HT1438 Updating iphone with itunes

I tried to update my iphone 4 & now it won't turn on unless I plug it into itunes. I don't have a computer capable of the updated version of itunes so I don't know how to get my phone working again. Help!

If I go to the Apple store, will it deleted everything on my phone?
Yes...  Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything... and you must continue with the Recovery...
After you have Recovered your Device... Restore from the most recent Backup...

  • Just updated iPhone with iTunes and everything on iPhone is wiped and even says there is no simcard inserted.

    I just updated my iPhone with iTunes from my Mac and the entire contents of the iPhone are wiped. It wants me to reconfigure from scratch but then says there is no simcard inserted so must have wiped that too?   I have no Wifi where I am. iTunes will not allow me to access the iPhone either - it can detect it but as it says there is no simcard it wont read it.
    Can anyone help I am soooo annoyed!

    The switch from an available wi-fi network to AT&T's cellular network and back again has always been automatic and seamless with nothing special required - as the iPhone is designed to do.
    If the standard troubleshooting steps do not resolve this, which in order are power your iPhone off and on, reset, restore with iTunes, the next step (assuming you are in the U.S.) is calling AppleCare at (800) 694-7466, or make an appointment at an Apple Store if there is one nearby.

  • Can't update iPhone with iTunes

    Hi everyone,
    I've recently downloaded the most recent update for the iPhone 3GS and tried to install it today. Every time I try to update the phone, the message "The iPhone "Sian's iPhone" could not be updated. This device isn't eligible for the requested build" appears. (See below)
    My iPhone isn't jailbroken, my iTunes software is up-to-date (10.2.2) and my laptop's software is up-to-date (Mac OS X 10.6.7).
    I've never had this problem before... Sometimes when I plug my phone into the wall or in the laptop it says "Charging is not supported with this accessory" even though I'm using genuine Apple accessories, etc. I'm not sure if this helps you determine the issue.
    Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me update my iPhone!

    Here's what is mentioned for your error in the updated version (June 22nd) of iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    Don't forget to update iTunes, the newest version is 10.3.1 Maybe a different USB cable is also worth a try.
    This device is not eligible for the requested build: Also sometimes displayed as an error 3194. If you receive this error, update to the latest version of iTunes. If you do have the latest version of iTunes, this can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Try restoring in a new user to ensure that iTunes downloads a new IPSW. 3rd party security software or router security settings can also cause this issue, to resolve please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. Downgrading to a previous version of iOS is not supported. If you have installed software to perform unauthorized modifications to your iOS device, that software may have redirected connections to the update server (gs.apple.com) within the Hosts file. For steps to edit the Hosts file and allow iTunes to communicate with the update server, see  iTunes: Troubleshooting iTunes Store on your computer, iPhone, iPad, or iPod; follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store.

    Re: Is Iphoto gone ? i want it back!
    in response to Johannes666
    Recommended
    Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
    If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
    Install the App from the App Store.
    Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.

    One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
    iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

    You need to do as provided. If no change after restoring as a new iPhone or not from the backup, the iPhone has a hardware problem.

    Hi Michela27,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you have content on your iPhone that isn't on your computer, the best thing is to use the advice in this article to transfer it to your new computer before setting up sync:
    iTunes: Transferring media from your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or iPod

  • How do i sync my iphone with itunes

    how do i sync my iphone with itunes?

    Connect your iPhone to your computer, launch iTunes. Make sure you see the iPhone under Devices on the left side of the iTunes window.
    Then select from the menu what you want to sync.. Music / Apps / Video / Podcasts etc.
    Tunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software
    If iTunes does not recognize your iPhone under Devices, click here.

  • Unable to sync my iphone with itunes over wi-fi

    This might be me be being extremely dumb, but I am unable to sync my iphone with itunes over wi-fi. I have itunes 10.5 on windows, have iOS 5. When I plug my phone into my computer I have ticked the box on the device summary screen enabling wi-fi sync but when I go into my iPhone menu, the "sync now" box is greyed out and it just says that it will resume sync when my computer is available.
    Any suggestions>??

    Sign me up for a "me too"
    updated 1 iPad,1 iPod and 2 iPhone4s and sync works on all but my iPhone4
    Each iP* device has it's own Windows 7 system to sync with
    When I unplug the iPad, iPod or other iPhone, the device stays in the devices list in iTunes
    When I unplug my iPhone, it disappears from the devices list (which makes me think it's iTunes being petulant)
    Have tried rebooting bot windows and the iPhone, disabling the firewall and 'repairing' iTunes
    It's a 64 bit windows 7, FWIW, but the other iPhone 4 talks nice to a 64 bit windows 7

    Hey wavymitch,
    I changed my iTunes account email address and Apple ID Sign-in.  My iPhone and iPad 3 keeps bring up my old email address when I go to download any updates to any of the apps on the phone/pad and from there I am unable to log into my Apple ID. When I enter the settings on the devices to view "iTunes & Apps Stores" and then select "View Apple ID" I am once again unable to access with existing password which did not change in iTunes. 
    I appreciate your response and look forward to a solution(s).  Thanks much for your help and patience!

  • When I Restore My iPhone with itunes gives error -1 will end of the Installing  firmware

    When I Restore My iPhone with itunes gives error -1 will end of the Installing  firmware

    Error 1 means, as the link that Chris gave you says, that your phone is either jailbroken or damaged.
    It can also mean that your antivirus is blocking the update, but this is rare. Try disabling your antivirus if your phone is not jailbroken. If that doesn't resolve the problem you need to get the phone fixed or replaced.
    If the phone IS jailbroken you have just learned why you should not hack an iPhone. And you will have to go somewhere other than an Apple-hosted forum for help.

  • I tried to sync my iPhone with iTunes, was asked if i wanted to use old phone or new.  I pressed old and lost  recent photos and apps.  what can i do to undo this mess

    An update was requested in my iphone settings to sync my iphone with itunes.  In my attempt to do this, I chose to sync with my old phone and lost all recent photos and apps.  Is there any way to reverse this mess and retrieve what I had?

    So, what i need to is
    1. Check my iphone backup first if avaiable
    2. Do ' restore ' my iphone at itunes
    Is it correct?
    After i do all of this, what is the next step? Is it
    1. Just plug in back my iphone and itunes will automatically sync asking to use a backup ipnone?
    Or need to do manually?
    Make me confuse is, if i do all the step as previous mention, but pc still recognize my iphone as a ipod everytime i plug in into itunes.
    How if i in pc dont have my iphone backup ? Because since first time plug in into itunes, i was used the ipod backup?
    Sorry to ask too much since i really need help from your guys
