Hi, my iphone 4 home screen keeps flashing on and off repeatedly. if I'm using my phone or in an app it will just go black then light up to the home screen and it does this over and over. Then the power off option will pop up. what should i do

Hi my iphone 4 home screen keeps flashing on and off repeatdly. I will beonmy phone or in an app and it will go to a black screen and then light up to the home screen. Then the power off option will pop up. I have tried letting it die and recharging it and powering it off neither worked. Does any one have an idea on what this could be or what I can do?

If the Slide to Power Off option is coming up, that suggests your power button isn't working correctly and is sticking.
Best thing to do is bring the phone to an Apple store (make an appointment first) and have a Genius take a look at it.

What would cause iPad to go through power up but turn off once it hits the home screen?

I put my iPad on charge last night. This morning it will not power up. If I plug it into the charger the battery symbol comes up like it needs a charge. After a few minutes the Apple logo comes up, then it flips to the home screen but then immediately turns off again. It will cycle this way as long as I keep it plugged in. Any suggestions?

thanks for the reply but I could never get it to work. If I plug the charger in eventually the apple logo will come up but as soon as it goes to the next screen, everything shuts down. Like the battery is dead. But it's plugged into the charger.

My iphone 4 locked up for several hours. i then tried to reset by holding down the home button and power button at the same time for 10 seconds and then the home button for 10 seconds. it is now completely black. what do i do? couldnt restore it in iTunes

My iphone 4 locked up for several hours. i then tried to reset by holding down the home button and power button at the same time for 10 seconds and then the home button for 10 seconds. it is now completely black. what do i do? couldnt restore it in iTunes. Has anyone had this problem? Help!

Same thing happened to me today. I wasn't even using the phone for the past 6 hours and suddenly I can't connect to the internet, none of my internet apps would work - nothing. I tried to call AT&T from the iphone and it locked up - couldn't turn it off, change to the home screen - nada - brick.
Did the Home/Power button thing and that worked but this I've only had this phone for about 4 weeks and it's locked up more times than my 3GS did the whole two years I had it! Ridiculous

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.

2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.

How much data is being backed-up from each Mac? (see what's shown for Estimated size of full backup under the exclusions box in Time Machine Prefs > Options).
Is there any other data on your Time Capsule, besides the backups?
Most likely, there just isn't room. Time Machine may be trying to do a very large (or full) backup of one or both Macs, and can't. Since it won't ever delete the most recent backup, there has to be enough room for one full backup plus whatever it's trying to back up now, plus 20% (for workspace).
Also see #C4 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting for more details.

TS3274 I have iPad 1 and while surfing the web, checking facebook the scene blacks out then goes to the home screen. Why?

While surfing the web, checking Facebook my screen goes black and the home screen comes up. What is the problem?

The apps are crashing for some reason - maybe an app conflict, a corrupt setting, low memory ....
try a few basic things and see if they help.
Quit all apps completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Keep swiping in the task bar to get to all of the apps. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Or try this .... Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
This may help as well. Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data. Restart the iPad. Try again.

Has anyone's IPOD TOUCH automatically turn black and go back to the home screen when you select an APP?

yes and i have actually tried turning off my ipod and leaving it off for a while then come back to it later and it still wont let me get into my apps. the only apps i have access to is my music, safari, email, photos, and basically all the apps that was already on here. but like my photoshop, temple run and apps that i downloaded from the app store will not open for anything. i must say though that after i moved out of my parents house and lived with my aunt and uncle and my mom brought the rest of my belongings to their house for me, they deleted my itunes account beacuse now i cant log in to itunes anymore and also i havent updated it in a while but still, i've never had this problem before even tho i havent updated it and got my account deleted, so why am i all of a sudden having this problem with my ipod touch??????
