Can't turn my phone on after iOS 7.1.1 update please help

I've updated my phone to iOS 7.1.1 and now it's telling me to connect to iTunes with a USB. I no longer have a computer... How can I work around this so my phone will turn back on?

If it was showing the connect to iTunes screen it is in recovery mode and must be connect to a computer with iTunes.  Recovery mode erases all content and settings so there is nothing wrong with using another computer.  If you have a backup in iCloud use that to restore, or download the apps and songs you had on it.

    Okay lets check few things.  Tell me what you can see that is similar to mine.  I'll be travelling today so I have soem time now and later tonight ...  just so you don't thing I've "gone awol".
    1.  In iTunes, Preferences > Device Preferences if you want manual then you should set the iPhone from syncing automatically
    2.  Also check you have music in your iTunes Library
    3.  Then on your device tab =Music you select Sync Music, slect your playlists annd then select apply in the lower right corner.
    Let me know

  • Iphone 3GS keeps restarting after ios 4.3.2 update! Help please.`

    So I recently updated my uncles iPhone 3GS from a very old version 3 something to the latest. It randomly restarts within about 5 minutes of using the phone. You could be in a call and it would just shut down. Any help on resolving this issue please?

    Sorry unit was upgraded to iOS 4.3.3. Unit is now out of warranty by 23 days. I would like to think out of courtesy that Apple would replace my iPhone for the inconvenience caused by the upgrade as the phone was working perfect prior to the upgrade.
    Please help Apple!!!

  • IPhone 5: Can't turn on location services after ios 7 upgrade.

    When I upgraded to the current ios, location services got turned off.  Now there is a password there, and I'd never had one before.  I've been trying unsuccessfully for 3 weeks with every number combination that I can think of  to get into my restrictions tab and turn on location services. 
    Any Suggestions?.

    Note: If you lose or forget a restriction passcode, you will need to perform a factory restore to remove it.

  • Can not open videos on iPad after iOS 8.0.2 update

    I've updated my iPad's software to iOS 8.0.2 from iOS 8 and suddenly I can not watch any video from Youtube or any website. This is a big issue for me and couldn't find any solution. When I open the Youtube app, videos do not load and an error occurs. Then I tried to watch something on a website and realized that the problem is not only for Youtube but any kind of web based platforms. By the way, this not because of wifi connection. It is connected with a strong signal. Everything works fine except watching something.
    Can I convert my software to previous version through iTunes or is there any other way to fix this? I hope the only way to get rid of this problem is not waiting for the next software version to be released.
    Thanks

    1.Double-click the Home button.
    2. Swipe the app's preview up to close it.
    3. Preview will fly off the screen.

  • IPhone says searching for service after ios 7.1.1 update! HELP!

    I updated my iPhone 5c to the iOS 7.1.1 last night and didn't think I would have any problems. I went to bed and woke up this morning with my phone in the top left corner saying "Searching..." and the the wifi symbol.
    I went to check my setting to see if my data was off, but when I went into the settings app and clicked the tab labed "Celluar" the app crashed and took me back to the home screen. It does this everytime I try and go into that tab! So, I have no idea what it going on with my phone! I can't make calls, send texts through my phone number (I can still send iMessages when connected to wifi), the screen glitches and moves when I go into apps, the battery life is now terrible and drains really fast. Everything about my phone was perfectly fine until I updated it to the iOS 7.1.1, so I believe something must have went wrong when it was updating.
    Overall these are my main problems:
    -iPhone is "Searching" for phone service (which means I have no service so no calls or texts can be sent or recieved)
    -Cellular tab in settings crashes
    -Battery drains over 2x faster than normal
    -Screen seems to glitch or move when I open apps

    Hi SamSam1103,
    If you are having multiple issues with your iPhone after a recent update, your best course of action may be to back up your content to iTunes, restore the phone to factory settings, then test to see if the issues persist in its default config before bringing back your content from the backup. You may find the following articles helpful:

    s anyone else experiencing trouble turning thier phone on after trying to update to the ios 6.0.1? I cannot access my phone at all...

    Sounds like their was some corruption that occured during the update. Have you tried connecting it to iTunes in recovery mode and restoring it from backup (or to factory settings if from a backup fails)?  Use the instructions in this article to walk you through placing your device in recovery mode.
    iOS: Unable to update or restore
    Otherwise, try DFU mode.

  • While downloading the latest IOS update to my iPhone 4, my phone went into a frozen state with the update 2/3's complete. It's remained like this for the past 12 hours. I can't turn the phone off, and I can't connect it to iTunes. Anyone know what to do?

    If the place of purchase does not have a 'Lemon' policy (three replacements = refund or complete exchange), sadly you are out of luck.
    And Apple themselves do not have any power over what policy a reseller uses. You can call Apple Care and have them replace it, but the odds are you would probably get a standard replacement again like has previously happened. I'm pretty sure Apple holds their own sort of 'Lemon' polocy where if it's been replaced three times through them they'll swap it out for a brand new phone. Not 100% sure though, best bet is too call them again.
    And it ***** getting a response like that from their support personel, but hey, they can't all be that bad can they? I'm sure if you plead your case they'll try and help out. I've dealt with them in the past and had one or two people that rubbed me the wrong way, but most of them have been a great help and kept me a happy customer, haha.

  • HT204053 i lost my iphone and reset it all through find my iphone and after locating it and getting it back i can not turn the phone back on how can i fix this

    i lost my iphone and reset it all through find my iphone and after locating it and getting it back i can not turn the phone back on how can i fix this

    Unless you had enabled Find My iPhone on it before it was lost then there isn't any way to locate it (it can only be turned on directly on the phone, it can't be done remotely). If you did enable it then you could try locating it either via http://icloud.com on a computer or Find My iPhone on another device - but that will only work if it's connected to a network and the device hasn't already been wiped and/or Find My iPhone disabled on it.
    If you think that it was stolen then you should report it to the police. You should also change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc.

  • IPhone 6 screen freezes and can't find wifi after iOS 8.0.2 update

    iPhone 6 screen freezes and can't find wifi after iOS 8.0.2 update. Have to do a hard reboot. I am Extremely disappointed and lost ALL trust in Apples Quality Assurance. From now on I'll wait a week before I update.

    Hey there Shortos,
    It sounds like your phone touchscreen is not consistently working for you after updating to iOS 8. I can see how that would be pretty frustrating. It sounds to me like this could be a software issue or an issue with the screen itself. I would start with the troubleshooting in the following article to help troubleshoot the screen itself:
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Troubleshooting touchscreen response
    Restart your device
    Hold the On/Off button until "slide to power off" appears. Slide to power off your device. When it is off, press the On/Off button to turn it back on.
    If you can't restart your device, reset it by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for a least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    Clean the screen with a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth.
    Avoid using the device while wearing gloves, with wet hands, or immediately after applying hand lotion.
    If you have a protective case, or if you are using a plastic sheet or film on the display, try removing them and testing the device without it.
    If that does not resolve the issue, I would next quit all the running apps on the device:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    When you have done that restart the device and test the issue again:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

  • After iOS 7.0.2 update: Freeze on lock screen, blackout & unresponsive for 5 min then the phone restarts itself

    Happened after iOS 7.0.2 update a few times (2x this morning): Freeze on lock screen, "blackout:" unresponsive to any buttons pressing, after 3-5 minutes the phone restarts itself and works again... (1) May I ask what can I do? I am trying to reset it and recovering the data from backup. (2) Can a virus cause this problem?

    To rule out a software issue, set it up as new device without using the latest backup.

    If it does not charge normally after that, you'll have to get it serviced, the problem might be hardware related.

  • Hi guys how can i turn on the WIFI on IOS 6 on a 4S ?

    hi guys how can i turn on the WIFI on IOS 6 on a 4S

    You'd do that if you wanted to add in all your contacts from facebook - it makes it useful to find out who's using other apps - 4 square - whatsapp, facetime etc.   I had many facebook contacts that I don't call, however if they are using other things, I might be talking to them.  So yeah, I decided to bring in all my facebook contacts.  It has created a mess that I'm trying to clean up though.  The mess is that I have a lot of duplicate contacts ( a facebook contact of Mary Smith and a contact on my phone of Aunt Mary).  I know that when I go and edit one of the 2, there is an option to link the 2, which will then merge the data (adds email info, birthday, facebook contact info, twitter etc) but it doesn't delete one of the contacts.  It should give an option to delete one of the merged contacts.. but it doesn't.  I'm not sure how to fix this.  I've been asking the boards here, but no solution has been given.
    There has to be a way to do this (easily) that is

    Reset your password via iforgot.apple.com
    If the iPhone is asking for an AppleID you do not recognize, the iPhone

    can remove it. There is no workaround for Activation Lock.
