  • What should I do when my iPhone is in recovery mode, I'm trying to restore, and it's stuck at the "Waiting For iPhone" stage??

    I dropped my iPhone on the ground, and as I went to pick it up, I started to swear under my breath as I realized my iPhone was in recovery mode. I'm like "how would an iPhone be this sensitive -_-," and so as my iPhone's docked unto my laptop, and with relentless attempts to restore my iPhone, I always find iTunes stuck at the "Waiting For iPhone" stage and I honestly have no clue what to do at this point. What should I do to bypass this or fix this problem? Or do I just wait? -_-

    Nothing except that when I turn it on, there's a USB cable and an iTunes logo above it, indicating that it's in recovery mode.

    Water damage is really a tough hurdle to get over if the steps you have already tried do not work.
    The next step would be to tranfer your Logic Board to a working 3GS to see if it works.
    If the Logic Board is good or you just want to try one more thing, try cleaning the Dock Port very well with Isopropyll Alcohol. If still problem, at most replace the Dock Port Assembly.
    Throwing good money after a bad iPhone is not a good idea.

  • I am trying to restore my iphone 4 and when it gets to the, waiting for iphone, stage he phone does not respond and it comes up with error 4005. does anyone know how to resolve this issue. thanks

    Hello there, Shaz18663.
    The following Knowledge Base article provides a solution for the error you have mentioned:
    Resolve specific iTunes update and restore errors
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
    Particularly:
    Check USB connections
    If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
    Common errors: 13, 14, 1600-1629, 1643-1650, 2000-2009, 4000, 4005, 4013, 4014, 4016, “invalid response”, and being prompted to restore again after a restore completes.
    To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
    Use another USB cable.
    Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
    Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
    Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.
    If you see your error after changing your USB connections, continue to the next section to troubleshoot your hardware.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • Was stuck on "Waiting For iPhone." Now it won't respond to the charge chord

    My phone has been giving me a lot of trouble today and I've been looking all over for tips and tricks, but so far, nothing has helped.
    It's an iPhone 4. One of my apps was being glitchy after a recent update, so I decided to delete it and reinstall it. When that didn't solve the issue, I decided to shut my phone off and turn it on again to see if it made a difference. Since then, it's been stuck in a loop. At first, it was stuck on the Apple logo. I managed to get it into recovery mode and connected it to iTunes, but only got as far as the "Waiting For iPhone" message.
    After several attempts to get it to recover, it no longer responds to the charge chord. Pressing and holding the top and home buttons only gives me the Connect To iTunes image and when I reconnect it to my computer, ... nothing.
    What should I do? Is my phone lost for good? If I take it to the Apple Store in another city, is there anything they can do, or am I out of luck because I'm out of warranty?

    The message that you're getting about the USB port is Windows rather than the Shuffle, ignore this as it will all work anyway.
    How were you formatting the iPod shuffle? Using Windows? If this is the case I'd assume that was probably a bad choice that Windows asked you to make.
    In any case I would download the latest iPod updater from http://www.apple.com/uk/ipod/download/ - open this and then plug your iPod into your computer - update the firmware and then everything hopefully should be sorted

  • My Iphone 3GS is stuck on 'waiting for iPhone' In restoration?

    Hello:)
    My iPhone 3GS (32mb) turned itself off the other month and on it appeared an itunes icon with a USB plug underneath it, i cannot turn my phone off ect.
    Ive plugged my iPhone into the latest iTunes patch and it had successfully restored when i clicked the restore button, although once this had finished it came back to the summary screen and the only button i could press was the restore button again, so i have and then it went through all the apple approving and other things. But now it is just saying on the laptop screen 'waiting for iPhone' and the actual iPhone has the apple logo on it and a long bar underneath that is empty. It was like this for half an hour, no change or anything, so i unplugged the iPhone and pressed the lock and home buton ( to turn it off ) and then redid the iTunes procedure, it went straight to the apple verfication thingy then moved on to the 'waiting for iPhone' again and NOW its got the same stupid empty bar and apple logo please can someone help??? I tried contacting chat online on apple and it said i had to dial a number, but asking the community for free is much more useful than a crackly phone call that'll probably cost me a fiver hahaha thanks guys!
    ps; No error reports

    Did you ever got this resolve?  I have your same problem phone type and all.

  • How long does it take to download ios 7 over-the-air for iphone 5?

    How long does it take to download ios 7 over-the-air for iphone 5?

    It totally depends. The servers are getting slammed. Bunch of people trying to download at the same time.
    Anecdotally, it took me about 20 minutes.
    Give it time, keep trying, should eventually work.
    Ways you can maybe speed it up - use iTunes, get off wifi and do a hard connection via ethernet.

    If Apple has not received your phone, obviously it can't even be evaluated for warranty purposes. Have you tried calling AppleCare to verify whether they have received the phone or not?

  • INSTALLING LION for the first time how long does it take. The screen is white, nothing is happening?

    Installing Lion on a new imac. How long does it take. The screen it white for awhile?

    After downloading it, which can be like watching grass grow, it should take about 20-30 minutes. However, if it's a new computer, why would you installing it?

    That does happen.  It depends on how hard the server is being hit, as well as the connection speed of your system.  If you are on a windows system, you will want to disable any antivirus or firewall software during the download.
