Can't restore iphone 4s after ios7 update, pc keeps eating hd memory, but not restoring?!

I have an iphone 4s and just updated to ios7. However after the update, when I tried to restore my old settings from the backup (which is on my pc), the iphone started eating hd memory until I was left with 28kilobytes of free space. Naturally, I got the low disk space error and the process stopped. Now I can't restore my settings on the updated iphone and I have no memory left on C:\
Please help!

Iphone 5 locked into an Apple screen this morning.
Followed like 5 different suggestions from this forum, regarding connecting to Itunes and restoring.
All attempts on Windows and MAC, Itunes is up to date.
Itunes extracts the software, contacts apple for verification, an then " Notification of error 40".
I have tried this like 15 times now, and nothing is working.
Any real help, beside following an article that I probably already attempted would be appreciated.
thank you
Greg

  • HT5538 i cant get facetime and imessage to work on my iphone 5 after ios7 update

    after my ios7 update on my iphone 5, i cannot facetime or imessage. it just says waiting for activation. help...it has been like this for a week now

    Try a Restart. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
     Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple. 
    Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

    Please post in the developers forum. iOS 5 is unreleased Beta software and is not to be discussed here.

  • Music buttons not working in lock screen on my iPhone 4 after iOS7 update.

    After I updated my iPhone 4 to iOS7, the music buttons like PLAY, REWIND and FORWARD are not working in the locked screen as well as on swipe up menu. Any resolution please?

    hi there
    i had a problem with my wifes iphone 4s, today morning while travelling to work i changed a setting on repeat option and changed it to repeat artist, it was fine until when i finish my work and on my way back i found songs are not playing anymore, lots of stop signs next to my song list, play/pause button not working, album arkwork keep moving from one to another on its own, so after i reach home i try to do some research on Apple support communities, try to soft reset my phone closing all the apps on background didnt work, also note that control centre music player was not working as well. none of the solutions worked. after trying for two hours i found out that the trouble is in repeat options , so i changed it from repeat artist to repeat off. and the music start playing as usual, but i still have those stop buttons next to the songs i tried to play earlier. At least it fixed temporarily. please also note that in the meantime i tried to sync my phone with the pc and suddenly its start syncing all the songs again assuming there were no songs on my iphone.  so guys i think soft reset might not help all the time but try to remember what settings you changed recently and change it back to the original option, not sure ,but it might help.

    Is there a sim in the iPhone?
    Has the iPhone been jailbroken or modified to work with other
    than the original wireless provider?
    If you can get that far, what does it say when you look at
    Settings=>General=>About=>Carrier?

  • HT4623 Why can't I access itunes after ios7 update?

    I can't access itunes after updating to ios7 on an iphone 4s?

    This is could be due to the cookie settings update that was made with iOS7.
    Try the following:
    1) Kill the iTunes App (if running in background)
    2) Goto Settings/Safari/Block Cookies
    3) Select 'Never' or 'From Third Parties and advertisers'
    4) Launch iTunes App again
    See if that addresses the issue.

  • Email not pushing to iPhone 5 after iOS7 update

    After updating to iOS7 on a 16GB iPhone 5 my @mac.com/@me.com/@icloud.com email is no longer pushing to my device.  I still have my icloud username as @mac.com as it was prior to the iOS7 upgrade. 
    Does anyone else have this issue with emails not pushing?  The phone and settings are set to push.  I have another iPhone 5 that emails push to when the username is @me.com.  Do I need to change the apple ID?

    You aren't alone.  Check this thread here.

  • Iphone 5 not restoring my back up data from itunes? Iphone 5 began freezing and turning off by itself after ios7 updates. How can i recover my data?

    I began having problems with my iphone 5 after I updated to ios7. It began having several issues e.g. freezing, turning on and off by itself and the home button was not responding.
    It is a long story because I had to talk to apple reps etc. to make a long story short; my iphone is now in recovery mode and only works when it is set as a new iphone.
    Now my back up data on itunes will not back up into my iphone 5 and my iphone is still in recovery mode.
    How can I restore my itunes back up data into my iphone 5?
    How can I get my phone out of recovery mode?
    How can I recover my potentially lost data, contacts, sms, etc.,  due to backing up my iphone and trying to fix the issues with apple reps?

  • HT201263 After Ios7 update it asked me to restore iphone . But restore is not working

    After IOS7 update, Extract software did not recognize device properly . Now iTunes asked me to restore iphone . I tried restoring.
    Its giving me an error saying Phone not recognized [Error code : 2000] http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/updaterestore/?error=20000
    Kindly help pls ..

    Hey kartbeat2001,
    Thanks for the question. The following article provides relevant information in regards to Error 2000:
    iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
    Error 2000-2009 (2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, and so on)
    If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you're using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that doesn't resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software. If the errors persist on another computer and known-good USB cable, the device may need service.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.
