HT201263 Problem is a black screen. I have tried all the recommendation from the support article, however the iPhone 4 screen still remains black

Hi, My wife has developed a problem overnight after charging her phone. The Problem is a black screen. I have tried all the recommendation from the support article, however the iPhone 4 screen still remains black

Take the iPhone to an Apple store genius bar for testing, and if it is defective and under warranty they will replace.  Since you say iPhone 4, was this a used or refurbished iPhone?

  • I'm restoring a new iPad 2 (shattered the original).  Backed it up on the iCloud and have restored all apps, music, photo albums, etc.  However, the photo stream has not activated, so no photos have downloaded.  Photo Stream is fine on my Iphone and Mac.

    Hello there, Tamghosh.
    The following Knowledge Base article provides some good steps to use for troubleshooting the issue you're describing:
    iCloud: Photo Stream troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3989
    Particularly:
    I don't see photos in Photo Stream on my iOS device.
    Check the following:
    From your Home screen, tap Settings > iCloud > Photo Stream, and make sure the slider is set to the ON position.
    From the Home screen, tap Settings > Wi-Fi, make sure the slider is set to ON, and that your device is connected to a wireless network.
    Ensure that Camera app is closed on the device where you took the photo. Photo Stream will not upload photos from an iOS device until the Camera app is closed.
    Ensure your iOS device has not fallen below 20% battery power. To preserve battery life, Photo Stream downloading and uploading are disabled when the battery reaches this threshold. Downloading and uploading will resume once you charge your device, and the battery charge is greater than 20%.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,

    Probably a setting. Look at the manual.

  • HT1752 my powerbook g4 will not boot up. i get a blue screen. i have tried to start up in safe mode, but get the same blue screen.

    My Powerbook G4 (with Snow Leopard operating system) will not boot up, I get a blue screen. I have tried to start up in safe mode by holding down shift key after startup tone, but end up with same result...blue screen. I need important photos and documents of this laptop, Even if I can just get it started up one more time. Need help fast! If you know what to do, please message back.

    In the text you say you are using Snow Leopard. Snow Leopard will not operate on a G4 (or any Mac with a PowerPC processor). Leopard OS 10.5 is the max OS for PowerPC processor Macs. Your profile shows OS 10.5.6. What OS are you using (or trying to use)?

  • Can't get iTunes to install have done all Apple recommend on their support

    Hi Everyone,
    I am new to these and forums generally. And this request is on behalf of my teenage daughter, whose mini ipod I am trying to sort out.
    I have got a problem installing iTunes and I am really hoping that someone here can help, as Apple's support don't seem to know how to resolve it, so look at this as a challenge.
    I have gone through the recommendations that apple have given me and other than the itunesinstall,exe file on my desktop, I don't seem to have anything to do with iTunes or Quicktime on my computer, but when I try to install iTunes I get the following message: The installer encountered errors before iTunes could be configured.
    To try these operations at a later time, please run the installer again.
    Can anyone please please help, I am at my wits end here and have spent weeks searching for a way to simply install iTunes, Apple haven't been very helpful at all and I don't know what to do next.
    I hope to hear some positive suggestions. Thanks for reading.
    Hypnoman

    CoJeff,
    No I can't install Quicktime either, each time I try to install it I get a message 'The older version of Quicktime cannot be removed. Contact your technical support group.'
    I have gone through all the apple support pages and have removed every trace of Quicktime, from every part of my machine, yet it still says this every time.
    I have also shut down all the other programs that run in the background, when I have tried to install both iTunes and Quicktime.
    I just don't know what to do next, surely if apple don't have the ability to be able to sort this out, there is something wrong, but because my daughter's mini ipod is out of warranty (in fact prehistoric by todays standards) they aren't interested in helping.
    I hope you can perform some kind of miracle here and she would love to be able to use it again.
    Thanks

  • I continue to receive "Firefox unable to update error". Have tried all remedies suggested.

    I have tried all suggestions listed on your support site to correct this issue. Even after receiving the "something is causing Firefox not to be updated" message, I check the current version of Firefox and it says it is up-to-date. I have also uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it with the same results. Please help. Thanks.

    Make sure that your firewall isn't blocking the updater process.
    It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • My 1st gen apple tv displays a black screen,led status light is blinking orange constant. I have tried all the owners manuel tips but it appears to have locked up. Any advise?

    my apple tv 1st generation appears to have locked up. it constantly now displays only a black screen.No function reset etc from remote use.The led status is constantly blinking orange. I have tried all the manual tips etc but still blank. Any ideas anyone?

    Same/similar thing just happened to me....two days ago or so.  Ran fine for months since going from wifi (major problems) to ethernet now.
    I hadn't been on atv 1 for a few days and had it powered down.  Turned it on and it ran thru the startup video/sequence then did the ole sit on a black screen where you can hear the remote responses (say, if i hit left on the remote - the 'option not available' doink noise is made instead of the usual sound you'd get if you were moving to the left on the menu.....not sure if that description makes sense?
    The 'exit' or moving out of a menu 'noise' does sound, as does the enter/moving into a menu noise. 
    This has happened in the past, but more when i had it set up via wi fi.
    Thing is this time i left it sit on the black screen while reading the paper, and after about 5 minutes, the menu screen finally showed up.  Everything was really sluggish to start - but it was there.  But, then, i reset it to see if the sluggishness would go away, and back to the black screen after the startup video.....and then 5 minutes later, it came up.
    Not sure what is going on...but did have the blinking orange light for a while during the issue.
    Don't think its an age thing as it did this even when i first purchased it....
    Once into a video or music it runs fine (though i did notice that every once in a while with the music playing from my itunes, it would have a second of silence mid song like it paused for a second, and then would resume as if nothing happened.....
    Any ideas whats shaking with this?  Does this sound similar to your issue or am i in a different ball park.

    Did anything happen to prior to your phone acting this way? It sounds like your screen is dead, but it is hard to say without knowing what what the cause.
    1) was this a gradual problem? Did the phone screen start dimming a couple months ago and now has degraded or after some event (known or unknown to you), the phone started behaving this way.
    2) Can you give more specifics on the problem? You said you have a black screen, but also you can see what you're doing on screen. Is the screen just really dim? Is the screen completely black? Does anything else besides attempting to reset the device cause it to flash white?

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - 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.
