My iPhone just randomly stopped working

Hi everyone, was wondering if anyone has been having this problem.
What happened was, when i was listening to music on my iStation at home the music randomly stopped, i thought i maybe the iStation stopped working but it turned out that my iPhone had stopped working. I tried to turn the iPhone back on but it didn't work.
After freaking out for about twenty minutes the screen turned on. It was the screen that appears the first time the iPhone is turned on saying to connect it to iTunes. I did this and restored it and it's working now but i lost many new contacts and many important calender dates.
Just wanted to know if this has happened to anyone else and if i should be worried that it will do it again.
Thanks

I suggest subscribing to mobile me because when you enter a new contact or calendar event it automatically goes to the mobile me server and when you do have to restore your phone those contacts come back as soon as you enter your mobile me information. That was great when I upgraded to the IP4 because until I got home I had all my contacts on my phone without syncing to my computer.

    I believe you could be right there but Im not sure because it worked fine like 2 days ago, I did however manage to fix it by doing a system restore to about week ago it seemed to clear it up, the only thing that I have installed since then was a Quicktime update, so I believe that chances are something happened while downloading and installing it that may have messed adobe up.
    What I noticed was that Premiere had completley stoped conforming other videos, randomly quit working once I hit the play button or it would just hang up when I pressed play.
    I have no clue what the issue was but I do know that System restore saved me from having a nirvous breakdown

  • My touchpad just randomely stopped working and i dont know why? can someone please help me.

    i was using a plug in mouse and now i cant use my touchpad even when the mouse is unplugged. i have a hp pavillion gseries. can someone please help me, i dont like carrying a mouse around with me everywhere i take my laptop.

    Well, if you updated to 8.2, then you are living in a different world than the rest of us. 8.1 was just released on Monday.
    Do you not have an iCloud or iTunes backup that you can restore to? Have you not been importing your photos to a photo library on your computer?
    Maybe you could start from the beginning and we can see if we can help. If you had to restore your device, and you have absolutely no backups, then, I'm afraid you are out of luck. However, if you have backups, or if you have been importing your photos on a regular basis, then probably most of your stuff can be recovered.

  • My apple tv just randomly stopped working.  It is telling me to connect to iTunes... too bad it didn't come with a USB cord.  Is there a way around this???

    "Connect to itunes"

    If you were attempting to update then it means it was not applied properly. Otherwise, there was something in the environment that caused it to go into recovery mode.
    You will need a micro usb cord to restore via iTunes. Most have one lying around, or they can be had for cheap. The other option is to take it to Apple and have them restore it.

  • IPhone 5 charger stopped working. Can I get a new one for free?

    I bought an iphone 5 charger from best buy about a month ago. It just randomly stopped working. I was wondering if I took it to the apple store, would they replace it? Or would I have to buy a new one.

    Hello cas93ey,
    It sounds like you purchased an Apple charger for your phone at another retailer and it has stopped working. According to the following link your Apple charger has a 1 year warranty:
    Your Hardware Warranty
    https://www.apple.com/legal/warranty/products/accessory-english.html
    THIS WARRANTY DOES NOT AFFECT YOUR STATUTORY RIGHTS
    Your Apple-branded hardware product is warranted against defects in materials and workmanship for a period of ONE (1) YEAR from the date of original retail purchase ("Warranty Period"). If a defect arises during the Warranty Period, Apple, at its option and to the extent permitted by law will (1) repair the product at no charge using new parts or parts that are equivalent to new in performance and reliability, (2) exchange the product with a functionally equivalent product that is new or equivalent to new in performance and reliability, or (3) refund the original purchase price. This warranty excludes damage resulting from abuse, accident, modifications or other causes that are not defects in materials and workmanship.
    I would first try the steps in the following article before seeking service. If it comes down to that, there is also a link to contact us:
    Inspect the connector at the bottom of the phone:
    Make sure that there are no bent pins in the connector.
    Make sure that the connector is free from debris.
    If there are bent pins or debris, please contact Apple Support.
    Otherwise, continue troubleshooting.
    Make sure that the outlet you're using works.
    Make sure that the Apple USB cable and Apple USB power adapter work.
    Plug the device in to power and let it charge for up to 30 minutes. If you don't have an Apple USB power adapter, try connecting to a computer's high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be on.
    If the device still exhibits an issue, try turning your device off and then on again while connected to power.
    If the issue is persists, please contact Apple Support.

  • Integrated microphone randomly stops working

    Hi I have a problem with my integrated mic. It just randomly stops working.
    It was working fine until a few weeks ago. Then one day suddenly it didnt work. and itl randomly start working again.
    One way that it got fixed one time was when i plugged in an external mic i borrowed from a friend and unplugged. after that my integrated mic started working again. the next day it stopped working again.
    I have tried everything possible to try and fix it.
    - Went to sound disabled/enabled it.
    - uninstalled/reinstalled the drivers.
    - installed other drivers such as realtek
    - used the windows microphone troubleshoot.
    - tried configuring the microphone.
    - even tried system restore, but i only had like 2 restore points since my laptop is relatively new
    Nothing has worked. Can someone please come up with an actual solution to my problem?
    My laptop is a dv6-6c50us  with windows 7 64bit home premium.
    And the sound that my laptop uses is IDT  high definition codec.
    I strongly appreciate any help i can get with this problem.

  • Sound randomly stops working on Iphone 5c

    The sound randomly will stop working. (ringers, audio, etc.) I have had this phone for one day.
    Oddly enough, the same thing was going on with my iphone 5 which is a big reason I went and upgraded, now i am just very aggravated!
    Anyone know what could be going on??

    I have the same problem with my new 5c, seemingly carried over from when I upgraded from my old 3s that had the same problem - all sounds randomly stop working (although vibrate seems to still work) and then randomly start working again.
    When you set up your new phone did you 'restore' from your old phone's back-up or set it up completely like a new phone? I did the former so I assume whatever the 'glitch' is, it may be something to do with that.
    I called 1-800-MYIPHONE and was advised to do a hard reset - I questioned the point of that when I effectively started from scratch with my new phone only a few weeks ago (well, when I say from scratch I of course mean I 'restored' from my old phone's back-up so that all my stuff would carry over...), plus given the coincidence of having the same problem on my old phone... Next guidance was to restore the phone to factory settings and start over from 'new phone' status, which I did this afternoon... so far so good but we shall see. Here's a link to the guide on how to do it if you want to give it a whirl:

    I took my iPhone to the Service center of M/s RSG INFOTECH PRIVATE LIMITED on April 17, 2014.
    Why are you posting in this forum about what occured with an independent service provider?  How is is at all relevant to Apple??  In fact, service by any person or business not authorized by Apple voids any waranty.

    Hello everyone my iPhone 5s sounds stop working.i did not do anything it just stop working when I tried to turn on my music player all the sounds is not working I already check the volume and it is not also muted :( what happened can anyone solve my problem please

    Hey Kirby17,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    If you are not getting any sound from the speaker, follow this article.
    iPhone: No sound or distorted sound from speaker
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5180
    Ensure that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack or the dock connector.
    If the iPhone is in a protective case, make sure that the speaker port isn't blocked by the case.
    Make sure that the speaker and dock port aren't clogged with debris. If necessary, clean it with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush. Carefully and gently brush away any debris.
    If an audio issue occurs when using a specific application, try testing other applications to see if the issue persists.
    If the iPhone is paired with a Bluetooth headset or car kit:
    Try turning off Bluetooth.
    If you experience difficulties with the Bluetooth feature, follow these troubleshooting steps.
    Restart the iPhone.
    If restarting doesn't fix the issue, ensure that your iPhone is updated to the latest version of iOS.
    If the issue is not resolved, please contact Apple Support.
    Have a nice day,
    Mario

  • My iPhone sound suddenly stopped working.

    I have had my iPhone 4s for over a year with no problems other than the occasional slow down, etc. Just last night, the sound on my phone randomly stopped working. It will work for a few seconds then stop, and just keep doing it. Its my ringtone, text tone, keypad tone, music, and video apps. I've tried turning the phone on and off with no luck. I just want to know why my phone has suddenly started doing this when it was just working fine and how to fix it. Please help?

    None of these methods worked, so I just took a very thin paintbrush and dampened it using a Clorox wipe. Then, I just wiggled it around in the charging port. The sound worked for like 3 seconds then it stopped again. So I continued to clean it and it worked! After I listened to my music for about 30 minutes until it stopped again. I just blew hard into the port and it started working again. I think the problem was that the phone thought it was docked into speakers because it was so dirty. I think I'm going to get an Otterbox so this doesn't happen again. I hope I helped.
