I Phone 3GS wont work :/ help please :)

Hi, my I phone 3gs showed that i need to download the latest software update, so i tried to download it, my phone crashed, so tried to restart, and now its just switching on showing the apple logo and switching off and then repeating the process, what can i do ?.. please help..

Your phone has entered recovery mode.  You will need to connect it to a computer with iTunes and restore it to factory settings.  Hopefully you have a backup (either iTunes or iCloud) to restore from.

  • Safari 2.0.4 with upgrade to 10.4.11 wont work, help, please

    I am just beside myself. Safari wont work. I have broadband and all is well there, I've run disk warrior, all is well there. I've run disk first aid to check and verify disk. All well there. I upgraded to OS 10.4.11 from Upgrade on my g5, and safari wont load its face page; it just hangs pale blue highlight over half of this phrase "Go to this address."
    I have tried everything I know. I am just so disappointed in apple. So not understanding what to do. I am not computer saavy and this is such a disaster; this is my computer for my work; I'm a work at home mom.
    Please can anyone help me? I read people saying third party things, but I do not know what they mean or what those 3rd party things are by name.
    I'm sorry to go and on, I am just so upset, and could kick myself for being so naive about thinking oh, a nice upgrade, no problem
    sigh
    sincerely

  • All Applications quitting unexpectedly or wont work - help please!

    Every application I try to open (or at least those that communicate in some way with the internet, I think) quits unexpectedly or simply doesnt work and I have to force quit.
    Most will close with a problem report. With Safari, I have to force the quit.
    Those applications that quit unexpectedly all have the same message under 'Application Specific Information' which is:
    'Terminating app due to uncauht exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason '-[NSCFArray length]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x166678820'
    I know its a long shot, but does anyone know how to help with this?

    How much hard drive space do you have?
    Check Software Update to make sure you have installed all the latest Apple updates.
    Disconnect all peripherals from your computer. Boot from your install disc & run _*Repair Disk*_ from the utility menu. To use the Install Mac OS X disc, insert the disc, and restart your computer while holding down the C key as it starts up.
    Select your language.
    Once on the desktop, select Utility in the menu bar.
    Select *Disk Utility.*
    Select the disk or volume in the list of disks and volumes, and then click *First Aid.*
    Click _*Repair Disk.*_
    Restart your computer when done.
    Repair permissions after you reach the desktop-http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25751 and restart your computer when done.

  • My menu bars go invisible and wont work, Help please?

    Ok, the problem is that the menu bar on the top of the screen, you know where it says "file" "Edit" "Image" etc. will not work. When I click on "file" the window that opens basically becomes see through and I'm not able to click on anything like "save". My main concern is my Photoshop as I have work to do in it, but the same thing happens with my Adobe Audition, Reader, and basically every other Adobe program. I'm really in a pickle here as I have to turn in 2 canvases by the end of today. Can someone please me fix this?
    Thanks in advance.

    Sounds like a popssible display driver and/or resource problem.
    What version of Photoshop are you running?
    What operating system and video card do you have?
    Have you rebooted, and does the problem recur after?
    Is this issue reproducible or intermmittent?
    Do you have any 3rd party plug-ins installed?

  • My itunes app updates wont work, help please?

    HI, i recently created a new apple ID due to my old one being disabled. I have quite a few much needed updates, which include paid and nonpaid items. (irrelevent?) My new ID works in all feilds except updates. When the verification box pops up it uses my old email as my username and I cannot find out how to change that in order to update my apps. The iTunes store itself shows that it is using my new ID, how can I change the username in my verification box inorder to update?
    *may I add that I have tried turning on and off my iPhone, and resetting my ID in my computer too.*

    Make sure Norton has all the most recent updates. Then go into Norton, delete iTunes from the allowed programs, and save the Norton settings and close Norton.
    Then go back into Norton and add iTunes like it is a new program, and save the settings.
    This has worked for lots of folks.

    - Have you tried the troubleshooting here:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    - You can try disabling the camer notification

    - Do you have any camera, scanner or similar software installed?  That may prevent iTunes from seeing the iPod.

    Ok. You don't have to select your number. Just check your email under your "grey" number and then at the bottom of this page you will see the option "Start new conversations from". Select your number.

    If a phone is sold from one friend to another and wants to use it on a different carrier the friend can contact the carrier it was sold by to request it unlocked.  I know AT&T, Verizon, and Sprint will give you the steps to unlock it as long as the original contract it was bought under has been completed.  eBay/Craigslist is really not the best place to try to get "unlocked phones" from, if it turns out the phone isn't unlocked then I'm really sorry you got stuck with that one and as stevejobsfan said above I would report them immediately and see if you can recover your money.  I sell phones for a living and this happens a lot
