IPhone turning off and not back on again unless reset

Hi, thanks for looking. When unplugged from a power source and put in sleep mode manually or automatically, the phone won't turn back on unless I reset it. This means that it won't recieve any incoming texts or calls, and my alarm won't go off either. I've already ran through the trouble shooter, reset it to factory defaults, etc. Any help is appreciated

Two things to try; most likely you phone actually has an issue and you need to set up at appointment at your nearest apple store ot have it fixed (apple.com/retail) pick whatever store is closest.
However; windows computers often "attack" ipods or iphones thinking they are a virus. You may want to turn off your virus protection and plug the phone in again and try restoring it without any virus stuff on.
However, it sounds as long it's not a software issue but a hardware one and restore won't fix that.

  • Where can i exchange my not working iphone bought in Switzerland (on july 12, 2012.) that just turned off and not working since. In croatian store they don't want to give me replacement phone!!!!

    I have bought iphone 4s on July 12, 2012.in Zurich in offical Apple store (Glattzentrum) and after one and a half months it just turned off and not working since. I tried three charges and nothing (it detects that charger is on but it cannot be charged). So now I have a not working phone only two and something months after purchase. But the problem is that in Croatia we have two apple reseller stores and neither don't want to exchange it, although is under warranty!!!! The closest stores are 250 km from Zagreb...Of course I have contacted Apple store in Zurich but they told me to come in Switzerland or to send credit card data for receiving new iphone, the problem is I don't have credit card with 700 euro on it!!!! what to do?? who to call ??? where to get replacment device cause this is disaster???? I wanted to buy ipad but after all this I doubt to do so...I have not working Iphone payed around 700 chf or 800 usd and cannot change it in my country, is it possible for such vast organization like apple that this things can occur????? So much for customer support

    “the EU is considered one country for warranty purposes“
    Not the case at all whilst there are harmonized minimum standards governing guarantees, warrantees remain national as these vary (Add to) minimum legal protection.
    Some how you need to get your phone back to Switzerland.

  • Frustratingly, since I upgraded to Yosemite 10.10, I too am having the worst problems with WiFi dropping out. I've never had this problem before on my iMac 27-inch mid 2011 model. Turning WiFi off and then back on again sometimes works. Help please.

    Frustratingly, since I upgraded to Yosemite 10.10, I too am having the worst problems with WiFi dropping out. I've never had this problem before on my iMac 27-inch mid 2011 model. Turning WiFi off and then back on again sometimes works. Help please. I've already tried a lot of your suggested fixes, but without success. Why hasn't Apple Fixed this?

    Please test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved. Back up all data before making any changes.
    Step 1
    Take the applicable steps in this support article. The Wireless Diagnostics program generates a large file of information about your system, which would be used by Apple Engineering in case of a support incident. Don't post the contents here.
    Step 2
    Disconnect all USB 3 devices. If you don't know which are USB 3, disconnect all USB devices except keyboard and mouse.
    Step 3
    If you're not using a wireless keyboard or trackpad, disable Bluetooth by selecting Turn Bluetooth Off from the menu with the Bluetooth icon. If you don't have that menu, open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and check the box marked Show Bluetooth in menu bar. Test. If you find that Wi-Fi works better with Bluetooth disabled, you should use the 5 GHz Wi-Fi band. Your router may not support it; in that case, you need a new router.
    Step 4
    Open the Energy Saver pane in System Preferences and unlock the settings, if necessary. Select the Power Adapter  tab, if there is one. Uncheck the box marked
              Wake for Wi-Fi network access
    if it's checked.
    Step 5
    Open the Network pane in System Preferences and make a note of your settings in the Wi-Fi service. It may be helpful to take screenshots of the various tabs in the preference pane. If the preference pane is locked, unlock it by clicking the padlock icon and entering your administrator password. Delete Wi-Fi from the service list on the left by selecting it and clicking the minus-sign button at the bottom. Then recreate the service by clicking the plus-sign button and following the prompts.
    Step 6
    In the Wi-Fi settings, select
              Advanced... ▹ TCP/IP ▹ Configure IPv6: Link-local
    Click OK and then Apply.
    Step 7
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    Step 8
    Reset the PRAM.
    Step 9
    Launch the Keychain Access application. Search for and delete all AirPort network password items that refer to the network. Make a note of the password first.
    Step 10
    Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service center.

  • My iphone turned off and won't turn back on

    Hi. First of all, what iPhone is it? The following might help:
    1) Push and hold power button for 10 seconds, unless you see an Apple Logo
    2) Push and hold power and home button for 5 seconds
    3) Plug it into your computer and see if anything happens, or
    4) Try to charge it
    Also, what happened when you tried to turn it on?

  • So, my iphone 5 will be no where close to dying but when I go to slide to unlock it turns off then turns back on. Or if I go to my camera it turns off and right back on. What's going on?

  • I have an iPhone 4 and since I updated to iOS6 I must hit the home button several times to return home or sometimes turn off and then back on. Any thoughts? Could this be related to running low on available storage?

    my iphone turned off and it wont turn back on ive tried everything but my home button is broekn so i cant recover it how can i fix this?

    Well, if your Home button is broken, you won't be able to reset your phone, and if the Sleep/Wake button won't turn your phone on, it's a trip to the Apple store.

    Try to force your phone into recovery mode. Disconnect it from the computer's USB cord. Turn it off if you can by holding the sleep/wake switch until you see the red slide to off. If you can't turn it off, please continue. Press and hold the home button while plugging it into the computer's USB cord. Continue holding the Home button while iPhone starts up. While starting up, you will see the Apple logo. When you see "Connect to iTunes" on the screen, you can release the Home button and iTunes will display the recovery mode message.  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    Then you can restore your phone:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414

    I have been trying to download the movie Prometheus onto my Ipad. It sticks at 793mb and hasn't moved for hours. I have 48gb of space on my i-pad and have hard resetted and turned off and switched back on, always reconnecting with wi-fi immediately. It doesn't resume?
    I haven't even received an email stating I have been charged for it???
    Any ideas??

    Well I have an update. I decided to stay as I was so far down the road. They gave me an engineer appointment of 14 of August which was totally disgusting.
    I rang up to complain and was promised a call back as they tried to expediate my request. Never happened.
    Whilst on these calls I also questioned the validity of sending another engineer unless they first checked that my local cabinet hard an available fibre port. I was promised and promised that they would put the notes on the call and it would not be a wasted engineer visit.
    Engineer came today. Wasted visit - no ports on the cabinet.
    He was not even sure why he was sent there knowing there were no ports. Talk about the blind leading the blind.
    The incompetency of this corporation is absolutely astounding even when their customers are telling them they are going to fail they lie to your face just to appease you on the phone and move you on.
    So I ordered my switch from sky to BT on June 6th.. and so far all I have is a phone line.
    On top of this I noticed that they have charged me a late payment fee by DD and full line rental for first month. BT were so slow at installing it all that my up front line rental apparently did not cover their initialy switch over. Despite telling me I would not be charged I have been charged.
    Now as a web designer I am now tempted to create basic website and use my SEO skills to push it to top of google rankings sharing with everyone of my experience of BT.

    My software was up to date, I did a restore and a restart. My iphone kept turning off in the middle of the restore so it took a while. Nothing seemed to work. I left it charging over night and it did finally charge.
