Can't get phone to turn back on!
Last night I dropped my phone accidently from about 2 ft off the ground. When I picked it up, I noticed it wouldnt turn back on. This morning I tried to plug it into my charger, and I noticed that they red light came on for a second and then my screen flashed white with the hourglass on it for about half a second.
Is there anything I can do to fix it? becuase I really love this phone and would hate to lose it.

My macbook pro randomly switched off and wont turn back on. I have tried to charge it but it wont work. How can I get it to turn back on??
It's more than likely broken, a part has failed. You need to take it to a Apple store Genius Bar to be checked out and fixed. Or just buy a new Mac as to fix the one you have might be cost prohibitive. Especially if your warranty has expired.

My phone turned off unexpectedly and it won't turn back on...what to do??
A reset may help: Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off button at the same time for approximately 10-15 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears release both buttons and await restart.

My iMac screen went black and now I can't get it to turn back on
I turned my computer on this morning and everything was fine, but then my screen suddenly went black. Naturally, I looked over all the forums I could but realised mine was a unique case... Upon pressing the start up button, I heard no noise (my computer wasn't on mute) and shining a light on the black screen did not show me anything on the screen was still there.
I think it might be dead for good, but in case it isn't I would be open to hearing what anyone has to say!Boot to the Recovery Volume (command - R on a restart or hold down the option/alt key during a restart and select Recovery Volume). Run Disk Utility Verify/Repair and Repair Permissions until you get no errors. Then re-install the OS.

Macbook just crashed out of nowhere and I can't get it to turn back on!
My macbook suddenly just crashed on me out of nowhere and I held down the power button to turn it off and it made that little noise when you hold it down and it shuts off. I pressed the power button again and the screen doesn't even come up, only the little light in the bottom right hand corner of the laptop is glowing and like every 5 minutes it makes that noise whenever you flip open the macbook to wake it. What do I do?!
+...and like every 5 minutes it makes that noise whenever you flip open the macbook to wake it+
I'm not sure I understand this part of your description. Do you open it every 5 min? - or do you open it (and there's nothing on the screen) and then after 5 min it makes a noise?
Anyway, try an SMC reset...
