My screen is locked on my 4S and I can not turn off phone

My screen is locked on my 4S I PHone. I can not turn off the phone and everytime I touch the screen Siri reports the action.

Have you tried resetting your iPhone?
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds).
No data will be lost.

Hello houseman06
Check out the troubleshooting steps in the article below to get your iPad nano back up and running. Also check to make sure that the lock button is not on preventing it from being un responsive.

What happenw when you try to turn it off?
iOS: Screen does not rotate
Not all app have a landscape mode.

When my phone is not plugged into the charger or computer, it will not turn on at all; even though it is not dead. When it's plugged into the computer, it will go to a white screen with a grey apple icon and then it will turn off again and repeat. IOS7

Try this step and if you cannot get your device into recovery mode there is a chance you have a hardware failure and you need to call apple to see what service options you have.

I have Iphone 5 and updated to IOS 8... I can not receive a call, the Screen become black and I can not answer the phone call

Hey there jjroca,
It sounds like you are unable to make or recieve phone calls because the screen goes black. I would start by quitting all the running apps on the device:
iOS: Force an app to close
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that restart the device and test the issue again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
If that does not resolve the issue, I would use the troubleshooting in the following article, named:
iPhone: Troubleshooting issues making or receiving calls
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Sterling

HT1414 My Ipod Touch have a black screen when an app shut down and I can not shut down the Ipod. The screen is still black and I did the press two buttons solution and it doesn't work. What I have to do now?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- 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.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

When I try to exit a video on the internet I received a screen asking if I was sure I want to leave. It to not have a confirmation tag. But it has prevented Safari from shutting down. Now I can not turn off my Mac? How do I reset?

What kind of videos are you watching?
You need to force quit Safari, but hitting Command-option-esc, and force quit Safari.

HT4113 Can not turn off passcode lock

I can not turn off passcode lock. I see it and it is grayed out. I can change the password, etc. but I can not turn it off I plugged the phone into a friends computer a few days ago to charge it. Does that have something to do with it?

There is an exchange account on the device and the Admins of that account require a passcode lock on the device.

I set up Keychain and do not have access to the telephone I gave. Now I can no longer connect my ipad to my windows computer. I can not turn off Keychain...it is awaiting authorization from the SMS on the telephone I do not have access to.

I set up Keychain and do not have access to the telephone I gave. Now I can no longer connect my ipad to my windows computer, itunes does not automatically open when I plug in the USB. I can not turn off Keychain in my ipad since authorization is pending awaiting the code sent by SMS, which I can not get. Can someone advise how to get rid of Keychain. Should I cancel my icloud account?

I appreciate your help.
Have reset the ipad, but that changed nothing. I can not turn off Keychain, iit remains "pending approval". Probably, the only thing to do is to close my icloud account...which I hate to do since there is a lot of data saved there. But, I am unable to back the ipad up on my Windows 8 computer because itunes no longer opens when the ipad is attached.
Oh well...computers are computers and it is impossible to cover 100% of the situations.
Keychain iss not the best app for someone who lives in 3 different countries.
Thanks

HT1430 I downloaded the lateest update and I can't turn off my apps like I did on 6os. The 7os is different and I can't seem to find out if apps turn off now by just closing them. Can anyone explain this to me? Please

Double tap the Home button and swipe the app preview page up
iOS 7 also allows apps to run while they aren't open.
You can manage these here:
Settings > General > Background App Refresh
