Will not turn on or charge or update etc

My blackberry curve 8520's battery recently went dud, or what I was led to believe was the battery as the phone would turn on without the battery on charge but with the battery in it would do nothing. I got a new battery and it turned on, I updated it to the new software and everything was fine, then it did it again. Wont turn back on, except this time the led light still comes on when the battery is in but does nothing else. I tried plugging it into the computer but nothing still. Anyone know what is going on? 

I jus experienced this very common issue tonight.  Let me mind you i never dropped my phone once nor has it ever gotten wet or exposed to moisture its been in an otter box since i bought it and that was like 9 months ago.  But i tried everything that everybody said to do and  to my surprise in about a couple of mins the apple symbol came on and was working like nothing happened.  I guess this is really common issue for this product.  But problem is highly solved.

    "iPod software update server could not be contacted. The Server does not support this version of iTunes." iPod will not turn on or charge or reset settings. I tried plugging it in my laptop, house computer and docking station to charge and nothing. Also, I have all the latest software updates to my knowledge. This is a classic 8GB iPod, running of Windows 7. Any thoughts/suggestions?

    only thing that seems to work so far is syncing without photos and also check here https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3206849?start=30&tstart=0

    Hey bellabeanbag,
    Thanks for the question. The following resource outlines troubleshooting steps if your iPad is not responding:
    iPad: Basic troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3274
    If iPad won't turn on, or the display stops responding
    Follow these steps, testing after each:
    1. Turn the iPad off and turn it on again. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on top of iPad for a few seconds, until a red slider appears. Then slide the slider. Then press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    2. Reset iPad. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If iPad still won't respond after you restore it
    Follow these steps, testing after each:
    1. If you receive an alert in iTunes while restoring your iPad, refer to this article for instructions on how to resolve common issues with updating and restoring.
    2. If you cannot restore your iPad in iTunes, or if iTunes does not recognize the device, refer to this article for instructions on restoring using recovery mode.

    My iphone 5c will not turn on or charge. What can I do?

    Connect it to a known-good Apple USB charging cable & power adaptor, connected to a known-good power source. 
    Leave it connected for at least one hour.
    Disconnect it from the charging cable.
    Press & hold the Home Button & Sleep/Wake button for up to 30 seconds, until the Apple logo appears, then release those buttons.

  • HT1349 my iphone will not turn on or charge?

    my iphone will not turn on or charge it is the 4s and only 2 months old

    The same when connected to the power adaptor?
    Do you have access to another USB dock connector cable to rule out a problem with the existing cable you are using?
    If not and you are in the U.S. or in any country where AppleCare is available and/or an Apple store, you can call AppleCare or make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby. The iPhone includes a one year warranty.

    My IPhone will not turn on, I charged it last night and it had a complete charge and during a phone call it just died and will not come back on.

    Connect iPhone to Wall Charger for 10 minutes, it may turn ON itself. If still nothing, keep on charger and Reset, hold both home and power buttons for about 20 seconds until the iPhone begins to respond.

  • My blackberry will not turn on or charge

I left it for 3hours to charge but it will not turn on, ive tried taking my battery out for a couples mins and placed it back in still doesnt work..... Can anyone help???
    Thanks

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    Allowing these batteries to drain completely can damage them, including reducing their useful life as well as rendering them useless. But, some tests can help determine if that is the case for you...
    Please try this sequence...note that, throughout the entire 4h15m process, your BB must remain connected to a known-good wall charger (not PC USB):
    With the battery inside, connect your BB to the wall charger
    Leave it alone for 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
    Remove the battery
    Wait 15 minutes
    Insert the battery
    Wait another 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
    This has been known to "kick start" some BBs.
    It is also possible that your battery or BB has experienced a problem...to test, this sequence is needed:
    Obtain an known good and already fully charged additional battery...use it in your BB and see what happens
    Obtain access to a known good and identical BB...use your battery in it and see what happens
    The results of this will indicate if it's your BB or your battery that has the problem. Note carefully please that "new" and "known good" are not necessarily the same thing. The simplest (and least expensive) method to carry out this test is to find someone with an identical BB with no issues...trade batteries and see what happens.
    Good luck and let us know!

  • How to fix an ipod touch 4th generation that will not turn on or charge

    My ipod touch 4th generation randomly turned off and will not turn back on or charge.  I have tried restarting it, resetting it, and letting it "charge" for weeks but nothing has worked.  It is not registered by itunes when plugged into the computer either and there hasn't been anything dramatically done to it.  I also cannot do anything to update its software since it isn't being recognized by itunes or turning on.
    Thanks in advance to whoever has helpful information!

    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 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.

  • IPod touch will not turn on unless charged

    Hi,
    I have reset my iPod, tried turning off and on again dozens of times but every single time I tried to open an app or attempt to play music when it isn't connected to my computer or plugged it shuts off and will not turn back on until I charge it again.
    It is 100% charged and every time I take it off charge to turn on, the startup logo appears and switches itself off.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
