You need to connect the phone to your computer's iTunes, and that should recognise the phone and let you reset it back to factory defaults - you can then restore/resync your content to it.

Hello TommyElMorte,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
I recommend conncting the iPhone to the wall charger that it came with, and then reset it.
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

If your device stops responding, you can reset it by pressing and holding both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
All the very best,

I was given an iPhone 3G, reset it, and now have picture which I believe is telling me to connect to iTunes. I did but nothing shows on the phone. I know I need iOS 4.2 but don't know how to get it.

I was given an iPhone 3G, reset it, and now have picture which I believe indicates I should connect to my computer and iTunes. Have done so, clicked download which was done, but nothing changes on the phone. I know I can only upgrade to ios 4.2 but how do I do this?

Hello challenged37,
From what you describe it sounds like the phone is in recovery mode. Try connecting the phone to the wall charger that it came with, and perform a reset then connect it to iTunes again and try:
Reset
You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can't restart it.
To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
From: Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Here is some additional info on what to do if the device still doesnt show in iTunes from the article named:
iOS: Unable to update or restore
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
If you see the Connect to iTunes screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, follow these troubleshooting steps if you're using a Mac, or these steps for Windows computers.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

I accidently locked myself out of my Ipod, it said connect to ITunes so I did but nothing is happening and I don't know what to do! HELP!!!!!

Happened over Christmas holidays, I thought my sister knew my passcode(which she didn't) but then I never had chance to practice it and I forgot it!! HELP PLEASE!!!!!

You need to connct the iPod to its syncing computer and restore via iTunes on th comp;uter. If iTunes asks for the passcode and you can't enter the passcode or if yu do not have the syncing computer, place the iPOd in recovery mode and then restore. For recovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
For how to restore see:
iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software

Hi Kevin Gauthereau,
Welcome to the Support Communities! If you don't have access to the original computer that you use to sync to iTunes, you can backup your iPad to iCloud and update it wirelessly. This article will explain how:
iCloud: Back up your iOS device to iCloud

You can import your pictures to your computer at any time as a second backup. Here's how:

Your iPhone is in recovery mode. Do the following to get it out of recovery mode.
Plug your iPhone into your computer with iTunes open make sure iTunes recognizes the iPhone in recovery mode.
Hold down the power button and the home button to do a hard reset and shut it off
Keep your finger on the Home button ONLY and unplug the iPhone from the cable
Release the Home button and allow the iPhone to power back on which may take a few minutes
The iPhone will return to its prior format
Hope that helps!

First see if placing the iPod in Recovery Mode will allow a restore.
Next try DFU mode and restore.

If not successful then time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. You are not alone with this problem.

Since upgrading to Windows 8.1, iTunes no longer recognizes my iPhone or iPad. I tried to reinstall iTunes. That did not address my problem. Any suggetions on what I should do?
