HT1212 my iphone is frozen on the lock screen and will not let me enter my passcode, I have held the home button and power button for up to 1 minute and plugged it up to itunes because its locked it wont work? i need help

i have connected it to itunes like i was told to do and it wont do anything because its locked with a passcode and its frozen on the lock screen and will not let me enter myt passcode and after a while it just shuts off, it has been doing this for almost 48 hours. I was told to hold the home button and power button to shut it down and that I could then restart it and it would work... Nothing has helped, What can I try???

Reset the device by pressing and holding the home and power buttons for 15-20 seconds until the white Apple logo appears.
If that does not resolve, restore the device via iTunes on the computer.
If all else fails, take the device to Apple (or whomever provides support in your country) for evaluation and possible replacement.

Boot loop and power button broken

Hi,
I have a new problem with my iPhone 4 8go
Tonight the battery died so when I woke up I plugged it in like I normally do, but after the usual white apple when the phone turns on, I see my lock screen for 2 seconds before the phone shuts down automatically.
If I keep it plugged it stays in a boot loop and just stay off if I unplug it.
I've done my research about that issue, which seems common, and it looks like going in DFSU mode and restore from backup might work.
Problem is, my power button is broken and doesn't work anymore, so I can't do the manipulation with home and power button.
I have downloaded redsnow to try to go in DFSU mode without button but due to the boot loop, the phone is not detected in iTunes...
Is there any way to force the phone in DFSU mode or anything else I can do?

That is a software to hack your phone. You can't get any assistant here per the term of use of this forum.

My ipad wont power on, its fully charged. Does anybody know how to unlock the ipad by the home button and power button?

please help

You may have to hold the home and power buttons down for more than 10 to 15 seconds. That is the normal amount of time it should take to do a soft-reset on an iDevice. But I have had a similar problem and found that if I held the buttons down for a couple of minutes my device (iPhone, iPad, iPod) would finally unlock and start up. You just have to be patient and hold the buttons down. You might also try doing this with your iPad plugged into the charger.

My ipod 3g home and power button wont work!

Last night I woke up to find my ipod touch on. IT was probably on for 4-5 hours. I pressed the sleep button but nothing happened. I pressed it over and over but no luck. So I tried press the home and power button on at the same time but nothing happened. Eventually it went to sleep and restarted and the home button worked but not the sleep. I restarted it again and now both of the buttons dont work. I restarted it at least 4 times. Eventually the home but will work but it lags about 40 seconds. During the night my ipod would shut off, shut on, picture, shutt off shut on, picture etc etc. I dont think the buttons are totally busted and I feel like I can fix it. I haven't tried putting it into itunes yet. Someone please help!

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

Firstly, what is the source of the 10.6.4 disc? Is it the original installation disc for your MacBook, or one 'borrowed' from another computer?
It isn't the retail version, because that's 10.6.3.
Assuming it's the correct disc (i.e. the one that shipped with your Mac), you need to boot from it again.
OK the language page.
From the installer screen, ignore the continue button, go to the menu bar and choose Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
In DU, select your internal drive in the sidebar (the top item with the makers name and serial no.).
Run Repair Disk. If that comes up as disk OK, click the partition tab. Select the partiton from the drop-down above the graphic; 1 partiton is all you need.
Go to the options button and ensure that the partition scheme is GUID and the file system to Mac OS Extended (Journalled). Name the partiton (usually Macintosh HD), click Apply.
When the Macintosh HD volume appears below the drive name, quit DU and see if you can then install.
If the screen after the language screen doesn't show the menu bar, it may be necessary to use another Mac to do the job with the MB in Firewire Target Disc Mode. If it won't boot in TDM, or the MB doesn't have FireWire then it's getting very difficult.

G60 power led, charge led, and power button led flash continually

I have a G60 laptop that will not charge the battery or start up and when I plug the power into it the power led, charge led, and power button led flash continually
If I press the power button I here the DVD drive make a noise and a fan comes on and goes right off.

Hi
Probably a hardware issue, may have to contact local technical assistance or HP
Is the system able to boot up with AC supply only with battery removed?
Try keeping it charged for 3 hours or so with battery & AC adapter plugged in the lap, and try powering it on again after that.

9300 Wont boot. Power comes on but no boot

So I got home from thanksgiving with family to see my computer was turned off. I hit the power button, and all the fans came on as normal, but no picture. Thought maybe it was just a monitor issue, I did a hard reset, (power button hold) and then restarted, It got to the boot screen, then shut off again. I pushed the power again, and still, fans came on, lights came on, but monitors dont come on.
Basicilly, what it does now is, hit the power button, fans come on, DVD drive opens/closes/spins, but nothing else, power button does not light, and power button does not react to hard reset (long press)
Things I have tried:
Removed RAM and treid to start, no change, no beeps
Removed Video Card and tried to start, no change, no beeps
Removed Battery
Switched jumper
30second power button hold
Plugged strait into wall (no Surge protector in between)
It was plugged into a surge protector when it failed, nothing else in the surge protector failed (other computer, monitor, modem, etc)
I am no computer expert, I know just enough to get myself in trouble, and most of the things I have tried is from other forums ideas.
Please help!
Thank you

Please identify your desktop PC with the p/n (product name/number).
Once you identify your PC I will link to a service & maintence guide and provide an image that shows where and how to clear the CMOS. When BIOS ROM file has issues it is often the case that clearing the CMOS brings the PC back to life.
You said "Switched jumper". What exactly are you referring to?
If you meant cleared CMOS, did you remove the CMOS battery ( quarter sized and marked CR2032) when you did it?
Kind regards,

Okay, try this:
- connect all case wiring for front-panel stuff to the mainboard or short the two pins for Power-On on the mainboard's pin header with a screwdriver.
If that does not work:
- take the board out of the case to test it on a non-conducting surface in barebone configuration (CPU, video card, all power connectors, one stick of RAM) and repeat the step above
If that does not change anything:
- test with different PSU
Case closed, i put the motherboard outside the case and worked like a charm, seems like a bad conduct between the motherboard and the case, thanks for all the answers guys, it was the only thing i didnt examined and thankfully it was it and not some DOA board. Thanks again.

How do I stop an app from waiting? I have tried to reboot by holding the home key and power button to power down. Also, I have tried to sync the apps from my laptop with no success. Can you help? Thanks.

How do I stop an app from waiting? I have tried to reboot by holding the home key and power button to power down. The app is still grayed out and waiting so it cannot be deleted. Also, I have tried to sync the apps from my laptop and tried downloading new appswith no success. Can you help? Thanks

If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.

Another thing to try - Turn the iPad Off & then back ON.
If that doesn't work:
• Log out of your iTunes store account. Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
• Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
• After restart, the Waiting should be gone.

IPhone4 will not turn on. Tried reboot with home button and power button, and tried with sim out. Left on charge for an hour and nothing. Tried plugged into PC and nothing. Tried holding any and all buttons one at a time and plugging into PC and nothing.

Hi,
This is for my wife's iPhone 4
She was on a call and went to end the call and the phone just turned off.
Left it on charge for an hour or so and nothing.
I tried the old reboot (home button and power button) and nothing
I tired with the sim out.
And with it plugged into a PC, opened iTunes and it didn't recognize that the phone was plugged in.
I tried my PC and nothing.
My phone charges and connects to both PC's
Tried holding the home button then plugging into PC
Tried holding the power button then into PC
I've now been trying different combinations for about 3 hours and now I'm all out of ideas.... :(
Please please can some help before Tuesday when I will have to find someone to repair it.
Thanks,

Sounds like faulty battery. Make Genius reservation and take to Apple for quick (minutes) free battery diagnostic testing. If you have Warranty or AppleCare the problem will be covered.
