My iphone just shut off and now wont turn back on.. is stuck on the apple screen.

my iphone 3gs is locked up...  just shut off in the middle of a text...  tries to turn it back on and it wont go past the aple screen??

Try resetting your iPhone by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
If you can't do that, try Recovery Mode... http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • My iPhone just shut off and won't turn back on

    My iPhone 4 just automatically shut off and now will not turn back on. I have tried plugging it to the wall and into my laptop but nothing is working.

    Connect iPhone to the Wall Charger for 10 minutes, it may turn ON itself. If still nothing, keep on charger and Reset, hold both home and power buttons for about 20 seconds until the iPhone begins to start.

    If you have Apple Care or your computer is still under warranty, give them a call and get a case number.  Otherwise, take the computer to an Apple store or an AASP.  Whichever is more convenient for you.

  • My iPhone 5s has just shut off and won't turn back on. Please help?

    I was just chatting on a app and the phone just froze, went to a white screen with the apple trade mark. Then it completely shut off and wouldn't turn back on. I tried charging it and it still won't turn back on.

    Thanks for the advice but I've tried this it hasn't worked. I've held down both buttons together for more than a minute. Do I have to hold them down longer than this?

  • My macbook just shut off and will not turn back on, connected to the charger. Help!

    My macbook just shut iff and will not turn back on, connected to the charger. HELP!

    Hi there,... what color is the charge indicator on the charger connector? orange or green.
    Did you let your Air die from power?  Or has it been stored away for a while on a very low charge?
    What happens when you try to power on? nothing?
    If you cannot get to recovery mode and cannot power on at all, then its time for a service call to Apple for in shop full diagnosis and possible repair.

    Hi Bel Fiore,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    See this article for the steps to restart and reset your iPhone:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    Display has no backlight or dark screen
    Toggle the ringer switch to see if the unit vibrates. If it does, it could be that iPhone is getting power, but is not displaying any image.
    Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
    While connected to the iPhone charger, try to reset the iPhone.
    If the low-battery screen appears, charge the iPhone.

  • IPhone 4 shutting off, and will not turn back on

    my iphone 4 has just recently turned off, and won't turn back on even with a hard reset. I have tried plugging it into itunes and also the top button and home button... any other ideas?

    I didn't drop it, I have taken extremely good care of my phone. One day the button started "sticking" when I locked it.... and then it just didn't "click" or pop back up anymore. The button wasn't even a problem because I started using the Assistive Touch function and could easily lock my phone on screen. However, today my phone just turned off out of no where, and I have had it plugged up into different chargers and different outlets and still none of them have made my phone turn on....
    Also, do you know if I went to either the apple store or Verizon, would I be able to get my contacts/files, since I had not backed up my phone in awhile before this ordeal happened...
    Thank you for you help!

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    It looks like the logic board has failed, but first try a SMC reset > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    If it does not work, take the MacBook Pro to an Apple Store or reseller. You will get the MacBook repaired for free

  • My ipod 5 shut off and it wont turn back on. people say to hold down home and lock button but my home button is broken, what do i do

    My IPod 5 shut down and wont turn back on. people say to hold down home and lock button but my home button doesn't work. what do I do?

    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 another cable                     
    - 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.

    Hi there,

    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 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 15 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.
