Why does my Iphone 4 keep going to a blank screen?

My Iphone 4 keeps going blank.  I have to reset it.  The last time it wouldn't come back.  Had to go to ATT store.  They plugged it in to wall and it came back on.  It's doing it more and more.
What is wrong?

Try a Restore...
1: Connect the device to Your computer and open iTunes.
2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.

  • Why does my iphone 5 keep going into restore mode?  i had to restore it because it wouldn't let me do anything else and it goes into this mode at least once a day now.

    My iPhone5 went into restore mode.  I restored it and now it goes into restore mode at least once a day.

    Restore as new.  If the issue persists, take the device to Apple for evaluation.

  • Why does my iphone 4 keep dropping wifi connection since ios5.0.1update

    Why does my iphone 4 keep dropping wifi connection since ios5.0.1 update, it worked perfectly before, my wifes 3gs connects fine and stays connected while my £400 paperweight losses connection, thinking of going back to nokia! Sort it out apple!

    If the "oh so Great Apple" were to monitor these forums then they might see all the problems
    that the people who have paid good money for their devices are having, i suppose they can do no wrong
    In your eyes, i just thought that if you pay a lot of money for a product that works fine, and you update
    It with a firmware update that they kept going on about how good it was and it can do this and it can
    Do that, then i think they should sort it out. I don't care if i "don't deserve to be an apple owner" or not,
    The fact is i paid my money and it should do what its suppose to do, i moved from Nokia to Apple because
    The N97 was crap and i put up with it for too long, and they didn't do anything to fix the bugs they just stopped
    Selling it and basically said tough s**t, so now this is happened i hoped Apple whould be better but they seem
    To be just like the rest.

  • Why does my iPhone camera keep telling me "Cannot take photo" there is not enough available storage to take a photo, etc? I have it hooked up to ICloud and the cameral roll???

    Why does my iPhone camera keep telling me "cannot take photo" there's not enough storage, but I have my phone/camera roll hooked up to Icloud and have purchased additional storage???

    iCloud storage has nothing to do with remaining memory on the phone - only memory for backups and Photostream.  The photo has to first be stored on the phone and copies sent to iCloud.  If there is not enough available memory on the phone, the photo can't be taken.
    To determine the remaining memory on the phone:
    Settings > General > Usage > Storage
    The Camera Roll is meant for temporary storage of photos, which should be imported to an app on your computer and deleted from Camera Roll.  You can then sync back those photos which you want to keep on the phone.

  • Why does my iPhone 4 keep sending emails instead of texts via iMessage?

    Why does my iPhone 4 keep sending emails instead of texts via iMessage?

    This was driving me crazy but I've cracked it!!
    Go to: Settings, Messages, Send & Receive.  My mobile number was greyed out and wouldn't allow me to select it.  My email address was highlighted but it also allowed me to "Add An Email".  I selected my current email address and it gave me the option to delete it.  Once I deleted my email address, it automatically reverted to my mobile number!!
    Hip hip hooray.  I can relax at last.

  • Why does my iPhone 4 keep loosing it's ability to download emails or connect to the Internet?  I can power it off at when I restart I can send and receive but after awhile all I get is it trying to connect.

    Why does my iPhone 4 keep loosing it's connection to download emails or go onto safari?  If I power down the phone and restart it then it will connect but shortly after it will loose the connection and then just shows connecting in email or in safari unable to connect to the Internet 

    I'm guessing it's more likely a problem with your carrier's 3G network in the area. You shouldn't have to modify any settings for 3G to work consistently on a supported carrier.
    You can try turning off 3G data, with will switch over to Edge if it exists. If it does, it will be much slower than 3G, but I suppose faster than 0 is better than 0.
    I'd contact your carrier about it.

  • Why does my Iphone 4 keep telling my that my apple password is incorrect even after I have just changed and rest my password?

    Why does my Iphone 4 keep telling my that my apple password is incorrect even after I have just changed and rest my password?

    Sign out of your Apple ID then back in again with changes
    also delete ICloud then sign back in again with new password.

  • Why does my iphone 4 keep cutting out in conversation after 2-3 minutes

    why does my iphone 4 cut out when calling someone after 2-3 miutes

    Sounds like something got corrupted during your upgrade.
    I would restore from a last known good backup if I were you.
    If that doesn't work I would set the phone up as new and re-install all of your apps and re-sync your music again.

  • HT1515 why does my airport express keep going offline?

    i use airport for air play but it keeps going into flashing amber light about every week. why?

    I found on some non-Apple tech sites some interesting info. One guy was having the same exact issues and wrote a script to see what was going on between the Airport base station and the Airport Expresses. It appears that the two devices were having security verification issues and that is why the Airport Expresses get getting knocked offline.   In other words, when they talk with each other they fail the security verification and the Airport Expresses go haywire.
    So the solution is to turn off the security on both the Airport base station and the Airport Expresses through the Airport Utility. Then, on the Airport base station you check the option to create a closed network.  In other words, your wi-fi network is now unprotected but it is not broadcasting to anyone that it is there. From then on, you will have to choose "other" on your laptops/iPads/iPhones/etc and type in your wi-fi network's name rather than just choosing your wi-fi network from a list of options.
    I did this a few weeks back and I have had zero issues since the very moment I did the above steps. The network is 100% reliable and faster. No more rebooting. Is it a tad bit unprotected?  Yes, but no one knows the network is there. If someone is smart enough to be looking for non-broadcasting wi-fi networks and finding yours, then they are sophisticated enough to defeat your normal security protocols anyway. Maybe if Apple ever decides to fix this problem, which appears they might not be interested in doing, then you could go back to normal security protocols. But until then, this works wonderfully. Give it a try and see.

  • Why does my iPhone 3gs keep crashing?

    My iPhone 3GS keeps chucking me out of everything - apps, web and even typing a text!  Its infuriating, I just get to the end of typing a message and it just goes off and back to the "home" screen.  When I go back in to the text that I typed has gone!!!  If I am googling or on Facebook it does the same thing. 
    Has anyone else had this?  Any tips (apart from sledge hammer) would be gratefully received!!! Thanks!

    Hi gdmacguy - I have done a full restore and it still does it... it constantly chucks me out of texting and using apps - its also stopped my iTunes from playing after about 8 mins which is really irritating when I am in the gym!!!
    Do you have any other ideas of what I can do please?

  • HT201401 Why does my iPhone 3G keep turning off by itself even when it's not dead?

    My dad had his iPhone 3G and gave it to me when he had an upgrade. He never had the issue of it turning off by itself, but when he gave it to me, all of a sudden it decided to turn off by itself even when it was on like 80% still.
    I took it in to the Apple Store near me and they said that I had too much "stuff" on it, mostly music.
    So, I completely redid my phone. I reset it completely so that it looked like a completely new iPhone. And then downloaded only 12 apps and 195 songs. And, only about 50 pictures. (This is an 8 gig by the way)
    Right now, there's less than 4 gigs on there so far meaning I still have more than half of my phone to fill. They guy at the store said it needs 2 gigs to run.
    SO, it should have started working since theres way less stuff on there now, and more than enough space to run. Why does it keep turning off still though?
    It's so annoying and inconvenient. If anyone could help it would be SO appreciated.
    THANKS!!

    Basics from the manual are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as a new device.  Go through each step in succession until your issue is resolved.

  • Why does my iPhone 3gs keep getting kicked off of the internet?

    When I start going onto the internet page the page comes on then as I amreading it it goes to black and back to the home page for the iphone.
    Why does this happen?

    Mine does that too. I was wondering if it was due to the OS and that sometimes its too much for the 3GS. I've had mine almost 3 years.  Maybe someone more knowledgeable will help. :)
    (i finally upgraded to the iPhone 5 so I'm looking forward to that!)
