found olf iphone 4 or 4s in the back of my parents closet. They told me I could now have it back and its been a year since the last time I saw it. It wont turn on unless it is plugged up to a wall plug in. But as soon as I turn it on it says activation required then it says plug into itunes. After I try doing that it plugs into my computer but flashes the apple logo on and off. It wont even turn on all the way when plugged into computer...only the wall. ANY IDEAS?): and no I didnt steal/find this phone. It is mine. I dont have the guts to steal but a lot of people online have accused me.
You may need to force it into recovery mode. See here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/17766427#17766427

HT1414 My phone got submerged in water. Only the Apple logo shows up, off and on
My phone was submereged while running through a water obstacle. I did realize I was going to have to crawl through water. After that phone stopped working. What can I do?
Attempting to turn electronincs on after they have been wet is a very bad idea.
It may be possible to salvage the device.
Do not attempt to power it on, do not attempt to charge the device.
Try placing it in a bag of uncooked rice or silica gel for a minimum of 72hrs.
After this process, then attempt to power the device on.
If it will not power on, charge, or operate correctly, the device is beyond hope. -
HT204053 I have an apple ID that I want to use it for icloud, but when I Set it, i got below message
I have an apple ID that I want to use it for icloud, but when I Set it, i got below message
I could requires an apple id that Is an email address ( [email protected] address )
Please help me
<Email Edited by Host>Your gmail address is still your apple id. Just when you activate your mail and notes, it asks you to create icloud e-mail, which is completely separate and allows you to have one more e-mail address. Just some extra benefit, you don't have to pay for, but useful to save your notes and send e-mail or two if Google server goes down.

So I charged my phone yesterday but it didn't seem to get charged because the battery percentage went lower instead of higher after I plugged out my phone. Then the battery percentage subsequently got lower even faster, jumping from 28% to 15% within ~a minute. It was very hot too, so maybe overheating was the problem. Then I tried charging my phone again after leaving it to cool but it won't charge and keeps flashing the Apple logo.
I've tried to no use:
1. pressing the Power button and Home button together for a long time
2. restoring my device (on iTunes it says that my phone's updated, but it still won't turn on)
Should I just send my phone to Apple for them to fix it or for a replacement?I'm sorry, it seems that the problem is that my phone WON'T restore. I just tried restoring again and it keeps giving me the 2001 error. Help.

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 is flashing the apple logo and won't switch on or off
Hey I have just updated my iPhone 4 and it is flashing the apple logo, I don't own a mac only an iPad is there any way of resolving this? I have plugged it in to a power source to see if that will fix it and nothing works !
Also the round button is broken on the phone so this won't allow me to reset it :(Sorry, but connecting in recovery mode would be the only option before getting it serviced by Apple or visiting an Authorized Apple Service Provider:
iOS: Unable to update or restore

hi i am having difficulty with my iphone 4s it has been on charge for a number of hours but is just flashing the apple logo continuously i have tried to reset but nothing seems to work can anyone help me please
What is a hard reset? There is nothing in any of Apple's documentation that refers to a hard reset.
There's a reset, a restart, and a restore.
Please explain EXACTLY what you did. -
Hello, I can't turn my iphone 4s on, it just broke down and now there's just the black screen with the apple logo on it. So I connected it to itunes and tried to restore it, but than always the errors 1603 & 1611 appeared! please help me!!
You may have a faulty USB cable. Try another.
Make sure you are following the instructions in this procedure to the letter. Here they are, with emphasis on some easily overlooked requirements:
Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release only the Sleep/Wake button.
Continue pressing and holding the Home button while you reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.Note: If you see the "low battery" screen, let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then start with step 2 again.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears (iTunes icon and USB connector) release the Home button.
If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the "recovery mode" alert ("iTunes has detected a phone in recovery mode").
Use iTunes to restore the iPhone.
If you do not see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Select the device in iTunes and choose "restore from backup".
If you still can't get it to work, you have done all you can and only Apple will be able to help. -

I'm not sure if it charged when I hooked it up to my roommate's computer, but it definately didn't register either. If I put it on the dock it plays so the port is fine, but that still doesn't help me sync it to my computer. -
IPad 3rd Generation just started flashing the Apple logo
Searching the net for this issue, I find several discussions that recommend to put the device in recovery mode. The steps to put it in recovery mode are to turn it off. The standard way with the red slider does not work. Using both buttons to turn it off appears to work. The screen goes black.
The next step says to connect the USB cable to the computer but not the iPad. My computer is a Macbook Pro.
Next, I am to hold the home button, and while holding it, plug in the other end of the USB cable. Keep holding it until the iTunes sync screen displays.
When I follow this procedure, what happens is that the iPad reverts to flashing the Apple logo.
So what was I doing when the problem first occurred? Well, first I was trying to figure out how to get iTunes University content from my iPad onto my computer. Nothing I tried seemed to work. Yes, my computer is authorized. Yes I selected the transfer purchased content.
After none of those steps seemed to work, I decided to first make a backup. Good thing I did, considering my current predicament. Next, I enabled syncing of iTunes University. This warned me that stuff would be deleted from the iPad. OK. I expected that. That's why I made the backup.
I really don't know what the result of that was because I went off and did something else while the sync was taking place.
Meanwhile, since my iTunes University stuff was going to disappear, I looked into how to download it into iTunes on the computer. It took a while to figure out, but I think I figured it out properly. Anyway, while content was being downloaded into iTunes on the computer, that's when I noticed the logo flashing.
Is it possible that downloading content into iTunes on the computer could have been interfering with syncing the iPad and that's what caused the problem? Anyway, what do I do now?Update on this issue - I got the phone to restart by forcing a restore with Itunes. seems to be limping along again.
