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. -
So I lost my ipod 5 and then I turned on lock mode using Find my iphone. But then I found my ipod and being stupid, I forgot the password. I looked up what
I'm suppose to do and it said I had to go onto icloud and delete the device from icloud. I did that but it said, my ipod wont restart until I connect to the internet. When I connect to itunes, it says i need to go onto icloud and turn of find my iphone, or in this case ipod. I already did that though.
I also cant connect to the wifi. It wont let me turn it on. I think when it went into lock mode, it turned of the wifi. I cant reset my ipod unless its connected to the internet. I have no idea what to do. Help, please.Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode. -
My problem is that I cannot let me phone turn off or sleep too long without it going into recovery mode! It becomes very stubborn to get out and also extremely annoying! Need a permant fix!!
No warranty left -_-Guitargirlcaz wrote:
I've checked with Apple. They only give 28Days warranty now :'(
Whoever told you that is wrong. The warranty on a repair or replacement iPhone is still 90 days minimum. Quoting from their Service FAQ:
If defects arise as a result of service, Apple will cover the repair for the remaining term of the iPhone's warranty or 90 days after iPhone service, whichever provides longer coverage for you.
Call Apple Support and discuss your problem with them. If they agree that it's a hardware problem, they can arrange for mail-in service.

i was updating software and suddenly my IPHONE started asking for I tunes on mobile screen , how can i get by screen back or How i can restore without loosing data , I m more worried about data , Please help in resolutio
What exactly are you seeing on the phone's screen ? If the iTunes icon and cable then the phone is in recovery mode, in which case it's too late to take a new backup or to copy any content off the phone - you will have to connect the phone to your computer's iTunes and reset it back to factory defaults, after which you can restore to the last backup that you took or just resync your content to it

My iphone 4 is in recovery mode after trying to install update 7.1.1. How can I get out of this with out having to do a restore?
You don't. You have no choice but to restore at this point. The update did not complete successfully. iOS needs to be restored using iTunes.

i renewed my subscription on my mac but my iPhone is still asking me to renew the iCloud how do I get my phone to update that i've already renewed?
Hi Randers4 thank you for trying to help. I finally gave up and just called apple. Apparantly my renewel went under my icloud ID while my previous accout was my itunes ID. Never had to match them before but I guess we do now. Once I switched my iphone ID to the ID I used to renew the icloud it backed up. Live and learn.
Thanks again, hope this helps others too. -
I just installed Firefox on a new HP 600-1120 with Windows 7 and it is only running in "safe" mode. Why? How do I get it to run in "regular" mode? How does "safe" mode differ?

Use the Toshiba recovery disk or the Toshiba HDD recovery option.
If you dont have the Toshiba Recovery disk try the HDD recovery:

This works only if the recovery image files from Toshiba are still on the HDD:
If you installed the system using another disk as Toshiba recovery disk, this recovery option will not work. -
I have recently ran into an issue with my new iPhone 5 I went to connect to iTunes and when I did it restored my phone to my iPhone 4 that was previously connected to my laptop, how do I get rid of the iPhone 4 stuff and be able to connect my iPhone 5 without further issues?
If you have a backup in iTunes or iCloud, you can restore it from there.
To check in iTunes, open the Preferences pane and click on Devices > You will see the backups listed there.
You will want to do this on the computer that you typically sync your iPhone to.
Or if you have an iCloud backup, go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings and in the setup menu, choose your backup. -
I had music on my i tunes that I deleted. When I sync my iphone the music that was deleted shows up. How do I get rid of the music I do not want on my iphone?
Connect your I-phone to i-tunes , click on music . Not the one in the library but the music that opened up when you connected to i-tunes . Highlight the complete album or songs you want deleted, then right click and delete. Once you deleted the songs off you i-phone, then click the music from the library of your i-tunes. If that same music or album is also in there then repeat what you did in the i-phone to delete . This should take it all out.
good luck -

Hello brjdunn,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
