Iphone 4 wont power on

I have an Iphone 4, when i try and boot it up I only get the "Apple" logo for some time then it vanishes,
I can boot it in almost any way and thats all i get. if i plug it into the PC it will show the logo then vanish like i was doing the normal power on or "Home" / "Power button" method, If i plug it into my PC it goes into the recovery mode,
Problem is i have loads of photos which has not been backed up and I would like to get these off before "Restoring" phone, is there any way this is possible?
The issue came up when i tried to update to 8.1, left my PC alone for a while when i came back the phone was not working.
I have left the phone "charging" for a long period of time plugged into the PC and the wall while plugged in the power sign does not appear on the laptop the pc prompts saying would i like to update or restore this, if i click update after about 10 /15 mins the phone reboots itself again (this part happens when i put it into recovery mode) I cannot view the Iphone as another drive
Thanks

Sorry there is no way for you to save your pictures in the condition your phone is in.

    iphone wont power up

    I had a similar problem with my IPhone4. I plugged it in to charge and it turned itself off and would not restart.
    I took it to a genius bar but they couldn't get it to restart and were going to charge me for an exchange as it was out of warranty.
    I tried on and off, lots and lots of times to reset it and after 4 days it suddenly restarted but with a very low battery warning. I then charged it up and managed to get it working again, although it shut itself down a few more times over the next couple of days it and I had to reset it. The last time was very strange - I was listening to music when the phone suddenly started to vibrate for several seconds as if it was receiving an incoming call and locked up. I had to do another forced reset to get it to stop vibrating.
    Since then the phone has been working completely normally.
    This was over three weeks ago.
    I think it was a software issue and something to do with ICloud.
    Hope this helps

  • Iphone wont power on unless on charge and itunes cannot restore iphone,, what can i do?

    I recently bought an iphone off Ebay, the seller said it was broken and described the problems too me, the phone in my view is fixable. The main problem i have is that the phone wont power on unless it is plugged in on charge. This is where it leads onto my next problem. there are a lot of ways people are describing to restore the phone if it doesnt work. (Hold down power and home, let go of power then it goes into a certain mode which it will let it restore then connect to itunes.) My problem is that to do this i have to be connected to itunes to get it to this stage.
    the battery isnt the problem I have been told as the previous owner said they had replaced the battery already to see if that was the problem but it clealy wasnt.
    If anyone can help me to restore this phone or tell me if I need to just take it to a repare shop. If there is a simple way of doing it myself and saving about £100 I would love to hear it!!!

    How exactly were you able to do that? Since the only signed software, for your phone, is iOS 7.0.3, that's the only version of iOS you could install on your phone.

  • My iphone wont power on is there a warranty

    my iphone won't power up can't find my paper work is warranty 1 year?

    The warranty is 1 year. You should not need any paperwork to get it serviced.
    Try holding the power and home buttons down together for 10-20 seconds. This should force a re-boot.

  • Syncing iphone and now phone is stuck and wont power off or do anything

    syncing iphone and now phone is stuck and wont power off or do anything

    Reboot the phone:  hold down the power button and the home button at the same time until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "slide to shut down".  When the screen has been completely black for a few minutes, press the power button again.

  • Iphone 4s wont power on, im just getting a blank screen with battery charging on front screen

    iphone 4s wont power on, im just getting a blank screen with battery charging on front screen>>>>becouse it is after damage water

    At Apple Store, if you have AppleCare +, replacement iPhone 4S costs $50, if no +, then it will cost $199. Either your battery is faulty, the power management is faulty, or the charging port is faulty, or all three. Start with battery replacement. If still problem, then try charging port with flex cable replacement. If still problem, then it is very complex fix or no fix at all possible.

    Hi Brennahunt,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your iPhone is not recognized by iTunes for Windows, try these troubleshooting steps first:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    If the steps in the article above do not solve the issue, completely remove and reinstall iTunes using the method in this article:
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    This process should not affect any music or content on your computer, but you may want to
    back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive.
    When reinstalling iTunes (step 3 in the article above), be sure that you are logged in to your computer as an Administrator:
    Make sure you have an administrator account.
    To install iTunes or QuickTime, you need to log in as an administrator on the computer. If you're not sure you have an administrator account, you may find this Microsoft article helpful: Windows 7: How do I log on as an administrator?You can refer to the Help documentation from Microsoft, contact your IT department, or visitsupport.microsoft.com for more information.

  • I have an iPod touch 4g that wont power on

    Hi. I just bought a iPod touch 4g second hand. It worked perfectly when i looked at it & when i got it. Ive had it for almost a month & out of the blue it wont power on or show that it is charging. How do i fix this? Is this something that can be fixed? Could it need a new battery or charging port? 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.
