Hi leedslad,
Welcome to BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Is your BlackBerry detected by your Desktop Manager when connected?
If so, try backing it up and clean reloading the device software. A backup is recommended as this will remove any data from the device. http://bbry.lv/bpv7DT If it doesn't connect, try forcing a clean reload of the software using this article. http://bbry.lv/dl7hmf

  • And wont turn on at all. please help thanks.

    my ipod touch wont charge when i plug it into the computer or any source off power and wont turn on at all. anyone got any ideas of how i could maybe fix it. thanks.

    Have you tried using a different connecting cable?  Sometimes those or their connectors fail.
    If that doesn't work, have you tried connecting to iTunes and see if it is recognized?
    If not, might be time to visit an Apple Retail genius bar and have it checked out.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - 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.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • MACBOOK WONT TURN ON!! PLEASE HELP!

    MacBook which is supplied through my school and wont turn on at all, it justs shows the grey screen and the beachball spinning around for hours. It is and was fully charged. I took it to the IT guys and they said it can not be backed up at all due to it not turning on, but I heard they can take the main "motherboard" out and display it on another screen so that I can then back up all my photos and music? ALL photos from overseas and from the last TWO years are on there and I need it to be backed up!! Any suggestions on what I can do or WHERE I can take it? I live in Australia.

    See this Apple note on steps to take when faced with a grey screen on boot.
    Taking the logic board out to hook up to another system has nothing to do with the data stored on your hard drive.  It's possible they were talking about removing the hard drive to hook up to another system.
    After you get past this issue, consider buying an external hard drive and backing up your system on a regular basis.

  • My ipod wont turn off!! please help

    i did nothing to my ipod to make it not turn off. i was listing to it for a while and when i decided i was done using it i wanted to turn it off and it wouldnt work. i can go from one song to the next with no problem and i can pause it and all that good stuff but it just wont turn off. i tried letting it cut off by itself( put ot on pause and wait for a couple of min) but its been almost a half an hour and it still hasnt turn off. please help me!!!

    Have had the same problem for a couple of weeks. Have tried the 5 Rs and other tips found on this site. Nothing seems to work. Only thing that does work is if ipod is connected via USB and itunes is running. It can then be turned off and will remain turned off when you disconnect your ipod. But this isnt much help if you have to connect to your computer each time you want to turn your ipod off! Still waiting for a complete answer I'm afraid ......

  • Ipad Randomly Died and Wont turn back on! Please Help! What Do I Do?? :(

    Hey people, earlier on i was just generally using my ipad, facebooking and stuff, it was on around half battery, i looked at my tv for a minute, looked back at my ipad, and it was dead! it will not turn back on, no buttons do anything, plugging into itunes does nothing, and charging does nothing!! it has never been dropped, or harmed in any way at all, and im really scared, please help me! any suggestions will be strongly appreciated! thanks

    A system Reset cures many ills and takes but a minute to perform:
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.
    A Reset does NOT delete apps, photos, movies, music or any other data. A Reset does NOT delete any settings for email, network access, etc.
    Also, you might wish to download the 4.2 User Guide. Pay special attention to page 170.

    Hello there, John.
    The following Knowledge Base article provides some good steps for troubleshooting the issue you're describing:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
    Display shows a white screen
    After finishing a call the display remains black
    If the iPhone is in a protective case, remove it from the case.
    If there is a protective or antiglare film on the display, remove the film.
    Clean the screen, especially around the receiver, with a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth.
    Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.

  • HT201210 iphone 4 wont turn on at all.

    my iphone 4 switched itself off and now it wont turn on at all any help please !!!!

    Hi there coleeva!
    I have an article for you that can help walk you through the troubleshooting steps for the issue you are seeing with your iPhone. The article can be found right here:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
    This article has information on a plethora of issues regarding your iPhone, so for your convenience, I will highlight the relevant part to your issue below:
    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 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.
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
    Cheers,
    Braden

    my ipod was fine and then when i turned it on it had an ipod with a sad face with an exclamation point but now it wont turn on at all! please give me any suggestiions . thanks so much!

    See these troubleshooting articles.
    My iPod is sad.
    What does this picture on my iPod mean?
    PC doesn't recognize the iPod is connected.
    When restoring the iPod, it's useful to put into disk mode first.
    Putting iPod into disk mode.
    The sad iPod icon is usually indicative of a hard drive problem, and if none of the above help, it may need service.
