HT201210 My iphone is frozen

My iphone is frozen, when I plug it in to itunes to restore, it says Restore and then extracts information, but then it says: Iphone could not be restored. The device cannot be found.

  • My iPhone is frozen. Troubleshooting doesn't work

    My shiny new iPhone that I waited in line for on SF on Friday is iFrozen.
    I have about 30 threaded text conversations, 30 contacts, 3 email accounts, 20 photo's, 600 songs, 2 TV shows and 1 movie.
    I understand photo's, songs, video and contacts will synch back to my phone if reset.
    The device is not an iPod, it's a Phone, which means I would HATE to lose my threaded text conversations and have to setup up my email accounts AGAIN (after 3 days of use).
    iPod hard reset? No big deal, less is lost (sometimes).
    Phone hard reset? Not good at all.
    On top of these issues, Safari has crashed on me at least 7 times and while I was playing music on the ipod app i decided to hop over to my text messages to send a message. Once I got in the text message app the ipod app crashed (i.e. the music in my car stopped playing).
    Crashes and now it's frozen.
    Restarting (doesn't work):
    Try restarting iPhone. To turn it off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone on, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Unfreeze (doesn't work):
    Does iPhone appear frozen or stuck? Try pressing and holding the Home button for 6 seconds to close a frozen application. Then try restarting iPhone again.
    Is the "reset" option in troubleshooting a hard reset?
    On my Windows Mobile phone I can pop out the battery and it will recover through the safe mode boot without having to hard reset the device.
    Is there another way to unfreeze this thing?
    Current iPhone state: Displaying Home screen, touch unresponsive, on/off switch unresponsive, home button unresponsive.
    Strangely iTunes still recognizes the phone when i connect it to my Mac and goes through the entire synch process fine.
    Why isn't there a soft reset in iTunes to send to the phone?
    Phone calls go straight to voicemail.
    Best,

    No, get the screen fixed.

    Have you tried a reset which is similar to a computer restart and is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release?

    Unknown "source"?  Do you mean unknown "error" followed by a number?

    Follow the instructions in the article.  When you connect your phone again, you may have to press both the home and sleep/wake buttons until the Apple logo reappears, then continue pressing the home button until iTunes detects the phone in recovery mode.

  • IPhone 4S Frozen whilst updating 10.5.1.42

    I have been trying to update my phone to my iTunes, and I was returned with error 1603, and now my iPhone is frozen on the download screen of update.
    I cannot turn it off, I hold the off button down for 10 seconds plus and nothing happens.
    When I connect my phone to my computer, iTunes doesn't recognise that there is a device connected, and when I run diagnostics through iTunes, it says no iPhone found.
    The phone is completely frozen.

    The same thing is happening to me (same itunes version, windows 7 and iphone 4s).
    I found that if you reboot and try and reboot and try and reboot and try and reboot and try it will eventually work once.  but then on the next sync it hangs again.
    also it seems to hang in different places (the progress bar is never in the same place when it hangs).
    Let me know if you figure out a better way to fix it.

    Hi there beee19,
    You may find the troubleshooting steps in the article below helpful.
    Resolve specific iTunes update and restore errors

    Check USB connections
    Related errors: 13, 14, 1600, 1601, 1602, 1603, 1604, 1611, 1643-1650, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, 4000, 4005, 4013, 4014, 4016, “invalid response,” and being prompted to restore again after a restore completes.
    If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
    To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
    Use another USB cable.
    Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
    Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
    Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.
    If you checked your connections and are still seeing the error message, check for hardware issues.
