Iphone won't come on all i see is the apple sign

iphone wont come on all it does is show the apple sign

Hello treasy,
Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPhone.
I recommend following steps 2-6 below for the issue you described:
If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on),reset your device.
If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
Let charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged.
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, and then restore it.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.

If you get to step 5, I recommend backing up your iPhone before performing the restore:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

  • Ipod wont turn on all i see is the apple sign then my ipod shuts off again, how to fix it?

    ipod wont turn on all i see is the apple sign then my ipod shuts off again, how to fix it?

    Connect it to itunes, and see if itunes recoginizes it.
    If not, then hold home and the power button to do a soft reset.
    If not, then you will need to go into recovery mode.
    To get into recovery mode you need to Hold Power + Home at the same time. After it goes blank, continue holding the home button while releasing your finger from the Power Button.
    You should be able to do it. Otherwise, you may need to send your Ipod in for repair.
    NOTE - Using recovery on your Ipod will erase all data and reset all settings.

    - 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.

  • Tried Resetting, Now all I see is the APPLE logo and loading

    Ok so here it is....I bought a used original iphone of a friend of mine. On my way home, I decided to reset the iphone to its original settings....now its been like 6 hours....and all I see is the apple logo, then it tries to load and it stays that way....then it blinks and the apple logo comes on again. Is there anything I can do??

    You should put the phone into DFU mode and restore it in iTunes.
    To put your phone in DFU mode:
    1. connect the phone to a computer with iTunes
    2. Hold the home button and sleep/wake button simultaneously for 8 seconds.
    3. Let go of the sleep/wake button and continue holding the home button
    4. If successful a dialog box will appear in iTunes that states that an iPod was detected in recovery mode. The phone's display will remain black.
    5. Click ok in the dialog box, then click restore
    After that the phone should be functional.
    I hope this helps.

  • I connected my apple tv2 to my dvi port and all I see is the apple logo

    I connected my Apple TV2 to my dvi port on my HDTV and all I see is the apple logo on the screen. I keep pushing menu on the apple remote and i see a white led turn on and off but the apple logo continues to be the only thing on the screen. I expect to see a menu as the apple manual indicates should appear on the screen. What's it gonna take for the menu to appear and the product to operate as expected?

    Use the search function here to look at DVI problems.  Even IF a HDMI --> DVI cable worked, there still won't be any sound.  Apple doesn't seem to want to make the ATV2 work with anything less than HDMI.  And it's pretty clear on their Apple store that the ONLY output is HDMI.  IF your HDTV has limited HDMI ports, you might want to thing about switching one of your other inputs.

  • My iphone doesnt want to start.all it shows is the apple icon.nothing more.i have tried holding the home button together with the lock button.what can i do .thanks

    my iphone 4 doesnt want to start . all it shows is the apple icon.i have tried holding the home button together with the lock button. nothing seems to work . please help.

    Plug the iPhone in with the Wall Charger. Then while plugged in do the Reset again, hold both Home and Power buttons until the iPhone Restarts. This usually begins to happen in less than 20 seconds time.
    If you this does not work you can try to Restore the Firmware on your iPhone. If you decide to do this, connect your iPhone to your computer with iTunes open. Hold both the Home and Power buttons until the iPhone is detected by iTunes in Recovery Mode, this takes about 20 seconds time. Restore your iPhone.
    If this does not work, you can try to Restore the Firmware on your iPhone in DFU Mode. Connect your iPhone to your computer with iTunes open. Hold both Home and Power buttons for exactly 10 seconds, release the Power Button and keep holding the Home Button until iTunes recognizes the iPhone in Recovery Mode, about 20 seconds more time. Restore the iPhone.
    If this does not work and you have Warranty or AppleCare Coverage take your iPhone to Apple for resolution of the problem.

    Hello, Taylorlocke. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    Here are a couple helpful troubleshooting articles that I would recommend going through.  They will walk you through troubleshooting this issue. 
    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.
