  • My iPhone 5s has just shut off and won't turn back on. Please help?

    I was just chatting on a app and the phone just froze, went to a white screen with the apple trade mark. Then it completely shut off and wouldn't turn back on. I tried charging it and it still won't turn back on.

    Thanks for the advice but I've tried this it hasn't worked. I've held down both buttons together for more than a minute. Do I have to hold them down longer than this?

    Hi Bel Fiore,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    See this article for the steps to restart and reset your iPhone:

    Display has no backlight or dark screen
    Toggle the ringer switch to see if the unit vibrates. If it does, it could be that iPhone is getting power, but is not displaying any image.
    Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
    While connected to the iPhone charger, try to reset the iPhone.
    If the low-battery screen appears, charge the iPhone.

    I'm experiencing the same issue. It's one thing to have to re-power up but to not be able to do so without plugging in the charger when the battery is substantially full, is a real drag.

  • My iphone just shut off and now wont turn back on.. is stuck on the apple screen.

    my iphone 3gs is locked up...  just shut off in the middle of a text...  tries to turn it back on and it wont go past the aple screen??

    Try resetting your iPhone by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
    If you can't do that, try Recovery Mode... http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • My iPhone just shut off and won't turn back on

    My iPhone 4 just automatically shut off and now will not turn back on. I have tried plugging it to the wall and into my laptop but nothing is working.

    Connect iPhone to the Wall Charger for 10 minutes, it may turn ON itself. If still nothing, keep on charger and Reset, hold both home and power buttons for about 20 seconds until the iPhone begins to start.

    Hi, jojo252.
    Thank you for the question.  First, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.  If the issue persists, see the article below as it will help you troubleshoot this issue.

    It probably overheated and shut down. Hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons until an Apple logo appears. This will take 10 to 15 seconds of holding both buttons.
