  • IPhone stuck at Connect to iTunes after update

    I just did an update to my iPhone 4 to 5.1, but the installation failed and now it's stuck on the "Connect to iTunes" screen! I tried to do a restore, that failed too.
    Help? :'(

    At what point does the restore fail?
    Also, is there a number next to the error?
    If so, check out this article:

  • IPad asking me to connect to iTunes after updating to iOS 8.1.1

    iPad asking me to connect to iTunes after updating to iOS 8.1.1
    I have iPad which was updated to iOS 8.1.1 recently and after boot up of the iPad; it is asking me to connect to iTunes.
    Please let me know what might be the issue. Why is it asking me to connect to iTunes? How will I be able to restore the iPad to a working condition.
    Thanks in advance.

    It means that the iPad has gone into recovery mode (all software has bugs, operating system updates don't always go smoothly). You will need to connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes by its cable, and that should recognise the iPad and let you reset it back to factory defaults - you can then restore to you backup, or just resent your content to it.

  • Iphone 4s wont connect to Itunes.

    I recently updated iTunes to 12 on my computer and now my iPhone 4s wont connect to the computer but my iPad Air will.
    I deleted and re-installed iTunes, (I'm running windows 8.1)
    The software is updated on my phone (ios 8.1)
    I've reset location and privacy settings and network settings on my phone
    Restarted both the phone and my laptop
    Re started the apple mobile service device
    Checked that my security software isn't stopping iTunes which it isnt.
    Tried all the USB ports on my laptop
    I'm still using my original iPhone cable
    And it still wont connect, every time i plug it into the computer it just comes up with
    "trust this computer" no matter how many times i click trust it doesn't accept my phone so that i can access it.
    Any ideas anyone?
    Thanks!

  • My iphone wont connect to itunes after ios 7.0 update. Help!

    I can not set up any of my apps after the new update. It keeps telling me to connect to itunes to enable push notifications. The message keeps popping up so I can not even use the app without having the push notifications enabled. I also am unable to activate my imessages. How can I fix this problem? Its rather annoying.

    Ok this is how I fixed this. Apparently iTunes uses Safari.
    Go to Settings -> Safari -> and Clear Cookies and Data and also Clear History - scroll down to see those settings.
    Set Block Cookies to either "from third parties and advertisers" or "Never" (you choose which one)
    In Advanced (scroll down its the last setting) make sure JavaScript in ON
    Here  is the last step I had to make to fix it - which may not apply to you.  Some time ago I changed my primary email for apple. I noticed it was  asking me to enter the password for the secondary email.
    I  went into iTunes and App Store, tapped my Apple Id and then Sign Out. I  then resigned in using my primary Apple email and password.
    Just to make sure, I turned the phone off and on, but honestly this may be optional.
    I am now working again.
    I hope this helps you.

  • New IPhone 5c wont connect to most recent update of Itunes

    I just got the IPhone 5c after having had the IPhone 4s for a couple of years; thus, i am accustomed to Itunes. However, my phone will not connect to itunes. I have done everything i could think of to fix it(updating itunes, restarting computer, turning off phone, etc) but nothing has worked. Can anyone help?

    Hello helpme2211,
    Thanks for the question, and great troubleshooting so far. The following resource outlines additional troubleshooting information for this issue. Because you have already attempted a few steps, you could probably skip to Step 3:

  • IPhone will not connect to iTunes after ios 7.1.2 update

    I was updating my iPhone 4s to the new software update (ios 7.1.2) and my computer fell asleep. My iPhone now is stuck on the connect to iTunes screen and when I plug it into my PC iTunes will not connect to it.
    I've tried putting it into recovery mode (won't allow me to slide to power off), and I've tried iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    I've also tried rebooting my computer, updating iTunes and enter DFU and Recovery modes
    When plugged in my device manager recognizes that an apple device is plugged in that is in recovery mode....
    I'm trying to back up my phone while it has the most recent software so I can transfer it onto my new 5s
    Please help!!
    iPhone 4s
    Windows 7

    You've tried the following procedure?
    Turn your device off and connect your cable to the computer, but not the device just yet. Start up iTunes. Now, hold down the home button on your device and plug it in to the cable - don't let go of the button until iTunes tells you it's detected a device in recovery mode. Now you can restore to factory settings.
    If this still doesn't work, you should make an appointment at the Genius Bar to have your device evaluated.

  • My iPhone wont connect to iTunes to update apps

    My iPhone 4S is recognised in iTunes when I plug it into my computer (it backs up& syncs), but when I try to update the apps on my phone or try to buy a ring tone the message 'cannot connect to iTunes' comes up on my phone. Ive tried going in settings & turning the date off automatic & changing the date to a year ahead but that didn't work (this was what a lot of people with the same problem seemed to do & it seemed to work).
