  • Hi, my iphone 5 encountered an unknown error while updating to iOS 7 via itunes and is now stuck in recovery mode and prompts me to restore the phone when I connect it to itunes but then I would lose all my data. Any suggestions please?

    Hi, my iphone 5 encountered an unknown error while updating to iOS 7 via itunes and is now stuck in recovery mode and prompts me to restore the phone when I connect it to itunes but then I would lose all my data. I DO NOT have any back ups on itunes. Is there anyway to get out of recovery mode without restoring or recover data after a restore?
    Or any other suggestions please? Thanks

    As pdroth said, you should have gotten a backup made when you started the update of iOS. If you cannot find a backup, and the phone is in recovery mode, there are no futher suggestions to make. To get the phone working again you have to restore. You cannot force a backup at this time since it is already in recovery mode. It will not allow anything else but a restore at this point.

  • I have updated to IOS 7.1 my music has disappeared and my boyfriend has put his iPod music onto my iPod those also were gone I'd like to know how to get it back if there is anything you can tell me to get my music to pop back up that would be great.

    You can only sync with one computer/iTunes library. If you sync with another iTunes library/computer the media from the iPod will be deleted and replaced with the media on the second computer.
    If you want to change syncing computers then:

    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:

  • My I Mac showed an error while updating the OS and now just hangs. What should I do?

    I Mac asked me to update the OS from 10.7.3. It showed an error and now the computer just hangs. Its become excuriatingly slow. Takes about 15-20 minutes to boot up and takes hours to perform any function. I tried to update the OS again but it keeps showing an error in connecting to the server. What do I do.?

    Have you tried booting into the Recovery HD to check/repair your disk. Restart holding Command+R - once booted select Disk Utility and then select Macintosh HD and click on 'repair disk' If it fixes anything click repair disk again until you get a clean pass. Whilst in Disk Utility you could also 'repair disk permissions' With Macintosh HD still selected click on 'repair disk permissions'. Once done, restart as normal from the Apple menu.
    Then try updating again using the 'combo', available here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1582
    If you still have problems you could try a Safe Boot: restart holding down the shift key until you see the grey progress bar. Once booted restart as normal from the Apple menu.

  • Error while updating to ios 6 -43

       I'm updating from ios 4.3 to 6 and while my iPod (4th gen) was backing up I got this message.
    An error occured while backing up this iPod (-43)
    Would you like to continue to update this iPod?
    Continuing will result in the loss of all contents on this iPod.
    Would I be able to get my things back if I continue? I don't want to restore it.

  • Error while updating to iOS 7

    I'm running an iOS 6 device (iPhone 5) and when i switched my machine on today i got prompted of a new update for my iPhone, so i said continue.
    The update did not finish and i got the following message "The iPhone "iPhone" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (1)."
    I read all there is about error 1, but nothing helped,
    I tried the following methods, but nothing helped, always get the same message:
    Rebooted both the device and machine
    Ensured iTuens and machine are up to date
    Restarted the device in DFU mode
    Restarted the device in Recovery mode
    Downloaded the "ipsw" file and tried to manually restore via iTunes (Alt + Restore)
    None of the above worked...
    At the moment I'm sitting with a bricked device as a result of agreeing to this update.
    any advice on how to recover from this?

    Thanks itsfutur , I did try that, but once the device reboots, I keep getting the Recovery mode screen (iTunes Logo and Cable) asking me to plug it into the machine. and when I do, I go through the whole process all over ending with the same message.
    To my understanding, the upgrade did work, cause the logo and artwork is new, but somewhere along the line it did not continue and stopped! causing the device to be in its current state.

  • Itunes won't detect itouch after getting an error while updating to iOS 6

    Hello, I was updating my itouch 4g to iOS6. I received an error (sorry I didn't manage to record the error)
    Now, my itouch shows only the usb cable and iTunes logo.
    My itunes doesn't detect my itouch.
    However, my computer does detect it as it makes the sound where you detach/attach an USB device.
    I've tried holding the home and top button together but it doesn't work.
    Please help me and thank you in advance!

    - Try manually placing the iPod in Recovery Mode and then try restoring via iTunes.
    - Next try DFU mode and restore.

  • IPhone 4 error while updating to iOS 5 - An error occurred while restoring this iPhone (-35).

    After taking over an hour to backup and restore my iPhone to iOS 5 iTunes gave me that error:
    An error occurred while restoring this iPhone (-35).
    Anyone know what this is?
    None of my apps have been restored, or settings.

    Try it again. Or un plug and try again.
    Sometimes I have found if the server is busy it will not verify the phone and you start to loose things. If a back up was done before upgrade you will not have lost stuff.

  • Error while updating to iOS 8

    Hi guys
    so today I tried to update my iPhone 5S to iOS8 (currently on 7.1.2) and after "contacting iphone update server forever" it gave me an "Unknown error code (-23)"
    I read somewhere that it was some sort of security issue so I turned off the anti-virus but it still persist. It wouldn't work even when I try to update it from the "software update" option on the phone
    so I read somewhere that I could manually download the .ipsw for iOS 8 and update it with iTunes
    any ideas?

  • I got an error while updating itunes, it won't run apple mobile device and gives a runtime error, can anyone help ?

    I have Windows Vista Premium (64) installed on my pc, never had this kind of problem before. I mostly use this computer only for itunes...
    I tried to re-install itunes without success, now it gives a runtime error visual c++ runtime library , says to re-install itunes with error 7 (windows error 1114)
    Please help me! thanks !

    I had the same problem. Use the uninstall feature to delete all of the Apple related programs that came with the recent download. There should be 3. Check the dates they were installed to be sure.
    DO NOT DELETE any folders manually unless you want to lose playlists, etc.
    Reboot your computer then reinstall. It worked like a charm for me!
