My iPod Touch power button is stuck and will not pop back up. My iPod Touch Repairs and Service Coverage is still active, Does that mean I can get a new iPod Touch?
Apple will most likely exchange it. The one you receive will be refurbished.

IPod touch home button jammed?!
Hello, this morning I came to my ipod touch, only to find that the home button was jammed!! By jammed, i mean it is stuck a little too far into the home button socket, and takes an enormous amount of pressure for the iPod to register that it has been pushed. I am currently out of warranty, so should I try to find a "do-it-yourself-guide?" or should I take it in to Apple Store or Best Buy? Thanks so much and ill be looking foward to what you have to say!
~Benthis is my first post but my names daniel <Edited by Host>

My home button gets stuck and some days it wont work at all what shall i do?
My home button is not repsonsive, I have booked it at the Genuis Bar to be look at as it it still under waranty, but until then there is a way of adding a virtual button that allows you to bypass the home button. Thought I would share this with you all, as after looking everywhere on the internet I havn't found anyone mention it.
First make sure you are on version 5
got to SETTING>GENERAL>ACCESSIBILITY>ASSISTIVE TOUCH
You will then have a button on the bottom right hand corner screen that is always there (you can move it around if its in the way). Pressing it will allow you to go to the home screen. -

My Ipod 4g home button is stuck!
My ipod home button is stuck and i really dont wanna have to take it to the store i just went there in the spring to replace my first one. i cant get it unstuck ive tried blowing in it and pushing it down really hard and then releasing it fastly but to no avail it rarely responds now and its driving me insane. any suggestions?
Tried the alcohol for a couple of days and it was only temporary fix.
To get a home button on your screen, go to Settings--> General-->Assistive Touch, under Settings/General /Accesability...
That will give you a little button on your screen that acts as a home button. -

Ipod touch home button stuck and the power will not turn on
Can someone help me? My daughter's ipod touch 4th generation has a stuck home button. We have changed the settings so that the alternate home button is on the screen; however, while she was using it earlier, the ipod shut off and will not turn back on. We have tried to plug it in, hold the power button, etc. Since the home button doesn't work, we can't hold the power and home buttons simultaneously as recommended. Any other ideas?
