My iPhone 4 wont turn on, It wont go passed the charging icon and then when I take the charger out it says it needs charge. Its not the charger as iv tried several and holding lock and home button doesnt work please help!!!!!
Hello there, Conorjl7.
The following Knowledge Base article provides some good, practical steps for troubleshooting issues with charging:
iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1476
Particularly:
If your battery doesn't charge, or if your device shows a low-battery image, black screen, or "accessory not supported" alert, follow these steps.
Inspect the connector at the bottom of the phone:
Make sure that there are no bent pins in the connector.
Make sure that the connector is free from debris.
If there are bent pins or debris, please contact Apple Support.
Otherwise, continue troubleshooting.
Make sure that the outlet you're using works.
Make sure that the Apple USB cable and Apple USB power adapter work.
Plug the device in to power and let it charge for up to 30 minutes. If you don't have an Apple USB power adapter, try connecting to a computer's high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be on.
If the device still exhibits an issue, try turning your device off and then on again while connected to power.
If the issue is persists, please contact Apple Support.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro. -
My iphone 4s' screen is black, but it's still on and charging. I broke my lock screen button so I am unable to turn it off using the home button and lock button. Is there any other way my phone can restart or turn off ? Is my phone broken for sure?

Most intelligent people would not store such sensitive data on a device that could so easily be lost, stolen, or damaged. Even if they chose to do so, they would use the device as designed and regularly sync and backup that device as described in the User's Guide.
Have you done so? If you have, all of the data is either in iCloud or iTunes on your computer. Replace the device and restore the new iDevice with the backup of the old one. -
My ipod touch 5th gen. 16gb ios 8.1.2 wont turn on, i press the power button and nothing happens, and my home button doesnt work, PLEASE HELP ME OUT!!!
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

IPod Touch 5 won't turn on and home button broken
Hello,
So my iPod Touch 5 has been having accumulating issues lately. I've only experienced this issue once before about a year ago. My iPod Touch goes into a state where it can't be turned on by the power button. I've looked up solutions online several times. While the next best thing for me to do is to hold the power button along with the home button in order to restart it, my home button has been jammed for about a year now. I've been using assistive touch for a long time. The iPod does not respond to being charged nor being plugged into my computer. I've had to wait until the battery completely ran out before I could start charging and using it again. This issue has been occurring more and more often, and it's really hindering my ability to keep up with emails, games, and many school-related projects.
I've had this iPod Touch 5 for about 1.5 years now. The home button being jammed was an issue that occurred during the original 12-month warranty that came with buying the product back in the summer of 2013. I thought it was alright to just go with assistive touch for a while, but the jammed button became an issue that just became worse and worse until the button cannot even be pressed anymore. By this time, the 12-month warranty period was over. (This is the 2nd Apple product I've had power/sleep button issues with.)
I live in Chicago, and the cold weather is starting to set in. However, it was still over ~25 degrees F when this happened. I feel that this issue is not so much weather related because it has happened to me twice during comfortable summer weather.
I have a feeling that I may have to go in to the Apple Store in order to get help with this, but the potential repair or replacement fee is probably going to be terribly high. Any ways I can prepare for this visit before going in? Is there anything else I can do at home to get my iPod to live its life again?My home button broke too after 13 months. The iPod's been lagging and slowing down a lot but for a $300 device, it shouldn't be breaking after a year. Just today it was working ok but then all of a sudden it's not turning on, its not responding to the power button, being charged, or being plugged into the computer, don't know what to do either

My iphone 4s will not allow me to open applcations that I have downloaded. I have tried a few things but still will not allow me to open. Shows they are open once pushing the home button twice. Please help!
Pressing the Home button twice does not show you what apps are running. It shows you what apps were recently used.
Download a free app from the App Store. Once it downloads, your other apps should work properly again. -

Try a reset. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the red slider.

Did full reset now I am locked out help
help
Plug your iPod into your machine with iTunes open. Hold the sleep (lock) and home button for ten seconds. After ten seconds release the sleep (lock) button but keep pressing on the home until you hear the device connect. This will put it into DFU (Default Factory Unit) mode. iTunes should recognize it at this point.
Once iTunes recognizes the device, it will show a message saying that it has detected a device in recovery mode, click ok then restore.
