My iphone 4 won't power on after charging? HELP

Hey noahkesevie!
I have an article for you that can help you further troubleshoot the issue you are seeing. The article is about troubleshooting a multitude of hardware issues on the iPhone, and can be found right here:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
You will want to pay special attention to this section:
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 15 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
Cheers,
Braden

Iphone won't power on after screen replacement

So I've dropped my Iphone 4S once and screen showed blue vertical lines. I replaced the screen for about $120. After 6 months or so I dropped it again and the screen cracked. I decided to replace the screen on my own so I got a new one and replaced it, but the phone doesn't power on after the screen replacement. I plugged it on charger, did a hard reset but still nothing. I plugged it on pc and it was recognized by the itunes! As it was plugged on pc, I did a reboot again and it left itunes as if it was powered on and suddenly powered off. Still plugged in I tried to power it on again, it was recognized again by the itunes but the screen still wasn't working. Another thing is that it burns a lot without even being on charger or on pc, and I need to take the battery off.

Sorry. There's not much we can suggest. Apple won't touch that phone now.
Try looking for advice someplace like ifixit.com.

Do not try to use it. Make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar and have the technicians evaluate it for FREE.

My iphone won't power on. It just stopped working. What do I do?

My Iphone won't power on. It just stopped working. It' been working fine with no porblems whatsover. Go figure. What do I do?

I had this same issue today and my battery said it was 98% life. I only bought this iphone 5 exactly one month ago new, Wonder if the battery is already having issues this early. I charge it every evening and I have never gone in a single day below 73% battery life.

My kid just got an iPod 5th gen (today from Santa) and it won't power up or charge. The only response is when I connect the USB and press the power button or front button the Battery appears with red line and lightning symbol. No other response at all.

Sorry about the long title.....its my first post.
My kid just got a brand new iPod 5th generation (today from Santa) and it won't power up or charge. The only response is when I connect the USB and press the power button or front button the Battery appears with red line on left and lightning symbol below. There is no other response at all no matter what I do, including holding both buttons down for extended period. My other kid got one and it works perfectly.....I have interchanged usb cables ports etc. but still no response....I would really appreciate any help.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since you have a hardware problem with the iPod. This is because as you said the same cable works with another iPod.

Aluminium iMac won't power up after shutdown

Hello All,
I have bought a 20" aluminium iMac for my parents a couple of weeks ago. It went extremely well in the first few days, but I got the complaint from my parents that it cannot power up after the proper shutdown.
It is very strange that it won't power up after it has been shutdown for a couple of hours, unless I unplug the power cord and plug it back in after a minute or so (reset the SMC)
Oppositely, I can power it up normally right after it has been shut down for a few minutes. But never overnight.
I have tried everything I know about like reset SMC and PRAM, as well as running apple diagnostic. Symptom still persist (though the diagnostic says nothing wrong with my hardware)
Is there anyone facing the same problem as me ?
Thanks
Jimmy

Thanks Guys.
I haven't called Applecare yet. However, I have reinstall the system and done a software update EXCEPT the latest imac software update v1.1 released recently.
See if anything good happen tomorrow and will let you guys know
by the way, it's really great that Mac retains everything including the Apps and Desktop setting after the reinstallation......... nothing has to reinstall except the OS itself

Iphone won't power up.

My iphone won't power up since yesterday morning. The back of it got a little wet on Saturday night but was working fine until yesterday. Any suggestions ?

It would help if you would clarify what " I have tried everything" means.
Have you tried restart, reset, restore?
Page 34 of the manual:
"If something is not working right, restarting or resetting iPhone will likely solve the
problem.
Restart iPhone: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears.
Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and
hold the Sleep/Wake until the Apple logo appears.
Reset iPhone: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the
same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
For more troubleshooting suggestions, see Appendix A, “Troubleshooting,” on
page 132. "
Page 132
Reset iPhone settings. From the Home screen choose Settings > General > Reset
Reset All Settings. All your preferences are reset, but your data and media aren’t
deleted.
If that doesn’t work, erase all content on iPhone. See “
Resetting iPhone” on page 111.
If that doesn’t work, restore the iPhone software. See “
Updating and Restoring
iPhone Software” on page 142. "

My iPhone won't power on

My iphone won't power on. Quit suddenly last night. I have tried holding the sleep button and home button simultaneously for 30 seconds but that didn't work. any other suggestions?

take it back where you bought it, It should still be under warranty.

Rand new iPhone 5s black, dead, won't power up after ios 7 upgrade...held down top button, held down home button...dead. Was fully charged, working fine tell said yes to upgrade. HELP!!!

Brand new iPhone 5s dead, black won't come on after ios update...is fully charged, was working fine till said yes to upgrade. Did not watch process beyond seeing Apple logo appear, left it alone, came back, dead. Tried holding top button, tried home button, nothing...HELP!!!

If iTunes does not recognize your iPhone even if it’s plugged in, you may need to put it into DFU (Device Firmware Update) mode. If you have to put the device in DFU mode, you will most likely be unable to back it up.
Hold Power button for 3 seconds and then the Power and Home together for 10 seconds (exactly).
Release Power but keep holding home until the your iPhone shows up in iTunes.

IPhone won't power on or show battery icon after discharge.

My iPhone4 ran out of battery. I plugged as soon as I could after it ran out (within 15 mins) and charged it overnight. It won't power on this morning and does not show the charged battery icon on the screen. The phone is only 4.5 months old and has never been left in a car or extreme heat. I always let the bettery run down to <10% before charging and then charge back to full capacity. I have tried holding down the home key and the sleep/wake buttons individually and together and nothing. Any suggestions?

Thanks for the help. I had tried to connect it to the computer on my own and found out that my version of iTunes must be too old to talk to my iPhone4. I am still running 10.4.11 on my PowerBook G4 which uses an older version of iTunes. I don't use the music feature on my phone to conserve my battery for Apps and other features I really like and leave the music to my Shuffle. Guess I am really lucky it doesn't work as I would hate to loose my photos of my new grandson. I need to find a quick way to send them to backup storage.
When I disconnected after trying the computer and tried your suggestion of holding it until I saw the symbol, it finally worked. Guess I did not hold them both together for long enough. The battery only shows 31% even though it was on wall charger all night. I will use it as is today and charge it overnight again to see if it gets a full charge.

No power on my ipad mini after charger.help me please

Hi soethatnaing,
If your iPad won't turn on, I recommend trying the steps in the "Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off" section of this article under Power/Battery:

Take care,

HT201412 iphone won't power on support answer doesn't help. any suggestions

Iphone 5 won't power on and shuts down by self. I have updated operating system fully charged the battery and restored the phone
all things suggested by on line support. Anyone have any suggestions

If no change after trying all things included with on-line support, there is nothing else to try. The iPhone includes a one year warranty.
Call AppleCare or make an appointment at an Apple Store if there is one nearby.

My iPod won't power up or charge

My iPod touch won't charge or power up. I haven't used it in a couple of years or so, I have no idea what OS it is using or seriel number of anything.
It was given to me by the company I work for to do some demo a product, once that program ended almost 2 years ago I never used it again. I can't find the Apple USB plug I tried using another USB charging device that I use to charge my Android phones, nothing even over night, I've tried plugging it into my PC still nothing. I have tried the "reset" (sleep/wake button and home button together held it down for more than 10 seconds still nothing

Try:
- 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 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.
