Iphone4 turned off out of the blue.. and now it wont turn back on.. what should i do???

I recently got my iphone and its been working fine.. till today.. i was checking my mail and the phone went black. its been like that for the past hour and it doesnt seem to trun on.
please help!!

Assuming the battery didn't die, try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

  • My ipod has turned off while it was charging and now it wont turn on

    find my ipod sais that it is offline and I think its frozen!

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - 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.

  • I accidentally deleted my iphoto and i took it out of the trash and now it wont open it goes to a blank page. help please.

    when i took my iphoto out of the trash it wouldnt open the same it goes to a blank page and has that waiting circle but it never loads and i cant put pics in it... i even tried re installing it and it did the same thing! help me i really miss my pictures

    there isno iphoto in my applications folder
    Then you'll have to reinstall iPhoto.  To do so you'll have to delete the current application and all files with "iPhoto" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder and from the /var/db/receipts/  folder,
    Click to view full size
    Then install iPhoto from the disk it came on originally.

  • HT1414 i gave my old iPad to my granddaughter and she changed the passcode and now can't remember it.  What should I do?

    Can't remember my password.

    FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
    1. Turn off iPad
    2. Turn on computer and launch iTune (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
    3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
    4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port. Do not release button until you see picture of iTune and plug (very important)
    5. Release Home button.
    ON COMPUTER
    6. iTune has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTune.
    7. Select "Restore iPad"...
    Note: Data will be lost

  • My 3GS turned off with a low battery, and now will not turn on

    I have charged it fully, tried hard restarting, tried plugging it into my computer, tried pressing the home button while plugging it into the computer etc.
    My question is really about how to contact apple in regards to getting it fixed. This is a replacement phone and it did not come with a warranty (or more accurately, I was too late to renew the old warranty when I got it). However if it had come with a warranty, it would have been within the warranty period (8 months). To me this gives an implied warranty on workmanship and parts. I live in regional Australia which makes going into my local apple store a little difficult, and I don't want to have to pay for tech support for them to tell me that I should try restarting it.
    End rant.

  • I turned off all my tool bars and can't get them back again.

    I inadvertently turned off all my tool bars and now can't turn them back on again. I can't get to any of my favorites. How do I turn on Tool bars when I don't have a tool bar to do it?

    If you have hidden the menu bar, press either Alt or F10, this will temporarily display the menu bar, then in the View menu select Toolbars and click on the "Menu Bar" entry to permanently display the menu bar.
    You can then use View > Toolbars to display the other toolbars that you want.

  • How can I play an album in order on my iphone?  The shuffle is turned off both on the phone and when the phone is sync'd but it continues to shuffle.

    How can I play songs from an album in order on my iphone 4?  The shyuffle is turned off both on the phone and on the device when I sync the phone with my iMac but it continues to shuffle.  All the songs in the album have been checked in iTunes.

    Bill, you ignorant moron.  Turn off the ultra secret hidden shuffle diabolically placed behind the album cover.  Just tap the album cover to expose the sinister little shuffle icon on the right.  Is it blue?  Well, tap it until it is no longer blue! Also, make sure you are in your playlist and not the genius playlist. 
    Hope this helps!  Now, who's ready for ice cream?  Or do  you want to "shyuffle" some more, you weirdo?!?

    Hello there, RFJA2211.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great troubleshooting steps for unexpected power off of your iOS device:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • When I type my email address in the "To:" field, a random name comes up next to it as "Holidays in United States". This just started happening out of the blue and I have no idea why. Does anyone else have any idea?

    When I type my email address in the "To:" field, a random name comes up next to it as "Holidays in United States". This just started happening out of the blue and I have no idea why. Does anyone else have any idea?

    Just to recap, this is a collection of ports I have collected over time for people who needed this information when setting up the HP ePrint app so that they could view their email from within the app.  I am certain other applications also need this information.  Although lengthy, I could not find a more comprehensive place to retrieve this information.  Feel free to post additional information, faulty information, or other related topics below as this is simply a collection of data and it would be practically impossible to test all of them. Thank you!
    Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" if I helped solve your problem.
    When a solution is found please mark the post that solves your issue.
    Every problem has a solution!
