My iPhone 4s is black and won't turn on.

My iPhone 4s is black and wont turn on. It is not dead, because I had just recently looked and it had 50%. I have had this phone for less than 3 months, what is wrong with it? I haven't dropped it badly and there are no cracks.

"I haven't dropped it badly and there are no cracks."  Does this mean that you have dropped it, but there are no cracks?  Could be that you still broke something.
Otherwise, try plugging into the charger for a bit and then see if you can turn it on with the charger still connected.  If it works, let the phone charge fully and try again with the charger disconnected.

  • My iPhone screen went black and won't turn back on.

    Yesterday, my iPhone 4S screen went black and won't turn back on. So I tried just letting charge but after an hour nothing happened, so then I switched out the chargers and made sure the outlet I was using worked. But it still was black. Then I did a little research and I tried to put it into DFU mode but my power button has been broken for a few months now, so that didn;t work either. Then I tried restoring it, but my computer didn't recognize it!!! So then over night I let it rest with no power source connected to it. This morning I plugged it back into a power source and it showed the charging icon. I'm pretty that means it's still running, but I'm not an expert. PLEASE HELP!

    If you have got a different USB Sync cable try to charge your iPhone with that as there are possibilities that your current USB cable or Power Adapter is not Charging your iPhone. If it still doesn't work make an appointment to Nearest Apple Genius Bar

  • HT1766 my iphone just went black and won't turn on what can I do?

    Help! My iphone 3gs was working just fine. My granddaughter picked it up and jerked it out of the charger and it went black. I have tried pushing the home & power button together, going to itunes to restore and nothing helps. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks Terri

    Did you try any of the reset steps, etc. outlined in some of these forums or pretty much do nothing until it started working again? Also, do you have an iPhone 4 as Sam The AMAZING does?
    (I'm desperately grasping straws to figure out whether or not I've exasperated all options and my iPhone is lost forever...)
    Thanks, L

  • What do I do if my iPhone 3GS just went black and won't turn back on or anything?

    it has the latest update and everything.
    i was snapchatting my friends, hit the home button and the whole phone went black and won't turn back on

    Reset, hold both home and power buttons until the iPhone begins to start, usually takes about 10 seconds. If still nothing, connect to Wall Charger and Reset, this can sometimes take about 20 seconds while on charger.

  • My Ipod touch went black and won't turn on

    My Ipod touch went black and won't turn on

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - 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.

  • IPhone 4 is dead and won't turn on

    Can anyone help?  iPhone 4 is dead and won't turn on.  It was fully charged when it died.

    Hi
    I have pretty much the same problem. iphone 4, just over a year old ( so no longer under my service providers guarantee apparently !) Was using facebook with full battery and it just went black. I've tried hard-reseting holding the buttons for a full two minutes: nothing. Tried to connect to itunes: not recognised. It has crashed several times recently using facebook but always gone to homepages.
    Can anyone out there help us ?

  • My iPhone 4 shut down and won't turn on again.What should i do?

    My iPhone 4 shut down and won't turn on again. I tried charging it and do it again...When i charge it , it opens the " Connect to iTunes" , when i switch to the computer to connect it , it doesn't work... It starts to the apple screen , and then just shuts down again. I tried holding the home and sleep/wake button at the same time..I tried everything. What should i do?

    Your iPhone is going back and forth between recovery mode and powering on which is really strange.
    Have you tried a hardware reset while its connected to your computer? This will force it back into recovery mode so that you can restore it. If restoring and setting up as new doesn't help, go ahead and take it to an Apple Store for a replacement

  • Macbook Pro suddenly shuts off. screen goes black and won't turn off till after a few hours.

    Hi everyone!
    So I've had this problem from my macbook since months ago. It sometimes just shuts off by itself, the screen turning black and won't turn on until like after a few hours (sometimes a day, but sometimes you could also immediately open it just like that.)
    When it shuts off and you plug the adapter it is still charging, the lights on the side of the macbook book still lights up just fine if you press the button on the side. the only problem is that it wont open until after a few minutes, hours or days (very unpredictable) (also tapping the macbook helps, I dont know if it "really" helps or not, but it works sometimes.) But when it open it will be working fine until another couple of weeks or 3 or a month (again unpredictable)
    I dont know what's wrong with my laptop, please help me. It would be greatly appreciated! thank you so much in advance!

    Hold the power button down for 10+ seconds.  Then bring the MBP to an Apple store for an evaluation.
    Ciao.

    Plug into a wall charger for about 10 mins and see if it comes back on.   You may have a dead battery.

  • Iphone 4s is frozen and won't turn off.  How do I turn it off if the button at the top doesn't work?

    My iphone 4S is frozen and won't turn off.  Is there another way to reboot or turn off the phone besides the button at the top?

    Try to Reset your device. 
    Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake button (I know you think it's broken, but try) and the Home button for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears (ignore the Slide to Power Off that shows up first).

  • IPhone 4 shut off and won't turn on

    My iPhone just shut off today, and won't turn back on. I tried charging it up, but the batter charger doesn't even get warm, so it appears to NOT charge. I'll be trying to plug into iTunes next...but this does not look good for the phone.  Any suggestions or has anyone gone through something like this?

    Hold down sleep wake button and home button down for 18-20 sec to restart the phone.

  • My iPhone 4s switched off and won't turn back on

    My iPhone 4s was working fine then all on sudden screen was black and can't turn it on. I have tried plugging into my computer and charger still nothing.
    I know battery is charged and I have tried the hard restart.
    Any other ideas????

    I am also dealing with this. I got mine right out of the box, set it up, added all features, and then the screen went completely black. I plugged it in, tried all button combinations. Then I called Verizon Wireless and they couldn't help me get it back on. Ended up sending it back and my new 4S will be here on Tues or Wed. Really Apple? I hadn't even taken the plastic off! All I can say is call your service provider and ask for advice.
