IPhone :: Restoring / Updating Failure?
Mar 28, 2012
I tried updating my phone while I was at school. I come home and it's been in the same downloading state for the past 5 hours. I unplug my iphone and now there's a picture of a usb connecting to an iphone. However, it won't restore to my computer because it says everytime it says there's an error that occurred. And everytime I try to restart my iphone, it goes back to the same picture. How do I go back to the way my iphone is supposed to be?

A few days ago my Iphone 5 screen went black and would not turn on or anything but it would still vibrate and if i held down the home button the little siri sound would go off. This had happened once before a short while ago and i just let the phone die all the way then charged it and it worked fine so that's what i did this time. When it came back on this time though, it was still just black but it would also be flashing the apple logo.
I tried a bunch of things that people were suggesting online and watched youtube vidoes but nothing seemed to work, also every once in a while it would go to the lock screen and i swiped and pushed home and stuff and nothing would happen it just said it was searching where it would usually say verizon. Once while the screen was doing this i held power and the home button which is what many of these youtube videos said to do and it worked, telling me to connect it to itunes for the recovery process.
Once it was connected to itunes i tried to update it to ios8 and it seemed to be working at first but then it said unkown error and when i tried to restore it the same thing happened, i tried both of these multiple times with the same result.

I attempted to update my iphone 3 using itunes. I'm not certain but I believe I did a backup on my pc first. I am now unable to use the phone at all - the slide bar won't move and I have a camera icon next to the slide bar which is not responsive. I have tried to sync and even left the phone connected to the pc overnight. The phone is going flat within a couple of hours and won't stop beeping every few seconds and seems to be syncing all the time, even when disconnected from pc. I am fearful that I have lost all my contacts - nothing is working?

I would like to put in some new maps (for another country) on my N95 8GB as I have done several times before, but it looks like I can't do it the way as I have done before. As I remember I previously did it by choosing maps in Nokia PC Suite which sent me to a map download program. Now it just sends me to a ovi-map website that says "Navigation on your Nokia is now free".But how do I load a new map into my existing map software on my N95 8GB?Is it possible in some way to get free navigation working on N95 8GB?

Yesterday night i connected Xperia X10i to the computer PC Companion popup opens for 2.1 update. I followed the instructions and took backup in the third step after downloading new software while updating a popup window appeared "unable to Update try later" the phone is still connected to the PC and Internet connection is also fine. I have disconnected from PC then it is asking for step 3(switch off phone then press and hold back button step) again did that no Luck. Now the phone is not starting at all I think it formatted all the software..My phone is almost in dead condition. Now if I connected to the PC it is not detecting as a mass storage also and PC companion is not at all recognizing.

I am currently out of town on business (and will be for a few more weeks).I pre-ordered my iPhone 4, it arrived at home and my wife turned around and shipped it to me at my hotel.I will get it tomorrow.With all the problems that have been reported (reception, yellow and sensor issues) I'm concerned about activating my phone. If I activate and find that I have a problem, is it possible to re-activate my 3GS? Effectively switching BACK to my 3GS?

New iPhone 6. Update to iOS 8.1.1 crashed the phone necessitating a restore from backup. Since upgrading, device overheating (you could fry an egg on it) with intense battery drain and Touch ID just totally failed. When trying to re-initiate, the training screen quits immediately to a failure screen. Unable to delete old training data.

My iPhone 4S refuses to WiFi sync (automatically or manually) because it seems that it cannot locate my iMac. Everytime I try to manually sync over WiFi by going to Settings/General/iTunes WiFi Sync, I can press the button -- IT IS NOT GREYED OUT -- but the sync constantly says "LOOKING FOR iMac and then timesout. I cannot see the device in the iTunes sidebar unless I plug in via USB -- as soon as I unplug, my iPhone disappears. The oddest thing is, when I first got the phone, it worked perfectly -- and then it randomly stopped -- and has never worked again. Here's my setup:
27" iMac (Late 2009) running OS X Lion version 10.7.3?Airport Extreme running firmware 7.6.1 with a/b/g/n bands enabled -- secured with WPA2 Personal.iPhone 4S 32GB running iOS 5.1 Here's what I've tried so far:
The basics: Making sure the WiFi Sync box is checked. Made sure both devices are connected to the same WiFi network. Uncheking and re-checking the Wifi Sync box and re-syncing. Making sure that "Open iTunes when this device is connected" is checked. Made sure that "Prevent iDevices from syncing automatically" is unchecked. Restart all devices (i.e. iPhone, iMac, Airport). Hard Reset iPhone. I have also tried: Restoring the iPhone from a backup. Restoring the iPhone as a new device. Deleting all existing iPhone backups. Wiping the Airport Extreme and re-configuring. Using the "restart your Airport from your iPhone through Airport Utility" method that has been suggested. Hardcoding IP's for both my iMac and iPhone into the Airport Extreme. Disabiling wireless security on the Airport. Disabling Mac OS X firewall. Port forwarding the necessary ports. Uninstalling iTunes using the necessary terminal commands and reinstalling. Opening the ports Apple suggests in the WiFi Sync support article on both the Airport and the OS X firewall.
Some notes: I know my iPhone and iMac are aware of one another because the Sync Now button isn't greyed out. I can also PING my iPhone from my iMac using the Network Utility successfully. Two other family members have 4S's in my home on the same network that sync with Windows PC's without issue. Whatever this is, it's isolated to my iMac.

It's has appears after a restoration. My iMessage setting stays deactivated. Or when I try to activate it, it fails. No error in particular. Just try again.It has been more than a month that I try again. Even more.I don't understand why. For other users, it's working, so, it doesn't seem That the Apple server is down. I am starting to wonder if it is not the hardware that has a problem now. And of course, Facetime doesn't work neither. Same error message.

iPhone 4, iOS 5.1, It has worked before.

In the past, my iPhone had a history of freezing up at the Apple logo or constantly searching for cellular service. Three weeks ago, my iPhone was constantly searching for cellular service and thus caused the phone to be lagging and skipping while browsing. After connecting to iTunes by USB and doing a factory reset, that solution fixed the problem.
This weekend, when I turned on the phone, it was stuck on the Apple logo. I consulted the Genius Bar at the Apple store and they suggested me to do another factory reset, with me doing a backup to my computer and not iCloud. I did so, as well as transferring data piece by piece (apps first, then music, then pictures, etc.) I did this all yesterday. Today, my phone fails to turn on at all. No Apple logo, nothing. I connect to iTunes by USB, iTunes goes to do a factory reset of the device, but an error 28 pops up and quits the restoration process. Are all these signs of hardware failure on my phone? This seems to happen everytime I turn off the phone for the day and turn it on again the next day. Are iPhones not supposed to be powered off, but constantly on?

I had a 1G ipod touch for a while and ad my collection in itunes and the ipod. Then due a hard drive failure, I had to start itunes over because after that point, I finally got an external hard drive. My ipod died during the process (unrelated). This happened a little while ago, and my new iPhone is set to be delivered in a couple days. Are my paid apps lost forever? I am afraid to download any paid apps since I'm not sure if I will be charged for it. Is there any way to recover them?
