Hi handc15,
If your iPhone has shut down unexpectedly and will not start up again, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article - 
If your iOS device restarts, displays the Apple logo, or powers off while you're using it - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • My ipod is fully charged and just switched off and wont turn on. what do i do?

    So my ipod just shut off randomly and wont turn back on. it has a full battery and wont even go to the lock screen. its a ipod 5 and idk what to do. please help.

    If the reset is not successful try the remaining items of:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - 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.
    - Try another cable                                                       
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    It's more than likely broken, a part has failed. You need to take it to a Apple store Genius Bar to be checked out and fixed. Or just buy a new Mac as to fix the one you have might be cost prohibitive. Especially if your warranty has expired.

  • IPhone randomly shuts off and wont turn back on again.

    Hi,
    I have a problem with my iPhone 4. It randomly shuts off and wont turn on again until i plug in the charger. This happens at least once a day and is extremly annoying and i can´t really use it anymore. I´ve tried a reset but with no results. Please help me out, thanks

    Hello again,
    I know there been a while, but I just need to tell you this
    I tried a restore and it didn´t work out. The same problem just continued and i started using and old phone instead. A couple of days ago I read something about ios6, and I thought: Why not try it on my iPhone that I don´t use? I installed ios6 and since then the phone have worked perfectly, except for one single hangup but then it was just to restart it. Ios6 beta 2 is actully really stable. I mean, now at least it´s a fully functional phone.

  • My ipod nano was working fine until i uploaded some new tunes today.  It sync properly and once disconnected it just switched off and would not even turn on.  I have put it on charge for a few hours but nothing happens, infact the charger is getting hot.

    The backlight burned out from getting it wet. You will have to replace the screen at a 3rd party shop, buy a screen and replace it yourself, or make a Genius Bar appointment at your nearest Apple Store and do an out-of-warranty replacement for $199 USD.

    ronicr76,
    First it would be helpful if you post the exact model, year and OS version you have.
    > The LED light is on but only when the laptop is closed<
    So that light is the sleep indicator and tells us that the laptop is going to sleep when you close the lid. That would be normal behavior so the machine is still working. Possibly you're experiencing a backlight failure. With the machine supposedly "on" use a flashlight to carefully examine the screen. Do you see the desktop? Yes? machine is still running and something is wrong with the backlight.
    You should immediately backup your computer or at the very least pull vital files off. With the computer hooked to another Mac (The way this is done depends on the exact MacBook, E.g.FireWire 800 to FireWire 800.) Then you restart the computer and hold the "t" key down. This puts your MacBook into "target mode":
    How to use and troubleshoot FireWire target disk mode
    Once your files are off try an SMC reset:
    Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    Are you able to get the backlight back on by opening and closing the display? Yes? Broken backlight cable refer to qualified service place. Even if it doesn't come on and you can still see the desktop with a flashlight it is still probably the backlight. Could be the a backlight problem also.

    my iphone 4s was working fine then it just turned off and wont turn back on but my home button dosent work what do i do?

    Apart from the battery being dead (make sure by plugging into a power source for 15 minutes), hold the sleep/wake button and home button together for 10 - 20 seconds or until the apple logo appears.

    My wife's iphone4 turned off spontaneously after she sent a message and it had 95% battery. Nothing we did turned the phone back on. After searching the net and looking at this forum I held the sleep/wake button and the home button together and it turned on... Amazing. Thanks to all those who have posted. Is this a recurrent issue though? Would definitely like to know if this is a handset- and/or OS-specific problem?

    & it keeps trying to turn on but it wont . like the apple logo pops up for a minute , then turns off.

    Had exact same problem. Rang Apple support and various apple repairers. All of them said in effect, too bad, you'll have to lose everything since your last backup. It's a work phone with very important stuff on it and the latest backup was on a computer that had a virus. Convergence of crap :/
    Happened to talk to a friend who said to try replacing the battery. Did that. Problem fixed. All data saved.
    To all Apple support people: rather than say 'once it's in recovery mode you lose all data' try saying 'replace your battery and see if that works first'!!!!
