Phone will not turn on after IOS 4.0 update
So I updated to IOS 4.0 this afternoon. However during the process of copying all of my songs, vdeos etc back onto the phone it was interrupted and the phone reset itself.
Since then I have not been able to turn my phone on. All I get is the apple logo, then the screen flashes white and the phone tries to boot up again.
I cannot even get the phone into DFU mode to restore from my backup.
Does anyone have any siggestions as to where I can go from here?
I'm in the same position except the upgrade and sync went fine. It all seemed to have upgraded fine, even put my apps in folders.
About an hour later noticed it would not switch on. I forced quit and it turned on. Now it will only come out of sleep if it plugged in to itunes or if I force quit.
I have done a full reset which again went fine, restored from back up fine. Still will not come out of sleep without me holding down the power and home button for a few seconds. How can i put it back to the happy world that i was in before I upgraded.
I have seen a couple of suggestions but all seem to be if you are using a MAC, i'm on a PC.

My phone will not turn on after downloading ios 8
I updated to the IOS 8 this morning and now my phone will not turn on, it just keeps directing me to itunes and every time I try there is some kind of error, what do I need to do?
If the screen is showing you the USB wire pointing to iTunes it is telling you it has entered the recovery mode, and you have to use the instructions in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 to connect to iTunes. In summary:

My phone will not turn on after downloading software
I just downloaded ios5.1 to my iphone 4 and restored my previous information and now my phone will not turn on.
You don't download IOS onto your iPhone.
Use computer iTunes with your iPhone connected and selected.
Select Summary tab in iTunes and click the Check for Update button. -
my phone wil not turn on after trying to update now all it de si tell me to plug into itunes which i have ready done and still nothing happens can you help
Try DFU Mode Restore. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB cable. Hold both Home and Power button, after exactly 10 seconds release the Power Button, keep holding the Home button until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, usually about 20 seconds time.

Phone will not turn on after resetting
my phone was acting up, not responsive. i reset by holding down sleep and home button together until apple symbol appears. after letting go and apple symbol is up for a few seconds, it goes back to black screen and will not turn back on. help!!!
Message was edited by: RicahStart with your computer open to iTunes and the USB cable plugged into the computer but not to the iPhone. Hold down the Home button on the iPhone as you connect the USB cable to the iPhone. Continue holding down the Home button until both screens acknowledge the connection, then release.
This will allow you to restore the iPhone, which is unfortunately likely needed.
The process may take 30 minutes, so have time.
Good luck -
My phone will not turn on after upgrade
I did not complete the OS7 upgrade this weekend and my phone battey died last night after it died the phone goes to screen asking to plugin into Itunes which I do and nothing happens. I went to Verizon and they could not restart it either and it is out of warranty It is iphone 4. Any suggestions please
You need the latest version of iTunes on your computer to connect iOS 7 to it.
Here's some advice that may help:
you'll need to put the device into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:

If that still doesn't work, as a last resort try DFU mode:

My iphone 5 will not turn on after iOS 7.1.1 update last night
I have tried to push and hold top button & home button at the same time. The phone just seems dead. It was charging all night and shouldn't be a battery problem.
I first tried to update last night when I got home from work. It told me it couldn't update unless I had 50% or more battery life or be pluged in. So I waited until I went to bed and pluged it in to charge overnight (like I always do) and set it to update, figuring by the morning it would be finished. When I woke up this morning it was dead. I've tried plugging it into different chargers (car, work, home) but I get nothing.
I've tried searching the internet for other sites for help, but I haven't come up with anything useful. I was hoping I could get some help here before I went to the Apple store after work. -
my iphone asked if i wanted to update it. i selected yes.. then about 10 mins later it shut off. thats been 3 hours ago and now it wont turn on. ive only had it for a week. what do i do??
ive tried charging it and i pluged it in to my computer.. i help down the power button. nothing seems to work.1. Charge with the AC adapotor for at least 30 minutes.
2. Reset the phone: press both the home and power buttons for up t0 1 minutes, releasing when the Apple logo appears -

Phone will NOT turn on after synching & updating (or trying) to ios 6. ? ..... Is it REQUIRED to "restore" to factory setting? When researching, I read that you will get an option to restore from back up. I am not receiving any options on iTunes.... restore only & basically it is telling me I will lose everything.
I am reading on this site about the error I am getting and it wants me to change some files that I am not comfortable messing with. Mainly because it is like a foreign language. Will the store do this for me or tell me if it is neccessary?

My iPhone will not turn on after a yet another blue screen of death. Please help!
As mentioned above, my phone will not turn on after a yet another blue screen of death. All of a sudden it turned off, and it wouldn't turn on for quite some time, even after I plugged it in the charger. It wasn't long after the screen turned on, but it only displayed a bright black. I decided to turn it on and off a few times. Nothing worked.
I have also tried to call the phone from another one. It was as if the phone was simply off.Hello ZarinaUrum,
The article linked below details a number of troubleshooting steps that can help restore functionality to your iPhone.

I was trying to update my phone to ios 7. There was an error and it stopped. Now my phone will not turn on.
Try recovery mode as described here. You may have to try to enter recovery mode more than once to succeed.

I have a n IPhone 4S. I upgraded to IOS7 and then tried tp go back to my prevous IOS and now my phone will not turn on at all.
I tried to do the same, but couldn't find ios 6. I even tried the APPstore, to download the last IOS6 version.
The most problem is the running out of the battery.
I've checked each app who is "eating" the most power.
The battery stoped runaway, when I closed the weather service....
So for now, I will use regular internet service, and probbaly will do to more app.
Until, finaly, I will find my self with all the applications closed....:-)
That will be the sign, to replace my phone to anderoid....:-)
Till now, there is no any sign from Apple to have a glance to our complanes.
