Why did I update my ios 6 through wifi only for it to ask me to connect to itunes and now its making me restore it? Will I lose everything?
It's in recovery mode. You don't have a choice. Anything that was on the phone is already gone. If you didn't back it up, there is no way to recover it.

i need help!??? i just tried to update my ipod and now its making me restore it on itunes and it wont complete the restoring process. Its giving the warning that the updated software server couldn't be reached. Can anybody help????
Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem -
Attempted to download new ios 8.2 software, I can't use my phone now as it is saying connect to iTunes?! So I connected to iTunes and it isn't doing ANYTHING.
THIS IS CRAZY!!! Apple - GET YOUR CRAP TOGETHER!! Don't release an update if it isn't ready!!!!I just had my phone 5c screen replaced and it was working fine until I tried updating it 30 mins later, I was getting error messages and couldn't move past the Apple logo. so when I tried a factory restore I get a message saying It cannot restore or update my phone. Now my phone is stuck on restore mode screen and cannot load anything. I've tried restore on multiple computers and updating to latest itunes versions. Anyone know whats going on?

Help! Just did the Update (ML 10.8.4) after receiving a new HD since mine crashed last week and the shop didn't update it back to Mavricks which I had previously done...and now my Mac won't let me past the log in screen even with correct password entered. It just spins like I'm logging in and then goes back to the user log in screen. I did the process where I restarted and pressed control S and created a new user and password, but once created same issue and can't get passed that screen.
Super frustrated and any help is appreciated!I have decided to dedicate this thread to the wonderful errors of Lion OSX. Each time I find a huge problem with Lion I will make note of it here.
Today I discovered a new treasure of doggie poop in Lion. No Save As......
I repeat. No Save As. In text editor I couldn't save the file with a new extension. I finally accomplished this oh so majorly difficult task (because we all know how difficult it should be to save a file with a new extension) by pressing duplicate and then saving a copy of the file with a new extension. Yet then I had to delete the first copy and send it to trash. And of course then I have to secure empty trash because if I have to do this the rest of my mac's life I will be taking up a quarter of percentage of space with duplicate files. So this is the real reason they got rid of Save As: so that it would garble up some extra GB on the ole hard disk.
So about 20 minutes of my time were wasted while doing my homework and studying for an exam because I had to look up "how to save a file with a new extension in mac Lion" and then wasted time sitting here and ranting on this forum until someone over at Apple wakes up from their OSX-coma.
are you freaking kidding me Apple? I mean REALLY?!!!! who the heck designed this?!!! I want to know. I want his or her name and I want to sit down with them and have a long chat. and then I'd probably splash cold water on their face to wake them up.
I am starting to believe that Apple is Satan. -

Try:
- Another cable
- 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.
- Try on another computer
- 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 was in school earlier today and noticed that my iphone 4 needed an update, so started the update then after like 2 mintues my phone turns off and when i tried to turn it back on it told me to connect to itunes. Now im connected and it tells me i must restore my phone...And i really dont want to lose my pictures and stuff like that so someone please tell me what i can do...
Sorry, you have no choice but to restore your phone now. If your data was not backed up before you attempted to update, it is gone.
Next time, backup before you attempt to update. -
after updating to IOS 6, I went out to mow my yard and listen to my music via bluetooth headset as I have done all summer. But to my surprise there was no longer a playlist not one!!!!! so after mowing and listening to one album I tried turning on Match and now I have 2 of every playlist.
I realize that there will be a few glitches when upgrading a new system. I would like to see Apple come up with a simple way to contact Apple to let them know about these new problems. This is only one of them and there are a few more on the iphone and even more on the newest ipad.
for instance I buy 64gb iphones and ipads, because I do not want to stream my photos or music I do not always have access to wifi or cellular. Plus with over 5,000 songs and 15,000 photos it takes to long so I want to store them and us sync to save changes. I have a very advanced setup. with outdoor entertainment around the pool "covered" in the party room, in the house, in the RV outside the RV. The list goes on. I want my picturesand music stored!!!! not all Streamed. when ever we try to stream pictures or music for one of my parties there are freezes and hangups. Not something I like when I have 60- 100 friends over. Storeing all this to a device should be easy when I USB it to my IMAC!!!! also when I take pictures around my party and then the Apple TV fails to keep up streaming I plug the iphone into a source to the stereo's and the **** thing starts sending all my photo stream through the wifi to the computer and now it will not play music or photos until it is finished. Here I go again with all these guest saying I thought you said apple was better!!!!! we need to be able to select when we want sync to happen to prevent this with out turning off icoud or phot stream.I am back with an update. I turned off Match on both the ipad and the iphone 5. By doing so I was able to sync my Iphone and ipad to itunes and store the music on my devices rather than the slow streaming. So far this has fixed my problems with the iphone I have all my music, playlist, most of the album art and so on. But the ipad is a different story. I have the music and artist but not one playlist I am sure Apple will have an upgrade soon that will address these issues they are usually very good about this.
Now have any of you experienced another problem that has existed as long as I have used faces in Aperture.
I have over 200 faces and they are organized a-z problem is I have this going on A-Z folowed by a few that start over A-Z followed by another few A-Z and again a 4th time A-Z. Imagine how difficult it is while I am showing someone the great features of my iphone, ipad and imac. Which I do talk highly of all the time. But how do I explain that even though their name starts with a or b or what ever they are not important enough to me to be in the first list of A-Z or even the 2nd or 3rd list of A-Z someohow they are in the 4th section of the list!!!!
I have managed to get the Imac to fix this but for some reason the IOS devices do not. Any ideas?
Thanks Al -

I am at a lost why my iPad cannot connect to iTune store and Apple Store.
This has occurred when I did updating to os 6.1.3. During the update, the installation only reach around 70% complete
When suddenly it says Internet connection was lost. When I check the Internet is quite ok and when I tried to update
It says cannot connect to iTune store. It has been like that since then, mean cannot connect to iTune ....
Can somebody help?Reboot your router. Unplug it for about 30 seconds and then plug it in again.
Then restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
If that doesn't work - Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
If still no luck - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. -

I tried to update my ipod touch software by syncing with itunes and it put the ipod into "recovery mode". Seems like the only option is to restore? Is there a way to get it out of recovery mode?
No.
Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
To minimise loss... Connect to iTunes on the computer you Usually Sync with and Restore from the most recent Backup...

One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
Power up
Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF

It is not related to a specific iOS update. It just happens occasionally to iOS devices. -
How can I fix this?
I have this same problem. Visited 2 ATT tech supports, Apple Store, Tech support, other Apple tech support persons. Changed SiM card twice. Did multiple resets, full restore, IOS 8.0.2. Wifi works fine. Safari says it can not connect to server (WiFi off). Hotspot continuously trying to connect. Can't get to ATT ADN info. No one has seen this. They believe the phone is damaged but I believe this is a IOS 8.0.2 BUG.
I did 3 hour google search in multiple forums trying to see if someone has seen this.
Various similar scenarios but all were corrected by doing Network Reset. This does not work.
So far have spent 18 hours working this and finally decided to go to Iphone 4 using SIM adapter.
Had to go to Iphone 4 and set it up for now.
Anyone else??? -
What do I do next?
Start by providing specifics of what is occurring (including any error messages that are occurring) when attempting to restore the device. That is if help is actually desired.
