  • I shattered my phone and does not turn on I have apple care. How much would it be to replace it?

    I have an iphone 4s and I dropped it down some steps and its completely shattered and does not turn on. I have apple care. Does apple care last for 2 years? I replaced it once before with no charge. Would I be charged this time? Please help.

    You have AppleCare or AppleCare+. If you have regular AppleCare, accidental damage is not covered. It will cost you $199 for a replacement. If you have AppleCare+, and you're within 2 years of buying the original phone, then you can have it replace for (I believe) $49. That was the quoted replacement price when AppleCare+ first started being sold.

    Hi kamalkumar,
    I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with your iPhone. 
    The article below will provide some troubleshooting steps for this issue:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    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 15 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. 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.
    I hope this information helps ....
    Have a great day!
    - Judy

  • TS2662 changed the batteries on wireless keyboard and does not turn on now

    Changed the batteries on wireless keyboard and now it does not turn on, is there a trick to this?

    No trick.  Be sure the batteries are inserted correctly and that the cover is tight.
    Try different batteries.
    Reset the SMC if it still does not work.

  • Macbook Pro died and will not turn on any longer

    I am hoping someone can give me some insight into what has happened with my Macbook.
    I have a 2008 17" Macbook Pro A1261. The other day I was working on battery life and noticed it was about to drain, so I plugged in my adapter. The adapter was not lighting up and I assumed that it had just stopped working. My Macbook is completely dead at this point. I bought another adapter (the newer L shaped ones) and when I plug it in the light comes on green but does not change colour to amber. When I try to power my mac on it does not come on with the battery in or removed.
    I have tried an SMC reset, holding shift, etc. and nothing has worked thus far. My issue is that how can my macbook all of a sudden just "die" when it was working PERFECTLY fine before the battery drained? I assumed buying another adapter would fix the issue.
    Could this simply be because my macbook does not yet have the firmware installed for the new L shaped adapter? If so what steps can I take to install the firmware? I know it is not the magsafe adapter because I have tried two others with no luck.
    Please help!

    Hi all, I finally took my macbook into the apple store and met with a genius. I am really not satisfied at all and I will explain why.
    My macbook was working fine until the battery died, it was powered on and functioning etc. and it was just my cord that had the issue (until the battery drained completely). I have seen a lot of posts about macbooks just not turning on until the battery that has died is charged and inserted.
    The day of the appointment I took another look at my macbook after leaving it idle for a few days. At this point, the battery has actually expanded and broke out of it's original case. This happened while the battery was drained and the macbook was off and unplugged. From what I have read, this happens all the time with these batteries and there was a program put in place to replace them at one point?
    When I got to the apple store, I explained my situation (cord did not light/charge macbook, then macbook battery drains and now it will not turn on) and the tech basically told me that it is for sure the top case and the power button just "doesn't work", so I will need to spend $200 to replace the top case and then they "can go from there". He said it is either the top case or the logic board. I asked him why the logic board just mysteriously "broke" when the battery died. He told me that "these things start in one spot and spread like a cold". I am really disappointed in the service I got from them, he literally asked three questions and then said it is the top case and the logic board and that I need to buy both. It didn't give me any more confidence that this guy was 25 years old wearing a fitted hat at work (like a NY hat or something, and I hate to stereotype but he lived up to it unfortunately).
    Also, he made it seem like I needed to pay for the top case first before they would spend any time even looking at my macbook to see what is wrong.. is this correct? You need to purchase a part or they won't open your computer?
    Disappointment aside, I believe my next step is to obtain a fully charged battery and use that to start my macbook. I will post what happens if I can find a charged battery. Thanks everyone for the suggestions.

  • Solved: Display blanks out and does not turn on untill reboot.

    Hardware:
    ======
    Intel i7 prossesor (x86)
    Asus motherboard with UEIF
    ATI radeon 5770 graphics
    Partitioneng:
    ========
    sda: windows file system partitions

    sdc: windows bootloader and os
    Software:
    =====
    Regular instal acording to Beginers guid and ATI drivers page.
    Graphics drivers are the big free ATI driver package.
    Problem.
    ======
    After a random amount of time, usialy a fiew minutes after the computer starts, the display turns of.
    This happens in the BIOS menu, the live arch tty, arch tty and gnome.
    This does not happen if i boot into windows or a Ubutu live cd.
    When the display blanks out in a tty i am still able to interact with it,  eg: if i blindly type 'reboot[enter]' the stystem reboots, ore 'man[space]ls[up][up]' computer peeps.
    When the display blanks out in Gnome the keyboard gets disabled aswell.
    I am able to ssh into the computer if it blanks out while i am runnig arch.
    When the computer blanks out nothing but a hardware shutdown and restart seams to turn on the dispaly again. doing a reboot comand (while blanked out) thorugh ssh causes the computer to reboot but the display is still disabled after the reboot.
    Atempted fix
    =======
    attempted to run in bash:
      xset s off
      xset -dpms
    no aperent efect.
    Coment
    ======
    It might be some motherbord fiture that blanks out the screen, what is curious though is thet Windows and Ubuntu never blankout, not even temporarely. So there must be somthing that can be done from the OS side.
    Another weird thing is that I would exect it to blank out when the user input is inactive if it was a pawer saving fiture, but it usialy blanks out while i am typing.
    I am grateful for all the help I can get.

  • I spilled OJ on my Ipad, i had it in rice for 48 hours and does not turn on, is it a goner?

    I bought an IPad mini second hand, had it for a month and I spilled OJ on it, had it sitting in rice for 48hours and now it will not turn on, anything I can do, or is it a goner?
    I wish it had been water

    Hello chelsealee3,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Before determining if there is a hardware issue with the iPad after spilling liquid on it, I'd like you to please follow the troubleshooting in the article below.

  • Record enable light flashes and does not turn red

    I have two input mics with which I wish to simultaneously record into garageband 10. I have selected the "record enable" button in the track header, and I have allocated each audio input to the appropriate audio interface channel. The record enable buttons only flash at me and do not allow for multitrack recording--that is, unless I have selected a single specific track which then allows the track to be armed for recording.

    it always helps to give us complete information; to what did you set each track?
    VeeRonna wrote:

    the flashing is normal. what happens when you record enable 2 tracks and begin recording?
    i saw in another thread that you watched the multiple interfaces vid, perhaps the multi-track recording entry would be more appropriate:

  • My macbook pro is frozen - does not turned on - stuck on the opening screen (apple logo). thoughts?

    any ideas how to get it going?

    Take each of these steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    The first step in dealing with a boot failure is to secure your data. If you want to preserve the contents of the startup drive, and you don't already have at least one current backup, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data that has changed since your last backup, you can skip this step.
    There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to boot. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
    a. Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at the startup chime, or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in the support article linked below, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.”
    How to back up and restore your files
    b. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, boot the non-working Mac in target disk mode by holding down the key combination command-T at the startup chime. Connect the two Macs with a FireWire or Thunderbolt cable. The internal drive of the machine running in target mode will mount as an external drive on the other machine. Copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
    How to use and troubleshoot FireWire target disk mode
    c. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.
    Step 2
    Press and hold the power button until the power shuts off. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed to boot, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Use a different keyboard and/or mouse, if those devices are wired. If you can boot now, one of the devices you disconnected, or a combination of them, is causing the problem. Finding out which one is a process of elimination.
    Before reconnecting an external storage device, make sure that your internal boot volume is selected in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.
    Step 3
    Boot in safe mode.* The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
    When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Post for further instructions.
    When you boot in safe mode, it's normal to see a dark gray progress bar on a light gray background. If the progress bar gets stuck for more than a few minutes, or if the system shuts down automatically while the progress bar is displayed, your boot volume is damaged and the drive is probably malfunctioning. In that case, go to step 5.
    If you can boot and log in now, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.) If the boot process hangs again, the problem is likely caused by a third-party system modification that you installed. Post for further instructions.
    Step 4
    Sometimes a boot failure can be resolved by resetting the NVRAM and PRAM.
    Step 5
    Launch Disk Utility in Recovery mode (see above for instructions.) Select your startup volume, then run Repair Disk. If any problems are found, repeat until clear. If Disk Utility reports that the volume can't be repaired, the drive has malfunctioned and should be replaced. You might choose to tolerate one such malfunction in the life of the drive. In that case, erase the volume and restore from a backup. If the same thing ever happens again, replace the drive immediately.
    This is one of the rare situations in which you should also run Repair Permissions, ignoring the false warnings it produces. Look for the line "Permissions repaired successfully" at the end of the output. Then reboot as usual.
    Step 6
    Boot into Recovery again. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, follow the prompts to reinstall the OS. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
    Note: You need an always-on Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection to the Internet to use Recovery. It won’t work with USB or PPPoE modems, or with networks that require any kind of authentication other than a WPA or WPA2 Personal password.
    Step 7
    Repeat step 6, but this time erase the boot volume in Disk Utility before installing. The system should automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant. Follow the prompts to transfer your data from a backup.
    Step 8
    If you get this far, you're probably dealing with a hardware fault. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested.
    Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to an empty drive from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.
    *An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.

  • What i have to do when my iphone has turned off and i does not turn on

    my iphone has turned off by itself and and does not turn on ??? what i should to do ??

    First plug it in to charge for 10 - 15 minutes and see if it will turn on.
    Then do a reset, hold down both the home and sleep/power buttons at the same time.  Continue to hold them down until the apple logo appears.  This could take as long as 3 - 5 minutes.  Normally it takes about 15 - 20 seconds, but if there is something goining on inside your phone it will take longer.
