HT2188 How can I fix the home button on my iPod touch?

I have a 4th generation iPod touch that is about almost 2 years old. I've never dropped it on a hard surface like concrete or hardwood floors, just a few times on my carpet. It's never been scratched, never had water damage or anything like that. It's in pretty good condition, and runs pretty smoothly, except my home button doesn't work!
I know several people with the same iPod who have similar problems - their home button doesn't work. When I'm in an app, like the Music app, and I hit the home button to get back to my home screen, it doesn't work.
I've looked it up on the internet - I've seen several videos on YouTube (like turning the iPod off, entering an original app like Weather or Notes and then holding the lock button down until the "slide to power off" button came up, and then holding the home button down until it went away to 'calibrate' the home button, and locking my iPod and then clicking the lock screen and home button at the same time - which worked for me a few times, but after like a day or two, the button stopped working) and I've also Googled it and heard that rubbing alcohol on a q-tip would clean any gunk out from underneath the home button. I've never tried the alcohol one out of fear that I'd really ruin the button.
I've also read that there might be dust under there or gunk that should be cleaned by a professional...
But my dad says that it's too tight of an area around the button for anything to get lodged under there. I am currently updating the iPod to iO5 or whatever the new update is to see if it makes any difference.
I'm just trying this forum as a last result to see if there is anyone out there with a similar problem that has fixed it themselves to quell the problem permanently. If not, then I suppose I'll be forced to take it to the Apple Store and see if they can fix it.
I did have the 1 year warranty, but alas, I did not start having these problems until recently.

Hello, how can i fix my home button, it activates itself all of the time.

my iphone has a mind of its own! the home button activates its self all of the time. if i am using a app it will go back to the menu, if locked it will open voice command. i have tried reseting, updating it and all of that. its not at all damaged and it started doing it all of a sudden and hasnt stoped for a week now. p.s I would rather not send it back to apple because their service is awful and very slow, i have already changed it 4 times for various reasons and would rather avoid doing it again. thanks alot if anyone can help, im getting desperate :s

You can try the steps recommended in the User Guide. If they don't work bring your phone into Apple for evaluation.

Well, if your Home button is broken, you won't be able to reset your phone, and if the Sleep/Wake button won't turn your phone on, it's a trip to the Apple store.

How can I get my home button to start working again?

I got the Ipod 4 when it first came out. Shortly after i had gotten it the button had stopped working on it, so I had set up the home button that you have on the screen. Is there any way that I can fix it?

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

How can i reposition the Home button?

I find the new position of the Home Button in FF4.0 (way over at the extreme right-hand side of the Navigation Toolbar) both inconvenient and annoying. It now requires a lot more mouse motion to reload the Home page.
Is there anything I can do to "drag" or reposition the Home Button closer to the left-hand side of the Navigation Toolbar?

# Right-click on a toolbar and select Customize
# With the customize toolbar dialog on display, you can drag and drop icons to move them around
