I phone 4 turned off and wont turn back on

phone turned off and wont turn back on any ideas?

I had the exact same problem today. Scheduled a Genius Bar appointment but this is bizarre that multiple people are having the same issue at the same time. Spooky, even.

  • My ipod has just turned off and wont come back on

    my ipod has just turned off and wont come back on but i know it had a good amount of battery left and if i plug it into my computer or docking station nothing happens please help...

    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.

  • HT203175 how do i know if my phone is charging when it just powered off and wont power back up?

    How do I know if my phone is charging when it just powered off and wont power back up?

    Hold the power button and it should show a red battery icon with a lightning bolt symbol. That symbol indicates charging.

  • IPhone 4S switched itself off and wont come back on. Please help?

    Hi,
    My iPhone 4S has started switching itself off randomly over the last week but would then switch itself back on several minutes later by itself. However, last night it switched itself off and no matter what ive tried it wont come back on. Ive tried the home+power button, connected to itunes and not, connected to itunes with the home button pressed. I rang the Geek Squad as I have insurance and they could suggest anything more. Im loathed to take it back to the shop as all the sales assistant will do is send it off, give me a rubbish temporary phone/brick and it will take ages to come back. I would be grateful if anyone can help please?

    Hi, my phone eventually came back to life of its own accord the next day but with virtually no battery life even though I'd given it a full charge. After it came back on I plugged it in to be recharged but the back became very warm whilst the power drained quicker than usual after I unplugged it.
    I took it to the Apple store later that day and thankfully the phone switched itself off again right in front of one of the Genius assistants. He couldn't diagnose the problem and so gave me a brand new handset straight away. Credit to Apple there and I'm so glad I didn't take it back to the car phone warehouse where I bought it from. They would have sent it away for tests for weeks.
    I've had no problems with my new handset to date.

  • HT1688 my iphone just completey shut off, and wont come back on, even when connected to the charger

    my iphone completely turned off and will not come back on, even when connected to the charger. how can i turn it back on?

    Hello ozzy9294,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    Display has no backlight or dark screen
    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.
    Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
    While connected to the iPhone charger, try to reset the iPhone.
    If the low-battery screen appears, charge the iPhone.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

    i have an iphone 5 but it was not listed below

    You have a bootlegged copy of the iOS 7 beta installed, don't you?
    Congratulations, they caught up with you. That's what you get for stealing software.

  • Powered off and wont power back on

    Any ideas?  my phone started powering off, I had to reseat the battery, and after a week of diing that it simply will not power back on at all.

    I had the same issues, combined with rapid discharge of the battery. I replaced the battery and it solved the problem.
    When purchasing a battery, make certain it is a genuine C-S2 battery from a reputable source. The C-S2 is encoded for use in the 8300 (and a few other) series, but other Blackberry modles/batteries are incompatible, even though the battery may physically fit. Additionally, there are fake (non-encoded) batteries circulating around (some other posts report some on E-Bay) that look genuine, but when you insert into your device you receive a battery error indication.
    Best of luck!

  • My down arrow button fell off and wont' go back on

    My MBP is about a month old, and today the down arrow popped off, and won't seem to stay on.
    It made me realize that with the new design, the keyboard can't really be replaced, should I go to the Genius Bar, does anybody know what they might do to fix this?

    Hi jperkinski,
    Speaking from personal experience, many of the Genius Bars have "spare keys" laying around from old keyboard assemblies and top cases. I know I've had my MacBook keys replaced once or twice and in both cases the Mac Genius was able to get me a new keycap and the little plastic scissor that sits underneath it.
    Definitely head down to your nearest Genius Bar (make sure to make an appointment) and see if they can assist.

  • Iphone 4 just turned off and wont come back on

    Was on the phone in my car on the handsfree, then all of a sudden got disconnected. looked at my iphone 4 and it switched off. got home and tried charging it up and nothing happened, then tried plugging it into my pc to do a restore or see if i get any life and nothing !
    got no phone now and because you have to have a micro sim you have to de activate your regular size sim. so now got no sim to put into a normal phone.
    please help someone ! aaaaahhhh !!

    Hey guys,
    I was with my friend who had the same problem with his iPhone 4 today and as I was researching the problem I tried all the tricks and nothing seemed to work.
    Until I came across some info that suggested the problem was with a proximity sensor.
    Basically his phone was on(when someone called it would ring on their end instead of going straight to voicemail), but not respond tto touch or anything.
    So I held the power button and slid my finger across the screen as if to "switch" it off even though the screen was blank and waited before holding the button again to turn it back on.
    Once I did this it booted back up as if nothing happened.
    Hope this is the same problem, good luck.

    Have you tried to reset it? Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. If you see the silver apple, let go and let it reboot and see if it comes back

  • My iMessage was turned off and wont go back on

    I went to Aruba from the US and I turned off my iMessage and what I was trying to do didn't work. I'm trying to turn it back on but when i click to turn it on under it is saying "Waiting for activation..." then under that is saying to "Use Your Apple ID for iMessage" and I'm trying to sign in with my information but when I plug it in it's saying "iMessage Activation - Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again". All my information is correct and even after that I was plugging in any password I could think of. Nothing is working.

    Hi,
    Try resetting your iPod:  Press/hold the home and sleep/wake buttons until the Apple logo appears. 
    If that doesn't work, connect your iPod to iTunes and you will have to restore it:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414. 
    Hope this helps!

  • Anyone have any idea why there is an "error" when trying to activate iMessage? It randomly turned itself off and wont go back on.

    This just happened yesterday

    I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)
