Jahnavi,
two things to be looked upon in this case. First thing is about the battery. Once the battery has enough charge in it we can try a force restore on the phone to re-install the iOS.
> Try a hard reset of the phone (Press and hold the HOME button and the Sleep/Wake button until the phone restarts and comes up with Apple logo). After trying this step, try charging the phone and see if the battery holds the charge.
> Once battery has enough charge in it then we can force it to DFO mode and perform restore. For restore refer to this link.

    Is the device officially unlocked from the carrier? Was it purchased unlocked?
    If not... it cannot be used with any other carriers SIM until it is unlocked.
    Not all carriers offer unlocking.

  • Hi! I purchased my ATV in Miami, but I live in Argentina. I have not been able to get the device running on any TVs. When I plug it in, it briefly shows the apple logo, then a sign saying no signal, check power cords and power source or sthg like that.

    Hi!
    I purchased my AppleTV in Miami, but I live in Argentina.
    I have not been able to get my device running correctly, and altough I've read tons of things online, I still have no solution to my problem.
    Here's the thing: after everything's plugged in and ON, I see the Apple logo briefly, then the TV displays a sign that says no signal, check pwoer cords and power source.
    But everything is plugged in and connected properly, otherwise, I doubt I'd be seeing the apple logo, right?
    I tried changing the HDMI cable, reversing the ends, switching ports, hard resetting the ATV, and trying a different TV. No luck.
    I read there is some issue with Samsung TVs, and most LED and LCD tvs down here are Samsung.
    On the other hand, I cannot return it or exchange it, since I bought it in the states.
    Oh! One of the tvs I tried it on displays a little sign that reads "connected at 1280x720 @60hz", and only THEN, goes to the "no signal" sign.
    Please!!! I am being driven up the walls here.... HELP!!

    Try this:
    Change the Apple TV resolution:
    Press and hold the Menu and Up button on your Apple Remote for six seconds.
    The Apple TV will automatically cycle to the next resolution at approximately 20 second intervals.
    Press Play on the Apple Remote to keep the current resolution or Select to manually cycle to the next resolution.

  • My iphone wont turn on when connected to a laptop or pc,but when its connected to my dock, its shows it need restoration what should i do?

    my iphone wont turn on when connected to a laptop or pc,but when its connected to my charging stereo,its shows i need to conect to itunes but then after 10-15 min. it turns off.

    Hi Monzairita,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your iPhone only powers on when connected to a dock, and shows the "connect to iTunes" screen, start with these troubleshooting steps:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Best Regards,
    Jeremy

  • IPhone 3GS cannot charge and gets stuck at apple logo screen

    Hi, I have an iPhone 3GS, and yesterday it ran out of charge.  I plugged it into my wall socket as normal, but all I got was the black screen with the apple logo, which disappeared after about 15 seconds.  I have tried to hold down the home and on/off key together; to try and restore it, but nothing happened.  I have tried to plug into my computer and open in iTunes, but iTunes does not find it.  The only thing it appears to do when it is plugged into anything, is show the apple logo on the screen and then switch off after about 15 seconds.  Anyone go any suggestions what I might be able to do?  Thank-You (PS I am not technically minded so no techno speak would be appreciated)

    But it was working perfectly well until yesterday.
    Everything works until the day it breaks...  Most electronics that fail don't give any warning.
    I like the 3GS, so would like to be able to repair it, if I can?

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

  • I dont know how to get my iphone 3g to work. it will turn on and show the apple logo then it goes black. itunes will not recognize it and it wont reset

    I've tried charging it for days. it doesnt do anything. I'll hold the home and power button for 10 seconds and it just shows the apple logo and then goes black. and when i plug it into my computer it wont recognize it.

    Does it charge when you connect it to the adapter? If yes, make sure it is charged for about 10min, then connect in recovery mode, shown here: iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to restore
    If still not recognized, try the troubleshooting here: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows

  • HT201412 my ipod touch does not turn on after steps 1-4.  It only shows the apple logo and then turns off

    my ipod touch does not turn on after steps 1-4.  It only shows the apple logo and turns off

    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 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.

  • My iphone will not stop showing the apple logo and rebooting

    How can i get my iphone 5 to stop rebooting and actually show my screen. All it does is show the apple logo and then its goes away and the screen stays on but shows nothing. I can triple click to invert colors but that only makes the black screen white. My lock button does not work either so i cannot hard reset

    It appears you have a hardware failure. Certainly the lock button has failed. Without that button you cannot reset which is the first thing to try in cases like yours. Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.
