ITunes Music and Home button not responding

Itunes Music & Home button not responding all other content OK when music button clicked displays the following "The item you've requested is not currently available in the UK store"

I haven't read this whole post - in fact I almost stopped reading any of these post. I read all the horrors look over at my own phone (which is working correctly at the moment) and wonder when it is going to go belly up.
jyoz, Try doing a DFU and setting up as new. I don't believe that "Restore" goes deep enough to clear the bad code.
Do you also have poor battery life?
The reason I ask is I am starting to believe there is a piece of code that is corrupt and running at near 100% CPU usage.
If this is the case it sort of explains button, icons and poor battery life.
There is one other suggestion that I have read that says delete all email accounts and reset/erase all. Then go to DFU and setup as a new phone. This procedure probably gives you the best chance of clearing out the Bad Code Snippet. Just to defend all this crap that we have to go thru I did get an Apple/at&t support guy tell me that even "Push" on email is/does not always work correctly. Once he realized what he said I could not get him to talk about it anymore - Apple you gotta love-em.
I know you have been thru hoops trying to fix this but you only have two option take it to a store and don't leave until you get a new one that they have updated to 4.1 for you or try some of the extreme suggestion that I am repeating from other post.
Best of luck - and please remember sometime there are failure that you at home are just never going to fix - so if you don't feel like another Excedrin headache GO TO THE STORE AND EXCHANGE IT if for no other reason than to preserve you mental health.

  • Is anyone having trouble with the "home" button not responding after upgrading to 5.1.1 OS?

    Is anyone having problems with the "home" button not responding after upgrading to 5.1.1?

    You will not belive how I accidently solved this - !!!
    Yes I had the problem immediately after the 5.1.1 'cloud' upgrade, the problems started (on my iphone 4) ... I followed the 'get power down button, then hold HOME for 30 secs' solution, but no result, nothing seemed to work and I was starting to get a bit agressive with the keep it pushed, multiple double click frustrations, icopybot multigesture solutions etc. and paid money ... but this comedy solution now works ...
    I discovered it because I ordered a waterproof case for my iphone for my motorcycle ... I've just fitted it to my iphone and all the problems have gone ??? what! ... so wondering why I looked at what the home button on the casing was doing - it was pressing ACROSS the home button i.e. it converted my finger point into a wider 'PRESS
    so taking the new case off, instead of using the point of my thumb to press HOME, I used the flat of my thumb to emulate it ....and initially nothing, so I wondered if it wa making better 'cross button' contacts, so I licked my thumb, wiped it and then tried again! - it worked!
    I can't explain it but it seems to work - try it! if the double click on HOME doesn't work lick your thumb dry it and try again! I've just done it again
    what a mad techno world we live in! :-)

  • Back and home buttons not functioning

    Hi,
    A few days ago, I noticed that the back button on my Lumia 920 failed to respond at times and I'd have to use the home button to escape out of whatever I was doing. Then yesterday, both the back and home buttons failed to work. The search button is still functioning but the phone isn't really usable as the only way to exit an app is to turn the phone off.
    I did a power cycle, a hard reset, and then I returned the phone to factory settings, which put it in a "gears" situation for about 6 hours until I finally got it to boot up again. That didn't fix the button issue.
    Nokia says, since I had the screen locally replaced several months ago,  the phone is no longer under warranty. They wil not repair it at their service center in Texas and my only recourse is to send it to Palco.
    I spoke to Palco and they are unable to give me any information as to whether the phone is repairable. They just want me to spend money to send it to Alabama, give then $15 + shipping to diagnose it - they say it will take 5 - 10 days just to diagnose the problem. I can't be without a phone for 2 weeks if I don't even know if it can be repaired. I'm angry that the only authorized repair center in the U.S. is in Alabama and they have no techs you can speak to on the phone. It's really the worst customer service I've ever seen.
    Has anybody else ever experienced this issue? Were you able to get your phone repaired? I am going to see the guy that replaced the screen for me, but when I spoke to him on the phone he thought it was odd that 1 of the buttons still worked and wasn't at all convinced that he could fix it. He's never seen this problem before.
    Thanks for any guidance,

  • Itunes music and playlist does not sync correctly into iPod touch?

  • IPod touch home button not responding well even after replacement

    Replaced the home button of my 4th gen iPod touch 2 times but no go, I even tried to restore but it still doesn't work. Please any help will be appreciated.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer          
      - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem. Maybe you damaged something when you repaired thw Home button.

  • Black screen and Home button not working !

    Hey guys,
    Here's a little background to my iPhone :
    I've been using an iPhone 4 for about a year now and i'm pretty impressed with it. Recently though, my home button stopped working. The only way you could get it to function is to press the button really really hard. I dint replace the button. My iPhone is jailbroken, so now I have "shake for home button" on my iPhone.
    And now the main problem :
    My iPhone just went blank all of a sudden. Usually when this happens, I try syncing it with my laptop ( I sometimes use black magic ! ) and somehow  it boots back up again. But this time, nothing ! I tried calling my phone and I could actually hear the caller tone ( sometimes it came as a  busy tone and also as "this phone is not reachable") . I tried looking online for a solution and almost everywhere I looked, everyone told me to 'hold the power button.. blah blah', yeah i know the drill. BUT MY HOME BUTTON ISNT WORKING !! So here's my plea to all the iPhone hardware experts out there, PLEASE SAVE ME AND MY iPHONE !
    Thanks in advance !
    Cheers !

  • Assistive touch, lock button, and home button not working!

    I have an iphone 4 that was new as of this past August. My lock button stopped working so I got the assistive touch. But now my home button and assistive touch doesn't work so I am unable to use my phone. I am also unable to turn it off or lock it. Help is appreciated. Thanks

    A broken home and lock button is indeed a big problem. Definitely set your phone never to automatically lock itself. When you are at home, you ca turn of the automatic lock and set it to 1 minute so you can save battery. As long as you are at home (or anywhere you feel comfortable doing this) you can wake your phone by plugging it in to charge. When you can't acess a charger, but want your phone to wake, you will need to schedule reminders. If your phone ever locks and you have no reminders set, get somebody to send you a text.
    Please keep in mind these are all very temporary fixes made to help you last as long as it takes to get a replacement phone as soon as possible.
    GOOD LUCK!

  • IPhone Home Button not working after upgrade to ios 5.1.1

    Hey everyone,
    I'm pretty sure this is a software failure due to the symtoms the iPhone is showing;
    0 - the home button does not work at all when the phone is turned on and running ios 5.1.1, well it used to work okay when i had ios 5.0.1, I upgraded to 5.1.0 and started working randomly, upgraded to 5.1.1 to see if it was fixed with no luck at all.
    1 - When locked the screen does sometime light up, like when you press the home button and don't slide the unlock button. but it does not exit apps anytime, I mean it doesn't act like it's pressing the home button randomly but only when the phone is locked.
    2- The button does work perfectly when iOS is not running: I can get in and get out of recovery and dfu mode at will, that wouldn't be possible if the button were broke.
    3- what else? Oh yea, not really a symtom: Tried the 'home button calibration' several times.
    4 - It's not filthy, since I really cleaned it thoroughly with a powerful tiny nozed air blower I got and gave a rubbing alcohol treatment too.
    5 - when I shut the phone down it instantly turns back on, I can interrupt the turning on for turning the phone into dfu mode (i'm sure It's in DFU mode because the tinyumbrella log monitor tells me)
    I'm now using the 'soft' home button that goes in the accesibility options, but hey, I didn't pay a ton of money for a phone that the same Apple is gonna break down.
    It's out of warranty and I don't have apple stores where I live.
    I'd downgrade to 5.0.1 in a snap if I could but I'm not into jailbreaking, so the shsh blob thingie is not a possibility.
    Any apple dev around that can give me a workaround?
    thanks a lot in advance
    Added more info ~ 

    I had the same problem with Home button not responding after upgrading from iOS 5.1 to iOS 5.1.1 on an iPhone4.   I solved it but not sure exactly what fixed it.   Here is what I did.
    1.  Took it local Apple store Genius appointment.   They used a special tool and took some lint out of the connector opening.   The Home button started working.   They said even though the phone was out of warranty, I could buy a new replacement one without a contract for $150. 
    2.   The Home button stopped working when I got home.   I got some compressed air in a can and blew the air through the connector to try and clean out more dust.   I now keep the phone with the connector opening facing down in my pocket.   I also struck the phone downward on my hand or other soft surface to force as much dust out as possible.
    3.  The Home button still was intermittent.  I then tried to do a hard reset by holding the power on key and the Home button simultaneously for about 10 seconds.  This doesn't work if the Home button doesn't respond.
    4.  I connected the iphone to Itunes via the USB to sync the phone.  While connected, I did a Hard Reset by Holding the Power button and Home button simultaneously.  I noticed the Home button responded better when connected to ITUNES via the USB.
    5.  I did a backup of the iphone4 by highlighting the iphone 4 while connected to ITunes and right mouse click and selecting BACKUP.    I was prepared to reset my phone4 in iTUNES and restore it from the backup.
    The phone worked consistently before I had to do this.
    6.  As a last resort which I didn't need to do, I was going to copy all my settings for the iphone by selecting the phone in iTUNES and looking at all the sync settings.   I would then have restored the iphone to original factory settings and then sync the phone using the copied settings.  This would have made sure that the backup didn't include the bug.
    Fortunately, I didn't have to do step 5 and 6.   Things started working after Step 4.  So I don't really know if it was the iOS 5.1.1 upgrade or pure coincidence that the Home button stopped working immediately after the upgrade.

  • 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.
