My iPod touch 4G home button is broken, but i live in Puerto Rico, what should I do?

I got my iPod touch 4G for almost 4 months. Apparently I got one year of warranty from Apple. My iPod touch home button do not respond very well. I keep pressing it a lots of times but this don't resolve anything. I live in Puerto Rico and when I was doing the waranty process in the Apple.com, when I put my adress, it said to me that the type of service that I'm trying to do, doesn't work in my location. This is the first time that I try to do this and I don't know what to do. This is not my first iPod, and everytime I bought one, thay say that I got one year of warranty with Apple. If someone know what should I do, please let me know. Thanks. (me pueden contestar en ingles como en español)

If AppleCare is not available in Puerto Rico and the same for an Apple retail store, you can contact an Apple Authorized Service Provider.

Is there a size difference between iPod Touch 1G home button and other versions of iPod Touch?

I have an old iPod Touch 1G home button that got stuck. So I bought a new home button to replace it and I'm having trouble fitting it in the hole that I'm replacing. I'm not sure the new button I have is for iPod Touch 1G or for other iTouch versions.
Does anyone know where I find a video how to replace iPod Touch home button and where can buy the home button if the button I have is not for 1G?

How to fix ipod touch 4g home button(jammed)

How to fix ipod touch 4g home button(jammed)?

Hey! So I found out this free way to be able to use the home button with no cost! It won't unjam it, but using this method you will have a touchscreen homebutton.
Directions:
1. Go to Settings
2. Go to General
3. Scroll down and go to Accessibility
4. Scroll down and go to Assistive Touch
5. Then turn assistive touch on.
What you will see is a little white circle on the screen. When you tap this circle you have the Home button option(which functions all the ways of your jammed home button). As well as a few other options; Device, Favorites and Gestures. You can move that circle about the screen for your convenience. This is just a way to have a home button without paying to restore.

Yesterday my iPod touch's home button would not work and to day it is completely turned off and wont turn back on and it is fully charged and when i connect it to itoons it dosent reckinise it

Given the information supplied, it sounds very similar to what happened to my wife's 4. Locked up...came back on with a blank (bluish) screen...could here emails and text coming through. It would get very hot as well. Our local apple store tried two times to rescue it, ultimately rendering it complete inoperable. I'm sorry to say in our case we had to buy a refurb and trade in the phone for $150, which actually wasn't a bad deal.
There could be other information I'm missing, but I would start with seeing if apple can restore your phone. If they can't, then I'm pretty sure it's dead.

When i plug my headphones into my ipod touch 5 i cant hear any music i tried 2 different headphones what should i do

when i plug my headphones into my IPOD touch 5 i cant hear any music i tried 2 different headphones what should i do

Hey Ehlam Managua, You have tried a different set of headphones, still no joy-- OK. (1st step in trouble shooting completed). Just to be clear the sound still works through the speaker, correct? If so, try quickly plugging / unplugging the headphone jack about 12 times, there is a tiny switch inside the port that may be stuck closed. If so the plugging / unplugging should free it up. If still no joy, have you tried turning your iPod off then turn it back on? If that doesn't work go into Setting>General>Reset then tap Reset All Settings. If still no joy, connect with your computer, make a full set of backups from this iPod to your computer, then Restore to Backup. If still won't work, Restore to New. If still nothing, could be dealing with a hardware issue. Contact your Apple store and set up an appointment to have your iPod evaluated.

My iPod Touch 5 home button has lost all sensitivity. What should I do?

I own a blue iPod Touch 5Gen running iOS 7.0.2. I am experiencing sensitivity problems with its home button. Really taking its toll on my thumb. Will Apple India replace the iPod or the home button for me? It is still under warranty but I have bought it in California. I would hate to make an unnecessary trip to an Apple store. Fast answers will be appreciated!

My ipad battery and home button are broken but I have no insurance

I got a keyboard for my ipad and since using it the battery has gone. It takes around 8 hours to charge and the drains in 1 hour. You can't use it whilst it is charging either. Also the button has stopped working so I can't use that. Does anyone have a rough idea on how much this will cost as I have no insurance on it? Thanks

If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5s. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
You will find respective repair costs in the appropriate link:
iPod Service Support and Costs
iPhone Service Support and Costs
iPad Service Support and Costs
There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
1. iResq or Google for others.
2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit

Is there a way to fix an iPod touch 4G home button that isn't stuck but just doesn't work?

A couple weeks ago my home button got stuck. To fix it I found this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yBfhCmq9VkA&list=WL429346A18D0B1E65 to help me out. The second option of using the charger ended up working, thus making the button work again. It was working fine after doing that but then it got stuck down again and I had to put the charger in and do that again. However, all of a sudden the home button just doesn't work anymore. It's not even stuck all the way down. I can press it repeatedly but still nothing.
I've had the iPod for about 6 months now and got it off of amazon refurbished so warranty is out of the question i'm sure. If it really is broken with no way to fix it then that's fine as i've been using assitive touch for weeks now and am used to it since i've been using it egulary since there's no other way. I just wanted to ask and make sure first before anything else though.

IPod Touch 5 home button, power button and charging not working!!

I have an iPod Touch 5 I got last year for Christmas, so it's about an year old. The home button has not been working recently so I tried everything to fix it but nothing worked. We took it to places to get it fixed but it costed a fortune that I would have bought a new iPod Touch instead. I just used the Assistive Touch instead. Then today I was using my iPod Touch and I turned it off. About a minute later I went to get my iPod Touch and used it again and threw it on the bed because that's what I always do and it never breaks. Then a few minutes later, I got my iPod Touch from my bed and I tried to turn it on but it wouldn't budge. Then I remembered it had low battery so it must have shut down because it had no more battery power left. I charged my iPod Touch and tried to turn it on a again but i wouldn't. It would normally turn on and show the Apple Logo and go directly to the lock screen but it just stayed black. I searched up how to fix this but the only way to turn it back on is doing something with the home button but I couldn't since it was broken. I tried to find computer but they were all occupied and the only that wan't occupied was a Chromebook but it my USB couldn't fit in because it was too big. I try to find other ways but there was nothing that could work. I think my iPod Touch isn't charging because whenever I charge my iPod and it has no battery power left, it would usually turn on by itself. I really don't want to go out and fix my iPod at a store because it'll cost a fortune. Please help!! Thank you

Turn on without Home/Power Button
You need a computer with iTunes which rules out a Chromebook

Can somebody confirm this for me: The iPod Touch's home button is smaller

than the iPhone's home button.
I don't know if it's just my imagination or what. But I swear it is. I also notice it's much more "clicky" whereas the iPhone's is more "soft" when you push it.

I'm sure that the "clicky" or "soft" varies from unit to unit.
Why is this important to you?
We have bought an iPod Touch 3rd Gen and an iPhone 3GS.
The iPod has a much louder "clickier" button. Very annoying compared to the "soft" iPhone button.
Does anybody else has this issue with iPod Touch?
My iPod button clicks. I like it; that way I know I've clicked it. It's not annoyingly loud but it does click.
