HT4972 how to press power button for iphone

I can"t open iphone

Like any other button, you place a finger on it and press.
What does this have to do with "opening" an iPhone?  By that do you mean getting past the lock screen?  Carrier unlocking the device? Or did you possibly mean physically opening the device (i.e. opening the case)?
What does this have to do with iPhones in the Enterprise, the forum to which you posted this cryptic question?

  • "Press power button for five seconds to re-start computer" sign????

    I was using my computer and all of a sudden a black sign poped saying that I had to press the "power button" for five seconds to re-start my computer. I tried to ignore the sign but I couldn't. So I had to press the button. My computer turned off so I waited for a bit to turn it back on like I usually do. When it re-started, I had a new sign saying that my computer was turned off improperly. Is this normal? And why could this have happened?

    Hi and welcome to the forum.
    What you saw was your MacBook having what is termed a Kernel Panic. Information on what a Kernel Panic is can be found here:
    *What's a "kernel panic"? (Mac OS X)*
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106227
    Should you be worried? If it happens often the you should have it looked at. Kernel Panics are often (not always) attributed to memory module faults but anything (hardware and/or software) can cause them.
    If you do not get a Kernel Panic again then I wouldn't worry about it and carry on working as normal.

  • Shutting the Macbook by pressing the power button for long

    how bad is it for your MacBook Pro to shut it down by pressing the power button for a few seconds rather than by choosing Shut down?

    If ever I have to "force" a shutdown in this fashion then I immediately boot up from an external drive or DVd and run either Disk Utility or Disk Warrior to repair the drive's directories, shroudlupe.
    It regularly pops up some kind of error after such events, sometimes quite serious ones. It can also corrupt permissions in some circumstances, too, if software which modifies them "on the run' and then sets them back again happens to be in use at the time, so you should do a permissions repair on the next boot, too. The actual nature of problems generated will depend on what was running at the time, what OS background processes were underway, etc etc. It is not really predictable. Doing it once at the wrong time can have serious consequences, while on other occasions you may come away scot free.
    Although the impact may not be quite so great since "journalling' was introduced on Macs, I suspect that many of the problems that we see when people update their OS's etc, as well other general operating problems, occur because directories etc haven't been repaired by the user after such events at some time in the past.
    At the very least I'd suggest you use a 'Safe Boot" after any such event, and then restart normally. See http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1417 for some alternative approaches to repairing the damage that it is likely to cause.
    Are you having trouble shutting down normally, or are you just looking to save time?
    Cheers

    You need to connect to iTunes and restore.
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    You may need to put the device into recovery mode, this is covered in the link on this page.
    Did you back up the device?

  • 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.

    Hello waseem.abdul_hadi,
    It may be that your Screen Curtain has been activated. This can be deactivated by triple-tapping the screen with three fingers.
    Turn the screen curtain on or off. Triple-tap with three fingers. When the screen curtain is on, the screen contents are active even though the display is turned off.

  • Why Apple doesn't provide options in IOS to power off, reset, standby ipad/iPhone/ipod ? I don't se this opiton in IOS6 as well ? This option will help to avoid pressing power button less number of times and gives better user experience.

    Why Apple doesn't provide options in IOS to power off, reset, standby ipad/iPhone/ipod ? I don't se this opiton in IOS6 as well ? This option will help to avoid pressing power button less number of times and gives better user experience.

    They do.
    Standby = press the Power button
    Power off = Press and hold Power button then slide the red power off slider.
    Reset = Press and hold both Reset adn Home till you see the Apple logo.
    This option will help to avoid pressing power button less number of times and gives better user experience.
    Because it is better to not push the power button and more enjoyable to not push it?

  • My ipad 2 just went off. It was working perfectly while charging. I have pressed the power button for ten seconds and it's still not coming on. What do I do?

    My ipad 2 just went off. It was working perfectly while charging. I have pressed the power button for ten seconds and it's still not coming on. What do I do?

    First, confirm that the iPad is charged and then try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad.  Again, say "yes."
    Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely.  Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

  • I have a ipod nano shuffle, 6th gen.  I bought it when I had Windows Vista.  I upgraded to Windows Ultimate 7.  Now it keeps shutting off.  Have to press power button and touch arrow to restart.  3 to 4 times a song.  I ran diagnostics.  Passed until end.

    Have iPod Nano Shuffle 6th Gen.  I purchased it when I had Windows Vista.  I have since upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate .  Was fine with Vista.  Now, it keeps shutting off during the song, 3 or 4 times.  Have to press power button and then arrow to restart song.  I went to my iTunes and ran diagnostics.  Passed all until the end.  The last test had a red dot failure.  It said no iPod, iPhone, or iPad found.  Does someone know how I can correct the problem?  iTunes is always updating, so I am current.

  • HT5642 my ipod touch 5th gen is not recognized since I tried to update ios. It says it is in recovery mode but it just keeps looping back to recovery mode. I tried holging power button for 3 sec. then both home and power for 10 sec then home button for 20

    My ipod touch 5th generation went into recovery mode when I tried to update ios. When I try to recover it just keeps looping back to recovery mode. I tried to hold the power button for 3 secs. then simultaneously hold the home button for 10 secs. then hold only power button for 20 secs. I tried this several times to no avail. This is my daughter's ipod. I am computer illiterate and I'm not sure what else to try.

    Maybe:
    Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
    Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
    Next try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.

  • Satellite A60 Shuts Down immediately after pressing power button

    My A60 shuts down after 2-3 seconds when I press the power button for openning the laptop. After pressing the power button, all lights come on, but before anything appears on the screen, computer cuts off the power. Fun, DVD and harddisk sound working. At least, sounds are coming from the these hardwares. Also from the buttom of the laptop, I can see the fan is working.
    This problems started nowhere. Yesderday, I closed my laptop properly and carry my laptop to my friends. When I tried to open my laptop, this problem occured and I could not open it yet.
    I tried any combination of using power supply and battery for power. Non of them is working.
    Is there any one had the same problem or have any diagonistics for this problem.
    Thanks,
    Emrah

    @ Etjuh
    Dont think its the same problem!
    Your problem sounds more like overheating and the cooling modules cleaning could helps to prevent the notebook form overheating and from automatically shut downs.
    The vacuum cleaner is a useful tool ;) but be careful if you dont know how to do it please contact an technician!
    PS: Do not post twice next time ;)
