What does it mean , when my iphone wont turn on and the apple symbol keeps flashing

my iphone wont reboot or turn on and the apple symbol just keeps poping up

Try:                                               
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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.

  • What does it mean when my ipod wont turn on for 5th generation

    My iPod doesn't want to turn on. I will hold the power button but nothing happens. Earlier today before this was posted, my IPod was working fine. What does this mean?

  • HT1551 what does it mean when I see a black screen with the Apple logo but it wont do anything but that.  I have re booted 4 times  same outcome.  Help!

    I just hooked up my Apple TV.  I see a black screen with Apple logo.  Nothing else happens.  Remote functions as I see the white light respond.  Have rebooted 4 times but same thing occurs.  What should I try.
    Thanks.

    If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    Open iTunes.
    Select your Apple TV in the Source list, and then click Restore.

  • What does it mean when my iphone says sim not compatible?, what does it mean when my iphone says sim not compatible?

    I've recently bought an iPhone and got my phone number switched over to a micro sim card.. But when i try to set the iPhone up it keeps saying Sim card not compatible. What does this mean?

    Your iphone is liely locked to a carrier.
    You would need a SIM card from that carrier or you would have to ask that carrier of they unlock iphones and if you qualify.

  • My iphone wont turn on and the power button is not functioning

    my iphonw wont turn on and the power button is not functioning

    If your power button is broken, there's not much you can do. You could go to an Apple store & do an out of warranty exchange...Apple doesn't fix iPhones, they replace them. But, I wouldn't recommend doing so, as the iPhone 3G was discontinued almost three years ago & won't run most apps in the app store.
    You'd be better served by selling it for parts & using the money to purchase a new phone.

  • What does it mean when an iphone sends an imessage to an ipad but it doesnt say delivered?what does this mean?, what does it mean when an iphone sends an imessage to an ipad but it doesnt say delivered?what does this mean?

    why doesn't it say delivered when you send an imessage from and iphone to an ipad?what does this mean?

    It means that the device the message was sent to did not reply that it had been received by the device.

  • What does it mean when a pop up comes up and says that someone else is using the same IP address as myself?

    It only comes up a couple times, but what does it mean? Does it mean I've been hacked or something? It also says to change my IP address if it happens again but how the heck do I do that? I don't even know how to contact my network manager to find out what's going on? Is this something I really need to worry about? Please help I need to know what's going on?! Thank you!

    It means that your router doesn't assign IP addresses based on a hash of the devices MAC address but instead assigns them in sequential order.
    On Monday device A had IP address X and device B had IP address Y because they were turned on in the order A then B.
    On Tuesday device B was turned on first and it got IP address X for whatever reason.
    When devfice A was turned on it asked for IP address X but was rejected because X was already in use.
    That's when the error message was displayed.  It's complaining that the IP address it had yesterday isn't available today because it's already in use by another device.
    If the router has the ability to do DHCP reservations, configure the router to assign IP addresses based on the device's MAC address.
    Or always turn devices on in the same order.
    Or get a high end router.

  • What does it mean when iTunes say "not enough memory" and won't let me buy songs?

    Everytime I try to purchase a song, I get a message that says "The iTunes store cannot complete your request. There is not enough memory available." I have plenty of space on my computer. What does this mean, and how do I fix it?

    You need to do as the message says and contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • My iphone wont turn on and in itunes it says error 21 what can i do?, my iphone wont turn on and in itunes it says error 21 what can i do?

    my iphone 5 wont turn on and in itunes it says error 21 what can i do please help, can it be the battery?

    Hey pilisaez,
    Thanks for the question. The following article outlines restore error 21:
    iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
    Error 20, 21, 23, 26, 28, 29, 34, 36, 37, and 40
    These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. Use the steps to troubleshoot security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See the steps under the heading "Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store." If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • Why is my iphone screen turning black with the apple symbol?

    My iPhone 3GS has been randomly blacking out to the screen with the apple symbol or just a blank white screen and will remain frozen like that.  I have reset it pressing the home and power button but most times the screen returns to the apple symbol and the phone does not load.  A few times the screen has just been showing random html code when I reset it.  Sometimes it gets back to my log-in screen but then kicks me back out.

    Is your phone by chance jailbroken? If not then you may have to make a genius appointment and have them check it out. Also try restoring the phone as a new phone and see if that fixes the problem.

  • What does it mean when my iPhone won't turn on?

    My iPhone 4 has been messing up for the last couple of days.  It would turn off on its own & wouldn't turn back on again.  When I got it to turn on before, the screen would turn green & then would turn right back off. Now it won't even turn on. Is this a battery issue? I just got this phone about 2 months ago to replace an old one that shattered.

    I had an issue like that before on my iphone 3G green screen then it blacks out.. Try this if this fix will work for you..
    I plugged my iphone on the computer using the original apple cables for a couple of minutes 5-10 atleast, then long press the power button. and it turned back on.. it worked for me. back then. i dunno maybe you can try it.
