    Does it power on if you plug in the charger?
    But to be honest I see in your description it says 'Late 2011' so there is a good chance you have warranty right, I would take it to Apple store and let them sort it out

    And what would that be before I or anyone else wastes their time and yours providing options you have already tried without any change?
    If you have tried all troubleshooting steps providing by Apple, call AppleCare or make an appointment an an Apple store if there is one nearby. You have no other option.

  • I restored my iphone but now it will not power on fully.  The Itunes plugin appears.  I plug it in and restore as requested but the phone never restarts like it says it will.  I have done this several times now but nothing. Suggestions?

    Sounds like time to take it back to Apple for repair.

    Delete the music in your iTunes library, then go to iTunes store, Quick Link, 'Purchased' to redownload again.

  • MacBook will not power or charge! HELP ME!

    My MacBook was working great last night. I was watching a DVD on it and the battery started to go low. I closed it up and layed it down and went to bed. I did shut off DVD before closing it up. Safri might have still been on I am not sure. Either way I wake up to a dead battery, so as always I plugged in the AC to watch my movie, but the light on the AC will not even light up. I even took the battery out and still it will not Power on. I cleaned and put battery back in and still NOTHING. No chargeing up, no powering on. My computer just will not power on at all. I had this happen to an iBook, but it finally came on after taking the battery out ten or more times and just kept pushing the power button. But, I've tried all morning and I can't get anything to happen with this MacBook. Am I suppose to hold down a key or is there a way to reset the computer? It was working great! Not one problem EVER. Not even a shut down or locking up....nothing. Not. One. Problem. Please HELP ME!? I'm guessing the battery went completely dead and forced the computer to shut off....but why will it not cut back on? I'll give you the BIGGEST (((HUG))) if you can help me! -Aimee ;o)

    Yea. They call themselves a "genius," but that they are NOT! Some are so clueless and only want you to buy a new computer. Theres gotta be a better way. Sometimes I think APPLE put a little device in their computers and after five years it blows up and kills the computer so your only option is to buy a new one. I"M NOT GIVING UP!!! LOL!

  • HELP.. iPhone 4 will not power on

    Not sure what happened as I was using the phone prior to going to sleep last night and all was fine. I set my alarm clock to wake up but the phone will not power on thus I woke up late. I have charged the phone for 3 hours today so its not that it ran low. Has anyone had a problem with their phone not powering on? I tried holding down the power button as well as the home button. Also no one was using the phone besides me. Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks

    Did the soft boot at it worked. Thanks. Why would the phone just shut down for no reason and what is the reason for soft boots a couple times a week? Never had This problem on my 3G.
    Not really sure, but I while I never had to soft boot my 3G due to something like this, I did have a few friends who did have to. With so many Apps being used on so many devices, it's possible an app made your phone go to sleep, but it's not really an issue, because you can wake it up easily. The Apple store suggested that soft booting (if there is such a word) is good to clear the cache and help the phone operate at peak speed. So, it's something I've gotten in the habit of doing a few times a week and maybe that's why I never have any issues........
    I'm glad the boot solved your problem........

  • After charging my iPhone 5s the screen has locked with the Apple symbol and will not switch on or off even after connecting to iTunes , i am using the original Apple charger

    Has anybody had a similar problem , after charging my iPhone 5s (with the Apple charger and cable ) , the screen on the phone has locked with the Apple Symbol , the phone will neither switch on or off for me to take any action , restore , upgrade etc

    I think your iPhone must be stuck in Apple logo. If so, you need to read the help guide: iOS: Not responding or does not turn on - Apple Support

  • Iphone 4 will not power on and is not charging

    iphone 4 was charged and suddenly stopped work went dark,  Will not power back on, will not charge.  Any suggestions on cause or fix???

    Hi daj1202,
    That definitely doesn't sound good. Lets see if we can isolate this issue further:
    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 LCIs and corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 15 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,
    Matt M.

  • Iphone 4s will not power on after ios 6.1 install

    iphone 4s will not power on after ios 6.1 install. Help

    This did not help the problem. History of problems that started 3 days ago before 6.1 update:
    Problems started with the phone dropping a call I was on. Then the screen had lines across it, then screen turned solid green.
    Powered off the iphone.
    Happened again 4 hours later. Dropped call then garbed screen. Powered off then back on all seemed okay.
    Applyed 6.1 yesterday in the morning. Phoned died completely last night. Plugged in over night and it came back up this morning.
    Phone is still within  1 year warranty. Should I just have Apple replace the phone (Warranty runs out in 2 weeks)

  • My iphone 4s without warning has powered off and will not power back up? any suggestions?

    My iPhone 4s has just powered down without any previous indication of problems and will not power back up? Any suggestions?

    Connect iPhone to Wall Charger for 10 minutes, it may turn ON itself. If still nothing keep on Charger and Reset, hold both home and power buttons for about 20 seconds until the iPhone begins to start.

  • After updating my iPhone 4 to iOS7, the controls on the headset are not working anymore. However, the controls are working on my friend's iPhone 5. Is this a common issue?

    Try This...
    Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...

  • HT4061 My iPhone 4 does will not power up once I have turned it off.  When I try to charge it in the off position I only get "pinging".  Has anyone else had this problem?  If so, what is the remedy?

    My iPhone 4 does not/will not power up once I have turned it off.  When I try to charge it in the off position, the screen remains black and I only get continuous pinging tones.  Has anyone had this problem?  If so, what is the remedy?

    Thanks so much but none of that helped.  It was driving me crazy because it would back up another external drive.  I just changed the name of the drive from iPhoto/iTunes Library to Media Libraries and IT WORKED!! I guess for some reason it didn't like the drive being called iPhoto or iTunes ???? I don't understand but I have tried so many solutions and exchanging things out but the name change did it????!!!
    Thank you for your help and replying to this.  Guess I made my own issue!
