HT4061 my ipad locked up and now it won't turn on

My Ipad locked up on me and now it won't even turn on

I've heard a lot of different theories on how to revive water-damaged iPods. You should search the forums--you will most likely get hundreds of similar posts. Methods I can think of off of the top of my head are:
1. Put in a warm bowl of rice in a warm spot
2. Put on a sunny windowsill for several hours
3. (probably don't try unless you're totally desperate) put in a warm oven on a towel with the door open for a very short time
These are only a few options... if you use the search option you will find many, many more.

I was working on my iPad 1 and it turned off and now it won't turn back on. It was 50% charged and even when I connect it to be charged it still won't turn on. Is there a reset button?

I was working on my iPad and it turned off suddenly and now it won't turn back on. It was at least 50% charged and when I tried to connect the charger it still will not come on. Is there a reset button?

Thank you so much! It worked, I was reading around and saw this has happened to a number of iPad users. Thank you for your prompt response, I was so worried I broke it or something.

Try this.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

I dropped my iphone (not from a great height) and now it won't turn on however when I plug it in the white apple shows on my screen. My lock button has been broken for awhile so I can't even try switch it on!

What can I do? I dropped my iphone (not from a great height) and now it won't turn on however when I plug it in the white apple shows on my screen. My lock button has been broken for awhile so I can't even try switch it on!

Once you have a proven, working Charger... Charge the Device for a couple of hours. Then try to turn it on.
If no joy...
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...
If the issue persists...
Then a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is the Next Step...
Be sure to make an appointment first...

HT4061 We just updated our mom's iPhone 4, and now it won't turn on. When it does, it says "iTunes" and wants me to connect to it. Nothing I do makes it go away, and I can't get it to turn on. Help!

I just updated my mom's Iphone 4, and now it won't turn on. When it does, there is a "itunes" icon, with the cord picture, which is asking me to connect to Itunes, I believe. Can't get past this screen to even turn it on. What do I do without having to restore her entire phone, which I have no idea how to do that?

You need to restore using the recovery mode described in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212 and may need to do that more than once to succeed.

I turned my iMessages off and now it won't turn back on and asks for mobile data or wifi to be on but my mobile data works fine! How do I get iMessages to turn on again?

I Turned my iMessages off and now it won't turn on again without saying that wifi or mobile data must be turned on, however my mobile data works fine. How do I get iMessages to turn on again?

I had a similar issue with my phone.....it just shut off and wouldn't come back on even thought it was charged. My daughter toggled the mute switch several times and then she pressed and held down the home and lock buttons. It worked......would be worth a shot.

HT201412 My iphone 3GS automatically turned off and now, it won't turn on.

My iphone 3GS automatically turned off and now, it won't turn on. My lock button is not working. What do I do? HELP!!!!! :(((

I had it checked a while ago. They said, my battery's dead so they changed it. Now, while I was using my phone, it turned black but it still vibrates and it has a little light (but still black). Please help me.

I haven't used my iPod touch 4g in a while and now it won't turn on or connect to my computer to charge.

I haven't used my iPod touch 4g in a while and now it won't turn on or connect to my computer to charge. holding power+home isn't working either. i've had it plugged in for a while, but i'm pretty sure that's pointless if it won't even connect....help?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

IPod touch 3rd generation crashed while updating, and now it won't turn on, and it wont charge or be recognized in iTunes; it's been like this for 3 days now. Please help,..Thanks!

iPod touch 3rd generation crashed while updating, and now it won't turn on, and it won't charge or be recognized in iTunes because it's completely dead; it's been dead for 3 days now. I've tried pressing home/sleep buttons for reset but nothing works, I've tried using different usb ports to charge it, but nothing seems to work. Please help asap. ...Thanks!(:

After charging the iPod for half an hour, see if placing the iPod in recovery mode will allow iTunes to see the iPod so you can restore the iPod. For recovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

Just bought a new iphone4 and was loading os6 and now it won't turn on. the apple glows like it is starting up, then the screen goes black and then repeats the same process over and over. i have tried to reboot multiple times now

I am assuming the phone was working prior to you installing IOS 6? Did you use itunes to install IOS 6 or just run from the phone?
When I tried to do the Over The Air update to IOS6 on my iPhone 4, it errored out and I had to connect it to iTunes and select "Restore" from the summary screen after iTunes finds the phone is connected. If this works for you, it will go through a couple of reboots that take a few minutes to complete. It should then give you the option to start with a fresh new phone or to use one of your previous backups to load your contacts and other information, provided you have backed up the phone previously.
I hope this helps you my friend!

I cracked my iphone 4s screen and now it won't turn on

So I dropped my iphone 4s and cracked it and then I picked it up and now it won't turn on. I've tried plugging it into my wall, computer, etc. I don't know what to do, so what should I do? also will i be able to access my photos again because my photos aren't backed up or anything? also i would like to access my notes again? I'm so confused and don'please help!

Sounds to me like your phone is broken as well. Without a backup you've likely lost your data. You could try taking it into an Apple store or contact them and see if they have any way recovering your data. Likely not but worth a try.

I updated to iOS 8 on my iPhone 5c and now it won't turn on and I know it was fully charged any ideas?

Have updated my iPhone 5c to iOS 8 and restored it and now it won't turn on. I have tried plugging it in even though I know it was fully charged, I have shut down my rebooted my computer and iTunes from scratch and reconnected my phone and still nothing, any ideas?

Hello Nikmuz,
It sounds like your screen is either black so it looks like it is not on, or it is just plain not turning on at all and it is also not being recognized in iTunes. I would recommend the followng troubleshooting from this article to help you determine whether that is the case or not, named:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
Toggle the ringer switch to see if the unit vibrates. If it does, it could be that iPhone is getting power, but is not displaying any image.
While connected to the iPhone charger, try to reset the iPhone.
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
Contact Apple Support.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

I dropped my iPhone 4S, and now it won't turn on...

I just got it, and I dropped it, and now it won't turn on. I usually always have cases on my phones, but I'm waiting for it to come in the mail. And just my luck, I dropped it.
I tried plugging it in to my computer, and it just makes the sync noise repeatedly. But won't turn on. Is this fixable? I really can't afford to buy a new one at $600. this close to Christmas. Please help me!

Hmm. That helps. But I just got it through my service provider, so its only a week old. Lets hope its less then the $200!
Thanks!
