The home button doesn't response sometimes. Is there any technique? Am I using the wrong pressure? Please help
This may or may not work; no harm trying.
Calibrate the Home button
1. Open a pre-installed app, such as Contacts
2. Press and hold the sleep/wake button until the red slider appears
3. Immediately release the sleep/wake button; press and hold the Home button.
4. Hold until the red slider disappears.

Our iphone 4 3gs home button doesn't work well and the phone jumps out of apps
Over the last few months our iphone has been acting funny. Sometimes the home button doesn't work. Sometimes we are in an app and we are jumped into another. What do we do to fix this?
Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Perform a Reset... Try again...
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, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

Hello my name is Leslie and i would like to ask you guys a question on how to fix my ipod or what is wrong with it. My ipod touch 5th generation will not turn on and the home button doesn't work. what can i do to fix it ?
Has the home button worked in the past, or is this been something that hasn't worked for some time? The only way to reset the device is with the sleep/wake (power) and home buttons together. Without it, you would have to wait until the battery dies and then plug it in to try and reset it. The Home button is used for several user troubleshooting steps. Without it, you cannot perform a reset, put the device into recovery mode, or place it in DFU mode. You need to get the home button repaired.

My Iphone 4 screen just went black and it wont come on but it vibrates on ringer. Ps: The home button doesn't work. What do I do!?
If it never worked after the screen replacement then it would appear that you have a hardware problem either caused by the repair or the problem that lead to the screen replacement.

My home button is not working sometimes and at the store they dont want to take it for repair because the problem did not show up at that time
When normally powering the phone, there would not be a loading bar, you would just see the Apple logo. You can try a reset of the phone, hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot.
You can take the phone to Apple, by making an appointment at the Genius Bar to have the hardware checked. Apple handles warranty and post-warranty issues, not Verizon. Have Apple look at the hardware to see if there are any problems. -
Help. My home button doesn't work. I've to press it several times to get it to function. The phone has 4 months. I've already update software, restarted and calibrated it. I was thinking to go to the service. Has 1 year hardware warranty. Suggestions?
There's another thread with similar problems.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2595841?start=510&tstart=0
I wouldn't suggest it though, since it may void your warrantee. Apple will replace it if you bring it in. The genius bar guys aren't too bright, well most of them. But they'll go through the usual diagnosis steps then issue you a replacement if they have them in stock.
I have to admit, Apple has one of the best replacement services that I've ever experience. If you're familiar with costco, the return/exchange process is very quick and painless. -
I would like to know if apple will replace it. If not, then I will take somewhere cheaper but it has some scratches so I would like to get a new one.
The home button doesn't work, the LCD cable is broken and the screen is cracked! Wow. That's the worst case of abuse that I've seen. I think that Apple will laugh at you.

My iPhone4 got wet. And now the home button doesn't work.
Today it was raining and my iPhone4,which was in my pocket, got wet. And now the home button doesn't work. What should i do to fix it?
I would place the iPhone in a big bowl of white rice, rather than in a baggie. That's what my brother did with his iPod touch that got wet, and it fixed it. The iPod touch works perfectly fine now, and the bowl is better because while the rice soaks up any wetness or condensation, the openness of the bowl gives way for evaporation.
A good idea would also be to take out your SIM card, if at all possible. Put it back in when you're ready. -
I was restoring my iTouch and accidentally unplugged it and now it is stuck at the logo and loading bar under it. I can't go into DFU because the home button doesn't work. How can I fix it?
- See if placing the iPod in recovery mode with this program will allow a restore.
