Iphone 4 will not power on

my iphone 4 will not power on unless it is hooked up to the wall outlet but then is says connect to itunes. Then when I unplug it, it turns off.  Then when i plug it in to my computer the apple logo appears on the screen and shuts off and come back on and keeps repeating. 

Replaced that phone.  So last week I decided to se if any new info on the Internet for that problem. Went online and ordered a battery. Got it, work beautifully. They are all over the Internet for cheap. Only do it if your phone is out of warranty, if not go to apple store. OPENING YOUR PHONE VOIDS WARRENTIES

  • My lock button is broken and my iphone will not power back on when I charge it, how do I turn it on?

    My iphone will not power on when I plug it into charger in the wall, computer, or car. My lock button is broken and I do not know how to turn it back on. My phone did not die it just went black and has not been dropped, cracked, or gotten wet. What do I do?

    Normally one would do a reset, however without the lock button, which is the sleep/wake button, you cannot do a reset. You could always wait until the battery dies to see if it will start when plugged in, but the sleep/wake button is an integral part of the phone and needs to work to do a number of functions. I suggest that you make an appointment at the Genius Bar to get it fixed.

  • My iphone will not power off

    My Iphone 4s will not power off and the battery is draining with a couple of hours ? Help please

    Try an iPhone reset first which is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release. This is similar to a computer restart.
    Try powering the iPhone off again after doing so.

  • My iPhone will not power off. It automatically turns back on after trying to shut it off. Any Ideas?

    My iPhone 5 will not power off. I hold the power button down and it lets me turn it off but then it automatically turns back on. It is as if I am just restarting it. Any ideas on how to fix it? I already had it exchanged and the replacement is now doing it.

    I had this same problem about a year ago. It is most likely because debris has been caught in the cable connector. Get a cotton bud or something soft so that you don't cause any damage, and gently clean the inside of the dock connector of your phone. Do not use any liquids. Hope this helps.

  • My iphone will not power on???

    I have tried pressing the top key and home key but nothing happens. My phone will not power on...

    Connect to Wall Charger for 10 minutes, the iPhone may turn ON itself. If still OFF keep on charger and Reset, hold both home and power buttons until the iPhone begins to start. This can take about 20 seconds time of holding both buttons while on charger.

  • HT4528 my iphone will not power on - the battery and morphie are fully charged

    My iphone is fully charged as is the morphie but it will not power on.  The battery strength button on the bottom shows all four lights.  I have pushed the sleep/wake button on the top, I have pushed the home button but nothing happens - the screen remains black

    Have you tried resetting your device by pressing and holding the Home button and power button until the silver apple appears?

  • IPhone Will Not Power Off or Go Into Silent Mode

    Yesterday I discovered that I had my phone switch flipped to Silent Mode, and my phone was still making the General Sounds and Still Ringing. No matter what I do I can't get it to Vibrate instead of ring.
    Also it will not power off, no matter how long I hold the button nothing happens, it wont even lock. I tried performing a hard rest by holding the Home Key & Power Button, but instead of reseting the Voice Control pops up and my iPod starts playing.
    Any Help Is Greatly Appreciated ♥

    - Try another cable.
    - Try on another computer
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • IPhone will not power on

    The phone will not respond to the power button. 

    I have the similar problem. My thread is Iphone 3gs does not start - dead.
    I tired all the following and does not work. May be one of them will work for you.
    Its been one year i had it. The phone was running out of battery so i kept it on the wall charger. As usual took the phone and tired to use it - NO response.
    Tried the following :
    Hard reset (pressing the home and power button for 10+ seconds)
    Recovery mode. (connected to computer, press the home button and connected the USB Cable).
    DFU mode (pressed power and home button while connected to the USB Cable)
    Tried starting with an external battery.
    Tried resetting the SIM Card.
    Nothing works. the screen is blank, the computer + iTunes does not recognize it. I hope one of the solutions work for you. Apple gives 12 months warranty. so just take it to Apple store and they may give you a new phone. My phone is 13 months old so i have to buy a new phone.

  • IPhone will not power on after update

    Dear Apple,
    I currently have your iPhone 3GS which I received approximately 18 months ago. However, after updating the OS Software the device has decided to not power on. After speaking to your Apple Support Centre, they booked me an appointment at Apple Bentall Centre, Kingston, London, UK.
    My device was looked at by a representative named Vanessa Baldwin who claimed that the device would not power on and that seeing as it is out of warranty, the only option I had was to replace it costing £139. I then asked to speak to the Store Manager Leigh Baigent, who reiterated Vanessa Baldwin's suggestion. He also added that the device would not power on due to a fault on the motherboard and had nothing to do with the battery. I proceeded to explain to your staff that I would expect a £400 iPhone to last longer than 18 months and that under The Sale of Goods Act 1979, a retailer is responsible for the items they sell for up to six years in England and Wales regardless of warranty. Your staff expressed a blank look towards me as if I spoke a foreign language and dismissed my claims.
    I am therefore making formal contact with Apple directly to sort the matter.
    Any help would be appreciated, please do not give me a story about warranty / insurance guidelines
    I look forward to your response.

    I would probably advise you to e-mail, or make contact by phone, rather than making a complaint on the Support communities page.
    I hope your lucky in succesfully getting a new iPhone however

  • TS1702 I have just installed iso6 and now no apps will open and the iphone will not power down

    I have had Lion since it was first released July 20th, and I have noticed that I can not zoom in on everything that is on the internet, some things seem to not be able to be zoomed in on.  Are you saying that no matter what website you go to (this one for eample) the zoom function does not work?

  • IPhone Will Not Power Up

    My iPhone 4s cut off yesterday and will not cut back on.  I charged it last night, and that didn't help.  Any idea how to turn it back on?

    I have not.  When I plug it into the computer, iTunes does not recognize the iPhone.

  • IPhone will not power off, app will not change , two screens display at one time

    Hello, I have a phone that is stuck on one app. Can hold the off button for 3 minutes and will not turn off. Will hold the lower button to change app's and nothing. Can change subjects in the app stuck in and can see both screens while scrolling. Going to let the phone run out of power to see if that will help, but very inconveinent

    I seem to have found the answer by my own foolishness....
    I held down the on/off button on top and the "belly button" on the front bottom and whoosh! it came back to life.
    It would sure be nice if Apple would restore the Troubleshooting area of their website and include information like this so Luddites like myself could keep a lower blood pressure....

  • My iphone will not power on - when plugged in the battery will display, but it does not charge

    My iphone ran out of battery a few days ago, and now it will not charge back up. Its been plugged in for over a day, when the home button is pressed it displays a battery with 3 small red bars. I was able to get it into recovery mode and restore factory settings - but this did not solve the problem! it is still not turning on. I have tried changing chargers etc. already and i believe it is a problem with the phone. please help!

    Could be a battery problem. You'll have to visit an Authorized Apple Service Provider to Apple Store to get it checked for hardware issues.

  • My iPhone will not power on. When on a charger or plugged into a computer, the apple logo will come on for a few seconds, go off within a second, then come on every minute or so and do it again. This is all without ever actually powering on.

    I have tried all methods of resetting and it still does the same thing. iTunes does not even recognize the phone. Any ideas on the issue?

    Hello Breanneg,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3281
    If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
    If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
    Let it charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
    If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
    If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged. Learn more about charging iPhone and iPod touch, or iPad.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
    Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more aboutrestoring iOS software.
    If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
    Best of luck,
    Mario
