My Curve won't turn on and no sign of flashing red light

Hi!
I m all new to this blackberry forum thing....anyway i have a blackberry curve and all of a sudden yesterday it just stopped working. when i looked at the phone the screen was all white so i took out the battery and put it back on thinking that it will come back up but it didnt. Then i took the battery out again and plugged it to the USB(without the battery) because ususally it comes back up, but it still didnt. i put the battery again and plugged it to the USB thinking that it needs to charge but still no since of that flashing red light. I took the battery out and put my friends battery (cos he has a curve too) but still it didnt work. I did try holding down the power (red)button still not back on.
I just dont understand whats wrong with it, its not like i dropped it in the water or dropped it on the floor. I didnt do anything to it. It just stopped working.
Im really frustrated right now...I just dont know what to do..i hope someone can help me
THanks!

I finally got my curve to work. I just left it on the charger for a while and then it powered up. It seems if its a little low on power and I don't charge it relatively soon it shuts down and won't power up for awhile. I've also updated the software and cleaned out the junk files. It seems to be working fine now, go figure.

Most likely.
You can try to boot from the Install DVD for your Mac and run AHT from there if it boots.
If not it sounds like it is time to take it to Apple for repair.

A four year battery could be dead. I'd contact an Apple Service Center.

My ipad identifies my charging cable as not recognized, although it was bought at the same store, at the same time as the ipad. It charged for awhile, but now won't turn on or even charge. Any ideas?

I still have all the packaging and receipt as proof. Any ideas why? Purchase was over a year ago, so I can't get Apple help on the phone.

Try moving and wiggle the devise if that works the port or the tip of the charger is Brocken if the wire is an apple chatter made by Apple it should not I give your problems I've it in a forren ore different manufacturer that could be the problem apple suggest all apples devises should all ways charges and sync with an apple manufactured charger for the best proformance don't try other doggy chargers made from other manufactures.
Hope this works

My z10 led flashing red when charging and even at battery full it blinks red. no green at any note..

My z10 led flashing red when charging and even at battery full it blinks red. no green at any notification. But at below 10% charging level it blinks with a combination of red and green. Please send me any settings to be changed if.. at full charged no green light is blinking.. how many colours does z10 led have..and when it works and how to make those settings..or was my led not working fine? I am worried so much..plz help me

Your LED is fine, on the Z10 there is not "network signal available" green LED, as you're accustomed to from the legacy devices. At reaching 10%, the LED will blink orange.
Red for message or applicaiton notifications.
if you want to edit and create specific LED color combination, see the third party apps such as BeBuzz or Hub++

Playbook won't turn on anymore unless plugged in

I've had my playbook for about 2 weeks and up until yesterday morning it was working perfectly. Now it won't turn on. When I plug it into the mains using the provided charger the red light lights up for about 10 seconds then goes off for about 5 and just keeps repeating.
I plugged it into my pc to try and run the device manager but the light does the same thing and I cannot turn it on. When it's plugged into the PC it sounds as though it's connected then when the light goes off it sounds as though the device has been disconnected
I left it over night to charge and this morning the red light was green, as though it was fully charged, I pressed the power button and the playbook came to life but the battery said it only had half charged. As soon as I take out the charger, the playbook turns off again and cannot be switched back on. It's incredibly frustrating.
I've also tried the three button re-boot and nothing works.
I'm taking it back to the store I bought it from to try and get a replacement (I'm still within the 3 weeks warranty with the store) but I wanted to know if this was a common problem that can be solved without taking it back?

No, not common.

My iPod Nano 5th G. Won't turn on off the charger!?

I recently just found my iPod since it's been lost, I can't understand why it won't turn on when it's not on the charger? It comes on when I put the charger in, thats fine, an I can listen to music and all, it even shows the bolt on the battery and that it's charging, also shows fine on my computer, it connects an I can sync music but I just don't get why when I take it out the charger it goes off and won't turn back on! I tried looking online on how to reset which I did but no luck not even when when I tried resetting it while charging t still won't come on without the charger connected to it. Unless I'm doing it wrong, I don't get it. It never had that problem, although it's been dead for a really long time but does it make a difference? And the battery doesn't show full, it still shows it charging you know when it moving ? And I can't even tell if the battery has gotten at least half way charged cause it goes right off when I take the charger out. Its been about 7-8 hours that I had it on and off the charger . Can you help me? Does the battery have be completely full to where it's still and green ? Not moving back and forth meaning it's not charged at all? Some gadgets don't show the battery is at least half way. On the computer on iTunes, it says it's up to date

Hello undertow5613,
I would be concerned as well if my iPod nano was not powering on. I found a resource that I think would help in a situation like this.
I recommend following the steps in this troubleshooting assistant:

Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.

My MBP won't turn on. The charger light goes green but then dims out before it goes out again

My MBP suddenly stopped working when I came back to it. I tried charging it with a couple of different chargers and different sockets. The charger light turns green but then slowly dims down before it turns off.
I tried all key combinations for starting up - holding the power key for long, Cmd+Opt+P+R with power button, Cmd+R with power button, but none of them work. The laptop won't turn on.
What could be wrong?

If you are still under warranty call Apple Care. Make sure you get a case number as all repairs have an additional 90 days of warranty.

My ipod nano (square - 4GB) won't turn on even when charging, how can i get it to turn on?, my ipod nano (square - 4GB) won't turn on even when charging, how can i get it to turn on?

my ipod nano (4GB, 3rd generation) won't turn on or charge after running out of battery? How can I get it to turn on?

How long have you left it to charge? At least half an hour or more? Did you try a hard reset after leaving it to start for a few hours? To reset the device, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

IPhone won't turn on and a blue LED light before

When I picked up my iPhone to use it this strange LED light came on whenever you have flashlight on or camera flash on. All of a sudden it turned off and then I plugged it in and it acted like it needed to be charged and then it turned on. While the LED light is still on. I closed out flashlight and went to the camera app. When I opened up the camera app even though the flash was set to off the LED light went off. Then it showed the warning sign that my iPhone was overheating. It later shut off and my dad told me to hold the power button down for 10 seconds and then something was suppose to pop up I guess? I don't exactly remember what he said. But now the apple screen shows up for a few seconds and then it shuts down for another few seconds. I don't know what to do because it won't even turn on so I can restore it. HELP!!!

Have you tried to charge the phone? Plug it into a charger and leave it there for 30 minutes.
Then try to turn it on again and see if that works.
If the light was left on too long I "guess" it could cause the phone to get hot but probably more for a rapid discharge of the battery.
Let me know how you make out.

MBP won't turn on (sleep indicator light is flashing)

I just bought a new MBP. I was downloading from my USB stick when the laptop suddenly died. It won't turn on now. When I press the power button, the sleep indicator starts flashing incessantly.
I tried the stand technique of taking out the battery, removing the AC plug, and holding down the power button for 5 seconds. Nothing.
Any ideas?

I'm having this same problem. I'm an alaskan, so my view of heat may be skewed, but my laptop was sitting in the car for about 30 minutes here in montana - I really hope the heat didn't damage my brand-spanking new MBP )-:
I have a built-to-order MBP with 2GBs RAM, boring old high-quality apple standard RAM, so I don't think that's the problem ^^/

IPhone 4 won't turn on or even charge!

My iPhone 4 running iOS 6 was not displaying it's charge correctly. I tried to sort it out like I normally would by charging the battery all the way up and then drain it and charge it up again. I tried to do this because, like it says above, it won't switch on. To boot it I tried to hold the power button down then plug it into charge through USB and the low battery symbol was displayed. Then however the iPhone booted up and showed 65% battery. Because it did not actually have enough charge it shut down straight away again. So now I cannot do anything with it. Before you post anything like putting it into DFU mode and restoring it I am not restoring it because I have no backup of the data that is on it. I have also tried holding down the sleep and home button for up to a minute but still no results. Please help!

Same here. Connect to iTune and tried restoring (iOS 7.1.2) four times but phone continue to switch on and off (thus appearing in and out of iTune) and shows 3% charged all the time. Please help too!

HT1430 iPhone randomly shut off, won't turn on even when charged?

So my phone was about 30% and it died when I was using it. My iPhone has a stuck sleep/wake button, so I can't reset it normally. I've had it plugged in overnight with my charger (which DOES work), but the screen is still black. Is there any way to fix this? :/ I currently have it plugged into my Macbook, but iTunes won't recognize the phone.

ONly way is to do a reset. hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
You'l just to have to keep trying until it works.
