IPhone wont turn on, cannot be restored..

Hi! My iPhone has an problem. It wont turn on (shows apple logo, then freezes and after that it restarts the same thing over and over again..) and i cannot restore or update it, because computer wont find it because its not turned on! And it doesnt even recharge while it does that apple logo thing. It wont stay turned off, it comes with apple logo everytime i turn it off. And then it frozes, and wont recharge. help me, please!

i had that once, it took me ages to figure out what was wrong but i finally did.
i held down the power button and the home button and release them both as soon as the screen goes black otherwise it will turn on again.
Plug it into the computer. If it connects, great! If it doesnt, hold down the home button until you hear the usb conect noise into the computer, which usually takes about 10seconds.
Then update itunes to the latest version, then the software. Then create backup by right clicking your iPhone's name on the side.
Then restore. If it comes up with an error then do the same thing again but restore it on another computer.
Hope this fixes your phone

    Hi Monzairita,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your iPhone only powers on when connected to a dock, and shows the "connect to iTunes" screen, start with these troubleshooting steps:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    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 LCIs and 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.
    Best Regards,
    Jeremy

    my ipod touch wont turn on ive tried restoring it but every time i do it just says its waiting for the ipod to respond. meanwhile my ipod is no longer a black screen but the apple logo with a loading bar underneath that after leaving for 8 hours hasnt moved.

    Try:
    - Another cable
    - Another USB port
    - Reboot the computer
    - 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 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 WONT TURN ON TODAY????

    All of a sudden today out of the blue my Iphone wont turn on?
    Anyone else ever have this problem?
    Any ideas why or what i should try?
    Help please
    Rob

    First try a reset:
    Press the sleep/wake button & home button at the same time, keep pressing until you(hopefully) see the Apple logo, then release. Ignore the slide to power off, should it appear.
    If that doesn't work:
    See if you can force the phone into recovery mode:
    Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, itunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.

    yeah.
    I guess everybody understood it after the first sentence.
    it seems you don't really want to solve your problem.
    you should tell us when it was working last time, what were you doing on it/with it. For now, you just have a problem and nobody to solve it.
