I dropped my iPhone 4S, and now it won't turn on...

I just got it, and I dropped it, and now it won't turn on. I usually always have cases on my phones, but I'm waiting for it to come in the mail. And just my luck, I dropped it.
I tried plugging it in to my computer, and it just makes the sync noise repeatedly. But won't turn on. Is this fixable? I really can't afford to buy a new one at $600. this close to Christmas. Please help me!

Hmm. That helps. But I just got it through my service provider, so its only a week old. Lets hope its less then the $200!
Thanks!

  • I dropped my iPhone 4 and now it won't turn on it all.

    I've shook it to see if it's broken inside and i dont hear anything. The charger won't bring it on and it's not cracked or scratched. What can I try to get it to turn on? Will they fix it at the apple store for free or will there be a fee?

    It sounds like the drop was able to break something internally. Apple Store usually do not fix iPhone. Instead they repace them. Since your iPhone is damaged they will charge you $149 for the replacement.

  • Dropped iPhone 5c and now it won't turn on

    My cousin dropped his iPhone 5c and now it won't turn on. It doesn't charge or make any noise. What should I do?

    Try to reset the phone
    Hold the sleep and home buttons until the apple logo appears and allow normal boot up - there is no data loss
    If this does not work - then chances are that there is hardware damage that cannot be fixed through the user troubleshooting methods and bring it to an Apple or authorized repair store

  • HT4061 We just updated our mom's iPhone 4, and now it won't turn on.  When it does, it says "iTunes" and wants me to connect to it.  Nothing I do makes it go away, and I can't get it to turn on.  Help!

    I just updated my mom's Iphone 4, and now it won't turn on.  When it does, there is a "itunes" icon, with the cord picture, which is asking me to connect to Itunes, I believe.  Can't get past this screen to even turn it on.  What do I do without having to restore her entire phone, which I have no idea how to do that?

    You need to restore using the recovery mode described in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212 and may need to do that more than once to succeed.

  • I dropped my iPhone 3G and now it won't past the apple logo screen

    I was listening music this morning and I accidentally dropped my iPhone 3G and hit the floor, it turned off in
    that moment, and I tried to turn it on and didn't work, when I got home I connected to the
    computer with the USB cable and the apple logo screen showed up but after aprox. 15-20 seconds
    turns off, and iTunes doesn't recognizes it, is there any solution or do I need to take it to repair?

    Reset, hold both Home and Power buttons until the iPhone begins to restart, usually takes about 10 seconds of holding both buttons. If still problem, Restore iPhone, connect iPhone to computer with iTunes 10.7 or 11 open, hold both Home and Power buttons for about 20 seconds until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode. Click Restore button of iTunes. If still problem perform DFU Mode Restore of iPhone.

  • I updated to iOS 8 on my iPhone 5c and now it won't turn on and I know it was fully charged any ideas?

    Have updated my iPhone 5c to iOS 8 and restored it and now it won't turn on.  I have tried plugging it in even though I know it was fully charged, I have shut down my rebooted my computer and iTunes from scratch and reconnected my phone and still nothing, any ideas?

    Hello Nikmuz,
    It sounds like your screen is either black so it looks like it is not on, or it is just plain not turning on at all and it is also not being recognized in iTunes. I would recommend the followng troubleshooting from this article to help you determine whether that is the case or not, named:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    Toggle the ringer switch to see if the unit vibrates. If it does, it could be that iPhone is getting power, but is not displaying any image.
    While connected to the iPhone charger, try to reset the iPhone.
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

  • I reset everything on my iphone 4 and now it won't turn on. It ***** on a loading screen and my lock button is broken. what do i do?!

    I reset everything on my iphone 4 and now it's stuck on a loading scree and my lock button is broken. what do i do?!

    There is nothing you can do as you won't be able to reset the device.
    You can wait until the battery goes flat then try connecting it to power so it restarts. If the same issue occours then you'll need to restore it on iTunes by entering recovery mode.

  • I dropped my iPhone 4 and now it won't sync to iTunes

    Last night I dropped my iPhone 4 pretty severely and smashed the front glass. It's been working fine, with the occasional freak out (podcasts stop playing after ten seconds or so, but that righted itself), but this morning (after turning it on & off) I went to sync it with iTunes and it has been stalling at Preparing To Sync with an error message that says "An internal device error occurred." This sounds pretty scary.
    Is there anything I can do for it or should I take it to the Apple Store? I was planning to get an iPhone 5 in Februrary, so I don't want to have to pay for costly repairs (it's out of warranty).
    If there's nothing I can do for the internal device error, how do I get my podcasts onto my phone? The new app doesn't download the episodes for some reason. This is the only part of the data I can't do without syncing.

    Your device is broken.  If you want a device that works better than the one you have now, then you'll either need to bring your phone into Apple for out of warranty exchange ($149), or find a 3rd party repair shop in your area and see what they can do, if anything at all.

  • My iphone froze and now it won't turn on or charge! Help please!

    I downloaded a book app onto my phone, after trying to use it, it froze and the home button wouldn't work, so me being the idiot that I am decided that maybe if I locked it, it would work.. it didn't and so the phone went black, but it would still ring and play music (although I couldn't answer), and then once my music stopped playing, I couldn't turn it back on. Now, my phone has finally died and has been charging for about an hour, via the wall and now via the computer and it still hasn't turned on. Any suggestions?

  • I had a temperature warning come up on my iPhone 4 and now it won't turn on

    I had a temperature warning come up on my iPhone 4 saying I needed to cool it to use it or something and turned it off and attempted to turn it back on as a means of fixing it, but it didn't work and now my phone isn't turning back on and even when I connect it to the charging cable (either to a plug socket or iTunes via my laptop) nothing happens; it doesn't even seem to detect it, my phone is still lifeless.
    Anyone know what to do about this and how to fix my phone again? Cos right now, it's nothing more than a nice looking paper-weight. Would appreciate the feedback, thanks.

    Try a hard reset while connected to power: (adapter, not iTunes on computer): Press and hold both the Home button and Sleep/wake button at the same time for about 15 seconds and release when the Apple Logo appears.
    If this doesn't work: try to force restore: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808

  • Updated my iphone 4s and now it won't turn on

    I updated my iPhone 4S today and now it is stuck in a loop with the apple logo.  I tried doing the restore/recovery mode and it runs for 5 minutes then comes up and says it cannot be restored.  Anything I can do or do I need to go to the Apple store?

    If the phone won't restore from iTunes, there isn't much you can do. If your phone is still under the 1 year warranty or you purchased AppleCare+, Apple will be able to swap your phone out at no cost. If you are no longer under warranty, you can get a replacement 4S for $199 plus tax, in which case you may want to consider upgrading if you're eligible.

  • I dropped my iphone 4s and now it won't power up, I dropped my iphone 4s and now it won't power up

    I just dropped my phone onto asphalt from the car, about a 2.5 foot drop. The phone was wearing a case and no damage was done to the phone. the phone was off when I picked it up and will not power up. Any suggestions for how to fix this myself?

    Apparently some damage to the iPhone did occur. Using a case doesn't guarantee zero damage when dropped depending on the case.
    If the iPhone won't power on the normal way and the same with a reset, make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby.

  • I dropped my iPhone 4 and now it won't go past initial set up assistant. Any fixes?

    I dropped my phone. It said to plug into iTunes so I did a full restore. Now the phone boots into the setup assistant. However once I get to the end it tells me to sync with iTunes. When I plug it in to the iMac it says there is a problem with the iPhone. Is there a reason for this? Any ideas on how to fix?
    Thanks,
    Sam

    Is there a reason for this?
    Make an appointment at the genius bar. You probably broke something.
