    Did you try recovery mode?  Hold down the home button as you connect it to iTunes.  iTunes should pop up a window that says "iTunes has detected a device in recovery mode" and give you the option to restore.

    Your iPhone is in recovery mode.  Do the following to get it out of recovery mode.
    Plug your iPhone into your computer with iTunes open make sure iTunes recognizes the iPhone in recovery mode.
    Hold down the power button and the home button to do a hard reset and shut it off
    Keep your finger on the Home button ONLY and unplug the iPhone from the cable
    Release the Home button and allow the iPhone to power back on which may take a few minutes
    The iPhone will return to its prior format
    Hope that helps!

    There was a very recent update to the entire Apple website.

  • New iPhone restored from old backup off iTunes but keeps telling me to "connect to itunes" after it's done.

    Hello-
    I just upgraded from an iPhone 4 to an iPhone5s.  I was trying to set up my new iPhone.  I connected it to my Mac and iTunes and chose "restore backup from old phone".  It's now finished syncing but my iPhone keeps on telling me to "connect to itunes".  It's as if my new iPhone is not recognizing that restoring is done.  What do I need to do?
    Thanks for your help. 

    if the iPhone goes through the cycle again every time it is re-connected to your Mac, there is a problem with the old backup or with the new iPhone.
    Try restoring the new iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from the backup. If no problem after this, bingo.

  • My phone keeps telling me to connect to itunes. And I tried to restart but it just keeps popping up. What do I do?

    I tried to updated my phone to iOS 7.1.1 and it wouldn't load. It just kept saying "Verifying Update" and wouldnt load. It was on the charger and then it just shut off and now it's telling me to connect to itunes. I tried shutting it off and restarting it but it just keeps showing up. I dont know what to do. And when I connected to itunes, it says i have to restore my phone and that my phone is in restore mode.

    Your phone is in recovery mode and must be restored using iTunes.
    Any data that you did not back up has been lost.

  • My iphone 3gs is stuck on the "connect to iTunes" screen!

    I just got my iphone 3gs yesterday. The guy at the AT&t store told me to update it. Yesterday it didnt work, but today it did. I followed all the directions i've got it set up to the wifi. When it came to the "Set up iPhone" screen i selected itunes backup. I had it backed up and everything already on my computer. The next screen was the connect to iTunes screen. I plugged it in and it synced and i could see the little sync icon on the bar at the top of my phone. It won't let me off the screen now. I've tried plugging it in almost 10 times and it still wont let me off the screen. I would like to not have to set it up as a new iPhone if possible. Any suggestions?

    Nevermind. i reset it. Thanks a lot people.

    Hi Helski242,
    Let's see if we can isolate this issue further, I'd like you to try to restore your device with iTunes. If you are unable to do so, you may need to place the iPhone into recovery mode:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    You may experience one of the issues listed below with your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when you attempt to update or restore. If any of these occurs, you can place the device into recovery mode and attempt to restore the device again.
    - Device continually restarts but never displays the Home screen.
    - An update or restore did not complete and the device is no longer recognized in iTunes.
    - Stops responding, showing the Apple logo with no progress bar or a stopped progress bar, for over ten minutes.
    If you continue to have issues with iTunes recognizing your iPhone, see Step 5 "If the device is not recognized while in Recovery Mode" of this article:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows

  • How do I get an unlocked iPhone 3GS out of recovery mode (connect to itunes error) on screen. Cannot do anything on phone until problem is fixed ...

    After putting phone into DFU mode and attempting to restore and update the phone, at the end, an error message came up saying: "the iPhone could not be restored. An unknown error occured (1)."
    How do I go about fixing this problem. I need to get my phone out of this (connect to itunes) mode. Everything I've tried does not work ! By the way, I have the latest version of itunes .. (iTunes 11)

    Error 1 basically means you need to try two more times, and if the issue remains unresolved, contact Apple Support.
    Resolve specific iTunes update and restore errors - Support - Apple
    Check for hardware issues
    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 alert when you update or restore, contact Apple support.
