    Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

  • IPhone 5 screen wont turn back on after making a call.

    When I put my phone to my ear, the screen turns black, like it should, but once I'm done, it wont turn back on... It does the same thing with siri. I active the raise to speak option and the screen turns black when I do it. I then have to press the sleep button two times to get to my lock screen. Is this an hardware or a software problem? If it is software, can an upcoming update fix it?

    I don't beleive this is a known problem and you should probably bring your phone to a local Genius Bar (make an appointment here) as this is likely a hardware issue (a problem with your phone realizing that you removed it from your ear).
    If you're willing to tinker with it a bit, you can determine if this is a software issue by backing up your iPhone (separately ensure your photos, videos and music is backed up) and then "Restore" your phone. If the restoration solves the problem, you're dealing with a software issue. If the problem still exists, you're almost definitely dealing with a hardware issue.

  • HT1688 my phone was fully charged and suddenly shut off but wont turn back on

    my phone was fully charged and suddenly shut down and wont turn back on

    Hi there,
    I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps for unexpected power off issues found in the article below. 
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Issue not resolved
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.

  • Wifi turns off when connected to mobile card, but wont turn back on

    I have a Sprint wireless internet card.  When I connect to the mobile card, the Wifi radio turns off.  I'm fine with it turning off while I'm connected to the mobile card, but the problem is that it wont turn back on when I disconnect the mobile card.  If I try to use the button or other basic on/off switches in windows to turn it on, they wont respond.  The only way I can get it back on is to run a troubleshoot, which shows that the radio is disabled and asks if I want to apply the fix that will turn it back on.
    I'm on a Toshiba Satellite A665-S5170, Windows 7 (64), in the U.S.
    Thank you.

    Hi
    So does this also happen if you dont connect the notebook to external monitor? So you can determine what is causing this problem.
    If the notebook doesnt shut down without external monitor you should try to update the BIOS and display driver. Both updates you can find on the Toshiba website:
    http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com => Support & Downloads => Download Drivers
    Do you close the lid if you have connected the external monitor?
    What OS are you using?
    Furthermore it would be interesting to know how you cleaned the notebook. Therefore I use compressed air spray that can blow out the dust from the cooling ventilators and you must not disassemble the notebook.
    Bye

  • IPhone shut off wont turn back on how do I fix it, iPhone shut off wont turn back on how do I fix it

    My IPhone screen shut off unable to get it back on, I thought the battery died plugged it in and nothing happened.  When you call my phone number it continues or ring like the phone is on Any idea how to fix it and if its not fixable any idea how to get pictures and what not that weren't saved to ICloud off the phone

    It sounds like the back lighting is either broke, or in some way turned off in the os.  If it is still ringing then I would think that it should connect to itunes and be backed up.
    If your not using itunes, download it and backup the phone.  Then search for instructions on how to do a factory reset.  Hopefully its some sort of software glitch and a reset will solve it, but you will loose anything that hasnt been backed up if you dont sync to itunes first.

  • My iPhone died and wont turn back on. My home button doesn't work to reboot it.

    It died last night and I put it on the charger and nothing happens not even the battery symbol comes up. I do have the iOS 7. I can't restart it because my home button doesn't work and i have to use assistive touch. It won't show up on itunes when i tried to plug it in. It's not the charger because it works on my other i-devices. I have an iphone 4.

    If the screen and iPod does not show any life then letting the batter drain will not do anything.
    If you tried another cable and tried ReBoot on another computer and still problem then your iPod has to be repaired/replaced

  • Was using my iphone 4 camera, phone froze, got it to shut down but now wont turn back on. What can I do?

    I was using my iPhone 4, took a picture, the phone froze. Some how got it to shut off, but now it wont turn back on. What should I do?

    Hi duckygallery,
    If your iPhone will not power on at all, the first thing I would suggest would be to make certain that battery has a sufficient charge. Plug in your device and let it charge for at least 10 minutes, then try turning it on. 
    See this article -
    Charge your iPhone and iPod touch - Apple Support
    You should see a battery icon while your device is charging. If you continue to see a black screen, reset your device.

  • HT1430 My iphone 5 wont turn back on , I've tried pressing the menu button and the switch button and hold it down for about 30 seconds but nothing , is there anything i can do ?

    my iphone 5 since friday , its been off and it wont turn back on , ive tried pressing the menu button and the switch on button  for about 30 seconds every day to see if anything happens , but nothing helps.
    PLEASE HELP

    I would 1st try to charge the phone at a different location than usual and if possible try different charging cords etc. and make sure that it is charging. If it appears to be charging let it sit for an hour or so and then try to power on again while the phone is still charging.

    my iphone 4s was working fine then it just turned off and wont turn back on but my home button dosent work what do i do?

    Apart from the battery being dead (make sure by plugging into a power source for 15 minutes), hold the sleep/wake button and home button together for 10 - 20 seconds or until the apple logo appears.

  • My iPhone 4 is shut off and wont turn back on, unless i plug it in an outlet & when i do that it says "connect to Itunes" & then i do that and the phone wont turn on & it shows nothing is plugged in . HELP!

    My iPhone 4 is shut off and wont turn back on, unless i plug it in an outlet & when i do that it says "connect to Itunes" & then i do that and the phone wont turn on & it shows nothing is plugged in . HELP!
    & it keeps trying to turn on but it wont . like the apple logo pops up for a minute , then turns off.

    Had exact same problem. Rang Apple support and various apple repairers. All of them said in effect, too bad, you'll have to lose everything since your last backup. It's a work phone with very important stuff on it and the latest backup was on a computer that had a virus. Convergence of crap :/
    Happened to talk to a friend who said to try replacing the battery. Did that. Problem fixed. All data saved.
    To all Apple support people: rather than say 'once it's in recovery mode you lose all data' try saying 'replace your battery and see if that works first'!!!!

  • My ipod 5 shut off and it wont turn back on. people say to hold down home and lock button but my home button is broken, what do i do

    My IPod 5 shut down and wont turn back on. people say to hold down home and lock button but my home button doesn't work. what do I do?

    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.
