Iphone 4 will not power up. shut itself down after recording video and attemptimg to send via mms.

Iphone 4 shut itself down about 10 hours ago after I recorded a new video and attempted to send the video via mms.  Tried many times to power up using standard power up procedures.  I noticed that it seemed to be getting hot.  I removed the protective cover and the actual phone was very warm.  even after 2 hours it appeared to be overheating.  has not been dropped or gotten wet.  any solutions?  has this happened to anyone else before?

Hmmm, press and hold (about 10sec) the Home and Power button until you see the Apple logo. That restarts your iPhone and should fix your problem.

  • My lock button is broken and my iphone will not power back on when I charge it, how do I turn it on?

    My iphone will not power on when I plug it into charger in the wall, computer, or car. My lock button is broken and I do not know how to turn it back on. My phone did not die it just went black and has not been dropped, cracked, or gotten wet. What do I do?

    Normally one would do a reset, however without the lock button, which is the sleep/wake button, you cannot do a reset. You could always wait until the battery dies to see if it will start when plugged in, but the sleep/wake button is an integral part of the phone and needs to work to do a number of functions. I suggest that you make an appointment at the Genius Bar to get it fixed.

  • TS1884 How do you cope with a system that shuts itself down after a safe boot progress bar is completed?

    How do you resolve a problem with a system that shuts itself down after a safe reboot and when the progress bar is completed? Thanks.

    Thanks for you response - the honest answer is I don't know, not being particularly IT literate. I do know however that I'm running Maverick if that is of any help?
    I also tried the Command R route, along with holding some other keys as per the Apple troubleshooting guide, but no luck. My wife pointed out though that the system was running slowly over the last few days and we had quite a lot of the 'spinning beach ball' before being able to undertake tasks.
    Lastly, I inserted my start up disk bit as the system is unable to start I'm now unable to retrieve it. All-in-all a real pain.
    Appreciate any advice. Many thanks.

  • Computer shuts itself down after about 30 seconds

    Ive had my computer since 2008 and it has ran perfectly fine untill a few moths ago where the fan just started making loud noises and just generally over working even when the computer isnt hot. Suddenly a month or two ago it started shutting itself down after about 10 minutes and it just got progressivly worse and it wont even get too the start up screen. Is there any idea on what causes this or how i can fix it because I really dont have the money too purchase a new computer and it would save ALOT of hassle too get it repaired,
    Thanks, Jack

    This is usually a sign that your headphones are not plugged all the way in.  Make sure you cannot see any silver still showing from the headphone's plug.  It may require a little extra force to get the headphones to become fully inserted.  You should hear a sort of clicking noise indicating that they have been fully seated.
    Also check the headphone port from a damage or debris.

    I get as far as what appears to be restoring my phone then when the software has downloaded, iTunes insists on my phone accepting it's access. I had carried out this action two weeks ago when I had the same issue on my phone and managed to restore it successfully, but it isn't happening now. I have updated iTunes to the latest version since the last time, and also my iPhone to the latest version.  I have had endless trouble with this phone so having gone through all the steps suggested in various forums it is clear that it is an issue with the phone, not helped by the recent iOS and iTunes updates with stricter security.

    James did you find a solution? Last night my daughter put her Macbook Pro to sleep and now it won't turn on or charge? I think it is not charging because the light does not come on. We charged mine and the light came on and worked so it is clearly her computer. Help!!!

  • My iPhone will not power off. It automatically turns back on after trying to shut it off. Any Ideas?

    My iPhone 5 will not power off. I hold the power button down and it lets me turn it off but then it automatically turns back on. It is as if I am just restarting it. Any ideas on how to fix it? I already had it exchanged and the replacement is now doing it.

    I had this same problem about a year ago. It is most likely because debris has been caught in the cable connector. Get a cotton bud or something soft so that you don't cause any damage, and gently clean the inside of the dock connector of your phone. Do not use any liquids. Hope this helps.

  • TS1713 My mac sometimes will not power up even though it is fully charged and no matter how many key's I touch will not bring it on. It comes on after about 10 minutes and I have to shut down about 6 windows before I can open up a browser.

    My mac will not power up even though it is fully charged. It only happens occasionally and when I try to power up after about 10 minutes it comes to life but has 6 or 7 windows that I have to close in order to open up my browser.

  • My iphone will not power on???

    I have tried pressing the top key and home key but nothing happens. My phone will not power on...

    Connect to Wall Charger for 10 minutes, the iPhone may turn ON itself. If still OFF keep on charger and Reset, hold both home and power buttons until the iPhone begins to start. This can take about 20 seconds time of holding both buttons while on charger.

  • My iphone will not power off

    My Iphone 4s will not power off and the battery is draining with a couple of hours ? Help please

    Try an iPhone reset first which is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release. This is similar to a computer restart.
    Try powering the iPhone off again after doing so.

  • HT4528 my iphone will not power on - the battery and morphie are fully charged

    My iphone is fully charged as is the morphie but it will not power on.  The battery strength button on the bottom shows all four lights.  I have pushed the sleep/wake button on the top, I have pushed the home button but nothing happens - the screen remains black

    Have you tried resetting your device by pressing and holding the Home button and power button until the silver apple appears?

  • IPhone Will Not Power Off or Go Into Silent Mode

    Yesterday I discovered that I had my phone switch flipped to Silent Mode, and my phone was still making the General Sounds and Still Ringing. No matter what I do I can't get it to Vibrate instead of ring.
    Also it will not power off, no matter how long I hold the button nothing happens, it wont even lock. I tried performing a hard rest by holding the Home Key & Power Button, but instead of reseting the Voice Control pops up and my iPod starts playing.
    Any Help Is Greatly Appreciated ♥

    - Try another cable.
    - Try on another computer
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • Brand new pro shuts itself down after 30 seconds

    Help please!
    I bought Mac Pro two months ago and have used it mainly for pages, internet browsing and watching movies from my external hard drive. Since I've had it, it has gone to sleep (black screen) after just a few minutes of not touching the keyboard and takes almost a minute to wake up again when i try to rouse it by touching a key or space bar or use mousepad - really annoying if writing or presenting a lecture!
    Now, it shuts itself down about 30 seconds after switching it back on again. It opens up to a black screen with the Apple loading sign, the browser appears with 'chrome wasn't shut down properly' and then the computer switches itself off again.  I can't get it to stay on long enough to check any settings. It's only two months old and has maximum storage.
    I didnt purchase any additional virus software - could it be a virus? Or just a faulty machine?
    Also - I bought it in the US with extended warranty but no additional insurance.. I live in the uk but am currently in India and so cant take it to an apple store. Am I covered with warranty?
    Thanks.

    - could it be a virus?
    No.
