HT4623 I updated my Iphone 4 wirelessly to iOS 7.0.3 and it now wont restore
i recently updated my iPhone 4 via wifi to the latest iOS, as requested by Apple when they send out the updates! I did it, then it just rebooted and said plug into iTunes. So i did that, then it said I had to restore my phone, so I lost everything...then it said it couldnt do that, so I'm left now with a phone that just has a pic of a USB cable, an arrow and iTunes on it.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
I have the latest version of iTunes and am working on a Mac

i've updated my iphone 4 (gsm) to ios 6.0.1 and after that it's stuck in recovery mode (itunes logo cable), i tried many solutions but nothing works, did any one has an idea about this , thank you
I should add that this has never been Jailbroken. I keep reading that a lot of times this is the case for a jail broken phone.
I have also gone through the not very helpfull steps on apples site to fix this.. It is not a security issue since i dont have an antivirus or any 3rd party software for my computer. -
After updating my iphone through iTunes I cant open it. It ask me to restore my phone. How can I open it without restoring ?
Go into your iTunes preferences and select devices (on a Mac it's iTunes > Preferences > Devices; on PC it's Edit > Preferences > Devices). This will show you any and all iTunes backups you have, including your phone. If you don't see any backups, then you don't have one in iTunes.
With iCloud, if you've got a backup you can view it using an iOS device that's logged in with your iCloud (apple ID) account. You go into Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage and see if your phone is listed there. If it is, then you have a backup for it. You can click on it to see how large the backup is and what is backed up.
Don't be afraid to restore it. The worst that can happen is that you lose data. If you have a backup, then you can get that data back. If not, then you will have to start over, but your phone will still work. -
HT4623 I updated my iPhone to the new iOs 7 and I cannot log into the cloud????
I updated my iPhone 5 to the new iOS7 and the phone keeps asking me to log into my iCloud account. but when I do, a pop up window asks to Review Terms and I select View Tems vs. the Not Now button and nothing happens. I have turned the phone off and back on and the same thing happens. It asks me to go to Settings and when I do, the iCloud icon is grayed out. I cannot seem to log into the cloud. HELP???
I don't recall where, but if you hunt, you will be able to find an "accept" button. I think you also need to check a box that says something like "I have read and agree ..."
Yes, it requires a careful search. -

I have the latest iTunes, but it seems to get stuck on the back up stage; its not that it can't back up as it happens every time I connect, but when I click upgrade to ios 6, then it suddenly takes a long time and eventually just doesn't go anywhere. even left it running overnight but didn't happen. Just doesn't take the next step of uploading the operating system. help would be greatly appreciated, have been trying to do this for two days now

HT6147 I updated my iphone 4 to the iOS 7.0.6 and it no longer turns on. Will this be resolved?
I am wondering what I can do to get my phone working again. Had I known this would occur, I would have skipped the update and learned to deal with the glaring notification.
And that's weird because the update worked completely fine with my iPad. :( I'm no where near a computer with iTunes.. But thank you though.

Are the charger nd cable original Apple parts or third-party? There have been a lot of problems ith third party cables and chargers since iOS 7 - checks for compatibility with Apple specs.
Try another charger and cable to see if that makes a difference. -
HT4623 Can I still update my iPhone 3GS wirelessly?
How do I update my iPhone 3GS wirelessly. There's no "software update" in settings
The option to update without the computer (Over the air) was made available with iOS 5. If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
Also read the instructions from the section entitled "Update your device using iTunes" at the link below.

Information regarding transferring purchases from your iDevice to iTunes on your syncing computer can be found at the link below.

when i trying to update my iphone 5 to latest ios 7.04 always appeared error when the update almost done about 20 to 30 minutes
Hello micojen1920
If you are having an issue with updating your iPhone, try it through a different method like in iTunes or through software update on your iPhone in settings. If that does not work then follow the steps in the article below to force a restore on your iPhone. Make sure to back up first and you can always restore from that back up once your iPhone is up to date. The second article will assist you with the back up and restore process.
