HT4623 I tried updating my iphone 5c, but it didn't have enough space and it disabled my iphone. What do I do?

I didn't realize that my iphone has already been updated to that ios 7 thing. I tried to update it so that I could redo all my music selection to make more space for my TV shows on it, but it failed and my iphone 5c was disabled with only a picture of my charger plug and an arrow pointing to the itunes logo. Now that the update was incomplete, my itunes on my computer failed to recognize the device and even when I have taken it out of my computer, the image still stays on my iphone. It won't go away no matter how many times I restart my phone. I need to get it back to normal and get this stupid picture off the screen. How can I fix it?

Sounds like your iPhone is in recovery mode as the update failed. You will now need to restore the iPhone to factory settings with iTunes on a computer. If your iPhone is not being recognised by your computer read one of the articles below based on your computers OS:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X

  • HT1657 I rented a movie on iTunes but I didn't have enough space on my phone.  So I backed up my phone erased my pictures and tried again and now it doesn't show I rented the movie that I paid for.

    When I realized I didn't have space I backed up my phone and erased all the pictures on it to make room.  When I went in to try to download the rental it wasn't there anymore.

    Hello Chasa11,
    It sounds like you paid for a rental but there was not enough space to download it, and after clearing some space you are unable to download it. If it is not appearing in the Rentals Tab of the Videos app I would check to see if you can resume the download in the iTunes Store app:
    If your download was interrupted using your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    From the Home screen, tap the iTunes app.
    For iPhone or iPod touch, tap More > Downloads. For iPad, tap Downloads.
    Enter your account name and password if prompted.
    Tap the blue download arrow to resume.

  • I have an ipod touch but i don't have enough memory and 0I get an upgrade soon for my phone and i want the iphone but the thing is, can i have an ipod touch and an iphone on the same itunes account like can i use my money on my ipod account for my iphone

    Your iPhone and iPod can share the same iTunes account.  Apps can be freely shared and used by one or both devices.  You can't use money in your iTunes account to pay for your phone, but purchased apps can be used by both the iPod and iPhone.

  • Okay so my 64G iPhone 4S was stolen about a year and a half ago, it was backed up to my computer and I got a new iPhone but it's only 32G so I didn't have enough space to back it up as my old phone, so how do I get all my memory on my old phone back?

    Okay so my 64G iPhone 4S was stolen about a year and a half ago, it was backed up to my computer and I had used around 50G. I got a new iPhone a year ago but it's only 32G so I didn't have enough space to back it up as my old phone, so how do I get all my memory on my old phone back without having to get a 64G phone? Thanks

    No, there is no way to put more content then there is capacity for on the device.  As wjosten mentioned, you might be able to edit that backup to remove things to reduce it in size where you could then restore it to the new device, but obviously, everything that you had on the old iPhone will never fit on the new one.
    No matter what you do, you are going to end up with less content on the new device then on the old one - there is no way around that fact other than returning the 32GB iPhone and getting a 64GB one.  A gigabyte of data is a gigabyte of data, regardless of device, and will require a gigabyte of storage again, regardless of device.

  • I rented a short film on iTunes but didn't have enough space for the HD version I paid for. I was unable to download it in SD for whatever reason and cannot seem to download my purchase on my desktop iTunes. Am I missing something?

    I rented a short film on iTunes but didn't have enough space for the HD version I paid for. I was unable to download it in OR convert it to SD for whatever reason and cannot seem to download my purchase on my desktop iTunes. Am I missing something?

    When you purchase an HD movie or show, in most cases the SD copy can be downloaded from your purchases area in iTunes. On the main iTunes Store page, go to Purchases under the Quick Links and then select Movies or TV shows as appropraite. Click the "Not On This Computer" button. Uncheck the "Download HD when available" box and you should then see the SD copies of the movies/shows and be able to download them.
    Note that with digital copies from a Blu-Ray or DVD, if it comes with an HD copy, you normally cannot get the SD copy as well and have to purchase it separately if you want it.
    Regards.

  • HT201413 i tryed to restore my phone but it turns of during the process and an error happens so what should i do

    i tryed to restore my phone but it turn off during the process and an error happens so should i do ?

    Hello there, VladlsSwag.
    The following Knowledge Base article provides some steps for troubleshooting your issue:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
    Particularly:
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • I have the so called white screen of death. I am able to get into OS X Utility. I have verified disk and disk is ok. I am trying to reinstall Maverick, but i don't have enough space. Dilemma is i cannot get onto my computer to delete data for more space.

    I have the white screen of death, but am able to get into OS X utilitites. I have verifed disk and it's ok. I am trying to reinstall mavericks, but i don't have enough disk space. Dilemma is i can't get onto computer to delete files to create space.
    Any suggestions?

    Upgrade iPhoto:
    Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
    If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
    Install the App from the App Store.
    Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928
    One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
    iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

  • I rented a movie on my iPhone 4, and it didn't have enough space to download the rest. It won't let me delete it cause it still wants to finish downloading, and I can't find it through itunes. Am I missing something? Please help.

  • When I try to get an update for fifa13 it says I don't have enough space. I need 1.3 GB and I have 2.1 GB

    Why won't it let me download something I have space for?

    the game installed is 1.3 but the phones needs to download it, and after that install it so you will need 1.3gb+ the installation files... usually it's about the same size so make about 3gb of space and it will work just fine

  • HT4623 After ios7 update can't send or receive emails.  Have turned off and on, hVe rebooted, have deleted account and  adding as new.  Now what?

    Upgraded to ios7 on iPad 2. Now can't send or receive mail (outlook).
    I tried starting and restarting. I tried rebooting.  I tried deleting mail account and adding in again.  I
    Now what do I do?

    I think I have solved this problem on m iPad2 by:
    1.  Reinstalling my email account.
    2.  Changing the settings on my PC to stop it from deleting my email from the server before my iPad could load them.
    My PC uses Windows Air Mail.   I made no known changes to my PC from the time I was running iOS6 to the installation of iOS7 ???   MS did come out with several updates this week?? 
    3.  In the same time frame when I was scrolling through web pages the Control Bar popped up every third stroke.  It is very easy to change the setting of the Wy Fi setting from On to Off while deleting the unwanted Control Panel without any indication.  This means that the Wy Fi must be constantly checked to make sure that is ON???
    The three problems at the same time have made this the worst mess to fix in 12 years of internet use.   The fix has lasted for about 8 hours at this point, Tomorrow will tell.

  • A while ago I wanted to download/buy an album on my iPhone 4 but I didnt have enough space so I deleted some stuff and downloaded the album. well ever since then my other music won't play, only that one album will play and none of my other music will play

    a while ago I wanted to buy an album but I didn't have enough space on my phone, (iPhone 4) so I deleted some things off my phone and downloaded the album. well ever since then all my other music won't play, only that one album will play. I thought it was because I havent been able to get the software update on my phone but I don't have enough space for that either. I deleted almost all my photos, all my apps, i deleted almost all the info that is on the apps that you can't delete, but it says I have too much music and I only have 45 songs!!!!!!!! and I don't want to delete them because that's what I'm trying to listen to but I can't because of whatever reason. PLEASE HELP!!

    1, you can't at the moment, though with iOS 5 in the Autumn, from http://www.apple.com/ios/ios5/features.html#photos :
    Even organize your photos in albums — right on your device
    2, by removing it from you synced from and re-syncing. Only photos taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad (either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view)
    3, the location of the photos that you synced to the iPad should be listed on the iPad's Photos tab when connected to your computer's iTunes.
    4, you can copy the photos from your iPad to your computer : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 . You should also be able to delete them from the iPad as part of the transfer process to your computer, and it's then your choice whether to add them to your sync photo list so as to copy them back to the iPad. Copying them to your computer would allow you to organise them into folders and therefore be able to sync them back into separate albums.
    5, I don't use Dropbox either. There are some third-party browser apps in the iTunes App Store that allow you to download pages so that you can view them when offline e.g. Atomic Web (the whole page is saved within Atomic Web, it doesn't place a photo into the Photos app)
    6, deleting content should help. If you remove an app from your iPad then you also remove the content that it's got on the iPad - so if you then decide to reinstall it back onto the iPad then you will need to manually add back any content that you want in it. None of the Apple built-in apps (including Photos) can be removed from the iPad

  • I rented a movie with my ipad but don't have enough space to download, what do i do?

    I rented an iTunes movie using my iPad but I didn't have enough space to download it.  I thought I'd be able to jump over to my MacBook and do it instead but the movie doesn't show up in the "purchased" area.  What can I do?

    Delete something from the ipad so that you have room.
