My sister's iphone4s suddenly died, refusing to open again

my sister's iphone4s suddenly died, refusing to open again. what should we do?

Have you tried to reset the iphone? Press and hold both the sleep/wake button and the home button for approx 10-15 seconds until the Apple log appears, ignoring the red slider. You should not lose any data doing this although you may need to reset any wallpaper you may have set or rearrange some apps/folders. If that doesn't work have a look at this article and see if this helps http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3281

  • Firefox locks up when I close it, then refuses to open again until I restart my PC

    Firefox refuses to open again after it freezes. This is happening every day and is fast becoming a browser that I will drop and never use again. As a long time user of Firefox I expected a more reliable product from Mozilla. The last 4 releases have been pure junk.
    I'm using Windows 7 (64Bit) with 32 mg of ram. Never had a problem in the last 10 years using Firefox, but I think the time has come to switch back IE 11 which from all reports is a fast stable browser.

    Same problem with FF37 beta. All internet loads stop. When I exit the program the window closes but process continues to run and Task Manager will not stop it. The only solution is to reboot. I have tried safe mode and a full refresh. Neither helps.

    I  am having a similar odd issue. First of all this summer i took my iphone 4 to apple because my screen had quit. I could hear calls and texts coming thru but screen was unresponsive. I was a month out of warranty so the nice fella at apple gave me a 30 day warranty, then replaced my handset with a refurb. Saturday night at dinner i was on my phine and it died. I plugged it in thinking nothing of it and went to bed. When i wooe up after the charger had been on all night all i had was the black screen with the battery (red) and lightning bolt, meaning it knew it plugged in but still did nothing. So off to apple i go. They said i was out of warranty and the problem (never said what problem) would cost 170 bucks to fix. So i went and upgraded to the iphone 5 ( figured if i'm spending that anyways may as well be on a new phone). When I got home i tinkered with the old one with all the online suggestions i could find. (Cleaning ports, hard reset, putting into recovery mode, and checking indicators for water damage which there was none). Still only saw the battery symbol. I left it alone figuring i can sell off cheap and someone else can repair. Last night for kicks i plugged it in again and it came to life! It is in recovery mode (needs to be hooked to itunes to regain functionality) but showed 100% battery charge. I went to show my bf and realized an issue. If its not plugged into the wall adaptor, it wont turn on. I figured then that if i can get it plugged in and pull it up on itunes maybe it would be fine. When plugged into the computer it wont hold enough power. It thrns on shows the apple for 30 seconds, shuts off. My ending conclusion on my own is that it needs a new battery in order to be revived. Anyone think this sounds like a reasonable conclusion? Or will i be wasting money? If i can get it restored to functional, cheaply i can give to my bf (his pos lg phone is almost toast) or sell it.

    No, I don't think anyone here would know.

    Hello!, my name is jan and i am using lightroom 2 for many years. I have an original set-up disk with a 24 digit serial number. I had never problems wih installation of lightroom. suddenly lightroom refuses to start when I try to from a picture i have taken with my nikon D500 and transferred to WINDOWS 8.1.  i have tried to re-install lightroom : the procedure asks for the serieal number , but refuses to accept the number that always worked. PLEASE help!!  jan

    If you are certain you have the right serial number, there really isn't much we can help you with here. You might try downloading and installing the last version of Lightroom 2. It will be the trial version, but when the trial screen appears there is an option to indicate that you have a serial number. Incidentally, Lightroom serial numbers start with the first four digits being 1160.

  • Adobe Reader XI suddenly refuses to open PDFs.

    Adobe Reader XI in my wife's pc suddenly refuses to open PDFfiles. A message pops up saying: EULA display has stopped to function. I have reinstalled Reader XI several times. Installation runs fine, but it still refuses to open. During installation I have disabled antivirus programme Norton Internet Security. We have tried Reader 10 and 9, but they don't function either. Earlier we have opened thousands of PDFs. We never had this problem before! We use Windows 7 and Explorer. What can we do? Please help! Lisbeth and Carsten

    I had the same problem just now and what worked for me was i archived a email in MS outlook using the Adopbe PDF dropdown menu and then I had full access to X Pro again.
    Hope that this helps

  • X-Fi Fatality suddenly died on me

    !X-Fi Fatality suddenly died on me? Today I resumed my PC from sleep mode when I got a blue screen. unfortunately I didn't get chance to record the error message.
    When I rebooted the PC I had no sound whatsoever. I ran the console application to check for sound levels and it said there was no supported sound card installed!
    I checked the device manager and it reported there was no soundcard inside the PC.
    I have tried the sound card in another PCI slot but the sound card doesn't show in Windows.
    I have also checked power leads etc. The red light comes on as usual. I have inspected the card carefully and nothing seems amiss. What's really wierd is the soundcard appears on the device list after the BIOS POST process just before Windows boots!
    Anyone got any ideas?
    Many thanks in advance!
    Here is the spec of My PC:
    Motherboard: Gigabyte X38-DQ6 Bios F8h
    Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad E6600 Step: B Rev: G0
    Memory: Corsair Dominator CM2X024-8500C5D x 4
    Graphics: BFG Nvidia 8800 Ultra OC 768MB
    OS: Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit) with all the latest updates
    Latest Windows 7 Drivers are installed from the Creative Website.

    Had scenario 3 w/ a Fatalty in an Antec case. Turned out that when screwing down the card it would pull out of its PCI socket ever so slightly. Light was still on but the card was nowere to be seen by the OS. Had to bend the bracket a bit and leave out the screw for the card to be fully settled :smileyindifferent: Worked ever since.

    I use Photoshop Elements 12 daily. It seems there IS NO tech support at Adobe itself!  It suddenly refuses to open at all and sends a report to Apple. What do I do? Can't continue to operate my web magazine without it! (Yosemite 10.10.1, 21.5" iMac)

  • My iphone4S suddenly became totally screen blackout, I try to call it from my other cellular still its ringing how can I open it?

    To all concern,    
         My iphone4S suddenly became totally screen blackout,I try to call it from my other mobile its still ringing at the vibration still working how can I fix it,please help me Apple Communities

    Try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose data by resetting.
    If this does not work, connect in recovery mode to your computer and restore, explained here:

  • My Talk Talk mail box suddenly refuses to open.

    I have a Tiscali/talk talk provider.
    Suddenly and for no apparent reason the system refuses to open my mail box, it says I have 'undefined' mail (instead of 6 or 17 or whatever)/
    I have spoken to Talk Talk who say most of their customers using your Mozilla Firefox are experiencing this problem, which is being addressed and technicians are working on the problem.
    They have checked out for other contributing factors and apparently there are non.
    So what is causing the problem? Why? And when can I expect to access my emails there. The matter is now getting urgent.
    thank you.
