Can the iphone 5's home button be replaced with the ipone 5ss'
i was wondering if the iphone 5's home button can be switched with an ipone 5s's home button
No, for several reasons:
This would void your warranty, and if something were to go wrong, you would be stuck with a useless paperweight.
The iPhone 5s is specifically engineered to take advantage of the fingerprint sensor. The iPhone 5 does not have the hardware to use the fingerprint sensor.
The iPhone 5s' internal routings may be different to the iPhone 5's, meaning the home button will not fit.
What would you do with the iPhone 5's home button?
Do not attempt this, even if other people tell you it's possible and/or safe. They are incorrect. Your Apple hardware is only designed to work with the parts it was designed for.
If you're looking to save on an iPhone 5s, then you can exchange your iPhone 5 for an iPhone 5s with some discount.
Hope this helped!

I have apps on my iPad and my computer is not connected to the Internet. How do I get my apps to load on the computer ? Because it says the apps on my iPad will be replaced with the apps that are on the computer but there is none there!

I wonder if the iphone 5's home button will quit working?
....after a year and a half like my iPhone 4's did?
I will be ordering 3 iPhone 5's and have decided to get Applecare+ on two of them. I've suffered through the broken Home button on my iPhone 4 long enough to convince me to get it. Plus the accidental damage replacement would be a lot of comfort. The only reason I'm not getting it for all three is one of the phones is for my grown daughter and I figure if she wants it she can buy it herself.

I'm looking at buying an iPhone 4s but have been told you must purchase them through Telstra for them to be NextG compatible because they modify them for use on their network.
Is this true or will one purchased from Apple Australia work on the network as well?sharnib wrote:

No.

Yep.
The only difference is that you can purchase an officially unlocked iPhone directly from Apple. You purchase one from Telstra, and it will be locked to Telstra...although Telstra does offer official unlocking. -

Can the Dual 1.8 GHz processor be replaced with the Dual 2.5 GHz?
I don't know a lot about processors and compatibility, so I was wondering if anyone could tell me if this upgrade is possible.
Thanks!Hi-
A lot depends on the series of the G5. Even within a specific series, say late 2004, processors of different speed had different boards, power supplies, etc. There are other factors beyond the physical as well.
Even the action of removing and replacing the same processor requires the system to be thermally calibrated. There is more to a G5 than the individual components. G5's are the sum of the components, some tied to another with no alteration to even series possible.
My thought is a simple processor swap as described would not work. -
My iPhone 4 keeps freezing up. I have turned it off, used the off switch n home button to try to restart it. It slowly comes on I type in my pass code which takes awhile to come up n it does do anything. I can't get in to any app.

iphone 4: Home Button Not Working. The home button only works when it is connected to iTunes, once i disconnet it does not work, i have tried a restore to factory settings but it still is not working. Any suggestions?
Apple, as I said, does not repair your iPhone. All hardware service issues are handled by replacing the unit. So they can't handle the home-button issue without also addressing the issue of the cracked screen, for which they'll almost certainly charge you. But you can make an appointment at an Apple Store or call Apple tech support and plead your case.

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!

My iphone screen has turned black, phone is still on as screen shots can be taken. When home button and power button are held - no apple icon will appear. Please help??
If this iPhone has had the screen replaced previously, possibly LCD Display connector has simply come loose from the Logic Board. Possibly the LCD Display is faulty and the front screen assembly needs to be replaced. If you have Warranty or AppleCare make Genius reservation or set up service and take or send to Apple. This is handled by Apple with Replacement iPhone 4S.

So, I locked my iPod while listening to music, then pressed to home button to turn it back on, then I pressed it again twice to bring up the music controls so I could pause the song. The music controls came up, but they didn't control the song I was listening to, also the album artwork wasn't showing. How can I fix this?
Hello,
I am currently an owner of an Ipod Touch 4th generation. I see you are having problems with your Ipod Touch, so I will try to find a solution to your problem.
Hold down the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10sec. or until Apple logo appears (Nothing will be lost, this is just a "Hard Reset")
Hope that helps!
If none of the above solutions work, can you please respond back ASAP as I will try to find another solution to your problem (This might even help others with the same problem!)
Cheers!

My MacBook works fine wifi everywhere except for home. The home wifi is fine with the iPad and iPhone, so I assume the issue is with my computer. My computer works fine on wifi networks elsewhere. The only problem is at home.
The computer "connects to the wifi," but browsers and other internet-dependent software do not work. Curiously, if I connect the ethernet cord that doesn't work either. Usually if I reset the modem to factory settings twice (for some reason, once doesn't do the trick), my computer will fully connect to the wifi. However, in a few days, it goes back to not working.
Today, resetting the modem didn't work. I could only get wifi connection while in safe mode, but not in normal mode. So, the issue seems to be software not hardware. I have tried starting new accounts in normal mode, but those also don't connect properly to internet.
Not sure if this is relevant, but this problem started when my building switched internet providers from ComHem to Telia (I live in Sweden).
What do you recommend I do?
Thanks!
PS I use Snow Leopard: OS 10.6.8Not unless the modem is causing a problem.
What you want to do is get it to work reliably over Ethernet first, then tackle wifi. Power off the modem. On your macbook, delete the Ethernet configuration and the Wifi configuration. Power up the modem, then connect the mac via Ethernet. Create the new Ethernet configuration and see if you can connect. -
can anyone help please. how do i get the home button to appear on the touch screen my home button has stopped working?
I have same problem.
However, I am unable to turn on Assistive Touch.
At one time I was able to activate it, but it went away and now I cant reactivate.
What is the solution? -
My iphone keeps blanking out and then when I press then home button it tells me the battery is dead. it has happened to me at 30%, but today it was at 71%, is there a fix for this?
This is often due to faulty battery. Make Genius reservation and take iPhone to Apple Store for free quick battery diagnostic testing.
