  • The home button of my iPod is not working and it got 1 year of warranty if they give me a new iPod can I take another color ?

    The home button of my iPod is not working and it got 1 year of warranty and going to Apple store, my iPod is silver color. if they give me a new one can I pick another color ?

    No, they will give you a refurbished (but basically a brand-new) iPod touch in the same color. I have the Silver as well...sort of kicking myself for not waiting for the Blue one to come back in stock.

  • How can I fix the home button on a phone that doesn't have a working power button?

    My girlfriends phone was fine then all of a sudden the home button don't work and we knew the power button doesn't work but I need help trying to fix the home button?

    Make a backup, then restore it as new, via iTunes.
    If that fails, then contact Apple to get the device serviced/replaced.

    - 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.

  • The Home Button on my iPhone 3GS is working off and on.

    Sometimes when I press the Home Button it works immediately.
    Other times it does not work at all,or I have to press it three or four times,and quite hard,to get to the next screen.
    It is an intermittent problem but is not happening more often.
    Any advice on how this can be resolved?

    Hi, I had the same thing with my iphone 4 not so long ago. It had a problem and i sent it to the apple store (it had lesss than a year so i didn't pay). If you send it and you have apple care then they would send you a new one for free.

  • The home button of my IPAD did not work well.

    From awhile the home button doesn't work properly.  I have already upgraded the system to 4.3.3, and It doesnt get fixed.  Suddenly you have to press 10 times to make it works.  Some times it work fine but some times it doesn't.  Can someone help me?

    Sounds like it might be a hardware problem.  I'd take it back to Apple store, or place of purchase to check.

  • My itouch is frozen on the black screen with the apple icon, I've done the whole reset holding the power and home button together but still won't work. Can someone please help!?

    So I've done the whole hold the power and home button, it resets but still stays frozen on the black screen with the apple icon

    Did you try to reset by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes back again?
    Does it work with headphones plugged in? If yes, did you try to play music in headphone mode, then unplug during playback and start playing music again after that?
    If you toggle the volume, can you see the slider moving up or down?

  • HT204158 the home button on my ipad2 does not work

    Ipad2 home button does not work.  Can't do a reset because home button does not work.  Help?

    Try this calibration procedure:
    Open a stock iOS app (e.g., Clock). Once the app is open, press your iPad’s power button until the ‘slide to power off’ screen appears. From that screen, press and hold your Home button until iOS force quits the stock app you have open. You’re done!

    Besides not printing, the OK button on my Tools settings no longer works. That just started, too.

    You have hardware issues (buttons don't work) that can't be solved on a forum.  If still under warranty, return to Apple.  If not, search for iPhone repair in your area.

  • HT1349 The home button on my iPhone 4 is not working.  Does anybody know how I can restore it?

    The home button in my iPhone does not work.  Does anybody know how to restore it?

    If the basics from the User Guide have all been tried (restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new) and you still have problems, then you've done all the troubleshooting you can do.  You'll need to bring your phone into Apple or an authorized service provider in your area.
