Try a reset, hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.

  • HT1212 I have an iphone 3 which has been disabled, I've put it into recovery mode but itunes won't connect to it. I know the password but the device wn't give me the option to add it. What else can I do to enable the device. I can't wipe it from the cloud

    I have an iphone 3G which has been disabled after a child tried to get into it. Itunes will not connect until I have put the passcode in but the device will only enable emergency calls and does not allow a passcode to be put in. I have put it into recovery mode and itunes can't see it. There is currently no SIM card in it and it's not connectng to the wifi so I can't wipe it from the cloud. Any ideas how I can get into it?

    iPhones require a SIM for activation.
    Put the device in DFU mode (google it) and restore via iTunes.

    Hey rayele,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    After reviewing your post, it sounds like you are locked out of the iPhone. You haven't mentioned what part of the process isn't working for you. If you restored to a saved backup and the password came back you may want to see if you can restore as new without using the backed up data.

  • How can i put my ipod into recovery mode i've tried to put it in recovery mode but it won't help me

    i've turned off my ipod and i held the home button and plugged in the USB but nothing happened

    Placing your device into recovery (DFU) mode:
    Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
       1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the
           other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
       2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds
           until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
                  * If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
                    Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
                    release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
      3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
           device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
           let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
           charge, and then start with step 2 again.
      4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
           When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
      5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
      6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
    If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
    Additional Information:
    Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

  • My iPad security code was reset, but I can't remember it. I have tried to restore it in Recovery mode, but it still asks for the passcode, and therefore can't be found in iTunes. What else can I try?

    How can I reset the passcode/connect the device to iTunes/restore?

    If you follow the steps below closely, it should not ask you for passcode.
    Recovery Mode
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
    Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

  • I tried to follow the steps in recovery mode but itunes still can't detect it

    i tried to follow the steps in recovery mode but itunes still can't detect it.
    Ok ok. It did work the first time, however the phone got disconnected so then the phone turned itself on again.
    I tried to repeat the same steps again but it did not show the itunes logo. It just turned on and went to the lock screen.
    I did this for about 4-5 times. Each trial ending up with the same result.
    So what i did, once the phone was connected to itunes i clicked the update button and waited for HOURS to finish the update.
    It did restart and did whole other things. But it stopped and a black screen appeared with a text saying Iphone is disabled. Connect to iTunes.
    Any suggestions on what to do next? I'm seriously feeling so frustrated right now.
    So in case you didn't get it my phone was disabled after entering the wrong password too many times. Tried fixing it but it seemed to get worse.
    Really desperate here.

  • My iPhone 4 will NOT show up on iTunes, not even by putting it into recovery mode. Can anyone help me fix this problem? I would like to use iTunes with it.

    I got an iPhone 4 on Thursday.
    I connected it to my PC, a Windows Vista, that day and nothing showed up besides a "camera."
    My computer picked it up as a camera, which I understand is a common occurence in the iPhone.
    After browsing countless youtube videos and Apple Forum Questions, nothing helped.
    I put it into recovery mode by holding on the power and menu button, but when I opened iTunes it still didn't detect anything.
    I feel like I'm almost hurting my iPhone because I turned it off and on so many times, and plugged it in and out several times, and so forth.
    Here is what happened after putting it into recovery mode: 1. A Windows "device locator" popped up. 2. It was looking for a solution to help me with the unknown device, or iPhone. 3. I clicked onto the find solution button, and it told me that I needed a disc.
    --- I didn't have a disc, so I looked up this problem and it told me to manually find Apple mobile device support on my driver, so I did.---
    4. I then went onto Control Panel and clicked on SYSTEM and MAINTENANCE and went to DEVICE MANAGER.
    5. There I found my iPhone listed under USB controllers.
    6. I uninstalled and installed it several times.
    7. I then manually found a program to ease the problem. The program was "apple mobile device support," which was located on my apple driver.
    8. Nothing happened, besides it reporting to me that Apple USB was found and that "code 39" or "code 1" was in the way.
    9. I didn't know what to do with this....
    By this time, I was about to give up on my iPhone and return it back to the store.
    I tried again, but in a different way this time.
    1. I put it back into recovery mode and I opened itunes.
    2. itunes reported to me that some burning or CD/Drive software was missing and that I needed to reinstall it.
    3. SO, I reinstalled it several times, about 12 (iTunes), and nothing changed.
    4. I then looked up the problem of why the CD/Drive software problem kept popping up.
    5. I fixed it by going to my registry and adding an UpperFilter with the code GEARaspi...something like that.
    6. The problem was fixed, but still no iPhone onto my itunes.
    I stayed up all night last night to fix this problem...I'm annoyed and tired.
    I tried another problem to fix this.
    1. I didn't put it into recovery mode.
    2. My iPhone showed up under portable devices under "device manager," from SYS/MAIN"
    3. I did update software.
    4. I clicked on "apple mobile device support" but nothing happened.
    5. It reported to me of the Code thing again.
    I even called the Apple people and they didn't know what to do, so I stopped calling them...because they only had limited options to fix the problem.
    Can anyone help me?

    There's a whole lot to read in your post, and frankly I have not read it all.
    Having said that, this troubleshooting guide should help:

    In particular, pay attention to the mobile device support sections near the bottom, assuming you have already done the items above it.

  • Iphone will not respond after trying to put it into DFU mode while in recovery mode.

    I tried to restore my iphone 4 and recieved error 21 in itunes, while in recovery mode I tried to put it into DFU mode and then it turned off and wont turn back on or be recognized by itunes or pc. I tried doing a hard reset and no luck. HELP PLEASE!!!!!

    That does happen.  It depends on how hard the server is being hit, as well as the connection speed of your system.  If you are on a windows system, you will want to disable any antivirus or firewall software during the download.
