I updated my iPhone 4S last night and it is locked up on a screen with the iTunes emblem and the iPhone cord pointing upwards toward it. When I hook it to the computer, it's telling me that the phone is in recovery and I need to restore it. That will erase everything in my phone. What do I do? I can't use my phone for anything.

Use iTunes on the computer to restore your iPhone. Since the iPhone
is already in recovery, any data that was on the iPhone is gone.

    Sounds like your iPhone was hacked to work with other than
    the original cellular provider and the update relocked the iPhone
    to that provider. You must contact that provider to see if they
    offer unlocking and if you qualify. Only the cellular provider to
    which the iPhone is locked can unlock it.
    What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>Carrier?
    Where/how did you acquire this iPhone? Who is your wireless
    provider?
    Not wise to post your Serial Number in the clear - I have asked
    the hosts to remove it.

    Reset the phone: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go.

  • I have a different iPhone, and now it won't sync with my iTunes.

    I have a different iPhone, and now it won't sync with my iTunes.

    I had an iPhone 3GS, but my husband had a newer one, so he gave me his when he upgraded to the iPhone4. When we uploaded everything, it took it all except my music. Now when I try to download my music from iTunes, it will not sync with it.
    No error messages
    It pops up the box where it asks if you want to view folders, download your pics, etc. There is nothing in the box about music (iTunes).
    I have rebooted my phone and computer. Downloaded the lastest version of iTunes, Deauthorized and reauthorized the phone. Not sure what to do now.

  • I updated my iphone 4s last night to ios6 and now I dont have any emails coming through?

    I updated my iphone 4s last night to ios6 and since then I have had no emails come through, its saying cannot get mail, verify that you have entered the correct account info in mail settngs??

    Your iPhone was probably hacked to unlock it from its original cell carrier. The update to iOS has now removed that hack and the iPhone has locked back to that carrier. Only the carrier to whom the iPhone is locked can unlock it, so you will have to contact that original carrier and ask about their unlocking policies.
    Regards.

    Try restoring from a backup. Connect the iPhone to your computer, launch iTunes. Right or control click the iPhone under Devices in the source list then click: Restore from Backup.

  • My iphone is stuck in recovery mode while doing an automatic upgrade last night. I can't do anything with the phone and now it won't even restore! Help!

    Last night my iphone did an automatic upgrade and when I got up this morning all that was there was the picture of the usb cord and itunes.  When I plugged my phone into my computer and open itunes I got this message: iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes.
    I spent literally all day trying to figure out what to do and finally sucked it up and pushed the restore button in itunes.  I'm not getting this message: The iPhone could not be restored. The device isn't eligible for the requested build.
    What the heck do I need to do in order to have a functioning phone again?!

    Errors 3000-3999 (3004, 3013, 3018, 3164, 3194, and so on): Error codes in the 3000 range generally mean that iTunes cannot contact the update server (gs.apple.com) on ports 80 or 443.
    Update to the latest version of iTunes.
    Verify the computer's date and time are accurate.
    Check that your security or firewall software is not interfering with ports 80 or 443, or with the server gs.apple.com.
    Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
    An entry in your hosts file may be redirecting requests to gs.apple.com (see "Unable to contact the iOS software update server gs.apple.com" above).
    Internet proxy settings can cause this issue. If you are using a proxy, try without using one.
    Test restoring while connected to a known-good network.

  • Tryed to update my ipod touch last night, today it is frozen with the Apple symbol on the screen.

    tryed to update my ipod touch last night, today it is frozen with the Apple symbol on the screen.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • I updated to MacBook pro last night and now safari won't open

    I updated my MacBook Pro last night and since I did this I can not open Safari.  It crashes and sends a report to Apple.  Not tech smart enouh to figure it out can anyone give me simple suggestions?

    Please elaborate on what exactly you mean by it "won't open".
    Do you try to launch it and get an error message from the Finder (for example, something like "This application is damaged and cannot be launched....")? Does an icon for the application ever appear in the Dock when you try to launch it? Does it start to launch and then immediately crashes (Finder will display an "unexpectedly quit" dialog)? Or does it start to launch and never seems to "finish" launching (in other words, it basically hangs and is unresponsive)?
    If the application crashes, please post the contents of the crash log here.
    Otherwise, if the application seems to be hanging, can you, before attempting to launch it, open the Console.app application (it's in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder), and see if anything is reported when you attempt to launch it? If so, please post it here.

    If you've wiped the device remotely then it is no longer associated.
    You could also change the password for your Apple ID.

  • HT204400 I updated my Apple Tv last night and ever since we have been unable to use it. There is a picture of the Music logo saying taht I need to plug in a device but my cables for the ipnoes and Ipads don't seem to fit. Can anyone help me please?

    I updated my Apple TV last night and since then it is asking me to plug it into a device. I have a picture of the Music Logo and a cable needing to be plugged into the back of the Apple TV. however I am unable to do this as none of the cables i have will fit. Can someone please help me?
    Thanks

    The update failed.  It needs to be plugged into a computer with iTunes via a standard USB cable so iTunes can reload its firmware.
