I can't turn my phone on!!!

hi, i have i phone 4s, while i was resetting all the contents and setting through i tunes, it asked me to upgrade to 6, i did... then it shut off saying it couldn't upgrade... now it shows "connect to i tunes picture" on the phone.... It's not recognized by my computer. what should i do? I'm not sure if it was jailbroken, cuz i bought it from a retail store. How can i turn it back on working? Thanks.

No problem! FYI, if it's considered accidental damage or past the warranty time, you're looking at $199 USD. If it's within warranty time and not considered accidental damage by Apple, then it should be free.
Make sure to do a backup to iTunes or iCloud first, though, before you go, and make sure to schedule an appointment online at http://concierge.apple.com/reservation/us/en/techsupport/

Do you have a case on the iPhone? It could be interfering with the button operation.
If that isn't it, you'll have to setup service.

My power button stopped working all of a sudden now I can't turn my phone on or off, what should I do?

While downloading the latest IOS update to my iPhone 4, my phone went into a frozen state with the update 2/3's complete. It's remained like this for the past 12 hours. I can't turn the phone off, and I can't connect it to iTunes. Anyone know what to do?

If the place of purchase does not have a 'Lemon' policy (three replacements = refund or complete exchange), sadly you are out of luck.
And Apple themselves do not have any power over what policy a reseller uses. You can call Apple Care and have them replace it, but the odds are you would probably get a standard replacement again like has previously happened. I'm pretty sure Apple holds their own sort of 'Lemon' polocy where if it's been replaced three times through them they'll swap it out for a brand new phone. Not 100% sure though, best bet is too call them again.
And it ***** getting a response like that from their support personel, but hey, they can't all be that bad can they? I'm sure if you plead your case they'll try and help out. I've dealt with them in the past and had one or two people that rubbed me the wrong way, but most of them have been a great help and kept me a happy customer, haha.

HT204053 i lost my iphone and reset it all through find my iphone and after locating it and getting it back i can not turn the phone back on how can i fix this

i lost my iphone and reset it all through find my iphone and after locating it and getting it back i can not turn the phone back on how can i fix this

Unless you had enabled Find My iPhone on it before it was lost then there isn't any way to locate it (it can only be turned on directly on the phone, it can't be done remotely). If you did enable it then you could try locating it either via http://icloud.com on a computer or Find My iPhone on another device - but that will only work if it's connected to a network and the device hasn't already been wiped and/or Find My iPhone disabled on it.
If you think that it was stolen then you should report it to the police. You should also change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc.

Can not turn I phone 3GS on !!!??

My I Phone 3GS went off.... I thought the battary is dead, so I put it o the charger over night, but still can not turn it on.

FYI - it is impossible to do an iPhone reset with an iPhone that is not powered on. Unless I read what was provided wrong, the iPhone powered off and after being connected to a power source overnight has not powered back on.3
you are right- unless phone went into coma mode
if a reset fixes problem- i would upgrade to 3.1.2

Bring your phone into Apple for replacement.

Battery on iphone 4s keeps dying and now i can't turn my phone off!

Hi, for the past few days i've noticed that the battery life on my iphone 4s has started dying really quickly, within 20 hours. And now when i try to turn my phone off, it automatically switches itself back on! I select "swipe to switch" and then it just reboots itself automatically back on. Can someone tell me why it is doing this, and how i can fix it? thanks very much!

Do a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider if hat appears. If that does not help, take it to an Apple store for testing by the techs.

Can I turn off phone and sms function?

Sometimes I want to watch movies without interruption. Can I turn off all the phone, sms, e-mail function and turn on only video? Just like iPod touch? If yes, how to?

You can go in and activate Airplane Mode which essentially turns off the radios (3G, Edge, Wifi, etc.). No phone calls will come through obviously.
This should allow you to watch movies without any interruptions. Obviously things like alarms will still function though.

I jailbreaked my iPhone 5 and now i don't want the jailbreak any more so i restored the iPhone without iTunes an now i don't wad then it turned itf off and now its stuck on the black screen with the loading sign. So please how can i turn my phone on again

I jailbreaked my iPhone 5 and now i don't want the jailbreak any more so i restored the iphone without iTunes and then it turned it self off and now its stuck on the black screen with the loading sign. So please how can i turn my iPhone on again?

I figured it out by pressing the home button and the off button but when i turn my phone on again it's not restored. And when i try to restore it with iTunes it has to update but i can't update my phone because it's jailbreaked but if i can't update it, it won't restore the phone.

My screen is locked on my 4S and I can not turn off phone

My screen is locked on my 4S I PHone. I can not turn off the phone and everytime I touch the screen Siri reports the action.

Have you tried resetting your iPhone?
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds).
No data will be lost.

Can you turn off phone calls and texts??

I am traveling to Buenos Aires from the United States for a minimester.. I called my cellular carrier and they do not have a plan to save me money in regards to phone calls and texts. I have the app What'sApp so I can use a data plan they offered me to keep in contact while I am way, however I am still afraid of racking up charges in texts and phone calls. Is there any possible way to turn off phone calls and text and strictly use the data plan they have given me?
I have the iPhone 5. Thank you.

FYI, that won't work. AirPlane disables all radio communications.
The best way to do this is to divert all calls.
Go to Settings
Phone
call forwarding and switch to O
Type in your carriers default voicemail number. Because it is the default number for voicemail is an exception in their list you won't be charged for the diversion.
remember to switch this off when you get back.
Then go to messages turn off send as SMS and MMS.
That should avoid most of the charges. Its inevitable that you'll get some but hopefully if you're careful it will be minimal.
Have you thought of using a local sim while you're there, you're iMessage will still work and your home SIM and account will be inactive so you won't get any unforseen chardges?
Good luck

Alarm issue. Pop ups so I can't turn my phone off

This doesn't happen every day- usually every other day to every 3rd day, but it's still annoying and I am sure my husband is going to kill me if it keeps doing it...
I set my alarm, which goes off, however I get pop ups from google play which then makes the alarm slider disappear and the alarm keeps going off in the background, I then have to turn the phone completely off :/ to stop it.
Please help me.... Techno idiot.... lol

That's odd, what if you update all the apps and restart the phone?
