Old iPhone won't turn on
So I activated my new iPhone and then I was doing something on my old iPhone and it froze up. So I held down home and power to restart it and now it won't turn on. The apple comes up and stays for a while but then the screen just goes black. Any ideas? Plugging it into the computer or wall charger does the same thing. Apple comes up for a few seconds and then it goes black again.
If it is in DFU mode (maybe even if it isn't)
Power it off first (or let it go black in your case)
Hold the power button for 10 seconds
Without releasing the power button also hold the home button for 30 seconds
Without releasing the home button, let go of the power button and continue to hold for 5-10 seconds (until something happens)
It should either start booting up or go black. If it goes black hold the power button to turn it on.

Reset iphone won't turn back on
reset iphone won't turn back on
Your post is extremely vague and several months old but hopefully this info can help others seeking a solution. I too had a problem with my iPhone (3gs in my case) not coming back up.
What happened -- I was using it normally and it rebooted and was stuck on the apple for a long time and wouldn't ever get past it. So I tried to reboot it by pressing power + home but it would just reset and never power off, and get stuck every time.
What I did to fix it -- I actually had to just remove the SIM card then reboot the phone. After it came back up I put the SIM card back in. It froze up for a short time after that as the service reactivated. But then it is back to normal now finally. Whew! -
I Recently bought a new computer and I need to transfer all my iTunes data from my old computer to the new one, how can I do that? And by the way, my old computer won't turn on
Hello Nousernamebrah
Well get get your music from your old computer to your new computer, the old computer would have to work and turn on to access the files to be copied over. You also can access any previous purchased music and download it to your new computer as well. Check out the articles below for more information.

hello! i went to the Genius Bar and they told me my logic board needed to be replaced on my old white macbook 13". however, i need to get my data and information from my old macbook but my old macbook won't turn on. i was told by Genius Bar that the hard drive could be accessed via the 3 screws when the battery was removed and the hard drive could be turned into a external hard drive once removed. that way i could transfer my music, movies, pictures, etc. they told me that Best Buy could do the data transfer for me. i went to Geek Squad but they told me the hard drive wasn't accessable behind those 3 screws, that the ram was there instead. i just want to transfer my data. please help!
Your Geek Squad wasn't very geeky. the hard drive is right next to the RAM.
Here's the three screws
Here's the hard drive tab that pulls the hard drive out.
Here's the hard drive out and you can see the RAM in it's slots. -
My nano and iPhone4 were face to face for a few seconds and now my iPhone won't turn on. It doesn't do anything. I had just charged it. How do I get my iPhone going again? What happened?
Reset your phone:
Press the sleep/wake button & home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release. -

I have some songs/interludes on my Garageband app on my Iphone. I was planning on using some for my bands album. Now my Iphone won't turn on and I'm being told to restore the phone. Have I lost all my Garageband songs?
Hi NWL1,
Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, the iPhone won't update and is stuck. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.
If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a great day,

IPhone won't turn on after trying to restore to beta version.
I was trying to restore my iPhone to the latest beta version and during the restore, an error occurred and my iPhone won't turn on, and iTunes does not recognize it anymore. Now, when i try to turn it on, the logo appears and then appears the "connect to iTunes" image and IMMEDIATELY the screen turns white and Apple's logo appears again and starts all over again.
If you're a registered developer, you have access to the developers forums. iOS 5 beta can NOT be discussed in the public forums. If you're not a developer, bummer... you shouldn't have installed a stolen beta on your phone, should ya?

IPhone won't turn back on.
My iPhone 4S just randomly switched of on about 80% power and it won't turn back on. I've tried holding down the home and sleep buttons as well, but no luck. I put it into DFU made for recovery, and it did get discovered by iTunes, but the display doesn't turn on still.
It hasn't been damaged externally in anyway either.
Please help.Sounds like a hardware problem. Make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby.
