Brand New iPhone 4 not turning on.

Basically the title says it all, I've plugged it into iTunes and it recognizes it as an iPhone but it makes a beeping sound every 5 seconds and still doesn't work.

Try forcing it into recovery mode, as described in this article.  Make sure your iTunes is up to date 11.1.3
iOS: Unable to update or restore
I bought it from a 3rd party.
I see, just like a brand new 2010 Toyota with 60,000 miles on it....

  • Brand New iPad does not turn on

    Hi,
    I just got a brand new iPad 3d + WiFi 64GB and i just can't turn it on. These are all the things I had done:
    1. Charged for 8 hours at least with the 10w charger. During the charging, the white apple logo just stay flashing on the ipad screen (about 5secs on and 10secs off).
    2. Computer up to date; Itunes latest version ; did restarts (both mac and ipad), force reset, changed several cables and tried syncing with 2 other macs and one pc, still nothing happens when ipad is connected to the computer.
    3. Without the charger, no sign of life for ipad.
      Anyone has similar issues like me and how do you resolve it?

    That stinks.  Try this:  hold down the home button and the power button at the same time for 15-20 seconds.  If you don't eventually see an Apple logo - you have a bad unit and need to take it back from where you got it.
    Good luck.

  • Brand new iPhone 4 not vibrating

    On Sunday 2nd I got my first ever iPhone yipee! Got it from t-mobile on a 2 year contract. However, as I came to use the phone in silent mode today I realised it wasn't vibrating at all. It is checked as on to vibrate both in silent mode and whenever I recieve a message or call in normal mode and yet I have never felt it vibrate. I downloaded the ibrate app and sure enough this didn't vibrate. From reading around I've tried leaving the app running, tapping the back of the phone all to no avail
    Even though I didn't buy my iPhone from apple should I still be booking an appointment at the genius bar or should I speak to someone at t-mobile first? If I go to apple is it likely to need to be repaired/replaced and how long should I expect these processes to take?
    Thanks for any help :3

    Wow... talk about a whiny little brat.
    Name one other company that would not require the user to return defective product to the place of purchase for exchange or refund?
    Get over yourself... the world does not revolve around you.
    Defective products happen, nothing is perfect.

    Hello everyone,

  • Verify whether i got a brand new iphone?

    hello,
    how can i verify whether i've received a brand new iphone or not? the salesperson, opened the box and activated behind a high desk, (where i could not see). the phone is making noises (from speaker i believe), when i keep it near my CPU(PC), which also has speakers built in front of the chassis.
    And since, iphones can be reseted to factory defaults, an old one will look lik exactly new, unless until we know which serial number was initially sold to whom?
    So i want to know whether the serial# i own (iphone i.e.) does actually belong to me as a first user or not? before i go back into the store...
    If i send the serial # of my phone to Apple, will they send me the first user name?
    thank you.

    When you bought a phone, unless you specifically asked for a refurbished phone, you received a new phone. However, if you returned your phone for warranty work, and your phone was replaced, it was either a new or refurbished phone, dependent on the store's inventory. The fact it could be new or refurbished under warranty is part of the warranty agreement and that is what you get. Refurbished phones are exactly that, one that has been refurbished and inspected by Apple. Those units get more of a quality control inspection than brand new phones.
    If you are concerned about your new phone and your warranty, then just enter your serial number at the Apple page and it will tell you your warranty dates. If you get a replacement phone under warraty, your warranty will continue until the original expiration date of your warranty. The refurbished phone is warrantied as well.

  • Iphone 4 set up query have a brand new iphone 4, I have plugged it in using the wall charger and it does not seem to be doing anything. Trying to turn it on it is not working either. Is there some vital part of set up I have missed or is this a dud??

    I have just received a brand new iphone 4 in the mail. I have plugged it in using the apple wall charger for around 3 hours now and it does not seem to be doing anything. Tried to plug it into the computer, again no response. Trying to turn it on has not had any success either. Should I be concerned that the screen is blank and not showing a charging symbol?? Have I missed some vital step in set up??
    Thanks for your help!!!!

    Try resetting the phone:
    Press the sleep/wake button & home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release.
    Then, launch iTunes & connect your phone...what happens?

  • Brand new iPhone 5s will not turn on

    I purchased a brand new iPhone 5s for my daughter and when we went to turn it on this morning, it would not turn on. I charged the phone, in case that was the issue but still nothing but a black screen. I connected to itunes and tried to restore the iPhone features, it recognized that it was an iphone but gave me an error 40 and the apple logo and progress bar was only visible. Once I diconnected from itunes, the screen went blank again. I also made sure that our iMac updates were completely up to date and that there were no security settings blocking its use, but still no luck.
    Any suggestions?

    Check for hardware issues
    Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the alert when you update or restore, contact Apple support.

  • My phone all of the sudden is off and will not turn back on. It's a brand new iPhone 5

    My phone all of the sudden is off and won't turn back on.

    Hi Ashley0607,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with your iPhone 5.
    Follow the steps below if the iPhone is not powering on:
    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.
    I hope this information helps ....
    Have a great day!

  • My brand new iPhone 5 keeps saying "Connection Unsuccessful: Make sure "___" is turned on and in range" when I try to connect to my BlueTooth Stereo.

    I just bought a brand new iPhone 5 (White and Gold) and have been having trouble keeping it connected to my BlueTooth Stereo.  The stereo was purchased brand new back in September and is current on all software.  Before I had my iPhone 5, I had the iPhone 4 and had no troubles with it connecting or remembering to connect to the stereo when it was in range.  Now, in order to connect to it, I have to first "forget the device" then search for it again, find it, and connect.  As soon as I turn either the stereo off, turn the iPhone off, or switch modes on the stereo (to CD mode, radio, etc) it loses the connection and does not pick it up again.  It still shows up in my list of available bluetooth devices, but when I try to connect it says "Connection Unsuccessful: Make sure '____' is turned on and in range" which of course, it is.
    I bought this stereo because I am a music teacher and use my phone frequently when teaching my classes.  You can probably imagine how cumbersome it becomes when after each class if I have alternated between using my iPhone to play music or switching to CD mode, I then need to "forget the device" and follow the steps I outlined above to get it working again.
    Has anyone else had this problem with the new iPhone and does anyone have a solution (I HOPE!!!!!)
    Thanks!

  • Siri not working on brand new iPhone 4S - using 4G or Wi-Fi

    Siri not working on brand new iPhone 4S - using 4G and Wi-Fi
    I have tried multiple times over numerous days in multiple locations
    Any hints?

    Well to start your iPhone 4S does not have 4G... it just shows 4G at the top of the screen..
    Try turning SIRI off and on.. if that does not work
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings..
    Because SIRI is a network connection to a server nothing more.. it is not on your device so nothing is wrong with your phone..
    Also SIRI is in BETA... and not 100%

  • HT1766 Got a brand new iphone 4s, went to bed with it fully chearged, woke up and the phone is off, can't turn it on!!! Help

    I got a brand new Iphone 4s, fully charged as I went to bed. Woke up to see the time and I was expecting a call. The screen was blank, I can not turn it on. Nothing is happening. I 'm in freeze mode. How can I turn it on?

    First be sure it's charged.  If you're not sure, plug your charger into a wall outlet for at least 15 minutes.  If it's still unresponsive, try to reset it: hold the on/off and home buttons until you see the Apple logo (ignore the off slider that appears first), then release.

  • After i got it 10 mints my brand new iphone 6's screen begin to flickering then turn black

    weeks ago i ordered a iPhone 6 on apple.nz website, i got it delivered yesterday afternoon, 10 min after first turning on the screen of my brand new iPhone 6 began flickering a little, i thought it will be fine, but then the situation getting worse. At very beginning, i can fix it with holding the home key, but later this solution did not work, the screen flickering badly then  the whole screen faded into black. i have to restarted it couple times to make my phone work again.
    so this morning i chat with the online service ten call the service number of New Zealand, they asked me to restore my iPhone by iTunes, so i did. but after that the flickering get more frequently , and the speed of turn black is getting faster.
    it makes me stop all my work trying to make this iPhone 6 back to work, i spent about 4 hours in total  calling the service center. i feel REALLY ANGRY NOW!
    also i noticed that when i open the safari the home page is Apple China, I  saw some  comments about the products from China have many  functional problem. If it was really i sincerely hope the apple company could take this seriously.

    Okay, so after the call to restore the device and it didn't work, what did they tell you to do next? Since the device is brand new, it is still covered under the warranty, and it is still under the 14 day return policy. Take advantage of that and get a new one. You think that an occasional defective device is that bad? You are not going to get 100% perfect devices. Most companies are happy with 10% rejects getting out into the retail market. Given the record number of these things sold, you realize what 10% is?
