Home button in ipad not working right :(
My home button is not working right, sometimes I try to exit an application and won't take me to home screen. :( any suggestions?
I have had the same problem. Sometimes it works, but most of the time it doesn't. The 4 finger swipe feature in iOS 5 helped, before that I had to constantly restart to get back to the home screen. I have been wondering if it is a hardware issue, because sometimes it works if I tap lightly in just the right spot-usually upper left cornner. If you find out solutions, please let me know.

Make sure it's charged.
Try to Reset your device:
Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears (ignore the Slide to Power Off option that shows up first). -

Refurbished iPad not working right - return to Apple store?
Hey guys -- Simple question here but one I didn't see on a quick search.
Picked up a refurbished iPad 2 on May 10th. The other day when I picked it up while playing a YouTube video, the screen faded to black quickly, almost like I'd hit the power button. Didn't think much of it. However, tonight, it's doing it again, and I'm able to duplicate it every time. If I have the iPad in landscape mode and laying flat on a surface, with the home button to the right, and I lift up on the top edge, the screen will immediately fade to black and wait a few seconds before I can turn it back on again.
I do use this for my job (sound tech) so I definitely need it to be reliable, and now I'm a bit concerned about it. I'd like to get it taken care of locally if possible so that I'm not without it as long for work, and there's an Apple store fairly close (MacArthur Mall, Norfolk, VA). But since I purchased it on Apple's site, am I going to have to deal with them, or can they take care of things at the store? I can't imagine they have a pile of refurbs to swap it out with.
If I do have to go through the online store, has anyone dealt with them who can tell me an estimated real-life return time? I need to know if I should buy another iPad to get me through the next few jobs or if this will be back quick enough.
Thanks!You do not have to go through the online store. You can go to an Apple Retail Store. It still has warranty so ou are entitled to a free replacement if the Apple Store Genius is not able to fix the problem.

IOS 7.1 Upgrade - home button double click not working most of the time
Hi,
Not sure, if anyone else had encountered this issue after upgrading to iOS7.1.
I am using iPhone5S 32 GB and it was working fine with home button (double click, mostly used to see & close other applications running in background) till I upgraded to iOS7.1. After iOS7.1 upgrade, most of the time, I am unable to see running applications. After trying for 4-5 times, I managed to see running application
Is there any fix or workaround for this issue?Settings > General > Accessibility > Home-Click Speed - Change from Default to Slow
-
I do not know what to do or how I should go about fixing this.
Did all this happen at once, or over time? Have you plugged the device into a charger for at least a half an hour? After that amount of time, you can try a reset, hold the sleep/wake and home button together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone should reboot. If it does not, then make an appointment with the Genius Bar at Apple. I would say the phone is broken.

How to fix home button that is not working
My home button is harder to use it take several tries to get it to work.

How to fix the problem in the home button , it's not working.
I notice few weeks ago that the home button is not responding as it should be.
It’s really killing me and I want to destroy my IPhone.
I’ve already re-activated the home button but there is no use of that.
I am in middle east and I got my white I phone 4 by shipping in internet.
So what to do now?Should be under warranty take it back to any Apple store and they should clean the dust or debrib from it, remember to make an appointment first to see a Genius. (it's what I did)
Hope you get it all sorted and all is fine.

What to do now when my iPad won't turn on after I turn it off. It shows only the apple logo. I am sure it has above 70% charge as when I sync my iPad it shows necessary detail in iTunes. I have tried, HOME & POWER button, but did not work.
First try a Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least Ten seconds... (But can take Longer)... until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons
If no joy... Try a Restore...
1: Connect the device to Your computer and open iTunes.
2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.
Restoring > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
Make sure you have the Current Version of iTunes Installed on your computer
iTunes free download from www.itunes.com/download
3: If Unable to Restore, try using the Steps in this article to force the device into Recovery Mode.
Note on Recovery Mode.

HT4623 My iPad mini is not working right ?? On some apps
My iPad mini is not working right on some apps
You can always try to reset your device and see if it helps matters any:
Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally. -
iPad has not worked right since it updated to latest software. Tried to question Apple about it but it costs 20 bucks just to lodge a complaint. Is this normal Apple behavior or am I missing something. Also anyone else having issues with upgrade to iOS7. It was working great until that point and now goes into reboot mode often and sometimes will continuously reboot several times. I have tried to restore but that didn't clear the problem. Any thoughts or help would be appreciated.
Greetings,
I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
Good Luck - Cheers,
M. -
IPad 4 switches off when i am using it, even when battery is fully charged. Restore function (holding down both buttons) often does not work. Cannot power up iPad. I have updated software, restarted computer, but no success. I did restore the iPad about 8 times during the past 2 weeks. Just completed another restore. iTunes says the the iPad has been restored and will restart automatically and appear in iTunes when it is ready. That was 30 minutes ago. iPad still won't start. I am looking down the barrel of yet another fruitless restore. What a crap product.
Try a reset:
Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple logo.
