HT5163 I tried to update my iPhone and locked it up.
I connected my iPhone to iTunes and it told me that I needed to update it. So I said to go ahead and update. Well, I received an error message and iTunes no longer recognizes my phone. So I can't eject it, can't find it. The phone shows on the screen that it's still connected to iTunes but it does not show that on the iTunes.
Any suggestions on how to reset the phone or something so I get my phone back?
Whilst plugged into itunes, Hold down the power (top button) and the home button (the round one at the bottom) for a few seconds together until it forces a shut down, dont hold too long or it will reboot. after its shut down wait around 20-30 seconds then do the same again but this time count to about ten secs then release the top button (power) but keep holding the home (bottom) button for around 8-10 secs, you should here ur pc/iphone connect to each other with that usb detection sound, this should place ur phore into recovery or DFU mode which will enable you to restore ur phone or restore from backup etc.
