How do I turn on iphone after trying to update software through itunes on computer?

Normally when updating while connected to your computer running iTunes the iPhone will go through the complete update process and then restart. It will vibrate when it is finished restarting.

  • After forgetting the password for my iPhone, I am trying to restore it through iTunes, however, during the process, the phone keeps turning on and asking for the password, thus canceling the process. Any advice?

    Yes, you will still get the prompt.
    I meant reset then try the recovery mode restore again.
    You can also try DFU Mode.
    DFU (Device Firmware Update) Mode is different than Recovery Mode.
    DFU Mode is a special mode where the device can still interface with iTunes, yet it does not load the iBoot bootloader.
    DFU Mode:
    Plug your device into your computer.
    Turn off the device.
    Hold the Power button for 3 seconds
    Hold the Home button without releasing the Power button for 10 seconds
    Release the Power Button but keep holding the Home button
    Keep holding the Home button until you are alerted by iTunes saying that it has detected a device in Recovery Mode
          NOTE: Make sure the device screen is blank and no logos are present. Be patient, it make take several trys.

  • HT4623 How do I update my iphone 5 to the new ios7 software using itunes on my computer?

    How do I update my iphone 5 to the new ios7 software using itunes on my computer?

    Just for clarity, do you have iTunes 11.1 now on your computer?  If yes, when you connect your iPhone via your USB / Lightning cable is your iTunes opening with a small box near the top right of screen that shows your iPhone connected?  If yes then you can click through the various views of your iPhones content areas, such as Music, Photos, etc.  You will eventually get to a screen that is Status.  On that screen you should see the iOS Update option.

    Hi,
        There was ios 4.1 in my iphone3gs.i have tried to update it through itunes but there is a problem.After installation through itunes,there is problem that it is not activating my iphone and shows a message that your iphone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable,try connecting your iphone to itunes to activate it,or try again in a couple of minutes.i tried many times but it again shows the same message,
    after installation,when i connect my iphone to itunes it shows a message that we are unable to activate your iphone at this time please try again or contact customer care.please reply me urgently to resolve this problem.

    That is usually a symptom thet the phone was hacked or jailbroken. Was it?

  • I have iphone 3gs. I upgraded its software through itunes but it stopped reading sim. Then I restored but since then iphone is locked with message to insert a carrier compatible sim. I've checked my sim is ok. How to restore the iphone?

    I have iphone 3gs. I upgraded its software through itunes but it stopped reading sim. Then I restored but since then iphone is locked with message to insert a carrier compatible sim. I've checked my sim, it is ok. How to restore the iphone?

    I'm going to make some guesses here. You bought your phone second hand. In other words, not from Apple and not from your carrier. What you got is a hacked phone that was originally carrier locked, most likely to AT&T in the US. You are NOT in the US. (If I get any of this wrong, please tell me).
    What has happened is when you updated the software, it was re-locked to the original carrier.  ONLY the carrier can authorize an unlock. If it is locked to AT&T, you're out of luck as they WILL NOT unlock an iPhone for any reason.
    If it's locked to another carrier, you will have to find out what carrier that is (you can NOT tell by looking at the model number) and find out if they unlock iPhones. If you can't find out, or if they do not, then your only real option is to sell the phone and purchase one from a LEGITIMATE source.

  • I have a 16GB iPhone 3GS. Tried synching my phone through iTunes (11.0.1 I think... on a 2009 Macbook Pro). Now when I connect to iTunes, it says it does not recognise the content on my phone. Is this because my phone (and laptop) are too old?

    I have a 16GB iPhone 3GS. Tried synching my phone through iTunes (11.0.1 I think... on a 2009 Macbook Pro). Now when I connect to iTunes, it says it does not recognise the content on my phone. Is this because my phone (and laptop) are too old?
    Also, when I tried to Restore the settings, an Error Message pops up that says " The iPhone software update server could not be contacted. The requested resource was not found.
    I'm trying to free up space on my phone by removing [literally] thousands of old photos which were originally synched to the phone, because I had forgotten to uncheck the photos button when I synched it ages ago.
    I have also tried synching it on my 24" iMac (running OSX Snow Leopard). But again, when I try restoring the phone through itunes, it says the file is corrupted. It sggests unplugging the device, and then plugging it in again. I have done this numerous times with no success.
    I'm guessing it must be because my phone (and versions of iTunes, and OSX) are all too old.
    Please can anybody help.
    Cheers,

    There are multiple reasons that lead to issue. You should read the troubleshooting guide to get the right solution to solve the issue: iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support

    Shame you had the iPhone hacked as  O2 usually unlock their customers iPhones happily.
    We cannot discuss your problem as it is in breach of the Ts&Cs you agreed to on registering
    However hint ....you have probably trashed it

  • My phone does not want to come on pass the 'connect to itunes' logo.   I have a iphone 3Gs. It happened after I tried to restore it after updating it through itunes on my computer.

    My phone does not want to come on pass the 'connect to itunes' logo on the screen.  This happened after I was updating the phone software through itunes, and itunes said I needed to restore my phone if it is to work with itunes, which I did.  An error (1015) box popped up and... well.... here we are.  I have an iphone 3G.  The support coverage is expired. 
    I just want to return to my phone functioning as before.

    Was this iPhone jailbroken?

  • Z1 wont turn back on after trying to update the software !

    last night i tried to update to the current software.
    1 it backed up the phone as always
    2 it was in the process of prparint the phone for update. i left the phone connected to the pc while it did this. when i came back in the pc was a blue screen saying it had to shut down.
    3 the pc restarted but now my pc wont recognise the phone at all, ive tried using different usb ports and ive also uninstalled then reinstalled sony pc companion but the pc still wont recognise the phone.
    4 when i try to turn the phone on i get a message saying software update failed and reconnect to the pc !
    what is wrong ???

    I had a similar problem, does the phone show anything on the screen, for example "update failed, connect to computer" if it does, try opening "Sony PC Companion 2.1" click start on "support zone" then click "phone/ tablet software update" a message will pop up, press repair my phone / tablet, select your phone in the list, then follow what it says, try doing this even if the phone shows nothing, you will lose everything, all data will be gone if you follow my steps

  • TS1538 Iphone frozen after trying to update to 5.1.1

    Help!
    My friend is in pieces, she has tried to update to 5.1.1.  She wanted to sync beforehand to itunes but it told her to update to 5.1.1 so she did and now the phone is frozen.  It's telling her to restore her phone.  If I tell her to do a hard reset (home+sleep button) will she lose her data that's on her phone right now?

    1.  There is no such thing as a "hard" (or "soft") reset in iPhone terminology.  What you described is actually called just a reset, or phone reset.  See the User Guide, Appendix B
    2. Resetting as above doesn't delete any data, but probably won't help if the phone is telling her to restore.
    3. Restoring may lose data if she never backed up previous to updating.
    4. Worrying about losing data is pointless if the phone is nonfunctional and can't access it anyway.  It may already be gone or corrupted.
    5. We all know it's you, not your friend, with this problem...

  • Screen stuck on Apple Logo after Trying to Update Software

    My iphone screen is locked on the apple icon after trying twice ( and unsuccessfully) to download the 2.2.1 software update. Plugging the phone into a computer or power source doesn't help.
    Would appreciate any help with how to get this working...

    Used the iPhone Troubleshooting Assistant and decided to "reset" the phone and restore to it's factory settings.
