You may need to try this More than Once...
Be sure to Follow ALL the Steps...
Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
To minimise loss... Connect to iTunes on the computer you Usually Sync with and Restore from the most recent Backup...

If you did the update through iTunes, try going into the Settings App on your iPhone and doing the Software Update in there. The same thing happened to me, and the wireless update worked.

Although there will be many here that will sympathise with your situation, this is a user to user forum. Apple don't come here. The store (if you go to apple.com) now do real time chats. Failing that you'd need to call them to sort your issue out.
Hope this helps

HT201210 I just tried to update my iphone 5 c and its now put my phone into recovery mode

when i connect it to the computer to restore it its making me download the update first which i dont want to do cos it takes hours,
is there anyway out of the downloading the update at this stage and just restoring my iphone?
Thanks

Delete it? My iPhone was connected to my laptop, and I said Download and Install (or whatever) from iTunes. It downloaded it, then announced the firmware version was wrong... so I know of no intermediate file to delete. I just tried it again, hitting the Download Only button, but I see absolutely no indication of where that file would be stored, or, now that it is (supposedly) downloaded, how I would go about installing it. Thanks for your suggestion, though.

TS1424 What does it mean when your trying to update or install your app and it says "unable to download at this time retry or done???

When trying to update my games I kept getting interrupted with a message saying "cannot download now" then you choose retry or done. What is going on??

Have you tried leaving it for a while and trying again.

Hi Guys, Im getting a secnond-hand Iphone 4S and im going to use it as an ipod. How will i set it up if i dont want a SIM Card?? And if i use a SIM card for the activation then can i take it out??

Hi Guys, so im getting an iphone 4S as a hamy-down and im gonna use it as an ipod without a SIM Card. Im going to put my backup data on it from my old device. How will I activate it? Can i use my family members SIM (SIM that has been used in an iPhone before) to activate it, then can i take it out and use it without a SIM.
Regards, PulseSol

You can't activate any GSM iPhone without a valid sim card installed. So, yes, you'll need a sim card to activate the phone. The sim itself need not be activated, but it must be valid & present. While you can remove it, after the phone is activated, I recommend you don't. If you ever need to restore the phone, or update the iOS, you'll need a sim card installed to do so.
Make sure whoever is furnishing the phone to you, follows the directions here, before you get the phone:

My itouch 6.4gb has just updated to 5.0.1 and its lost all my calendars. This is the second time in a year I have lost all the calendar. How do I get it back?

I updated the itouch today now no calendar, twice in one year, this is ridiculous, how do I get it back?

You calendar info should also be mirrored on your computer. Use the option to replace all events on the iPod with the info on your computer during the next sync. You can find this option in the info pane, Advanced section.
You can also use the latest backup to restore from, it contains the calendar info as well: iTunes: About iOS backups

Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

I tried to update my ipod 4 gen. and it said "ipod softwarwe server could not be contacted"

I tried to update my ipod 4 generation and it didnt work!!!!n
this popped up
"ipod software server coulnd not be contacted"
i wasn
like what??????
How can i update it now?

Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem

HT5312 Im updating to the new software and it says rescue email is optional but it wont let me proceed without entering an email address

Trying to update to 7 operating system and its asking for a rescue email which I dont have. It says its optional but it wont let me proceed with a blank space. If its optional why the problem

Thanks hatstead - I'd rather not change my ID email as we vowed to stop having 10s of different emails and passwords, but keep just 2 or 3 - and (idiotically) they are all @ this domain.
But maybe I'll have to set up a gmail one for this. I'd rather not use personal as it's a company purchase.
Is there a way of just registering a product from within my Apple ID, online?
Thanks!
