Incredibly long restore time on new iPhone?

Apple exchanged my iPhone 3g today, no questions asked and that was a good thing. I brought it home and plugged it into iTunes to restore it and it sat there for 3 hours...still not restored.
It moves at an acceptable rate until it hits approx. 3/4 of the way done (on the progress bar), and then it just sits there for an hour.......
Any wisdom on that subject?
Thanks to all!

how did you end up fixing this issue?

  • ITunes stopped working when restoring backup to new iPhone 6

    Hi
    I have just bought a new iPhone 6 128GB.  I backed up my iPhone 4S to my computer using iTunes 12.0.1.  When I tried to start the new iPhone 6 from the back up it restored so far, up to step 5 of 5, but when it tired to sync Apps and Music iTunes stopped working.  It has done this over 5 times at exactly the same stage.
    I am running Windows 7 Home Premium Edition Service Pack 1.
    I have uninstalled and re-installed iTunes, turned both the phone and laptop off and back on again.  Update all of the Apps on my laptop and installed them all manually on the phone, tried syncing again... and again...  and again...
    It is now getting extremely infuriating as I have now wasted over 4 hours trying to get Apps and Music on my iPhone 6.  The reason for my the 128GB version was so I no longer need to carry and iPod on holiday as I have lots of music.  I now can't sync any music!
    Please help...

    Hey jas1976,
    I can certainly understand your frustration at being unable to complete the restore of your iPhone's content on your new phone. Let's see if we can get you up and running.
    If you are having an issue with being unable to complete a restore to your new iPhone 6, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -

  • Incredibly Long Lag Time When Working With Effects in Premiere Pro CC 2014

    I am having incredibly long lag times when working with effects in Premier Pro CC 2014.  Like 60 seconds or more.  This also happens periodically when I am doing something as simple as cutting into a timeline (just ripple deleting from and in to an out point). 
    I have a MacBook Pro running OSX 10.9.4 2 GHz Intel Core i7 with 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3. 
    I have seen that some people are having different versions of the same problem.  I do have RedGiant plug-ins, but I am not using any of them in this project.  The Red Giant plugs (again, not being used in the project) include MOJO and Universe.  The previous version most certainly did not work like this.  Any ideas?  I did try moving the Red Giant plugs out of the COMMON folder and "alt" starting up to reset preferences.  Still having same problems.
    A specific example is I have an interview shot.  I add brightness and contrast.  Just making a change to the effect (increasing brightness) causes freezing of the interface and long delays.  I added a piece of transparent video on a top layer to add a CIRCLE to create a vignette effect.  Same deal -- ridiculously long times for effect changes to take place.
    Does anyone have any clues as to how to fix these problems? 
    THANKS FOR ANYONE'S HELP!!!!!!!

    Got the same Error. Previous I worked with a GTX 760, and was hoping to get it fixed with using a GTX 780 6GB. But just as you, didn't solve the Problem.
    Usually I got the Problem solved, with exiting Premiere, restarting it, reset my Workspace. Then the Problem of having the bugged Workspace was gone. And also the Problem of the missing Video Tracks.
    At the moment I started on a new Project. Pretty simple, with only a 21 second DV footage. And here I was switching tabs with my Browser, came back to the Project, and the Video Tracks were gone. I saved, closed Premiere, restated and the Video Tracks are still  missing.
    So I made a new Sequence, voilá the Video Tracks are there. Thus I need to copy and paste the Tracks onto the new Sequence.
    But that is not really a solution!
    I was on the Phone with Adobe, and on Chat, but they couldn't help me. They suggested to get a Tesla or Quadro Card, or at least a GPU that got confirmed as working on their page. I did that, but obviously, that is not the issue.

  • Purchased music not able to use as ringtones after restoring to a new iPhone, how do I fix this?

    As the title says my purchased music is no longer available to use as ringtone/text tones after restoring to a new iPhone. I restored it from a iPhone 5 to another iPhone 5 after some technical problems, nothing dealing with apps or music. Can anyone help me?

    Did you make your own ringtones from your music? If so, you can do it again. This is what I used: http://www.simonblog.com/2012/12/01/itunes-11-how-to-create-free-ringtone-and-te xt-tone/

  • Incredibly long wait times [SOLVED]

    anyone have any idea why I'd be getting *incredibly* long wait times on my server? [http://omploader.org/vNTRuYg]
    it only seems to affect my wordpress installation, though.. everything else seems ok. I don't get it.
    EDIT: changing the SCRIPT_FILENAME fastcgi_param to $document_root$fastcgi_script_name seemed to help quite a bit.

    I bought an iPhone 4 from a youngster who had put his own Apple ID on it but could not remember the password. I backed it up yesterday and restored to my new iPhone and it copied the Apple ID across too. Now I have 2 phones with it on. Anything I do?

    that must be really annoying !!
    so this is what you call
    FIND MY IPHONE ACTIVATION LOCK Find My iPhone Activation Lock - Apple Support
    when you start using iCloud on any iOS device and enable find my iPhone, this prevents  a new user from using it, and also prevents anyone from using the phone
    as it is locked to previous owners account ,this is also the case if when a phone is lost or stolen.
    the only way around this is to have the previous owner reset their apple id by going to  @ applied.apple.com
    if they are unable to do this, then the only other way around this is to have the previous owner get  a copy of their original receipt and call apple support who can then lift this lock if they get a copy of the receipt
    unfortunately there is no quick fix -> the below link explains what you should do before you sell or give away an iPhone

    If you can't restore from your backup you could try 3rd party software such as iPhone Backup Extractor to see if you could extract your notes from the backup.

  • Inability to restore apps to new iphone 5s from encrypted backup

    Hi, thanks for any advice. I recently upgraded to iphone 5s following significant slowown of iphone 4 which until the ios 7 update was a perfectly usable device. I am now simply unable to fully restore a brand new iphone 5s from a full encrypted iphone 4 backup using itunes. I have followed to letter the instructions on apple's website.
    The restore process runs through but only restores text messages, contacts and photos. None of the over 20 other apps are showing up on the new iphone 5s. Perhaps I am misreading what itunes can backup and restore. I would appretiate any suggestions. Thanks.

    Can you access other apps? Can you acess the internet? Can you access applications that use internet besides facebook?
    If answer is yes to all of these; contact Facebook.

  • Cannot restore my brand new iphone 4s ,got stuck in DFU mode and itunes shows error code (-1) please help?

    Cannot restore my brand new iphone 4s ,got stuck in DFU mode and itunes shows error code (-1) please help?
    repeatedly tried from diffierent computers and the same error code pops up (error -1)

    That's a hardware problem which will require a trip to the Apple store for evaluation, unless your phone has been jailbroken, then it's a corrupt hosts file (and we can't help you with that here as it is against the forum's terms of use).

  • HT201269 tried to restore backup onto new iPhone 4 from old one, but only get error message (-1)??? Help please.

    Have tried over and over again. Won't restore backup onto new iPhone 4. I updated the software first, have tried wiping phone and starting fresh. Continue to get message at an error occured. Sometimes it says (-1).

    Well, the obviously solution is to use separate Apple ID's for iCloud.

  • If I requested to erase a stolen device on find my iphone but did not receive a confirmation, do I need to remove the device before restoring the replacement (new) iphone? Can my stolen iphone still be erased if I restore my new iphone?

    if I requested to erase a stolen device on find my iphone but did not  receive a confirmation, do I need to remove the device before restoring  the replacement (new) iphone? Can my stolen iphone still be erased if I  restore my new iphone? I am just concerned with someone accessing all my  content.

    1. No.
    2. Yes if it's still on online

  • HT4859 If I got a new iPhone and backed up the data from the old one, it should show up once the new one is set up right? Does an "incomplete" status mean it did not back up and can not be restored to the new iPhone?

    If I got a new iPhone and backed up the date from the old one, it should show up once the new one is set up right?
    And does an "incomplete" status on iCloud mean it can't be restored to the new iPhone?
    Help please

    What I mean is still track my stolen one. I don't know if this will make sense to you but I'm thinking that if I restore the back up data on this phone..on my stolen phone it will like forget the icloud account or something and think this phone is the stolen one so when I go to track the stolen one, it will show that phone as the one I have now because I restored the back up from that phone.

  • HT201413 stuck in restore mode on new iphone 5

    stuck in restore mode on new iphone 5

    Error 9
    This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes.  This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

  • How to restore data on new iphone without using the initial setup

    I bought a new iphone 5s today but the guy in the shop skipped the initial setup to activate the sim meaning I didn't get to restore the data through iCloud from my old phone as the wifi in the shop wasn't working. I have now got home to a wifi connection and have signed into my iCloud account but how do I restore my data? Or how do I get back to the initial setup?

    On your phone: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings. You can now restore your previous phone's backup to your new phone.
