IPhone cannot be restored after ios 7 update??

I did the ios 7 update on my iPhone 4s last night. Mid update, my iphone gave the "connect to itunes" Screen. I connected to itunes and found that my iphone had enetered "recovery mode" and had to be restored. Tried to restore it and about 3/4 way through restore I get an error message that says " the iPhone "iPhone" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (1)." I have done this serveral times now and each time I get the same message.
Mind you, I have tried restarting the iphone, I have charged the phone over night, I have tried using a different cable/different USP port, I have tried using a different computer, restarting my computer, "home/lock" button hold down. All I can get, regardless of all this, is an error message and a permantent "plug into iTunes screen."
HELP!!!!

The easiest thing to try is restoring the iPhone on anohter computer.
See this Apple doc for other more specific ideas -> Resolve specific iTunes update and restore errors
Check for hardware issues
Related errors: 1, 3, 10-47, 1002, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1000-1020, 1669.
Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the error message when you update or restore, contact Apple support.

My 3gs wont restore after ios 5 update. I have tried firmware restore and restore from backup, neither works. All I get is "iphone restore failed because backup session failed" Any ideas on how to make a successful restore with this ios 5 update?

My 3gs wont restore after ios 5 update. I have tried firmware restore and restore from backup, neither works. All I get is "iphone restore failed because backup session failed" Any ideas on how to make a successful restore with this ios 5 update?

I was having the same problem, I backed up my phone and then updated to iOS 5 and then it kept telling me it could not restore from my backup as it had failed. After reading a bunch of forums and posts and trying everything, I did manage to get it to work. I had tried the Time zone, creating a new computer user account, disabling anti-virus, etc.
It took a combination of things, one of which was disabling the anti-virus completely and copying the contents of the backup folder to my desktop and then deleting everything in the backup folder. Then I rebooted the PC, entirely disabled the anti-virus, copied the one backup I wanted to restore from the desktop to the backup folder and then trying to restore. Low and behold the phone said restoring from backup and I am back in business, so when in doubt, trying combining some of the fixes together.

HT6154 rear camera on iphone 5 not working after ios 8 update why?

My iPhone 5 rear camera is no longer working after ios 8 update its just black I can see the flash choice the hdr and the timer but other than that it is a black screen

Hi there fjci2003,
You may find the troubleshooting steps in the article below helpful.
Get help with the camera on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
You see a closed lens or black screen
If you see a closed lens or black screen when you open the Camera app, try these steps:
Make sure that there’s nothing blocking the camera lens. If you’re using a case, try removing it.
Force the app to close, then open the Camera app again.
Restart your device, then open the Camera app again.
If your device has a front and rear camera, try both cameras by tapping the camera swap icon . If you see the closed lens or black screen on only one camera, take your device to an Apple Retail Store or Authorized Service Provider for more help.

Why won't my Iphone 4S restore after iOS 7 update

I downloaded the IOS 7 update for my iphone 4s & after it finished downloading it turned off & then was turning back on and then I got the picture of a USB pointing towards Itunes. I've plugged it into Itunes & it still won't let me reset it, even though I have the newest Itunes, I'm running out of options and getting frustrated. I've held down the top button & the home button at the same time & it goes right back to the same screen. HELP PLEASE.

Restart your computer and then try to restore the phone with it again.
Also try this, plug your phone into the charger that came with it, which plugs into the wall, then reset it again by holding power and the home buttons like you did before.. It will probably go back to the screen you are seeing but that will be expected. After you do this try restoring with iTunes again.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

SMS messages not restored after iOS 7 update

Both my iPhone and iPad are displaying very small numbers of SMS messages following the iOS 7 update. There are more on the iPad but very few on the iPhone. Both were backed up via iTunes before the update. The update and backup were applied in Winodws 8 in case this is significant. I wondered if there might be an issue related to messages which don't relate to a listed contact as the ones I was particularly trying to find were connected to an unsaved contact. Any help or

Well it seems I can answer my own question. Messages was populated by my old messages once i started to use it. Strange as I wasn't aware of having backed up to iCloud, only iTunes. Anyway, all is fine now.

HT201210 iPhone 4s cannot be restored after IOS 7.0.2 upgrade

My iPhone 4s prompted me to upgrade to IOS 7.0.2 today. After I initiated the upgrade the phone went to sleep. When I tried to use it, it displayed the "connect to iTunes" message; once connected to iTunes on my iMac, I got messages that it detected an iPhone that needed to be recovered. I tried several times, trying suggested ideas each time -- I upgraded to the latest version of iTunes on my iMac; I pressed both the sleep and home buttons til the apple appeared and then tried to restore -- but none worked. iTunes seems to have lost the name of my iPhone. First time I tried to restore the device list on the left listed its real name but subsequent tries displayed only "iPhone" and I got messages that it couldn't be restored due to an unknown reason with a code 4013.

I'm having the same problem with my iPhone 4, stuck in a boot loop, and each time I try to restore, I get hit with message 3014 when it starts 'Restoring iPhone Firmware".
I have rebooted several times, updated all software, redownloaded the ios file several times over etc, but still phone unable to restore, stuck in the 'connect to itunes' mode.

IPhone 3GS frozen/rebooting after iOS 5 update.

Hello all,
I updated my iPhone 3GS to iOS 5 last night. All seemed well until I noticed the restore was complete. The iPhone was frozen on the Home Screen. The flash of white the runs beneath the slide to unlock is frozen at different intervals everytime the phone reboots itself. I have tried restoring the phone multiple time. I am unable to perform a hard reset because the phone's sleep button is nonfunctional. When the phone decides to reboot itself, about every two minutes, I notice that for a split second it flashes to a gray screen with an iPhone in darker gray. There are words all over the screen but I am unable to read any of it before te phone resets. I think I see a "Peparing to Install" title on the screen, but that is a guess. Any ideas from anyone? I'm really at a loss of what to do.

An update on my problem above. I too restored my software but all it got me was losing all of my ZombieLife progress, LOL.
It seems to me that my phone freezes/reboots when it is trying to grab a signal for an update. It has happened to me several times on the initial visit to a website on Safari and also on Nike GPS. I can still see the page I was on in the background a bit but there is no recovering the phone. I have to then hold down the lock button to restart it and sometimes that will not work unless it is on a charger.
Today my battery went from around 70% to the phone saying it needed to be charged in the span of a few minutes. When I did get it on the charger in my car it went back to 66% after rebooting.
I don't know if it means much but I have AppToolKit Lite and in the System Monitor it shows you memory usage. At the moment out of 254.23MB I have 120M Active and the only I am running is the app. Wired is at 40M, Inactive is at 32.20M and Free is at 63.90. This is after I double-clicked the home key and killed all other apps. When there are apps active the Free memory is next to nothing. Not sure if this is a cause but I hope there is a solution soon with 5.01!

IPhone 4S skips songs after iOS 6 update. What is wrong with it?, iPhone 4S skips songs after iOS 6 update. What is wrong with it?

After I updated to iOS 6 when I listen to music. It skips songs. When I tap to play a song it skips 2-6 songs and plays a random song. Why is this? Can it be fixed?

AAAhhhh.. c'mon Apple this is REALLY annoying.
OK - before the IOS6 update... ituenes match worked fine. Now... i have songs skipping. It will show the artwork for a brief moment and then automatically move onto the next song.
I've tried everything, turning both match on device and itunes on and off, restore etc.
Anybody any solutions? I suggest we all demand our money back for itunes match for a start as I'm not paying for a product that doesn't work! I'm sure if we all do this Apple will hurry up and get it sorted!

IPhone 3GS continuously restarting after iOS 6 update

Since I updated it, I've not been able to put it in recovery mode, get iTunes to recognise or turn it out. The apple logo appears for around 3-5s when turned on, but then restarts and repeats until the battery goes flat. Any fix to this or have I just totaled my phone because of this stupid ******* company?

Charge iPhone on Wall Charger for at least 20 minutes, longer will be better, but maybe 20 minutes will work. Then open iTunes on computer. Then connect iPhone to computer with USB Cable. Hold both home and power buttons until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, usually takes about 20 seconds of holding both buttons. Click the Restore button of iTunes. If this does not work last step would be to perform a DFU Mode Restore.

Verizon iPhone stuck at activation after IOS 5 update

I just attempted to update my Verizon iPhone 4 to IOS5 and it is now asking be to activate it. The phone itself says "no service" (despite being in an area that normally has very strong reception) and attempts to activate over wifi fail. This isn't a Verizon problem, as my phone is still listed as activated on their site since I never deactivated it. I have attempted a reset but that left me in the same situation. This problem occured at the restore step of the process.
Does anyone know of a solution to this problem? Or at least something else I can try? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You sould take it to a verizon store. It is verizons problem, because Apple has nothing to do with the activation process of your phone. Verizon is currently having issues with activating iPhone and iPads running IOS5 within the device itself. I was told by Verizon they are working to fix the issues they are having, but it could take some time. You are better off going to the local Verizon store and getting the phone reactivated there, but they could probably help you over the phone, just don't bother hitting the button for prepaid Verizon when you call, because they will not be able to activate your phone.

IPhone 5 keeps freezing after ios 7 update!

I tried everything and my iphone continued freezing. There is a new 7.0.2 update but im on iOS 6.1.4 now and i dont know if i can go back again. I live in Iran and there is no support here so if its goes wrong i will not be able to use my iPhone again

Downgrading the iOS is officially not supported by Apple. Instaling software to be able to downgrade can cause problems like these.
Unauthorized modification of iOS has been a major source of instability, disruption of services, and other issues
