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.

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.

My iPad was working perfectly fine and then it just turned off and wont turn back on. it had around 60% battery what do i do?

i need some help. my iPad was working perfectly fine about 20mins ago and then it just turned off and wont turn back on. its was at about 60% when it stoped working so i have ruled out the fact that its dead. ive tryed turning it back on but it wont please help.

Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up
EDIT - sorry TeeKnows. I was too slow on the draw. My apologies.

Iphone 4 turned off and wont turn back on.Please HELP!!

iphone 4 turned off and wont turn back on. It's battery was at 98-100% and was plugged into my computer via charging cable and was charging fine. I unplugged it and plugged it back in a couple different times while trying to turn it on and it wont even show a charging sign. It's blacked out I can't do anything. Please help!!

There is nothing that anyone can do to cause the problem you have except to get the phone wet. If that happened then the phone probably needs to be replaced.
It will not show anything when you connect to the charger, but still leave it connected for 15 minutes, then hold both buttons.

Hi Sian.riches,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I know it can be both concerning and frustrating if your iPhone will not turn on as expected. I also know your have done some great troubleshooting already. I would suggest reading over the attached article and trying the troubleshooting steps provided to ensure everything has been done.
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
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 LCIsand corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 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.
Have a great day,
Joe

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?

Yesterday my iPod touch's home button would not work and to day it is completely turned off and wont turn back on and it is fully charged and when i connect it to itoons it dosent reckinise it

Given the information supplied, it sounds very similar to what happened to my wife's 4. Locked up...came back on with a blank (bluish) screen...could here emails and text coming through. It would get very hot as well. Our local apple store tried two times to rescue it, ultimately rendering it complete inoperable. I'm sorry to say in our case we had to buy a refurb and trade in the phone for $150, which actually wasn't a bad deal.
There could be other information I'm missing, but I would start with seeing if apple can restore your phone. If they can't, then I'm pretty sure it's dead.

My iphone has water damage and it couldnt take anymore and turned off and wont turn back on. What do i do?

My iphone 4 has water damage and it has taken its toll and turned itself off and wont turn back on. I have tried everything, restoring, charging, restoring through itunes and taking it in for repair at an independant retailer. I really need my iphone so i was wondering where the best place to repair it is and if i can take it to apple, how much it would cost?

There is no such thing as an Apple authorized repair facility or technician. Since Apple replaces iOS devices and does not repair them in-house, they've never offered any iOS device repair training or certification. Likewise, there is no system of distribution of OEM parts, since there are no authorized repair centers to use them. Any parts are used, 3rd party recycled or outright stolen/black market.
So, anywhere you take it other than Apple is a situation of you pay your money and you take your chances (and you have no one to turn to if it fails, other then the person or place that failed to fix it for you).
Your optimal option would be to take it to Apple, pay the out of warranty repair fee and swap it for a fully factory refurbished unit (which will have a new screen, new battery and a min. 90 day warranty).
However, if it has been taken apart by someone else already for past private repair attempts, then Apple will not allow an out of warranty replacement.
The out of warranty replacement fees are available for each country under the iPhone support links, e.g. in the USA - http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_States&product=ipho ne

My mac just turned off and wont turn on, i have another laptop, I was working on editing a photo shoot in lightroom. Is there a way I can log into my lightroom from another computer to access my catalog?

My macbook just turned off and will not turn back on. I have another laptop, I was editing a photoshoot, and I needed to access those photos. Is there anyway to log into my lightroom account from another laptop, so that I can access those?

Unfortunately, your Lr catalogue is stored on the original Mac, so just logging into your account would not work. As a Windows user in your situation, and if the need for speed was essential, I would remove the hard drive from the malfunctioning PCI and connect it to a working example and try to access the catalogue from an installation of Lr on that one. Is that at all possible with your Mac setup?
Edit: do you have separate backups of your catalogue, in the cloud for instance, but can the catalogue held there be installed on a different Mac? I 've no idea if this is possible, but if you're a professional facing a deadline etc, it might be worthwhile investigating this possibility if it's impossible to move the hard drive as I suggested above.

Iphone turned off and wont turn back on

Just got a new iphone 4 a week ago and tonight while downloading an app, it turned off, with 3/4 the battery life, and wont turn back on?

Try resetting it (hold the on/off and home buttons for 10-20 seconds or longer until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the off slider that appears first, release and wait for the phone to restart). If it still won't turn off you may have to put it in recovery mode and restore it as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808.

TS4268 My iPhone 4 iMessage has stopped working so I switched it to off and switched it back on but stays on activating iMessage for a long period of time and it says it is u successful to log in, how can I get iMessage to work again?

Can some people give me advice on how to fix my situation? My iMessage wasn't working yesterday so I turned it off and back on and it's said it was activating iMessage and now it is not logging in and it comes up with log in unsuccessful and I depend on iMessage back I use it on my iPhone an iPad and it doesn't let me use it on my iPad either.

It is probably still worth while taking it to an Apple store for a possible OOW replacement and let them make the decision, as it was broken before the OP took the back off.
See note below...

IPhone turned off and wont turn on After cleaning my iPhone screen, plugging to charge.

My iPhone won't turn off after I cleaned it with damp towel and then plugging in to charge. The device shut off suddendly and I attempted to reboot it, but it shut off again at the apple logo.
I'm not sure, but is it possible that some moisture went into the earpiece? There are no indications of water damage internally and externally (checking the water damage indicators).
I saw some condensation in the front facing camera, but I've seen it occur before when I left my iPhone in a steamy bathroom (thought it was normal since the phone still worked fine).
The device won't turn on or charge. I put it in a bag of rice to remove the moisture, but it still hasnt turn on.
What should I do? I don't want to shell out $150+tax for a replacement.
I have an iPhone 4 16gb.

So you have an aparantly dead iPhone that won't switch on, even though you know the battery has some charge.
The apple solution is to try holding the Home button and power button in together for 10 seconds. But, I have found that this doesn't work 100% of the time.
There are two important steps that I have found do work.
1. Make sure the phone is connected to a power source, it can be the USB cable or mains adaptor.
2. Press and hold the Home button and power button and keep them held in until the Apple logo appears on the screen.
Don't worry if this takes longer than the 10 seconds Apple recommend - it might take up to a minute but it will work.
Once the Apple logo has appeared it may take longer than usual to 'boot' to the normal home screen - don't worry this seems normal.
I have used this method on the iPhone 3Gs and iPhone 4, but it should work on previous models - do let me know if not.
Conclusion
Your iPhone should now be working as normal.

My iphone 3gs turned off and wont turn on or connect to itunes. its fully charged, and told me to reactivate it, but it wont connect. what do i do?

what do i do?

I have the same problem. My iPhone 3GS was working just fine until I upgraded the OS to 5.0.1 a couple of days ago. When it complained about SIM card, I got that replaced and still the problem persisted. I tried to activate the Phone using my Wi-Fi and that also did not work. The phone has become unusable now.
When I contacted the CSR, he says that my phone already would have broken and that is why the upgrade did not go through which is not a fact after seeing these postings.
Apple, instead of finding a solution to this, recommend buying another equipment. Is there a way to revert back to older OS?

HT1476 iphone 4 randomly turned off and wont turn back on

hi my iphone 4 was working perfectly then i left it and wen i came back it was off and had a blank screen i then charged it on the dock which has always worked and still the same screen i left it there for a while and nothing happened same with the computer and adapter help

Plug your phone into a power source
Hold the home button and sleep/wake button simultaneously for about 10 seconds or until you see a silver apple
This is called a hard reset and it should fix your problem

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?
