My camera just rotates then goes to home screen

my camera just rotates then goes to home screen. how can i stop it?

Thanks for reaching out to us, patti3cats. I depend on my camera on my cell phone for everything. Are you using the normal camera app that came with the phone? Or are you using a 3rd party application? How long has this been going on for? Have you been able to power the device off for a few minutes and then power it back on? Also, do you get any kind of errors when the phone takes you back to the main screen? Please keep me posted.

Several times over the last few days while on safari my iPad spontaneously shuts off screen goes dark then goes to home screen what's going on and how do I fix it when I look at settings diagnostics it says that there is low memory ?

Safari crashes several times while on pinterest, screen goes black then goes to home screen when I start safari again it keeps doing the same thing. I checked the diagnostics page and there are several references stating low memory yet when I check the memory on the iPad there is plenty of memory help please

The memory that is low is the processor memory, not the overall storage space. Next time, before you go to that site, double tap the home button to see the task bar. You will see the list of apps siting in the recently used list. Most of them are not doing anything, but some of them are using up memory. Touch and hold any one of them until they jiggle, then close them all off by touching the minus sign.
Do that every so often to help the pad use it's memory wisely.
Some apps, and browser pages use a lot of memory, and do not give it back easily, causing what sis happening to you.
You can also get a similar result by rebooting. Press and hold the home and sleep buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider.

IPod Touch freezes while playing music then goes to home screen. HELP!!

I JUST got my 32gb iPod Touch last week, and it only started recently to do this. I will play songs from my playlist, it will go through about 4 songs, then right when it switches, the screen freezes, music stops, and it goes to the home screen. Does anyone know what is going on?? I read that some users had this problem when they had too many applications open, but all I am doing is playing music. Any help would be appreciated!

I had the same trouble w/ my iPod Touch 16GIG Gen 1 & it seemed to be worse after upgrading the software/firmware to Version 2.1; to the point where I was arranging to get it back to The Apple Store before it was 30 days old. The trouble seems to be worse as I approached 14GIG's of filled memory. I mostly have audio, but a few movies are loaded also. But I couldn't view the album art from end to end & it would also freeze & go back to the home screen after about 5 seconds of audio from an audio track intermittently. It was frustrating.
I used the HOME button on the top of the iPod to shut it down {holding it till the 'slide to power off' screen comes up & then doing the slide. Then using the HOME button to turn the iPod back on - seeing the cracked white apple when it reboots & starts back up. I haven't had any more trouble in iTunes. Maybe this reboot cleans up the memory of the iPod & a fresh reboot gives the OS a clean bill of health to look at the 14 GIGs of content that I've added in.
Give the Home button a try & let us know.
Best of Luck-
Doug

My iPad 2 screen goes blank then goes to home screen on it's own. How do I fix it?

My iPad 2 screen goes blank then goes to the home screen on its own. Any application I was using is closed when the home screen reappears. How do I fix this?

Try a Reset...
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.
If no joy... Try a Restore...
1: Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.
3: If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try using the steps in this article to force the device into recovery mode.

TS1538 When surfing or working on my iPad mini, frequently my applications close and it goes the home screen.

When surfing or working on my iPad mini, frequently my applications close and it goes the home screen. This problem started about a week ago. I did do a hard reset.

Make sure you do not leave a lot of apps open in the iOS multitasking bar.
Dbl click the Home button, look to see now many apps that are still active in the multitask bar.
You can safely quit some of these by holding your finger on one app until all the icons wiggle.
Tap the red dash in the upper left corner to quit each app from running. Then just tap anywhere else on the iPad's screen or single click the Home button to stop the wiggling and close the Multitask bar.
Good Luck!

My ipod touch ( Gen 4 ) goes to home screen when loading a app, and sometimes in the middle of the app. Any ideas how to fix this? One game won't load at all now. Thanks in advance for the help..

I have had this touch for almost a year. It suddenly starts going to home screen in middle of app, or when loading the app. Contract Killers has worked fine since I dowloaded it, but is not loading at all now. If I restore, will I be able to get my progress back from the backup?

Reset did not work. Just completed the restore, seems to have fixed the other apps from going back to the home page, but not Contract Killer.. I assume it is now a error on Glu's part. Hopefully they will resolve the issue. Thank you so much for your response.

Text vanishes midway typing in mail/text/notes and it goes to home screen.

Text vanishes midway typing in mail/text/notes after uptading iPhone 4 to iOS 7.1.1, and it goes to home screen.

Thanks, I just tried that, no luck. I had already tried regular power off and reboot. It just goes off randomly, sometimes after just one word or if I am lucky I am able send out a short message before it goes off. It goes off typing in any of the apps.

How can I switch between apps without going to home screen?

Is there anyway to switch between apps with one tap? (ie. without going to home screen first). Kind of like a command-tab feature.
Steve

Well, you can have one app that you can get to with a double push of the home button (set in settings which you want), but I think it's only your contacts list, or your ipod app. Still useful though.

I was watching something on my iPad then it suddenly turned off I put it in charge and it turned back on then showed the home screen then turns back off quickly so I can't restore it

IPhone goes to home screen while surfing

while in safari surfing, my iPhone auto goes to home screen. What's the problem? It is a pain while composing emails or even this MSG as it usually causes me to have to log back in and start over

When it goes back to the home screen that means the application has crashed. Try going to settings - safari and empty caches/cookies/etc to see if this will correct the issue.

Safari goes to home screen as soon as i attempt to put in website since update

Please advise any fixes, as soon as i go to safari and enter a search it goes to home screen but frequently viewed sites still works.

Hi there rrfaff,
You may want to try force closing all open apps and resetting the device as an initial troubleshooting step. Take a look at the articles below for more information.

Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
