When using my phone it sometimes will go back to the home screen

When I'm using my phone it will go back to the home screen !! Annoying help

Your first post was that when trying to take a photo or going online it would go back to the display screen.
I would first go to settings to general to reset all settings. If this does not resolve the issue you will then want to back up all data and then restore device back to default settings. Obviously a software issue.

  • Hi upgraded my iphone 5 and now two of my apps keep crashing when I press on them it just goes back to the home screen one is Facebook and the other is my fitbit app.

    Hi upgraded my iphone 5 to ios7.1 and now my Facebook and fitbit app won't work it just keeps going back to front screen and suggestions on how I can fix this if so please put answer in simple words. Thanks

    Hello Glenys,
    It sounds like you have 2 apps that are not working as expected. I recommend the steps from the following article named:
    iOS: An app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1702
    These steps will get you started but therea are more if needed:
    Restart the app
    Close the app and open it again.
    Restart your device
    Turn the device off and on.
    Update your device software and your apps
    Update your device to the latest version of iOS.
    Update your apps:
    Open the App Store and tap Updates.
    If updates are available, tap Update All.
    If asked, enter your Apple ID password. The updates will download and install.
    You might need a Wi-Fi connection to update some apps.
    Install another app from the App Store
    If your installed app won't open, download and install a free app that isn't on your iOS device. This should reset your Apple ID authorization.
    Remember to use the same Apple ID that you used to download the app that you're having issues with.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • TS2634 Why does my apple iPod touch just automatically stop playing songs and it also when I am doing a google search just goes back to the home screen

    My iPod touch just stops playing songs automatically.
    When doing a google search it sometimes times goes back to the home screen.
    Also it sometimes takes several goes before it will accept the charger!
    Would appreciate any help, thanks

    - The charging issue could be due to a poor connection or a problem with the iPod. Try another cable first
    - Try the following, it is mainly for the not playing and other problems:
    Reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod
    If still problem time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • When I'm working on another window, it will kick me back to the home screen

    when I'm working on another window, it will kick me back to the home screen every 15 seconds or so. It's like when it check email or something, it goes to the home screen.

    This problem is often caused by "Google Drive." If it's installed, I suggest you remove it according to the developer'sinstructions. You may need to boot in safe mode to do so. Back up all data before making any changes.
    If you use Google Drive and don't want to remove it, then try deselecting the option in its preferences to show a status icon. According to reports, that may be enough to stop the Finder from crashing.

    The last several days I have not been able to access the dial pad.  When I go to phone a pop up appears that says "unfortunatly contacts has stopped working."  To remove the pop up you have to hit 'ok', the it goes back to the home screen.  This also happens when I go to contacts.

    When I stream videos from my laptop onto my Apple TV via my iPad 2 using the Air Video app/server the video plays great however when I pause the video the Apple TV reverts back to the home screen within a few seconds and then when I want to restart watching the video I have to re-buffer the video. Is there any way I can stop the Apple TV from reverting back to the home screen when I pause the video I’m watching?

  • Phone 'forcing' you back to the Home Screen

    I've been using my phone the past three days, and myself as well as a friend have had the same problem, and it's software related.
    You will be doing something, just now I was flipping through albums in cover flow, and you get sent back to the home screen. You're not touching the home button, not even near it, and you're forced back to the home screen.
    I did this, went back to the iPod, and was forced back again. No matter what I did I was instantly pushed back to the home screen until I turned off the phone and turned it back on.
    This happens intermittently and seems to be something software related... it's either that or something with the 'Home' button...
    Anyone else experiencing this?

    I think this means that the app crashed. I've had this happen multiple times in Safari and Google Maps.
    To be sure, do this: try a sync of your phone with iTunes, and if iTunes asks you if it's okay to send diagnostic info to Apple, then that's what happened.
    If iTunes does not ask you if it's okay to send diagnostic info to Apple, then it's a different problem.
    This was also a big problem when the Intel-based Macs first came out, and it has gotten much better. Now we again have the apps compiled for a new platform, so there will be a few months of Apple getting the bugs worked out.
    I would bet that stabilizing these bugs will be a very high priority for Apple, and I bet we will see a software update for the iPhone within a few weeks.

  • Ipod will not got past the home screen

    Help please!!!! When I turn my ipod on, (with a full charge and fresh restore and update) it will not go past the home screen (music, setting, ect). The hold button is off. The click wheel will move the selector up and down, but I can't go any further than that.

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose your "stuff" with Recovery Mode.

  • TS3219 When on iTunes on my first generation iPad it defaults back to the home screen with no warning

    When trying to view the film category in iTunes my iPad defaults back to the home screen so I can't buy a film or even view products. Why is this happening ? Is there anything I can do?? My iPad is using iOS 5 and it is upto date as it is a first generation iPad. Please help!!!
    Thanks

    This is most often the result of iOS closing apps when it experiences a low-memory situation. The original iPad has very limited RAM by todays standards for Apps. If you have apps open, be sure to close them to preserve your RAM for apps you actually want running.
    To do so, double-tap the home button, then press and hold an app icon until they start to shake. You can close apps in the multi-tasking tab by tapping the little circle that appears.Be sure you don't do this on the main home screens because tapping the X will delete apps from your device rather than close them.
