Ipod touch home screen button.

My cousins fourth generation ipod touch's home button has gotten stuck and it wont move or push down...is it permanent? is there an easy way to fix it? or if not, wat is another way i can try to send it in?

My best suggestion would be to bring it into the Apple Store because they have the tools to try and fix it. The good news in, the ipod is probably still under 1 year warranty, so they can send it back to be fixed as good as new.

  • How to edit the buttons on iPod Touch home screen

    How do you move around/delete icons on the iPod Touch home screen?

    Hold one of the buttons until they all wiggle, drag around as desired (also to new home screens) and press home button to stop the madness.
    This is all provided, however, that you have the 2.0 or the January Upgrade.
    Hope this helps.

  • IPod Touch Home Screen

    Hi
    I just wondered if its possible to have your home screen in landscape mode? Use the accelerometer with it? Or if not, will it ever be possible or likely to be integrated? Thanks.

    It's not currently possible. Whether it ever will be is something only Apple would know and they're not saying.

  • 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
