IPhone 2.0 has crashed my iPhone

I am trying to get connected after downloading iPhone update 2.0.
However I am now stuck with the iPhone in Recovery mode. Everytime I extract the software and try to begin updating to 2.0 I get the error message in iTunes 7.7 'The iPhone could not be restored. An unknown error has occurred. (2005)'
I have tried downloading earlier versions of the iPhone software, but no joy. Similarily I have tried downloading older version of iTunes (from www.oldapps.com) but again, this has proved useless.
I have been without my phone all day and am at my wit's end trying to work out how to fix this. Can anyone help me please?
Any help will be gratefully appreciated.

i know the feeling i wonder will apple give us the new 3g for messing up our iphones read my post to see my prob help is needed badly for 2.0 software

  • My iPhone 4 has crashed.  i tunes will not recognize it and I can't restore it.  I sync with macbook pro and all software is up to date.  no anti-virus applications/software are on my macbook.  any ideas?

    my iphone 4g has crashed.  itunes doesn't seem to recognize it and wil not let me restore it.  i have updated all software and there are no anti-virus apps/software on the macbook that this phone syncs with.  i do get an error message on the phone that says something like the accessory is not compatible but I have no accessory for the phone other than the apple chargers and ear buds.  any thoughts? 

    The possible fix for the "this accessory is not compatible" is to carefully clean the dock port with isopropyll alcohol especially the pins which are on top of the mid rib. Be firm but do not break anything. Let it dry for a minute. See if that helps, if not try to clean one more time. If problems persist might need to Visit Apple.

  • While updating to ios 6 my iphone has crashed

    while updating to ios 6 my iphone has crashed, and is now stuck on the installation screen. anyone know what i can do from here?

    I'm having the same problems. Can't even find out if Apple is working on it. Tried to downgrade but is not supported by apple so error 3194 comes up which is verifying with the apple web site. Which then stops everything. I understand you can modify the "hosts" file to by pass the issue, but hate doing that as it gets involved. May try it if I can't get any satisfaction from apple.

    This error normally appears if you attempted to downgrade or modify your iOS. See here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error1015

  • Original Computer I started syncing my iphone to has crashed. How do I go about syncing up with my new computer without losing all of my stuff. Everytime I have tried it tells me it needs to erase my iphone and replace it with the current library.

    The original computer that I began syncing my iphone to has crashed and I now have a new computer.  I need to know if anyone can help me? How do I sync my phone to the new computer and tell it that it's now going to be my primary computer instead of the old one? There has to be a way, viruses effect computers all the time and they crash so I know I can't be the only one.
    Than you

    You should be able to recover the media with the tips in  this post from forum regular Zevoneer but I'm not sure what the implications are for your application settings. You can probably transfer your purchases into a newly authorised library, backup the device, recover any other media using third party tools, then restore the device from the backup. That might switch the assocation of the device to the new machine but I couldn't say for sure.

  • How do I get my photos off 1st generation itouch? I have macbook pro, ipad, iphone. Itouch syncs but does not have option to share in any capacity ie send via email, etc. Also, the computer from which photos were originally taken from has crashed.

    How do I get my photos off 1st generation itouch? I have macbook pro, ipad, iphone. Itouch syncs but does not have option to share in any capacity ie send via email, etc. Also, the computer from which photos were originally taken from has crashed.

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
    Did you fail to back up your pics?
    The photo sync is one way - comptuer to ipod.
    You can e-mail them to yourself (instructions in the manual), but they will not be of the original quality.

  • HT1414 My iPhone has crashed during a sync and now I can't restore from backup as it is asking for password to load the backup yet neither the lock code for the phone or my iTunes Password are working... I have no other password to all upon and need the r

    My iPhone has crashed during a sync and now I can't restore from backup as it is asking for password to load the backup yet neither the lock code for the phone or my iTunes Password are working... I have no other password to call upon and need the restore to retrieve info onto my phone, I am a real novice to this...... please help, !!!!

    If anyone else is looking for a solution to this same problem, I was able to get it working looking through several older discussions.
    The solution was to use the password that I had on my iTunes account the very first time I set up the iPhone about a year ago.  I changed my iTunes password about 10 months ago;  but apparently, the backups continue to use the password that existed when the phone was first set up.
    A couple of troubling things with this are that 1) I didn't apply a password when I did the backup this afternoon so I don't understand why it was required when I did the restore a few hours later. and 2) it makes zero sense why iTunes would not be smart enough to use the current accout password when requiring the password to restore from a backup made with no password. 
    I thought iTunes and Apple were smarter than that.  With so many posts stating exactly the same problem, it is clear that this is bug in the software. 
    Best,

  • Hi my laptop with my itunes lubrary has crashed so i got a new one but i dont want to sync my iphone to the new laptop incase i lose all my songs on my iphone. how do i sync to a new one without losing everything

    hi i need help
    hi my laptop with my itunes lubrary has crashed so i got a new one but i dont want to sync my iphone to the new laptop incase i lose all my songs on my iphone. how do i sync to a new one without losing everything

    The right way is to restore the backup that you kept of your old computer onto your new one. If it is too late for that before you do anything set up a backup process for the new one so when it crashes (note I said "when", not "if") you won't be faced with this problem again.
    In lieu of that the apps already mentioned will help you get content off the phone if it was not purchased from iTunes. But it it WAS purchased from iTunes just connect the phone to your new computer, Authorize iTunes on the new computer and choose "Transfer Purchases" from the iTunes file menu.

  • My iPhone 4S has crashed 7 times. I hold down the home key and on button to reboot. I tried a restore but has crashed once since. Do I have a faulty phone ?

    My new iPhone 4S has crashed 7 times ie the screen does not come back on when I press the home key. I hold down the home key and on button to reboot and it always comes back. I tried a restore but it has crashed once since. Is this right  ? Do I have a faulty phone ? Any suggestions ?

    Does the screen come back on if you press the sleep/power button?
    Have you tried powering down (hold sleep/power button and swipe red slider) then power back up?  Power cycling sometimes will clear problems.
    If neither works, and you can get to an Apple store, have the genius bar folks try it out...they are very good about replacement if faulty.

Help I have no clue about technology!!!!!

    The official way to do it is to restore the iTunes library that was on your old computer to your new computer using the backup of your whole system you regularly update.  Then you are syncing the phone with the same old library.
    Some of the information below is summarized by turingtest2 in the post at https://discussions.apple.com/message/18842615
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was designed for you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchased content.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only media purchased from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

  • My old computer has crashed with my old itunes on it. How can I transfer my music from my iphone to my new itunes library?

    My old computer has crashed with my old itunes on it. How can I transfer my music from my iphone to my new itunes library?

    Use the backup of the old computer and copy the iTunes files to the new one.
    However, since you are writing here, you probably didn't have a backup, so check out this user provided support document https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141

  • HT1414 My iPhone 4s has crashed since downloading 6.1.1 - error 3014 any idea?

    My iPhone 4s has crashed sine 6.1.1 update.  Error 3014 anyone have the same problem?

    It HAS to be hardware..
    I made the appointment, thank you.
    I consistently close all apps, keep my brightness down, keep wifi off when not in use, and location services. Reset my phone and still the battery drains so fast!
    It appears to be messaging, and Facebook apps, and safari that are the leading cause..
    If I send maybe 10 texts, I'll easily lose 4-8 % battery. I literally watch it drain in front of my eyes.
    Roughly a minute of Facebook, safari, or mail consumes 1-2%.
    That is faulty hardware, or software..
    Either way it's apples fault. My phone is mint! Never been out of this otter box except to wipe dust off and when I charge it..
    I charge regularly. Let it die down before charging, and let it almost completely die then fully charge it once a month too.
    I hope apple repairs my battery, or software
