My iPhone4 won't come on or charge

I've tried reseting it on the charger. And when I hooked it up to the computer itunes automatically pops up. But a message pops up and says the iPhone update server is unavailable (probably because my internet is down) Do I need an update or a new phone?

Mine did the same thing today! I've had no problems at all with the battery until suddenly this afternoon when it completely drained and now won't come back on. My phone is relatively new so it's hard for me to believe it's really a battery issue. It's so frustrating! My cell phone is my only phone so this leaves me without anything at all.

My iPhone turned itself off and won't come on or charge, after I already restarted it once

My iPhone 5s has turned itself off and won't come on or charge again I have already restarted it by holding the on/off switch and home button and it come back on and was working fine, but after an couple of hours it's turned itself back off again!! And won't let me restart it again. I don't know what's caused it as it was working fine yesterday and I hadn't dropped it or gotten it wet, what else can I do??

A phone that is turned off wont receive calls. You could try to do a couple things: plug it in (even though it is fully charged), press and hold the power button down extra hard. Press and hold the power AND home buttons extra hard. Take it to the apple store.

If this doesn't resolve it, there is more than likely a hardware issue going on.

HELP, my iphone4 won't power on or charge

My Iphone 4s got so hot I couldn't touch it a few days ago, and now it has powered off and I can't get it to charge or power on, help??

This is sounding like something that would be best addressed by an Apple technician. You can take it to an Apple Store if you have one near you or contact Apple at the appropriate phone number from this list.

Ipad wont come on or charge. Held the sleep/wake and home botton to restart and still nothing

ipad won't come on or charge. Tried holding the sleep/wake and home button and still nothing

Hi Sharbear24,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand your iPad will not charge or turn on. I know you have tried resetting the iPad and still get no response. One step you may not have tried is putting the iPad into recovery mode and attempting the restore in iTunes.
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3281
Resolution
If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
Let it charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged. Learn more about charging iPhone and iPod touch, or iPad.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more aboutrestoring iOS software.
If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
If the device will not go into recovery mode and restore and you cannot get any response at all, it may be necessary to continue with step 6 listed above and contact Apple.
I hope this helps,
-Joe

You should have turned your MBP off! Keeping it on sleep w/o use for 3 weeks makes no sense. As others have already stated, you will need to take your comp to a repair shop. More than likely you need a new battery.

Hi, Jennifer.
First, try resetting the device. The first article will walk you through this process. I am unsure which iPod nano you have so I will include the basic article. From there, select your version for troubleshooting steps.

My iPhone has suddenly stopped working. It now says the battery is dying and to charge it. After charging it for over an hour, there is no change. The power won't come on, and I am left with a blank screen advising me to plug my phone into the charger.

Try different USB Cable, try different Charger. Clean iPhone charging port with clean dry toothbrush. If still problem and you have Warranty or AppleCare, make Genius reservation and take iPhone to Apple for resolution. If no coverage, most likely it could be battery or charging port assembly that need replacement.

My iphone4s won't charge while being plugged into any charger/ iPod dock

My iphone4s won't charge while being plugged into any charger/ iPod dock

If the iPhone won't charge when connected to the power adaptor that was included with the iPhone, the same when connected to your computer, and no change when connected to any charger, do you have access to another cable to rule out a problem with the cable being used?
If no change with a known good cable, there is a hardware problem with the iPhone.
Call AppleCare or make an appointment at an Apple Store if there is one nearby.

Have a G3 pismo, works great, but when I plug in the power cord, the light won't come on to indicate its charging. It is charging, and the battery is good, its just that the light won't come on. Could it be something with the backup battery?

I have a G3 bronze keyboard that works, with a good battery, but when the power supply is plugged in, the charging light on the back of the laptop
will not come on. It is charging however, and have two different apple power adapters and both will charge the main battery, it's just that the light won't come on.
Did a reset of the pmu, but no changes. The date stays current, but wondering if the backup battery could be getting weak and affecting it , or is something else going on?

The power connector in the G3 PowerBook is a weak link. Removed, it looks like this:
[image from http://microdocusa.com/specials.html ]
The connector probably hasn't failed, but the solder joints where "legs" on the connector attached to the logic/power board are under a lot of stress after 10 years of use. Little bumps and tugs on the power cord eventually degrade the connection. You can check for looseness easily---see if the connector feels loose when you GENTLY wiggle it with a fingertip. It should have zero play if it's still firmly attached. You can also plug in the power adaptor and see if slight movements if the plug make the light turn on. Pretty diagnostic of a loose connector.
The date stays current,
Make sure you are doing this check correctly. If you have an always-on internet connection, the date/time are fed froma network time server and will always read properly unless you test with the internet connect turned off or disconnected.

My iPhone4 won't turn on even after being charged for 1 hour and when I plug it into my computer nothing happens

My iPhone4 won't turn on even after being charged for 1 hour and when I plug it into my computer nothing happens. PLEASE HELP

I have a similar (if not the exact same) problem! Here are some more details if they are helpful.
My iPhone 4 died earlier today and will not turn back on. It seemed that the battery died while it was not in use. I attempted to charge it on one charging cord in multiple wall outlets and none worked. Assuming it was a malfunction in the cord, I took my phone home to try charging it there.
Again, I attempted charging it in multiple outlets with a different cord than previously used. None of these seemed to work, though they would flash the Connect to Power screen for a brief moment before returning to a black screen. I assumed that my phone was simply so depleted of battery that it needed a long charge.
I charged it for 30+ minutes without any success, then attempted to charge it through my MacBook instead of through a wall outlet. iTunes did not even recognize that my phone plugged in (and still hasn't). I've attempted charging it for an extended period of time (1+ hour) with no luck. Sometimes when I press the Power button it will flash the Connect to Power screen once more before returning to black.
The Apple logo never appears, nor does any apparent progress on charging. I have attempted holding down the Power and Home buttons simultaneously for 10 - 30 second increments. Still no luck. There is no reason anything should be happening with this phone that I can identify.
I have no warranty and just recently replaced my previous phone which had had similar problems before completely crashing. This is a phone new to me that was previously used but in almost new conditions and factory reset by Apple prior to my purchase.
Does this mean that my phone battery is dead?
Is there anything else I can do??
