  • 5c shut off automatically and wont turn back on

    My iPhone 5c shut off automatically and wont turn back on. I tried to turn it back on and it didn't work, so then, I went to plug it into the charger. It didn't start up or show the apple logo, it just vibrated every five seconds. So after awhile I went on to iTunes and tried to see if I could reset the factory settings, after it attempted to download it said that I needed to type in my password on my phone, but how was I suppose to do that if I can't turn my phone on in the first place??? (By the way, I accidentally dropped it, about five inches off of the ground, about an hour prior to this happening. so I don't know if dropping it had anything to do with it, because it seemed fine after I picked it up.) Help. Really, really, REALLY need it. thanks.

    If a SMC reset does not help, make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar for a free evaluation.

  • My screen on my iPhone 4s is gone blank and wont turn back on. Even when i reset the phone it is just blank. I know the phone is on because when i change the switch on the side it vibrates.

    my screen on my iPhone 4s is gone blank and wont turn back on. Even when i reset the phone it is just blank. I know the phone is on because when i change the switch on the side it vibrates.
    Also before this the phone wasnt picking up any signal so it worked basically as an ipod.
    How much would it cost to repair this problem?

    Hello ozzy9294,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    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.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

  • I have a life proof case my phone was in a hot tub for 30 sec and it turned its self off and wont turn back on what do i do ??

    You can try putting it in bag with rice for about 4 or 5 days and the try to turn it on.  The rice will help the drying of the iPhone.  Do not attempt to turn it until you take it out of the rice.
    If it does not work after the rice, then you know you have to replace the iPhone.  This is very likely so after 30 seconds in a hot tub, but do give the rice a try.  If you can get a hold of some silica crystals, a better drying agent than rice, that would be good too.

  • My ipad will not turn on/charge, itunes will not recognize ipad, has been charging for hours power and sleep button did not work

    My ipad will not turn on/charge. has been charging for hours. Itunes will not recognize it and i have tried the power/sleep button as well. PLEASE HELP!

    Please tell me that it has NEVER been jailbroke.  If it hasn't been, here are some standard repair procedures:
    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

  • I was using my ipad 2 and i got up to use the bathroom and 2 minutes later it was shut off and wont turn back on. what is wrong?

    I was using my ipad 2 and got up to use the bathroom and 2 minutes later tried to use it and it was shut off and wont turn back on. What is wrong?

    We really can't tell you what happened, but you can get your iPad up again, by rebooting:
    Hold the power and home button simultaneously for at least 10 seconds (hold past the swipe to shut down) and when the Apple logo appears, let go of both buttons and your iPad will come back to life. 

  • I was charging my ipod touch and it was almost fully charged and shut off and wont turn back on. what can i do to turn it back on?

    can anybody help me? i was charging my ipod touch and it was almost fully charged and it randomly shut off and will not turn back on, anybody know how to fix it?

    Try the remaining items of:
    - 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 Iphone shut itself down and wont turn back on?

    I broke my lock button about 2 months ago, and ive never had any problems. i used accesability touch to lock my phone, and sat in my living room. A little while later, i tried to open up my iphone by pressing the home button, and it wont turn back on. its completely black. I've tried plugging it up, ive tried plugging it up to my computer, but itunes doesnt even come up. i cant do a hard reset, because my lock button is broken. I dont want to get my lock button fixed, try to do a hard reset, and it turn out its a completly diffrent issue. Please try and help me solve this issue! I just got my iphone 4. I don't want a $250 dollar paper weight!

    Charge it for 15 minutes with the wall charger, then hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons for at leat 15 seconds or until an Apple logo appears.
    If that fails or nothing happens at all the phone is broken. If something happens (like any sort of screen display) but the phone does not restart within 5 minutes see: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

    i need help ASAP

    You may have to try to force it into restore mode. See this support document. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808. You may have to do this more than once. If this doesn't work, then you will need to make an appointment with the Genius Bar to have the hardware evaluated.
