HELPPP!! Please - Interrupted a reset

Hi i was wondering if anyone could help. I have an iphone which is just over 15 months old, never had any problems with it. However i went to erase all contents and settings to start again with a blank canvas and in the middle of the reset i remembered i need something from the phone, therefore i closed it down (i know...how stupid), now when i try to turn it on im just getting the apple symbol and then its going off after about a minute. Hellpp please xx

Try recovery mode:
1. Start iTunes
2. Connect you phone to a USB port on the computer, not an external hub or keyboard port.
3. If the phone hasn't been charged, let it charge for 15 minutes.
4. Press both the home and sleep/wake buttons until the Apple logo appears, then continue pressing the home button alone until iTunes sees the phone in recovery mode.
5. Follow the prompts to restore.
FYI - the "Erase All Contents and Settings" function is a very slow process that overwrites all data for security reasons and is needed only when you need to "erase" the phone without iTunes or when security is a major issue. You can achieve the "bank slate" much more quickly by Resorting the phone in iTunes as a new iPhone.

    Hello sydney235,
    You may need to update your MacBook Air with your new Apple ID password.
    OS X Mountain Lion and later: Open the Messages app, select Messages > Preferences, then click the Accounts icon.
    If you signed out before changing your Apple ID password, click Accounts and enter your current Apple ID to sign in.
    If you're still signed in with your previous Apple ID password, click Accounts, then select your previous Apple ID from the list of accounts. Click Sign Out, then click Sign Out again when asked to confirm. Enter your current Apple ID to sign in.

    The reset link, as described in steps 1 to 5 on this page, will only show if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account. If you don't have one then go to (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you won't get the reset option - you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.

    We are fellow users here on these forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
    The page that you posted from tells you how to reset them i.e. if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then steps 1 to 5 half-way down that page should let you reset them.
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.

  • Please Help - Contacts reset or delete

    Following a synch using PocketMac SyncManager I found that Contacts are frozen on a find screen. I can't get past that one screen so I have no access to my contacts list. I've tried to synch again several times and I removed the battery hoping it would reset. No go. "Reset all devices to first synch state" also does nothing. All other applications are working fine. All suggestions re a fix for my contacts problem are welcomed. Thanks.

    Have you done a simple reset... ?
    With the BlackBerry device powered ON, remove the battery a few seconds and then reinsert the battery to reboot.
    So, after rebooting now, you open your Contacts, what happens?

  • Please help factory reset ipad remotely

    I did a stupid thing — sold my 3rd gen ipad and forgot to factory reset before mailing. It's in transit now, probably arriving to new owner tomorrow.
    I need to remotely erase it without locking out the new owner. I can access it via icloud/find my iphone and it has a passcode lock. I don't remember if Find my iphone is loadeded on it or if I set it to delete content after # of incorrect passcode attempts. I suppose that would be the easiest way to fix this situation.
    Via icloud, I've set it to erase all content as soon as it is connected to the internet. Then I'm thinking, he can email me that it's been erased, then I remove it from my icloud account and that will allow new owner to start from scratch.
    Please let me know if this will work...or what will.
    thank you!

  • Bluetooth Icon disappears and no Bluetooth in System Preferences.  Can anyone help please.  Have reset PRAM and SMC, but this does not work at all.

    This issue happened randomly.  I was working away and the bluetooth just disappeared.  The first time this happened, I reset the SMC and it solved the issue. Now, nothing seems to work including removing the bluetooth plist file.  Any ideas on how to fix?  Thanks.

    To find out if it's system wide or user specific, try this...
    Open System Preferences>Users & Groups, unlock the lock, click on the little plus icon, make a new admin account, log out & into the new account.
    Does it work in the new account?
