My iphone won't power on. It just stopped working. What do I do?

My Iphone won't power on. It just stopped working. It' been working fine with no porblems whatsover. Go figure. What do I do?

I had this same issue today and my battery said it was 98% life. I only bought this iphone 5 exactly one month ago new, Wonder if the battery is already having issues this early. I charge it every evening and I have never gone in a single day below 73% battery life.

Iphone won't power up.

My iphone won't power up since yesterday morning. The back of it got a little wet on Saturday night but was working fine until yesterday. Any suggestions ?

It would help if you would clarify what " I have tried everything" means.
Have you tried restart, reset, restore?

"If something is not working right, restarting or resetting iPhone will likely solve the
problem.

HT201412 iphone won't power on support answer doesn't help. any suggestions

Iphone 5 won't power on and shuts down by self. I have updated operating system fully charged the battery and restored the phone
all things suggested by on line support. Anyone have any suggestions

If no change after trying all things included with on-line support, there is nothing else to try. The iPhone includes a one year warranty.
Call AppleCare or make an appointment at an Apple Store if there is one nearby.

IPhone won't power on or show battery icon after discharge.

My iPhone4 ran out of battery. I plugged as soon as I could after it ran out (within 15 mins) and charged it overnight. It won't power on this morning and does not show the charged battery icon on the screen. The phone is only 4.5 months old and has never been left in a car or extreme heat. I always let the bettery run down to <10% before charging and then charge back to full capacity. I have tried holding down the home key and the sleep/wake buttons individually and together and nothing. Any suggestions?

Thanks for the help. I had tried to connect it to the computer on my own and found out that my version of iTunes must be too old to talk to my iPhone4. I am still running 10.4.11 on my PowerBook G4 which uses an older version of iTunes. I don't use the music feature on my phone to conserve my battery for Apps and other features I really like and leave the music to my Shuffle. Guess I am really lucky it doesn't work as I would hate to loose my photos of my new grandson. I need to find a quick way to send them to backup storage.
When I disconnected after trying the computer and tried your suggestion of holding it until I saw the symbol, it finally worked. Guess I did not hold them both together for long enough. The battery only shows 31% even though it was on wall charger all night. I will use it as is today and charge it overnight again to see if it gets a full charge.

Iphone won't power on after screen replacement

So I've dropped my Iphone 4S once and screen showed blue vertical lines. I replaced the screen for about $120. After 6 months or so I dropped it again and the screen cracked. I decided to replace the screen on my own so I got a new one and replaced it, but the phone doesn't power on after the screen replacement. I plugged it on charger, did a hard reset but still nothing. I plugged it on pc and it was recognized by the itunes! As it was plugged on pc, I did a reboot again and it left itunes as if it was powered on and suddenly powered off. Still plugged in I tried to power it on again, it was recognized again by the itunes but the screen still wasn't working. Another thing is that it burns a lot without even being on charger or on pc, and I need to take the battery off.

Sorry. There's not much we can suggest. Apple won't touch that phone now.
Try looking for advice someplace like ifixit.com.

Iphone won't power on

I just bought a used IPhone 2 days ago and everything was working fine. Today it went into sleep mode with 35% battery remaining. An hour later I pressed the home button and nothing happened. Then I tried the hold button and nothing. I plugged in the charger cord - nothing. I connected the USB cable to my computer - nothing.
As a last resort I pressed and held the hold and home buttons at the same time. The phone powered up (Apple logo) and everything was fine.
I got up this morning and noticed the clock was 30 minutes slow. I went into SETTINGS to make sure Date & Time were set to AUTOMATIC. I happened to notice that WIFI was off and I was unable to swipe the button to on. I powered off and then on again. Now the time was correct and WIFI was on.
BTW, I'm running IOS 6.1.3
Any ideas on what happened?
Is this a sign of an impending failure?
Thanks for your help.

Was it out of battery life before it died? or nearly? if so..
Press the power on button and the home button at the same time and keep them pressed.
If nothing happens, connect to a power source ( wall, or computer with USB) and then let it juice up for about 10 minutes ( even if it doesn't look like it's charging )
This should work.

Ios8 iphone won't power off

I updated to iOS 8 last night on my iPhone 5. Now I have all kinds of problems. The power button diesn't respond, so I can't power down. I can't close an open app with the double tap and up swipe. Some apps just freeze, like massaging. Ffter a double tap to close an app (which I alredy said does not work), I can't get back to the home screen; I have to wait for maybe 5 or 10 seconds for it to go back on its own. Mail doesn't download. What's going on?

Hey ChrisFromMaryland,
Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing multiple issues with your iPhone 5. To completely isolate these issues, it may be best to backup and restore your device as new:

IPhone won't power down

My iPhone turns off and comes immediately back on

I am also having same problem..I bought a new phone 2 weeks ago...I went to apple service center...the are saying its a hardware problem...

I dropped my iphone 4s and now it won't power up, I dropped my iphone 4s and now it won't power up

I just dropped my phone onto asphalt from the car, about a 2.5 foot drop. The phone was wearing a case and no damage was done to the phone. the phone was off when I picked it up and will not power up. Any suggestions for how to fix this myself?

Apparently some damage to the iPhone did occur. Using a case doesn't guarantee zero damage when dropped depending on the case.
If the iPhone won't power on the normal way and the same with a reset, make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby.

Please Help! My iPhone 4 won't power on!

iPhone 4, out of warranty coverage, won't power on.
    1.    It has about 60% battery before it dead, but suddenly it became black screen and not responsive (like powered off).
    2.    Whatever I did, like "holding the power button and home button together for 10-25 sec and then pressing the power button again" etc. it just won't power on, no Apple logo!
    3.    But I can seen the "emergancy call" screen when I plugged it with my laptop and it just told me "No Service" at the upper left corner (status bar of iPhone 4).
    4.    iTunes can see it, but only when it was in Recovery mode or DFU mode.
    5.    I also tried to restore it to factory settings in iTunes, but it always gives me an error with various error codes, like 2001, 2006, etc. I also tried restore it under Windows or Mac, but was out of luck too!
    6.    Finally I bought a iPhone 4 battery replacement and replaced the old one with the new one, but nothing changed as if it wasn't replaced its original battery.
    7.    It keeps rebooting at every 10 min or so when It was plugged into my laptop without any operations (pressing any buttons).
    8.    It can be "powered on" only when it was plugged into a computer. It will IMMEDIATELY be in "dead mode" as long as I disconnect it from the computer (like taking out a battery from an iPhone that is powered on)!
    9.    Everything worked fine before it dead, I don't know what happened to it! I am so frustrated!
Please help! Thank you so much!

USB Problem, possibly bad Cable.
I misread your original post "It keeps rebooting at every 10 min or so when It was plugged into my laptop".
I thought you had a boot loop problem, but you say "rebooting when plugged into laptop" this is not the typical boot loop problem, because you had the iPhone connected to laptop.
Connected by what, obvioulsy a USB Cable, Error 2006, is most often due to faulty USB Cable.
Clean that Dock Port Very Well especially with Isopropyll Alcohol, get a good USB Cable, try a different USB port on computer, or try a different computer.

HT4061 My iPhone prompted me to download the latest version of iOS7. I did, and now my phone won't power on. It just shows an iTunes icon on a black screen.

My iPhone prompted me to download the latest version of iOS7. I did, and now my phone won't power on. It just shows an iTunes icon on a black screen. When I connect my phone to iTunes on my laptop, the only option it gives me is to restore my phone's factory settings. But won't this erase all my photos, contacts, etc? Any suggestions?

It's in recovery mode. You don't have a choice. You have to restore the phone. Anything that was on it is already gone.
If you've been backing up/syncing on a regular basis, you won't lose anything except what's changed since the last backup.

My iphone won't switch on. I've tried holding the power and home button more than 30 seconds up to a few minutes but it didn't switch on and went straight to recovery mode. It died of a low battery and i already fully charged it i checked with my itunes.

i really need help here. I have only used my iphone for a month. my iphone won't switch on. it died of a low battery and i've already fully charged it and usually before it even fully charged, it will turn back on right but in my case nothing happened. i've tried holding the power and home button for 30 seconds and up to 2-3 minutes but no logo appear. it went straight to recovery mode. there's nothing wrong with my cable, i checked with itunes and this happened once a week ago but it did switch back on after i tried a few times but now it just won't switch on. i also have problems with my screen as there's some noises to the screen (i hope you get me) and when i turned the camera on, it was as if the whole screen is shaking. i'm currently studying in the middle east and there's no apple store here so i cannot use my warranty. i will only be back home in summer. please help me what should i do to at least switch my iphone on first.

I did a little bit of experimenting. I have an iPad original versions myself. I took it out of the box knowing that I haven used it in months and I expected the battery to be dead and sure enough the battery was as dead as I imagined it would be. For the first 30 minutes I experienced exactly what you are experiencing, but then the iPad suddenly powered up on its own (like it does when plugged into the charger) and I am using it now to type this response to you.
My point is that I am starting tothink that your battery has suddenly died on you for some reason or you have a hardware problem now. I would still try leaving the iPad charge for a while longer - maybe even overnight - and then try again in the morning. Unplug the iPad and try resetting with the home and sleep buttons. Try plugging the iPad in again. Unplug it, try restarting again. Let it charge for a while again.
After trying something like that, if it still will not start up, then I think it's time for a trip to an Apple Store and see what the Apple Techs think.
