HT4061 my iphone will not turn on it blacked out and will not turn back on

my iphone will not turn on what so ever

Is it still charging? Did you try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again? You will not lose data by resetting.
If this does not work,try to connect in recovery mode, explained in this article:
iOS: Unable to update or restore

TS3992 what does it mean that my iphone will no longer back up to my computer automatically when i sync with itunes?

What does it mean that "my iphone will no longer back up to my computer automatically when I sync with itunes", if I turn my icloud backup to "on"? This doesnt sound like something that will make things smoother? I just recently lost all my calendar events and I am hoping to recover them.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can either back up to iTunes or to iCloud, you you choose to back up to iCloud, back up to iTunes will be turned off. Personally, I'd always back up to iTunes unless there is a good reason not to you.

I recently got the new iPhone 5c I used icloud to back everything up from my 4s to my new 5c. Now, I keep getting a pop up that says Continue Restoring? (This iPhone has not been backed uprecently because it has not finished being restored. Would you like to finish downloading any remaining purchases and media before backing up, or delete them along with any app date?)
I seleted to finish downloading because I didn't want to lose anything. It still will not finish downloading and I have tried this several times.
What do I need to do to that I can get my iphone to back up and so that I can install the new iOS?

Hello there, Brandifoote24.
The following Knowledge Base article offers up an explanation of what you're error signifies:
iCloud: Understanding Backup alert messages
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4576
"This iPhone has not been backed up recently because it has not finished being restored. Would you like to finish downloading any remaining purchases and media before backing up, or delete them along with any app data?"
This message is displayed if your iOS device has been trying to complete a restore for more than three days. This can occur if your restore has been interrupted due to network connectivity issues or some other problem occurs.
Being that this is the case, you would want to go back to the article it seems you were referred to us from and try to restore from your icloud backup again:
iCloud: Troubleshooting restoring an iCloud backup
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4036
How do I restore an iCloud backup if my device is already set up for use?
You'll need to erase all data and settings from your device, so first confirm that you have an iCloud backup to restore:
Go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage, then tap the name of your device to view a list of iCloud backups.
Check the date of the backup you want to restore, because you'll be restoring only what iCloud backed up on that date.
After confirming that an iCloud backup is available, follow these steps:
Connect your device to a power source and make sure that it is connected to the Internet via Wi-Fi.
Follow the instructions for restoring your iOS device from an iCloud backup, which include making sure that your device is using the latest version of iOS.
If the issue persists, then I would troubleshoot Wi-Fi using the following article:

Dear Sirs,when i use the computer updating my iphone to ios 7.1,suddenly black out.The computer has no power and my iphone does not work and keep display the screen saying the iphone need to connect to itunes. So when i connect my iphone to iTunes, the computer says"itunes has detected an iphone in recovery mode. you must restore this iphone before it can be used with itunes"
So my question is if I click OK(restore the iphone),will i lose all my data and whatsapp??
Thank you for your help and time.
Regards,

If you didn't back up the phone to iCloud or iTunes (on your computer) BEFORE attempting the update, the data will be lost.

My iPhone 4S keeps turning back on if it isn't plugged into a charger?

I bought my iPhone 4S recently. When I try to turn off my iPhone it keeps turning back on. The only times it stays turned off is when I have it plugged into a charger. I have tried holding the sleep/wake button and sliding the shut off tab and also holding the home button & sleep/wake button at the same time while unplugged from the charger; on both occasions it has turned back on without me doing anything. I would just like to know what is happening and also if they're is a solution for it.

Hi, I have the same problem. I tried to call them but they tried to make me pay $99 only to talk to them, so I dicided not to talk to them. Btw, did you get the solution for that? Thanks

Reset iphone won't turn back on

reset iphone won't turn back on

Your post is extremely vague and several months old but hopefully this info can help others seeking a solution. I too had a problem with my iPhone (3gs in my case) not coming back up.
What happened -- I was using it normally and it rebooted and was stuck on the apple for a long time and wouldn't ever get past it. So I tried to reboot it by pressing power + home but it would just reset and never power off, and get stuck every time.
What I did to fix it -- I actually had to just remove the SIM card then reboot the phone. After it came back up I put the SIM card back in. It froze up for a short time after that as the service reactivated. But then it is back to normal now finally. Whew!

HT5622 My IPhone will no longer back up to my computer automatically when I sync with iTunes- why???

My iPhone will no longer back up to my computer automaticall when I sync with iTunes- why

Probably because you have elected to automatically back up to iCloud instead. You can still manually back up by clicking Back Up Now on the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings, it just won't be automatic.

I can not get to iPhone screen, so no way to get to Settings. That is the problem. When I connect phone to iTunes I get screen asking to insert SIN card. On the phone I'm getting Cinfigure screen asking Launguage , Country or Region, Wi-Fi, ( I can connect to my home wi-fi), and last screen "Activating your iPhone". After two minutes of waiting IM getting message: Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server in temporary unavailable. try connecting to iTunes or try later or contat apple.com/support.
Like I mention, I went to Bell as well Rogers store and tried to insert active SIM card with no results.
Yes, my friend unlock the phone to use with Rogers but I don't know where

If you are running Tiger, you don't have time machine.
You need to get something like SuperDuper! or Carbon Copy Cloner (sorry, I don't have a handy link for CCC but you can Google it to get their site) to make a clone of your drive on the external and then do incremental backups. The free versions do a lot and you can upgrade to the full-service versions for small change if you need more. The one time I used SuperDuper! for cloning a volume it worked just fine.
(My backup application is the last PPC capable version of Retrospect, which does a credible job, or has over the past ten-twelve years.)

MMy new iPhone 5 just blacked out and won't come on. Does anyone know if I will have an issue getting a new phone from Verizon.? I can't even call because I don't have a phone!

Ebony,
Let's see if we can't get this phone working for you! What exactly is happening with the device? Is the screen just out and you can hear that it will still ring, or is the phone completely dead? Please elaborate more on what you are experiencing.

My Macbook "blacks out" and then turns back on?

There are times when my MacBook will "turn off" or "black out" and then after a few seconds, it would just turn on again with all the applications I was opening opened up already. Please help? This has happened 3 times now. :/

Looks like you have a 2010 Macbook. Are you running 10..6 Snow Leopard? Things to check. Go to system preferences/energy saver/ schedule and make sure nothing is checked. Also uncheck put hard drive to sleep. Do a pram reset/Command/Option?P/R and hold power button down for three chimes. You could also reset SMC. Hold down the Command?Option?Shift while holding down the power button for about 10 second. You should be able to access the apple hardware test by starting up and holding down the D or Option D on startup. Run the test. If not and you have the install disks you can run it from there by inserting it and doing the same thing. Use disk utilities in the utilities folder to repair disk permissions and verify your hard drive. If it needs repair ,you'll need to use the install disk to do it under utilities at the top of the screen. If you have a newer operating system ,Then the only way to do this is through the restore partition by starting up and holding down the option or option r.You could look in your library system fold logs and see if you see anything under crach report that says thermal. Let me know.

My ipod screen blacked out and wont let me see anything but it will play music

my ipod screen blacked out and wont let me see anything but it will play music. how can i fix it or cani get a new one?

- A reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod
If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
If not under warranty, Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price:
Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
A third-party place might be less expensive. Here is one. Google for more.

I have updated my iphone 3gs to ios 5 from 4.1 and it has locked back to the original sim card in america as i live in ireland is there any way i can unlock ios 5 or delete it off my iphone and go back to 4.1 ?

It sounds like you have a hacked/unofficially unlocked iphone. When you update, it will indeed lock it back, as it should.
The ONLY place that can legitimately unlock an iphone is the carrier to which they are locked and no U.S. carrier does this.

Graphical errors. The Address dropdown box is blacked out, and goes normal when highlighted, tabs are blacked out, buttons are half missing etc etc. This ONLY happens in firefox, reinstalled and turn all add-ons off and it persists.
