Help me
nothings happening!!!

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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 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.

  • My ipad went blank last night for no apparent reason.  It was on one minute, and then completely dark.  I didn't touch it, it just seemed to have died.  I tried turning it back on/off, but nothing happens.  Anyone else have a similar situation?

    Thansk for the reply King_Penguin...let me elaborate and see what you think...I had the ipad2 in the office and saw the battery was getting really low.  I tried charging it with the iphone charger (connects to my pc at work).  It took a while, but it got enough juice in the ipad2 to bring it back to life.  when I got home, I hooked it up, and got to about 50%.  All was fine, then I was attempting to hook it up to my TV with the AV adapter (or VGA adapter, whatever it is), left the ipad alone for a minute, came back to it, and that's when it went dark.  I tried the home/sleep buttons, but only for about 5 seconds...any other suggestions in case that doesn't work?  Thanks again...

  • My phone randomly shut off. When I turned it back on it said it needed to restore, to plug it into itunes. When I did, and tried to restore it, it failed with a code 21. I have followed all the instructions, it still isn't working. Please help!

    My phone randomly shut off. When I turned it back on it said it needed to restore, to plug it into itunes. When I did, and tried to restore it, it failed with a code 21. I have followed all the instructions, it still isn't working. I've uninstalled and reinstalled all that the steps told me to, I've updated everything in my computer. I don't know what else to do. My phone will just show the apple sign and the itunes plug in sign.

    Given the state your device is in you have already erased your old stuff. You have an image on the screen that says, "Connect to iTunes." That's what the image means. So you will need iTunes on your computer.

    Installed PE12 in June, but haven't used it since.  Tried to open using shortcut and program, but nothing happens, help?
    Should I uninstall and reinstall, and if so does that cause additional problems?

    I'm having the same problem.  I used it one day and everything was fine...next day, nothing will open.  Tried uninstalling and re-installing numerous times but no change.  Tried to contact support and they don't support this product (I just purchased it in August).  Am VERY disheartened with their customer support.

    If a reset doesn't work, try and force iPad into Recovery Mode:
    1. Turn off iPad. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, slide to turn off.
    2. Connect USB cable to computer
    3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
    5. Release the Home button
    6. Open iTune (make sure you have the newest version of iTune)
    7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
    8. Use iTune to restore iPad
    Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad

  • I turned my iphone 3gs off and when i went to turn it back on it just stays on the apple logo and has been like that for quite some times

    Hello, my phone was being slow so i turned it off. when i went to turn it back on it did the usually white apple logo but it has been on that logo for 15 or more minutes now what do i do?

    First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

  • My iPhone 4S has started to turn off before its out of battery. There is no pattern it is completely random so I don't know when it will turn off, when I try to turn it back on it says it needs to be charged.

    As soon as I plug it in to the charger it reboots to the same percent it was originally on before it turned off for example today it turned off on 10% I tried to turn it back in and it said out of battery so I plugged it in to the charger and it immediately rebooted showing the apple logo and the phone was on 10% when it was fully rebooted.
    I was wondering do I need a battery replacement or is this something more serious.
    Many thanks.

    Hi Lukeohiggins,
    If you are having issues with your iPhone unexpectely powering off, you may want to try the troubleshooting listed under Power/Battery > Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off in the following article:

  • IPhone 4 screen flickering then turning off and when i try to turn it back on it either works or I get a white or purple screen. When i turn it off it doesn't turn back one

    Ok so this started around a week ago. I got home one afternoon put my phone down went back to it and pressed the home button and it seemed that it turned itself off so I tried turning back on, didn't work so I hooked it up to my laptop tried turning it on again it came on but I got a WHITE screen. So after that I decided to leave it for a bit I went to it after it started working fine...until 4 days later. I was on instagram and all of a sudden the screen starts flickering like crazy and then it turned itself off, I did what i did last time and just left it for a bit it came back on working fine. And then about 2 days ago I was listening to music and the screen froze then started flickering (getting quite annoyed at this stage) and then turned off, this time I tried turning it back on straight away only this time it worked. And that brings us to this morning, i was on facebook and about 5 minutes later it starts flickering and freezing once again and then turned itself off. So i hooked it up to my laptop I then got it to turn on for like 6 seconds then the screen started to dim and turned off. That brings us up to now about 10 minutes ago i tried turning it on, it turned on but I got a PURPLE screen and it just stayed like that until i turned it off. Does anybody have any idea what is going on? I think its the screen itself but i'm probably wrong. All help is appreciated.

    I am also having the same problem.. Its too much annoying and its unfortunate nobody at apple support has anyclue of what is happening?
    ... This is happening almost most of the time keeping my phone down most of the times.

  • I forgot my passcode, so now its disabled and it said i need to connect to itunes. But now i connected and its saying it can't open my ipod because it's locked. What do I do?

    I forgot my passcode to my ipod, so it said ineeded to connect it to iTunes because it's disabled. So, i connected to itunes and it said "Ipod cannot be used because it's being locked with a passcode. Unlock passcode and try again". Well i dont know my passcode and its disabled so i can't do anyhting. Now what do i do??

    Try connecting your iPod Touch to iTunes in recovery mode, allowing you to bypass the need to enter in the forgotten passcode.  See this article for instructions on getting your iPod into recovery mode.

  • Why I couldn't buy items in games, even thought I filled all of information in Payment. When I bought "gems" in Clash of Clan, it said that " can not connect with itunes store". Someone help me, please!

    Whenever I buy something in game, it says that " can not connect to itunes store". Why???? I fill all my payment information in app Store, bt I couldnt buy any thing. Why???

    Additonally, at this point I really want to talk to someone who cares about how a customer like I might feel in such a situation and when I call corporate would like to talk to someone who is interested in hearing my input as it really sucks to think I really don't feel like going to the store anymore and would rather just buy stuff on amazon or newegg these days instead;/  When I know how much i used to enjoy going into the store and getting friendly with kind staff who worked with me to get the best deal on the items I got--perhaps this was because it was at a more desperate time when Best Buys fate as a company was more precarious prior to price matching taking origin.  Also, on an aside, would like to add that obviously there is always the one or two people who go out of their way to make sure you have an excellent expeirenece so I am not trying to make any sweeping generalizations here.  In fact, I find the forum contributors to be among the most kind and helpful, but that might be because they don't have to deal with the now seemingly dreaded "pricematch" epidemic;D
