IPhone in revovery after iOS update?, iPhone in revovery after iOS update?
I just went to update mt iOS like everyone els does (doesnt everyone like to keep up to date) but after i wanted my full FIVE HOURS (not very please) my phone showed a logo telling me to connect to iTunes. So i did as it requested. After i was connected it told me i had to revover my iPhone 4. I have done this once before on an iPod Touch and it completely screwed it up and I ended up not ohaving an iPod anymore. I need my phone so i am doing the recovery. I'm scared because i didnt have my iPhone completely synced. Will i loose everything??? If i do I will be highly ****** and just might have to go talk to the people at Verizon and just maybe swich to a droid. I have beed a long time Apple supporter but i will not hesitate on swiching because of something like this. I do plan onm getting the iPod 5g when it comes out in October but i still wont have the music i love on my iPhone. So am i pleased with Apple? NOT AT ALL! Please help s to how not to loose everything? Thank you!

After updating to ios 8 on my iphone 4s, all my music from iphone disappered. I tried all the suggestions, but I cant see music folder in the settings-general at all. I signed out of icloud as well, but still cannot sync with itune on my macbookpro. Can any one help?
Hello babichanjacob
Change how it syncs by enabling Manually manage music and videos, then you can drag and drop the music that you want on your iPhone. Revert it back to test to see if that resolves the issue.

IPhone 4S no longer recognizes back camera or flash after updating to iOS 7.1.1
I tried force quitting the camera app, then resetting, and restoring.
The camera app displays a black screen and is nonfuncitonal.
Any other apps that use the back camera are unable to use it.
Flashlight app, which uses the flash, reports that no flash is detected.
This happened right after installing iOS 7.1.1 so I don't believe it is a hardware problem.
I think it is a bug in iOS 7.1.1 for the iPhone 4S.
What can I do?Hello DanMBoston,
It sounds like you are unable to use the flash or the rear camera since updating to iOS 7.1.1 even after quitting the app, restarting and restoring from a backup. That is where I would have started as well. I would next restore your device one more time, but as a new device rather than from a backup with this article:
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
If it works when set up as a new device, restore from your backup to see if it still works, or if there is an issue with the backup file.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Like everyone else today, I attempted to make the move to iOS 8, using my Mac's iTunes. All was running smoothly, the progress bar was nearing the end when I received the error that "the iPhone software update server could not be contacted." With a now useless phone, I restarted it, hoping for the best as I could do nothing. I am now stuck with a phone which will turn on to the white startup screen and black Apple Logo, then instantly shut down, leaving me to repeat the process. If I hold down the home button, I can enter what seems to be "Recovery Mode," with a red iTunes Logo, as opposed to the usual blue. From here, all internet sources I have found suggest that I should restore the phone, but that's really where I hit the problem. When I plug the phone in, when in Recovery Mode, I simply receive the "iPhone software update server could not be contacted" error again, leaving the phone not recognized by iTunes. In non-recovery mode, the phone appears to simply turn off so fast that iTunes has no time to find it.
Any one with similar problems or solutions?This what happened to my iPhone 5 after I updated to iOS 8.0;
The update process was done smootly without problems thru
Over the Air.
Now when I cold start/boot my iPhone 5, my apple logo appears as it was
in iOS 7, but after 30 seconds or so, my Apple Logo dissappears the
screen goes black for 5-6 seconds, but then viola! I am at the Log-On
screen... Then I start using my iPhone.
Just like Chris above, I have done 10 reboots, (complete shut down and
restart), its always the same...
Other than this, my iPhone works just fine. I will not re-install the iOS.
From my past experience, re-installing the iOS does not change
these minor differences... -
My iPhone 5 suddenly could not hop onto LTE anymore, after updating to IOS 6.1
My iPhone 5 suddenly could not hop onto LTE anymore, after updating to IOS 6.1. I know there is LTE coverage at my house, since before I updated it, it could hop on to LTE just fine, in the same location. My Carrier is CSL Hong Kong. Does anyone have this problem? If so, does anyone have a answer to it?
Hi AEEA-Family,
I also did the update this morning and had the same problem also on Vodacom. The whole morning after the update I have No Signal, turning the phone on and of gives you signal for a couple of minutes then it drops again to no signal.
I've just made the following changes on my Phone and all seems ok again.
Here are the steps I took to resolve it on my phone.
1. Go to "Settings" > "Carrier" > Turn off "Automatic", wait for list of Carriers and select "Vodacom-SA"
2. Go to "Settings" > "General" > "Cellular" > Turn off "Enable LTE"
3. Go to "Settings" > "General" > "Cellular" > "Cellular Data Networks". Then Change EVERY APN from lte.vodacom.za to internet
After I made all those changes I did a hard restart of the phone and now all seems fine.
I suspect the update this morning Enabled all Vodacom's LTE settings, yet Vodacom is not 100% LTE yet in our areas and this is causing the problem.
Hope this helps other people. -

Jail-broken iPhone 4S won't come out of recovery mode after attempted ios 7 update
So I've had my jail-broken iPhone for a while and decided to go for the ios 7. After deleting 200 songs, 400 pictures & videos, and countless apps and other useless data to get the necessary free space to upgrade, I was finally able to download it. It went into recovery mode (showed the iTunes logo and the USB cord) shortly afterward. I plugged in my iPhone to my laptop, iTunes came up, but as I tried to restore the phone to upgrade to the ios 7, an error appeared saying the "iPhone software update server could not be contacted or is temporary unavailable". I've tried a LOT of stuff, from simply restarting my laptop to trying DFU mode like 200 times, and it keeps saying the same thing. Now I'm basically phoneless because it won't come out of recovery mode.
Does this have anything to do with it being jailbroken and not backed up prior to attempting to upgrade? Please help!Yes, it is directly related to j'breaking it. And as such, you will get no further support from Apple and we cannot help you either. Use an internet search to try to find a solution elsewhere.

What cause searching network problem after updating iphone 6 from iOS 8.1.2 TO iOS 8.1.3?
what cause searching network problem after updating iphone 6 from iOS 8.1.2 TO iOS 8.1.3?
SSince Apple does not support downgrading the iOS I suggest you start a new question that gives a good title to a specific problem. Then in the body of the thread describe the problem in detail, tell us what steps you have tried so far to correct the problem, what happened, and what error messages you received.

i've updated my iphone 4 (gsm) to ios 6.0.1 and after that it's stuck in recovery mode (itunes logo cable), i tried many solutions but nothing works, did any one has an idea about this , thank you
I should add that this has never been Jailbroken. I keep reading that a lot of times this is the case for a jail broken phone.
I have also gone through the not very helpfull steps on apples site to fix this.. It is not a security issue since i dont have an antivirus or any 3rd party software for my computer. -
IPhone 6 screen freezes and can't find wifi after iOS 8.0.2 update
iPhone 6 screen freezes and can't find wifi after iOS 8.0.2 update. Have to do a hard reboot. I am Extremely disappointed and lost ALL trust in Apples Quality Assurance. From now on I'll wait a week before I update.
Hey there Shortos,
It sounds like your phone touchscreen is not consistently working for you after updating to iOS 8. I can see how that would be pretty frustrating. It sounds to me like this could be a software issue or an issue with the screen itself. I would start with the troubleshooting in the following article to help troubleshoot the screen itself:
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Troubleshooting touchscreen response
Restart your device
Hold the On/Off button until "slide to power off" appears. Slide to power off your device. When it is off, press the On/Off button to turn it back on.
If you can't restart your device, reset it by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for a least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
Clean the screen with a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth.
Avoid using the device while wearing gloves, with wet hands, or immediately after applying hand lotion.
If you have a protective case, or if you are using a plastic sheet or film on the display, try removing them and testing the device without it.
If that does not resolve the issue, I would next quit all the running apps on the device:
iOS: Force an app to close
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that restart the device and test the issue again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

Continuous with the problem, the headphone does not work after having my iphone ios 8.0.2 updated
the headset does not work after having my iphone ios 8.0.2 updated to me is very annoying to have to be answering speakerphone is not private and can not go with the hands-free all the time
I had the same issue until I updated my apps through iTunes. I had over 100 updates, but none of them showed on my iPod. After they updated everything started syncing like it is supposed. Go to the apps library and check for updates. After everything syncs leave your iPhone/ipod/ipad connected if the spinning arrows at the top is still spinning. It means that things are still being added. If you go to settings > general > about, you will see it loading songs, videos, photos, etc. If you back out of "about" and then go back to it you will see the numbers for each one change.

I am facing problems with mails after update iPhone 4S/io7. I have configured yahoo mail in iPhone 4S. When I click on refresh, it shows new mail downloaded but when I go inside inbox the new mail don't show up. Can anyone help me with this iOS 7 issue ?
Hi were you able to resolve yours?
I was very worried losing all my medical stuff on my iPad Air 2, plus i have nothing to use for the next day! So i have to try all the possible things i read on the internet!! And this worked on my part (Thank God, and thank you Google)
Perform a hard reboot
Hold down the Home button and Power button on your iPhone or iPad and keep holding them until you see the Apple logo. Once you do, you can let go. When your device boots back up, go ahead and check to see if the apps have started re-downloading. If they still appear to be stuck, continue on. -
I have updated iOS 6 in my iPhone 4S and it went perfectly fine. Just after that when I opened the message app I found that the sms body of system generated messages was not visible after tapping on them.

Hi. i updated my iphone 4s to iOS 7.0.4 but after that, wifi is not enabled. please help in this regard.
Apple has provided a useless workaround... [http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1559]
Else the only option you have is to fight with the Apple Store "geniuses" to get a free replacement for out of warranty 4S devices. Or try a third party repair like iFixit. The wifi chip might cost you 60-80$ but it is better than paying Apple 200$.
Overheating is the culprit in 4S devices. And its been getting worse with ever successive iOS 7 update. I think 7.0.4 was the final nail in the coffin.
They are not getting my money anymore.. I've had iPhones every since they launched... but no more. Feels like a dead investment after facing this issue. I can never sell my iPhone 4S even if I want to. There have been cases where users just sold their 4S devices, the new owner updated to 7.0.4, wifi stopped working and the seller had to give a refund.
I'm basically sitting on a 650$ white brick. Hmm... I wonder if white bricks sell higher than the standard red bricks
Guess it's time for you to sign up this ongoing campaign [https://www.change.org/petitions/apple-to-get-apple-to-replace-all-units-affecte d-negatively-by-the-update-of-ios7-or-patch-an-update-that-will-remedy-the-issue s-many-loyal-customers-are-experiencing#share]
TBH, I can't get a replacement because I am in India where 4S was never launched as an unlocked device and there are no Apple retail stores. Only resellers here like Vodafone/Reliance/Airtel. But if this petition can help the one who can take advantage of having retail stores around... why not? Sign up please. Thank You.
