Please help! My iPhone won't turn on.

I was browsing the internet on my iPhone 4 when suddenly the screen went black. I tried turning my phone on but nothing happened. I tried holding the sleep button and the home button at the same time, but still nothing. The apple symbol does not even appear. I think that the battery life before my phone shut off was around 50%-60%. I called my phone from my landline and it rang a few times before going to voicemail. When my phone is shut off it goes straight to voicemail. Does this mean my phone is still on?

Leave it Connect to the Wall Outlet for an hour or so...
Then try this...
You will Not Lose Any Data...
Turn the Phone Off... ( if it isn’t already )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... (But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...
Turn the Phone On...
If that doesn't Help... Connect to the Computer you Usually Sync with and see if you can get it into Recovery Mode...
Recovery Mode

If still no joy... take it to an Apple Store and get them to have a look at it...
Be sure to make an appointment first.

Help please respond my iphone won't turn on

It's been charging all night last night and all day this morning and you know when it is in the process of turning on and the apple comes up, well every single time after the apple comes up it doesn't turn on normal, the apple just disappears and the entire screen goes black with just a loading circle in the center and it has been doing this for over 12 hours. I've tried to reboot it by holding down the circle button and the top button together and it turns of completely that way and then I turn it back on but it still goes to that black screen with the loading circle. Long story short, my phone won't turn on. Please respond if you know a way to fix this.

Here are steps to get DFU Mode: Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer. (some turn off iPhone here, I do not) Hold both home and power buttons for exactly 10 seconds, release power button, keep holding home button until iPhone recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode. Usually takes 10-20 seconds of holding the home button. If the iPhone screen is black (blank) the iPhone is in DFU Mode.

*** PLEASE HELP *** My IPHONE won't sync with Itunes *** PLEASE HELP ***

My husband & I both have Iphones & we went to sync & his goes fine, but everytime I plug mine in, the rainbow beachball comes up & just turns & turns & won't go away, and never connects to itunes & when I unplug my phone it goes away... We have 2 separate accounts setup to do our syncing...

And one more thing... Is there any other way for me to save my contacts & calender??
If I have to restore, how do I do that??
Please help me.... Thank you!!

You are a LIFESAVER!!!!! It worked & my phone is syncing.... No one at the "apple" help desk has been able to help me all week. THANK YOU so much...
Can the phone not handle that many podcasts at once? I have a 16GB phone...

Please Help! MBP Won't Turn On... T_T

So, my beloved MBP (2.4Ghz Core 2 Duo) finally bit the dust after years of service. Today, after work, when I press the power button, the sleep light turns on and I hear the faint sound of hard disk activation for a second. The screen stays black and there is never a startup chime. I've changed the RAM and hooked it up to an external monitor, but the monitor gets no signal and the MBP still does not turn on (same symptoms). After I leave it like this for 30+ minutes, nothing changes, but the laptop does get warm.
So, is the motherboard dead? Please help!!!

Although the lack of a startup chime bodes of other things, it may well be worth taking in the computer with this Apple article in hand:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2377
Your MBP has the nVidea 8600M GT chipset that is the subject of the Apple Repair Extension Program (REP) that the article details. Apple Stores and AASPs have a test gadget that will determine if the nVidea chipset has failed. If it has, the repair is free to you for a period of four years from date of purchase whether you have AppleCare or not. The repair consists of installing a new logic board.
As you are in NYC, there should be an Apple Store nearby.
If they determine the chipset has not failed, then you have the option of asking for a "Depot Repair." This is a flat fee service that pretty much fixes anything they find wrong as long as the case does not show evidence of damage. The fee is around US$300--much cheaper than a new computer. I do not know if the replaced DVD drive will negate your qualification for this service.
One late-breaking thought: if you use headphones, can you here the startup chimes?

Please help motherboard(s) won't turn on

After this story: https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=161402.0
I know it was an asus, shame on me. I returned the Asus, and the pins were bent I believe in transport so no warranty and bought a new MSI Z77A-G45 motherboard. Assembled the system again. Still no luck
Action for 200ms en then dead again.. I was fearing for the pins on the motherboard, I thought maybe I'm an idiot and Im doing something wrong with connection the cpu. But the pins are not bent so that's not it. I removed everything just a bare board. Plug in the power supply and nothing. Same problem.
I don't believe all these boards are DOA. The changes of that are so minor. All I could think of next is the PSU. I connected the PSU to an older system boots just fine. Also just tried another PSU on this new motherboard.. same problem tries to go on but fails imminently.
I googled and saw that like I thought a motherboard without a cpu should atleast go on, and maybe beep that the cpu is missing. But it should turn on. In my case it doesn't.
Also when I plug the extra 4 pin next to the 24 pin connector on the motherboard it won't go on at all. Nothing nada, remove the 4 pin and it will try for a split second and die. (like stated above)
I'm totally lost in this and I humbly like to ask some advice. I know in my last topic I've been a bit harsh and msi bashing.
Btw, the supplier tested the first MSI board and found it dead as well. So somehow I dont think these problems are connected to the first MSI board.
THANKS for your time/input!

With all due respect, have you read through the manual that came with your motherboard?
If it wasn't included with your motherboard it can be downloaded here:
http://www.msi.com/service/download/manual-18064.html
Refer to page 25 in regards to Jpwr1 & Jpwr2
Re-install the mobo into your case after counting the stand offs and comparing them to the holes in the mobo after refering to page 24 of the manual.
Install 2 sticks of ram for dual channel operations as seen on page 26 of the manual.
Install your cpu and hook up BOTH jpwr1 & jpwr2 make sure you hook all 24 pins ups
Then hook up the case connectors (page 35-40)
Try to start it at this point/ w/o the discrete vga and let us know what happens. At worst with a bad cpu, it will spin up for a moment and enter a boot loop.
Ofcourse this isn't my setup as I started. I had it all wired up and connected. Inclusing memory, vga, ssd etc. But it wouldn't start, and from that point you start removing part after part to get to the point where it will start. In this case it won't.

Hello there, BundyA.
Error 3 is usually associated to security software settings. The following Knowledge Base article provides some great information and links for troubleshooting the issue:
Resolve specific iTunes update and restore errors
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
This section should prove useful:
Configure your security software
Check your security software and settings, which can block ports and prevent connection to Apple servers during update and restore.
Common errors: 2, 4, 6, 9, 1000, 1611, 9006, 9807, 9844. Sometimes as a result of this issue, a device might stop responding during the restore process.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.

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!

My iphone won't turn off. What can I do?

Do a reset, hold down the home and power button for a couple seconds until you see the apple logo.

Create a new AppleID on a different iOS device or on a computer. You will
then be able to use that newly created AppleID on your iPhone.

These are user-to-user forums, you are not talking to Apple here. You can contact iTunes support via this page and ask them why the message is appearing : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then probably Purchases, Billing & Redemption

Reset your phone:
Press the sleep/wake button & home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release.
