Nothing happens when I hit the home button

When I press on the home button, it will not take me back to the home page. Instead I'm stuck in an app (ie, mail, messages, phone etc). The button does press inwards when pressed but it doesn't change the screen.

The iPhone has a hardware problem.
Make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby.

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.

Down load fron the Internet OmniDiskSweeper (free) and open it. It will show you all of your files and the respective sizes.
In addition, click on your HDD icon in the upper right hand corner of your desk top with COMMAND I (I as in the letter i). What does it say about the space used and available.

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.

Hi helpcmo,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your free app isn't downloading, first try restarting the iPhone:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Next, you may want to verify whether the issue is due to the iTunes Store connection:
Can't connect to the iTunes Store

If the behavior persists, try the remaining steps in our iPhone assistant:

All the best,

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.

When i hit the home button on any particular page, the home page appears on the bar, but it just sits there, doing nothing with a blank screen....

when i activate a web page from the home netzero homepage, and then try to go back to the home page by way of the home button, nothing happens. The status bar says it is trying to go there, but the screen is totally blank white and just sitting there. this happens no matter where i activate a page from, the home button just does not work. thank you in advance for any input .

Verify that the battery is charged (connect to the supplied charger & cable for a couple of hours).
Reset your device:
Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

Nothing happens when I click the buy button????

I've located the song I want. but when I press "buy" nothing happens. I've tried updating my itunes, but it says I'm using the current model.

Cross-posted wherever I can find this question, because I just solved it for myself, at least.
Lots of people are having this problem; it seems to be endemic across Mac Users. I think 12/26/12 is when some sort of disastrous iTunes programming change was made. Ironically, I was fine when I was using Leopard (10.5.8)--the temporary upgrade to Snow Leopard's initial system (straight off the install disc) a couple of days ago killed the Buy Button… until I checked "Software Update" (on the Apple Menu), it found a free upgrade to 10.6.8, and the problem's gone. Check Software Update to see what kind of system upgrade you can install for free, and that may well fix it. I think it's a new iTunes issue with older systems, but if you do whatever free upgrade Apple has for you, it might well work.
Holy Jesus God does Apple need to fix this soon--and I suspect they will, because it's costing them a lot of business. Another variation of this question got *42* "I have this problem"s.

Nothing happens when I press the right button on the desktop

Hello,
I installed Windows 8.1 on my laptop a few months ago and since then it's been working quite well. But lately there's one thing that has been bothering me - whenever I try to open the desktop menu by pressing the right button of my touchpad, nothing
will happen. It seems that it's loading, but in fact it never really loads. I consider this an inconvenience and would be glad if you find the time to answer me.

Hi Maria,
Could you make sure your touchpad is without problem?
First of all, I suggest you go to touchpad manufacturer's website to get the latest driver of your model for Windows 8.1.
If it's not helpful, you may have an incompatible Shell Extension installed.
I suggest you download and run Shell Extensions Viewer, with which you can see what's installed, and even methodically disable the 3rd party shell extensions (logging off and on again before testing).

I'm having problems with Gmail. Nothing happens when I click the settings button, and Gmail often fails to recognize when the checkbox next to an email is selected. What's up?

When I render the page in Internet Explorer using IE Tab Plus everything works just fine.

Nevermind...just had to do a full reinstall. That means going to firefox folder on my computer, running helper.exe from the uninstall folder, and unchecking the box that lets you save your themes, addons, bookmarks, etc. The reinstalled version works perfectly. Now I just have to find all those addons again...

TS3989 I have iphone and ipad and windows 7. trying to set OPTIONS on icloud photostream on my windows 7 screeen. Nothing happens when i hit the photostream options button.

Cannot open OPTIONS for photostream.

Is the stream actually working at the min? Are you just wanting to change the settings?
If it isn't working, you could try the following things:
Can you log out of the control panel? If so try logging out, restart the pc then log back in again.
If that doesnt help, uninstall icloud from the pc, restart, then reinstall.
If you still have no joy and really want the photostream to work you need to check your permissions. If you right click on the icloud icon in your start up menu you can open the file location. There you will find about 8 apple files such as 'applephotostreams'. right click on each and go to security, make sure you have full control of each file. I am not sure how much this has to do with it but I have seen other people suggest it on other threads.
If that still doesn't help you could try making a new user acount on your pc and setting up icloud on there. This worked for me (no idea why!). I just started using a new user account and left my old one for the kids to use but if you have all your stuff on your original one you could set the photo stream to download to a public file so you can view it from any user account. Or move the pics to a public file fter the have downloaded into the file icloud automatically makes for you.
Hope you sort it out!

In Firefox 18.0.2..when I hit the Home button it opens a new tab. Why?

This did not always occur but only recently started. I have tried resetting my home page to no avail.

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

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.
