Why does my home button not work?

Sometimes I press it and nothing happens and to do the double click for the open apps screen sometimes takes 20 clicks be fore it works... There seems to be a delay when I press it.

Tried that, but it hasn't worked. Looks like I'll have to go the store!
It's been like this for ages, I should have gone when it was still under warranty.

  • Why does my home button only work sporadically on my iphone?

    Most of the time my iPhone is fine, but then 2 or 3 times a day the home button stops working and I need to power the phone off and back on again to get it working properly. Am I alone in having this problem?

  • Why is the home button not working correctly?

    I have reset the button by holding sleep key & home button down, i have also tried to reset the home button by holding this down itself, it is still none responsive most if the time.  I have done this many times.
    It is also very difficult to get it to open the 'open apps bar', so i can close these down!!
    My ipad is only 4 days old and i feel frustrated to be having problems so soon!!!

    Calibrate Home Button
    1. Open a stock application like Calendar, Weather or Youtube
    2. Hold down the power button until the "slide to power off" control appears
    3. As soon as you see it, press the Home button and keep it pressed until the red slider disappears and the app is forced quit to the Home menu

  • Why does my home wifi not work with my apple products

    my computer, ipad, and ipod all say that when i connect to my house wifi there is no internet connection yet when i try to connect my xbox and galaxy phone the wifi works just fine i called the wireless company and they told me that the router is working fine i habe no idea weather there is some sort of setting that i can change on the router or on my devices but if there is can someone help it would be much obliged

    Check the time and date on your computer and make sure it's accurate.
    What happens sometimes if your data and time are off, you get a DCHP lease for the IP address from the router to connect, then it quickly expires, making it appear you connect for a second and then get cut off.
    The Mac gets it's time from Apple servers, however if it's not connecting, then it can't update the time and date.
    Hopefully this will resolve your issue.

    I updated my browser to the latest version and now the back button doesn't work anymore. Is this just a glitch with my download or is anyone else having this problem.

  • Why does the HOME button Not act on clicking?

    You have to press harder to get action, so why have a misleading Click ?

    Usually in this type of switch, the click occurs FROM the contact itself...
    In this case, no. Trying to click softly results in about one in five clicks causing an action.  In normal use (like my Mac mouse or other buttons in pressure) results in about half of audible clicks
    resulting in actions.
    It's a minor annoyance, but still annoying to hear-feel the click yet still have to do it again

  • Why does my "home" button on my ipad no longer work?

    Restore the phone and set it up as a new phone to isolate a software issue.

  • Iphone 4: Home Button Not Working. The home button only works when it is connected to iTunes, once i disconnet it does not work, i have tried a restore to factory settings but it still is not working. Any suggestions?

    Apple, as I said, does not repair your iPhone. All hardware service issues are handled by replacing the unit. So they can't handle the home-button issue without also addressing the issue of the cracked screen, for which they'll almost certainly charge you. But you can make an appointment at an Apple Store or call Apple tech support and plead your case.
