Iphone wont turn on after iOS8 update

I was updating my Iphone with iOS8 update through iTunes on my laptop it went all through until the end i unplugged my phone as it wasn't doing anything then it come up with iTunes logo and charger logo and now it wont turn on at all, I've tried holding the top button and home button and charging it, nothing is working! help me!

I eventually got it to work by constantly, over and over again,  plugging the iPhone into the mac with my finger on the home butting until one time it recognised it then I went through the factory reset setting for it to just drop off the iTunes pane and jam on me again. I did the same thing (I know the definition of insanity is trying the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result!) again until it recognised it again and thankfully this time it went through all the factory reset process and updated, losing unsaved videos of my sons birthday party the day before in the process ( I thought they got saved to the cloud too, but apparently they don't!) so thats how I fixed it.........that was last Thursday......Today I thought it would be safe enough to update my iPad and guess what? I have been sat here now for an hour, same thing, the update came down, the iPad was prepared for update, the screen went on to the logo screen the bar got to 100, the device disappeared from the iTunes pane and the iPad is stuck in the restart screen!!!! Its been that way for an hour now!!! I am not a happy bunny!!! now I will swiftly be going over to the iPad forums to see if there is any info there about it or should I just try what I did with the phone???? Either way this *****!

    my iphone 6 wont turn on after i updated it and it doesn't work to restore it in itunes. what should i do?

    Hello ole-gunnar,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    If your iPhone is unresponsive after updating your iOS version, then I'd like you to please follow the troubleshooting below.
    If you see a black screen
    You might need to charge your device before it can turn on. Plug in your device and let it charge for at least 10 minutes (20 minutes for iPad), then try turning it on. 
    You should see a battery icon while your device is charging. If you continue to see a black screen, reset your device. If your device doesn't respond when you press buttons
    Your device might not return to the Home screen when you press the Home button, wake from sleep when you press the Sleep/Wake button, slide to unlock or power off, or it might appear frozen. Try these steps:
    Restart your device.
    If it still doesn't respond, or if it doesn't turn back on, reset your device.
    If your device gets stuck during startup
    When starting up, you might see the Apple logo or a red or blue screen for a long time, or your device might restart again. Try these steps:
    Make sure that you have iTunes 12 or later on your computer.
    Put your device in recovery mode.
    When you get the option to restore or update, select Update. This will reinstall iOS without erasing your data.
    Get more help
    If you still need help after trying the steps above, contact Apple Support. 
    If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
    Cheers,
    Alex H.

  • HT204204 my apple ipad wont turn on after i updating software

    sir,my apple ipad (16gb) wont turn on after i updating software correctly.so still this off position and cant any work.please help me

    You took a backup on your computer's iTunes prior to starting the backup, or you have a recent backup ? And you have all of the apps that you had on the iPad in the Apps part of your computer's iTunes library - none of your iTunes downloads are included in a backup (that contains apps settings and contents), the restore will look to pick them up from your iTunes library.
    To restore select the iPad on your computer's iTunes and either do File > Devices > Restore From Backup
    Or on its Summary tab in iTunes click the 'Restore Backup' button

  • 4s wont turn on after OS update 8.1.3.

    4s wont turn on after OS 8.1.3 update. attempted restart several times with no success. fully charged battery & plugged I at time of update. iTunes doesn't recognize the device since it wont turn on so I cant even do a system restore. no problems previously.
    any suggestions? thanks in advance.

    The message is correct. Once you see the iTunes logo and the USB cord your iPhone must be restored. It has already lost all data stored on it. You can recover your data from a recent backup if you have one. You can recover all purchased music and apps without the backup. When I updated our 2 iPhones, I backed each of them up to iTunes before updating just in case. I recommend that you do this before you do any future updates.

  • My Ipod wont turn on after i update it!!!!

    I was was updating my ipod to th ios 5 or 6 nd it ran out of battery. Now it wont turn on!!! 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.

  • ?iphone 4  wont turn on after ios update

    Hi folks, I updated my iphone 4 with the ios5 or 6 update, and when it powercycled it would not turn back on.
    when I try to turn it on, i get the standard apple icon, then a usb symbol will appear with an arrow above it, and the i tunes symbol above that.
    Its obviously telling me to connect to itunes, but when i do, the device registers, but only prompts me to reset the phone. After doing that, same prob...HELP

    If connecting in recovery mode, as explained in this article did not help to restore the phone again, you'll have to get it checked by visiting an Authorized Apple Service Provider or Apple Store next to your place or by contacting Apple Support.

    i was updating my iphone 4 to the new update the ios 6. i didn't think the update would take as long as it would i had been waiting an hour and it still was not finished. I needed to call people so i figured i would turn it off and contiune with it later. However, instead of turning back on it just shows the apple logo for a few seconds and then goes black. It keeps doing this until i press the home and power button together to get it shut off. I have tried plugging it in a putting it back to factory settings, holding the power button and home key together, charging it and nothing is happening. It doesn't even get reconigze when i plug it into the comupter. If you have any suggestions or something similar has happened please help me. I would go to verizon wireless or something but i am a college studnet where nothing is around for miles and i don't have a car so.... please help i need this to get in touch with people.
