My iphone wont turn on but i can still receive calls only the screen stay black and the home and off button wont affect it

I used my house phone to call the iphone to see if it will help and my iphone rang but i couldnt do anything about it. The screen just stayed off  and the home and on/off button wont affect it.

Reset the device by pressing and holding the home and power buttons for 15-20 seconds until the white Apple logo appears.

  • I dropped my iphone 4 and the screen wont turn on, but i can still recieve calls and texts based from the sounds. What should i do?

    My iphone 4 was dropped on the bottom right corner, and the screen did not crack at all. The screen won't turn on, but alerts and noises come from the phone when i get a notification. What can i do?

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
    If this does not resolve the issue, take the device to Apple for an Out of Warranty replacement.

  • Has anyone had trouble with the LG 3 Cosmos when a call comes in; I am not able to hear from the caller, but, they can hear me?  The volumn is turned up but I can't seem to resolve the issue?  Thanks

    Oh no, Robinbird18! This is not what we like to hear about your cell phone. It makes it pretty hard to have a conversation with someone when you can't hear them. If you make a phone call out are you able to have a conversation with someone without any issues? How long has this been going on? Have you tried to use the phone on speaker phone to see if that works at all? Please keep us posted.   KevinR_VZW Follow us on Twitter @VZWSupport If my response answered your question please click the "Correct Answer" button under my response.

  • I've heard of iPhones being cloud locked but you can still use them as a regular iPod touch, that's what my sister does at least. But what happens if an iPod is like that?

    I was looking at this iPod 5 on Ebay earlier and in the description it said iCloud locked. I've heard of iPhones being cloud locked but you can still use them as a regular iPod touch, that's what my sister does. But what does it mean when an iPod is cloud locked? Can I not do certain things? I would just like to know this in case I decide to buy. Thanks.

    Depends on your carrier and data plan.
    With ATT in the US for example, you can FaceTime via ATT's cellular network if you have a shared data plan only.

    - Charge the iPod for half an hour.  Then reset the iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - if still not working, connect to your computer. If iTunes sees the iPod, restore the iPod.
    - If still problem, place the iPod in recovery mode and then try to restore the iPod.  For recovery mod see:

    You have your mute button on.  In Settings check to see if you have Lock Orientation checked or Mute checked on the right hand side.  If you have Mute checked, all you need to do is click the mute button above the volume control buttons on the upper right hand side of your iPad.  If you have Lock Orientation checked in settings, you double click your home button and the most recent apps will appear.  Swipe your finger to the right until the Mute icon appears on the left side.  Touch it and you will unmute system sounds.

    I believe the keys on an imac are F11 and F12, for dark / bright respectively.
    Try that, I think it'll work.
    If not, then try out all the "F" keys, one of them will work.

  • If someones is using my account/apple id can they receive calls or messages too?? and how can i notice  if someones using my apple id??

    if someones is using my account/apple id can they receive calls or messages too?? and how can i notice  if someones using my apple id??

    You cannot make your @icloud.com address the login address for the ID. However you can change your ID, currently a Gmail one, to any other functioning non-Apple email address. The Gmail address would then no longer access your account, and so even if someone were to obtain posession of it (is that even possible) it wouldn't allow them to get into your account.
    If you want to change your ID to another email address please follow the procedure outlined below, particularly noting the first step.
    Firstly, if you have 'Find My iPhone/iPad/iMac' enabled on any of your devices, turn it off.
    Create a new email address, for example  at Yahoo or Gmail, or anywhere convenient (or you can use an existing address as long as it has never been associated with an Apple ID).
    Go to http://appleid.apple.com and click 'Manage your Apple ID'. Sign in with the current ID.
    Where it says 'Apple ID and primary email address' and gives your current ID email address, click 'edit'.
    Enter your new address and click 'Save changes'.
    Now you will need to go to each of your devices and sign out in System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud - 'Sign out' on a Mac, 'Delete this account' on an iOS device (this will not delete the account from the server).
    Then sign back in with your new ID. Your iCloud data will disappear from your devices when you sign out, but reappear when you sign back in.
    I re-iterate: before you start, turn off 'Find My Mac' (or whatever) or you will need the services of Support.

  • In iOS 7 you can still make calls from the locked screen. Just swipe the missed call numbers to the right. Is this a bug?

    In iOS 7 you can still make calls from the locked screen. Just swipe the missed call numbers to the right. Is this a bug?

    How is it a security breach? You're free to turn off lock screen notifications for the phone app so that no one can do that.... even if they can, they can only call the number that called you... nothing else. (well, except for 900 or whatever the emergency services number is where you are, but that's required by law).

    Because Apple's currently having trouble with the iMessage and FaceTime servers. Nothing can be done from your end.

  • I'm trying to install a new samsung 27" series 7 750 monitor. I have a macmini. when i plug the cord in between the computer and the mknitor, the screen goes white, but no display. When not plugged into the computer the screen stays black and cycles

    I'm trying to install a samsung series 7 750 monitor for use with my mini mac. When I plug the computer to the monitor I get a blank screen, no picture. When not plugged in to the computer the screen is black and a square displAys that says analog, HDMI 1, HDMI 2. Any ideas?

    Hey there saraszeg,
    It sounds like you are trying to use an external monitor with your Mac Mini but cannot get more than a gray screen. You can use the following steps to help troubleshoot the Mac side of things here:
    Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1573
    Remove all display cable extenders, KVM switches, or other like devices and retest to determine if the issue is resolved.
    Try unplugging the video adapter or cable and then plug it back in.
    If more than one video adapter is in use (or "daisy-chained"), troubleshoot by using only one adapter.
    Example: A mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter connected to a DVI to HDMI adapter is an unsupported configuration because there is a series of adapters in use.
    If available, try using a different display and or adapter (or use a different connector by using DVI instead of VGA, for instance).
    Reset the system
    You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.
    Reset the resolution
    Start by resetting the Mac's parameter RAM. If the display does not come up, was previously set to an unsupported resolution, and still results in no video:
    Start up in Safe Mode.
    From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
    Choose Displays from the View menu to open the preferences pane.
    Select any resolution and refresh rate that your display supports.
    Restart your computer.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • I locked my ipod before i went to bed the other night and i tried to turn it on the next morning and the screen stayed black and now i was wondering what i could do to try and fix it.(besides plugging it into itunes)

    i locked my ipod before i went to bed a few nights ago and in the morning when i woke up i tried to turn it on but the screen stayed black so i put it on the charger to see if it was dead or not but it wasnt. i left it on the charger for an hour or two thinking it will turn on but nothing happened and i just tired to connect to itunes and nothing happened.

    Hi,
    Try a Reset of the Phone... You will Not Lose Any Data...
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    The Apple logo will Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 10 - 15 Seconds...
    Turn the Phone On...
    If that does not help... See Here:
