My I-phone 4S will not turn on after failed attempt to Restore

Dear Anyone who could possibly help me,
Today I opened up my I-tunes and plugged in my I-phone; I selected the "Restore I-phone" option because I wanted to restore my I-phone back to its original state as when I first recieved it. I selected "Restore" and began the process. After the play menu of Itunes said something along the lines, "Restoration Complete" and went on to load other things that are suppposed to follow a restoration, I was called away. Since my I-phone was not completely through doing the restoration and other loading, I did not shutdown my my computer. Instead I closed the top down shut - which now I regret because I think closing my computer shut it what started the entire mess.
When I returned to my I-phone and viewed my Itunes, it said something like, "Restoration Failed" and then two small screens came up telling me the restoration did not complete. So, I unplugged my I-phone and turned it off. Now every single time I turn it back on, the screen of my I-phone has the Itunes icon saying "itunes" under it, and there is an white arrow under the icon that is pointing to the icon itself. Under the arrow, there is the picture of my plug in, (the same plug in we use to sync music and other data from our Itunes to our I-phone.)
I have tried holding down the home button while continuing to press down the on button and this same screen pops up. Even when I try to plug it in, the only that happens is I hear the sound it makes when I plug in my I-phone, but it will not show up in my Itunes. Nothing has worked and I am all out of ideas.
What can I do to turn my I-phone back on so that I can hopefully restore my I-phone and reload my music, applications and other things?

    Do a reset, hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release.

  • My iPhone will not turn on after a yet another blue screen of death. Please help!

    As mentioned above, my phone will not turn on after a yet another blue screen of death. All of a sudden it turned off, and it wouldn't turn on for quite some time, even after I plugged it in the charger. It wasn't long after the screen turned on, but it only displayed a bright black. I decided to turn it on and off a few times. Nothing worked.
    I have also tried to call the phone from another one. It was as if the phone was simply off.

  • Light will not turn off after installing new cyano cartridge

    Light will not turn off after new cyano cartridge installed

    I suspect that the ones that say they will work with Windows 8 on the box.  If it does not say that, check the maunfacturer's website.  They eventually will have to give Windows 8 support for the new cards or loose out to the competitors cards.

  • My iphone will not turn on after I replaced the battery

    My iphone will not turn on after I replaced the battery, itunes logo comes up, but it will not connect and does not reset! does anyone know what I can do?

    Who replaced the battery, you, Apple or an Authorized Apple Service Provider? If you did it yourself, then you could have done anything to disable it. It also voids any warranty and post-warranty support from Apple and the forum. You are on your own. If Apple or an Authorized Apple Service Provider replaced it, then take it back and have them check it.
    The iPhone does not have a user replaceable battery, or user serviceable parts. It is meant to only be serviced by Apple, or authorized service providers.

  • My phone will not turn on after downloading ios 8

    I updated to the IOS 8 this morning and now my phone will not turn on, it just keeps directing me to itunes and every time I try there is some kind of error, what do I need to do?

    If the screen is showing you the USB wire pointing to iTunes it is telling you it has entered the recovery mode, and you have to use the instructions in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 to connect to iTunes.  In summary:

    Start with your computer open to iTunes and the USB cable plugged into the computer but not to the iPhone. Hold down the Home button on the iPhone as you connect the USB cable to the iPhone. Continue holding down the Home button until both screens acknowledge the connection, then release.
    This will allow you to restore the iPhone, which is unfortunately likely needed.
    The process may take 30 minutes, so have time.
    Good luck

    I just downloaded ios5.1 to my iphone 4 and restored my previous information and now my phone will not turn on.

    You don't download IOS onto your iPhone.
    Use computer iTunes with your iPhone connected and selected.
    Select Summary tab in iTunes and click the Check for Update button.

    Try DFU Mode Restore. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB cable. Hold both Home and Power button, after exactly 10 seconds release the Power Button, keep holding the Home button until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, usually about 20 seconds time.
