when i try to get my text, the screen is blank. \ i tried to turn off my iphone and start it again to see if that would help, and it won't turn off. is there a way to turn it off other than holding the button on top down?

Do a reset, hold down the home and power button for a couple seconds until you see the apple logo.

My i pod touch crashed and is displaying a blank yellow screen and won't turn off what can i do?

My I pod crashed and now displays a blank yellow screen i can't switch it off what can I do.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My Ipad will not turn off what can I do ?

My ipad will not turn off what can i do ?

Try this.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Let it start up completely and then you can shut down if you want to do so.

Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button until you see the Apple Logo show up on the screen. This is a Reset. See if that helps. Also, make sure it's charged up :-)

IPhone won't turn off and won't sync even after I plug in my computer.

My iPhone started acting odd after my husband updated it to iOS5. It started with when I touch the apps, it responded with delay. Today, when I want to check my email. The app just simply not responding to any touch on the screen. I tried to turn off to restart, but it won't turn off. So I plug in my computer try to sync see if that can somehow makes it "budge". I successfully upload the new photos from iPhone to my MacBookPro, but after that, it won't "sync". The "sync" bottom on the itune page stay "gray". I cannot click on it. What should I do?

Try a Reset...
Press the sleep/wake button & home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release the buttons..

IPhone won't turn off or connect to wifi

I have the iPhone 4S and recently I have been encountering many problems with it. I don't know if they are problems with the hardware or the software but my facetime hasn't worked in a long time and my phone hasn't connected to wifi in the past two months. Sometimes the wifi turns off and the bar to turn it back on is dim while other times it turns on but doesn't acknowledge anything to connect to. In addition to the wifi troubles, occasionally my phone screen will turn black for a little while and after some time it will just wake up. The apple doesn't show up so I guess that means the phone isn't turning off- just sleeping. Also, sometimes my apps won't load and then my phone will automatically turn off. Occasionally, my touch screen stops acknowledging the fact that I'm touching it and other times my phone won't turn off. I hold down the power button and the phone just goes to sleep. As you can probably tell, my phone has been malfunctioning a lot and it is starting to get annoying. I don't want my apps to be deleted because I have some that are no longer in the app store and they are very valuable to me. My computer storage is too full to back up my phone though. Any suggestions on how to solve my problem without deleting my apps or any of their saved information?
Thanks,
A frustrated iPhone owner

Hard to tell. However, since the iPhone does not have user serviceable components, once you opened the device, you forfeit any warranty or post warranty support from Apple and the forum. You are going to have to try and figure this one out on your own.

IPhone won't turn on and can't recover/restore or connect to iTunes

My iPhone was updating and iOS update on 4% battery, my phone has turned off after downloading/installing and I can't turn it on, it won't connect to iTunes and I can't recover or restore, and when I press/hold any of the buttons it's still a black screen on my phone, is there any solutions?

Not a good idea to update iOS software just using the battery. Updates can take as long as an hour depending on your internet connection.
Charge the battery either form a wall outlet or your computer until it's 100%
Then restore.
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

My lock button on my phone is broken and my iphone won't turn on, what should I do? I really need help because i don't know what to do.

My lock button on my iphone is broken and my iphone turned off somehow and won't turn on now. What do I do?

Without the sleep/wake button, the only chance to turn it on is to connect it to the charger. You may have to wait for the battery to go completely dead. The only other choice would be to take the device to the Genius Bar for replacement.

My ipad mini won't turn on - what can I do?

Charged my ipad mini overnight and it wont turn on now. What can I do?

Have you tried a soft-reset to see if that gets it to boot up ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

My safari won't switch off - what can i do?

i opened a page which should have allowed me to download a mock TOCFL exam (that's the standardized chinese exam in taiwan), but instead i just got a page of gibberish and since then skype won't let me close it, also while closing tabs there's no longer an x to click, instead i have to right click and then close it that way. anyone know what's going on here? also since safari won't switch off, i have no way of trying to deinstall and then reinstall it...any suggestions?

Select  ▹ Force Quit... from the menu bar, then select Safari and press return. Do the same with Skype.
Run Software Update and install all available updates.
Reinstalling system components is rarely the solution to any problem, and certainly not to this one.
