Iphone 5 got wet, now apple logo keeps blinking and phone is unresponsive. When I try to restore it I get error code 21 then on another computer I get error code 2006.
My iPhone 5 got wet and I dried it out for 3 days. Now when I charge it the apple logo keeps blinking. Phone is unresponsive, so I tried to restore it but got error code 21. Tried on another computer and got error code 2006. Any suggestions, or is it impossible to get it back?

Error 20, 21, 23, 26, 28, 29, 34, 36, 37, 40
These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart.
Error 2000-2009 (2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, and so on)
If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software. If the errors persist on another computer and known-good USB cable, the device may need service.
If neither of those fix it, then it's toast. it will have to be replaced.

IPad: Apple logo keeps blinking. Device wont turn on.
While coming from work, I got myself wet a bit and so did my iPad2. It was working till then, fine, once I reached home, I put it to charge, and since then it hasn't started, only Apple Logo keeps blinking.
My device is under warranty and tech-support, in fact its just 2 months old. Have I lost it completely ?
What shall I do ?More solutions for wet iPad.

My ipad screens apple picture keeps blinking and will not open
my ipad screens apple picture keeps blinking and will not open. I have tried pressing both top and bottom button together, pressing just the top, etc. and nothing...it just keeps blinking the apple?
Hello llp03,
Thanks for the question, that definitely sounds frustrating. The following troubleshooting assistant provides steps that may lead to a resolution:
Apple - Support - iPad - iPad Troubleshooting Assistant
http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/assistant/ipad/
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes
- Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
- If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more about restoring iOS software.
- If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode.

I did force shutdown on my MacBook Pro (2006 year, 15.4"), so, when I tried to boot, it shows apple logo (as usual) and shuts down. When I booting MacBook with Option key pressed it shows lock icon and field for password. Please help me.
Wait for advice on repairing a damaged filesystem. Forceshutdown stops processs in mid-stream and leaves some parts not-valid.
Do not proceed until you get that avice. -
My IPhone 4S does not accept the installation of IOS 5.1.1 when I try to restore it. It just says error 1
Hi Rander4,
Sorry i am just responding, I had to find out from the shop where I purchased the IPhone if it was jail broken and I ve now confirmed that it was not jail broken.
What could possibly be done? -
my iPhone 3gs is asking me for a password to unlock back up when i try to restore it. I updated to ios5 on a friends computer, I have tried every single password i have ever used and its not working...does this mean i lose everything?? help what do i do??
Your friend may have Encrypeted Backups enabled on their iTunes if so that person should know the password if they don't I don't think there is much luck for you but I am research methods to unlock iPhone encrypted backups! If I find anything I shall let you know!

I phnoe4s not working. when i connect to charger apple logo keeps blinking
my i phnoe4s not working. when i connect to charger apple logo keeps blinking
Hello abuwafi,
The troubleshooting steps detailed below can help get your iPhone back into working order.
If your battery doesn't charge, or if your device shows a low-battery image, black screen, or "accessory not supported" alert, follow these steps.
Inspect the connector at the bottom of the phone:
Make sure that there are no bent pins in the connector.
Make sure that the connector is free from debris.
If there are bent pins or debris, please contact Apple Support.
Otherwise, continue troubleshooting.
Make sure that the outlet you're using works.
Make sure that the Apple USB cable and Apple USB power adapter work.
Plug the device in to power and let it charge until your device turns on. This could take between 10 and 30 minutes. If you don't have an Apple USB power adapter, try connecting to a computer's high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be on.
If the device still exhibits an issue, try turning your device off and then on again while connected to power.
If the issue persists, please contact Apple Support.

Apple logo keeps flashing and i cant restart because power button is broken
My apple logo keeps flashing on my phone for about 10 seconds at a time. I know most of you will tell me to hold the power and home button but the problem is my power buttons broken. Also, plugging it into my wall and laptop won't do anything. I'm not sure what else to try, any advice is appreciated.
There really isn't anything to do. You'll need to bring your phone to Apple for replacement.

My iphone stopped working today. It only shows a blinking Apple logo when I connected it to a power. I tried to reboot it, but it didn't work. I followed a online suggestion to reboot by restore data from Itune. But when I did, Itune show a message that says it can't restore my iphone because an error 21 occurred.
Can anyone help me get my phone work again?Hi francesyulin,
If you are having issues restoring your iPhone due to an "error 21", you may find the following articles helpful:

IPhone doesn't want to start with apple logo keeps blinking
Hi all!
I was using my iPhone, with its battery more than 70%, but suddently it tuned off by itself. I tried restarting though on/off button and home button, but it didn't start. I tried recharging and it didn't work as well. When I tried to connect to iTunes, the phone was not detected as usual. Then, the screen only showed the apple logo blinking every 3 seconds. I also tried updating my itunes, yet it still had no effect. Any other advice how to solve this problem? Thanks.Disable any firewall or security software and restart the computer.
Also make sure your up to date on iTunes software go to your start menu > all programs > Apple software update
or on mac go to and choose software update and make sure your on iTunes 11.0.4 then restart the computer and retry the recovery mode restore. -
please help i accidentally erase all contents and settings in my iphone 3g . how to retrieve it? everytime i on my phone apple logo comes out.
Hold down the on/off button and the home button for 20 to 30 sec, when the iPod starts and the Apple logo is on the screen release the on/off button but continue to hold the home button until you see the plug into iTunes screen. Connect the iPod to iTunes and you should be good to go.

- 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.
