My iPhone has turned on but it won't go beyond the apple symbol ?

When I turned my iPhone 5 on the apple symbol appeared on screen but two and a half hours later the phone has not started . The Apple symbol is still on screen but I cannot turn it on or of it is just completely froze . Can anyone help . Thanks in advance

The first thing to do when you have a problem, is to do the reset:
hold the Power button and the Home button at the same time and keep them pressed, hold, until you see the white apple logo and then let go.
Let it start again.

  • IPhone stuck - won't move beyond the Apple logo

    I just downloaded the latest iPhone update and while it was syncing with my phone, it froze, then I got a message from iTunes saying it couldn't connect to my iPhone. I disconnected and reconnected, and it has said it's synced, but my iPhone won't start now. It turns on, but never moves beyond the Apple logo. Underneath the apple, there's a white bar, as if something is trying to update or download, but nothing ever happens. It just stays stuck there. To restart it, I have to press both the power and home button. I've tried restarting about 5 times, and it does the same each time. I've tried syncing with iTunes again, and still nothing happens.
    Has this happened to anybody else before? If so, how did you resolve it?

    FIXED! OK guys, this is what I did.
    I just took it to the Apple store and they fixed it for me.
    I know you were all waiting for a solution that you could do yourself but there wasn't one that I could figure out.
    My problem once again:
    iTouch 1st Gen with first OS.
    Upgraded OS to 3.1.2
    Then got hung up on white apple logo with white bar beneath it.
    When I took it to the Apple store, they said that the downloaded OS might have been corrupt or not downloaded properly/completely.
    So they re-installed the OS for me. Then I was able to go home and sync it with my iTunes without losing anything!
    They got some computers and software at the Apple store that I don't think you can get anywhere. Diagnostics stuff. That's why it's better to just let them fix it. They didn't charge me anything for it either.
    Hope this helps!

  • My iPod wont turn on anymore. I have had my iPod since the end of January of 2012, Last night it shut off on me. It keeps trying to reboot itself, but all it does it show the apple symbol, then the screen goes white and reboots again. I need help. :(

    Hi, My name is Cassie.
    I bought my iPod off of amazon just around the end of January of this year (2012). Last night I was playing around on my iPod. Listening to pandora, and editing pictures. I got to a picture and clicked edit, and then my iPod shut off. It rebooted itself and seemed to be running as if nothing had happened. I put my music back on and went back to the picture and tried to edit it again. I clicked the edit button and the ipod shut off again. This time, it kept rebooting. It went to the apple symbol to turn on and about thirty seconds, the time it normally takes to turn on, the whole screen went white and then shut off and tried rebooting again. It kept doing this over and over again. After a while, it did eventually stop, but only to a completely white screen. It was like that all night long because I fell asleep. (gave up on it). It is now the afternoon and after I held the lock button and the home button down the screen when off. I let it sit for about a half an hour, then I tried turning it on again. But it still is doing the same thing. I have no idea what I could have done to make it do this. Unfortunalty, I am not home to connect it to my own iTunes, but regaurdless, it wont even connect to the computer. I did have my ipod plugged in the whole time it was rebooting and shutting off last night. It was connected to my wall jack which normally works fine. But even having it plugged into the computer as it is now, its still doing the same thing. I am dissapointed that I might end up loosing everything that I have on it. I have not been able to sync it to my computer to save all the apps and pictures and music I have stored on it. I really do hope I can get some help or advice!
    Thank You!!

    Hello hfb8,

  • What is wrong with my Ipod when it turns on but, only goes till you see the apple and than turns off

    My Ipod gen. 4 flashes the apple on and off. My Itunes account doesn't see I have my Ipod on the USB.What can I do to fix it? What is my issues?

    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.
    - 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 MacBook Pro won't load beyond the apple logo

    Hi there,
    So I was on my MacBook as always, doing college work and chatting on FaceBook; nothing out of the ordinary. Then completely out of the blue, my MacBook froze, so I turned it off, turned it back on and I've been left looking at the apple logo for over half an hour now... What's going on?!
    Note: The last time this happened I had to send it away, but that was because it fell and the hard disk had dislodged, but this happened completely out of nowhere.
    Thanks

    Well, it would depend if your HDD has died. If you don't have a backup that would be unfortunate.
    First, go grab your original install disk, stick it in, and restart & hold the C key.
    That will bring up the install screen.
    Select your Language.
    Then go up the top to Utilities > Disk Utility > Repair Disk + Repair Permissions
    Please take note of any errors it repairs / does not repair.

  • My ipod touch will not turn on but when i plug it in the apple keeps flashing and thats all it does and my computer and itunes cannot find it what do i do?

    Did you happen to install Cydia or what they refer to as jailbreaker recently?

  • My speedlite 600 ex-rt will turn on but it won't fire. Any suggestions?

    My speedlite 600 ex-rt flash will turn on but it won't fire. The batteries work and were fully charged so that was not the problem. It also reads that it is ready to fire but no flash. It's about 1 year old, Is the flash worn out already or can it be fixed?

    Does the test button turn red (I still have no idea why red means ready and green means it's still charging)?  Does it fire a test flash when you push it?  In answer to your question, no, the flash shouldn't be burned out yet, not even close.  Though, if it doesn't fire a test flash then something is wrong.  I know there have been reports of some issues with rechargeables.  So much so that Canon actually contraindicated them in the labeling.  It's nonsense, but still, try fresh alkalines if the test flash isn't working just to be sure.

  • Macbook  flickering screen & freeze, then won't boot pass the apple logo

    Hi Guys,
    My macbook is driving me insane now. Just recently, my macbook has occasionally flickering screen and freezes after that. Yesterday, when I was watching youtube on fullscreen, it first has flickering screen, then freezes. So I hard booted it pressing the power button. Then, when I try to restart it, it won't boot pass the apple logo no matter what.
    Here's my macbook spec
    2007 Summer Macbook Pro 15"
    Snow Leopard 10.6 OS X
    I cracked my screen once, and got a replacement, don't know if that matters.
    I've tried the following:
    Safe mood reboot, the progress bar goes about half, then disappears and stalls again.
    Booted in verbose mode but it gives a warning message:
    'com.apple.driver. internalmodemsupport declares no kernel dependencies; using com.apple.kernal.6.0'.
    Booted in Single user mood, and typed fsck for disk repair. After checking said the volume Macintosh HD appears to be ok. But still won't boot pass the apple logo after restart.
    Boot with installation disk pressing C at startup. Success after a few try:
    Opened Disk Utility and did disk repair (no problem found).
    Reinstalled Snow Leopard OS X 10.6.
    This time it booted with Finder and everything for a short while, then the screen flicker and freezes again (before I can backup anything!). Then, I can't reboot pass the apple logo again.
    When I try to reinstall Leopard OS X 10.5 with installation disk, the macbook seems to try to read the disk, but won't boot. I've got a CD stuck in the optical drive now.
    I've tried everything I can find online short of opening it up and send it into the oven for baking! I pray it's not a hardware problem, coz I'm no good at that. (QAQ~~~) Please help me!
    Thank you very, very, very much!!!
    ps. this is my first post. please let me know if I have missed anything.

    Reboot the machine holding the trackpad or left wired mouse button down, that shoudl force eject the 10.5 disk.

    Ok, so your attempting data recovery efforts.
    First get the 10.5 disk out of the machine, like above.
    You can also boot into Single User mode, (command s at reboot) and enter
    /usr/bin/drutil eject
    then type
    restart
    Next hold c boot and use the 10.6 disk and create a data recovery drive here on a blank external drive, make sure you clean and polish the bottom of the 10.6 disk, if it's bad you will need to get a new one.
    Create a data recovery, undelete boot drive
    If your problems continue on this drive even with a clean or new 10.6 disk, it's likely a hardware issue with your Mac, not a issue with the drive.
    I suspect a failing sector on your internal boot drive, you installed OS X right over the same spot perhaps, as you were obviously able to boot from the 10.6 disk to install it so it seems the hardware of the Mac appears to be working.
    You might have other issues relateing to software perhaps, something your installing or running.
    Step by Step to fix your Mac
    Once you have gotten your files off the internal drive, you may want to look into doing a Zero Erase with Disk Utility before resintalling 10.6 again fresh install method.

  • Help - My Macbbok starts up but idles and shows the Apple symbol...

    I woke up this morning and turned on my Black MacBook and found it stuck on the part showing the Apple symbol without the loading circle displaying below. I restarted many times and the same thing is happening. I dont know what to do. Any suggestions?

    Sry for the late reply, i didn't install new programs or move files around or even changed my ram. I tried to reinstall the mac os X system again but it always comes back to the apple symbol even though I have held down the 'C' button at start up. i think it might have something to do with the hardware, because it is not going anywhere, plus the harddrive is not making any noise once the symbol appears.
    Btw ive only had this macbook for like 1 week.

  • Ipod wont turn on any more than the apple symbol

    I have had my ipod for about 4 1/2 months. My music began to shut off randomly. I would be playing music and i would just stop and go to my home screen. I then proceeded to turn off my ipod. I figured that if i turned it off then back on it would maybe start to work. I turned it off and went to turn it back on and it went to the apple symbol screen and was stuck. The ipod turns it self off after about 1 minute after i attempt to tun it on. I have tried charging it and having it plugged in but nothing seems to work. Please Help.

    Have you tried reset?

    If itunes recognizes it, then you can try a restore.
