My phone died and won't turn on

The battery was at approximatley 70% when I answered an incoming call. Two to three minutes into the call the phone shut off and won't turn back on. I've tried holding down the button on top of the phone and the round button button on the face of the phone near the bottom, but cannot get it to turn back on or respond at all. Verizon has no other advice. It appears my contacts are stored in an iCloud, but nothing else. Anyone have any thoughts on turning the phone back on?

Some of the things you can try are, in order,
1) Try to plug in the iPhone to a power source and wait for atleast 15 minutes, note if it gets warm or not.
2) Try to plug it into your computer, start up iTunes, if your device has somehow entered a DFU state, iTunes will tell you.
3) (Timing is important for this one) Hold the Power button for 5 seconds, after that, hold both HOME and POWER buttons for 15 seconds, or till when you see the Apple icon light up. If it does not, leave all buttons except HOME.
Leave it after 10 seconds if nothing happens.
4) If nothing works out, please post if it was getting warm while plugged in, and if iTunes reported it's state.

Plug in to a wall outlet and be sure it has some charge, then check http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3281 and if that doesn't help, a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, should take about 10-15 seconds, and if that doesn't work, visit an Apple store genius bar for testing by the techs.

My iphone 5 suddenly died and won't turn back on even after doing the recovery procedure. Even when I put it on charge the apple sign appears for 5-7 seconds and even after that it won't turn on. Help?!?!

My MacBook Pro died and won't turn on

My MacBook was playing music and suddenly started skipping the song. It then died - black screen and won't turn on. The little button on the bottom left side still allows the tiny circles of green to come on, but no sound, no nothing on the screen.

Which model MBP do you have?

Macbook Pro died and won't turn back on

Hi,
I have a Macbook Pro 13' (it's about 1.5 years old). I was on it a couple of hours ago when I got the running on reserve battery indicator. Before I could plug the charger in, it died. I have had the charger in for over 2 hours now and it still won't turn on. The green light is on on the charger. When I unplug the charger the first battery strength light flashes on twice but that is it. When it is plugged in the battery strength lights do not go on at all. I have been searching for an answer for over an hour but can't seem to find one. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

It's a possibility, magsafes are known to do all sorts of strange things (I've had tons of replacements), but more than likely it's your battery. Does a friend or family member have another charger you could try? That's how you'll know if it's the battery or charger. If not I would say take it to an apple store to try it out!

My phone overheated and won't turn on again

I had my phone on charger when I went to bed and once I woke up i unlocked it to check the battery status, everything was cool so I swiped to unlock and it turned off due to high temperature. I waited for few minutes but it won't turn on again, charging it again didn't help, the reset button, I tried lots of stuff, some info would be nice.

Seems to work, it's on now, but it took me almost a whole day to get it running, had some charging issues, i couldn't tell if it was charging or not, seems to be fine now, not sure if I should be worried or something..
Thanks anyways though, at least I can use it again

HT201412 MY I-PHONE DIED AND NOW WONT TURN ON

My iPhone 5 just died, and won't turn back on..

Hard boot doesn't help, could it be the battery that is dead? I had to charge it 5 times a day for some weeks before it died..
It won't charge, or connect to iTunes, and since it had to be charged 5 times a day for it to make it through ONE day, I'm thinking that it might be that the battery is just 100% dead..
Could it be something like that?
I have tried hard Boot by holding the home and powerbutton for 15 sec and more, and tried charging it in the wall for 1 hour and tried again, still nothing..

Its the integrated charging circuit..
but before jumping conclusions change the battery..only takes 2 minutes need a pentalobe scredriver for the two bottom screws phillips microdriver and a 10dollar battery, the screwdrivers are like 5 dollars and in some cases they will come with the battery (ebay)!

My iPhone 4 died and won't turn back on?

Today I was out and had my phone in my bag. It was already 23% when I left the house, and I didn't really look at it while I was out. About two hours later, I think I got a call cause my phone was vibrating, but when I checked, the screen was black and wouldnt show anything??? I figured the battery was dying or something so I just left it alone. Then when I got home, I went to charge it but nothing is happening. It's been charging for like an hour now and nothing has showed up. What can I do? I tried the home+power button but my home button is kinda messed up (I used assistive touch), so I'm not sure if it's even effective. Help please!

Time for a new phone.
Christmas is early for you.

Original iPhone Stuck in Phone Mode and Won't turn off

I can only navigate in the phone mode - dialing out, messages, keypad, favorites, etc. and can't get back to the Home Screen when I push the button. Also, the phone will not turn off - only go into sleep mode when I press that button. When it comes back on, it goes back into Phone mode. Help

Ugh dont even remind me about this issue...I bought my iPhone on a Thursday and by Saturday my iPhone started doing this. I could do nothing but stay in the phone mode, could not back out to home screen and all kinds of drama--eventually to where the phone wouold not even turn on. I took it back to the AT&T store and advised them the iPhone I had purchased 3 days prior and handed it to the sales person and he promptly advised me my iPhone was not turning on. I requested a replacement, as I had only owned the iPhone for less then 3 days. I was informed they would be happy to replace, but I would have to pay a re-stocking fee (40.00, after paying 500.00 for original- less then 3 days prior). I was dangerously close to a heart attack-lol. After several hours in store demanding a new phone, they made a call to the GM of the AT&T store, who happened to be on vacation. GM referred rep to Asst manager of the store; who it turns out was an old high school friend of mine. He exchanged the phone at no cost, which made me happy, but left a horrible taste in my mouth for AT&T. I guarantee if there was another provider, I would have (and maybe still) take my iPhone services somewhere else- as well as my second line of cell phone service for a family member. That was the worse case of cust service ball dropping I think I have even endured. It ranks up there close to my mobile me escapade, which finally was resolved.

My iPhone 4 died and won't turn back on. It's been on the charger for 17 hours.

Last night my phone went completely dead while I was doing something for school. I put it on the charger as soon as I got into the car, maybe 30 minutes after it went dead. It's been charging for 17 hours and still shows an empty battery with a flash underneath.
I've tried everything. I've attempted a hard reset multiple times, the screen goes black for maybe two seconds and then the empty battery comes back. Tried restarting my computer while my phone was plugged into it. Tried pressing the home button while plugging it into my computer. My computer isn't recognizing it when I plug the phone in.
I am desperate. I don't have the money to buy a new phone. Please help.
It hasn't been dropped. No water damage. I've never broken an iPhone before.

Your only chance is connecting in recovery mode, as explained in this article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
iTunes has to tell you that it found an iPhone in recovery mode, otherwise you can't be sure that you put it into recovery mode.

Ipod randomly died and won't turn on again HELP!

The other day I was walking home and I looked down at my Ipod and the screen was slowly fading. Within about 30 seconds the screen completely faded to nothing yet the song kept playing. I let the song play to the end thinking the screen would come back and when the song stopped the Ipod was dead. No new song began playing and the Ipod is unresponsive. It won't even respond when it sits on the dock. I don't think it should be the battery since I just replaced the battery by myself about a month ago. This is a refurbished Ipod and replacing the battery is all I have done since its purchase in January. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP! Has my crappy refurb-pod finally played its last song? It didn't even last 6 months....

Oh, I'm sorry about this. I didn't know I was supposed to do a follow-up like this. This is kind of embarrassing...
Anyway, like I said, I did find a way to fix it myself.
Um, and the mods or admins can go ahead and delete this topic if it needs to be.
Thanks guys. :3

Iphone4s just died and won't turn back on, what should I do?

Checking out apps on iPhone 4S and was about 50% battery then it just shuts down. I haven't been able to turn it back on. What should I do?

Have you tried resetting your device by pressing and holding the Home button and power button until the silver apple appears? Put it on the charger for about 10 minutes first.

My 2012 mac book pro died and won't turn on

My battery was at 0% when it went off and when I plugged it in it refused to charge.
I first I thought it was just to socket or my charger then I decided to move to another room and it still didn't work.
I then tried my charger on my sisters laptop and it worked fine . I dont know what is going on the light on the charger is a really faint green.
