After installing ios 5 my iphone is stuck in reboot with a spinning circle

after installing ios 5 on my iphone 3gs last night it won't reboot. It shows the apple logo then just shows a white ring in the middle and it won't move like it normally does. I have put it in recovery mode, but still does the same thing. I have synced it with my mac but it says that itunes can't sync to it.

Greetings -
I have the same problem. It began without notice. My phone remains in a constant reboot - unless - it is plugged into the dock or charger. I have restored the phone 3 times on itunes - I have removed all personal data ( music, photos, etc.). Is there something else I can try?
AAA.

  • HT4623 I can't activate Location Services after installing ios& on Iphone 5.... any ideas?

    I can't activate Location Services after installing ios& on Iphone 5.... any ideas?

    I had the same issue with one of the three iPhones I updated on Wednesday.  There are many processes that are working for people including:
    - Resetting the device several times
    - Toggling the "Dont' Allow Changes" setting under "Restrictions --> Location Services"
    - Disabling Restrictions altogether.
    - Restoring from backup
    I was able to restore location services by selecting "Reset" and choosing "Erase All Content and Settings" to set the phone up as new.  When the phone resets and goes through the setup process, I was given the option to turn on location services.  I then restored from backup and was good to go.
    Some people have been able to resolve the issue by resetting but only using "Reset All Settings" without having to erase all content, but that did not work for me.  It took a while to get everything back to normal, but it is good to know that there was a somewhat simple solution.

  • Why after installing iOS 7 my iPad started to reboot by itself, my battery lost autonomy and the iPad got slowwwwwwer?

    Why after installing iOS 7 my iPad started to reboot by itself, my battery lost autonomy and the iPad got slowwwwwwer?

    For proper reporting of the battery’s state of charge, be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).

  • Photos & Videos clarity reduced after installing iOS 5.1 to iPad2?

    Has anyone noticed that after installing iOS 5.1 and updating your iPad2 with it the clarity in your photos and videos has gone bad?
    Is it due to that iOS 5.1 is primarily optimized for the new iPad's Retina display which is probably creating mess for display clarity of iPad2?
    I haven't seen the new iPad display yet so no chance of comparing the two and then feeling this way. Pls suggest if there is anything which a user need to do to get this fixed or if Apple would like to look into this and fix it by rolling out quick new iOS update.
    Thank you!

    No such problem with my iPad 2 running 5.1.

    You may of had a corrupted install. Connect to iTunes backup then restore. Or update the apps on itunes then sync to the iPhone

    Hello Rach Ryan
    First I would try closing the app from multitasking and then launching it again. To do that, double tap the Home button and then swipe up on the app to close it completely. If that does not work, then I would restart your iPhone.
    iOS: Force an app to close

    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset

  • After installing IOS 6 on my iphone 4, why is my camera taking purple pictures?

    Immediately after installing IOS 6 on my iphone 4 on 9/22/12, when I attempt to use any of my phone apps, everything is colored in purple tint (see attached image). This includes taking video as well. If I flip the camera to the self facing camera, the purple goes away. This only happens on the front facing camera. I've tried googling this issue and cannot find anyone else complaining about this. Any ideas???

    So, now I'm starting to feel like I'm the one and only lucky SOB to have this purple issue. For anyone who reads this, some more detail. Since posting this thread, I did a full reset from my iphone and that did not resolve the issue. Then, last night I did a full system restore from itunes which took about 4 hours and that didn't solve it either.
    After all this, I started thinking that perhaps there's something wrong with the lens hardware but yesterday for approx 3 full seconds, the camera was normal then there was a stutter and it went purple again. Sounds like a software issue, so I'm really baffled why a system restore wouldn't cure this. Ugh!

  • Usually i back my IPhone with ICloud, after installing IOS 5 it asked me to restore from I Tunes what i have to do?

    usually i back my IPhone with ICloud, after installing IOS 5 it asked me to restore from ITunes what i have to do to restore all my contact, applications and others?

    If your iPhone does not search for a wi-fi connection before you are asked whether you want to set it up as new phone or restore a backup from iTunes, then I guess you have the same issue as highlighted in this thread:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/19638850?ac_cid=tw123456#19638850
    iCloud back ups can only be accessed via wi-fi that's why you are not granted this option, I have the exact same issue.

  • After installing ios 5.1 on my iphone 4s, some apps are being closed automatically after a few seconds. I've tried a restart and a total reset. nothing seems to work. Any solutions?

    The problem Apps may need to be updated. Or maybe your iTunes account needs to just update itself on your iPhone. To do this, install a free App from the App Store on your iPhone. Tap App Store app on iPhone, select and install a free App. When that is done try the problem Apps to see if they work OK again.

  • Iphone 4 won't open after installing ios 7.1

    Please help. My iphone 4 won't open after installing ios 7.1.. I already connected it to my pc but still didn't open. I waited for a long time, press the on/off, home buttons but still didn't work. Thanks Jah bless all..

    Honsetly I do not know if they will charge you, however apple products usually have a one year warranty, such as your charging cable, might. But if you tried to use another charging cable then you will want to make an appointment with Apple. good luck

  • IPhone 4 runs without SIM card after installing iOS 7/7.1.1

    After installing iOS 7 and all the latest update by using iTunes on my iPhone 4 I now have the problem that when starting the phone without a phone card I get the information that the SIM card is blocked and that you have to slide to unlock, the same information you usually receive when such a card is inside. Once unlocked the code screen appears asking for the PIN. The iPhone runs after having entered the PIN and you can open and work with all the apps which don't need an access to the internet like Calendar, Notes, Settings etc.. What has gone wrong? Can anybody help me please.

    The SIM is only actually required during activation. And if you want a connection to a cellular carrier, of course. Once activated, the SIM can be removed and the device can be used as if it were an iPod Touch. This has always been this way.
    I'm not entirely clear on what you think is wrong.

  • Can not sync with computer after installing IOS 8 on iPhone 5s

    I cannot sync with my computer after installing IOS 8 on iPhone 5s. In iTunes I get a dialogue box that says that the computer is not authorized (it is) I deauthorize and then authorize and it comes up again that the compeer cannot synch because it is not authorized. ???

    If it's not an authorized Apple charging cord, it may no longer work.  When I updated the iOS on my iPhone 5, it did the same thing; iOS 8 is just better at recognizing non-Apple cords.  There are a couple that are still recognized, but most no longer work.  I'd already seen it happen when I upgraded to an iPad Air -- it will definitely only accept authorized Apple cables -- so I knew what was happening.

  • After installing iOS 6 battery life is awful on iPhone 4S

    Hello All,
    I just want to share a problem I am having with my iphone 4s. After installing iOS 6.0.1 on it, the battery life is very bad, I could probably say unacceptable, after fully charging it, it would not last even 12 hours before the battery runs out and also i have noticed that the battery or back of the phone gets hot, I would say hotter than before I did the upgrade. I am just wondering if anyone could share some thoughts. I hope Apple comes out with a fix to this issue because I have noticed that a lot of people are having this problem.
    Thank you

    Hmmm...Apple doesn't support downgrading. If true you must have jailbroken your phone rather than properly repair the problem.
