Thank you for your reply, i asume its in restore mode as all that shows is the itunes usb cable when the phone is turned on. does this mean its too late i must restore and loose everything? i have NEVER backed up or synced to a pc. :-(

  • Facetime audio cuts out on iPhone 4S and iPad2 after iOS6 update

    I've used Facetime on my iPad2 and iPhones for years.  I updated to iOS6 and now I have the incoming audio drop out, especially when the other person starts to talk after a delay.  Are there new settings or something I need to do.  It really detracts from the generally good Facetime experiences I've had in the past.

    I experience this problem as well. I have an iPhone 5 running on iOS6 and have a horrible time with audio on the other end cutting out when I receive it.

  • Contacts restore after iOS6-update

    Just sync them back from whatever program/cloud service you keep them in.

  • Iphone won't restore after last update error -34

    AFter this last update, my 3GS won't do a full restore. It keeps saying that iTunes was interrupted and gives error (-34). Any help please??

    I just got the iPhone 4S today, and previously had the 3GS. I started my iPhone as a "new" one in the store, but then I lost all my app data. So, I thought I'd restore it and backup from a version of my old iPhone. Before it would restore, it had to download 5.0.1. As it restored (and this has happened twice), the progress bar in iTunes made it about 99% of the way across, and on the phone it stopped at about 2/3rds. I checked the trash and the 5.0.1 file wasn't there (just 5.0 from my old phone). What can I do?

  • Iphone 4 missing music after ios6 update

    Since I have updated my IPhone 4 with IOS 6 it has not functioned well at all. Music is missing (but on Mac, Ipad1, I touch 1), 70%of apps in waiting, phone says I am not subscribed to ITunes match (which I am). Funny how my touch and pad are fine because they could not be updated (IOS 5 still) and yet my phone is messed up. I contated customer support and they are stumped as well. Any suggestions?

    Even more strangely, all the albums I have checked in iTunes on my iMac show in "Music" but almost all the songs are greyed out, with a few random ones showing. When synching the iPhone to theiMac a long blue bar indicates that the music is there but it doesn't transfer to the iPhone. The files on the iMac play fine via iTunes on the iMac.
    I have done a full "Restore" but nothing seems to work.
    Any ideas?

    Updated my iphone 4 overnight, woke up to find the phone displaying the apple sign, tried to reset and plugged into laptop nothing is happening

    Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes (currently 10.7)
    turn off firewall and antivirus. and try again.

  • My iPhone 3 not right after ios6 update

    My iPhone 3 crashes out of all apps and menus after a few seconds, also won't send messages, just halts progress then closes the app, can I downgrade the iOS again?

    No. You can not downgrade iOS. Try restoring the phone using iTunes.

  • Have a error code 4013. iphone 4s wont restore after update.

    my iphone will not restore after update. it is stuck in recovery mode. i get error code 4013 everytime a try to restore but i cant find anything on error code 4013.

    DFU mode is also good as stated above, however the instructions for DFU mode are below (please note this is not the same as recovery mode) -
    Plug your device into your computer.
    Turn off the device.
    Hold the Home button and Power button for 10 seconds
    Release the Power Button but keep holding the Home button
    Keep holding the Home button until you are alerted by iTunes saying that it has detected a device in Recovery Mode
    Make sure the device screen is blank and no logos are present, device screen should remain black.
    Error 4013 is due to security software issues. Uninstall all security software completely, try again, if the issue persists I would either recommend another computer or calling AppleCare tech support at 1-800-APL-CARE (for US customers).
    Note- this is even if your device worked fine prior to iOS 7 update with your security software. The change in the operating system on the device can cause compatibility issues with these other programs.
    I hope this helps it worked for me!

    I updated my iPhone 3G today and after the update it said on iTunes that my sim was not compatible and my iPhone screen went on to slide for emergency/connect to itunes. Ive tried restoring it but it hasnt worked. Please help!

    Unless the iPhone was purchased  as unlocked very recently directly from an Apple Store (the only place in the US where unlocked iPhones are sold, and then only since June), which from the symptoms I doubt is the case, then it was locked to AT&T and jailbroken to make it work with an Irish cell carrier. Updating the operating system has now relocked the iPhone back to AT&T.
    Only the cell carrier can institute an official unlock, one which will hold across updates of the operating system, and AT&T will not do so for any reason. All we can advise here is that you return the iPhone to your uncle and purchase an iPhone there in Ireland.
    Regards.

  • After ios6 update, I have lost all control of audio via Bluetooth, plus my Bluetooth car radio is no longer displaying track information from the iPhone. Help!

    After ios6 update, I have lost all control of audio via Bluetooth, plus my Bluetooth car radio is no longer displaying track information from the iPhone. Help!

    Hi there,
    You're running an old version of Safari. Before troubleshooting, try updating it to the latest version: 6.0. You can do this by clicking the Apple logo in the top left, then clicking Software update.
    You can also update to the latest version of OS X, 10.8 Mountain Lion, from the Mac App Store for $19.99, which will automatically install Safari 6 as well, but this isn't essential, only reccomended.
    Thanks, let me know if the update helps,
    Nathan

  • HT4623 why my iphone are not responding after i update the latest ios? and the screen displaying itunes icon

    why my iphone are not responding after i update the latest ios? and the screen displaying itunes icon

    You are in Recovery Mode. Follow the instructions below to recover your iPad.
    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.
    If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
    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.

  • Is there a fix for the wifi connectivity issue after ios6 update?

    Is there a fix for the wifi connectivity issue after ios6 update?
    Cannot connect to any wifi since update to 6.0.1
    How do I get update to 6.0.2?
    Will that even help?

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button
