  • Since upgrading to iOS 6.1 my home button doesn't work. Is there a fix?

    Since upgrading to iOS 6.1 my home button doesn't work. Is there a fix??

    Restore your iPhone with current iTunes on your computer. See if fixed. If still problem and if there is Warranty or AppleCare make Genius reservation or set up Service and take or send to Apple for resolution. If no coverage, try Virtual Home Button, tap Settings App > General > Accessibiltiy > Assistive Touch > ON > tap new white screen button > Home.

    Hi,
    You can use the alternative called assistive touch to enable assistive touch go to settings>general>Accessibility>scroll down to the bottom of the page and enable assistive touch a white dot at the bottom right of your screen will appear press the white dot and you will see the home button
    Hope this helps
    N.B. book an appointment with an apple genius although they will charge you if you get your iPod fixed by their repair services due to your warranty expiring

    i've seen the other videos i can do it but my home button doesn't work ??

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    When it says place the iPod in recovery mode
    Place the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs:

    or
    http://joshuabailey1997.wordpress.com/2010/09/02/recboot-v1-3/
    If necessary:
    Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
    and                                           
    RecBoot tip
    RecBoot may have problems on 64X windows, then try:

    For MAC or PC       
    The Firmware Umbrella - TinyUmbrella
    Installs blootware on PC too
    - 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 another cable       
    - 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 5th generation will not turn on and the home button doesn't work. what do i do?

    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.

    Go to the Map mode in your iDVD project and make sure the blue bin at the left is empty.  That's where you drag slideshows to if you want the DVD to open immediately to that slideshow and bypass the menu.

  • My iPod touch 4th gen white's home button doesn't work the first time I press it, but the second time.

    My home button doesn't work the first time I press it, but the second time.  This is very annoying.  Why is it doing this?

    - Try a reset. It cures many ills and nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • Stuck on apple logo and Home button doesn't work, help please?

    Well, I dropped my iPod Touch 4g by accident and since that day, the home button hasn't really been working that well. Its very hard to use since you have to press it in really hard to get it to work and sometimes it doesn't even work at all. Anways, I was skyping with my girl and I didn't notice that I had to charge the iPod and it died on me so I was like what ever its normal and started to charge it. When it turned on, it got stuck on the Apple logo and its been there for more than a day now? What can I do? I know about the Press Home + Sleep button together but the Home button doesn't work at all anymore. I tried everything really. I tried to connect it to itunes and see if I could restore it but it won't recognize it no matter where I connect it. Tried it on 3 different computers and none worked at all.  I can't take it to an Apple store since there isn't any close to where I live and I really don't have anyone to take me there. So is there any other solution to fix my problem at home? or is it messed up completely? Someone please help me

    I have this same issue. But also, it isn't just that the lock/home button stops working, all buttons stop working. Even if you switch it to silent sounds are still played. I just got my iphone Thursday. Went to school the next day and pulled it out, it happened while it was locked I guess because my screen was black and I couldn't do anything! Thought it died already! This was around 12. Finally I pulled it out of my pocket again at around 3 and it showed the Apple logo and acted like it had just started back up. Which is what always happens after I get stuck playing a game or something. Help please, has happened two or three times just today.

  • IPod Touch Home Button Doesn't Work

    Hi all! My (Fourth Generation) iPod Touch's home button isn't working as well as it once upon a time did when it was new 2 years ago. I keep having to press it 3-6 time for it to bring me back to the home page. If I hold it down for a few seconds and then press the home button, it most of the time works. There are many questions similar to this but I wanted to start my own. More opportunities to get points right!
    So, Any Ideas?

    - You can turn on Assistive Touch: Settings > General > Accesibility
    - You can repair for:
    iPod 4G - 8 GB - 99$
    iPod 4G - 32 GB - 149$
    iPod 4G - 64 GB - 199$

  • 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.
