TS1702 i was watching a tv series on my Ipad thru VIKI when it suddenly froze and I could not turn it off even if i pressed the sleep/wake and home button
hi i was watching a tv series on my iPad3 thru the app VIKI when it suddenly froze. I tried to turn it off by pressing the sleep/awake and the home button but it would not go.
Try reset a few more times.
Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 second until you see the Apple logo.

Hello all,
I have a 14.88G iPod Nano that I currently use as my primary watch. A week or so ago I started to experience a blank white screen when I press the "sleep/wake" button instead of the watch face (I have it set to wake from sleep to display the clock). When I hard reset it, it will come back fine and the screen will respond and work as normal, as soon as I manually put it to sleep by pressing the "sleep/wake" button and then try to wake it the same thing happens and I have a blank white screen that doesn't respond to touch gestures or anything.
What I have tried so far to no avail:
Numerous hard restarts (holding the "sleep/wake" button with the volume - button).
Tried this: iPod nano (6th generation): Hardware troubleshooting
Changed the watch face to display.
Recharged the device overnight (without full discharge).
Since none of this works I'm out of ideas. Eventhough I have a 6G Nano it should no longer be under warranty since I was sent it as a replacement for a different (older) product.
Any ideas? Is this a known problem? Thanks in advance for any insight any of you could provide. Also, what time is it??
Regards,Hey,
I have the exact same problem as you have described. I also used my ipod as a watch but starting from today, whenever I unlock it the screen turns white until a reset is done. Even a factory reset through itunes didn't fix it.
Have you found any solution?
Bah, this is annoying.

my ipad with retina eye updated to IOs 7 not able to boot ....the normal way of pressing the sleep/wake button and the home button does'nt work....any ideas i think that IOs 7 is a crap cos form the time i loaded it it was shaky...now my ipad is dead
If it is one year old minus one day it is still under warranty. If it is more than a year since you purchased it then yes, the warranty has expired.
Millions of iPads have been sold. Most continue to function long after their warranty has expired. Check the many requests about updating the iOS on the original iPad on these forums and you'll see that there are many iPads still working after three years. My iPad 2, which I had for over two years is still working well for my son in law who took it over from me when I bought a new one.
Given that there will always be a few iPads that fail early. Most of those will be covered under warranty. But some will fail after the warranty has expired and before the owner expected it to. I'm sorry to hear that you are in this category. Take your iPad to an Apple store and have it looked at. They will provide you with alternatives, one of which is to purchase a like model to the one that failed at a discount. You can then know your options and make the best choice for you. -
I have a iphone3GS. It could not be boot up. When i press the sleep/wake button, the apple logo appear and then disappear. The password login screen didnt' come on. When i tried to connect my phone to the itune on my laptop, there isnt this button that i can sync my phone with the laptop.
Sounds like your iPhones software may be corrupt. Try placing the iPhone into recovery mode. To do this, follow the steps in this article:

My iphone 4 will not switch on and i have Press the sleep/wake button
My iphone 4 will not switch on and i have Press the sleep/wake button for more than 20secs. i have also connected the iphone to Itunes but the computer or itunes doesnt recongise the phone is connected. HELP
If it isn't responding to any of those steps it might prove difficult to extract data from the phone.
So again your best bet may be the Apple Store, they would be able to help retrieve it I expect. -
Right now, I'm stuck in the settings, when I press the sleep/wake button or the home button it doesnt let me. But is not frozen or any thing just the buttons. help me please!!!!!
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 and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My Ipod touch is acting very annoying. When i press the sleep/wake button to turn it on it just turns on with the apple logo and stays there. The screen will then blink white occasionally and the process will start again. Once when it turned white. i pressed the power and home buttons at the same time and then the above process continued.

The Sleep/Wake buttin in the button on the upper right top of the iPod. -
As above!
It's no possible to turn it off without the sleep/wake button. You can use the mute switch while at work and at night.

HT1430 Where are the sleep/wake and home buttons found on an iPad?

Ipad2 won't shut down even when i press the sleep/wake button and the home button at the same time.
I can't shut down my ipad2 even when i press and hold the sleep/wake button and the home button at the same time.
If the screen appears to be zoomed in, then does tapping the screen with three fingers zoom you back out ? When zoom is on you should also be able to scroll around the screen using three fingers on the screen.
If you are seeing the keypad then that should be for the iPad's passcode, I assume that you have one set ? If the iPad is disabled then I wouldn't expect the keypad to show. -
My ipad does not turn off...i tried pressing the slep/wake button and home button for more than 10 secs but nothing hapened. Also, the screen is not rotating on portrait and landscape views...
While this could potentially be a hardwar issue:
Try a rest: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the iPad shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the iPad back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.
If the reset doesn't work, you may need to consider restoring the iPad to factory settings -
Does anyone know what would cause me to start hearing a talk program of some type after hitting the play button after it had been on pause. Hitting the pause button shuts off the talking, but hitting the play button starts it up again. The strange thing is that the talking continues even after I turn off my iPad. The talk program was about silly or trendy news items, not regular news. It sounds like it could be a talk-radio program, but there were no call letters or information on where it was coming from or who was talking. The person doing all the talking is a male and sounds like he could be in his 20's. The only way I could turn it off was to hit the pause button and then turn off my iPad. I just got my iPad last week and had not had any problems with it until this happened. At the time this happened I was playing a version of Angry Birds that kept being interrupted by t-mobile commercials from time to time, which I had never experienced before. either.
Well, shut my mouth! There was a similar question over to the right about a 6th generation nano repeating over and over again -- I read the answer to that one, followed the instructions, and holy crap, it's back to normal.
Is there a name for this when you end up replying to your own aggravating question? That's what I did. Now I can go out and listen. It's only 91 degrees. Heaven. Thanks, Apple. -
Thanks, that got rid of the error message, but my wifi is still off and the button is "grayed out" won't let me turn it on. The message says "location accuracy is improved when Wi-Fi is turned on". Can anyone tell me how turn it back on?
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Solved!
Go to Solution.There are many reasons this problem can happen:
Make sure the battery is charging.
If you press the ON/OFF(Power)button too quickly, the camera may not be turned on.
If it is still not turning on or off, press and hold the ON/OFF(Power) button for at least 7 seconds.
