Hello Elliiee,
The steps detailed below can help stabilize your iPhone.
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
Contact Apple Support.

My iPhone has been "frozen" for two hours now on the Apple logo, after me seeing a notification pop up and tell me I have to restore my device. And my device has been stuck since I started and does not seem to be making any progress besides vibratingf every three or so minutes. Why is this?
I'm having this EXACT same problem with my iPhone 4, and I have the same computer stats (I have a Samsung Series 7)

I have the same problem updated my Apple TV 2 yesterday and it got stuck on the Apple and the apple tv is blinking at a steady. Restored in iTunes hooked it back up to my tv, input all my settings, wifi, apple id, and netflix. and did not do anything else, came back in and the light was blinking steady on the apple tv again and stuck on the Apple logo. Restored in itunes again and hooked back up, just hooked up my wifi settings and manually rebooted. Same thing got stuck on the apple logo. What to do?

i plugged up my phone and it said i needed to restore it to factory settings so i did and now its stuck on a screen that shows i need to plug my phone up to itunes and restore it but my phone is already connected to itunes. ive tried resetting my phone and it just goes back to that screen and i have also tried to unplug and plug my phone back but it still keeps getting stuck at the 'preparing iphone for restore' bar thing at the top. how long is this process supposed to take? i was only trying to put one song on my phone and i had done it yesturday with no problem and the day before that. please help
I had this issue also. My last restore took 2 hours, despite restores under 1.x taking something like 20 minutes.
I don't think it's the videos/podcasts, as those don't show up until synchronizing after the restore anyway.
I asked this same question a while ago, but no one responded. I'm not sure if its normal. -
I bought all the new effects for Retrica and now they say I have to purchase them all again
Dr Traed-
There should be a program that came with the camera that can view the AVCHD videos. It may have the ability to save-as other formats.
One program that is good for converting some video formats to M4V or MP4 required by iPad, is HandBrake. <Download Handbrake> If you can save the videos to an intermediate format, HandBrake may be able to complete the comversion to MP4.

The "Software Update" feature is not available in my Ipod 2nd Generation unit while the upgrade option in iTunes keeps on hanging while downloading the upgrade iOS (time out error). So, please tell me how I can upgrade the iOS.
The Settings>General>Software Update comes with iOS 5. The 2G can only go to iOS 4.2.1
Try disabling the computer's security software during the download and update. -
My iMac seems to have frozen during the update- how long should I expect the update to take? The 'installing software update' bar is still showing itself working but has been stuck in the same position for over an hour. Any thoughts?
Update2: There is something very wrong with wireless on mountain lion recovery. I don't know what the problem is, but this link may explain:
http://osxdaily.com/2012/08/10/os-x-mountain-lion-10-8-1-beta-released-for-dev-t esting-may-include-wi-fi-fix/
Wireless recovery would start out with over 25 hours estimated and kept on failing. It turns out to be a two step process of downloading a few Mbytes then a 4Gbyte .dmg file, but I couldn't even download the Mbyte file. I bought the thunderbolt to gigabit ethernet adapter, plugged it in, restarted recovery and download of a little more than 4Gbytes took less than an hour. My limiting factor was probably comcast home internet rate of 12Mbps. The wi-fi wireless connection should be able to do over 100Mbps, so wireless shouldn't be much slower than wired, except wi-fi wireless is broken. Now that ML is installed and updated, wi-fi seems fine now, as I am using it right now, but I haven't tried downloading a big file yet.
Don't use wi-fi wireless for Mountain Lion recovery. -

when i try to reset my ipod it stops at 10minutes and the ipod turns itself on and acts like ive done nothing to it, it has been stuck on the "connect to itunes screen" and it wont reset. why?
After you place the iPod in recovery mode using
iOS: Unable to update or restore
You have to then connect the iPod to your computer and restore via iTunes. Are you doing that? -
Hi, i have an iPad4 and for the last two days it has been stuck with the iCloud Backup pop up. I cant click on OK or turn it off. It has been connected to a wifi network and left locked and plugged in all day. Any one got any ideas please?
Reset it by holding the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then release.

Does find my phone have a history that shows where your phone has been like in the last 24-72 hours?
All you may infer is the device hasn't been turned on where it can connect to Wi-Fi.
The phone may be jailbroken if there is no lock passcode to prevent access. However, the phone can be completely erased and restored as new. In this case you will have no ability to locate it or prevent it from being jailbroken.

You cannot recover your loss unless you insure your device for such loss. It is not covered by your warranty.
If your iPhone, iPod, iPod Touch, or iPad is lost or stolen what do you do? There are things you should have done in advance - before you lost it or it was stolen - and some things to do after the fact. Here are some suggestions:

I am using XP-SP3 & Firefox. When installing Flash Player Software i get a message: "This Publisher has been blocked from running software on this machine". How do i unblock it - HELP.
Hi,
This is a security setting on your system that is resulting in this behaviour, not Flash Player installer itself, or anything with the installer. There are many Google search results on this. The first hit I got, was the following from the Microsoft forums:
To unblock a software publisher:
1. In Internet Explorer, click the Tools button, and then click Internet Options.
2. Go to the Content tab, Look under the Certificates section.
3. Click on Publishers button.
4. Select the Untrusted Publishers tab.
5. Select the Publisher you wish to unblock and click the Remove button.

My iphone4 has been stuck on the connect to itunes logo for a few hours. I connected it to itunes and it says that the iphone is on recovery mode and that I need to restore it to use it with itunes. I'm afraid that if I restore it I will loose everything help please!!
AT this point whatever data you have on yoru phone is already gone since it is in recovery mode.
However you can restore from your backup, when your phone reboots from recovery.
YOu do have a backup right?
