  • Cant turn iphone back on

    please help! i reseted my iphone but when i turn it back on the apple icon appear and stays like that. What should i do? PLEase help

    When you say reset, you pressed and held the home button and the sleep/wake button until you saw the Apple logo and then released? It should have started itself back. You can try another reset to see if that starts it, if not, you can force it into the restore mode. Open iTunes on the computer, press and hold the home button only for a few seconds, then plug the iPhone into the dock or the cable. iTunes should then recognize the phone in recovery mode and restore it.

  • My lock screen button is not working and i turned off my iphone with assistive touch. Now i cant turn my phone back on!

    I used assistive touch to turn off my iphone, because my lock screen button is not working, so now i cant turn it back on! What i did was, i went to assistive touch, then i held down the lock screen button to turn it off. Now i can't turn it back on.

    To turn it back on when you use assistive touch, all you have to do is plug your iphone into a charger and it will power back on

    My iphone randomly turned off out of nowhere. I was getting dressed, my phone was working one minute then literally the next it syopped now it wont charge i cant turn it on however the phone is on cause i called it and it rang. What to do? help please. I tried putting it in DFU mode but my lock button doesnt work and my phone wont charge so i cant connect to itunes

    There is no reason to put it in DFU mode, a reset should work.  Although, without a working power button it is not possible to reset the device.
    Sounds like it is time to replace the damaged device.

    - Turned off iphone with the dubblebutton execution
    - tried turning on PIN code in the settings ( the button is all grey when I try)
    - Tried restoring it from PC and on the phone itself ( requieres to turn off "find my iphone, wich i cant )

    Did you get this figured out?  I'm having hte same issue

    tried upgrading to ios7 then said i didnt have enough storage so attempted to delete apps in usage and turned my icloud on, now iphone wont leave the settings app. cant turn off or return to home. tried connecting to itunes and no change. help!

    You need to reset the phone, but that requires a functioning on/off (lock) button.  Time to visit Apple.
