Did a factory reset on my phone and the screen is now stuck with apple symbol

I have done a master reset/restore facoty settings on my iphone and am now stuck on a screen with the apple icon

I had that same thing happen to me when I was updating my iPhone to iOS 5! What I did was I just kept resetting and resetting and holding down the home and power buttons until 3 in the morning. (ok, maybe it was only midnight but it sure FELT like 3 AM!) Anyway, I would just keep at it until it decides it wants to cooperate. Mine eventually did.

While updating ipod touch 4 i got an error message now stuck with apple symbol and empty bar. can i restart ipod?

while updating ipod touch 4 i got an error message now stuck with apple symbol and empty bar. can i restart ipod?

- What was the error message?
- Try closing iTunes and then disconnect the iPod from the computer. Then reconnect the iPod. If the iPod shows in iTunes then you can try again. However, You should try to resolve the error message first.
- If iTunes does not see the iPod try reetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- I recommend that you come back with the what the error message said and the condition of the iPod and if it is visible in iTunes.

Iphone stuck with apple symbol and wont start up

i updated my iphone and when it finished and went to reboot it just stays stuck on the apple symbol it constantly reboots and will never connect to my laptop i dont know what to do if anyone can help please do

Hi,
Luca224 & Ingo2711. Thanks for bringing this topic. on 29th Nov. I faced the same problem on my iPhone 3GS 32GB Firmware 3.1.2, iPhone stuck with apple symbol and wont start up. I have tried with 10 Seconds Sleep/wake-up button + home button to reset. But didn't work. Did google about an hour with many blogs. Finally I made a call to 3 iPhone care and spent 30 minutes and explained whatever I have done; iPhone customer care asked me to go to nearby iPhone service center in Sydney. BUT BY LUCK CLICKED ON iTUNE AND GOT THE OPTION FOR ONLINE FORUM FOR APPLE iPHONE. Many many thanks to Ingo2711 who has given the solution link and also thanks to Luca224 , who raised the issue. I feel, this is a common problem with iPhones those who using iPhone 3GS 3.1.2...... but try the link http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 and thanks to Luca224 & Ingo2711. PLEASE FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTION CAREFULY:
1. Verify you have iTunes 7.5 or later. Apple recommends using the latest version of iTunes.
2. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone or iPod touch, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
3. Power off the device (Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the the iPhone or iPod touch to turn off. _+(in my case - red slider didn't appear, but i pressed the Sleep/Wake button until the iPhone went off, finally it was just off... i was frustrated... tried 3 times with more patience )+_
4. Press and hold the Home button while reconnecting the USB cable to iPhone. When you reconnect the USB to iPhone, the device should then power on. +_( Do exactly as it says)_+
Note: If you see the message "Charging... Please Wait" or you see the screen pictured below, let the device charge for at least 10 minutes to ensure the battery has some charge and then start with step 2 again. +_(True ... for me it happened 3 times)_+
5. Continue holding the Home button while iPhone starts up. While starting up, you will see the Apple logo. +_( I was nearly frustrated at my 3rd attempet; my thumb was hurting as I was holding the home button for few minutes..... but finally it worked yahooooooooooooooooo...... suddenly changed my decision.... about going to 3/Apple service center)_+
6. When you see "Connect to iTunes" on the screen, you can release the Home button and iTunes will display the recovery mode message:
If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, then disconnect the USB cable from iPhone and repeat steps 3-6.
Because you must restore iPhone or iPod touch, iTunes will not recover data from the device, but if it was previously synced on the same computer and the same user account, it should restore a backup (if available). See document HT1414, "Updating and Restoring iPhone Software."
If you are still unable to restore the iPhone using this method, check Apple support for further troubleshooting and/or service options.
Note: If you sync both an iPhone and an iPod touch to the same computer, make sure you select the correct backup to restore your settings from (don't select an iPhone backup if you have an iPod touch and don't select an iPod touch backup if you have an iPhone).
**** ( BACKUP FROM YOUR iTUNES : MAC/PC; AS I GOT MY 95% DATA FROM THERE.... GOOD LUCK)******* IF IT WORKS PLEASE POST YOUR EXPERIENCE....*
THANKS

DId a factory resent on my iPhone and it now won't restore itself from the apple logo even when I hold down the "on" button and the "home" button together

Next time, remember to first turn iMessage & FaceTime off, delete the iCloud account, then restore/reset the phone. To fix, if you setup a support profile with Apple, you can login to your support profile & remove the phone. If not, change your Apple ID password.

Force the phone into recovery mode & restore it:
Turn your phone off. Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.

4s ios 7 won't restore and the screen flickers now

I updated iTunes, then backed up my iPhone before installing ios 7. When it got done updating, it goes to the "Set up your iPhone" screen and gives you the choice to set up as new phone, restore backup from iCloud or restore backup from iTunes. When you select restore from iTunes it says connect to iTunes and then says connected to iTunes when it's plugged into the computer but it doesn't do anything. When you select restore backup from iTunes, it goes through the process like it is restoring but everytime it finishes, it goes back to the "Set up your iPhone" screen. In addition, the very bottom of the screen now flickers continuously. There were no issues with the phone before updating today.

After messing with it for hours, it will let me set up the iPhone as a new phone and the phone works but obviously i have lost all data, contacts, etc. It will also let me restore to a backup that is a year old and it will work but I lost all data since then. It will not let me restore to today's backup prior to downloading the update though. Any help would be appreciated

Hi. The two user tips both describe a sequence of steps that should get your library from the point where it threatens to wipe data from your device to where it is syncing normally, while recovering as much information as possible. It may still be necessary to wipe and reload the device but this should only take place once all the data that can be recovered has been recovered.
Doing step 1 of 8 and then complaining things aren't the way you want them to be yet strikes me as premature...
Since you appear to have all your media content, and we are discussing an iPod classic, not an iOS device, the main worries are already taken care of. What's left is ratings, playcounts, playlist membership and checked status. Since your device holds only part of your library at best you could only recover the missing data for the content that is on the device using third party tools.
Recreating the previous checked/unchecked status of every track in your library from where you are now may not be that easy. Syncing with selected playlists has many advantages, one of which would have been that you would have a named playlist that could have been retrieved by 3rd party software if you had used this method.
You haven't explained what caused your problem in the first place, but if you have a Previous iTunes Libraries folder holding old copies of your iTunes database (generated with each iTunes update) then it would be possible to restore the most recent of these and then update the library with any changes in your media folder.
BTW Apple doesn't offer free support for this kind of issue with iTunes.

I backed up my iPhone first then did a factory reset so I could get the iOS 8 update and now that I have it, my phone won't restore

Idk what's happening and I really hope I did not lose EVERYTHING on my phone. After the backup and reset, I updated my phone to iOS 8 and during the updating process on iTunes it said backing up or something like that and then I instantly thought "noo! backing up what? theres nothing on my phone right now" so i think it was backing up my phone after I reset everything up to my computer so during that I THINK I pressed restore iPhone while it was updating to iOS 8 and i did that because it said it was backing up when there was nothing on my iPhone and everything from my phone is on my computer so I tried to restore it during the updating process just to make sure everything went back to my phone. Then the update got corrupted. I don't think it was the stuff I backed up because it was already on the computer and it was the update that wasn't finished so I think it was the update that got corrupted. Now I have iOS 8 and every time I try to restore my phone it says it restored but nothing ever happens, it brings me to the "Hello" screen every time. Then when I get to the set up as new iPhone or restore from iCloud/itunes screen I try to restore it again and back to the "Hello" screen I go. PLEASE HELP ME GUYS PLEASE!

I went back to iOS 7 and my backup file is restoring but when its done nothing is on my phone still and only takes 11-15 minutes to restore the backup instead of taking 25+ minutes like usual so I guess the backup is corrupted. How can I fix this?

Have had several apps recently that wont open. tried reinstalling and even did a factory reset on my phone, htc m8. suggestions?

recently I have had Verizon mobile, facebook, weatherbug, kill shot, and minion rush all start to open and then close on their own. I've uninstalled them all and that didn't work. Took the sd card out since the Verizon reps thought that might be the problem. I ended up doing a factory reset on the phone, htc m8, and that didn't fix any of the issues. Any suggestions?

Another user suggested:
Uninstalling updates for "Android System WebView".
Here are the step by step instructions:
1) Get to the "App Manager" screen (one way: settings / App Manager)
2) Swipe over to the "ALL" screen to see "All Apps Installed"
3) Scroll down until you find "Android System WebView" (or use magnifying glass to
search for "webview") and press it
4) Press "Uninstall Updates" button and enjoy!

Factory resetting an iPhone 4 and keeping everything on my iPhone 5s (Apple ID)

Hello!
I have two iPhone's - a 4 and a 5s. They are both attached to my Apple ID, but I want to factory reset and delete everything off of the 4. However, I'm scared that I'll delete everything that is connected to both iPhones (pictures, etc.) if I go to Settings>iCloud>Delete Account on the 4.
Can someone help me delete and reset the iPhone 4 without deleting everything connected to my iPhone 5s? I hope this all makes sense.
Thank you!!

Hello, gibbler13.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand that you want to remove all of the data from your iPhone 4 but are concerned it will affect your iPhone 5s. To erase all of your data off of your iPhone 4 only, follow the steps in the first article below that covers Erase All Content and Settings. This will not alter any data on your iPhone 5s. However, it is a good idea to create a backup of your data as a precaution.
iOS: Understanding 'Erase All Content and Settings'
Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iCloud or iTunes
