Frozen iPhone 5s during iOS 7.1.2 update

Hi,
I'm having a problem updating my iPhone 5s:
iPhone 5s with 7.1.2 installed
Started over the air (wifi) update (plugged)
Everything went smoothly until my iPhone restarted to complete the installation process; now the progress bar is frozen between 1/2 and 2/3 of the way
45 minutes and nothing happening ....
I have read on another thread that people tried rebooting and it seems to work but I'd prefer to wait rather than have to go into recover procedure with a faulty installation.
Anyone with the same problem ? Any solutions
Daniel

I tried sack solution and it worked. I will check the thread you are referring to.
I guess I will find out if that resulted in a faulty installation in the next few days.

My ical won't sync with iPhone 4 after IOS 6.0.1 update

My ical won't sync with iPhone 4 after IOS 6.0.1 update. The "sync calendars" option is no longer available after I installed this update. Any ideas???I have tried a few times to sync, and nothing has changed on my calendars. I have had so many troubles with this update. Grrr...

I tried the same but it did not worked. But, i got a solution. I accessed gmail on my laptop. Went to gmail settings. There is a option to add a device. A iPhone was already listed. I clicked Revoke to remove it. Then i clicked add new device and gave it iPhone name and a new 16-20 character password was geenrated. I used it to configure gmail on my Iphone and it worked beautifully. So glad i have been able to fix this. That password is a one time password to authenticate that device.

HT201398 Why won't podcast app work on iPhone 5 after ios 8.1.3 update?

Why won't podcast app work on iPhone 5 after ios 8.1.3 update?
I've restarted the phone and itunes several times, have uninstalled and reinstalled the app on the phone and itunes separately, and it still just shows 'Installing" under the greyed out app.

I have the same problem with an iPhone 5s. All podcast fail to work on the phone since updating to iOS 8.1.3. What is going on? Is Apple taking this problem serious?

IPhone 3GS froze during iOS 5.1.1 update - how do I get out of recovery mode without having to restore?

So I tried to update my iPhone 3GS to iOS 5.1.1, like iTunes told me to do, and it froze part way through the installation for a couple of hours. I tried to "reset" the iPhone by pressing both the home and power buttons simultaneously, but now iTunes tells me my iPhone is in recovery mode. From my limited knowledge, it seems I need to restore my iPhone, but I don't want to lose anything, like my SMS history.
Is there a way to get out of recovery mode without having to restore?
Thanks!

I came across this post as my iPhone 3Gs had gone into recovery mode on its own accord.   I had hundreds of photos unsaved and was gutted when I saw this post, I felt even worse as it was not the information (gdgmacguy) I wanted to read.
Unfortunately, the above post is simply wrong! A system cannot destroy information in a blink of an eye.   If it were that easy, the forensic teams across the world would have a hard time. A criminal could simply force a phone into recovery to remove all the data. Please!
I managed not only to take the phone out of recovery mode but also, salvaged all the data held on it.
To be fair, I am a little annoyed at Apple for not offering a salvage option on the device for such a situation. And it may be that they will not like me sharing this information, in which case I believe this view to be morally wrong because photos are so important. We all make mistakes, in terms of forgetting to backup from time to time.
What I used was the Redsn0w software, running as an administrator in XP compatibility mode. In the ‘Extras’ section it as a Recovery Fix option. It simply runs some software that takes the device out of recovery mode. I had to run it twice for some reason but the second time (out of desperation) worked a treat. The phone is now exactly as it was before it went into recovery mode. More to the point, it allowed me to backup all the photos and videos that I had failed to do before hand. And let’s face it, photos and videos are usually the most valuable stuff we keep on our phones.
I hope this help anyone in the same situation. I really hope someone from apple reads it and is able to convince the bosses that a recovery option is very important. And to take note that YES it is possible to recover data on a phone stuck in recovery mode. And more than likely it would be easier for apple, compared to other non-apple professionals.
Good luck.

I was updating my iPhone 4 to iOS 7 and while updating there was an error and the only way toturn it back on is restoring it. is that the only way?

I was updating my iPhone 4 to iOS 7 today and before I did, I backed my phone up into iCloud. Then while it was updating an error occured and now itunes is telling me the only way to power up my phone is to restore the whole device. Is it possible to power up my phone without restoring the whole device? Or without loosing everything?

Not if the error says to restore in iTunes. You should have made a backup before the update, so you should be able to restore to that backup. But with the device in recovery mode as it is, there is no way to backup anything at this time. If you did not make a backup before updating then you can only restore to your latest backup, whenever that was. If no backup at all, then you will have to restore the device as new, losing everything.

IPAD2 Booting Problem during IOS 6.1.2 Updating Process

IPAD2 no longer boot during the IOS 6.1.2 updating process. It kept displaying the Apple icon over and over after it attempted to install (the highlighted bar was never able to completed the sequence till the end of the band). Have tried hard start several times with same problem as noted (kept going back and forth with displaying the Apple Icon. Any idea how to fix this problem? The device is a 64GB and had 5GB left when the update problem occured. Thanks

Do you have any success on this problem? Got the same stuck: after updating got a reboot with Apple logo and progress bar. Progress is going up to ~20% and then stuck. Tried to wait for 1 hour with no luck. Tried a force restart (Power + Home until reboot), all going one and one with same result.
****, I didn't even attached my iPad to computer so has no any backup. Quite disappointed

How to update iPhone 4 to iOS 7, How to update iPhone 4 to iOS 7

I want to update my iPhone 4 to iOS 7 or higher. It is currently on 4.2.6/I reset & erased it and then connected it to my Mac so I could update it in iTunes. Then, when I pressed "update to 7.0.3" it told me to update iTunes. I downloaded the recent iTunes and when I pressed install, it said to update my Mac to OX 6.8 or higher. When I looked up how to update my Mac, it said I needed to pay money to buy the Snow Leopard. Do I seriously need to buy something I don't need just to update my phone? Thanks for your help

Iphone froze during iOS update

My iPhone 4s froze up the other day. I was installing the newest iOS update. It starts with the apple logo and then a progress bar starts to build underneath it not long after that starts it switches to a loading wheel that freezes up until it starts the process all over again. I tried both holding the power button and the soft reset which both just start this same process over again. I tried connecting to my MacBook but it says I need to verify on the phone that I want to connect to iTunes, which I can't do because I get nothing on the screen besides what I already described. Any suggestions? Thank You.

Hey jonesjm25,
Thanks for the question. It sounds like something may have been interrupted during the update process. To resolve your issue, let’s try restoring your iPhone in recovery mode:

Iphone freeze during iOS 5.1update

the iphone is completely frozen
with the apple and the bar
not responding anymore
no possibility to restore
what must i do?

Here is how to solve the problem step by step:
You should connect your iPhone to USB 2.1 port or older. If you are connecting your iPhone to the computer using a USB 3.0 port, disconnect it immediately. iPhones will lock up if you try to update your phone while it is connected through a USB 3.0 port.
Disconnect the iPhone from the computer
Go to Device Manager and find the connected USB port. Click the mouse right button and update the driver
Shut the iPhone by pressing the sleep button and the home button concurrently for some time
Move the USB cable to a USB 2.1 port or older without the iPhone.
Restart iTunes.
Connect the iPhone
Your computer should recognize the phone and reloads the correct USB 2.1 driver (Apple Mobile Device)
Then iTunes should recognize the iPhone and starts reloading the firmware.
When that is complete it may ask if you wish to restore, naturally you say YES
iTunes will restore the iOS
Using iTunes, restore the latest backup to get your data back.
When all of the above is completed. Start enjoying your iPhone.
If the above does not work. Throw your iPhone out of the window and get a replacement Android phone.

Frozen iPhone 5 during restore from iCloud

I backed up my 4s and began setup on my new iPhone 5s. It began the restore from the iCloud but a
Less than inch into the process it froze. It has been an hour with no movement. Should I wait? Shut it off and try again?

Press and hold BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
if no result
recovery mode
open itunes on computer
plug cable into computer not iOS device
turn phone off
hold home button and plug cable into phone. do not release home button until an itunes graphic appears on device.
look to computer should have message about recovery mode click ok and restore
