Won't charge or turn on...Please help

Hi,
I was out last night and not able to charge my Iphone 5 so it completely died. I came home and plug in phone to a wall charger. Got up and went to turn it on and nothing, so I tried holding the power buttonand home button for 30 second and still nothing. I have tried plugging into my computer but it doesn't seem like it's connecting to the computer to charge either. I have had this phone for about a month. If anyone else has ever had this happen please help.
Thanks in advanced

Hold down only the Power button down only right now, not the Power and Home buttons at the same time, holding them at the same time is a forced SHUTDOWN (Known by most as a hard reset), not STARTUP.

My I phone 4s (I think) won't charge or turn on Please help!

I have tried holding the 2 buttons to reset and nothing happens. The phone was on charge all night and only showed 1% battery so I turned it off and now it is non responsive. Please help!

Attempt to perform a hardware restart on the device while it is plugged into the wall charger. To perform a hardware restart hold down the sleep/wake button on top of the device and also the home button underneath the touch screen until you get the Apple logo on the screen. Be sure to let go of the buttons once you see the Apple logo so the device does not enter DFU mode. If the device does not power on then most likely your device needs repair/replacement in which you may want to visit an Apple Retail Store or contact AppleCare at 1-800-692-7753. Hope this helps.

My iPhone 4 (about 2 years old now), won't charge or turn on, please help!

Could it be, is my battery finally completely dead? Does Apple schedule your device to die a month or so before their next iPhone launch date? :/ I wanted to wait to upgrade to the next iPhone but mine just seemed to die out of nowhere. Here's the background:
It's about 2 years old now. I did replace the screen about 8 months ago when it shattered, that was through a third party. I think ever since I did that, the touch sensors were a little wacky (i.e. when I made phone calls, my cheek would still press buttons on the device even though the touch senssors should be off when you have it up to your cheek). But overall, it was "ok". I knew I was due for an upgrade but it was fine for the time being.
So last night I left my iphone charging and when I woke up, it was dead. I tried charing it but it was not responding. I've held down the power button and home button at the same time for at least a minute at a time while the phone is charging through a wall socket. Still nothing.
Question one: Is it fixable and if so, how?
Question 2: If it's not fixable, can I still get my information (i.e. contacts and whatever else) off the device?
Thank you for any help!!

1. you may have to take it in to Apple and get an out of warranty iphone for $199.
2. you can get your information from a backup of your phone. you do have a backup of your phone right either in iTunes or icloud. If you don't then your answer will be no.

Since downloading ios8 iPad 2 won't charge or turn on! help!

Hi guys,
i updated to ios8 last week, since then my ipad2 has done nothing but run terribly slow, two nights ago my battery went low and cut out all together. I put the iPad on charge aand it just won't charge up or turn on at all now.
I Have tried pressing the two buttons together many times. It's been on charge for two days straight, I've plugged it into my laptop to see if the greater power source could boot it up. None of this worked
Tonight i went went to the Trafford centre Apple store and got no help at all. qued for half an hour to get my iPad plugged into a laptop and forgotten about, felt like because I wasn't buying anything they didn't want to know! So going into a store hasn't helped me either.
I Was just wondering has this happened to anyone else? I don't know what to do about it and am lost without it! If anyone has any advice please help!!

1. The most efficient way to charge an iPad is with the charger that came with the iPad and having that plugged into a wall outlet. Trying to charge while connected to a laptop often doesn't work because the USB port may not provide enough power.
2. Once an iPad battery has completely drained it may take an hour or more on the wall charger before the iPad responds. So after an hour on the charger reset the iPad. Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button continuously until the Apple logo appears. Then release the button and let the device restart. You will not lose data doing this. It's like a computer reboot.
3. If the iPad still does not start up make an appt at the Apple store. It will be far better if you have an appointment rather than just walking in because those with appointments will be taken care of before you are.

My Lenovo IdeaPad N580 wont charge or turn on PLEASE HELP

I have been having the problem for about a month now. When i notised it wasn't chargeing i tried everything to fix it googling the problem until the battery finaly died. I sent it to Lenovo Repair depot and after 2 weeks it came back.
On the Action report it said they repaired the problem i had with No Power so they replaced the Mainboard, and top cover. It also said that my laptop passed all functional tests.
I turned on my laptop after reading the Repair Action Report and it had Low battery so i Plugged in the charger and it wasn't charging then after a few minutes it died and everytime i press the power button the battery LED flashes orange meaning it needs to be charged but it WONT CHARGE im stuck the Lenovo Repair Depot Failed to repair this problem and im am about to just salvage this laptop becuase nothing can fix this issue PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

My iPhone 4s is completely dead. Won't charge or turn on. Help!

My phone has been draining the battery irregularly, but just now it won't turn on or charge or anything! iTunes won't respond either. Help!

Did you try using the wall plug to charge?
Charge it at least 15 minutes then
Do a reset (Hold Sleep/Wake and Home buttons about 10 secs or more till Apple logo appears)

Apple Does Not recommend that. Please Read.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1490
From that article
"Portables with built-in batteries"
Current Apple portable computer batteries are pre-calibrated and do not require the calibration procedure outlined in this article. These computers use batteries that should be replaced only by an Apple Authorized Service Provider.

Apple recommend calibrating the battery when you buy a new Macbook and then every few months, or monthly if it used on mains all the time. This, as Apple says is to keep the battery operating at maximum efficiency. When the battery discharges and shuts the macbook down, it still has reserve power for a good number of hours. There is also a logic board battery to hold various settings.
I rather think I will take Apples advice on using their equipment not yours, but I would be intrigued to discover what is it you know that Apple doesnt about its batteries?

My 4th gen iPod touch has been plugged in for hours but it won't charge or turn on

I have a 4th gen iPod touch. It has been plugged in for hours but it won't charge or turn on. I cannot restore it because it won't show up in iTunes. I have tried pressing and holding the home and/or the power key but that does not work as well. I have tried restarting Apple Mobile Support. I have updated my iTunes. I have tried EVERYTHING but it will not turn on at all. Any suggestions?

Hi BCarolinaCopper,
This sounds like you need to have a battery replacment this can be done if you have AppleCare or you will have to pay if unable to if the fault continues please
visit a apple store genuis bar contact them via this link or https://www.apple.com/uk/retail/geniusbar/ or through the support on https://getsupport.apple.com/GetproductgroupList.action
Good Luck

I Just updated the software of my iphone 4s thru phone, now the photo application won't open... Please help me what to do?

Hi! I'm Ralph.. Just updated my iphone 4s from 6.1.2- 6.1.3. ... Now the photo application won't open... Please help me what to do

Why would this be covered under warranty? There is nothing wrong with the device, it simply needs to be restored.
As already stated twice in this thread, disable ALL security software on the computer and restore the device.

Apple does not sell an unlocked iPhone. Some cell carriers offer the option to purchase an unlocked phone at a significantly higher price. Your friend could go to Hong Kong and buy an unlocked phone from an authorized carrier but if he has any problems with the phone, he will need to take it back to the country where he purchased it.

Ipad won't charge unless turned off

My iPad 2 won't charge unless turned off and in some cases not at all. It does this off and on. Typically, it'll stop charging when turned on and I can turn it off and charge it to over 40% (or so. . . .it varies) and then it will charge the rest of the way while turned on. And then, I can go through long periods --maybe a month-- where it will charge as usual (while on) but then suddenly it will stop charging while on and will only do so when off. This back and forth has gone on for several months. Today it stopped charging even when off. Given history, it might kick in and start charging suddenly but I fear that the battery could run out this time and I'll not be able to charge and restart it. I'm at 20%. I am using the iPad 10W charger and I have a new one so the cord is good and it works to charge my iPhone as well. I have also tried rebooting the system, holding down the home and start button. Anyone have experience with this and a solution?

you can also try the universal troubleshooting step of resetting your iPad. No data is lost so don't worry.
You can reset your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
Try again to see if the problem persists.
