HT201263 my 4 is totally unresponsive, just flashes on and off?

All my 4 does is flash on and right back off again, never leaving the apple icon! I do not know what to do with it? i have tried a zillion times the power and home button at the same time, but nothing??

Thanks for the suggestion but I tried that and nothing happened. There is a line going horizontal on the screen with a lock looking thing at the end of the line then there is an arrow that leads up to the I Tunes word and symbol.
I plugged the i pad in and will try what you said again after the battery increases in case the battery was very low.
Do you have any other suggestions?

Ipod classic try to start but the apple just flashes on and off.

Ipod classic I try to start but the apple just flashes on and off.
I can't reset and it doesn't show it charging. Not recognized by computer.
It was working just fine in my car, I stopped for an hour, and when I came back it just started the flashing thing.
Anyone have any ideas?

Reset it this way.
After charging till full charge, at least 2 hours (preferably 4 hours)
Toggle the Hold switch, make sure you dont see the red mark when you do the next step
Reset the iPod -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs or till the Apple Logo comes ON
Then release the buttons
Select your preferred language.

If it is still not working.
Then Restore it using iTunes
Good Luck!

MacBook Air is just flashing on and off but not working after trying updates

This morning I got notification that I was supposed to update my MacBook Air with both update for iTunes and update for Firefox.
I hit yes to both.
Now I am just getting a constant flashing on and off and blank screen alternating with brief picture of the Apple with bar underneath it.
Have turned on and off several times and still won't work.
Ideas/

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
I don't think that the iTunes and Firefox updates could do this, but it looks like the logic board is damaged. What happens when you press Shift key while your Mac is starting?

My iphone won't turn on at all and when i connect it to a charger the apple sign just flashes on and off but does not turn on?

I've tried charging it overnight and it still will not turn on, when connected to the charger the apple sign just goes on and off but does not do anything, i've tried resetting it and this also does not work, but then once taken off the charger it doesn't even say the sign for charging it just does nothing

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.

HT1430 My I Pad is locked up. I got a message to update my I pad, so I did and everything froze up. I tried holding the sleep button as it says but a slider does not come up to shut it down. The apple symbol just flashes on and off. Any suggestions?

What can I do to unlock my I pad? When I did an apple update it just froze up. As stated above I held down the sleep button and waited for the red slider to tell me to shut it off but the apple symbol just kept blinking at me.
I just bought my I pad in August so it is still under warrenty.

HT4623 my ipod 4th generation - i can not get on settings? it just flashes on and off again. i can not update it

How do i sync my ipod touch with my laptop?

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

How do i fix my issue: Apple Logo flashes on and off after iphone battery died during IOS update?

I've tried the methods I've seen on youtube and other iphone tech help sites but I am still having the same problem. Today while updating to IOS 7 my iphone 4 battery died and I didnt have a charger, now that I am home an I put in on the charger I notice the apple logo just flashes on and off. I've tried to restores using the DFU mode with the home and power button but that only seem to stop the logo from flashing and even then the iphone still isnt recognised by the pc to restore, Is there any other way i can go about fixing this problem!!!!

You can try the steps recommended in the User Guide. If they don't work bring your phone into Apple for evaluation.

My ipad is stuck on the boot logo flashes on and off.

I I wont lie im sorry apple will never do it again. I had jailbroken my ipad to see what its like and I got tierd of it and deleted it but I didnt have a computer so I was going to delete it through cydia app. But a error accured and no apps would further open so I turned it off and when I turned it back on it got stuck on the apple logo and it just flashes on and off and doesnt do anything else. What can I do to fix it.

okay this a update to what is going on. I tried putting it in dfu mode again thinking maybe i didn't do it right the first time, so what happened was the loading bar went away but the apple logo stayed, after a few seconds it went back to a apple logo with a loading bar.
then a bit later iTunes said welcome to your new iPad so i clicked restore from back up for awhile it said estimating time but then it said a error occurred.

I am new to iphones and went to Itunes and it said my new iphone needed a software update. Now the apps that I put on wont work and when pressed just flash on then off the screen. I paid £20 for one of them so any help would be appreciated.

If you've had it for less than a year, then it's still under warranty. Take it to an Apple store or an authorized service facility. See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1434
