Hello,
Please help me! My iPhone 4 (iOS 5.1) won't boot (it's just frozen on the Apple logo!) Please help! I don't want to restore it because I have iLife in there!
Hi gdmacguy,
I can't restore from backup becuase my phone is passcode-protected. I'm trying to restore as new device now.

my iphone 5 on the ios 7.1.2 suddenly wont fully turn on...it gets stuck on the apple logo and stays like that for approximately to 90 secs then goes blank but I can see a bit of lighting behind the dark screen....it goes off by itself and comes on by itself trying to boot but still gets stuck on the apple logo after the dim light shows....when I connect to iTunes my phone can only be recognised only in recovery mode thus if I force it into recovery mode. My main worry is I don't have a back up of any of my data...on icloud I have just less than 2GB of my data which is as a result of incomplete back up...HOW CAN I GET THIS PHONE WORKING AGAIN WITHOUT LOSING MY DATA...if I can only just recover my data I would really appreciate it as I really need almost everything on it back...if I can only get retrieve my data and lose the phone I wouldn't mind at all....Anybody know how to resolve this??Kind Regards
Anyone have any suggestions? or is everyone else just as clueless as me !

I need help!!! I dropped my iphone from the couch to the floor, really not a big fall... it automatically turned off and got stuck with the apple logo, I already did the reseting process on itunes using the DFU mode or however its called... and it erased all my data and now its still stuck!!!
Does anybody know what can I do?? Please help!If the iPhone is recognized by iTunes, restore it. At the end of the restore process, when you're prompted to by iTunes, do not restore from backup. This will eliminate corrupted/damaged files as the issue.
If the issue persists, it looks like you may need to make a second trip to the Apple store.
Good luck -

I just got back from apple and they swapped me another iphone and i came home and i plugged it in and wanted to restore everything back to my iphone and now its been vibrating like i just put it to charge, it keeps on vibrating 2 times then 5 sec later it vibrates again and again.

I took my iphone out of the usb port of my computer because it showed that it was done, like on the top it said nothing like syncing or backing up iphone. It was already finished but it was still on the apple logo and the spinning thing was still there. So i just took it out and it started acting like that. PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!!! and i restarted it, i held the top and the bottom button. PLEASE HELPP!! Thank you!

Apple Discussions HostsAdd me to the list of people furious with Apple about this problem...
...I have just got back from a 2 week holiday in Spain, and on day 3 of the holiday my iPhone rebooted itself and stuck at the Apple logo.
What's more annoying, I'd purchased a data abroad plan from o2 for £50 and hardly used it because I couldn't use my iPhone because it was stuck on the **** Apple logo. o2 will not refund the plan I purchased because I had started to use it (about 2.3MB to be precise).
Good job my girlfriend had her trusty Sony Ericsson phone because at least it WORKS as a phone, unlike this **** iPhone 3G which only has one use - as an expensive paperweight.
Come on Apple, at least admit there is a problem and show your loyal customers that you are actually aware there is a serious problem that is causing your iPhones to become utterly useless.
I'm seriously thinking of gettting rid of this iPhone and getting a cheap no frills phone - at least I can use it to make calls. -
My iphone 3g got stuck with the apple logo and loading bar since last night when i try to reset the iphone pls help thanks!
Can you reset the phone by holding the on/off switch and home button down until your phone reboots and the Apple logo again displays?

My iphone 4 screen is stuck with the apple logo on it , Help!
My iphone 4 screen is stuck with the apple logo on it and i have tried holding the home button and power button down for 20 seconds but nothing is happining , meaning the phone isnt loading up has anyone got any idea what the problem could be ?
Plug the phone into your computer via the USB cable and open iTunes.
Once you have connected the phone to your computer and opened iTunes, hold the home and sleep buttons down until it goes blank. You are now in DFU mode. Click the restore button in iTunes.
Note: You will lose all data. You can restore from a backup if you previously saved one. -
How can you fix your iphone when it is stuck on the apple logo
My Friend has an iPhone 3G(S) and he wanted to put music on his iPhone. So he connected it to iTunes and said that the iPhone Had an iOS update. so he did the update and after the update, it got stop on the apple logo and it got an error and the iPhone is not responding and it is stuck on the Apple Logo.
Alright Hernan there are a couple of steps you could try.
Your first step has been mentioned twice, that is a "Hard reset". This can be done by holding both the Power/Lock Button (Top left hand corner of the device) and the Home Button (Circular button in the Bottom-Middle of the device) for about 3-5 seconds until the device shuts down, then attempt to start it up again.
If this fails, you may have to take a rather drastic measure and put the device into "Forced Recovery Mode". This will erase all your data on your iPhone (So I'd hope you won't have to do this unless you backed up recently) and reset it to an empty device.
To do this, head over to this article on the Apple Support Site and follow the instructions.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808.
It does say for unable to restore or update, but look for the section where it says "Use the following steps to place your device into recovery mode."
Hope this helps you!

Hi, I'm having trouble with my Ipad 2. I was recently playing a game and my ipad just shut off on me. Then when I turned it back on it was stuck on the Apple Logo and it won't go to the home screen at all. I plugged it in my itunes but I don't know what to do from there. I left it charged hoping the apple logo would dissappear but it didn't and now for some reason the battery is always dead. I really need help. Does anybody have any suggestions? Please.
Did you try rebooting the iPad? You will need to have some battery power for this.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

That's almost certainly why you can't restore. you will have to go to Non-Apple forums for help with jailbroken phones, both because Apple won't allow discussions of JB phones and because few people here know how to resolve it. It's especially difficult as there are many different ways to JB, and your solution will depend on how you did it and what version you JB'd. -
My iPhone 4's stuck on the apple logo?
My iPhone isn't jailbroken, just to get that out of the way. I had about 9 updates in the App store, so I updated a few. After I did that, my iPhone was pretty slow so I turned it off. I tried turning it back on but it won't work? It's just stuck on the apple logo and doesn't say anything else. I've tried holding down the buttons, together and alone but all it does is just restart the whole thing again, which just keeps getting stuck on the apple logo. HELP!
I have left it there charging. It turns on, then the brightness decreases, next it brightens, and in the end the apple logo is gone and it turns white and shuts off. It repeats the same everytime.

I dropped my iphone 4 and it shut off and when i tried to cut it on it wouldnt. so i connected it to a power source and it tunred on but stay stucked on the apple logo. so when i discounted it shut off. it only turns on when connected to a power source but not on its own. i tired to connect it to itunes no help, i tried to press the home and power button still no help.
Your last try would be a restore if you can get iTunes to recognize the phone. If not, you have probably damaged the device beyond repair. You can go to see Apple about an out of warranty replacement. The cost for the iPhone 4 is $149US, you can check for your location.

P.S Excuse my english.Hey Edgar, how exactly did you do the updates? Are you running iTunes 11.2.2? And you iPod 5 is still running iOS 6.1.2 as your tag shows? or are you running iOS 7.1.1? More info would be helpful. As Deggie asked, what was the error message, the more detailed the better. One more thing-- is this a Mac machine or a PC? Cheers.
