HT1414 restoring my iphone 3gs is not completeing and the phone is not working

restoring my iphone 3gs is not completing and my phone is not working i took it to my local phone shop they told me that the new itunes will not fit onto the iphone 3gs, how can i get my phone to work.

If your restore is failing, there could be MANY issues... You may need to restore the phone back to "new phone" during the restore... PAY ATTENTION HERE... You will lose ALL contacts, photos, videos, voice memos, etc... But you will be able to re-add your apps< and music through itunes. that is very last resort though. if that doesnt work, I would look into updateing your phone. Personally I wouldn't get the 5, just because I dont need the additonal size screen... I have the 4S and LOVE it!! but, do some research, and see what you can find on the matter. But it sounds like your headed down hill fast with that phone... May be best just to upgrade and save yourself the frustration...

Has anyone had a similar problem where the phone will not shut off and the home button does not respond

You should try taking it to the Apple Store and asking for a replacement.
Or you could enable Assistive Touch from Settings>General>Accessibility.

My iPhone 3gs was charged completely and just randomly turned off today. The screen is blank and the phone does not respond to a charger or the computer. Is it broken or fixable?

My IPhone 4s is freezing up and the wifi will not work. This happened after the update. I have tried to restore it and that did not fix it. Any suggestions?

Most of your purchases content can be downloaded again via the Purchased tabs in each of the store. I realize that this will be a problem for the iTunes Store on the iPad, but that has nothing to do with apps, since apps are in the App Store.
If you backed up synced with iTunes before you restored the iPad, your content should be in iTunes on your Mac and you should be able to sync it back again.

Error 1015: This error is typically caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Downgrading to a previous version is not supported. To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple. This error can also occur when an unauthorized modification of the iOS has occurred and you are now trying to restore to an authorized, default state.

I dropped my iphone in water and the phone will not turn back on or charge...

I dropped my iPhone in water and the phone will not turn back on or charge... I know its probably fried and I need it repaired but is there any possible way I would be able to save the information that was on it. Pictures or videos? Most of my pictures were saved on my i Cloud, but some information had not been uploaded like my videos.
Does apple provide any sort of recovery services?
Thanks
Jesus

Hi jesusdeloera,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
If your iPhone was being backed up to the iCloud or iTunes, you will be able to restore from that backup and recover the data that was on the device at the time of backup once you have your iPhone repaired. Please review the attached information about iCloud and iTunes backups.

When I plug in my iphone my charging symbol does not appear and my phone is not charging.

When I plug in my iphone 4 my charging symbol does not appear and my phone is not charging. Do I need a new battery? It is only a year old.

Can you try a different charger/USB lead? Also check the connector on the bottom of the iPhone for pocket fluff

APPLE ICON JUST FLASHING ON MY IPHONE on connection to laptop or charging source and the phone does not come on

Dear All,
I am requesting help to resolve problem on my iPhone 4S. The Apple Icon is just flashing on connection to charging source or to the computer and the phone does not come on. Need help as this phone is driving me crazy.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > store, scroll down and tap your ID)
If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

We bought a new prepaid phone on 10/5/14 at a Verizon store. Had an existing phone number transfered and the phone can not be activatde. When will the system be updated? We have lost 2 days of service and now cannot use the original phone due to moving service to Verizon.

The exact same thing has happened to me! The customer service reps keep saying there is nothing they can do until their system upgrades are complete and they can't tell me when that will be! I need my phone number back!!! Somebody please help with this issue!

HT4061 the screen is blank and the phone does not respond even after pressing the on/off and home button. the only reaction is the vibration felt when I plug in to charge the phone. What should I do?
