Itunes 9.1.1 and iPhone 2G wont restore

Hi, I have an iPhone 2G that i needed to restore, i restored from normal mode. iTunes got up to about 95% of 'restoring iPhone software' and the device just shows the bar under the apple logo at about 60% full. It then hangs for hours on end, the same is true for a recovery mode and DFU restore.. Any help and ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Any error messages?
If no error messages, make sure all firewalls, anti-virus, anti-malware, and anti-anything are turned off. Make sure you're connecting to a USB 2.0 port directly on your computer, no hubs. Make sure your cable is good. Try a different computer.

    Headsets don't come with the iPad. All you get is the iPad, USB cable and wall charger.

    The computer will not erase the information.  Each device will show up in iTunes as a separate device and you can control the information for each device through iTunes.

    i want to create an appleid and i dont have credit card. the instruction that you discribe at the top is not working in itune 11.1.3 and iphone 5s. what should i do

    We are fellow users here on these forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
    You need to follow, exactly, the instructions on that HT2534 page when creating an account (the instructions won't work with existing accounts) - I've just tried it and I got the 'none' option.
    e.g. on my computer's iTunes I logged out of my existing account, found a free app in the store and clicked on its free 'price' :
    I then clicked on 'create Apple id' on the popup :
    Agreed to the terms, filled in my details, and got the 'none' option on the payments screen :

  • HT1689 iTunes search on iPad and iPhone is not working.

    When I open iTunes on my iPad and iPhone the search feature doesn't work. Any suggestions on how to resolve that?

    Saw this on another post.
    Applecare Senior Advisor Txx Bxxx (I have his contact info in an email he just sent) just confirmed with me that the problem people are having with the App Store not loading is an apple issue with there servers, ITS NOT YOUR IPAD so don't go restoring it!   It's not happening to everyone however but they are looking into it, its really hit or miss.

    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 works for some users. Not sure why.
    Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

  • Updates of Apps from iTunes 11 for iPad and iPhone 5

    Since updating to version 11 of iTunes both my iPad and iPhone 5 cannot get updates for apps. My iPad is showing that there are 3 updates available but when I try to connect I get the error message "Cannot connect to iTunes Store". Other links such as top charts, genius and purchased are all available. Synching the iPad has had no effect. Has anyone any ideas? Many thanks for any help.

    If you are attempting to update directly on the iOS device, there have been a number of issues reported around this. Appears to be a server issue and is effecting some, but not all user. Some things to try:
    Wait it out a little bit while Apple addresses the server issues
    Try downloading any available free app. Once the download is complete, try the updates again.
    Try connecting from another WiFi network
    Sign out of your apple ID (Setting app, iTunes & App store) and sign back in
    Try a rest: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the iPad shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the iPad back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.
    You might want to start with the reset. May not help, but won't hurt.
