How long does it take to restore and iPhone 5

Im been restoring my phone for 3 hours now how long will it take. It's been on a black screen with the loading symbol circling.

Hey Leabea18,
Thanks for the question. If you are experiencing issues restoring your iPhone, you might wish to attempt a restore in recovery mode:
iOS: Unable to update or restore

  • How long does it take to restore firmware.My phone has been in recovery for 3 hours now?

    How long does it take to restore firmware on iphone5.The phone is only 3 week old and has been in recovery mode for nearly 3 hours now?

    - No. That is too long. What does the status bar in iTunes say the iPod is doing?
    - Terminate the sync. Force close iTunes if necessary then reboot the computer. Also reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Try again. If still problem come back with what the status bar says when it stopped.

  • How long does it take to download and install Yosemite?

    How long does it take to download and install Yosemite?

    That is going to depend on the speed of your Internet connection as well as your machine. It took about an hour to install on my mid 2011 iMac if I recall. I started it and walked away, stopping in to check on it a few times throughout the evening.  That doesn't include the time it takes to download the ~5GB installer.

    How long does it take to download and install maverick, not got high speed connection

    It always depends on your network.
    Can always go to http://www.speedtest.net and it will let you know your download speed and can do the math.
    It will take about 2 hours on a good network though.

  • How long does it take to update the iPhone 4?

    How long does it take to update the iPhone 4?

        Interesting question, beachn! If I understand correctly, you're trying to see how long it will take to update the software/operating system of an iPhone 4. If that's the case, the during of a software update will depend greatly on the speed of your computer and/or your phone. I've seen the process vary from 4 minutes to an hour. If I did not understand correctly, please describe what you mean by update. Thanks!

  • HT1766 How long should it take to restore new iPhone backup from iCloud?

    How long should it take to restore new 4s iPhone backup from iCloud?

    That depends mostly on your Internet connection download speed, and how much data you have on the phone. It could take anything from a few minutes to several days. There is no "one size fits all" answer.

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

  • How long does it take to restore 2TB drive to a New external?

    I recently purchased a new 2tb external drive FW800 and wanted copy data from my older 2tb FW400 to this one. I used the restore method in Disk Utility to copy disk partition to the new partition. Its being saying "setup" for hours and hasn't copied. Is this normal? I even tried to hit cancel and nothing ever happens.  I'm thinking maybe I should have just did a data copy? How long does this normally take. Am I just being Impatient?
    Also will rebooting and starting over do anything to the hard drive if its in the middle or a format or something?

    It depends on how much app, music , etc need to be transfered. But 5 hours is a bit too long I think

  • How long does it take to restore my iphone5 ?

    Its been over 24 hours of restoring ? Does it usually take this long ? I just noticed all my pictures finished uploading but its still saying its restoring and wont let me update to iOS7

    Depends on how fast your internet is to download the newset version of ios, your phone only stays in recovery mode for about 15 mins then it will time out and go back to normal mode if you forced it into recovery mode
    i would suggest unplugging the device, restating your computer, make sure your anti virus is turned off then performing the restore again.

  • How long does it take to restore?

    My computer crashed while itunes is updating my ophone from 4.0 to 4.1, so I had to do a restore. After 8 hours and still not finished, I disconnected it. I don't have any valuable data on my iphone. How can I do a clean install of iOS whatever version?

    A restore with iTunes does or should not take 8 hours or anywhere close to it. The entire restore process can fluctuate depending on the iPhone's storage capacity and how much iTunes content is selected to be transferred to the iPhone with also includes the size of all selected apps to be installed.
    Did your computer crash while the update was being downloaded or after the update was downloaded during the actual install?
    Try temporarily disabling your antivirus software during the restore process. If nothing occurs when selecting Restore, try placing your iPhone into Recovery mode. If placing your iPhone into Recovery mode is successful, this will require restoring your iPhone with iTunes.

  • How long does it take to set up iphone 6 from icloud restore

    I am trying to set up my new iPhone 6 plus from the icloud back up I made on my old iPhone 5c.  Its been several hours, everything appears to be on the phone but when I go to settings to try to update the ios, it states I cannot perform the update until the restore is finished.
    How long should this process take and how can I tell if there is a problem or if it is just taking a very long time...in other words, how long is TOO long and indicates a problem?
    I also cannot perform another back up until this is done so I am concerned about losing data.
    thanks.

    That all depends on how large the backup is.

  • I have sent an email to my printer. How long does it take to receive and print?

    My printer is registered and it can eprint.  I can print from my cell phone and laptop.  
    I set up an email address for it and have now sent 2 emails to the printer but nothing is happening.  Is there something else I need to do or does it just take a long time for the printer to receive and print emails?

    Hi Arwill,
    As long as the printer is 'Connected' and 'Ready' at ePrintCenter.com, the print job should be successful in a timely sense.
    Did you receive the auto-reply that says your ePrint job has been received? 
    Do you see the print job as 'Pending' at ePrintCenter.com?
    If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided!

  • How long does it take to get your iPhone 5 battery replaced?

    For anyone who had their iPhone 5 battery replaced in the replacement program, I was wondering if you could tell me how long this took and what the procedure is. Can you do this at a Genius Bar? I'm probably going to have no more than a few hours to do this between trips and wondering if it takes five minutes or a couple of days.
    Thanks very much.

    The current iPhone 5 battery replacement program has caused some Apple Stores (including all of them in Houston) to run out of spare batteries. They order more, but can take a few days to get fresh stock.
    I went into a store on Tuesday. The Genius ran a diagnostic to be sure my battery was in bad enough shape o qualify. It did, but they were out of batteries, so they put me in line to get one. Today's shipment included a battery with my name on it, so I took the phone back in today. The replacement was complete about 45 minutes later.
