i was able to restore it but now all it shows is to plug into itunes but when i plug it into my computer it doesnt show up? and it doesnt come up under my computer as a hard drive either.

Try again to connect in recovery mode, explained in this article:
iOS: Unable to update or restore
If still not recognized in iTunes, try the tips mentioned in this article:

    Yes, you need iTunes installed in order to restore your phone. If not installed on your computer, you need to download/install it.

    Did you choose the wrong back up? There should be a drop box when you go to "Restore from Back up" in iTunes and your iPhone is plugged in, on the Summary page. Choose the correct back up. If you can't find one, and you still have your device, back up your iPhone 4 again and then choose that back up. Or check for an old iCloud back up if you have one.

  • My ipod is telling me to plug it into itunes but when i did that it said i needed to type in my passcode on my ipod to do anything, but i cant go to any screen other then the one it is showing me

    My ipod(ipod touch 3rd generation) is telling me to plug it into itunes but when i did that my computer said i needed to type my passcode into my ipod before i could do anything, but i cant go to any screen other then the one it is showing me (the one saying to plug it into itunes), i tried turning it off and then back on and it didnt do anything! also i just downloaded itunes to this computer so it doesn't have any music or anything on it that is on my ipod so i cant just wipe out my ipod. please help me! i use my ipod for everything!!!

    it is telling me to plug it into iTunes and when I dont iTunes tells me to put in my passcode
    That makes no sense. Are you plugging it into iTunes or not?
    ...phone still tells my to connect it to iTunes and even if I knew my passcode I still couldn't type it in.
    If you even knew your passcode why couldn't you type it in?
    Please try again: tell us the problem, what you try, and what the result is.

  • I tryed to update my iphone, now its saying i have to connect with itunes but when i plug it into a computer the only option is to restore it, i would lose all my things please help quick.

    so recently i wanted to load my friends music onto my phone because my laptop broke and i had no other way to get my music. i loged out of my itunes so the music could load without any problems. i tryed to so an update on the softwear today and my phone says i need to conncect to itunes, but when i try the only option is to restore it! that would mean all my things on my phone GONE. please help i cant live without a phone for long but i dont want to have to restore it. pleaseee please tell me somone can help.

    The problem is your friend's music does not belong to you.  It is owned by your friend.
    I'm afraid you cannot do what you are trying to do.  Restoring the iPhone is what you would have to do.
    In the future, put your music on the computer and transfer it to the iPhone, not the other way.

  • HT201263 iphone only shows logo for 13 seconds when connected to pc thats all it does however i connected to wall socket it goes up to connect to itunes but when i unplug it then it switches off

    iphone only shows logo for 13 seconds when connected to pc thats all it does however i connected to wall socket, it goes up to connect to itunes but when i unplug it then it switches off.
    this is coincidently after an ios update for iphone which i did just approx two days earlier which was suppused to fix battery issues?
    also battery shows 100 percent full but as i explained if disconected from socket it switches off altogether.

    Hopefully and most likely faulty battery. If you have Warranty or AppleCare, make Genius reservation and take to Apple for resolution.

    Hi tdunkan,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds as though your iPhone may need to be restored after the update. The first article below will walk you through restoring in a manor very similar to what you are seeing on your iPhone display.
    If you can't update or restore your iOS device
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    Once the iPhone has been restored and activated, you will have the choice to set up as new, restore from iTunes backup, or restore from iCloud backup. If you information is backed up on either iTunes or iCloud, the following article will discuss how to restore from those backups.

    BOB we need you urgently
    Perhaps Bob will see this thread, he is the professor in these cases.
    You do not use a WEP password but wpa/wpa2 on router and equipment.
    All equipment connects to WiFi, but for your iPad.
    Even with all other equipment WiFi off, you cannot connect your iPad.
    Your iPad connects to other WiFi nets correctly.
    All resets etc done on iPad and Router.
    Still I am not sure it is your router for sure, frustrating...
    I want to test 2 other things:
    1. in your iPad, set everything OFF in Settings/Cellular, turn off/then/on your WiFi, and see whether it will still not connect...
    2. If that does not do it: disconnect the router as well as the modem from the power, for 15 seconds, then reconnect the modem, let it fully start, then reconnect the routet let it fully start, turn of your WiFi in iPad, then on, and see whether it will connect.

  • HT201209 I bought a movie with the digital copy and it gives me option to redeem it with iTunes, but when I type in the redeem code it shows a message saying: you must insert your digital copy dvd in the computer in order to redeem this code" . The dvd is

    I bought a movie with the digital copy and it gives me option to redeem it with iTunes, but when I type in the redeem code it shows a message saying: " you must insert your digital copy dvd in this computer in order to redeem this code" . The dvd is in. WTH? This is especially with FOX movies, I never have trouble with Universal Picture movies.

    Thanks for your reply, but you might have misunderstood it a bit. I'm NOT trying to buy a movie. ****, I'm not even in the actual Apple Store, when this happens I'm in the library not the Store part of iTunes.
    To clarify - I have purchased a physical copy of a movie which came with another physical copy which contains the digital copy. The digital copy is on the DVD, all I need is just to transfer this file to my iPod Touch, for example, I'm not trying to download it from the store or repurchase it and it's not any gift code that I've received, the digital copy is on the disc. This is the first time ever that I've purchased something on a disc and I'm not allowed to access it because the disc hasn't been purchased within my country.
    So again - I'm not attempting any purchase or download any purchased digital copy - it's on a DVD I own physically so... why is even the region of my Store relevant, the code I enter is (as I assume) just supposed to check if it's a legal genuine copy (which it is, as I've said - there are 6 discs in the pack: 3 movies on 3 Blu-rays and 3 DVD containing these digital copies of them). If I own it, I think that's proof enough that I have the right to use it. I just don't get it. I fully agree with you and understand your point if there was any purchase going on here, but it's not, it's just - I put a disc into my computer and I can't access it

  • I purchased an ablum thru itunes on my phone and it says i purchased the songs on itunes but when i go on my music it says i have to repurchase all the songs how can i get the songs with out havin to pay again

    Whether you can redownload music depends upon what country that you in. If you are using your computer's iTunes then does music show in the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page (on your phone you might be able to redownload media via the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app) ? If music shows there, but not that album, then check to see if it's hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
    If you aren't in a country when you can redownload music and it's still on your phone then you should be able to copy it over from the phone via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases.
