How do I access notes on an iPod Touch with a broken home button?

Hey guy, I have an older iPod Touch, and I am trying to gain access to about 800 quotes I had in the notes. The iPod let me get the first (latest) four, then blacked and exited the notes app. Now, it will no longer work, unless I try to add a  new note.  The home button is no longer working correctly, so I cannot reset it. Is there any way I can get Apple to email the quotes or something? I still have access to the settings, so I know version, model, serial number and all that. Any suggestions?

- Try connecting the iPod to your computer and restore from backup.

- Maybe you can extract them from the backup
iPhone Backup Extractor for Windows and Mac
- Restore another iPod, iPad or iPhone from your backup. Maybe Apple can do that at one of their Genius Bar
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Apple does not have them so they can't email them to you

    I did not sync my iPod Touch with iTunes and I have forgotten my password and now it is locked.  I have the recovery mode screen at "conect to iTunes", but iTunes is not recognizing it.  How do I unlock it?

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

  • How can i track down a stolen ipod touch with just my serial number

    how can i track down a stolen ipod touch with just my serial number

    You can't. The SN will only help identify the iPod as yours IF it is recovered.
    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My ipod touch automatically presses the home button

    my ipod touch automatically presses the home button causing apps to close, appswitching tray to pull up, and turning to spotlight search. i dont think my home button is broken; i can press and release it no problem. could this be a software problem?
    thanks!

    I would try the standard fixes inorder:
    - Reset the iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    - Restore the iPod via iTunes on your computer.  First from backup and if problem persists restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • IPod touch 5th gen. Home button stuck and power button not working! Please help!

    I have an iPod 5th Generation and the home button is jammed down! It felt sticky earlier but now it's stuck down. I used it when the home button wasn't working and had to use my notifications to change from app to app (as I didn't know about assistive touch). I turned it off, but now the power button is no longer responsive! The button isn't stuck, but it doesn't work anymore. It was working fine before, but now it won't respond. Please help!

  • Ipod touch automatically sets off HOME button

    hi, I accidentally spilled water and got a little bit on my ipod. Afterwards, I noticed that after I charge it, the ipod would automatically hit the home button.
    When I'm playing a game or have an app opened, it would close because it sets off the home button.
    when I press the top button, it would sometimes take a picture because it's holding the home button.
    When I leave it in lockscreen and screen off, the screen would automatically turn on.
    1. Is there anyway to fix this? or to disable the home button when I'm in game.
    2. Also, can I send it in for repair? The earbuds jack doesn't show any red from water spillage.
    Thx, any insights would be appreciated.

    also, when i put it near my static-y shorts, it sets off the home button.

  • Purchased itunes music will not copy to ipod touch with windows

    I'm helping out a neighbor. They just got an ipod touch and when they set up the itunes they were able to transfer some music but when they purchased music from itunes and tried putting it on the ipod it won't go. Now no music will copy to the ipod. Does anyone know that they should do? I'm not much of a PC person but I think if I can get some direction I can help them out.

    If the non-syning ones play in iTunes on the coputer:
    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.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - 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.

  • What do I do with my iPod Touch 4g when the home button does not work and when I plug it in to charge it always says that charging is not avaible with this accesory?

    iPod Touch 4g home button won't work plus will not charge properly

    Take it to a reputable third-party repair shop. Apple will not touch it after you have opened it up and tinkered with the works.

  • How can I get apps for my ipod touch with ios 2.2?

    I've been trying to search for games/apps for my iPod Touch but can't seem to find anything that doesn't required iOS 3.0 or greater.
    Does anyone have any suggested apps/games for the older gen ipod touch?  Is there a way to search the apps store for these older apps?

    If I may ask, why do you not just upgrade your iPod's operating system? Even the first-generation iPod touch can run iOS 3, and the 2nd-generation iPod touch can run iOS 4, though not all features work. Then you would have a much broader range of apps available to you.
    Regards.

  • How do you handle the iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch with PHDs?

    This is one of the areas that I'm having the most difficulty right now. Here's the setup:
    1 Server with 10.5.8
    3 desktops with 10.6.3
    2 laptops with 10.6.3
    3 users, each of whom has an iPhone. Let's say Jane has been using her desktop all week but is going to work from home on Friday, so she takes a laptop. She logs out of her desktop and logs in with the laptop while on the gigabit ethernet LAN to save time. This goes well, and she goes home. Friday she logs in and needs to sync her iPhone. It now says that she needs to authorize the machine. Ok, she dos this. Uh oh.. now she's at her limit of 5 machines. (Since the iTunes Music Store only lets users authorize 5 machines, this might pop up again) - also, it shows that she has 10 updates to her applications. She thinks this is strange because she had just synced her iPhone the day before and there were no additional updates, and the updates that the MacBook is showing her are the same versions that are installed on the iPhone already.
    I suppose that she can simply re-download the stuff and it won't be an issue, but is that the only effective solution?
    What have you folks done to facilitate 'ease of use' when using portable home directories and iPhone/iPad users?

    The iPod touch doesn't have the "enable disk use" option of other iPods.
    A program called AirSharing will let you mount the iPod touch as a wireless drive

  • Is there a way to turn on an ipod touch with a broken power and home button?

    I have an ipod touch 4th gen and the home and power button don't work plus the screen is shattered
    I have to wait until christmas to get an iPhone bc I have no money atm
    Aside from plugging it into a power source and having it turn on is there any other way to turn it on when I'm out?
    I know that some phones turn on when you plug in or take out the headphones, are there any options like that?
    I just need it for the next few weeks so there's no point in buying a new one right now
    thank you so much omg

    No, As you know the only method is to connect the iPod to a charging source.Yo could purchase one of the portable charging source/battery packs and use the turn it on when yo are not home.
