Try:

- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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 another cable
- 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 MacBook Pro isn't turning on, at first it would only turn on when being plugged in by its charger and continued to stay on 0% and now it won't even turn on even when plugged into charger. What's wrong with it?

Please help

Is this an early 2008 MacBook Pro?
I observed two of these machines work perfectly for several months (different users and workflows) with no issues and with normal shutdown. The next press of the power button is greeted by about 3 - 5 seconds of DVD click, hard disk seek, and then nothing. Different batteries, chargers, and memory chips were used with no machine revival.
As these two machines were fully depreciated employer hardware, they were scrapped, rather than provided to Apple for hardware diagnostic and likely expensive repair.

My iPod touch 5 is unresponsive and won't turn on. My home button is stuck so I can't reboot it.. Any other way? My ipod turned off when I put it on the charger and now won't come back on

Your issue has nothing to do with Apple networking. You may get better results posting to one of iOS areas of the Communities.

That means it is not fully downloaded so you are streaming it. Fully download it.

Given the state your device is in you have already erased your old stuff. You have an image on the screen that says, "Connect to iTunes." That's what the image means. So you will need iTunes on your computer.

This is often due to fautly battery. Make Genius reservation and take iPhone to Apple Store for free quick battery diagnostic testing.

I have an Iphone 3gs and today I had taken some pictures and my battery was 8% i was looking at the few I had took. Then my phone died but when I plugged it into the charger and got it on I went to upload the pictures but they were deleted!

All my other pictures that i have taken are still there, it just deleted the ones I took a couple of hours before it died!
I was just wondering if there is anyway of getting them back at all? and how common is this?

Sounds like your iPhone was hacked to unlock and now updating locks back to the original carrier.
Where did you get the iPhone?

My ipod only turns on when connected to charge

Hi All,
This is the first time I have ever posted to something like this so please bear with me if I am rambling / or left out any important info!
I have a iPod Nano 3rd Gen, which I haven't used for quite a while due to me purchsing an iPhone a couple of years ago.
I decided to dig it out and update the music on there. I plugged it in to my laptop and all seemed to work fine.
I left the iPod on charge overnight using the mains adapter that I have.
Unfortunately, once I disconnected the iPod from the charger it won't turn on using the play button. I reconnected to the charger, and the iPod will switch on.
So looks like it will only turn on when connected to the power source, and won't work indepedently.
As far as I know the iPod has never been in contact with any water, as it has been kept in a bedroom drawer whilst it hasn't been used, so i don't think the problem is that the iPod has become damp in any way.
Has anybody else had a similar problem, and found a solution?
Thanks

The iPod's lithium-ion battery needs constant movement and action in order to maintain any sort of charge or capcity to charge. So given that the iPod went unused for so long and the age of the device itself, it sounds like the iPod's battery is shot and in need of a replacement.
You can choose to have Apple swap out the battery for a flat fee, send into a third party service center for a little less, or you can even purchase a replacement battery online and use one of the many numerous gudies online to walk you through the process of swapping it out.
Here is Apple's pricing. Google for third party service provider if you desire.

My ipod touch 4g is connected to the charger and it turns on but it wont charge

So my ipod was low on battery and i wanted to charge it so i leave for 1 hour and i go and turn it on and it shows the "connect to power" screen and i disconnected the charger and reconnected it and it turned on but it didnt charge Please help!

Battery does not appear to charge
Important: iPod touch cannot be charged with a FireWire-based power source.
Verify that the power source being used is working properly.
If connecting to a computer's USB port, verify it is a high-powered USB 2.0 port. Note: The USB ports on most keyboards don't provide enough power, so if you're connecting iPod touch to a keyboard, make sure it has a high-powered USB 2.0 port.
Verify the computer is turned on and not in sleep or standby mode. If iPod touch is connected to a computer that's not turned on or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPod touch battery may drain.
Try another USB port.
Try charging from a USB charger if available.
If that does not help, try another USB cable if available.
Learn more about charging the battery.
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?

Ok so my ipod screen cracked and i got a new one from the apple store but now its cracked again, but i only dropped it when i was sitting on the florr and it even had a case on it so i would like to know what happened and is it possible for me to get a n

is it possible for me to get a new one and also some of the metal on the back has been shedding why is that happening??

Screen protectors are for protection against scratches, not for protection against the iPod being dropped. As to the case, you may wish to take this issue up with the case manufacturer, though again, most claim protection only against scratches and mars, not against being dropped. Either way, such damage is not covered by the devices. warranty.
As to cost, Apple does not repair iPods, but will replace the entire iPod for a flat fee; see the Repair Pricing section here (as also mentioned by Limnos):
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/faq/
There are independent iPod repair services that may be able to replace the screen for less. Do a web search for "ipod repair". Note, though, that if you elect to have the iPod serviced by an unauthorized shop, all further warranty will be void.
Regards.

IPod won't work when iTrip is connect to car charger

When I connect my itrip to the car cigarette lighter the iPod won't work, i.e. it will plsay the current tune but the controls don't respond and it stops playing when the current tune ends. It works ok when I disconnect the power.
Ipod model M9244B version 2.3
Any ideas?

Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem that indicates a hadware problem, likely a bad battery. Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

HT1414 My iPhone 4s turns off when i remove it from the charger, but its 100% fully charged. What is the problem?

I am on version 6.1.2 and I have replaced my battery already a couple of weeks ago, so it shouldnt be a battery problem (I guess). this happened 2 days ago at first it wouldnt charge or turn on at all and today it turned on but it turns off as soon as I remove it from the charger. At the moment its on the charger but keeps on randomly turning on and off.

One thing to try is a updating, either via iTunes or OTA, to 6.1.3 to see if that cures the problem. Also, once you've updated it set it up as a new iPhone and see how it performs then. If it's fine after that try restoring from your backup to see if the problem comes back. It could be an issue with your firmware that's currently on the phone and it might be residing in your backup
