MY iphone5 is stuck on apple logo. Sleep/wake and home button together don't work and connecting to iTunes doesn't either. Anyone any ideas

You need to hold both those buttons down for several seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. Don't release until then.

  • My ipod touch is still not responding at all even after holding sleep/wake and home button the logo disappears then comes back what do i do now?

    Help please

    - After charging it for at least an hour try what you already tried.  You battery may be fully discharged.
    - If still problem, I would try restoring it via iTunes.  If the iPod does not show in iTunes try placing the iPod in recovery mode.  For recovery mode see:

  • IPhone won't reboot past Apple logo.

    iPhone 4 won't reboot past Apple logo. It will not show up in iTunes to perform a restore. I can't even get it to turn off. Help?

    Reset phone - press both home and sleep/wake buttons until the Apple logo reappears.
    If that doesn't work, try recovery:
    1. Update to latest iTunes (10.3.1)
    2. Connect phone to a USB port directly on the computer
    3. Press both home and sleep/wake buttons until the Apple logo appears, then continue pressing the home button alone until iTunes detects the phone in Recovery mode.
    4. Follow the prompts to restore.

  • IPhone 5 won't reboot past Apple logo. It will not show up in iTunes to perform a restore.

    iPhone 5 won't reboot past Apple logo. It will not show up in iTunes to perform a restore.After the logo appears the phone will get switched of by its own. I updated my phone 2 days before.

    The iPhone can only be serviced in the country where it has been bought, and it can't be shipped internationally to Apple Support, you'll or somebody else have to bring it personally. If you registered the phone with your Apple ID, you might not need the receipt, Apple Support should have your data.
    Did you try to set it back to factory settings without using any backup afterwards?

  • Won't start past apple logo, won't boot from install disc

    mbp penryn 2.4 core 2 duo won't boot past apple logo. Running mtn lion 10.8... inserted Snow Leopard install disc, held down C key, only get a grey screen.Recently installed new HD, (seagate 750 Hybrid), upped ram from 2x2 to 2x4. All has been running very smoothly (and much cooler) for the past 3 weeks. Then this, prompted apparently by the mac going to sleep w/o being plugged in. Ran battery down, I suppose? Happens frequently.
    Any suggestions?

    ds,
    "You might have ruined the RAM by handling it and touching the contacts.
    Once you put new good RAM into the machine, reset SMC and PRAM then boot it up."
    On the odd chance that I did ruin my ram I replaced w/ 4gb brand new ram, reset SMC and PRAM, then attempted to boot. Still a grey screen. Also re-attempted to put mbp into target mode, but no luck there either, nor with ejecting the Snow Leopard install disc via option/trackpad method, both on startup and while running, and no luck there either. I have a second Penryn mbp that I could salvage for a spare part if I knew what the problem might be. So far I get the idea from your responses that my machine SHOULD be rebooting, but for some reason isn't.
    If this helps:
    I hear, consistently on attempting startup, fans powering up, then two short whirrs as if a drive head is moving,  then when the fans quiet down after 30-45 seconds, another short but different whirr, then only quiet fans and a grey screen.
    Thanks in advance for any reply.

  • IPad in a boot loop, won't get past Apple logo

    Hi
    My iPad 2 is stuck in a boot loop, doesn't get past the Apple logo. I've held the sleep/home button together many times and it hasn't worked. Tried to do a restore in DFU mode, goes all the way the end and starts rebooting again. Even tried re installing the firmware on it and it goes all the way to the end then starts rebooting again. Tried hitting it on the back and this didn't work. There has been no damage to the iPad.
    Any other suggestions please?
    Many thanks
    Dominic

    Thanks for the replies! Anyway, I gave DiskWarrior a try and it failed to work. The first time I tried it, I put the disc into the drive of my MacBook Pro and booted it from the disc. After going through the rebuild process it told me that due to a hard drive malfunction it couldn't append any changes to the drive. I then tried putting the disk into my iMac and used my MacBook Pro in Target Disk mode. This wouldn't even attempt to rebuild my drive saying that there was a hardware failure.
    So, I booted into Windows 7 and saw that Windows was able to access the drive and read the files perfectly. All the files were in tact. I don't understand why disk warrior had a problem with it. Anyway, what I can do is reinstall Mac OS X Snow Leopard onto the hard drive again after moving the data onto an external hard drive using Windows. The only problem is that I would have to reinstall all of my programs while reimporting all of the settings and data that I can from the external hard drive. What I want to know is can I make an image of my hard drive (with SuperDuper?), and append that back onto my Mac's hard drive? Would that work again after reformatting the disk or would it just give me the same problems as before? Would it be better or easier to just start new and reinstall everything? Thanks!

  • IPod Nano Won't Boot Past Apple Logo...

    Sup all?
    ...Got an interesting problem here. Replaced an LCD in a Nano for a friend, installation went smooth & without problems (or so I thought). After installation was complete, I put the Nano back together & started loadin' & playin music on the Nano. About 2 days later, I decided to update it w/the new iPod Updater (can't remember the date). Now the iPod Nano won't boot past the Apple Logo. I can tell that the "menu" has been loaded 'cuz you can hear the clickin' sound when you operate the wheel.
    I've tried reformatting the iPod Nano (quick & full) & then trying to restore it, but it won't boot past the logo (after successful restoration?). Now I'm going to run the battery dead & then try to restore it again.
    Any suggestions/comments on this?

    The solution I see in your case is to go back and download an older iPod Updater.
    See this link -> iPod Updaters
    I suggest taking either the January 2006 iPod Updater, or March 2006 iPod Updater.
    IMHO, Some of these freezing issues occur because of a fault in the latest iPod Updater.
    I suggest going back to March (or January), and the nano could possibly work again for you.

  • 4th Gen nano reboots but won't get past Apple logo, Hold switch trouble

    I just got a used 4th gen nano for my son, when I charge it it lights up with the apple logo but nothing past that.  I can press the menu and center buttons together to get into diagnostic mode, when I go into the IO test it says the hold switch is on when it's actually in the off position, and vice versa.  However if I turn the switch on, so that the test says it's off, then it really does act like it's on and freezes up.  Hence, I can't do anything other that get into diagnostic mode, I can never get to the music menu.  Any advice???

  • IPhone 4 wont start. Screen remains blank and buttons are unresponsive unless its connected to mains or PC, when an Apple LOGO appears. Only on mains displays IOS 6, update, connect to iTunes. On connecting to PC just displays apple logo on and off.

    Header 1
    Header 2
    iPhone 4 screen remains blank and only the apple logo appears on and off when connected to mains or PC. Only on mains occasionaly proceeds to display IOS 6 logo and a slide sign to start recovery which proceeds to an instruction to connect to iTunes. Hwever, as soon as disconnected from mains (in order to connect to the PC) screen goes totally blank again. On connecting to PC the Apple LOGO starts appearing intermittently but does not proceed to display IOS 6 LOGO. I have recharged overnight and followed resetting instructions as per the iPhone support page. Any suggestions (short of taking it to a service centre) ?

    did you get any help regarding the problem?? because even i have the same problem!!! guess it all started after updating to iOs 6

  • My itouch is frozen on the black screen with the apple icon, I've done the whole reset holding the power and home button together but still won't work. Can someone please help!?

    So I've done the whole hold the power and home button, it resets but still stays frozen on the black screen with the apple icon

    Did you try to reset by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes back again?
    Does it work with headphones plugged in? If yes, did you try to play music in headphone mode, then unplug during playback and start playing music again after that?
    If you toggle the volume, can you see the slider moving up or down?

  • Mac Mini won't boot past Apple logo and spinning wheel

    Hello,
    I have a Mac mini (late 2009) running 10.8.2. Today, I tried to log into the computer. It accepted my username and password, but then the screen turned gray instead of logging in. I left it like that for about twenty minutes, then gave up on waiting and Ctrl-Command-Power rebooted it. It then wouldn't reboot: it gets to the Apple logo and spinning loading wheel, but won't go past there.
    So I went into single-user mode and was able to access the HD fine. I ran a filesystems check using the recommended syntax (/sbin/fsck -fy, I think). It said that the volume looked okay, and that it had been modified. I took this as a good sign (that it had been repaired) and typed "reboot" to restart the machine. I held Command-Shift-V to perform a Verbose Safe Boot.
    The computer makes no further progress after the following four lines:
    vboxdrv: fAsync=0 offMin0x809 offMax=0x2bc3
    VBoxDrv: version 3.2.12 r68302; IOCtl version 0x140001; IDC version 0x10000; dev major=34
    VBoxFltDrv: version 3.2.12 r68302
    VBoxAdpDrv: version 3.2.12 r68302
    I'm assuming all the instances of "vbox" are in reference to Oracle's VirtualBox VM. I do have VirtualBox installed, but haven't used it in a while (months), so I don't see why it's suddenly causing a problem.
    To clarify, the computer doesn't "hang" after these lines: I can still type text into the terminal. The entire log is being saved to /dev/console, so I could probably grab it from Single-User Mode if necessary.
    Everything else seems to be working properly: even the wl0 drivers are loaded.
    Does anyone have any suggestions about how to fix this, or at least disable VirtualBox so the computer can start?
    Thanks!

    Cult of Mac post:
    When the Apple Logo appears your Mac has found a valid system disk, and Mac OS X begins loading.
    Apple Logo with Spinning Gear
    Once the spinning gear appears the BSD kernel (Darwin) has assumed command and begins loading device drivers.  Shortly thereafter it transfers command to the almighty (and controversial) launchd process.  Such are the workings of UNIX.
    What this means for us mortals is that when a Mac stalls at the Apple logo or the logo with a spinning gear, it probably has a corrupt Mac OS X installation.  It may also be having trouble accessing an internal or external hardware component, but this is less-likely.
    Rebooting your Mac in Safe Mode can sometimes get things working well-enough that a second, normal reboot then works normally  Hold down the Shift key at startup to boot in Safe Mode.  DiskWarrior is also worth a shot (this is by far my most used disk utility).  If that doesn’t work, an Archive & Install may be needed.

  • Iphone 3G won't boot past apple logo - not typical case that I've searched and read about

    I am attempting to fix an Iphone 3G for a friend.  Before the phone stopped working, they said the battery life was getting worse progressively until the point that they had to turn down the brightness and have it plugged in often.  The phone was jailbroken and unlocked for use on Tmobile.  I don't know what firmware it's on nor how it was jailbroken, just that they said it worked fine for 3 years.  When this problem first occurred, my friend was able to get the phone into recover mode, but it would shut down after several seconds even when plugged into a computer or power source.
    Currently, the phone will not boot past the apple logo.  It powers up, goes to the apple logo, and powers down 20 or so seconds later.  The spinning gear never appears.  I can not get the phone to boot into recovery nor DFU mode.   The computer doesn't recognize it or even acknowledge when it is plugged in, so irecover that some people use to solve their recovery loop mode i won't work either.  I have the luxury of having a functional iphone 3g that I used to swap parts to narrow down the culprit.
    Steps taken:
    replaced battery
    swapped usb connector on bottom of phone
    swapped lcd assembly in case it was the home button
    took the motherboard out and placed it in the working phone, and it still doesn't boot past the apple logo
    I'm out of ideas at this point.  Thanks for anything you guys (and gals) can think of.

    I See a lot of those on my bench. The cause is the charge IC is burned out usually by a non Apple cable. The only way to get it to fully boot is to put a fresh charged battery in. Once a new fully charged battery is in it will continue to work fine including charging. But if you ever power off the device or it turns off due to dead battery it will not boot up on its own And you will need to swap batteries again.

  • IPod Video Won't Boot Past Apple Logo

    I've had my 5th Generation iPod Video (80 GB) for about 1 1/2 years. I was using it the other day and it froze in the middle of a song, so I used the reset function to reboot it. Now it won't boot past the Apple logo; it just stays there (until the battery runs out).
    I definitely can't use the iTunes "restore" function, since I've been unable to get my computer to acknowledge when it is plugged in.
    I'm guessing this means my hard drive is done for? If so, I'm comfortable replacing it myself, but I could use some advice regarding a good (and economically priced) replacement drive. After a quick look inside my iPod, it appears the hard drive model is a Toshiba MK8010GAH.

    You might try forcing the iPod into disk mode first, then connecting it to your computer and see if that makes it show up in iTunes...
