Iphone 4 won't turn on keeps saying plug into itunes when it's on itunes
Phone randomly shut off and won't turn back on. I keep plugging it into itunes to restore it and it tells me an unknown error occurred
I could see this happening if your battery is not charged enough for your iPhone to turn on. I would suggest letting your phone charge for several hours without usage. If the problem still persists, you should try restarting your phone or hard powering down (holding down power button and home button for several seconds simultaneously). If your phone still won't turn on properly after this, the next step would be to reset your settings or restore to default factory mode, keep in mind this will wipe ALL of your data, and you may need to reactivate your phone with your service provider. The final step, should all else fail, would be to bring your device into an Apple store to have it checked and repaired for you. My best guess would be a faulty battery, or possibly a virus installed on your phone. I hope you can get this issue solved on your own quickly, however, should it come to it, Apples repair section has a great reputation.
Best of luck! -
Iphone 5 wont turn on, charge or connect to itunes
My daughters iphone 5 is about 18 months old, she's recently had problems with the battery draining from 100% - 0% in a matter of a couple of hours even when not in use. Last week the battery drained and wouldn't charge, i tried everything i could think of and some things i found on the net. Yesterday i took it to a repair shop and they tested the battery, the battery was dead and he couldn't get it to charge. I decided to buy a new battery and hoped this fixed the problem. The phone charged as normal and everything was fine but today the phone died in a few hours and now wont charge again.
I've tried holding the home and power buttons for different amounts of time.
I've toggled the volume buttons,
left on charge for over an hour in the wall
I've cleaned all the conections and found no dust or anything.
I just can't get it to do anything.
I've connected it to my laptop but i can't even get itunes to recognise the phone, it's now been conected for a couple of hours and nothing is happening.
I've tried different chargers but as the chargers work with my own phone it can't be a faulty cable.
Is therre anything else i can try?Hello Claire_80,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
The following troubleshooting steps will help in resolving this issue of the iPhone not powering on, and also not being recognized by iTunes:
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 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.

IPhone 3g won't turn on, and not recognized by iTunes after erase/reset
My iPhone G3 (with the latest 4.0.1 software) was acting up so I decided to do an erase/restore to see if it helped the problems.
I did a reset/erase everything through the phone OS now all I get is the Apple start screen, and the phone does not start up. When I plug connect it to my computer the iPhone is not recognized.
Clueless!! Any help?See if you can force the phone into recovery mode:
Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, itunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new. Select restore as new, follow by syncing your itunes content. -
IPad won't turn off, returns to Connect to iTunes screen
My iPad constantly shows the Connect to iTunes screen. Okay, something's wrong, although I have no idea why . But I won't be near my computer for a few days. I'd like to turn off the iPad until I can, as it asks, Connect to iTunes. But the iPad2 with recently updated software won't turn off.
If I hold just the power button for 6 seconds, the screen goes black. Good, I think, it's turned off. Then 4 seconds later the Apple logo appears and then the iPad shows Connect to iTunes.
If I hold both the power and Home buttons for 10 seconds, the screen goes black and then immediately the Apple logo appears and returns to Connect to iTunes.
How can I get the iPad to turn off and stop burning that image into the screen? Do I just wait for the battery to die?Got the same problem with my Ipad2. Went do to the update late last night and it seems like the update quit half-way through the install.
Now all i get is the screen telling me to plug in the USB cable and connect to itunes. -
IPod 5th Generation won't turn on, charge, nor connect to PC.
I have no idea how this iPod came to be this way. It belongs to my 6 year old sister who came to me today asking me to fix it. It's a 5th Generation Product RED iPod Touch.
The problem now is the screen is not displaying anything. Reset doesn't work. DFU doesn't work. When connected to PC both iPod and PC show no response (tried on multiple USB ports on multiple PCs all running Windows 7 64-bit). When plugged in to an iPhone charger, the iPod displays the Apple logo for a few seconds, goes dark for a few seconds and shows the Apple logo again, and the process repeats. I tried to fix it as a reboot loop but to no avail. While Connected to charger, I manage to put it in DFU mode but when plugged out to be plugged in to the PC it dies and doesn't turn on when connected to PC.
Preferrably, I would like to have a solution to this which doesn't wipe the iPod as the iPod was never connected to a PC for backup. Thus, all data on the iPod will ultimately be lost.See if you missed anything here:
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

My iphone won't turn on and wont connect to itunes
I just got an iphone 4s from a close friend who was going to throw it away because they gave up on this problem and i dont want to. The iphone has never been exposed to water and I'm sure it's fine. It looks brand new, no scratches or anything of the sort.
I have tried charging it. I have tried connecting it to itunes (itunes wont find it no matter what i do. I have even restarted my computer with the iphone hooked up to it and that did not work either.)
I have tried to enter DFU mode. Nothing comes up. I am presuming that it is dead but I'm not sure. As i said, I just got it and it was from a friend. I have held down the home and start buttons for numerous amounts of time and nothing seems to be working. Is it actually a piece of trash? What should i do? I really want to fix this, as this may be my only chance to actually own an iphone.
Apparently at one time it did work. I'm not sure when it was broken or how it was broken but I am unsure of what to do.This is what you do

My ipod wont turn on, charge, or connect to itunes
I have an ipod touch, the third one i have gotten in about 3 months. All having the same issue. I'm about to say screw it and stop using apple products forever because this is completely ridiculous.
WHEN the ipod was working it would come on for no apparent reason and start playing music even when it was locked. One day I went to listen to it and it wouldnt come on. I went to charge it and left it on the charger for about 4 hours, nothing. I plugged it into the computer, nothing. I plugged it into 5 different cables, nothing. I held down the center and power button until the apple popped up..... and nothing.
Obviously I cannot connect it to itunes so PLEASE dont tell me to reset it via itunes. Can someone PLEASE tell me why this has happened to my last 3 ipods and how to possibly fix it?
I no longer have money to have it fixed or to buy a new one, seeing as i bought this MAYBE 3 weeks ago. Sick of spending money on products that seem to crap out relentlessly.There is really no way to tell WHY it happened except may the Apple Genius. I have an iPhone 4 that is still working fine as well as an iPad 4, iPhone 4S and 7G iPod Nano. I have not had any problems.
