TS3274 ipad 2 will not charge and home button does not work. batter at 39% so cannot upgrade over wi-fi. What can I do?

my wife's iPad home button has stopped working, in addition it will not charge either through usb or the wall.
She uses it to read novels mainly and has not mishandled it.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

I realize that you said that the home button is not working, but try this anyway.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. See if the battery will show that it is charging after the iPad starts up.

    Remi,
    How long did you hold these buttons for? Did you try more than once?  Have you tried letting it charge for a bit and trying again?

  • Ipod shut off and home button does not work

    So my friends iPod shut off and her home button doesn't work, and if plugged in wont turn on either? We tried the alcohol method but it did not work, anyone have any suggestions on what to do. ( her warranty is also expired)

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    Ignore the reset and when it says place the iPod in recovery mode
    Place the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs:

    RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
    or
    http://joshuabailey1997.wordpress.com/2010/09/02/recboot-v1-3/
    If necessary:
    Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
    and                                          
    RecBoot tip
    RecBoot may have problems on 64X windows, then try:       
    Tenorshare ReiBoot – Enter & Exit iPhone, iPad, iPod Recovery Mode with a Single Click
    For MAC or PC       
    The Firmware Umbrella - TinyUmbrella
    Installs blootware on PC too
    - 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 another cable              
    - 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.

    If it is one year old minus one day it is still under warranty. If it is more than a year since you purchased it then yes, the warranty has expired.
    Millions of iPads have been sold. Most continue to function long after their warranty has expired. Check the many requests about updating the iOS on the original iPad on these forums and you'll see that there are many iPads still working after three years. My iPad 2, which I had for over two years is still working well for my son in law who took it over from me when I bought a new one.
    Given that there will always be a few iPads that fail early. Most of those will be covered under warranty. But some will fail after the warranty has expired and before the owner expected it to. I'm sorry to hear that you are in this category. Take your iPad to an Apple store and have it looked at. They will provide you with alternatives, one of which is to purchase a like model to the one that failed at a discount. You can then know your options and make the best choice for you.

  • TA44551 My 1-year ipod nano locked up and would not start overnight. The on/off button will not work and stopped holding charge. No water damage, no fall, nothing unusual. I restored it (twice) but it will still not hold charge and on/off does not work.

    My 1-year ipod nano locked up and would not start overnight. The on/off button will not work and stopped holding charge. No water damage, no fall, nothing unusual. I restored it (twice) but it will still not hold charge and on/off does not work. I tried to restore it again and charged it in three different locations with different cables. etc but nothing. Suggestions?

    - After charging for 1/2 hour or so, does iTunes see the iPod?  If yes, restore the iPod from backup.
    - If no, se if placing the iPod in recovery mode will make it visible so you can restore the iPod.  For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

  • HT4623 My iPhone 4 shut off and will not turn on.  My home button does not work.  Any suggestions?

    My iPhone 4 worked fine last night.  When I woke up this morning, it had shut off and will not turn back on.  I looked up the HOME+SLEEP key solutions, but my home button does not work.  Any suggestions?

    Try a reset: Hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go.

  • Iphone 5 home button does not respond, brightness reduces by itself, wont charge and its one week since i got it!

    one week since i got the iphone 5: screen blacks out, when i finally get it to light up the light brightness turns low.
    problems charging phone, just doesnt want to charge unless i reset the phone.
    the main home button does not respond at times, approx 3-5 times a day this occurs
    phones touch screen does not respond at times...whole touch screen, no response!
    signal always drops out, this could be a network issue though i doubt it.
    speaking to quite a few peopl i know, they are havng the same issues with there 5 but not as often as myself.
    if i knew the 5 had so many issues i would not have chosen it, the 4s was fine!

    Then take it back!  If you've only had it for a week, you still have 51 weeks of warranty.  If you are in the USA, you are also within your 14 day unconditional return for full refund period.  If it has that many problems, just return it and get another one, or get your money back and buy something else.  There is no reason to live with a faulty device after just one week.

  • HT201401 My home button does not respond and the phone will not shut off

    Has anyone had a similar problem where the phone will not shut off and the home button does not respond

    You should try taking it to the Apple Store and asking for a replacement.
    Or you could enable Assistive Touch from Settings>General>Accessibility.

    My daughter down loaded the new 6.0 software and now her home button does not work.  Tried reseting to original settings and reset the operating software.  Any ideas?

    Try:
    fix for Home button
    Fix a broken, unresponsive or sticky iPhone Home Button
    - If you have iOS 5 and later you can turn on Assistive Touch it add the Home and other buttons to the iPods screen. Settings>General>Accessibility>Assistive Touch
    - If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for:
    Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
    - There are third-party places like the following that will repair the Home button. Google for more.

  • Ipad app icons shaking but won't delete, home button does not work, power off switch does not work

    I just got a new ipad air and have started to add apps to it.  I have added a couple of free apps which I have also deleted (moved to icloud).  I have also a couple of apps (free & purchased) which I have on it now.
    Now my problem:
    I tried to remove another free app.  I press and hold the icon.  All app icons shake and display the 'x' for removing, but the 'x' for does not work on any of the icons.  Also, after this, the home button does not work as the icons keep shaking even while I am pressing the button.  And the power off switch on the side of the device does not work either.  If I close the smart cover and reopen it shows the home display and all the icons still shaking (instead of showing the passcode sign-in display).  Fortunately (well, fortune in the misfortune) if I press the home button and off switch a couple times each and close the smart cover and wait, the device awakes normally.  Well, normally until I try to remove any app.
    So what do I need to do to fix this?
    Thanx
    Brian
