i am one of the idiots using iphoneunlockuk, and recently was offered the os4 upgrade, i logged in and accidentally unlocked an already unlocked 3gs,it now shows attach to itunes screen. The guys from iphoneunlockuk, have said that i must now wait for the os4 unlock to come out as that will be the only way to recover my phone, i have paid for this upgrade but they still have not offered it, but have taken my money, how to get my iphone up and running again, they told me to not try the unlock again as it will turn phone into brick, but to wait for OS4?
I just turned on iPhone 3GS and saw notice to update it which I did. After updating the screen shows a iTunes icon and unplugged USB cable. Not sure what is going on and wonder what to do next. I've tried to restart by holding down sleep button and home key in various ways I remember as helping to start up an iPhone when it is stuck, but so far no luck. I tried to upload an image of the screen that I took with PhotoBooth and saved to iPhoto, but it will not upload for reasons beyone me.
I bought a new Verizon 8830 World Edition unlocked from ebay. I confirmed that its unlocked from MEPD command (although it says Network: ''Inactive'' instead of 'disabled').I tried using various GSM network SIMs (India) in it and everytime, it shows an active tower and full signal levels and displays the name of the network correctly. It looks as if its connected to the GSM service at full signal.However, placing calls fail and any call made to the number gives a 'Switched Off' message. i have tried: Battery pull & Wipe out.
About a week ago, my iPhone 5S started acting very strange. Whenever I go into my "Messages" app, it either shows up as a blank white page or shows previous messages but the screen freezes on the page. Sometimes I am able to text but then it starts freezing again. I am unable to call anyone. My battery is drastically draining. My phone just decides to freeze randomly and will turn off by itself. When double clicking the home button to "close" apps, my phone freezes. I have tried to update to the new IOS 8.1.2, but whenever I choose the "agree" option, my phone doesn't do anything.
Just wanted to ask, after the latest update. It feels like you really need to press down on the power button to get the shut down menu to show up.If i don't press down hard enough or right, the shut down menu shows up then it locks and the lock screen shows up. it's quite straight forward, and I don't remember having to hold down the power button for that long for it to shut down.
I gave my sister my old iPhone and it still shows up on my itunes on my computer and tries to sync through wifi, even though she has it synced on her computer now.
How do I stop her iPhone from appearing on my itunes?
I need to replace the digitizer for my Fuze (the screen works fine, just no input)Is this something I can do myself? How does the digitizer attach to the screen? I took it to a repair shop and they said it can't be done because they are glued together.. I'm hoping for more of a sticky-back digitizer solution.. Has anyone done this repair?
I have an iphone 3G Modem firmware 02.28.00 t was jailbroken for me by a friend in UK when brand new. I don’t know which prog was used but I have Cydia and Installer and also a pineapple logo when I reboot. I think there is a sourse app.yellowsn0w in my Cydia too. I don't remember. Anyway, I am abroad now for a year and not going back to UK straight away so I need help here if you can. I have never updated the phone software again after that. Never had any problems until today. As usual, had my MacBook software update done(iTunes was updated too – maybe that's the problem?) and then connected my iphone.
Got the message “SIM is not supported blah, blah, blah…” The phone is working fine otherwise. Calls, texts and everything else are not affected. The only thing is that I can’t update my music, pics, contacts and calendars Please advise what to do. Should I update my iphone Modem firmware? I know that newer software is better but I am worried that I won’t be able to do everything correctly and might block my iphone to “unusable” state. All I want is a minimum of changes – just to get the iphone to upload music, pics, contacts and calendars. If you believe that I should update the Modem firmware – I really want to have all the latest features – please tell me how and what firmware to update to(what’s unlockable now?), what programs to use and everything else. I have been told that I need to "hacktivate" in order to unlock and to be able to sync with iTunes. Can I just unlock without any more jailbreaking? And I must have the required software on my iphone already if it was jailbroken, right?
How can I check in Itunes if Iphone is unlocked without simcard, it is locked to AT&T and they confirmed they will unlock it... prevoiusly when I use to connect Itunes says something like this "Invalid sim" and it doesnt let me sync my phone which is not the case today, as it allows me to sync and let me show all details on the summary page and phone number is n/a
I've been trying to unlock my AT&T iPhone 4 and went through all the procedures with the carier, got the confirmation email from Apple, and have been trying to do the backup restore through iTunes... but haven't gotten the confirmation message in iTunes that the phone is unlocked. I've been restoring from backup, which I think is what I'm supposed to do.I'm trying to avoid the $30 tech support call since my phone is no longer and I'm already outside the US.
Pre-used iPhone 4. Got it from my sister, who unlocked it. (Still, the settings on the phone - Settings/General/Information- still mention the previous provider.)I got a new microSIM card - different provider- and I´m finding several problems to restore it as a new phone on iTunes.Â
1) Can´t update iTunes:
My iTunes is set for automatic updates. But it´s been a while that it no longer gets updated on its own. When trying manually - checking for updates- I get the following message: "the iTunes update server can not be contacted". My internet connection is fine. Re troubleshooting, i´ve modified the host file, refreshed DNS... still not working though.Â
2) Locked iPhone, enter passcode on phone. ?
When connecting iPhone to iTunes, either turned on or off, this message shows: "iTunes could not connect to the iPhone "name" because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the iPhone before it can be used with iTunes."I do not know which password it is referring to. There´s no 4digit security code to unlock it, I deactivated it. What does it rmean?
3) once step 2 is done, Restore as a new phone.
According to the steps that I am supposed to follow, iTunes should recognize my turned off iPhone as in "restoring mode" (turn off completely, connect usb to computer, press start button on iPhone while connecting the other end of the usb cable... Apple logo shows on a black screen. Open iTunes just then, and it´ll recognize the phone is in Restore mode). I´m using Windows 7, iPhone 4, my previous provider is Orange - Europe- and the current one Vodafone. I have an iTunes account, my iTunes works perfectly when syncing my iPod touch - except for the updates-... Software on iPhone is updated - iOS 7.1.1- ...Â
Right now it just shows the apple logo fading in and out. It cannot be powered down, it cannot be picked up by my iTunes account. On occasion it switches to the plug in cord with the arrow to "iTunes" so I run in and hook it upto the computer, open iTunes and nothing. No chime that its noted, no change. It just sits there. I have managed to reset it once and it worked for a day.
iTunes shows my phone has around 1.8k photos, which is not correct, I only have like 40 pictures on phone (that is the actual number of pictures my photo library has). However, if i check the box in the sync settings, iTunes shows this will copy 3560 photos on iPhone and doubles the storage already taken.
Well the funny thing is the 1800 photos (2.88 gb) shown by iTunes as occupied are not bogus! if i add all the storage shown by iTunes, it correctly sums to what my phone capacity is. Which must mean the phone ACTUALLY has this space occupied. Also my iPhone shows only 800 mb occupied by pictures which should be more accurate.
I tried everything: restoring iPhone, rebuilding iPhoto database and so on.
I have a factory unlocked iphone 4s. recently my iphone will not sync to my itunes. The problem started recently when i downloaded/installed the new update, but while it installed, i think there was an error. i had a iphone 4 locked (US) bought purchased a new one since ive been traveling here in asia. another weird thing,I thought i lost some of my old videos, but now these videos are on my phone. anyhow, im very scared that ill lose that content/along with all the other content, although everything should be saved. I have a macbook pro 17" 10.6.8. is there anything i should try before reseting my iphone? also, i have a korean sim and im really bad with phones in general. If i reset/reformat it, i assume i have to enter in some of my phone carriers info to connect right? id like to avoid this at all cost. I just really want my iphone to sync.

I called AT&T about 15 days to request an unlock for my iPhone. Yesterday I got the confirmation email explainig that the IMEI number was unlocked and that I should follow this steps to unlock it:
To complete the unlock, simply:
1. Open iTunes on your Mac or PC and verify that you have internet connectivity.
2. Connect your iPhone using the dock connector to USB cable that came with your iPhone.
3. Backup and restore your iPhone using iTunes . [url]...
4. After restoring, your iPhone will be unlocked.
Well I have done that. And the iPhone won't activate. I have inserted my sim card from Argentina (TELECOM PERSONAL is the company) but when I connect to iTunes it gives me this message:
Your request couldn't be processed. We are sorry, but there was an error processing your request. Please try again later. I have, too, tried to do it through the iPhone, in the activation screen (where it is stuck, by the way) but the same, error message.
Did the most recent update to my iphone 5 and it went through to whole update process, but afterwards my screen displayed a connect to itunes symbol. And my home computer is down so i cant use that to connect to itunes.
So my iphone 3g 8gb is having wifi problems, and I wanna take it to the apple store to get it fixed/replaced. The problem is, I am NOT on att, but t-mobile. So how would I show the Apple Geniuses my wifi problem without having my iphone jailbroken/unlocked. Since I am not on att, I cannot restore and activate the phone without jailbreaking it. How would I show them my wifi problem if all I have is the "Connect to iTunes to activate" screen? Or should I just take it in "hacktivated"/jailbroken?
Seems that they closed whatever they were using to allow syncing by wifi.The device shows its "Ready to Sync" and the status bar on top shows its connected but the phone never shows up in iTunes.I am sure it's nothing more than a software update, but if you use it religiously, you might want to hold off.
When I plugged in the iP4 to iTunes [ 9.2 ] and activated, under SUMMARY, the Capacity is 14GB ? I also checked the phone itself [ Settings - General - About ] and.. it's showing 14GB ? Free Space is 13.80 GB Shouldn't capacity be 16GB ? I haven't installed ANY app, except synced Contacts! Anyone else have the same number for capacity on their 16GB iP4 ?
I took a 30 minute video of my sons kindergarten graduation on my iphone 4s and it shows up on the phone in the camera roll. When i connected it to my computer to tranfer this video to itunes it doesnt show up anywhere, except in my camera roll on my phone. ive transferred many videos and cannot figure out what im doing wron with this one.
Cannot restore my brand new iphone 4s ,got stuck in DFU mode and itunes shows error code (-1). Repeatedly tried from different computers and the same error code pops up (error -1).
