Iphoe.ne 4s not switching on after software update

I updateed my handset yesterday, after the update had been completed the handset told me to connect to itunes, which i did, itunes then told me the handset was in need of a restore, submitted to the restore only to get a message appearing on screen that itunes was unable to restore phone, its stuck now on a continuous loop of showing the apple icon and turning off. I have tried several times to hold the lock and home buttons in to no avail. It wont connect to itunes at all now either, and when i put it onto the charger it heats up at the back but thats it.  Do i need to bring it instore to be fixed?

If the above doesn't work, try and force iPad into Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button.
5. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad. Data will be lost.

  • S3 not booting up after Software Update

    My phone received the software update last week. After that, it started acting up weird and freezing up a lot.
    Yesterday, My phone's battery died, I switched to a fully charged battery and it would not turn on.
    I checked that both batteries were fully charged by leaving them overnight in a wallcharger.
    The phone does not do anything. When I connect the phone to the charger, the red light comes on like if it is charging, and shows the battery loading image. Which shows it at FULL.
    I tried to turn on the phone and it will not go pass the SAMSUNG screen without dying again.
    Help please.

    I did the Alternate Reset, and restored the phone to its Factory settings. When I hit reboot it still doing the same thing. It will not go pass the Samsung or Verizon screen.

  • MacBook Pro not booting up after Software Update ('prohibited' symbol)

    Hi there
    I'm having some issues with my (late 2008) MacBook Pro after installing a recent software update: the machine is not booting up, instead displaying the 'prohibited' symbol on the grey bootup screen, thus:
    !http://img828.imageshack.us/img828/7215/photovl.jpg!
    The back story: this morning I ran Software Update and installed the iWork update, the latest security update and the Snow Leopard Graphics Update. This installation apparently went fine, however on the required reboot the computer displayed the above image, and did nothing.
    I booted from the Snow Leopard install DVD, fixed disk permissions and repaired the disc, which Disk Utility claimed was successful; the computer still would not boot.
    I then rebooted from the Snow Leopard DVD and restored from my most recent Time Machine backup (dated a few days ago, before the software update). This, still, did not do the trick.
    As I have never seen this particular issue before, I'm at a loss as to what to try next, partly as I don't really know what the symbol is signifying. Any assistance that can be offered would be very, very useful.
    Cheers in advance!

    Thanks for that, I did go looking for it but couldn't find it.
    Unfortunately, resetting the PRAM and NVRAM didn't work. Will a reinstallation of OS X make a difference, bearing in mind I've already restored from a Time Machine backup? (I don't know if those clone everything or don't include system files).

  • SAFARI NOT WORKING PROPERLY AFTER SOFTWARE UPDATE

    WHEN I GO TO A PAGE IN SAFARI, I HOLDS TRYING TO FIND THE PAGE. A FEW MOMENTS LATER IT STATES THAT I'M NOT CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET (which I am). WHEN I REFRESH THE PAGE, IT IMMEDIATELY OPENS UP. THIS STARTED TWO DAYS AGO RIGHT AFTER THE SOFTWARE UPDATE FOR SAFARI. SOMETHING VERY BUGGY HERE. HELP

    User "Bee" gave this solution. I tried it and worked for me, although Safari is loading very slowly.
    Good luck!
    See if you have any of the following files. Just follow the path.
    HD/Library/Application Support/Conduit
    HD/Library/InputManagers/CTLoader
    HD/Library/Receipts/ctloader.pkg
    HD/Library/Receipts/<Toolbar name>.pkg

    HD/Users/<User name>/Library/Application Support/Conduit
    If you do, trash them and restart Safari.

  • Macbook Pro 7.1 not booting up after Software update

    Hello everyone,
    I have a problem, but first some context?
    I recently got my mom's old Macbook Pro(7.1) with Intel's 2.4 Ghz C2D and Nvidia 320M graphics. A small upgrade from my 2009 MBP(5.5) but is in much better shape than my old machine. In that unit(5.5) I used a 40 GB SSD as a boot drive and a 640 GB Platter drive for general storage, and removed the optical drive, as I did not use it very often.
    Well, now I transplanted both drives into the 7.1 MBP, but the system will get stuck at the grey screen. I then proceeded to backup all my data, and wipe both drives multiple times and tried to installs on a clean system.
    I replaced the aftermarket ram I had with the factory sticks, put the factory drive and the Super Drive back in. Loaded up Snow Leopard via DVD on an empty drive.
    It boots and runs just fine. So I put in the SSD to try it out. It loads OSX Snow Leopard just fine again. I go do a software update to 10.6.8, and on reboot to finalize, I get stuck again at the grey screen. The progress wheel freezes, and I am stuck until I do a forced shut-down.
    Safe mode gets me nowhere, AHT does not work, Verbose mode freezes after 10 seconds or so and I have also reset the SMC and the NV/PRAM multiple times.
    I am at a loss. I have a nearly pristine MBP that for some odd reason will not work for me in the slightest, despite my best efforts at attempting to diagnose the problem.
    Note that all componenents that I listed,(SSD, Larger HDD, Upgraded Ram etc.) All worked flawlessly in my previous MacBook Pro.
    Does one hardware generation make that much of a difference for an OS and for upgrades that clearly work in other Apple devices?

    darkrider92,
    I have the same model MacBook Pro as the one that you got from your mom. Were you able to install the 10.6.8 update successfully onto the factory drive? Were you using the factory RAM when you tried to install the 10.6.8 update on the SSD?
    Have you checked  the Web site of the SSD’s manufacturer, to see if there’s a firmware update available for the SSD?
    You can download the 10.6.8 update outside of Software Update from Apple here; in case you need to try to install this update several times, running it from your local disk would be more convenient than waiting for it to download again.

  • Macbook will not power up after software updates

    I got my White macbook last week.
    This afternoon, I ran a software update which had 6 items including iTunes 8 and OS X updates to 10.5.5.
    I left the software update running and upon my return, the Macbook had powered off and I could not power it up again.
    Tried everything in the manual and finally called my reseller for an appointment.
    I am very surprised that this happened.
    Can anyone provide a similar experience or tell me what may have happened?
    Thank you.
    RJ

    iTunes 8 has been known to be killing hard drives on macbooks, so i think that the problem is that your hard drive is toasted/dead. Since its only a week old apple could probably replace it for free for you, but theres a big chance all your data is lost. Also try removing the battery and putting it back in, then start it up. If it starts up but all you see is a folder w/ a question mark it means its corrupt. I would take it to the reseller or an apple genius to check it out (at the apple store)

  • MacBook will not turn on after software update

    I updated my MacBook with the newest software update, and now when I boot it up, it stays on the white window with the Apple logo and spinning wheel. After about a minute, it shuts itself down.
    What do I do?

    Mine is doing the same thing, I only had 3 updates, and it was frozen in the middle of one, so I shut it off. Although I shouldn't have done that, my computer should still be able to turn back on. I happened to read the updates for once and one was for my HP printer, and the other two were firmware updates, I don't remember specifically what they were though.

  • Xperia Z2 Tablet not switching on after lollipop update

    Hi,
    I had recently updated my xperia z2 tablet to lollipop version. But after switching off - i couldn't turn it on. I had tried soft / hard reset ? also plugged in the same to the charger for more than 24 hrs ?  But in vain. When i connect to the charger, the red light glows for a while and then fades away. it looks like its not even charging.
    I had even tried - using PC companion Sw, but its not even detecting the device.... Can some one give in some guidance on topic ?
    Its in warranty period but as i bought tthe same from US - its not valid in my home country (India)
    Br,
    Mathew

    I suggest that you try to repair the software using PC Companion..
    If the issue should still remain I think that this needs to be examined and fixed at a repair center. For more information about how to submit your phone for repair and where, contact your local support team.

  • Smart Actions not working properly after software update

    My Razr updated 2 days ago and since then my Smart Actions are not working properly. 
    I have my Work action set to turn the volume down when I'm at a certain GPS.  It shows that "Work" is active, but doesn't turn the volume down.
    Also, there are times (since I've owned the phone) that it will not connect to the network after coming off a Wifi Connection without rebooting the phone.  I took it into a Verizon store and they did a hard reset, and that fixed it for a time, but it started doing it again. 
    Any help appreciated.

        Hi mcclainkb, Let's make sure your phone works as you expect it to! Have you tried removing the Smart Action and setting it back up again?  Are your other GPS services working as normal?  After the hard reset performed in the store did you install all of the same application that you had before?
    Thank you,

  • Ipods not showing up after software update

    Since updating to itunes 8.0.2.20, I cannot access my ipods. I have three. When I plug them into my desktop machine (XP home), I hear the sound that indicates a new USB device, and the ipods will show that they're connected and charging.
    But: they don't show up in itunes, so I cannot add or delete anything to them.
    Please advise.

    Have you tried going to the App Store and finding the update there?  Or getting the updater from the Apple Downloads site: OS X Mavericks 10.9.1 Update

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
