Iphone 4 freezes after downloading iOS6

After downloading iOS6 the iphone went to restart, after getting halfway through the status bar it freezes and wont complete the install and start.  Any suggestions on how to get the iphone working again?

Place the device in DFU mode (google it) and restore.

    why can't i connect to itunes after downloading ios6 software

    Try:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    or
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
    you need iTunes version 10.7. If a Mac instead see:

  • I just synced my iphone 3gs after downloading the Safari upgrade, now my iphone won;'t open any apps except the ones loaded on my phone when I got it.

    I just synced my iphone 3gs after downloading the safari update.  Now I can't open any apps except the ones that came with the phone.  I have tried rebooting, turning it off and on. 
    When I select the icon, it goes to the page then returns to my screensaver.
    It was working well before the update and sync with my Acer netbook.  Have never had any problems with itunes store or downloads.

    this happened to me with my iPhone 4. I researched the problem and found this :
    "The reason this happens is because every time a downloaded app is opened it checks for your itunes password for validation that you are authorized to open that app (as it may contain personal info). From time to time the iphone 'forgets' your itunes password. You can fix the missing password by syncing the iphone with itunes or downloading an app from the app store and entering your password that way.”
    And to fix it, all I did was download a new app, or delete a current one, I used Facebook, and re-download it.
    Hope this helps

  • Screen resolution changes on iphone 4s after downloading OS 6.

    Screen resolution changes on iphone 4s after downloading OS 6. Can't see entire home screen. I must reboot to restore original resolution, but while zoomed I can't see the ok button. What is the fix?

    No one here knows when the next iOS update will be released or what changes it will include until Apple releases it.
    iOS 6.1.2 does not disable Wi-Fi, the vast majority of issues with iPhones that appear after an iOS update can be resolved with basic troubleshooting which is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).
    If that does not resolve, then the issue is hardware related and no amount of iOS updates or restores will ever get it functional again.

    Errors 3000-3999 (3004, 3013, 3014, 3018, 3164, 3194, and so on): Error codes in the 3000 range generally mean that iTunes cannot contact the update server (gs.apple.com) on ports 80 or 443.
    Update to the latest version of iTunes.
    Verify the computer's date and time are accurate.
    Check that your security or firewall software is not interfering with ports 80 or 443, or with the server gs.apple.com.
    Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
    An entry in your hosts file may be redirecting requests to gs.apple.com (see "Unable to contact the iOS software update server gs.apple.com" above).
    Internet proxy settings can cause this issue. If you are using a proxy, try without using one.
    Test restoring while connected to a known-good network.

  • IPhone 4s no longer saving photos after downloading iOS6

    After downloading the new iOS6 to my iPhone 4s I can no longer save pictures from Facebook or the web. When I touch the photo I am given the option to save it (which I do), but then it doesn't appear in my camera roll.  Only pics taken with camera are saved.  Why is this happening??

    There is one way of saving photos of Facebook that is to hold down the home button and the button at the top of your phone the button at top hold these two down together and it will save it for you. You might have to do it a few times but it will work because I do it this way all the time hope it works for ya.

  • Why does my iphone 4s keep freezing after downloading ios7?, why does my iphone 4s keep freezing after downloading ios7?

    my iphone4s keeps freezing immediately after downloading the ios7 update.
    has anyone else encountered this?
    will there be an update to fix this?
    what are people doing to solve this problem?

    Sounds like hardware failure, called boot loop. Call Apple and or go on apple.com and make Genius Bar appointment to have your iphone reviewed by a Tech. Provided you iphone shows no physical or liquid damage they will take care of you, or if you have Apple Care Plus

  • Yikes. Is RESTORING my iPhone the best fix for my loss of contacts after downloading IOS6?

    Hello All,
    I downloaded IOS6 onto my iPhone (I think it's a 4 or 4S) and shortly thereafter noticed that all my contacts are GONE. This seems to be a common issue as I'm seeing it repeatedly in the threads. The downside is, I don't remember ever doing a backup (it's possible I did, and just don't remember, but it's also just as possible [and more likely] that I haven't). So, I'm now backing up my iPhone onto iTunes and am contemplating a RESTORE. Might this help? Or is it a useless endeavor which may cause more problems?
    By the way, I went to iCloud.com and looked at which contacts are there and they're not there either, so not an option to try to pull them back over.
    This kinda *****!

    The deal with syncing contacts is that you either do so through iTunes, with a supported application on your computer, or over-the-air with something like iCloud. You don't do both at the same time. Doing so will create duplicates & a mess. As to whether one is better than the other, that's up to you. Over-the-air keeps everything in sync across all your devices, automatically, but relies on the stability of the iCloud servers. With your computer, requires that you regularly sync, to keep stuff updated, and that you maintain a current backup.
