HT201401 My iPhone 4 vibrated for about a minutes and is now unresponsive with a black screen. I don't know if it's on or off. What do I do?

This morning I used my iPhone very well, received and made a few calls. I placed my phone on the bed and started to use my iPad. I then heard the phone vibrating and the phone screen was black. I tried pressing the home button but that didn't stop it. I tried to turn off the phone but that didn't stop it. It vibrated for about a minute non-stop. When it finally stopped, my phone looked as if it was turned off...black screen and not responding to anything. I tried to turn it on but nothing. The battery was fully charged last night to that is not the issue. What do I do? Please help me.

No problem just happy you got it working again
Happy Days

My iPhone vibrated for 3 minutes and died. The screen was black but the phone was still vibrating. I searched what to do but everything said to reset it. But one day my power button got stiff and doesn't work. I tried to plug it into iTunes but it was not recognized. What am I supposed to do?

let it charge for 60 minutes, see if it awakes.
Plug it to itunes , awake or not and hold both buttons for a couple of seconds

My iphone 4 screen went black, then there was an audible crackling/static sound for about 5 minutes and now it will not turn on. Does this mean my iphone is dead??

My iphone was playing music when the screen suddenly went black, then there was an audible crackling/static sound for about 5 minutes and now it won't turn on. Can anyone tell me what has happened? Is this the end of my iphone?

Plug it into a power source for at least 30 minutes, then try resetting it: Press the Sleep/Wake button & Home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release.

My ipad is unresponsive. The screen is black and I have followed the instructions to turn the iPad on. I charged it for about 20 minutes and tried again, following the same instructions and there was still no response. How do I get my ipad to turn on?

I have purchased two audiobooks from iTunes. They play perfectly for about 13 minutes and then abruptly stop. I have purchased other audiobooks and have not had a problem. Please, any ideas on why this is happening and what can I do to fix it. Thanks!

As long as you use your computer like King Penguin stated for Report a Problem, you should be fine. If you can't get to your computer, are not using your computer, or your computer is not longer in the mix since you have been using your iPad, email iTunes support about the problem.

If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes) in the search box. Note the timestamps of those log messages, which refer to the times when the system was booted. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the last boot time when you had the problem. Select the messages logged after the boot, during the time something abnormal was happening. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
For example, if the problem is a slow startup taking three minutes, post the messages timestamped within three minutes after the boot time, not before. Please include the BOOT_TIME message at the beginning of the log extract.
If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
Still in Console, look under System Diagnostic Reports for crash or panic logs, and post the entire contents of the most recent one, if any. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

I have MacBook Pro and whenever I start Aperature 3 it stays on for about 5 minutes then it shuts down with an error of shutting down unexpected... anything??

Hello, I have MacBook Pro and whenever I start Aperature 3 it stays on for about 5 minutes then it shuts down with an error of shutting down unexpected... anything??
Also does anyone know how to take something from one picture and add it to another in aperature?
Thank you!!!

I had the exact same problem. Here is what an Apple Support person told me to do - and it worked like a charm!
Go to your APPLICATIONS Folder. Find a folder within that folder called TOOLBARS. Remove the ENTIRE folder. Once you remove that folder, your Aperture should work perfectly.
There is something in that folder that you don't need that messes with Aperture. Try it. Mine worked perfectly!

They need to turn off iMessage, power the phone off/on, then activate iMessage again with their SIM.

When I use Firefox and Hotmail at startup, Firefox freezes for about 1 minute, and then I can continue. First I though it was my computer but 2 other girls in my class have the same problem with Hotmail and Firefox. What can I do to change this?

When I start Firefox, about 15 seconds after I start it, my Firefox freezes for about 1 minute. I found out that it is my Hotmail that makes Firefox freeze.
First I thought it was my computer, but I have 2 other girls in my class that use Hotmail and Firefox and their computer also freezes for 1 full minute.
This is very annoying, what can I do to change this?

p.s. I am from the Netherlands, maybe that has something to do with it?

New ipad (4days) stuck in start, works for about a minute and then shuts down and restarts (loop)

New Ipad setup and worked fine for 4 days. 5th day it started OK and worked for about a minute. screen did a fade out and it restarted. It is stuck in this loop. I have tried reset, and then restore. It is still stuck in loop. After it up graded to newes version of iOS 5, it did a restore. I need to configure it like new set up, but it is still stuck in the restart loop so I can not complete. Battery shows 100% ( now down to about 96%). I am assuming this is a hardware not a software issue. Any suggestions?

Hi there,
If you have already tried restoring your device and have set it up as a new device (not from backup), then I suggest booking a Genius appointment, as yes, this may be a hardware issue.
If you let me know your name, nearest Apple Store, a date and time, and an email address, I can book an appointment for you, or you can use the link below.

Sorry about the trouble you've been though, I hope it can be solved shortly.

I just purchased 2 ipod touch for my kidz. and registered them both with my email. I didn't know every text message I receive, they too would get on their IPod Touch. HOw do I change this? And do I need to contact a Representative to add them

i just purchased 2 ipod touch for my kidz (9 & 10 yr. old) . and registered them both with my email. I didn't know every text message I receive, they too would get on their IPod Touch. HOw do I change this? And do I need to contact a Representative to add their own emails....?

Can you connect to a wifi source on the device? Enable wifi in settings on the device itself. If you don't have wifi at home, there may be a local hotspot you can use for this.
The reason this happens is carriers don't want people downloading huge files that would slow their network as well as eat up your data plan.

I have just received an iphone 4 from a friend and it is in software version 4.3.2 still and will not update to latest version. It updates for about 3o minutes and then an error reading that my interent connection timed out? Any suggestions?

I have an Iphone 4 from a friend. It was never updated with him and now I am trying update to latest software version. It is currently in 4.3.2 and it updates till the last few seconds and then a message, with no error number, states that the internet connection had time out during update. I am using my PC and have tried unsuccessfully for a week. I have tried to restore setting on phone first before plugging in to PC and updating software through Itunes? I took it to my mobile phone outlet and they couldn't help? Is there another way?
