Why won't my ipone charge or turn on?

why won't my ipone charge or turn on?
<Edited By Host>

Lets see, could be:
faulty charger
faulty cable
faulty connector
faulty battery or other iPhone hardware
Without any details at all, it is impossible for anyone to say.  You could take it in and let an Apple Genius take a look at it to narrow it down to iPhone hardware or battery.

  • HT1386 why won't my ipad charge from my computer - my iphone does! and where has my facetime and contacts icons gone?

    Why won't my ipad charge from my computer when my iphone does? also where have my facetime and contacts icons gone?

    A computer USB port does not provide enough power to charge and run the iPad at the same time but it will charge it if the iPad is turned off.  It will take about four times as long to charge than with the iPad charger.
    The Contacts icon may be inside a folder, such as Utilities.
    There is no Facetime icon.  Start a Facetime link from a contact.

    why won't my ipod charge when i use my new usb is used?

    A new USB what? Cable? If the old one still works and the new one does not that would point to a bad new cable.

  • Why won't my phone charge properly

    It will charge to about 10 15% then the little plug icon to show its fully charged pops up instead of the lightening bolt I took it into the store to get it checked and they said there is nothing wrong with it the tech just restored it witch I did at home before taking it into the store to get it checked I was very amazed the he couldn't find anything wrong when I got it home I plugged it in to fully charge the battery and to my amazement it charged ok for a bit then seem to get stuck at 87% for about an hr or so I then unplugged it and plugged it back in to get the plug icon again I then did this several more times and it popped up to say it is fully charged I have ruled out the charger and the cable as I have tried 2 of each .  The service tech said that the restore they do in the shop is different than the one we can do at home I am wondering why this is so too and did he tell me something to make me stop asking questions about the phone that he could not answer . If anyone can help it would be a big help thanks heaps

    If you are charging with your computer switch to the wall charger. It can supply twice the current.
    But the real problem is something on your phone that is using power faster than the charger can replenish it. You need to find what it is and fix it. If you have an MS Exchange email account that is the likely cause. Go into Settings for it and turn off all of the switches, reboot your iPhone and see if the problem is solved. If it is, turn the switches back on.
    If that is not the problem go to Settings/General/Background Apps Refresh and turn it off. Then reboot the phone again. If this solves the problem turn it back on, and turn off individual apps until you find the offender

  • Why won't my ipad charged when plugged into a computer?

    I have a new ipad and for some reason it will sync etc when plugged into one of our computers but it won't charge.
    My husbands one charges in the same USB port and on any computer but when I put my ipad into the same ports it says "not charging"why?
    Thank you

    Most computer USB ports don't have enough power to charge an iPad.  Typically, the iPad can only be charged with the supplied adapter.  If your husband's iPad is actually charging, it's charging very, very slow.
    See p. 33-34 of the User Guide.

  • TS3274 Why won't my iPad charge when I connect it to my computer?

    I just got an iPad and I can charge it with the wall charger it came with, but unlike my iPod touch when I plug it into my computer it won't charge. I'm confused as to why it won't.

    The iPad battery requires more power to recharge than the iPod and the USB port on the computer does not supply sufficient power to charge it. Apple recommends that you use the supplied power adapter and plug it into a wall socket.

  • HT201407 why wont my phone wont charge or turn on now

    wont turn on or charge

    My phone seems also to charge 100% when I use the wall charger, but only 80% when I use the USB with my laptop. Both are Apple cables, though the USB cable came with my Nano, and the wall charger I bought separately pre-iPhone.
    I'd like to know why this happens, too. On another battery conversation, one respondent said you can't overcharge the kind of batteries that are in the iPhone (nickel?).
    Does the computer maybe have some sort of sensor that shuts down the charging a little early?

  • Why won't my ipad charge or power on?

    I have had my iPad plugged into the charger for over a day and it will not power up and now it won't turn on.  I have put it into my computer charger, too and it just seems dead.  What do I do?

    Try a Reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

  • Why won't my mac book air turn back on

    My mac book ran out of battery wile it was turned off.
    I have tried charging it over night to full battery and it still say it is starting up after 1-2 hour .
    It will not go to home screen.
    what should I do ?

    Did you reset the SMC? If you did and that didn't work, you can try a PRAM reset:
    Shut down your Mac.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
    If resetting the SMC and PRAM didn't do it, then follow the steps in this Apple note. You didn't say what operating system you're using (iOS is a mobile device operating system). When the steps in the Apple note get to running Disk Utility, if you are running OS X 10.7 Lion or 10.8 Mountain Lion, go into OS X recovery by booting and holding the command and r keys down. You can choose Disk Utility and do the repair disk from there.

  • Why won't my iPhone charge?

    This has been a problem for the past day or two...
    I was facetiming someone and when I put it on charge it would charge and a few minutes later it won't.
    Before I went bed, it took well over 8 hours or so for it to charge, normally it takes like two.
    So comes today, I ran out of battery and when I connected it, it wouldn't charge... Well it says it's charging, but it won't switch on and it's stuck on the charging screen... Furthermore, it also says it's charging, but it won't move up... (The charge bar)
    I've tried using different cables to charge my phone, but the same problem still occurs.
    Any help would be appreciated
    Thank you.

    Are you charging from a wall socket or a PC ?
