IPhone disconnected at the end of backing up?

Hi!
I have tried everything that I could have thought of but no luck. iPhone back up via manual back up keep giving me error message of iPhone being disconnected at the end.
Methods I tried:-
Moving to different USB port.
Reinstalling iTunes.
Reboot PC and iPhone.
Device Manager - disabling and enabling USB and updating driver.
None of those worked. When I tried to back up iPad - it had been flawless. So it is definitely the iPhone not my PC, I assume. I had endless problems with my iPhone 6 since I got it in October and Apple is refusing to replace it, saying it is the software issues and was suggested restore - of course, I couldn't as I definitely don't want to lose data by being unable to back up. I have finally managed to save photos via iFunbox after many attempts so not too worried about photos. But I do want a back up of the phone though. The phone also gives No Service most of the time and WiFI signal is rather weak. Still a no for replacement!
Photo Gallery by Windows - problems with that - unable to transfer photos when with iPad - it had been fine.
I am at wits ends in what to do so any help would be much appreciated before I snap the phone in halves.

I recently unlocked my iPhone 5s & it didn't quite follow the instructions provided by the network, all I had to do is insert the SIM from a different operator & connect to iTunes & all was fine; no congratulations message saying the phone was now unlocked nor any saying the SIM was invalid, it didn't lock to the new network.
To be sure I checked on Apple's site & it worked as they said rather than how my provider said.

    That usually means that there is something wrong with the backup and it cannot be used.  You can try restoring the backup again, but if you continue to get the same message all you can do is restore to a different backup, if you have one.

    I final piece for me in the jigsaw following on from this
    http://www.care4pcs.co.uk/2012/10/how-to-be-happy-gmail-user-on-iphone-or.html 
    is to turn off wifi when you do not need it. When I leave the house I turn off wifi, because the majority of the times when my iPhone has got very hot and crashed is when I am away from home. I suspect that if the iPhone is in the vicinity of public wifi (wheather secure or not secure) it will try and connect, even if you have 'automatically join known networks' set to off. This is easy of course if you have an unlimited data contract for your iPhone. I may be wrong, but it is working for me. It makes sense for me because it is another way of reducing the work the processor (and battery) has to do and therefore reduces the chance of overheating.
    Having said that, I never had this problem with my iPhone 4. I now have a 4S.
    Try it. Hope it works for you.

    Icloud or itunes backup, only backs up app data, not the app itself.
    so if you restore as new, then there is no app data on your phone, you start out new...

    Have you downloaded and installed an App Store app that you downloaded free from some website instead of from the App Store? If so, that's a stolen app, and you need to delete it.

  • How can I delete songs from iphone 4s without the songs synching back with itunes?

    How can I delete songs (forever) from iphone 4s without the songs synching back with itunes automatically?
    My settings are , handle songs manually.
    Best regards PelleRPG

    I did this with about 100 songs, and the problem is everytime I connect my iphone with itunes, It will automatically sync back every single song I did delete on the phone by swiping.
    I did search on google and found out that serveral people has this problem. The songs wont delete from itunes library.
    So why do they even make this function if it only deletes the songs for a short time?
    Best regards PelleRPG.

  • Itunes in iphone skips to the end of tracks

    It doesnt happen all the time, but sometimes when i select a track or podcast, it will just skip to the end of the song, then play the next thing. This seems to happen most when i search for songs in the iphone search page and also happens a lot with podcasts that i just select regularly. Its becoming very annoying because i have a lot of podcasts and if im not paying attention it will skip one but mark it as played. Anyone else having this problem or know what I can do about it?

    I have updated my iPhone to 4.3 since then the music player stop skipping/shuffling from one music to the next. The transition icon used to be on the 4.2.1 and now on 4.3 it disappeared. So my iPod now plays the same music forever which is annoying. I have to reshuffle the music manually every time I want to listen to different music. Apple seems to resolve one issue and introduce another one. I have tried to restore my iPHone to 4.2.1 but after several attempts, no joy at all. I am stuck with unwanted update 4.3 and I am deprived from enjoying my music.
    The update 4.3 has many faults including the effect on battery life. Another emerging issue is text and MMS interface. If I turn the MMS on and send simple text message, my currier charges me based on MMS tariff. If I disable the MMS, I can not receive or send MMS at all. This is another annoying issue with iPhone 4.3 update. Please Apple sort this mess out. Without Steve Jobs presence and running Apple, every one of us will stick with the useless iPhone 4.3 for sometime to come. No body is helping to sort the problem out at Apple at the moment. We need Steve Jobs back as soon as possible. I wish him well.

  • Unlocking iPhone 5 at the end of my 24 Month Contract?

    I'm sorry if this question has been asked before, but I've been a little thrown by the information provided by my network (eMobile Ireland)
    My 24 month contract on my iPhone 5 comes to an end in the next couple of weeks, I contacted my network yesterday to ask about unlocking it so a family member can have the handset & changing my tariff etc.
    They advised me I am now eligible for the device to be unlock from the network, took my IMEI and processed the request,
    The email I've received this morning has confused me a little.... (I'll highlight my query)
    "We have received your iPhone unlocking request and your phone will be remotely unlocked within the next 10 working days. In order to fully unlock the phone you will need to follow the below steps after 10 working days:
    1. Place the SIM card of the new operator you wish to move to into the iPhone.
    2. The iPhone will then 'Brick' (a security feature) and will require a connection to iTunes to perform a 'Customer Restore'.
    3. iTunes will detect the IMEI of the device and search for updates (this normal and is performed every time the iPhone is connected to iTunes).
    4. iTunes will detected the new SIM and that the 'Unlock Key' is available. It will then deploy the Unlock Key to the device.
    5. From here, the iPhone (still connected to iTunes) will perform the standard un-brick process which includes:
    i. Check for latest Software update
    ii. Perform a customer restore (SYNC)
    During this process, your iPhone will detect the SIM of a new network operator and iTunes will deploy the necessary 'Carrier Bundle' to the phone. This contains the correct settings for the new network operator, which also includes the operators' 'Network Lock'.
    This means that your iPhone will then become locked to the new network.
    Once the syncing is complete your phone is now ready for use with another network operator.
    If you need to unlock your iPhone again you will need to contact the network operator the phone is now locked to. You can find this information by going to settings > General > About and beside 'Carrier' the network operator will be displayed.
    I hope you find this information useful.
    Kind Regards,
    The  eMobile Team"
    Whenever I've had a handset unlocked in the past, it didn't relock when I used a new sim from a different network, is this really what happens or just some misinformation?
    If so is this the case if I use an existing sim card such as the one from work phone or a Pay As You Go sim card?
    Any further info or personal experiences would be hugely appreciated.
    Thank you in advance,
    Bobby H.

    No, you can't upgrade, except by selling your 4S and using the money towards a 5.

  • HT4972 why won't my phone "restore"?  I downloaded ios 5 and did not unplug my iphone.  Toward the end it said error occurred, then said iphone cannot be restored.  Now it has a pic of itunes and won't do anything.  I can't even make a call, or get email.

    Just tried to download iOs 5 on my iphone 3G and now it says "can't restore" iphone.  I just has a pic of itunes.  Won't do anything even after hard shutdown.

    The iPhone 3G does not support iOS5. The only way you could get iTunes to download that particular iOS is if you were attempting  a hack. The lastest firmware for the 3G and the last one that it supports is 4.2.1.

  • Lync 2013 Audio headset - Dialtone while making voice calls wich cause a line disconnection at the end

    Greetings,
    I've searched for information on this, but haven't found a solution. I am using MS Office 2013 64bit as well as MS Lync 2013 64bit. Server level team has migrated my
    mailbox recently to Cloud.
    I've noticed with Lync, when I connect my headset (Plantronics and Microsoft Lync), I get a dial tone. We do not have Lync connected to a phone system. It plays the
    dial tone over Lync. The only way to stop it is to end the call.
    The weird part that my colleague is using the same computer. If he logs into the system using his own username, he doesn’t experience this issue although he uses the
    same headset which I am using and having problem with!!  
    Why is there a dialtone on Lync when I login to my profile? It's not even connected to a phone line!
    How to I disable a dialtone from happening?
    Your assistance with this would be greatly appreciated!

    I am having a similar issue.  Setup:
    Windows 7 x64
    Jabra Pro 9460 headset with Jabra Control Center 2.14.5888.0
    Lync 2013 (15.0.4623.1000) MSO 15.0.4645.1000 32-bit
    Setup to use Jabra
    Cisco IP Communicator 8.6.1.0 (Cisco IP Phone)
    Setup to use Jabra
    When I start a meeting in Lync via “Meet Now”, I immediately get:
    A dial tone on the headset
    Cisco IP Phone move to foreground and a call is started
    Lync’s Join Meeting Audio window is displayed
    No matter which option is select, including “Don’t join audio”, the dial tone continues.
    If I hang up the call on the Cisco IP Phone, the Lync meeting indicates:
    “You have been removed from this conversation.”
    I have used this in the past, before a rebuild to x64 when everything was upgraded, without this interaction.
    Is there a way to stop Lync from manipulating the Cisco IP Phone?
    Have deleted the profile as indicated as the Answer above…no help.
