Fully charged iphone 4 died will not reboot.
My fully charged iphone 4 died mid conversation yesterday. I tried turning it back on with the sleep/wake and home button with 2 different cables and two different chargers. I tried this again with both cables with it connected to my macbook. Nothing. Apple phone support had me retry everything i had done including trying to put the iphone into recovery mode still nothing. So at my wits end i setup a genius appointment for 12am at the 5th avenue apple store in manhattan. (great staff by the way). The Techs confirmed non of the conventional suggestions worked. In the end they did exactly what i would have done had i had a 5 star screw driver. Take the battery out, put the battery back in.
BAM.
Not dead iphone. Hope this helps someone.
Have you tried to reset the iPhone by pressing and holding the sleep/wake button and the home button for 10-15 seconds until the Apple logo appears, ignore the red slider. Then turn back on. You won't lose any data doing the reset.

Sometimes my iPad1 locks up and has the flat battery graphic after charging all night, but will not work until you disconnect the charger, then it reboots and the battery is fully charged and works normally.
It has only happened for the last month or so
Also, sometimes it drops out of apps, ie facebook etc. just like you have hit the stop buttonWho replaced the battery? If it wasn't Apple the replacement is probably bad also. Either that, or the logic board is bad.

My fully charged iPhone 4 shut itself off this morning and wont turn back on. Any suggestions?
Have you tried holding down the home/power button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up. If that doesn't work, try that step again but with your phone plug into your Mac.

I was updating the software on my iphone4. I got a message saying that it could not update. Now my iphone will not reboot. It only shows a pic to connect to itunes, but nothing is happening when i connect it. How do I fix this?
If you're not a developer then you really should not have upgraded.
I'm unsure how you can fix this as you have already done a back-up on iOS 7 and apple don't support firmware downgrades. -

My fully charged iPhone has a black screen and is not responding but has Siri and sound. I connected to laptop and iTunes gives error msg indicating phone is locked and I to enter passcode. but I can't enter the passcode because the screen is black. I have never syncd with iTunes. What can I do to get my phone back?
First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

my iphone 5s has been showing a blue screen and shuttiing down. yesterday night it did just that and now will not reboot or even restore through itunes.
what should i do?Your iPhone is in recoverty mode at the moment so to possibly get it back up and running you would need to do a restore as you have been trying. Follow the steps in the article below for the specific error messages you have been receiving. If after following all steps the issue remains book an appointment at a local Apple Retail Store to have the iPhone evaluated.

ipod touch is not recognized by itunes and i have executed all steps in the apple suggested troubleshooting, the device will not reboot either. Any suggestions?
Does it light up at all? If not, you could have a battery issue.

When my phone is not plugged into the charger or computer, it will not turn on at all; even though it is not dead. When it's plugged into the computer, it will go to a white screen with a grey apple icon and then it will turn off again and repeat. IOS7 and iPhone 5.

Try this step and if you cannot get your device into recovery mode there is a chance you have a hardware failure and you need to call apple to see what service options you have. -

My iPhone 6 plus will not automatically wi fi sync with iTunes 12 when attached to a power suppy
i can manually sync from phone or iTunes on MacBook but will not auto sync.
have latest versions of IOS8, OSX Yosemite and ITunes 12.Good day dexv,
There are three conditions that must be met in order for an iPhone to sync automatically over Wi-Fi. It sounds as if you have met one of them, can you check to see if the other two are met as well?
See this article -
Sync your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch with iTunes using Wi-Fi - Apple Support
The iOS device will sync automatically when the following conditions are true:
The iOS device is charging.
iTunes is open on the computer.
The iOS device and the computer are on the same Wi-Fi network.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Safe computing,
