Got error when updating to ios 5.1

got an error when updating to 5.1 and now phone will not reset. stuck on black screenwith apple on it. i have tried replugging phone into comp but it will not come up in Itunes. I am using a PC by the way.

Possible, but not 100% sealproof. -1 can happen in a variety of situations, not always jailbroken. It's a baseband error and while the risk of getting that error is higher on a non-factory unlocked device, it can still happen.
Even if OP was jailbroken and removed the jailbreak, it's quite difficult, if not impossible to tell the device has been jailbroken before if restored as brand new.
Take the device to an Apple Store for evaluation.

    I get a "download error" when trying to update to iOS 6.0.1 from 5.1.1.
    I have already tried switching the iPad off and on. Also I don't currently have a laptop with iTunes on for a manual installation.
    Any suggestions?

  • IPhone/iTunes backup error when updating to iOS 4.2

    Just bought an Iphone 4 a few days ago and tried several times to update it to iOS 4.2.... it fails EVERY TIME when the iTunes tries to proceed the phone's backup. An error occur and closes the iTunes without updating the phone.
    Such problem didn't happen when updating my iPad... really don't know how to skip this problem and finally update my iPhone properly.
    *** Apple!?!?!?
    PS. I already downloaded the iTunes again, tried to "restore" my iPhone but the same thing keeps happening...

    i have iphone 3gs and this has just happened to me, just in the middle of restoring it now, dread to think whats been lost on it.

  • 1303 error when updating to iOS 5

    5 minutes into the update of my iPad 2 at then end of the backup phase (I have iTunes 10.5 installed on a windows 7 machine) I get an error ( error -1303) and I am given the opportunity to either continue while being advised that all data on the iPad will be lost, or to Cancel the operation. This is what I have observed:
    To see if anything actually gets backed up (I have seen on the net that error 1303 often times are associated with incorrect folder permissions) I have moved the existing backup to another location before starting the update. When the update starts a new backup folder is being created the backup progresses nicely until all is backed up (the new backup folder now is the same size as the one I moved prior to starting the update). At this point the process stops and error 1303 is reported, and the newly created contents of the backup folder is cleared, leaving nothing!
    Since the backup process appears to be writing to the backup folder in the first place, there should be no problem with folder permissions. Have any of you seen this problem, and does anyone have fix?

  • Ipad got stuck when updating to ios 8.1

    Is there a way to restore an iPad that gets stuck while updating to the newest ios?

    FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
    1. Turn off iPad
    2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
    3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
    4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
    DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
    5. Release Home button.
    ON COMPUTER
    6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
    7. Select "Restore iPad"...
    Note:
    1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
    2. You must follow step 1 to step 4 VERY CLOSELY.
    3. Repeat the process if necessary.

  • Hi, my iphone 5 encountered an unknown error while updating to iOS 7 via itunes and is now stuck in recovery mode and prompts me to restore the phone when I connect it to itunes but then I would lose all my data. Any suggestions please?

    Hi, my iphone 5 encountered an unknown error while updating to iOS 7 via itunes and is now stuck in recovery mode and prompts me to restore the phone when I connect it to itunes but then I would lose all my data. I DO NOT have any back ups on itunes. Is there anyway to get out of recovery mode without restoring or recover data after a restore?
    Or any other suggestions please? Thanks

    As pdroth said, you should have gotten a backup made when you started the update of iOS. If you cannot find a backup, and the phone is in recovery mode, there are no futher suggestions to make. To get the phone working again you have to restore. You cannot force a backup at this time since it is already in recovery mode. It will not allow anything else but a restore at this point.

  • When updating to ios 7, my airport does not function in my ipad and iphone. No icon appears...I´ve check I´ve got last firmware on aiport utility, and also I´ve restart both devices... thanks for your support..

    HI!, When updating to ios 7, my airport does not function in my ipad and iphone. No icon appears ...I´ve check I´ve got last firmware on aiport utility, and also I´ve restart both devices... buth still not working

    Restart your AirPort Base Station or other router if that's what you have. Unplug it and allow a moment or two for it to reset before plugging it back in again.
    If that does not work, try resetting your network settings: on the iPad and iPhone, tap Settings > Wi-Fi, select your network then "Forget this Network". Select the network again, provide its password, and verify you can connect.
    If that does not work, Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Select your network again as above.
    If that does not work, "hard reset" your AirPort Base Station, assuming you are using one and not some third party product. You will need to reconfigure it using AirPort Utility.

  • Error when updating to 4.2

    My Ipod Touch is on ios 2.2.1 and always get error when updating to 4.2

    I think you have a 1st Gen iPod Touch. You can only go up to iOS 2.2.1 OR you can purchased the iOS 3.1 firmware.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2052
    Purchase the iOS 3.1 Software Update directly from the iTunes Store.
    IF NOT, then try to get a better internet connection (if connect with Wi-Fi) or wait a while and try to reupdate again. If you have to make sure iTunes is up to date (iTunes 11.x)

    Does anyone know how to solve this tiresome problem, please!?? The update is downloaded upto 723.5MB, and is required upto 723,6MB, then the error message pops out! Tnx.

    I have a quick wifi connection (Mac shows it as about 35 megabits) but I couldn't get the 5.0.1 OTA to work, I had to do it via cable to my computer's iTunes - and as I was already on iOS 5 it was only a small download, basically the same size as the OTA size.
    As the original poster is talking about a 730 meg download then I assume that they are still on iOS 4.3.5 or below and can therefore only download via their computer's iTunes - you need to be on iOS 5+ before you get the OTA option.

    Force close the App Store app and reset the iPad. No data will be lost when you reset the device.
    In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Next, reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
