Hi Cjroyle,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
From your post I understand that your iPhone will not boot past the Apple logo on the screen.  To troubleshoot this issue I'd like you to please follow the steps in the article below.

Take care,

  • IPhone is not being recognised by iTunes and won't sync

    A few days my iPhone randomly froze so I had to do a hard reset. Then when I plugged it into my laptop and tried to sync it, it said The required file could not be found. I pressed ok and then another box came up with something along the lines of iPhone could not be synced, error -6999.
    So I unplugged and plugged back in and a message came up saying "iTunes cannot read the content of the iPhone. Go to the summary tab in iPhone preferences and click restore to restore this iPhone to its factory settings". So i did this, restored everything to factory and then tried to re-sync with my computer. Then exactly the same error came up as before (file cannot be found, iPhone doesnt sync). And the circle goes on and on and on.
    I've tried restarting, re-installing itunes. I think iTunes is working though because I can still sync my nano with no trouble. Any ideas? Because this is really annoying.
    Cheers, Skiddz

    I'm having the same problem... just got a new iPhone 3GS in addition to the older 3G model. I need to synch them both with home (music, photos, videos etc. master) and work computers (Contacts, Calendar master).
    This worked no problem on the older 3G model, the 3GS synched with my home computer but my work once I get the following message: "iTunes cannot read the content of the iPhone. Go to the summary tab in iPhone preferences and click restore to restore this iPhone to its factory settings".
    I've tried re-starting both iPhone and computer, un-installing and re-installing iTunes / QuickTime / Apple Mobile Device Manager etc.; different USB ports etc. and still the problem exists...
    Please help.

  • Have iphone 4. Got new iHome clock for xmas. Won't fit dock with cover on. Any ideas how to get it to fit without taking case off phone?

    Have an iPhone 4.  Put it in a protective case.  Got iHome clock/docking station for xmas.  Can't set the iPhone in the docking station with the cover on.  Don't want to take the cover off every night if there's a way around it.  Is there such a thing as a small extension to the dock or iPhone to get past the thickness of the case?

    There sure is.  Go to the following link for a dock extender:

    You might also consider an extension cable:

    I'm not looking for any warranty help or something, I just want a diagnosys of my phone's situation....
    My phone is acting as if there was no battery in the phone. When there is no cable plugged, nothing happens. When there is a cable, something happens (not a lot though....).
    Could it be the battery port on the motherboard that's down ?
    PS : I've taken a Genius-bar appointment because I can't stand in that situation for years, so I'm not absolutely looking to gain money and avoid Apple's official help.

  • So I have a tmobile iphone 5s and it's stuck on the white screen with black logo I tried restoring it with iTunes

    MMy phone been stuck in recovery mode tried to restore it nothing worked what can I do its at mobile iphone 5sSo I have a tmobile iphone 5s and it's stuck on the white screen with black logo I tried restoring it with iTunes & iTunes is just telling me errors and my iphone would shut down put a blue screen then go back with the white screen

    Has the phone been unlocked officially? Has the phone been jailbroken in the past? If yes, these could be reasons for the behavior of the phone.

    That quickly!
    Have you read for possible solutions over in the "More Like This" thread over here?----------------------->
    When selecting passwords, make sure it's one that you will NEVER forget AND no one else can figure out. 
    Old school--- > Print it out & keep in a safe place.  A place that ONLY you know about AND never forget.
    New school---> Get a password manager utility.  Highly recommend 1Password which is shareware.  Do a Google search for free password managers.

    You need to force the phone into recovery mode, as described here, & restore it:

    hey guys, im in need of seriously help. i let a friend jailbreak my iphone and now its jus stuck at the apple screen. i tried rebooting it and everything but nothin is working. does anyone have any good advice?

    put the phone in DFU mode (do a search for how to do this) and restore to the latest firmware. you may have to download the firmware from apple and when selecting restore or update in itunes press the shift key and select the firmware.
    Hope this helps

  • I had a shared mobileme account for my work calendar- 4 people sharing call using one set of calendars.  It is on my mac but not on my iphone anymore...just 3 of my calendars went to icloud.  Any idea how to get the calendars from a "family" mobileme?

    I had a group account on mobileme...a family pack that each of us at work had an individual account and we all shared one account in the family.  It kept our work calendar- a schedule telling who is in the office and who is on call.  This is still on my macBook but not on my phone or my iPad.  Any idea how I make my phone show the calendars on my MacBook?  It was there before I went to iCloud.

    If your email account offers a webmail access, I suggest checking the webmail - log in to your account using the webmail access, and I predict you will see all those "unread" emails there and can dispose of them from there.
    This happens because the iPhone that went bad, when reading those emails, did not remove them from your email provider's servier.

  • Iphone is not being recognised on itunes to sync?

    Hi, I have connected my iphone to my computer but it is not being recognised on itunes?can u help?

    I just replaced my 3GS with an iPhone 4 yesterday, and the new phone will not sync with iTunes. It pops up with the following error message whenever I hook it up:
    "The iPhone "iPhone" cannot be used because it requires iTunes version 10.1 or later. Go to www.itunes.com to download the latest version of iTunes."
    I just got this phone from AT&T, and there are no updates available for either my computer or my phone, so they have to have the newest iTunes.
    Also, whenever I plug it in, the new phone does not appear under the "devices" tab on the left like my old one does.
    Thanks in advance for whatever advice you can give me.

  • HT204074 I have a new machine with a previous installation of Itunes, linked to another Apple ID. Even  I authorized the machine to my Apple ID, I can not connecto to the Apple Store. I tried removing Itunes and reinstalling it, but anything changed.

    I have a new machine with a previous installation of Itunes, linked to another Apple ID. Even  I authorized the machine to my Apple ID, I can not connect to the Apple Store. I tried removing Itunes and reinstalling it, but anything changed. I still can not connecto to the Store.
    My previous machine has Itunes Installed, and I deauthorized the machine so I unlinked to my Apple ID, if this is correct.
    Anyway, Dropbox is also not connecting....so I do not know how to make it woek. please help!

    I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
    The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account.  I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there.  On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back.  Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email.  The device is currently useless.
    The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
    Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?

    Do you have a backup of your iPhone?   If so, do a restore and whatever Notes were backed up should reappear.
    You will lose any changes made since that backup though.
