Wow long time ago to find a thread...
Hold the power and home button while connected to your computer for 10 seconds. Then release JUST the power button and continue holding the home button and iTunes should recongnise the device in recovery and then hit restore and iTunes will proceed to wipe the phone and restore to the latest iOS your device can go too.

  • My iPhone 4S will not play music out loud. I can't turn sound up or down, it doesn't even give me the option.  I think that it thinks its docked, I've tried to blow air in it, I've tried compressed air with no luck.

    Clean iPhone charging port with clean dry toothbrush. See if fixed. If not, and if there is Warranty or AppleCare make Genius reservation and take to Apple for resolution. If no coverage, clean again, very well with toothbrush and small amount of Isopropyl Alcohol.

    Yes I have turned imessage off a number of times and that does not seem to he doing the trick, and it is not delivering them then I have to press on the photo and either chose try again or send as text message, I have had the setting on to not allow sending pictures as texts (so they can only send as imessage) since I got my phone in January and it has always worked until now, I have turned that off to allow me to send them as picture messages now but it's still not working over iMessage, I have also tried it using 3G and not wifi

    Try a resetting of your phone just to cover that base - Hold down Home and Sleep buttons for at least 10 seconds and see if the phone powers up.
    If the phone was completely dead, powering through wall socket is best approach.   I've never been able to charge off of a PC if it was completely dead.
    If all fails, bring the phone in for service since it is still covered by warranty.  

  • IPhone 4S will not work at all.

    My brand new iPhone 4S will not turn on or off.  It has the circle that is used when it is loading something, but that just stays the same.  I have entered the serial # correctly several times, and your website won't accept it.  My landphone also is not working today, so I'm unable to call.

    The fact that the speaker is able to produce sound when selecting a ringtone, should indicate that there isnt a problem with the speaker module itself.
    When playing content (i.e music), is the volume slider bar present>?

  • HT1688 my iphone 4 will not turn on all of the sudden it was off and will not do anything how do I fix it?

    HELP my iphone 4 will not do anything I can't get it to turn on!!!

    It is usually given as a communication error between Apple, iTunes (your computer), iPhone. Somewhere they are not communicating, so the iOS you are trying to install cannot be approved by Apple. Trouble shooting steps include, making sure you have Current iTunes installed, make sure your Hosts file of computer is not blocking Apple. Try restoring on another computer.

  • I downloaded an audiobook from Itunes and it only load a portion of the book.  At first it work on my iPhone,  now will not work at all on my iPhone, but works on my computer.  I cannotget it to tranfer to my iphone.

    Looking for some assistance.  I downloaded an audiobook from iTunes.  It was 11 hours long.  Originally it worked on my iPhone, but stopped working after 44 minutes into the book.  I tried to re-load the book but it would only load a portion of it and would then would not play.  I then was able to get the same half of the book loaded into my laptop, but then not onto my iPhone.  Anysuggestions, other than re-purchasing the book?

  • TS1363 My Iphone 5 will not sync with my Itunes.  I have updated my drivers, uninstalled and reinstalled my Itunes, done all the necessary steps.  Ever since the new software update it will not sync and will not even show my Iphone when i open Itunes.

    My Iphone 5 and Itunes no longer sync after I updated my IOS to 7.1  I have done multiple things to troubleshoot.  Uninstalled drivers, reinstalled drivers, uninstalled Itunes, reinstalled Itunes, etc..  It will not show my Iphone in Itunes anymore and will not sync. 

    Hello bsae14,
    I would be concerned as well if my iPhone was not recognized by iTunes.  Thank you for providing all the information with the steps you took in regards to this issue.  I found an article with a few more steps you can take (you can skip the steps you have already taken):

  • IOS 5.0.1 on iPhone 4, will not sync at all

    Hello all,
    I could not find anyone else having this problem, all the problems I found were with battery life, which knock on wood, I have never had an issue with in my iphone 4 history.
    My problem is that I updated to 5.0.1 on Friday over the wireless method on the iPhone, and since then I can not in any way, wired or wireless, sync to my iTunes anymore. I am running windows 7, and the latest version of iTunes. I house my iTunes library on an external hard drive.
    Here's what happens when I try to sync via wired...My computer is running normally, all USB devices functioning properly, I start iTunes, and then plug my iPhone into the computer.  All of my USB external hard drives now shut down.  Not all USB devices, just my hard drives.  I can tell this because I use wireless mouse and keyboard via USB.  I was synching just fine last week before the 5.0.1 update, so I'm fairly certain that's the problem, but I have no idea why...
    And wirelessly here is what happens...computer and USB devices functioning properly. Start iTunes. Plug phone into wall charger, and start wireless sync. Computer and drives continue to run normally (as opposed to hard drives turning off), but the synching process stalls for hours and never accomplishes anything.
    I know that I can most likely solve this issue by moving my library to my internal HD, but that's an unneccessary move I would like to not make. When I try to also restore down to iOS5, I get errors as well.
    Based off this, and all the other battery and contacts errors I've been reading about I would not recommend upgrading to 5.0.1 right now.
    Has anyone else had this problem? Any solutions? Recommendations?
    Thanks to everyone!

    This happens from an album.
    I am selecting a song to start playing. I see the Shuffle button (which is grey) at the top. Of course, if I select that then the album starts playing a random (shuffled) song.

  • My iPhone 3S will not allow me to upgrade. I can't download any apps and when I connected my iPhone to iTunes and tried to upgrade it, it said it was already updated. On top of that, WiFi does not work with my iPhone. What do I do to fix this?

    My dad got this iPhone for me a few months ago as a gift since I had a really awful phone before.  The only thing is, I can't seem to upgrade it to the latest software without it telling me it's already updated to iOS 4 or something like that.  (I would be able to give you the exact iOS version, but ever since connecting my iPhone to iTunes, my phone isn't responding so I can't check the settings or anything.)  I can't download any apps (I get an error message saying the software on my phone is too old) and so I pretty much am extremely limited to what I can do on this phone.  I'm very frustrated at this point and incredibly displeased with Apple's products.
    If someone could please explain to me why this is happening and what I can do to fix it, I'd be extremely grateful.
    Thanks.

    What iPhone do you have? You can check in settings>>general>> about.
    If you have a 3G you cannot update beyond iOS 4.2.1. The 3G is over 4 years old an was discontinued over 2 1/2 years ago. You need the latest ios to run the latest versions of some apps. If you have a 3GS you can update.
    If your phone is not responding, reset it by pressing and holding down both the home button ad lock/ sleep button simultaneously until the Apple logo appears.

  • My iphone is not charging just when i connect to the computer, What should i do?

    What should i do if my Iphone just charge when i connect to the computer?

    A lot of times, it is the cable. However, I had a problem similar to this a while ago and actually had to re-install itunes. See if your cable works with other devices, and then check itunes for needed updates. Hope this helps!

  • HT4993 My iPhone 4s will not turn on. I tried to reboot my phone as well and it still will not turn on. What should I do?

    This what happened. I accidentally dropped my iPhone and it blacked out. This same situation happened before, but when I rebooted it then, it worked perfectly fine afterwards. Now that this situation has happened again it is not working at all. I've looked on apple support, but it does not have this type of problem on it the page.
    So how can I fix this problem?

    sounds like you broke your phone.  Bring it to Apple for evaluation.
