My iPhone 4 shut off randomly and wont turn back on.

Well I was texting on my iPhone 4 and then when I went to look and see if the person had replied my phone was off! I tried holding the on/off button and nothing happened. Why is it doing this?? I have had it for about a month and idk if the color makes a difference but its white and yes I do have a heavy duty case on it. It has not been dropped in forever too. Thanks

I got it to turn on looking at some other posts.. Press the home and wake button at the same time while plugged in the computer for 10 seconds works

  • 5c shut off automatically and wont turn back on

    My iPhone 5c shut off automatically and wont turn back on. I tried to turn it back on and it didn't work, so then, I went to plug it into the charger. It didn't start up or show the apple logo, it just vibrated every five seconds. So after awhile I went on to iTunes and tried to see if I could reset the factory settings, after it attempted to download it said that I needed to type in my password on my phone, but how was I suppose to do that if I can't turn my phone on in the first place??? (By the way, I accidentally dropped it, about five inches off of the ground, about an hour prior to this happening. so I don't know if dropping it had anything to do with it, because it seemed fine after I picked it up.) Help. Really, really, REALLY need it. thanks.

    If a SMC reset does not help, make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar for a free evaluation.

  • My Iphone shut itself down and wont turn back on?

    I broke my lock button about 2 months ago, and ive never had any problems. i used accesability touch to lock my phone, and sat in my living room. A little while later, i tried to open up my iphone by pressing the home button, and it wont turn back on. its completely black. I've tried plugging it up, ive tried plugging it up to my computer, but itunes doesnt even come up. i cant do a hard reset, because my lock button is broken. I dont want to get my lock button fixed, try to do a hard reset, and it turn out its a completly diffrent issue. Please try and help me solve this issue! I just got my iphone 4. I don't want a $250 dollar paper weight!

    Charge it for 15 minutes with the wall charger, then hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons for at leat 15 seconds or until an Apple logo appears.
    If that fails or nothing happens at all the phone is broken. If something happens (like any sort of screen display) but the phone does not restart within 5 minutes see: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • My airport on my mbp just started turning off randomly and wont turn back on unless i reboot - help

    this just started happening the last 2 days.... it works fine and has without issue.... i think if i pull the power cord out it starts messing up here and there.
    i use a base w a fan under.... but it does get hot as **** if not.
    but again, it works fine, no issues just this weird airport shuts off and when you click to turn back on, nothing happens... when i restart, it works fine.
    i've read all the threads for this type of issue.... tried all the suggested things.... no luck yet... did the airport update yesterday that was specifically made for this issue but its happened again.
    i REALLY don't wanna buy a new mpb.... not cuz of the money, its not the issue... i hate the new mbp's keyboard... and LOVE the 2008 ones w/ the silver keyboard.... just type faster and it feels better than the black keyboard. (strange, i know)
    any ideas on how to fix this or what to do?

    Have a repair shop take a look at the MBP to make sure that the internal wireless card is functioning properly.
    I have a 2008 MBP as well and the wireless card needed to be replaced a few months ago when intermittent issues began.
    I had the shop add some extra memory as well at the same time. Really helped.

  • My iPad Mini turned off randomly and wont turn back on.

    I was using my iPad for games during school and it just flashed a blue screen and turned off. I turned it back on and it worked for a couple minutes then the screen started doing weird things and popping up with random thin black lines. It has turnbed back on a couple times after that and it just does the same thing. I have tried resetting it by holding the home and lock button, and I would try and reset it through iTunes but it also won't connect to my computer. There is no physical damage on the device. I have only had it for a couple weeks. It has never been dropped or missused.

  • My iphone shuts off randomly and the button is too sensitive. Like I don't even press the lock button and it shuts off. This happened after the 7.1 update. It's on the iphone 5.

    My iphone shuts off randomly and the button is too sensitive. Like I don't even press the lock button and it shuts off. Also when my finger barely rubs over the lock button, it shuts off too. This happened after the 7.1 update. It's on the iphone 5. Someone help me. I just want to fix this. Maybe if it's possible I can disable the lock button.

    The lock button does not turn OFF the iPhone. It will give you a screen with the option to turn OFF the iPhone. Possibly the battery is faulty. Make Genius reservation and take iPhone to Apple store for free battery diagnostic testing and evaluation.

    I have an iphone 3 and the same problem. Some of the 2008 posts on a similar title suggest a restore. I need to save all of my 700+ photos somewhere before I attempt that process.

  • My iphone screen went black and wont turn back on .. HELP

    HELP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Your phone may be out of battery or may have shut down due to overheating.
    Try plugging it into its charger. If an empty battery with a charging symbol appears, you're good. Just let it charge for a few minutes.
    If you were using your phone excessively and it is extremely hot, wait until it cools down then turn it on again.

    My iPhone 4 is shut off and wont turn back on, unless i plug it in an outlet & when i do that it says "connect to Itunes" & then i do that and the phone wont turn on & it shows nothing is plugged in . HELP!
    & 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'!!!!
