I tried updating my software, and now its telling me I need to restore my phone

I went to update my software, waited the full time, and as it was finishing it told me I couldnt do the update at this time. And now its telling me to connect my phone to iTunes and the only option I have is to restore it. Someone please help.

Don't panic. The same thing happened to me. When I tried to restore, I got the error message again, so I had to try to restore a third time. Fortunately, it worked. Try it a couple of times it it doesn't work at first. Once you restore, use your backup file from your last sync on iTunes fully restore your phone (it will ask if you want to do that). It will give you the new iOS and bring back all your apps and settings (fingers crossed).

If iTunes is telling you that you need to restore your phone again, I would restore the phone again.
or, what exactly is indicating you need to restore?

I downloaded pictures to iTunes, the phone would not delete the pictures and then hung up after trying to download the updates and now its telling me I have to restore the phone.

My iPhone 5 had too many pictures stored on it. So I downloaded them to iPhoto after they were imported I click for it to delete the pictures from the phone. The pictures were never deleted and then the phone try to update to the new the new IOS even though I did not click for the phone to do this. I got an error saying the phone could not update and that I would have to restore the phone to factory settings. The phone is frozen and just talks to me when I try to do a function on the phone. And it hasn't restored or updated anything.

Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem

Tried updating my software. Now the screen is stuck on plug into iTunes icon. I don't have a computer I can use. Is there anyway to get around this and fix phone?

No chance.
If the "plug into iTunes"-Logo appears, you have to do so.
Sorry.

I updated my software and now, even though I installed an updated Flash player, I can't see videos with Safari. Help?

I updated my software and now I get the message blocked plug-in whenever I try to watch video in Safari. I installed the new Flash player but it still doesn't work. I've checked my plug-ins and uninstalled/reinstalled but nothing works. What can I do? Help

Two bugs, one affecting Apple's Mac platform and another attacking Microsoft's Windows, exploit certain Flash player vulnerabilities to install malware onto users' systems, reports ArsTechnica. While users of other operating systems like Linux have yet to report attacks, Adobe's advisory notes the exploit affects all platforms.
Designated as CVE-2013-0634, the first vulnerability targets the Safari and Firefox Web browsers running on OS X, and is also being used as a trojan to deploy Microsoft Word documents containing malware. For Mac users, the flaw affects Adobe Flash Player version 11.5.502.146 or earlier.
On March 1 Apple again blocked Flash Player for Lion and Mountain Lion:

The Adobe Flash patch can be found on Adobe’s website, and users can visit this page to check if their software is the most curent version.
You should uninstall any previous version first, and repair permissions after installing the new version.

Connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes (you will need an up-to-date version of iTunes installed on your computer) and you should be able to reset your iPad : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212 - you can then restore/resync your content to it

ASk your friend who unlock the phone for him/her.
ONly the carrier that the phone is locked to is authorized to unlock it.
bAse on your description, it sounds like your friend had his/her phone hacked to unlock it from the original carrier.

HT201210 I tried updating my iphone and now it says I have to restore my phone. I've never had to do this with any other updates, I'm confused?

Same with me. The Upgrade hung up and froze the phone. Do the restore and then back it up when you get into iTunes from a previous save. It takes the better part of an hour our of your day depending how many apps and songs you have to get everything back together. It is a royal pain but I didn't lose anything.
Download a youtube app. It's not in iOS6.

Tried updating Iphone 4 and now have got all my brothers apps and his apple ID sign in?

You must have synched your phone with his iTunes account. The iPhone can only be synched with one iTunes account at a time. You need to synch your phone on a computer that has YOUR iTunes account. Then all the current data on your phone (your brother's data) will be erased and replaced with your own data.
