My iphone was stolen and we actually recovered it! Is there a way I can tell what the thief might have looked at in the interim? I know about hitting the home button twice to see recently used apps, but what if they then swiped to close them? TIA

Sorry marcia,
There is no way to tell what activity went on on your device when it was out of your hands.
Sorry,

My apps freeze and I can't push the home button to get out of them.

Try a reset. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the red slider.

I have an iPhone 4 and since I updated to iOS6 I must hit the home button several times to return home or sometimes turn off and then back on. Any thoughts? Could this be related to running low on available storage?

Hold the sleep/wake button and the home button until the phone shuts down and let it restart.

After updating to iOS 8, when I hit the home button once it takes me to the "app switcher."

Swipe from bottom of days listed ("Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, etc") upwards. I thought it was gone too but it's still there~just takes different way to access it.

IPod Touch keeps hitting the home button

Before I begin, I have a 32GB 3rd generation iPod Touch. I bought it off of Amazon directly and it arrived January 27 of this year.
And until 2 days ago, I loved it and it worked great. However, now it keeps hitting the home button on its own. It does have a case, but even when the case is removed it continues to be a "phantom." My iPod is not jailbroken or anything. No matter what I do on it, it will eventually hit the home button, which closes me out of what I was doing. I Google'd this before and it said to restart it and or restore it. I have done both and it continues to have this problem. If anyone has a solution to this, PLEASE help me or I will have to call Apple and most likely ship it to them.
Thank you for taking the time to read this.

I talked to an Apple Expert and just brought it to UPS.
Thank you David. I had a 1 year warranty.

It seems that when i hit the home button it brings up a previous webpage i visited, rather disturbingly it is my bank website and tries, i must say tries to login... but does not as my bank has many firewalls. but what is going on and can you help me?

I got on this morning to check my balance as i get a direct deposit from my work. Once i checked my bank i logged off as normal. then hit the home button. It did not direct me to my home. yahoo.com but went instead to msn.com. so i went into my options and reset my home page. Now when i hit my home page it grabs my bank page and adds a new tab to try to open my bank page while i am at my home page. so i must either have some spyware either through a webpage i visited or your software has a leak somewhere someone cracked. please help me with this if it is indeed a problem with mozilla.

I did some googling and found alot of topics from you on this issue, to me it simply seems like on of the connectors is broken or loose.

My iPad 2 will not allow me to update my apps. When I hit the update button I get a spinning circle but then it times out and doesn't update. Please help.

My iPad 2 will not allow me to update my apps. When I hit the update button I get a spinning circle but then it times out and doesn't update. In the past when I have updated successfully, the spinning circle would show me an indicator of time left on the update. I no longer have this Indicator. The circle just spins and times out and nothing happens. I've reset the iPad in the settings menu, reset the router, logged in and out of Apple id, powered ithe iPad off and on, and tried a couple other "fixes" that I've read online. So far no luck. AAny help would be greatly appreciated. Much thanks!

How much free space do you have? If it is low, installers may not be able to run properly.

I go to my settings and i change something and then i hit the home button and it wont let me go home. So i then try to turn my screen of and turn it back on to see if that will help. It will not shut off either. How do i fix this problem?

I have a problem! I go to my settings to change something and then i hit the home button to go home and it will not let me. So I hit the button on the top to turn it off to see if i can make it anybetter. My screen will not turn off! I tried to shut it off and it wont let me do that either. So now i am stuck in my iPod settings until my iPod dies. How do i fix this problem?

A reset may help. Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off buttons for approximately 15-20 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears, release both buttons.
No content is affected by this procedure.

Since I updated my iPad 2 to OS 8, when I hit the home key, I get a "sign in to iCloud" message. When I enter my password, it doesn't take it but Settings shows I'm signed in to iCloud.....not sure why

Try signing out and signing back into iCloud. This worked for me.

Hitting the home button twice!

When I hit the home button twice the bottom row lights up. When I hold down on any of the icons the delete mode pops up. When I hit delete it deletes the icon(s) then i hit the home button to go back to the home screen the icon is still there. Im not actually trying to delete the icon, someone told me by doing this it turnes off that icon or something! Can anyone explain what this does?

That action just tells the OS to "close" the application. Normally iOS handles this automatically as it needs memory, but you can force them to close manually with that action. I routinely do this to reduce background cellular & GPS usage, but for the most part I allow iOS to manage these recently used applications as it sees fit.
To remove an application touch and hold its icon on the home screen until it starts to "jiggle", at that point all installed applications will have an X in a circle in their upper left hand corner. Touching that X on any app will remove it from the device.

Multiple Tab Home refresh issue, I would like to not get 6 new tabs to open when I hit the home button, I would like it to refresh the six tabs I already have open back to the saved settings. Internet explorer does this.

I like to have my home button restore multiple tabs for me. Sometimes I close some of the default tabs or they move from their default pages. Based on my experience with internet explorer I first select the left most tab and then hit the home button. It restores all saved tabs in the default. With Firefox is always opens brand new tabs and moves the existing ones to the right. Is there a setting to make it not open all new tabs.

That's the way the Homepage button works in Firefox, it reloads one tabbed homepage and opens all the rest of your homepages in new Tabs, appending the Tabs that are already open.
IIRC, the TabMix Plus extension has an option to reload your Homepages in existing tabs.

Bluetooth summons Siri but she won't respond until I hit the Home button.

Using a Motorola Bluetooth headset, the call button summons Siri just fine. However, when I ask her to do something, nothing happens until I hit the Home button. Not very "hands free".

Not all bluetooth headsets will support Siri and phone commands. You might want to check with Motorola support to see if that particular model will support all of Siri's services. It could be that it would support voice commands, but since you have Siri active it will activate Siri but not allow giving it commands.

HT1848 recently, when syncing my iPhone I transferred iPhone purchases to my library. Apparently I hit the wrong button and wiped out my old iTunes library on my PC. How do I get it back?

recently, when syncing my iPhone I transferred iPhone purchases to my library. Apparently I hit the wrong button and wiped out my old iTunes library on my PC. How do I get it back?

I cant find any of my recently bought songs or the apps i have purchased. When I was updating my ipod there was a button that asked about transfering purchases and I didnt read it, and I didnt update manually so i think thats why i lost everything. I clicked on the intrustions and clicked on apps and i coulnt find any of my old stuff.

IF i'm on a call and try to use the internet function, I get an error message. Is this normal?

Depending on your carrier, with AT&T there shouldn't be a problem.
If you with Verizon, you will need to be on Wifi, to do that.
