HT1688 I can't set up my iphone 3GS correctly

I had to restore my iphone last night and when it was done restoring i could not set it up.

Your post is too vague to help.  State exactly what you did and exactly what happened, including details of any error messages.
Note that if your phone was previously hacked to unlock from a carrier, when you updated the phone became re-locked to its original carrier.

  • Can i set up an iphone 3GS when my left bottom of my screen isn't responding? (Can't click on '123' button)

    So I got an old iPhone 3GS from a friend.
    He said he would reset it for me. He also said that sometimes the bottom of the screen isn't responding (only when you use the keyboard).
    Now I'm home and I want to set-up the iphone with my icloud and such.
    But I can't type my password when I'm in the first time setup on the phone.
    Is it possible to do this trough iTunes?
    'Cause you can't flip the keyboard on screen 90 degrees.

  • How can I set up two iPhones with the same contact, photos, music etc... but a different sim card and phone number. They will both be my phones, but one will be for use in other countries.

    Phone A = phone with information you want duplicated
    Phone B = phone that you want to copy from A
    Backup Phone A.
    Wipe Phone B using these instructions. What to do before selling or giving away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    Phone B should be on the 'Hello' screen. Do not swipe it. Launch iTunes. Plug in Phone B.
    When iTunes asks if you want to set up as new phone or restore from backup, choose restore from backup of Phone A.
    After this setup, any changes to one phone (i.e. adding a contact, downloading an app) will have to be manually duplicated on the second phone, if that is your desire). Making changes to one phone will not affect the other after setup.

  • Can't set password on iPhone 5

    Can't set password on iPhone 5 eg yahoo

    As of this morning I cannot send email  from my iCloud IMAP account on my iPad Air, my iPhone 5, or my Mac Mini over our Time Warner Internet connection. However, if I turn off Wi-Fi on my iPhone 5, I can send email as usual over the Verizon cellular network. Same with my iPad Air, when I use the iPhone as a hotspot. Same is true at my office and at Starbucks. I can send email using our EarthLink account from all devices over our Time Warner Internet, but not the iCloud IMAP account. I have an iPhone 5C at the office. Same with the 5C. With a Wi-Fi connection I cannot send email. With a cellular connection email sends as usual. I can recieve email normally even over Wi-Fi.

    How can I set up my iphone as a pager when my sound is cut off?

    I had a droid before that I used as a pager. I found an app that would allow me to tell my phone even if its in silence mode if I got a text from "??" whatever then beep/sound off anyway. Since there are so many more apps in the Apple world I cant beive there isnt an equivalant app.
    When the sound is muted, all notifications are muted. Because of the greater inherent security in iOS than Android, an app such as you describe is not possible. There are no apps that can selectively override the mute. App developers do not have access to those system functions.

  • Why can't i activate my iphone 3gs after upgrading it to ios 6?

    why can't i activate my iphone 3gs after upgrading it to ios 6?
    It says,
    ''There is no sim card installed in the iphone you are attempting to activate''
    Thanks for your help in advance!

    There are several common causes for this problem:
    Your security software (Antivirus, firewall, router settings) is blocking access to gs.apple.com, Apple's activation servers. Try temporarily disabling your security applications on your computer.
    You have a redirect in your hosts file that defines a different IP address for gs.apple.com. you must delete all references to gs.apple.com from your hosts file (c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts, or /etc/hosts on a Mac)
    Your phone is jailbroken or otherwise hacked.

    You can't. The whatsapp developers have stopped support for your phone. You can contact whatsapp and tell them, as it is not an Apple product.
