HT201210 My iPhone suddenly died. Screen is blank. How can I reboot?

My phone suddenly died. Dark screen. Fully charged. Computer doesn't see it when I plug in to sync with iTunes. Just dead. But when someone calls, although the phone doesn't ring, it's like it is still there, as the incoming call doesn't go directly to voicemail as it would if the phone were turned off.

hold down home and power button for 10sec should reboot it
otherwise you need to wait for it to run out of batt in which case it's likely not going to be ok after the reboot as something more sinister would be afault

    Blank screen in itunes store-please help im not very technical and when i click on my itunes app the screen is blank how can i fix this please?

    See if any of the following fix it.
    Try logging out of your account on your phone by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and tap 'Sign Out' on the popup and then log back in.
    If that doesn't fix it then try closing the iTunes store app via the phone's multitasking bar and see if it works properly when you open the app : double-click the home button to open the taskbar and then swipe or drag iTunes from there up and off the top of the screen to close it, and the click the home button to close the taskbar.
    A third thing to try is a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot.

    First things first if your iPhone cannot be recognised by your computer then you wont be able to get those photos off the iPhone.
    In the event that it can be recognised you could import the photos to your PC/Mac. Follow the article below to do this:
    iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices
    Or you could do a back up on iTunes of the iPhone which would save the photos in your camera roll. The article below will guide you on how to do this:

  • My iPad just went blank, how can I reboot

    Hold down the home/power button together until you see the apple logo and then release.  Then wait for the ipad to boot back up.

  • Iphone 5 broken screen...How can I fix it?

    Can I even fix it.  I don't have even a month with it and it slipped from my hands yesterday.  I don't have any protection plan.  What can I do in this situation?

    Yes, your right. And the iPhone 4 & 4S is disassembled from the rear. ifixit.com says it take 38 steps to get to the display assembly and the glass is glued to the display so the whole thing has to be replaced. At least the iPhone 5 disassembles front to back, so the display assembly is the first step. But ifixit.com didn't say that the glass wasn't glued to the display. They just said that it should be easy to repair.

  • Satellite Pro S300 - Screen is blank and can't reboot

    About a week ago, I left my Satellite Pro S300-EZ2502 on overnight (as usual). It was fine that night.
    The next day, I had a black screen and a flashing amber light at the left side. I tried turning it off, rebooting, no dice. I have tried removing the battery and rebooting under just AC power, nothing, I have tried the opposite. Nothing. I have tried letting the battery run out and then recharge. No help. Very occasionally when I plug it back in, I will get a green light for a few seconds, but then back to the flashing amber light. Nothing EVER on the screen.
    I have only had this Notebook since MAY!! what is wrong!!

    This interests me, as I have three of these S series laptops and two have failed in similar manner so far.
    It can be rectified temporarily by removing the battery, then pressing the start button for several seconds to discharge the capacitor (Toshiba told me to do this) and then using the power cable to start up again. It usually works.
    Not very elegant to take out its guts though
    My problems started in late August early September - is this significant?
    Are you using XP or Vista?
    Toshiba have not mended the problem despite two journeys for repair for one machine.
    What does the blinking light sequence this orange light taps out mean? Nothing in the papers I have looked at.
    My machines were bought in March

    Hello waseem.abdul_hadi,
    It may be that your Screen Curtain has been activated. This can be deactivated by triple-tapping the screen with three fingers.
    Turn the screen curtain on or off. Triple-tap with three fingers. When the screen curtain is on, the screen contents are active even though the display is turned off.

  • HT1766 my iphone screen is blank how do i fix it

    my iphone screen is blank how do i go about restoring it to factory setting .

    Before you do a factory default reset, try just resetting the phone.  Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down until the Apple logo appears on the screen and wait for phone to restart itself.
    If this doesn't help, you will need to turn on iTunes on your computer.  Connect your phone using the sync cable.  Select the phone in iTunes on the left hand navigation panel.  On the phone's summary page in iTunes click the Restore button and wait for the phone to restore itself.  If iTunes asks if you want to restore from a backup say no.  Or you will be right back to where you were.
    You will have to re-load all your apps and music.  If you have any pictures that you want to save, see if you can connect the phone to your computer without iTunes running.  Then in your computer browser (Not sure if you are on Windows or Mac) see if you can find your phone.  If so, open it up like a drive, open the folder that contains your pictures and drag them to a folder on your computer.
    By not restoring from a backup you lose everything and really do get back to factory settings.  Which means starting from scratch.

    Help. My iPad email screen went blank. I have rebooted, reset and deleted and reinstalled my email accounts to no avail. Any other suggestions?

    Restore from iTunes. It is hard to say if you want to backup or rather revert to an old backup. I would recommend to save the previous backups to a safe place and then backup the current state and later test the backups incase your iPhone comes back to proper life.

  • My iPhone 6 plus screen was crashed, how much is the cost if I want to repair it at Apple? FYI: I didn't bought Applecare

    My iPhone 6 plus screen was crashed, how much is the cost if I want to repair it at Apple? FYI: I didn't bought Applecare+. I bought my iPhone 6 plus 3 months ago in Singapore.

    $129 US. https://www.apple.com/support/iphone/repair/screen-damage/ For local pricing call your nearest Apple store. If you live somewhere other than Singapore you'll have to send the phone to someone you trust in Singapore and have them take the phone in to have it repaired. iPhone's do not have an international warranty and can only be serviced in the country they were purchased.
