HT4528 I need to restore my phone
Embarrasingly I have locked myself out of my phone and it is now disabled. It's telling me to restore through iTunes. I'm not sure how to do that and I'm looking for help
I might be too late to attempt and save my pictures but I have never backed up my phone in the cloud. How do I do it? I really would like to try to save all my sweet pictures
I'm so frustrated with myself and the situation.

My iPhone won't restore
You need to do exactly as it says and restore your iphone.
That is what it means by "
iTunes cannot read the contents of the iPhone “Josh's iPhone”. Go to the Summary tab in iPhone preferences and click Restore to restore this iPhone to factory settings."
It is not jerking you around. It is telling you exactly what to do. -
I tried to update my iPhone 4S but I now keep getting an error saying I need to restore my phone before it can be used because it's in recovery mode! But if I restore it I lose all my media and data and I don't want to do that! Is there anything I can do?? Somone please help, i'm freaking out over here!
Anything that was on the phone is already gone. You have no choice but to restore. If you were backing up and syncing the phone on a regular basis, you should be able to restore your backup with minimal data loss.

I did the ios6 software update on my iphone and it did not complete because it said there was an error. It then gave me a message that I needed to restore my phone. When I tried to restore my backup it says it cannot be completed because there is not enough storage. I cant delete anything to make more storage because my phone is not usable because it wont restore. What do I do?
Something in your backup may be corrupt. Try wiping it and setting it up as a new device, then sync your apps, data and media back to it from iTunes. DO NOT resotre from your backup. If the problem is contained in the backup, it will bring it right back again if you restore.

I have contacted at&t and they did what was nessary to unlock my phone was told to backup my phone and did that so know I just need to restore my phone with ituens which ituenes will not let me do cause I get message can not connect to cause of no internet connection wich is not true cause other wise you would not have gotten this
Try restoring the iPhone to factory settings. If you are having difficult restoring, put the iPhone into Recovery Mode and see if that then works:

If not, or if a restore to factory settings does not fix the problem, then your iPhone may have a hardware problem. You can only get the iPhone serviced by Apple in Canada, so you will have to take the iPhone there or send it to someone you know in Canada who can get the iPhone serviced and send it back to you. The only option for getting service in Pakistan would be to pay some unauthorized repair shop to attempt a repair, after which Apple will no longer provide any service even in Canada.

My iphone 3gs says I need to restore my phone with itunes. when i connect the phone it says i need to unlock the phone which i cannont due because of the caution on the phone. How do i fix this?
Hold down the power button and home button at the same time until the phone powers on, shuts back off, powers on again and continue to hold it until it shows the itunes logo to plug in to itunes. This should allow you to restore without unlocking it.

No, sorry... did not happen becasue no such model exists.
If the device is in recovery mode, any data on it is already lost.
The only options are:
Restore the device to get it functional.
Enjoy the paper weight.
For what reason did you attempt to update the device without first ensuring that your data was safe, meaning backing up the device and copying important pictures/videos taken with the device to a computer? -

I can't figure out what is taking up 17.01 GB of memory on my IPhone 5. I have read in these forums that I should restore my IPhone to its original settings, but I am afraid if I do that I will lose all my stuff. I did back my phone up in iCloud by plugging it into my laptop, but I still don't feel i know what Im doing is 100% correct. Can anyone guide me along? I would greatly appreciate the help.
Yes, when you restore as new everything will be wipe from your phone.
You will need to sync with itunes http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1386 to get back your apps/music and contacts IF you sync with a program in itunes.
I suggest you import your pics to your computer http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 then after you restore your phone, you can sync it back to your phone. -
My iphone 4s ringtones are all the same and there is no real volume from the phone. It will not let me play videos and my alarm tune does not go off. I have been advised to restore my phone but need to back up all my contacts telephone numbers first. How do I do this?

my i 5 phone shows that i need to plug into itunes but when i do it says i need to remove my phone and rest it but how do i do that?
This is a bad situation. Your iPhone is in a state which cannot be backed up, and the Restore will return iPhone to factory specs erasing it. You need to Restore your iPhone to get it working again. If you were experiencing problems before, maybe your iPhone is damaged. If still faulty, and you have Warranty or AppleCare take iPhone to Apple for evaluation. If no coverage and still faulty it may be time for new phone.
