  • How to fix delay in home button

    I'm having a big delay in the home button on my new iPad 3. This never happened with my iPad 1. Is there a fix?

    Try a 'hard' reset.  Press home and sleep button at the same time and wait for it to turn off, ignore the Power slide.  It'll reboot on its own.

    Anyone know how to fix a stuck sleep/wake button on the IPOD Touch?

    If the songs are still on your ipod, make sure autosync is disabled in iTunes on your computer, connect and right click on it in the device list, then choose "transfer purchases" to copy all bought media and apps from your ipod to your computer.
    If the songs are not on your computer and got deleted from your ipod as well, you can't get them back, unless you have a backup of your iTunes library as part of your computer backup.

    Thanks

    Hi aaaaherman,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like your iPad 2 is in recovery mode and you’re running into an issue restoring it.
    Take a look at the article linked below which provides a lot of great information about recovery mode, including details about the restore process and what to do if the device isn’t recognized by iTunes.
    If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    So long,

  • IDEA 4 SIMPLE FIRMWARE FIX FOR BROKEN HOME BUTTONS!! SEND TO APPLE FEEDBACK

    Apple, as you know many people have had problems with their home buttons on their ipod touches and iphones. I have figured out a simple fix to broken home buttons. Release a new firmware that makes it so if you double click the power button twice in quick succession it does the same as clicking the home button.I have never heard of people having trouble with their power button so this would be perfect. Please make this happen.
