Phone starts booting then aborts

I have just updated my iPhone OS to 3.0 release, after having been using the dev beta. I now find my phone start booting (shows the Apple logo) and then after a few seconds aborts and turns off. I have tried connecting it to the computer, to the wall adaptor, leaving it for a while, but nothing seems to make a difference.
Any idea on what I should be trying to do?

Looks like I should have searched before posting. Looks like there is recovery mode:

    Hi
    My Powerbook was the same. Only fix is to reinstall OSX from the install CD but be sure not to pick the Format and install clean. Once you boot with the install CD pick the preserve user data and settings.
    On My machine the reinstall looked perfect. My network, email, files and all the programmes were all there. Most apps worked fine but Adobe CS2, Virtual PC and NetBarrier all needed reinastallation as they reported a few files or registration was missing. I went for the 10.4.3 upgrade again and it worked fine.
    Good luck

  • IMac starts boot then cuts off

    My iMac was working fine.  I got a message that the memory was almost full then it just cut off.  Now when I try to turn it on, it goes to the white screen, The booting bar comes up, but as it starts to boot, everything just cuts off.

    You may have totally filled your internal HD adn need to move libraries such as you iTunes, iPhoto or iMovie libraries to an external HD. Please attempt to boot into Safe Mode by holding down the Shift key when you hear the startup tone until a progress bar appears. If you can do that then move those libraries to an external HD and then attempt to restart.

  • Start booting then reboot

    Hi
    i've just installed WinXp + update
    other software are installed (office, nero, steam, sandra, ....)
    when i start the PC, winxp is booting, and when loading logo & blue bar, winxp reboots and start correctly.
    why ?
    Thanks

    mm! very simple just try to press f8 and go to safe mode or last good config   if your pc boots it could be a driver problem, so remove it
    if not try to test you bios config reset to bios normal defaults and then test your ram pci cards so on.

  • When I turn on my iPhone 4S the apple logo pops up for a split second then the screen goes black but the phone itselfs boots up just fine???

    I tried replacing the screen with no luck. The same thing happened with the new screen. I replaced the backlight coil and the backlight ic and still have the issue. I don't know what else could be the problem. If the battery is completely dead and I plug it in the "charging battery" symbol shows just fine during the entire time it is charging, but as soon as it starts to boot up the apple logo shows for a split second then the screen goes black. The rest of the phone still boots up just fine. I can use SIRI, press the lock button like I'm about to use my phone and slide my thumb across where the "slide to unlock" would normally be and it will make the unlock noise just no picture display. I am pretty tech savvy when it comes to repairs and all of the connections look fine, replaced backlight coil and ic, replaced LCD/digitizer, tried a restore, tried a DFU restore, multiple hard resets, but I am at a loss as to where to go from here. I had dropped the phone and put a minor crack in the screen but the phone worked just fine for a couple months after before this started to happen. The phone is still under apple warranty but apple won't cover it because Apple is stating that it is "caused by the crack in the screen." But being a repair technician I know that is not the case... Good one apple. So I took it upon myself to try to determine the REAL problem. Anyone with a little more knowledge have any ideas? Any suggestions are appreciated!!

    Yes, I understand that. But The screen issue is not a result of user damage. The phone was not dropped when the screen got cracked. My daughter was standing in a chair at the table and dropped one of her toys onto the bottom of the phone and cracked it right by the home button. (Nowhere near the LCD/digitizer flex cables, connections, or logic board components) then a few months later my phone had died, I plugged it in, it showed it was charging, then Apple logo disappeared and screen didn't work. AFTER contacting Apple about the issue and them telling me that it "is a result of the very minimal crack to the sheet of glass that has no relation to the LCD or Digitizer and that the warranty does not cover it I had taken it upon myself to change the LCD/digitizer to no avail, as well as backlight ic and backlight coil to no avail. But how do I go about letting Apple know that it is in fact NOT due to the cracked screen nor is it due to the flex cable connections? I can't. So the lady that works the call center phones  trying to "convince" me that she knows what she is talking about and "convince" me that it is from the cracked screen I have to take her word because I can't show Apple that its not because of that without paying them $199 to fix the screen in which case they will just send me a new phone rather than fix the faulty hardware under warranty.

  • My Macbook Pro will not boot up. I can hear the sound that it has started and then goes into an infinite loop.

    What model MBP and which version of OS X? Sounds as if the hard drive may have failed. If you have an installation disc, try booting with it. If your machine came with Lion or Mountain Lion, try booting to the Recovery partition - Command and R keys held down while booting.

  • HT201210 My iPhone became wet at the beach.  I put it in rice for 4 days.  When I connect to itunes, it says the phone must be restored.  It starts and then gives either the error 2001, or 2006.  What exactly does this mean, and is it worth getting repair

    Water damage isn't covered by warranty, but you could always purchase a refurbished device from Apple. 

  • I started Boot Camp on a MAC mini but then  had a power failure after 30 secs :( Now when I start Boot Camp the option to install Windows 7 is gone.  In it's place is Remove Windows 7.  It seems to hang at Partitioning disk  Can I recover?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    That's because the Boot Camp volume was created, but your Mac hasn't been set up to start automatically from the Windows disc. Insert the Windows DVD and press C key while your Mac is starting to start Windows installation.
    If you want to make sure that everything is correct, open Boot Camp Assistant and choose the option to remove Windows 7. Then, open that application again, select the option to install Windows 7 and you will be able to install Windows as usual

    My phone started vibrating mutiple times last night and the screen went black, and then it stopped and now I dont have a clue what to do.  How should I fix this problem because I cant turn it back on? I have only had my phone for 2 months.

    I also live an hr away from the Apple store, so its not the best thing to go there just to ask a question and find out what to do
