  • Restoring iPhone after trying to install 3.0

    First off, let me just say I would have posted this topic in the dev forums if they worked.
    After trying to restore my iPhone 3G with the new 3.0 GM Seed using Xcode I get the error message "ERROR: Connected to device: Unable to open file"
    Now my iPhone is stuck in recovery mode, and after trying to restore it with iTunes (I assume that isn't working because I'm trying to restore it to the latest public release which would be 'downgrading' it) I tried again with Xcode - I cannot restore my iPhone to any of the software versions available.
    So I now essentially have an expensive, touch-screen brick.
    I'd really appreciate any help on this - I can't even enter the dev forums without getting an error message.

  • PC no longer recognises my iPhone after trying to update to iOS 5...Help!?!?

    When returning from popping out of the house, as the Back UP and Update was taking forever, I came home to find that my iPhone has updated to iOS 5 but failed to Restore itself.  On top of this my PC no longer recognises my iPhone and issues a message 'USB Device Not Recognized'.  Now I have tried several attempts at fixing this, reinstalling iTunes, disabling and re-enabling USB Drives but nothing seems to work.  So I am now left with an empty phone, no contacts nothing, which can't even connect to my PC.
    Any Ideas???????????????????

    I had the same problem, I shut down the computer, disconnected it, etc... nothing helped. I went to the Apple store and they fixed it by restoring my phone to factory defaults and then updating. When I got home I connected to Itunes and it synched all my information back to the phone. If you have synched your information to Icloud you have to do it there!

    Hello richardayoub1,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    If your iPhone is in recovery mode, you will need to restore it with iTunes.

  • Iphone is stuck in recovery mode and cannot restore after trying to update to iOS6 - not jailbroken

    I have an iphone4s, and the question basically says it all - after trying to update to ios6, the udgrade downloaded to my computer and started loading onto my phone. However it sudeenly just stopped an turned into the balck screen asking to plug into itunes. When I do this, it says I have to restore the phone, but when I try to restore, it says there is an error (3014).
    I have tried:
    - pressing the home and top buttons unti the apple appears
    - Checked all security software and the ports aren't blocked
    - Have tried pressing option+restore to choose ios6 and ios5.1.1 - neither has worked
    - Its been like this for about a day and a half now, and I have probably tried to restore it at least 50 times to no avail, always with the same error code.
    What can I do??
    Is this something to do with how busy the appl servers are? And when should I expect to be able to use my phone again?

    Yeah same exact problem as me.  EXACTLY.  In a way I'm glad more than just me are having the problem so I know it's probably not on my end and on the apple side....I HOPE that is what it is.
    MAN, a whole day and a half????  Crap I need my phone to work....
    I really think it's the apple servers because it errors 3014 right when iTunes says "verifying phone....." something....  It goes away so fast I can't read the rest, but I think that is the step where it verifies phone to the apple servers, which are overloaded, I assume.
    It's gotta be that.  How many other people are having this same exact issue?
