Start 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

    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.

  • 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:

    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.

  • 32DT2U1 will not turn on after reset.

     My TV all of a sudden will not turn on. I have done the reset and it did not help. I am wondering if maybe it needs a Firmware update and can that be done with the TV off? As stated in the subject line, the model No. is 32DT2U1. Thanks

    Unfortunately, I don't think that's possible. I'd recommend calling customer support.

  • 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 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:

  • HT201210 Tried updating to ios6, "couldnt be updated, unkown error (6)... now phone must be restored in order to connect to iTunes... now Phone will NOT turn on. ? ..... Is it REQUIRED to "restore" to factory setting?

    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.

  • My iPhone 4s is stuck on a black screen that shows a USB cable connecting to iTunes. The phone will not turn on and the iTunes logo as I described only shows up when I plug the phone into the charger or my computer. I have tried the reset in restore mode

    My iPhone 4s is stuck on a black screen that shows a USB cable connecting to iTunes. The phone will not turn on and the iTunes logo as I described only shows up when I plug the phone into the charger or my computer. I have tried the reset in restore mode as well as the DFU? mode and it still will not work. I have the latest version of iTunes on my Mac. My error code was 2002. I also tried it on my laptop (windows 8.1) and none of the above worked. My error code on my laptop was 02. The phone is through Verizon and it has absolutely no damage. It was working fine up until this and I have been trying to fix it for 2 days. Please help! I am unsure of what version the phone was currently running on before this because I have another iphone that's my primary phone and have not used this one in about a month. I do not believe it was updated to IOS 7.

    Your iPhone is in recoverty mode at the moment so to possibly get it back up and running you would need to do a restore as you have been trying. Follow the steps in the article below for the specific error messages you have been receiving. If after following all steps the issue remains book an appointment at a local Apple Retail Store to have the iPhone evaluated.

  • HT4061 My phone will not turn on. I did a hard reset but all that my screen will show is a picture indicating I should connect the power cord to iTunes (iTunes icon).I don't know my serial # and I do not have acces to my laptop

    My phone will not turn on. I did a hard reset but all that my screen will show is a picture indicating I should connect the power cord to iTunes (power cord symbol with an arrow iTunes icon).I don't know my serial # and I do not have acces to my laptop.

    The serial number has nothing to do with this.
    YOur phone is in recovery mode.
    You will need access to a computer with itunes on it to restore your phone.

  • Cisco 7941G phones will not boot up after factory reset.

    Cisco 7941G phones will not boot up after factory reset.
    The following happens.
    1. Speaker light lit (Green)
    2. Phone displays a firmware upgrade page (see attachment) for a few minutes. (Doesn't seems to be upgrading, but it "saids" upgrading)
    3. Saw Cisco logo with a Java Powered page.
    4. The whole thing loops again and again...
    I think the reason why the phone isn't booting up is because the phone needs to know where to find the configuration/firmware files from a tftp server. I do have a TFTP server, but normally I need to go in settings to change the alternative tftp server, but the thing is that now I can't even press the settings button...
    Please help.

    How many phones were reset and upgrading at one time? What is the setting of the TFTP Maximum Serving Count (Advanced TFTP Service Parm) on each of the TFTP servers?
    Sounds like too many devices trying to use TFTP at once.

    My phone will not turn on, therefore I have received a replacement phone but am wanting to reset my old device. It is not locating it because it says it is offline however I cannot turn it on at all. Can I start with my new device and not reset the old? Any help would be greatly appreciated. It's been a week without a phone

    That does happen.  It depends on how hard the server is being hit, as well as the connection speed of your system.  If you are on a windows system, you will want to disable any antivirus or firewall software during the download.
