How do i get my iphone to turn on?

My iPhone 4s still wont turn on.. I have done all of the following and its not even bothering to turn on at all. It has been on the charger for an hour and still nothing. There is too many problems with iPhone's turning off on there own. If my phone isn't on in the morning then Im sending it back to Apple ASAP! This is comepletely ridiculous, who should have to go through all of this trouble for a phone?!!!!

What do you mean by "turn on the screen"?
Are you talking about a faulty proximity sensor?
More information please

  • HT4061 My screen will not turn on at all. But i can still hear sounds from when i would hit the home button. How could i get my iPhone to turn on?

    The screen to my phone will not turn on at all. I could hear the sound it makes when I do press on the home button. But the screen is not and will not respond and turn on. I plugged it in the charger to see if it'll do anything, but that didnt do anything. So I plugged it in the charger to my computer and even that didnt help with the situation. So how can I get my screen to turn on?

    See Here for  >  Frozen or unresponsive iPhone
    Try this First...
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...

  • How do I get my iphone to turn back on...can't get a response

    My iphone recently shut off.  I can't get it to charge or come back on.
    What do I do

    Try a Reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.  You may need to hold the buttons for as long as a minute.
    If this doesn't work, you have a 1 year warranty.  Make an appoiintment at the Genius Bar and let Apple look at it.

  • How do I get my iPhone to turn back on?

    I was at my friends house, and it was dying, so I used her moms charger. The next day after I left I went out to eat. I assumed it would die while we were eating so I left it in the car. When I came back it was dead. When I got home, I plugged it into the charger. It was there for at least an hour and it still wouldn't turn on. I thought there might be something wrong with the charging chord so I switched it to another one. Still it wouldn't turn on. It's been on the charger now for over 10 hours. Yes, I have tried holding down the buttons, and still it won't turn on. I havent had this phone for even a year yet.

  • How do I get my iPhone 4 to stop locking as soon as I turn it off

    How do I get my iPhone 4 to stop locking as soon as I turn it off

    Do you mean that it's requiring a passcode lock as soon as it goes to sleep and you want a longer delay:
    Settings>General>Passcode Lock>Require Passcode Lock and change it to the length of time you want.
    Note: If you have a work email account on your phone, it may control how long before the passcode lock is required.
    Best of luck.

  • I tried every single procedure to get my iPhone 5 turn on but none would work including the hard restart (for over 2 minutes, that's how much I'm desperate), connecting it to itunes, connecting it to a dock, everything! ANYTHING ELSE I CAN DO?

    If nothing else is working you can try to put it into recovery mode and restore it that way. Plug in you cable to your computer and make sure your phone is off...hold the home button while you plug the cable into your phone, continue holding the button until a logo pops up showing itunes and cord going towards it, then you can let go of your home button and itunes will prompt you that it detects a phone in recovery mode and make you restore it

  • How can I get my iPhone to stop promting me to enter my wife's Apple ID when updating apps? I've checked settings for iTunes

    How can I get my iPhone 6 to stop prompting me to enter my wife's Apple ID when updating apps? I have verified in settings that my acct is listed in itunes & App Store, as well as icloud. i can download new apps fine. Have shut down phone and re-powered, have tried plugging into my iMac while signed into my iTunes acct. Can't figure out what to do next?

    Is the comp a synced device to your apple ID and approved as an active device for this synchronization?
    Just cloud the sync once, activate the comp to your apple I'd in iTunes, ensure all software is up to date, turn on home sharing between the devices and you can reinstall the apps from the apple id purchase history via download.
    You basically cleaned out the canonical data apple uses to validate all that, which was backup data. Like iOS devices have the purchased option on the App Store now, syncing the devices via the home sharing and properly activating them will give your comp the purchased cloud and free up 10gs of space on the precious solid states smaller drives.
    Hope that helps...
    If you need to know the menu to find this info, let me know. But the info is easily accessible in the help menu.

    When I place my iPhone in my Bose docking station, it plays music through the iPhone's speakers.  How do I get my iPhone to route music playing through the Bose's speakers?  My Nano plays just fine in my docking station.

    Did you check to see that shuffle is is turned off?  To do this, while playing a song tap the cover art to reveal the additional controls if they are not already visible (see photo below).  Then tap the shuffle button (bottom right) until it turns white (white is off).

  • How can I get my iPhone out of landscape mode and back to portrait?

    How can I get my iPhone out of landscape mode and back to portrait? Tilting the phone doesn't work.

    Try following - 1 by 1:-
    * make sure portrait lock is not on & try turning on/off several times
    * turn off mobile and turned it back on
    * hard reset by pressing lock and home at same time
    If problem persist, you need to try following but be careful since the following impact your iphone.
    * resetting all setting: this will reset all settings of your iphone back to factory setting
    * resetting all setting by erasing all data: this will reset all setting and erase all data so do back-up and proper syncing and read relevant details
    * restoring from itunes: this will also erase all data and take mobile back to day 1
    last 3 options are last resort and only be done if you are sure you can restore your data.
    Please don't hold me responsible for any data loss while doing last 3 options

    How to i get my iphone 5 unstuck from a frozen apple logo

    Hello Beau460,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3281
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
    If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
    If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
    Let charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
    If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
    If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
    Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more aboutrestoring iOS software.
    If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
    Best of luck,

    how can i get my iphone to work without itunes

    You don't need a computer at all to activate and use a phone running iOS 5 or 6.
    Turn it on, go through the activation steps on screen, and you're up and running.
    Are you having some kind of problem you'd like help with, or is this just a hypothetical question?

    iPhone 4 crashed during ios update (5.0.1) and won't restore. anyone know how i can get my iPhone working again?

    Try to force your phone into recovery mode. Disconnect it from the computer's USB cord. Turn it off if you can by holding the sleep/wake switch until you see the red slide to off. If you can't turn it off, please continue. Press and hold the home button while plugging it into the computer's USB cord. Continue holding the Home button while iPhone starts up. While starting up, you will see the Apple logo. When you see "Connect to iTunes" on the screen, you can release the Home button and iTunes will display the recovery mode message. See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 for details.
    Then you can restore your phone: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
