Help!! It wont turn on..

My phone was working untill i disconnected it from my computer, since then i have not been able to turn my phone on, the most i get from it is the apple logo for 1 second which subsequently disappears any thought? I'm at my wits end. I'v tried to reset, no such luck, wont turn on.

After reading a few posts on this issue, I'm beginning to think that something from the Software Update seems to be zapping everyone's iBook screens. I took did the full Software Update installs one night and since then my iBook screen refuses to work, despite all the advice I was given concerning it (removing the battery, zapping the PRAM, etc). The computer works perfectly fine, it just the screen no longer functions.
Now I suspect it has to have been some sort of hardware upgrade or something, because I've tried using various boot disks (like DiskWarrior) and the screen still doesn't work.
This is certainly turning into an epidemic!

  • Please Help S4 wont turn on

    Someone please help I have tried to update my phone but now it wont turn on. It has the little green man and says 'installing system update' all it does is get to 100% vibrate, turn off then come back on again with 'recovery booting' in the top left corner then it goes back to the little green man

    Your welcome.. I'll add if your close by a Corporate Verizon store you might see what they can do for this issue. they might be able to get the update to push through or they could run a Factory Wipe and start the process over again, but they should be able to get it fixed for ya..  Good Luck.. b33

  • Help zen wont turn o

    hey this is my first post so sorry if info isnt right but can someone please try to help..
    i had the zen 6gb for a xmas present and have only used it a couple of times but now it wont switch on. I fully charged it and took it to work to listen to and it wouldn't switch on at all. when i got home i pluged it back into my pc and it did eventually charge. I switched it back off once fully charged and have just tried to switch it back on and its not turning on again. i have once again pluged it back in and it wont respond to anything, has anyone else had this problem and is my player faulty and needs replacing?
    thanks
    soph

    I have a similar problem. I just recieved my Zen 8GB in the mail yesterday. I brought it to a full charge and transfered a few songs to it. Tested it out and it worked great for 4 or so hours. I then attached it to my PC to transfer a larger amount of my music library to the player.
    When done I unplugged the player and it immediately powered off. I tried to turn it on, the Creative logo fires up, then I get a garbled white screen and it powers down (never gets to the ZEN logo).
    If I plug it back into my PC it poweres up all the way and goes to the "Docked" screen.
    Naturally, I tried resetting the device to no avail so my next course of action was to upgrade the firmware. I did so (to .2.0 released about a week or so ago) and that did not resolve the issue. So I booted up into the service mode (holding down play while pressing power) and the player boots up fine and holds its powered-on state. So I'm not positi've its the battery.
    At this point I did a full flush of the firmware through the service screen?and re-installed the latest release that way. Still no dice. The player will not get past the "creative" logo when booting from the battery.
    I have attained an RMA and will be sending the player back to Creative today. I'm concerned that they will plug it in and see it boots to docking mode and send it back to me as is. Personally, I'm quite upset that I could not locate a customer service telephone number online and that the text-box through which you explain your issue for the RMA only allows about 200 characters.
    Overall experience so far (not owning a product for a full day and discovering I need to be without my new product for up to 5 additional days, not being able to TALK with a customer service representati've to fully explain my issue) has not been a good one. Lets hope it comes back in working order.

    Thank you sir for your reply, but the problem existed before the rooting.
    amralomari,
    I advise sending the phone to a Nokia Care Centre or to the retailer where you have acquired the phone for further device evaluation. Since you have mentioned that you have rooted the device, the warranty may get marked invalid by the Care Point.

    As far as trying to power up your device, make sure it has a good charge and then hold the button on the top of the phone and the home button on the faceplate together until the apple appears on the screen.

    Try to backup and restore you device in itunes...restoring the device is like removing the iOS software off the device and re-add in a newer software, after you have restore you device, MAKE SURE YOU SET UP YOUR DEVICE LIKE A NEW DEVICE, DONT NOT RESTORE FROM BACKUP!!... give the device a chance to use the newer software and see if the issue still persisting, if the issue still on going then its would be a hardware issue.
    Call Apple Care and see if your device is still under warranty to get it replace

  • Hi i have a an iphone 4 that wont turn on or restore. i managed to get it in recover mode but get error 21. the apple sign will *** on then off nd repeats..please help i dnt have warranty i brought it brand new but off the streets..

    my iphone4 was workiing fine till i tried to upgrade to os7. The upgrade stopped because i didnt have enough juice and i just had lost my charger. Right after that i noticed the home button wasnt working right so i turned the phone off and attempted to tuurn it back on but nothing happened and i know i had like 20% of battery life left when i turned it off. i searched on the internet and found out i probably had to restore it. so i got it to go into recovery mode and connected it to my computer and itunes. itunes recognized the device said i had to restore it so i clicked the button. It started to do whatever it does but out of nowhere error 21 pops up.i also noticed that right before the error 21 message came up the phone did try to come on(apple came up) but then it cut right back off and repeated that over and over....i need self-help solutions because i dnt have warranty or $85 to send it in because i just paid $100. can i get it jailbroken even though it wont turn on? will that fix it? thank you for taking the time to read this even if you dont have an answer. Have a nice day people

    We don't discuss jailbreaking in this Apple hosted forum, and in any case, it's never recommended. Have you tried this:
    Turn your phone off and connect your cable to the computer, but not the device just yet. Start up iTunes. Now, hold down the home button on your phone and plug it in to the cable - don't let go of the button until iTunes tells you it's detected a phone in recovery mode. Now you can restore to factory settings.
    Edit: I see it looks like you've already tried this. Here's an article about specific error numbers in iTunes: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
