Somebody help!
What happened when you connected your iPhone to your computer while running iTunes on your computer? You should be prompted through the restore process. If it doesn't work try getting your iPhone into Recovery Mode.
If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

I have an iPhone 4 so I downloaded iOS 7.03 but it doesn't installe it says error accured what can I do to make it install
when one download something from the Internet corruption can happen making the data defect
when this happen the computer notice it and don't attempt to install the damaged software on the phone which would damage it
if one try right away to redownload something from the Internet ones isp just give one a copy from their cache (they can't detect if all data in their cache is valid because that would slow everything down)
wait a bit and the cache will be cleared and you will have a new attempt to download and flash your ios device with the update should it prove uncorrupted this time -
I dropped my iphone 4 pretty hard, it cracked (although it already had a few cracks in it) and now the screen is black but sometimes has a background light turn on and then off. Holding the home button and off button at the same time do not work. When I plug it in to charge or to the computer it vibrates every 10 seconds and itunes does not seem to recognize it. It gets really really hot when plugged in (which I don't think is normal). icloud does not recognize it under "find my iphone" either. What could the problem be? I am wondering if dropping it dislodged something inside. if so, what did I dislodge and is it possible to fix this myself?
ThanksSounds like that drop was a critical one, my friend. I would make an appointment at your nearest Apple Retail Store, because you're going to need a replacement. Also as a side note: the reason that the charger is making the phone vibrate over and over is because there is a disconnect somewhere in the charge port of the phone, causing it to plug in and out over and over.

I tried to reset my iPhone (3gs) with deleting all data. When it power off and automatically again on then it is showing Apple logo only. Not restore and startup my phone. iPhone alerming low charge and I tried to charge and not charging.
What I should do now?Something has gone wrong. Turn your phone off, then force it into recovery mode:
Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new. In your case, select "new". -
Im trying to restore my iphone 3gs to its factory setting at the same time updating to a newer version 6.1.2. while restoring, itunes states"We're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activition at this time." i cant open my phone, what does it mean
99.9% of the time, the cause of this issue is the fact the phone was jailbroken/hacked to unlock it for use on networks other than the network the phone was originally locked to. Apple maintains a database of officially unlocked iPhones, and when Apple's servers detect phones such as yours, activation stops & you get the message you got.
So, either get a sim card from the carrier your phone was originally locked to, or get it officially unlocked, because it appears that it was not officially unlocked. -
HT201210 I have got error number 11 on itunes when trying to restore my iphone 3gs, please help.
Please help, I am trying to restore my iphone 3gs, but i keep getting errors like 11 which is not listed in this site and i alos get error 1 and -1. please help.
Did you manage to fix the issue?
I have exactly the same issue as described above : I installed the update 5.1.1 on my iphone 3GS and since then, I can not turn it on anymore. In Itunes, I get an error 37 when I am doing a restauration and it stops.
This error has nothing to do with firewall : I tried to restore the phone on several computers, including in an Apple reseller and it did not work anywhere.
I spent several hours on phone with the hotline from Apple which arrived to the conclusion that it is a hardware issue, but the phone was working perfectly fine until I installed this update! -
I continue to get an error 37 message when trying to restore my iphone 3GS which crashed after trying to upload the last update. Does anyone else have this problem?

HT4972 i tried to update my iphone 3GS with IOS 6 and lost EVERYTHING! Help!
I tried to update my iphone 3GS with IOS6 and the update was incomplete. It then said retry so I did and it synced with my daughters ipod touch causing me to lose ALL of my information. Is there any way to retrieve my previous information or reset my phone to what it was? Unfortunately I dont thing I backed up my contacts, pictures, etc.
If KiltedTim is correct I agree with him. If the phone is not hacked try temporarily disabling your antivirus and firewall that may be blocking access to gs.apple.com. See also this article from Apple: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error3194

Restoring/activating iphone 3gs on the latest ios
kindly advise on what to do as i cant restore or activate my iphone 3gs with the latest update of ios since my itunes is not recognizing my iphone 3gs.
That happened to me.
Simply restore your phone from iTunes, then back up with your saved data.
That should work fine, and that worthless iOS6 will be installed unfortunately. -

This is also an issue that can appear on devices that have been modified in an unauthorized manner (not judging, just saying) -
I am trying to update my iPhone 4 with the jailbreak in it. And why I updated it, it was fine at first. Then it started to turn off and turn on over and over again. What do I do? Is this normal?
When jailbroken, you cannot update the iOS on your device. The only way to fix it is to do a full restore through iTunes. Before you do this make sure you backup your device and everything on it.

My problem is trying to restore my iphone 4s. The icloud password is from a defunct email account through an ISP that I no longer use. I have upgraded to an iphone5s . I want to give the iphone4s to a special needs child that can make good use of it.I am at the point of despair. I can prove where I got the 4s etc. which seems to be a requirement from postings on forums. IT IS BREAKING THIS KIDS HEART AND BREAKING MINE. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP !!
Welcome to the Apple community.
This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID, verify the changes, enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone".
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, verify it once again, delete the iCloud account from your device and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

I'm trying to update my iphone 3GS to the 4.3.4 version and I am getting the error message "This version of itunes (version 9.1.1) is the current version. How do I update my PHONE and why is an itunes update being confused for my iphone?
You need iTunes 10.0 or greater to update your phone...iTunes isn't confused at all. If you're on a Mac, you'll need OS X 10.5.8 or greater to update iTunes to 10.0 or greater.
