My iPhone 4 wont charge unless it is off. can't restore

Hello everyone. My iPhone 4 wont charge unless it is off. It is currently running ios 5.1. I can't restore because it won't connect when turning on! I have tried updating to ios6 via software update tab but it just responds with software update failed!

Well, look it up on the internet. Surely if you were able to find this site, you can find out where there's an Apple store near you.

Hi When you change your iPad, even if its off it will, turn on when you connect, to charger Check lightining port for any bits. Do a Reboot press &hold power button & menu button hold both down until you see Apple Logo This may help. Cheers Brian

My Phone Wont Charge Unless It's Off

I Brought An Iphone From Ebay And When I Went To Charge It I Noticed It Only Charged When It Was Turned Off ; I'm Using An Apple Charger ... What's The Problem ?

Charging of the phone normally turns it on. If you are having trouble like that, I suggest you contact the seller and see about a refund. Something wrong with that phone.

Sadly your iPhone sounds like it's not worth repairing.. I am sorry only a replacement phone will fill the bill...

My iphone wont charge can the charging port be repaired or replaced

my iphone wont charge can the charging port be replaced or repaired

Apple does not repair devices at all.
As stated, you can elect to find a local repair shop to do the work, but understand that Apple does not sell parts either.
Alternatively, you can choose to do an Out of Warranty replacement via Apple and get a 90 day warranty on the replacement device.
Another option would be to replace the device with a more current model.

My iphone wont charge and my PC can't see it.

My iphone wont charge and my PC can't see it. can anybody help. At first a yellow warning triangle appeared saying this device is not compatible with charging. but that does not show now.

Most likely a hardware problem, which it may be possible to fix. Get a magnifier and look in the dock connector on the bottom of the phone. If there is dirt or moisture in it clean it with a dry toothbrush. If a pin is bent try to straighten it. Also try a different cable. If all of these fail the phone is broken.

My iphone wont charge its update prblm or not

my iphone wont charge its update prblm or not..........

How are you charging the device? Are you using the Apple brand provided charger & cable? Are you connecting it to a USB port on a computer or directly to a power outlet? How long are you leaving the device to sit an charge?

My macbbok wont charge unless its connected to charger

My macbooks batery wont charge unless its connected to charger! pls help!

The current provided by most USB ports on computers is not sufficient to charge the iPad. It may charge but the not charging icon will show, and the charge rate will be quite slow.

Your signature say iOS4.3.1.
If you have a 3G, you cannot be running 4.3.1
iOS4.3.x and higher requires a 3GS.
While this has no bearing on your current issue... it could cause confusion if you need assistance in the future with other iOS related issues.
Make sure you know which device you have. Identify iPhone models.

i have the ipod touch 5 generation. As I try to charge my ipod it wont charge unless it is laying down and can not be straight up. does anyone have a idea on what i can do????

- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

HT201412 iphone wont charge/turn on

My Iphone wont charge i have never dropped it or spilt water on it its been a case eversince i purchased it the battery has now gone so it wont turn oni have tried charging through the laptop and through the mains with apple approved chargers and still nothing can anyone help please?

If the device battery has been depleated to the point there is no charge in the device - it MAY take some time before you get an indication that the device is charging. Please charge the device into a know good charging system ie... good USB cord and charging adapter. Leave it there for a period of 2-3 hours to see if the charging indicator does not show up on the front of the devices screen.
Good luck.

If you are the original owner of the phone and know the Apple ID and password that were used to activate it originally, and if you have an existing backup to restore from, you can force it into recovery mode (which will completely erase it) and restore it as explained here: If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support. When you do you will encounter activation lock, and will have to provide the ID and password used to activate it originally in order to activate it again. If you can't, you won't be able to activate and use it.
