My home AND power button have stopped working.

i was deleting apps in settings and hit the home button but nothing happened. I used my assistive touch to hit the home button, but again, nothing happened. i was still able to navigate the settings menu, go in and out of the differents settings options and files, but i couldnt get out of the settings app and back to the home. i then hit the power butting on top and still, nothing happened. although i have already been having issues with that button getting jammed. i went into assistive touch agiain and went to devices then hit lock screen. now i cant turn the screen back on. my music is still playing and i can hear notifications popping up, but i have no way to turn the screen back on. everything is working but the screen wont come on. the volume buttons work and so does the silence switch. what do i do!? i need my phone and dont have the monet to buy a new one!

Hello skdog I possibly think your ipod touch is black because it has not charged. If your dock is broken it might just mean the dock will be broken and so might be the USB port. You should see an Apple shop nearby and hand it over and see what they can do. I hope this information works!

I don't suppose you have an external keyboard. If you do, test it. If not, try booting in safe mode (shift key down at startup.)

The hold button and volume buttons have stopped working on my iTouch 4. How can I fix it?

I've only had it for about 6 months. It's never been dropped or abused in any way. All of the sudden, the buttons just stopped working. How can I fix it? Please help!!

The issue with the battery is a problem. The last battery I purchased was at the end of September, so it is NOT old. I would think that a battery would last longer than 6 months, considering the original one lasted up until that point. Granted it would not hold as much of a charge, but it still worked at least. So, at this point, I would think it would be a problem with the laptop and not the battery. I have asked a few friends of mine, who are IT professionals and they said that it is probably an issue with the internal power supply. I've also tried replacing the AC adapter and that did not work either. As you said, you get what you pay for. Since I paid a good price for this laptop I would think it would last longer than it has. The other 2 I have do not have this issue. The DV5215us is on it's second battery, which is reasonable, and it does not have this charging problem. The tx1115nr also does not have this problem and is still on its original battery. One would think that since the earlier generations of product would have more problems than the latter, but I guess that is not the case.
Like I stated eariler I am rough on my laptops and I should probably look at ones that are built more rigid.

I have reached out to this community as my Iphone display gone black and got the solution to keep home and power button pressed. It worked but I would like to know why it went black

I have reached out to this community as my Iphone display gone black and got the solution to keep home and power button pressed. It worked but I would like to know
1. Why it went black and is there a permanent fix for this
2.Will the IOS gets automatically updated as I feel the IOS was 5 when I got the phone in 2012 december
3.Do you suggest 7.1 for Iphone 4

1. There is no way of knowing. These things happen.
2. The iOS only gets updated when you want it to be.
3. You should always update to the latest iOS your phone will support. Apple do not write the updates to make your experience worse.

Are you restoring as new?

My power button has stopped working - seems to have lost it's 'spring'. My phone is over a year old and out of warrenty - any options?

My power button has stopped working - seems to have lost it's 'spring'. My phone is over a year old and out of warrenty - any options? It also seems to be going thru the battery in less than a day which was never the case. Are these two situations related?

I don't know if they are related or not, but I'd take it in to an Apple store. They might be gracious and offer to replace it, or at the least, it may be eligible for an out-of-warranty replacement at a reduced fee (currently $149.00 for the iPhone 4, 3Gs, 3G, and original - you get a refurb as replacement).

My iphone keeps blocking in a "boot" mode... blackscreen with apple logo... the restarting (home and power button for 10 sec) doesn't work.

Please help....
On belhalf of my fellow volunteers, the answer is, "We'll try our best."
My advice is to try not to treat this like it is a paid service provided by compensated professionals. Ask nicely and one of the nice folks here might take some time out of their weekend to offer advice.

Hello, my iPad's power button has stopped working. Does anyone have a solution as to how I can make it work again

Please help. My iPads power button has stopped working. I cannot take it to sleep mode or switch it off

Try a reset even though the Sleep/Wake button is not woring.
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: Data will not be affected.

Go through the steps here and see if anything works for you.

You might have to bite the bullet and restore the device if nothing else works. If that doesn't bring it back to life, make an appointment at an Apple Store and let take a look at it.

My ipod 3g home and power button wont work!

Last night I woke up to find my ipod touch on. IT was probably on for 4-5 hours. I pressed the sleep button but nothing happened. I pressed it over and over but no luck. So I tried press the home and power button on at the same time but nothing happened. Eventually it went to sleep and restarted and the home button worked but not the sleep. I restarted it again and now both of the buttons dont work. I restarted it at least 4 times. Eventually the home but will work but it lags about 40 seconds. During the night my ipod would shut off, shut on, picture, shutt off shut on, picture etc etc. I dont think the buttons are totally busted and I feel like I can fix it. I haven't tried putting it into itunes yet. Someone please help!

Can anyone help me please? My ipod has a white screen that i cant get rid off. I have tried pressing home and power button at same time. I have tried a restore from itunes and its still the same. I cant even turn it off. Please someone help me.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- 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 and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
