HT4623 iphone4 upgrade to ios7 now need to restore

Help! I updated to ios7, my phone has itunes symbol and cable pic. Online I saw that I needed to connect to itunes but I never synced to my desktop. Stopped at Verizon and was told to install itunes, plug in and it will work. On itunes I get the error that it recognizes a phone in recovery mode and must restore befor using itunes. I have no idea how to restore a phone that is locked with the itunes logo and pic of cable.

Check for hardware issues
Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the alert when you update or restore, contact Apple support.

If you've not started the new computer yet, after you've started it you'll answer a few questions and then be asked whether you want to restore the computer. If you answer yes you'll be asked the source. Choose hard drive - make sure the TimeMachine drive is plugged in. Choose the TM drive from the list and let it go. It will take a while.
If you've already started the computer look for Migration Assistant in the Utilities folder. You'll be asked the same question about the source. Follow the instructions above.

HT201269 I am setting up an iPhone 5. I selected "set up as a new phone" but now need to restore from iTunes back up. How do I access the appropriate screen in the iPhone 5 which I am setting up?

The phone answered this for me - when I connected the iPhone5 to my computer it gave me a choice which included "restore from backup". Problem solved

IPhone4 Upgraded to IOS 7.1.2. Photos associated with Contacts now display as thumbnail pictures when receiving calls . How do I enlarge display.

You weren't the only one that wanted the full screen photos back. There were a lot of complaints and they are back in iOS 8 but that doesn't help you with iOS 7.1.2 unfortunately.

HT4623 Just upgraded to iOS7 on IPhone and ITunes Stores crashes.....how can i fix this?

Just upgraded to iOS7.02 and ITunes crashes. How can I fix this?

Hi leslie,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
To address this issue, I would suggest restarting and/or resetting the iPhone:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
If that does not resolve the issue, refer to page 146 in the iPhone User Guide to Reset All Settings:
iPhone User Guide for iOS 7

Connect iPhone to iTunes.

If you've already done the "Erase all settings" option in Settings > General > Reset then it is already set up as new.

HT4623 Iphone upgrade to ios7.1

I am trying to upgrade to the ios7.1, it says I need more space s oI bought icloud storage and it is still not working, I have 1.6 space but I need 1.8 how do I sort this out?

iCloud storage will not help
The upgrade requires space on the iPhone to download and install
You can try to do the upgrade with Itunes on your computer which will decrease the amount of storage required
Or delete enougn data from the iPhone to give you the required space

Upgrade to Ios7, now getting duplicate messages

My daughter upgraded her iPhone 4 to Ios7. We do share the same Apple ID. Now, when we are using iMessage, we get copies of each other's messages and my phone continues to send my response as a separate messages to my phone. I did get a message from Apple yesterday that said that my Apple ID was used to sign into Facetime We have always shared the same id, but with this upgrade, we seem to have all sorts of quirky issues. any thoughts?
Thanks

I'm sorry, but the system was never designed to be used by more than one person.
Apple ties everything you purchase to your Apple Id.
Right from day 1 you should have created a seperate ID for your child. Then anything you gifted to them, or gave them gift cards to use on their own, would be forever tied to their Apple Id.
Nice and easy.
All you can do now is create a new ID for them here: https://appleid.apple.com
And then either gift them their songs (still a new purchase), or let them purchase all new ones with your credit card or gift cards.
You can try caling Apple customer support to see if they will split the purchases to a new account. Good luck.

Upgraded to ios7 now bluetooth not working

Hi - I upgraded my iphone 4s to IOS7 yesterday and everything seems to be working fine apart from the bluetooth. I have been using the iphone with my car stereo for over a year without a problem - now it just keeps searching and doesn't actually see the device. Same for a Bose bluetooth speaker I have just got - my Samsung Note connects over bluetooth no problem but the iphone just keeps searching. Anyone else with this problem and maybe a fix? Thanks!

Win 8.1: Reset vs Install on partitioned drive (XP- upgrade 8- upgrade 8.1) now need clean install

This is a little complicated.
I have a Thinkpad T-60 (4GB) and a T-61p (8GB)
Both machines have SATA drives partitioned in 3 (System, Images, Data)
Originally, both had XP (the T-61p was RAM upgraded to 8 GB before upgrade (remember the $50 early-bird special?)
I upgraded the T60 without problem (as I recall).
I had to get the 64-bit physical upgrade as you could only download the version you already had (32-bit; remember that disaster?) for the T-61p.
Figuring I had 4 GB on the T-60, I used 64 bit as well, ending up with only 3 GB active. I take it this was a waste and should have just used the 32-bit, right?
I clean installed (as I recall) 8.1 using a generic 8 key (right?) and then an 8.1 key (right?, or is that an 8 key that will still activate 8.1?)
So here it is 3 years later +/- and both 8.1 installs are pretty trashed so...
I downloaded both the 8.1 32-bit and 64-bit .iso's
I have my serial #'s
I tried a Reset on my Server last night (whole disk, no partitions) - it worked, and gave me an option to wipe all disks, or just the C: system disk (which I did, others intact). It is fine, all settings gone, no trash.
Now the question is what will happen with my partitioned drives. I want a clean install on the C: partition, and D: and E: left alone.
Will Reset trash all the partitions and load the entire disk? (NOT what I want) .. or ..
Should I use the Install option? (which I assume will go through the partition manager) and allow me to clean install on C: only.
Lastly, if I have read correctly, there is no point in putting 64-bit on the T-60 (4 GB) as all you end up is 3 GB active anyway, so I should go back to 32-bit and avoid the 64-bit headaches?
Thanks!!!

Hello qudrcps,
About the ThinkPad T-60 can’t only recognize 3GB ram, please take a look the follow thread.
http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/T61-and-prior-T-series-ThinkPad/T60P-Windows-7-64-bit-only-using-3-GB-of-RAM/td-p/377623
Intel Chipsets 945GM and 945PM do not support more than 3GB system memory (RAM), even when a 64-bit operating system is installed.
Please contact the manufacturer to confirm if the laptop support 4GB ram.

What do you mean about the physical disks 0,1? Do you have several disks?

Line Upgrade - do I now need a Version 2.00 Hub ?

We have the BT Employee package and have had it for some years. We also still have the Version 1.0 Hub which is becoming a little flakey and we received an email the other day to say our line is to be upgraded this week. I've seen some comments about the Version 1.0 hub not coping with upgraded lines so just wondered whether we need to upgrade the Hub too ?

Hi Sumdumgi,
Thanks for the post and welcome to the forum.
Version 1.0 of the BT Home hub should work fine with an ADSL 2 connection. If you are having problem with this router then please drop me an email to [email protected], include your BT account details and the link to this thread.
Cheers

Upgraded to Yosemite, now need to upgrade iPhoto. Should I leave external hard drive plugged in during update so that software is "compatible"?

I upgraded to Yosemite after having not updated my software since purchasing my iMac about 5 years ago. (I know, bad...) I have an external hard drive that has 20,000 pics on it and I need to know if I should leave it plugged in during the update. I'm afraid if I do, something will happen to my pics. But at the same time, I'm wondering if I unplug it, will the new iPhoto recognize the "old" software and be able to open up the pics on my external hard drive? I know this can be a problem because I tried opening my EHD on my neighbors computer and our iPhoto versions were different and it wouldn't open on hers. Thank you in advance for you help!

When I go to the EHD and try to open it that way, it says the iPhoto library must be updated. Should I just let it update that as well? People have told me to copy my pics to the EHD and store in a safe place, but will I have to get it out and update it everytime I do an update so that the software will be compatible?
Before you let iPhoto update the iPhoto library make a backup copy of your iPhoto Library. Updating a large library can take a long time, and if something should interrupt this update, the library may be left in a inconsistent state. It is much safer to have a backup you can revert to, just in case.
But at the same time, I'm wondering if I unplug it, will the new iPhoto recognize the "old" software and be able to open up the pics on my external hard drive?
Are the "Pics" on your external drive your iPhoto Library? Or simply folders with image files?
If your iPhoto library is on that drive, what is the filesystem of this external drive?

Upgrade to iOS4, now needs Restored but wont let me restore! (Err 21?)

Hi there,
I hope someone can help as the Apple line is closed and I am travelling with my 7 week old son to Ireland tomorrow and at present have no phone!
I started to Sync my iPhone 3GS as usual and was asked to update to iOS4. No problem. Downloaded then iTunes started to do its thing with my iPhone. A few mins later an error message arrived that a duplicate file existed.
Tried to sync again but this time it would only let me press Restore. In my summary page on iTunes all note of my serial number, phone number etc were coming up as N/A.
On pressing restore, it tries extracting software, verifying with Apple, prepares ihone to restore then says:
The iPhone "iPhone" could not be restored. An unknown error ocurred(21).
From here it just takes me to a link saying update itunes if necessary, restart pc etc. baasically your usual options which have not helped.
I travel in 10 hours, cannot get to an Apple store before this and will have to fly without a phone to another country. Can anyone help with this problem? Many thanks

Maybe try this. Check this thread or search with keyword "duplicate file" under iphone.
