I upgraded iPhone 3GS to Ios6 now it will joy shut down

Since upgrading my iPhone 3GS to Ios6 it will no longer shut down.

Hi Lisa 1952,
What have you done so far to try to fix it? I've tried rebooting several times and it did not work. Tried connecting to iTines but it does not recognize the iPhone.
My other iPhone 4s restarted successfully after the updgrade but some apps don't function properly. It automatically closes while in use.
Apple please help. I know it's the weekend but I need the other iPhone to work. Can't use sim with a diffrent phone because it's a micro sim!

    hi, i just updated my iphone 3gs to iso5 now it will not activate ive pressed ''try again'' alot but not getting anywere please help! i need my phone for work not had it too long and really annoyed lol thanks,

    Sorry, but Apple does not provide a downgrade path for iOS.
    Because downgrading is unsupported by Apple we cannot discuss it on these forums, but you can use Google to find information on how to install an older version of iOS on any device.
    Note that you will void the warranty and loose official support by Apple.
    Feel free to let Apple know at http://www.apple.com/feedback
    Anyway, give a try resetting all your settings:

  • I upgraded iphone 3gs to ios6 but now iphone will not recognize SIM card

    Hi,
    I upgraded both ipad 2 and iphone 3gs to ios6. I don't see any issue with ipad 2 but now iphone will not recognize SIM card. "Please insert a SIM card" message

    You say "... but now panorama is not working".  Panorama never was supposed to work before iOS 6, so you'll be using it for the first time with iOS 6.
    The way to enable panorama is to open the camera, click the "options" button at the top center, and select panorama.
    Does this work on your iPhone?  If not, what symptoms of failure do you experience?

  • HT201263 Upgrading iPhone 3GS to iOS6

    I upgraded my iPhone 3GS to iOS 6 using iTunes. After the upgrade is complete the phone tried to connect to Apple Server but couldn't connect to activate. Therefore, the phone failed to proceed further. My PC and iPhone both has active wifi connection. can you please please help me out? i am in Bangladesh. Thanks,

    May be your Phone was jailbroken, or may be you have not unlocked legaly (factory unlock). Now all you can do is jailbreak it again by installing ios4.1 on it  (that what I did). And never try again to update it to ios6 untill a proper jailbreak comes for the later. Good luck with that.

  • HT1414 iPhone 4 will not shut down

    I am trading in an old iPhone 4 for a new 5S. I have reset the phone to its original settings, now phone will not shut down. When I hold the power button it shows me slide to power off and it appears to shut down, but then it reboots again. When I hold down power button and home button it reboots it but still won't shut down. I have read about plugging it into computer to upload it, but new iPhone 5 is already set up on the computer.
    Any suggestions?

    This is caused by short circiut of the iPhone charging port. Clean the iPhone charging port very well with toothbrush and small amount of Isopropyl Alcohol. If this does not fix it, the replacement part is the charging port assembly with flex cable, lower mic, and home button flex connector, all a single less than $10 part.

  • Just upgraded iPhone 3GS to IOS5. Now there's 21GB of Others.  How to get rid of it?  It's taken up all the space on the phone.

    Just upgraded iPhone 3GS to IOS5. Now in itunes I can see there's 21GB of Others.  I have no idea what is that.  I didnt have that before the upgrade. How to get rid of it?  It's taken up all the space on the phone.

    I posted a fix for this temporary issue earlier but here it is in short:
    The memory "hog" that is "others" seems to be the OS as it's installing. It seems to want more than 12GB and you may get stuck at the point where iTunes tries to load everything back on and the iPhone has run out of space. What you need to to is un-check the "sync" box at the apps, music, podcasts and other sections, then click the button to sync iTunes with iPhone. This will result in iTunes deleting all the data it restored, but you'll put it back later. Once you caused the deletion of most of the data, iOS5 will resume installing and then "magically" shrink to less than 1GB. Then you can place check marks back in the boxes and re-sync all your apps and other data. You will have plenty or memory left.
    I followed the above procedure and my iPhone works perfectly.
    Hope this helps.

  • I have updated my iPhone 3GS to iOS6, I am now frozen on backing up to iCloud. HELP! What can I do?

    I have updated my iPhone 3GS to iOS6 and now my phone is stuck at backing up to iCloud! What can I do? I do not want to lose any data.

    Try resetting the device.
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings.
    You will not lose any data as a result of the resets.

    Well I spoke too soon.
    The update was successful, but now I cannot connect to the 3GS data network.
    Cannot get email and cannot open a page in Safari.
    +"Safari could not open the page because the server stopped responding."+
    +"Cannot Get Mail+
    +THe mail server is not responding. Verify that you have entered the correct account info in Mail settings."+
    Email and internet work fine on WiFi.........no data using 3GS network.
    Looks like I will have to revert back to old OS.

    Please help me.

    I think my problem is fixed now.
    For the fun of it, I reinstalled iTunes 9.2.1 today (using the exact same installer as I did yesterday), but this time I didn't uninstall iTunes first. As expected, iTunes recognized my iPhone (as I expected it to, until my next reboot).
    A few minutes later, Software Update showed up and among the updates is "iPhone SDK Compatibility Update". The description indicates that installing this should fix an issue where iPhones and iPod touches aren't recognized by iTunes. Isn't that interesting?
    I installed that update and most of the others waiting for me (including Java, Safari 5.0.1, and a few others - not 10.6.4 though, due to the issues with nVidia graphics cards). After the reboot, I started iTunes, and it saw my iPhone!
    So, if you're having this same problem, I'd recommend tracking down this update and see if that does the trick for you. Hopefully it will.

    after updating my iphone 3gs to ios6 a message "we're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time." pls help

    I have the same problem after updating to the latest iTunes. I purchased an iPhone 4S this past summer and gave my 3GS to my 6 year-old minus the SIM card-- an instant iPod Touch. Things were fine until the latest version of iTunes 11.0. Until I updated to 11.0.1, iTunes would not even "see" the iPhone.
    How do I get past the insistence to activate the phone? Right now, it's a useless brick.

  • Upgrading iPhone 3Gs OS 4

    How to Upgrading iPhone 3Gs currently version to OS 4?

    Thank you very much, wjosten
    This was the one straight forward clear answer I have been searching for a while now.
    I suppose that you have tried this and know by experience that it works. It seems that you know what you´re talking about anyway. And I was assuming that it should work the way you describe, even though it doesn´t say clearly anywere.
    And if I´m not mistaking, if I loose my contact info, I could always sync it back through MobileMe, right?
    Thanks again. Looking forward to the update:)
