  • Ipod touch has stopped working. the screen showes that it need to connect to power.

    ipod touch has stopped working. the screen showes that it need to connect to power.

    Hey there our3goldens,
    It sounds like you are unable to successfully boot your iPod Touch. I would recommend these steps specifically from the following article, named:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3281
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
    Let it charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
    If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
    If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged. Learn more about charging iPhone and iPod touch, or iPad.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
    Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more aboutrestoring iOS software.
    If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • My iPhone suddenly stopped working

    hello!
    my iPhone suddenly stopped working and its says that the owner tried to use "find my iPhone" and I'm the owner and i didn't!
    so its asked me to put the password but i forget it and i forget my answer to the security questions as well,
    so what can i do with it?
    thank you

    Reset you phone: hold the on/off and home buttons until you see the Apple logo (ignore the off slider that appears first), then release.  You won't lose any data doing this.  No one can know if you will have a recurring problem with this or not.  If you do, post again and we'll try to help you.

    I have a problem with my iPhone 5 stopped working the sleep / power and simultaneously refused to obey the HOME button. I can not use either one or the other. I can not enable or disable the device, display lights up when you plug the charger. same display works fine as it is surprising. or maybe someone knows what is the reason for this? is there any way to solve this problem?

    More than likely its a hardware issue, I have never encountered such a problem and best bet is to just go get it replaced. If you have insurance on your device apple will replace it as long as there was no water damage, if you dont have insurance they will charge $200 more or less. Hope you get it fixed

    My New iPod nano 6g, just stop working the screen is freezd in the menu? Pleace HELP!!!

    try resetting. Hold down volume down and sleep/wake button until you see apple logo.
    If that does not work, connect it to itunes, then restore.
    If none of that helps, you may need to contact apple. Has it gotten wet?

  • HT1369 my iphone suddenly stop working

    why my iphone 4 stop working

    Hello Shafia,
    What do you mean by iphone 4 stop working ?
    Is your iPhone screen completely blank (Black screen)?
    Or you can see your iPhone Home screen but, you are not able to do anything ?
    Try with a Hard Reset and see if it works.
    First Make sure the Battery of your iPhone is Charged and then press and Hold the On/Off switch (On top left hand side of your iPhone) and the Home Button (Button at the bottom of your iPhone screen). Hold both the keys simultaneously for atleast 10 to 15 seconds and you should see an Apple Logo coming up on your screen, once you see the Apple logo you can then release oth On/Off switch and Home button and wait for your iPhone's Home screen.
    See if this works or please let us know more what issue you are facing and since when and also let us know that have you made any changes since the problem occured.

  • My Ipod just stopped working, the screen got black and now I can't open it. I have tried to charge it but it doens't work.

    My Ipod touch 5 just stopped working. The screen got black and now I can't use it or start it.
    I have tried to charge it but it doens't start and when I tried to connect it with my computer it didn't work either.
    I saw that you could hold down the "home" button and the "power" button at the same time but my home button doens't work so I can't do that.
    Is there any other way I can fix it or do I have to go to an apple store? 

    Try:
    Turn on without Home/Power Button

  • Why has my iPhone suddenly stopped working?

    I was in the middle of reading a text this morning when my iPhone suddenly turned off. Now, the screen is black and my computer won't even recognize it when it's plugged in. The battery should not be dead because it was charged over night and it does not turn on even after being plugged in for awhile. I didn't drop it or spill anything on it before it broke, the screen just suddenly went black. Has this happened to anyone else. Any suggestions on what to do?? Also, I haven't updated my iPhone  to iOS 5 yet if that's relevant.

    Contact 3 asap you may have been frozen because of inadvertant excessive
    data use or more.
    All you can eat does NOT apply overseas
    AND if you did not enable roaming they will certainly believe your iPhone has been stolen
    and taken out of the country

  • My ipod randomly stopped working, the screen is black regardless of what buttons I push

    The screen is black and my ipod wont turn back on. Any suggestions? It was working fine a minute ago.

    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 another cable              
    - 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.

  • I have an iPod Touch on iOS 5.1.1 - the screen showed 'Activated Required' and was unresponsive. I plugged it in and restored it to factory settings, but the screen is still unresponsive. Says 'slide to set up' but I can't slide! Any help?

    iPod first stopped updating/downloading apps, then shut down completely. Finally got around to plugging it into our home Mac and restoring it, which all seemed to go fine. However the screen is still unresponsive, I have tried turning it off and on again etc.

    Thank you for the speedy reply! I suspected it to be a hardware fault but found a lot of people online had experienced the same problem. What should I do? Obviously it is well out of warranty and the battery is literally brand new. Seems a sad waste if it cannot be repaired. I've yet to find a definitive answer or what to do, be it contact Apple etc....
    Again, many thanks for taking the time to help. :-)

  • My iphone 4 suddenly stopped working? screen went black and wont turn back on or reboot...?

    My iphone 4, 8G white suddenly died after leaving in on the counter...  I  tried turning it back on by holding the lock button but, nothing happened.  i tried hold the home button and lock button but, still nothing happens..  Can you please tell me what else i could possibly do to get my phone back on or getting a phone that works?
    Thank you,
    Travis

    Your phone may be out of battery or may have shut down due to overheating.
    Try plugging it into its charger. If an empty battery with a charging symbol appears, you're good. Just let it charge for a few minutes.
    If you were using your phone excessively and it is extremely hot, wait until it cools down then turn it on again.
