iOS: Unable to update or restore

I was in the middle of updating to 7.0.3 and Itunes stopped working. Now my phone is stuck in limbo (apple logo with status bar under) My power button doesnt work (of course) How do I get it back to normal?

I have same issue. I click on the home button and Wake/sleep at the same time for 30 seconds or more and then the phone entered in Recovery mode. It is erasing my content now and installing the update. Let´s see how this ends. I have iCloud, iTunes match, and backups from previos versions, hope I can restore all my content.
Otherwise I´ll go to the Genius Bar to do a checkup.
Good luck!
It did not work the first time... The iPhone4 kept in limbo. Then I did disconnect as suggested above and tried again to enter in Recovery mode. This second time it works. And after restoring the iPhone4 with 7.0.3, it asked me if I want to recover from backup. I did recover from my latest back up and now it is syncing the content.

Hi i have a apple ipod touch 3G the power button doesnt work so i cant ever turn it off but i got home and my screen is just plain white how do i fix this thnx

i need some help i have a 3G ipod touch the power button doesnt work at all but i got home and my screen is just plain white how do i fix this

Let the battery fully drain. After charging for an hour try a reset (may not work).
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Then connect to your comnputer and try to restore.
- If the screen is still white then it appears yu have a hardware problem and appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My ipod is disabled and my power button doesnt work. how can i restore it?

i forgot my password and i researched how to fix it and they all say that you hold the power and home button. however, my power button at the top doesnt work. Is there anyway to fix it?

Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
Note: If you see the screen pictured below, let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then start with step 2 again.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Additional Information
Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

Iphone 4 makes calls but screen is black and the power button doesnt work. never synced to computer or photo stream. I dont want to lose my photos

So, my Iphone 4 now has a black screen. Before it did this I unlocked the screen (which has a passcode) try to open instagram and the screen flashed and went black. I can make calls and it seems to send messages but I dont know for sure because the screen is black. The power button (sleep) does not work and when I try to reset the phone it makes a call. I never synced it to a computer or Itunes and I didnt start photo stream. I want to preserve the pictures because it has photos of family members that have passed. Is there a way to get the photos?? Help please!

If you have attempted the reset, which is holding the home button and sleep/wake button, was it still connected to the computer? Have you tried to do that when not connected. You stated it never came on, how long did you hold the buttons together? If you cannot get it to connect to iTunes then you would not be able to restore the device. You can see if you can put the device into Recovery Mode by following the instructions in this support document. If that does not work, then you are correct, make an appointment at the Apple Store. If you can't update or restore your iOS device

My power button doesnt work. Ive seen someone who has reconfigured their buttons, so that if they press both volume keys phone turns off. Ive looked into this, and it seems to use a jailbroken app. Can I do this with a non jailbroken phone?

This person was able to choose which action, (shaking the phone, pressing both volume keys) turned the phone off/sent it to sleep instead. I have a 3gs.

Sounds like a very uncomfotable situation. This is, however, user-to-user technical support forum. Your post is really outside of what's appropriate here. For an issue with the store, I would take it up with the manager directly or, if you don't get a hearing, ask for the name of the district manager. For Apple Care, you would also need to request to speak to a supervisor.
If all else fails, write a letter to corporate headquarters. See the Contact Us link at the lower right.
Best of luck.

My ipod wont power on. and holding the home and power buttons doesnt work. and it isnt recognized by itunes. what do i do? i just got the screen replaced.

Idk what to write here

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem or a botched repair job. Take it back to where you got it fixed.

Power Button not working on my Zen Mi

Hi, recently bought a Zen Micro 6GB off Ebay, was brand new, not second hand, unit was fine for month or two until now, the power button isnt working at all. So the only way i can turn the unit on is to plug it into my USB port or to use my charger.
Any ideas why it might not be working?
Ive reloaded the latest firmware/bought a new battery/formatted the player (firmware upgrade wiped player) but nothing seems to fix it. Ive not dropped it at all, the problem occured when the player had just been left on a table, no-one had touched it for a day or two and it just decided it didnt wanna work anymore.
I can still use the player but i have to constantly leave it on incase im somewhere without access to a USB port or charger.
Oh yeah and because the power button doesnt work i cant get into the recovery mode (as u know you have to hold the power button on)
So....any ideas whats wrong?
And will i be able to get a replacement from creative...although i bought it off ebay? I know i wont be able to get a refund or anythin off the ebayer coz its not really their problem.
