What do I do if my iPod Touch 5th Gen home button is stuck? I don't really want to have to pay to get it fixed unless I have to. Any suggestions?

I dropped my iPod the other day and quickly picked it up. It looked fine, but when I tried to use the home button, I found that I had to press much harder to use it. I tried to use it recently and it just decided to not work for me. I can't use the home button but I can still turn it on and off and use the touch screen; I just cant navigate between apps now. Anyone have suggestions for how I can fix this without having to pay to do so?

Ipod touch 5th gen tilt function not working

Hi
I recently got a replacement (from apple) for my Ipod Touch 5th Gen 64gb due to the home button being broken. It is running the latest software which I believe is IOS 8.1.1
Note - other than the broken button I had absolutely no issues with my old Ipod.
When I received the Ipod only 3 days ago I did the normal process of restoring from back up etc but have noticed that the tilt function is not working.
I have tried all the obvious solution - first being checking portrait orientation isn't locked, then resetting the Ipod via holding down lock and home button and finally I have done a factory reset and still have had no luck with this issue. Is there an easy fix to this or am I going to have to go back to the Apple store?
Thanks

If you successfully restored (went through all steps without error) to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

Trying to upload to youtube a 16:9 video through my ipod touch 4th gen and its not working.

Hey i have managed to download the Imovie for the Ipod touch 4th Gen, I can't seem to export or upload to youtube a 16:9 screen just a very thin screen. I don't have a apple mac, I have windows vista. I realise for some features you have to use a apple mac. So is there anyway that I can fix this problem, thank you for your time and patience.

Ipad 3rd gen home button not working

any suggestions? The iPad is out of warranty. It has been not working for sometime. I've kept in clean, great codition. It is definitely a bug. I am annoyed that apple did not have a recall as I see many people having this same issue. I have an original 1st gen iPad that we use for a TV remote and there is never been an issue with the home button not responding.
PLease help!

Enable AssistiveTouch which floats a virtual button on-screen which can mimic all hardware buttons on the device:
Settings>General>Accessibility>AssistiveTouch: turn ON
*Note* If your Sleep/Wake (power) button is not functioning and you power off the device using the AssistiveTouch panel (tap the on-screen AssistiveTouch button, Device>Lock Screen (tap and hold to power off)), you will NOT be able to power on the device with the Sleep/Wake (power) button (since it's not functioning). To power on the device in this case, you will need to connect the powered off device either to a PC's USB port or an external charger to power the device back on.

IPod Touch 1st Gen Home Screen Button

Hi,
this is my second iPod touch, my first one which I brought in September 2007 was replaced after about 9 months after Apple were unable to fix it, so my current iPod has long ran out of warranty.
My new problem is that for the last 2 months, the home screen button has become very wiggly, and it had to be pushed in a certain angle or a number of times before it would actually work, now it doesn't work at all. To change app I have to turn it off, then back on which takes around 4 minutes.
I've already searched, but found no sufficient answers, has anyone else had this problem and has it been fixed? I would like to send it back to Apple, but I've heard they charge a lot and I could probably near enough buy a new iPod for the same price...
Thank you

IPod Touch (1st gen) simply doesn't work anymore. Help?

Horrible day it's been. I wake up and unplug my iPod Touch from its charger. The iPod Touch says it is fully charged. I go to school for a few hours, and come back. My iPod Touch's battery is completely drained. It was completely off, and it drained. I ignore it and recharge my iPod. While charging, I try to access the internet, but Wi-Fi wouldn't work. So, as usual, I went to my settings. Instead of going to Settings > Wifi > and then selecting my connection, I was stopped. The Wifi subcatagory on the Settings catagory was greyed out.
It said "Wifi No Wifi." This never happened before. I go right next to my router, to see if it's my router's problem. Still no wifi. I turn on my laptop to see if there's wifi connection, and there is. It's the iPod's problem.
I go to the iPod Touch support page, and it gives me the 5 R's: Restart, Reset, Retry, Reinstall, Restore. I restart my iPod. No difference. Wifi still wouldn't work. I hook it up to my computer, and try to restore my iPod. It says there is a software problem. I reset my iPod. I'm not quite sure what it did, but somehow it fixed the software problem. So as I am restoring my iPod, it reinstalls the software, which took about 3 hours to download. When I come back to check up on my iPod, all the music and apps are erased. And worst of all, the Wifi still won't work.
I ignore it and figure that I would just have to live without Wifi and I'll just put my music back on. I rehook up my iPod Touch to my computer, and iTunes does not even recognize it as a device. All my iPod Touch does while hooked up to my computer is charge. So I restart my computer and replug in my iPod Touch. No difference.
So now I have an iPod which has no music, no videos, and no apps.
The iPod Touch is not able to even put on music, videos, or apps.
There is still no Wifi.
All it does is tell me the time.
And you know what? It's the wrong time. It's 2 minutes too early.
Now, I understand, my iPod Touch is out of warranty, and after a few years, electronic devices stop working. That's not the main reason I am upset.
The main reason I am upset is that my iPod Touch had a problem, and so I went to the website for instructions on what to do. The 5 steps it told me to do made the situation worse. The 5 steps it told me to do made my iPod Touch go from simply something with a poor battery and no wifi, to something with poor battery, no wifi, no music, no videos, and no apps.
If I were to bring this into an Apple store, would I be entitled to at least a discount on a new device?

After resetting ipod touch 1st gen, it will not register to itunes anymore. How do I fix this?

I reset my ipod 1st gen and all settings after it started getting finiky when trying to open apps and it wouldnt let me download apps from the store. But when I tried to connect my ipod to the computer again it would only register to my PC but not to itunes like before. I dont know how to open my ipod through itunes nor how to install itunes onto my ipod again. On my ipod it shows the connect to itunes screen. Is my ipod bricked? What does this even mean and how do I fix this? I have windows 8 if that helps

See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Featurs appin the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause
iTunes for Windows: Device Sync Tests
- Try on another computer to help determine if computer or iPod problem

Ipod touch 3rd gen home button and power button broken?

My iPod was working fine until a few weeks ago, when this started happening: every time you push the home button, it goes to the "slide to power off" screen, and then no matter if you slide to power off or if you click cancel, it shuts off after a few seconds and then tries to turn back on again. The same thing happens if you push the power/lock button for any amount of time. So, I can only run like 1 app unless I want to have to restart my whole iPod. In addition, sometimes when it tries to turn back on it tells me to plug it into iTunes, which I do and it tells me to restore it. I restored it, and then I unplugged it and it did the same exact thing, where any button press makes it turn off. I plugged it in again and it asked me to restore it again. Nothing seems to be working and I don't know if this is something that can be fixed or if I need a replacement?

You can turn it on via the Power button or by connecting the iPod to a charging source.
