My iphone 4 is in DFU mode.  However I still want the photos on the phone so I cant use the itune recover option.  Does anyone know of a work around

actually its not in DFU which is suppose to be a black screen.  When it powers on there is an image of Itunes logo and the usb cord.  What happened is I did an update before I backed up my photos the phone worked great after the update no issues till it powered off.  When I turned it on again it had those two icons and was forcing me to sync with Itunes to system default which will wipe out my media. 
Have you heard of any data recovery services

  • Does anyone know of a work around for this problem? : iphone 5 will not work on Chryslers uconnect.  I found out that they are working on it but have no ETA.   However, they will not help you if your vehicle is older thatn 2008.

    Do not get an iphone 5 if you want to use it with a Chrysler product.  The Chrysler Uconnect system might pair with your phone but the uconnect system will usually abend and become unusable after a few telephone conversations.  I have been to the dealer twice.  They have reset the uconnect system twice and I find it works for about 2 to 3 phone calls then it abends and uconnect becomes useless.  They had me call Chrysler at 1-800-247-9753.  I was told that the iphone five is not compatable at this time with any chrysler uconnect phone through the dash system, even the new vehicles.  He had me get on this web site: www.uconnectphone.com as a place to monitor as when it would be compatable.  They told me that Samsung seems to be working harder to make it compatible than apple is and they had no idea when it would begin to work.  In effect Chrysler was telling me dump the iphone and get a Samsung if you want it to work in a Chrysler.  Also, the site would only give you information for Chrysler that were 2008 or newer, they gave the following number to call if your vehicle was older.    I called that number and they told me that Chrysler and Uconnect had no plans at all to make the iphone 5 work, in the future, on any Chrysler older than 2008.  So.......If you have a Chrysler or Dodge that is older than 2008 you will NEVER  be able to use an iphone5 on the uconnect through the dash system.   Do not buy an iphone if you have an older vehicle.  It will never be supported for the $1,000 you paid for this uconnect system on your car.  My car is a 2005 Town and Country.  I asked both Chrysler and uconnect if their was some sort of work around so I could use my phone.  They both told me their was not and that they had no plans to resolve this situation for my vehicle.  This means that I need to either get rid of my $42,000 vehicle with low milage or get rid of my Iphone 5.  Niether are really good options. 
    I was also givne the following places to send formal complaints, even though I was told that neither Chrysler, Dodge or Apple were going to do anything to correct my problem: 
    for email:   [email protected]   or Mail:  Chrysler customer Assistance  P.O. Box 218004, Auburn Hills, Michigan  48321
    If anyone hears of a work around to be able to use an Iphone 5 in a Chrysler or Dodge product, please let me know. 

    This response is a little late as I just read about your problem. I have a 2012 Dodge Charger and a 2012 Chrysler Town and Country and both worked flawlessly with the iPhone 5s my wife and I had. However, we just upgraded to the iPhone 6 and Uconnect will receive calls but you cannot answer them. You can callout successfully, however. the annoyance being the inability to answer incoming calls in the HandsFree mode.

    I should mention that if you are deadset on using a Mac, then you can run Windows 7 or 8 in Parallels. You will find about a 10% speed reduction using a VM emulation. You will also need to have at least 8 GBs of RAM in your Mac to assure optimum performance of both OS X and Windows. Do not install a later version of Windows than is supported by your software.

    If you bought your phone from an official source, like a carrier and not in some 'market / ebay', then you can update with no issues.
    If you bought it from other than a carrier then you have to take your chances.

  • When I logged on to itunes my daughters contacts uploaded to my iphone. We do not share the same itunes account. Does anyone know how to get rid of her contacts other then manually deleting them one by one?

    When i logged onto my itunes account, my daughters contacts uploaded to my iphone.  We do not share the same itunes account so i don't know how this happened. Does anyone know how to remove her contacts from my phone with out having to manually delete them one by one?

    Apparently, you have set up the same iCloud account on both devices or you are syncing both devices under the same user ID on the same computer and have ended up syncing both of them with the same address book on the computer.

  • I got my iphone 5 3 weeks ago and the battery life is very short. It drains out very fast. Does anyone know if it's a problem with the iOS or with my phone? Because I'm a bit concerned

    I recieved my iPhone 5 3 weeks ago and the battery life completely *****! After doing a few things and maybe using it for about 30 minutes the phone start overheating like crazy then the battery starts dropping very fast. Does anyone know if it's a problem with the iOS or with my phone? And is anyone else expierenceing these problems?

    It sounds like you have an app that is incorrectly continuously using data and power... from normal use the phone should NOT be getting that warm... only constant video playing via data like Netflix for example would result in that...
    I'd say that you should remove all apps in the recent app tray... tunr phone off... then once you power back on...
    Hold BOTH home and sleep wake buttons together until you see a white apple symbol... then release both buttons...
    This will ensure you have no apps running...
    I've experienced a hang up with mail while out and about that has resulted in this on my iPhone as well... Once I performed these steps it was fixed... it seemed like it got stuck and that's what caused the warm phone and battery drain...
    I notived that when it gets stuck (mail app that is) I will see the text connecting at the bottom and it never changes to "updated" like it should... this is my trigger that it's gotten stuck.
    Have not really figured out what causes mail app to get stuck yet...

  • HT1620 I have a software update in my iPhone r for iOS 7.1.1 but it asks me for a 4 digit pass code I don't have one does anyone knows what that is?

    I have a software update on my iPhone but it asks me for a 4 number pass code does anyone know what this code is as never been asked before and don't have one

    Hopefully, you use a passcode to unlock your lock screen. It is that passcode that is required to update IOS. See Settings > Passcode.

  • HT1414 the iphone software update server could not be contacted.a duplicate file name was specified , please help as this is driving me nuts,does anyone know which file it could possibly be ?

    Hi could anyone help me out? my iphone 3gs keeps restarting itself every two minutes which i think is some kind of software issue,now there are a number of things i have done starting with putting in a new battery.when i charge the phone it resets itself every two minutes or so and the battery indicator stays at 4% so i decided to restore the phone on itunes (which is the latest edition) and when i connect my phone which i have put into recovery mode using the buttons, i get an error message saying :- the iphone software update server could not be contacted.a duplicate file name was specified. i have tried re-installing i tunes and that doesn't solve the issue and i have trawled through the program files to see if i could spot the duplicate but without success ,has anyone had the same issue and resolved it?

    An iPhone 3G cannot be updated beyond iOS 4.2.1...that's the end of the line for your phone.

    Hello Renvin29,
    It sounds like you need to disable your iPhone remotely. I'm sorry to hear about your phone! The only way to do this with is Apple services is if you had Find my iPhone enabled. You have 2 options:
    You can use this article to put the phone into Lost Mode and preserve your data on it, but prevent access to it:
    iCloud: Use Lost Mode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2700
    Or you can just erase it remotely outright:
    iCloud: Erase your device
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2701
    You should also take a look at this article for additional info on what to do about this situation:

  • I was in the middle of updating my iPhone 4 and a screen came up that had a picture of a cord with an arrow pointing to an iTunes icon. Does anyone know how to fix my phone?

    When I connect to iTunes it says "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes". Any ideas?

    See Here  >  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    You may need to try this More than Once...
    Be sure to Follow ALL the Steps...
    But... if the Device has been Modified... this will Not necessarily work.

  • I can't see any menu, iphone details, and other things in itunes for windows. does anyone know what to do about this ?

    Hello!
    I have a big problem with itunes. I can't see a few things in it.
    I have attached a picture below.
    Also please note, i am a fresh iPhone owner and I run iTunes 10.5 on Windows 7 on 32 bits, and had NO problem with anything until iTunes.

    Try taking the USB lead out of the PC and plugging into another
    Then turn the phone off by holding the power ans home buttons at the same time
    the screen should now be dark
    press the home button down and keep it down while plugging in the lead to the phone, the apple logo should appear and then the pic of the USB on the screen, keep the button pressed all thru this and your pc should recognise the phone and open itunes (if its not already open )
    Hope this works

  • HT1688 i have a iphone 4 for my sisten from Unite State, I'm living in Dominican REpublic and i cant use the iphone here

    Hello i wanna desblock my iphone in dominicam republic
    IMEI: 01 326800 367768 6
    ICCID: Unknow

    Only the carrier it's locked to can authorize unlocking it.
    If the phone is displaying ICCID unknown, then it's a brick. That's a critical failure, usually caused by jailbreaking/hacking. It can not be fixed.

  • The lock screen background on my iPhone 5s is blurry. It wasn't that way when I bought it but I must have changed a setting. Does anyone know how to fix it?

    I can't figure out what it is that I have to do. I've only had the phone a day and have already messed it up. It's really annoying I can't find the setting to change it back. I don't even know what I did to change it to make it blurry in the first place. Can anyone help me?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings If yu can see the screen enough to do it)
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since you have a hardware problem.
