My phone was at 100% and won't turn on, any help?

I charged my phone early in the afternoon and fell asleep to my phone being 100% on battery, I unplugged it and just sent 1 text and after about 2-3 hours later, my phone was warm and it wouldn't turn on. I tried the home + sleep button thing and it turned back on. why did my phone just decide to die even though it was at 100%?

It may not be that your iPhone died, it probably just powered off for no apparent reason or explanation. If you're really concerned about this, I would use this article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414 to restore your iPhone and restore form an iCloud backup if you have one.

I am quite worried due to the fact I have over 400 photos.

Try this First...
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...

Woke up and my phone was completely dead. Won't turn on, no charging, nothing at all. Thought maybe some kind of water damage because it was on my windowsill, but neither of the water detectors have turned a color. Help?

No that’s probably what I’ll do. I'm thinking the guys at the apple store can only do basic technical support since most of them are sales people that don't know how to physically repair phones. It seems kinda silly that, as fine as a product the iPhone is, when something like this happens they just tell you to replace the entire device without doing any proper diagnostic. If it was any other phone you could simply take it to a cell phone repair shop and they'll usually fix it. It’s almost as though Apple assumes their products will never fail so that when they do, the only solution is to replace the entire device at a cost higher then it would be if it was just a simple fix. So hopefully the local cell repair shop can do something instead of having to replace the entire phone. I'll accept the fact if I have to replace it after taking it to a few places and having some real technicians look at it, instead of a 5 minute trial and error diagnostic done by a sales associate at the apple store being quick to tell me that the phone is useless and has to be replace for several hundreds of dollars.

I left my 4s in the car for apprx 35 mins in 35 degree weather and the phone completely shut off and won't turn back on. the battery was fully charged

It probably overheated and shut down. Hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons until an Apple logo appears. This will take 10 to 15 seconds of holding both buttons.

My ipod touch got wet and won't turn on. please help

First dry the iPod.

Then
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- 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 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 iPhone 4S battery was on 1% and won't turn back on - what to do?

And I've already tried holding the home button and the power button for about 10-20 seconds, but it keeps showing the red charging symbol. I've tried three different chargers. I've never had a problem with the battery before, it's always been working perfectly and I rarely use it all up during the day. I always turn it off while I'm at work. I've had the phone since the end of July 2012, so it's not even a year old. I also have a good habit of closing all the apps I'm not using so it won't drain the battery.
Anyone with a similar problem?
Edit: Just to be clear: I've tried charging it for at least 6 hours. I turned it in to the store I bought it today for them to have a look at it and decide what my options are. I recently got a new computer and didn't even have time to sync my iPhone with iTunes before this happened. So resetting is apparently not an option either.

Okay, got my phone back from the store I originally bought it at (the Swedish equivalent to Best Buy), and they had tried charging it with an iPhone-charger with no results. However, when they tested with an off-brand charger, it started working again. I wonder why that is.
When I got home, it was on 98% and I plugged it in with my regular charger just to see if I would really need to go out of my way to buy a completely different charger. It charged up to 99%, and I then unplugged it. I will wait and see if the problem re-occurs, but as it looks now, I probably won't be needing to get the battery changed nor book an appointment with the Genius Bar I'll check in here again if that were to happen, to give my review of the Genius Bar!
Thanks for all the help again

My iPhone lock button is broken..and now the phone is dead and won't turn on! Help!?

So the lock button on my iPhone 4 is broken, 100%, and the battery died earlier today, when I plug it in, it usually turns on if it has been dead...I tried doing this for hours and nothing happened, I plugged it into 3 different chargers thinking that might be the problem. And since there isn't a apple store close to me, I went to AT&T and they told me I need to do some type of restart (I forget what it's called) it is where you hold down the home and lock button at the same time, but as you can see that wont work since my lock button Is broken. Is there ANYTHING else I can do to fix it!?

Looks like a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is the Next Step...
Be sure to make an appointment first...

If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5 and 5C. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
You will find respective repair costs in the appropriate link:
iPod Service Support and Costs
iPhone Service Support and Costs
iPad Service Support and Costs
There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
1. iResq or Google for others.
2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit

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

The computer shut off unexpectedly and won't turn on, someone help

I was using my computer and it shut off completely and it won't turn back on, is there anything I can do right now?

What model of computer is it? ...as specific as you can (model name, year, etc.), please.

My ipod turned off and won't turn back on, help! Home button doesn't work and neither does Recboot!

Hello! So I've had my Generation 5 IPOD for nearly two years. Tonight after a shower I tried to charge my IPOD (thinking it had just died because it was short on battery anyway) but it didn't turn on. I would reboot it by pressing the power and home button but sad to say, my home button stopped working about a month ago. : ( After this, I tried connecting it to a charger, two computers AND I downloaded Recboot with the extensions for a PC/Windows, it still did not want to connect. I'm not sure what to do besides maybe taking it to a Apple Store and getting the home button fixed and try to reboot it manually as I always have in the past. Any advice? Right now it's black with no signs of connecting to any machines. If I can't get the home button fixed, could I wait until the battery drains for it to just get recharge? If so how long does it take for the IPOD battery to just die so I can do this? Granted it was always sorta dying before this happened (it was red.) so it shouldn't or wouldn't take too long right?
Please! : ( Any help would be appreciated. I live in a small town and the closet Apple store is about an hour away.

If the screen and iPod does not show any life then letting the batter drain will not do anything.
If you tried another cable and tried ReBoot on another computer and still problem then your iPod has to be repaired/replaced

IOS 5 put my phone in recovery mode and won't turn back on or let me restore it, does anyone know how to fix this?

today i tried downloading ios 5 for my iphone 4. i updated all the software on my macbook pro. then when i was downloading ios 5 for my phone. it completely shut off. at first it was just showing me the screen to plug it into itunes. when i did, it would tell me to restore it because it was in recovery mode. however, it could not get approved by apple. i understand they have been bombarded today. however, now it is just showing a black screen with the loading circle on it. it wont let me turn it back on. and when i plug it into my computer it isnt recognizing it. i dont know what to do. is my phone dead forever? its been 4 hours..

If you have no other choice then put it in DFU mode. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3374810?

My phone died last night and won't turn back on again even though I've had on charge ever since and i tried to use the whole pressing both button but my top one is broke what do i do?

it has been over 20 hours now

Well, if you can't reset it, you can try hooking it up to the computer your sync with and try restoring it:
IOS RECOVERY MODE RESTORE
If the device is not recognized by iTunes, you will have to make a trip to the Apple Store.
Best of luck,
