Home button doesn't work

My 1 year old grabbed my 3 week old iPod Touch 2G off of my desk and put it in her mouth. Needless to say everything went berserk on the iPod. Screen was flickering, touch didn't work etc. I turned it off and let it dry for a day. Now everything is working except the Home button. My question is, can I get this thing repaired or is Apple going to pull the liquid damage stuff on me. The indicator is pink now from her drool. 3 week old iPod!! This is my third iPod from Apple and will NEVER buy another if I can't get this fixed without hassle and extreme expense. I am upset... any answers would be appreciated. Thanks.

It IS liquid damage. It can't hurt to have it looked at, but it will probably cost you to have it fixed.

  • IPod Touch Home Button Doesn't Work

    Hi all! My (Fourth Generation) iPod Touch's home button isn't working as well as it once upon a time did when it was new 2 years ago. I keep having to press it 3-6 time for it to bring me back to the home page. If I hold it down for a few seconds and then press the home button, it most of the time works. There are many questions similar to this but I wanted to start my own. More opportunities to get points right!
    So, Any Ideas?

    - You can turn on Assistive Touch: Settings > General > Accesibility
    - You can repair for:
    iPod 4G - 8 GB - 99$
    iPod 4G - 32 GB - 149$

  • My ipod touch 5th generation will not turn on and the home button doesn't work. what do i do?

    Hello my name is Leslie and i would like to ask you guys a question on how to fix my ipod or what is wrong with it. My ipod touch 5th generation will not turn on and the home button doesn't work. what can i do to fix it ?

    Has the home button worked in the past, or is this been something that hasn't worked for some time? The only way to reset the device is with the sleep/wake (power) and home buttons together. Without it, you would have to wait until the battery dies and then plug it in to try and reset it. The Home button is used for several user troubleshooting steps. Without it, you cannot perform a reset, put the device into recovery mode, or place it in DFU mode. You need to get the home button repaired.

  • IPod Touch 4G Home button doesn't work

    I bought my iPod Touch 4G in January of 2011, so I've had it for a little over a year now.
    Recently, the home button has been finicky (I had to press it repeatedly for  it to respond sometimes) and today it stopped working all together. I restored it, hoping that it was the iPod itself, but it still doesn't work. It's not stuck or anything, because I'm able to press it all the way down.
    If I were to take it into the Apple store, would I have to pay to have it fixed (I never bought a warranty)? I've never dropped it or anything either.

  • Ipod touch home button stuck and the power will not turn on

    Can someone help me?  My daughter's ipod touch 4th generation has a stuck home button.  We have changed the settings so that the alternate home button is on the screen; however, while she was using it earlier, the ipod shut off and will not turn back on.  We have tried to plug it in, hold the power button, etc.  Since the home button doesn't work, we can't hold the power and home buttons simultaneously as recommended.  Any other ideas?
