HT4061 My screen has frozen on the lock screen

I have tried re-setting my phone. I can do this but afterwards, the screen is still locked. I need help please as my phone is unusable at the moment

Press and hold the home and power buttons until the white Apple logo appears.
If the problem continues, restore the device, first from backup then as new until the problem is resolved.
If this does not resolve, take the device to Apple for evaluation.

  • My sons ipad2 has just frozen on the lock screen.

    Please help! My sons ipad2 has kind of frozen on the lock screen. If I press the slide to unlock a white box appears around it and a voice says unlock but nothing happens. Also if I press the time it will say the time and show the white box but again nothing happens. I have tried to reset it multiple time with no joy.
    I have also connected it to iTunes to restore it but it say that I have to turn off the find my ipad app, which of course I can't as I can't get past the lock screen and I have also tried to update it, however as my son has only a limited amount of space it won't let me do that either. I hope someone can help and thank you in advance for trying.

    Hi Scarecrow1400, thank you for trying to help this evening. I eventually came across an article about ipad recovery mode and on the second attempt was able to restore the ipad to factory settings which obviously bypasses the 'where my ipad' feature. So, for now it's fixed :-) thanks again and I hope you have a great new year.

  • HT1212 my iphone is frozen on the lock screen and will not let me enter my passcode, I have held the home button and power button for up to 1 minute and plugged it up to itunes because its locked it wont work? i need help

    i have connected it to itunes like i was told to do and it wont do anything because its locked with a passcode and its frozen on the lock screen and will not let me enter myt passcode and after a while it just shuts off, it has been doing this for almost 48 hours. I was told to hold the home button and power button to shut it down and that I could then restart it and it would work... Nothing has helped, What can I try???

    Reset the device by pressing and holding the home and power buttons for 15-20 seconds until the white Apple logo appears.
    If that does not resolve, restore the device via iTunes on the computer.
    If all else fails, take the device to Apple (or whomever provides support in your country) for evaluation and possible replacement.

    If you are having the same issue on several computers then it is a hardware issue! Not a software issue! Replacement is the only resolution!

  • My iphone 5c is frozen on the lock screen with a text message, I can't swipe it to unlock it. What do I do?

    My iPhone 5c is frozen on the lock screen with a text message on it. When I try and swipe the screen it sticks about halfway through the swipe. What do I do?

    A reset may help. Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off buttons for approximately 15-20 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears, release both buttons.

  • My iphone 4 is enlarged and frozen on the lock screen...what can I do?

    My iphone 4 is enlarged and frozen on the lock screen...It will not let me do anything! Please help!!

    You have Zoom on... double tap with three fingers to turn it off.   Go into Settings > General > Accessibility to disable it.
    If that doesn't work...
    Try a Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the slider.  Slide to power off.  Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the Apple logo.
    Try a Reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider if, it comes up. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

  • My iPhone is frozen at the lock screen and will not unlock

         For the past few months my iPhone 4S has been not acting good since I updated it to iOS 7. At random times it will go to a black screen and not respond for certain amount for time. Well today my iPhone went to that black screen and would not respond. Once I had someone call my phone the black screen went away and started acting normal as usual. Then once I tried to slide and unlock my phone it would not respond, When I tried to connect it to iTunes it connects and backs up but it will not restore. It had be stuck on the lock screen for almost 3 hours. battery life shows 100%. It shows the time as 8:38 because that is the time it stopped responding. The slide to unlock is still glowing but I can not slide to unlock my phone.
         I have no clue on what is going or how to fix the problem. Could someone  please help.

  • My IPhone is frozen on the lock screen, and will not restart or respond to ITunes. What do I do?

    I really need help. It's not functioning at all. It's frozen on the home screen, will not respond to Itunes, or its charger, it wont turn off, no matter how many times you hold down the Lock button. What do I do?

    Try a reset: Hold the home and power buttons at the same time until the Apple boot logo appears. No data will be lost.

  • IPhone 6's frozen on the lock screen

    Trying to delete the emails on the lock screen.  When I used Touch ID to complete this action, my iphone 6 was frozen after three times attempts.  I knew that I'd need to key in the password after five attempts for unlocked the Phone.  But to this deleted emails action on the lock screen, it's only allowed three attemps then two more attempts will unlock the phone instead. This problem is occurred after the latest update. Just wondering any other users may have the same issue.

    Reset, hold both the home and power buttons for about 10 seconds until the iPhone restarts itself. Then delete all the running apps from background memory. If still problem, consider Restoring iPhone with iTunes on computer.
