    Put the iPhone into DFU mode. Open iTunes on computer you usually sync with and connect the phone. Hold both home and power buttons for exactly 10 seconds, release power button, keep holding home button until iTunes recognizes an iPhone in Recovery Mode. Then just recover from the last backup.

    what can i do when my iphone activition screen show connect to itunes and not show wifi

    You also are not showing any cellular service. Have you contacted your provider regarding that? Regarding your WiFi, do you have wifi turned on in settings? Did you get your phone to show up in iTunes on your computer? I think we are dealing with several issues since you said that you have a message on your phone to connect to iTunes and you don't have cellular service.

  • Re: while updating to ios 6.1.2 my iphone got lock showing connect to itunes, what i have to do so not loose my all data

    sir this reply i received from you -
    " You're welcome. Once you phone is in recovery mode, as is is now, you no longer have the option to back it up. Your only now is to restore it. Restoring the phone will erase it, then give you the option at the end to set it up as a new iPhone or restore it to an existing iTunes or iCloud backup, if one exists. If you don't have an existing backup, I'm afraid that unfortunately your data will be lost."
    My answer -
    sir i have icloud account also, and i login in my icloud account on my laptop in icloud.com and i checked there contacts which i had in my iphone that all are available in icloud website in my account.
    that means i have backup right? but how i can check my other data , means messages and photos?
    please help me to how i can get backup through icloud after restoring my iphone? i will be very glad and helpful by you if you can send me the easy process to take back up from icloud
    please reply soon
    thanks and regards,

    Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
    To minimise loss... Connect to iTunes on the computer you Usually Sync with and Restore from the most recent Backup...

  • IPhone 5 keeps dropping connection to iTunes/Mac

    I have had my iPhone 5 for almost a week and I have had recurring problems with my connection to my Retina Macbook Pro.
    I plug my iPhone into my RMBP, via lightning/USB cable, and more often then not my computer does not recognize that any device has been plugged in.
    In the off chance that it makes a solid connection then everything works fine (syncing is a bit slower than my iPhone 4) until something happens and my computer loses connection with the iPhone.
    I'm not moving anything once a sync begins, however it still drops the iPhone.
    Everything is brand new.
    Is this the cable, software, or the iPhone itself?

    Okay, so I went to the genius bar today and spoke to two Apple geniuses, each of whom had a possible solution. Neither one worked for me, but both are good ideas and they may work for someone reading this thread so I'll include them here.   I also tried one other thing which worked for me.  I'll list that below. 
    Genius 1's Idea - Do a complete uninstall of iTunes before reinstalling. SInce there is no uninstaller for iTunes, she suggested a program called AppZapper, which would remove iTunes and all associated files.  I tried this and AppZapper works fast as advertised.  Unfortunately, it fixed nothing. 
    Genius 2's Idea - He was convinced it was a system problem so he suggested a clean install of the operating system, which would require a backup of all files and downloaded apps.  SInce I wasn't prepared to go to such extreme measures just yet, I tried one more thing which I should have tried much earlier...
    My Idea - I launched Disk Utility and ran Verify Disk, followed by Repair Permissions.  It found and repaired many damaged resource files, most of them belonging to iTunes, Image Capture, and iPhoto, the exact programs that were unable to see my iPhone.  Anyway, this worked.  iTunes kicks in instantly upon plugging in the iPhone, and appears in the Devices list just as it should.  And it may be my imagination, but everything seems to run a little zippier now.
    So Genius 2 was half right.  It was the system that was broken.  But doing a clean install turned out to be unnecessary. 
    Hope this helps. 

  • My iPhone 4s keeps saying "connect to iTunes"

    okay, this is long so bare with me. So I earased everything off my phone and set it as a "new phone" so I could downald iOS7. When iOS7 finished dowloading, my phone said "connect to iTunes" so I connected it to iTunes. It was almost finished adding everything back onto my phone when it said it couldn't be finished. I decided to sync it again, and it said all my music and apps were being synced back onto the phone. When I check iTunes to see if it was still syncing it said it had finished so I checked my phone and it said "connected to iTunes" so I disconnected it, when I did that, my phone said "connect to iTunes" so I connected it again and it synced again, and I kept on doing this until I tried connecting it in recovery mode, and restoring my phone, nothing has worked. Someone please help me.

    Instead of doing full reset try going into General -> Reset -> Reset All Settings - it worked magic for me after trying all other tricks mentioned on the web. You won't loose any data BTW.

    USB:
    Use a port directly on the computer, not a hub. If it is not a laptop and has ports on the back and front use a port on the back.
    Security Software:
    Disable your antivirus and firewall, then restore.
    Other:
    If the phone has been jailbroken that is likely the cause of your problem. Also, if the computer you are using to restore has been used to jailbreak any iOS device in the past.
