IPhone and iPad Constantly return to the Home Screen
My iPhone AND iPad constantly quits mail, pandora, and may other apps and returns to the home screen. It also does the same in the middle of typing emails. I have spent four months back and forth to the Apple Store with no success. The attitude has been well...I don't know what's wrong. Now the warranty is up. Any advise or options?
You name it, I have done it, multiple times. I have restored and set up as a new device every trip(4) to the Apple Store and on my own several times. The store has also reset the firmware twice. I have spent about 10 hours at different stores tech with no resolve. This all started when icloud came out.

Does not return to the Home screen after you press the Home button
The buttons do wear out, and when they do you'd need to get the phone serviced.

My iPad2 will not work on my home wi-fi. My iPhone, my wife's iPhone and iPad all work just not my iPad. It will however work when I set up a hot spot on my iPhone. Any ideas?
Try restarting your WiFi router by removing power for 30 seconds.
On your iPad use Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings
If you need more help please give the make, model and version of the WiFi router that you are using.
Does your router have the latest firmware from the manufacturer installed?
What IOS levels are in use on your various iDevices? -
I have an iPhone 4S - software up to date on all counts, operating under IOS7. I cannot open iTunes store. Tap on the icon and it immediately flashes
back to its home screen. I have no problem on my iMac or my iPad 4 -- just the iPhone 4S.Sounds like the device was dropped at some point and damaged as a result.
Take it to Apple for evaluation and a replacement. -
Repeated return to the home screen
My iPhone is constantly returning to the home screen when I am using the safari or maps. Network (Wi-Fi/Edge) does not matter. Any suggestions. thanks
I am having the same issue with my iPhone. Seems to happen on either Edge or Wifi. Also seems to happen when I am pinching or scrolling around the screen (at least in Safari).
This has started to happen more often (now to the point of being annoying) in just the last couple of days. My phone is not quite a month old.
Did a reset of settings to see if this helps at all. -
When using Safari, my iPad 1 will end Safari and return to the home screen for no apparent reason, any ideas as to cause and solution?
See if the following help.
Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies And Data and also Clear History
If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
Turning off iCloud and multitasking gestures on the iPad might also help. -
I downloaded the ios 6 on my iphone. I'm having problems with applications. When I open any application, in seconds then closes and returns to the home screen. What could be happening?
Did you change any AppleID accounts or anything? I've seen this happen when changing accounts or certain restore situations.
If you are using iCloud you should be able to reset your phone to Factory Defaults and restore from iCloud, but it always makes me nervous. -
When I try to copy paste my app freezes and returns to the home screen please help.
Try resetting ...
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that didn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
Then restart your iPhone. -

I am having an issue where safari keeps crashing and returning to the home screen on an ipad1
safari on my ipad1 keeps crashing and returning to the home screen. rebooting does not fix the problem neither has a full reset through itunes from a backup or setting up as a new machine. Cab nay body help?
If restoring from a backup doesn't help, you must have something corrupt in the backup - like a Safari bookmark perhaps - or something in the Safari history. Try the last tip in this list first.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Close Safari and all apps. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus (-) sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Cache. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button. -

Help pleaseYour Settings app is crashing. Sometimes, the only way to fix this is by restoring the iOS software but hopefully it will not come to that.

Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle.

Why does my ipad repeatedly return to the home page
My first generation ipad mysteriously returns from apps to the home page without warning. Can't seem to figure out what is causing this. Sometimes after I reset the ipad it will be OK for a while but starts again soon.
Try closing all apps and then reboot the iPad.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
This might help for Safari as well. Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data. -
When I open an app, it exits out of the app and returns to the home screen.
When I open up apps, it exits out and returns to the home screen.
That's not true. In most cases this is a memory issue and in some cases simply a bug. Most often it can be corrected by either resetting the iPad or closing all other apps and restarting the app in question.
You can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears. -
Just bought a new 4th gen iPod Shuffle for my kid. Problem is I cannot do the initial set up, as the device does not show up on iTunes on my PC. Also the charging does not light up. Any ideas on what could be wrong, as I am able to see both my iphone and iPad on iTunes using the same PC?
I also tried manually underlining a few things on the new iPad and when highlighting a paragraph, it would skip a few lines and the line would go through a few as well. Looks like a major iBooks glitch needs to be addressed here.
