My iphone 5 is frozen after trying to charge through my laptop.

the iphone screen is displaying the itunes logo with an arrow below and then the image of the charger.  this occured after an itunes error on my laptop.  I have tried charging through my dock.  I also tried to reset but holding the  off button and home key.  that is not working.  has anyone else encountered this?

recovery mode
open itunes on computer
plug cable into computer not iOS device
turn phone off
hold home button and plug cable into phone.  do not release home button until an itunes graphic appears on device.
look to computer should have message about recovery mode click ok and restore
Peace, Clyde

    my iphone 4 stop working after trying toupdate, how can i reboot without itunes?

    If you mean it's in recovery mode, no. There is no way around it. It must be restored using a computer running iTunes.

  • My iphone is frozen after updating the iOS 7

    hi. Can anyone help me.  i have updated my iphone 4s with the new ios 7 and it is frozen after restarting.

    If your computer doesn't see the phone when you plug it in, you may have to take it to an Apple Store.

  • Iphone went off after trying to update to iOS 8.1.3

    My iphone went off while trying to update to iOS 8.1.3

    Hey cliffordmien, 
    That is not good so lets see if we can get it back up for you. Try restarting your iPhone and try the update again. If you still have issues then you may need to update your iPhone through iTunes. If you restart your iPhone and it is booting up to the plug in to iTunes graphic you will need to restore it with iTunes.

  • TS1538 Iphone frozen after trying to update to 5.1.1

    Help!
    My friend is in pieces, she has tried to update to 5.1.1.  She wanted to sync beforehand to itunes but it told her to update to 5.1.1 so she did and now the phone is frozen.  It's telling her to restore her phone.  If I tell her to do a hard reset (home+sleep button) will she lose her data that's on her phone right now?

    1.  There is no such thing as a "hard" (or "soft") reset in iPhone terminology.  What you described is actually called just a reset, or phone reset.  See the User Guide, Appendix B
    2. Resetting as above doesn't delete any data, but probably won't help if the phone is telling her to restore.
    3. Restoring may lose data if she never backed up previous to updating.
    4. Worrying about losing data is pointless if the phone is nonfunctional and can't access it anyway.  It may already be gone or corrupted.
    5. We all know it's you, not your friend, with this problem...

  • Ipod touch now frozen after trying to upgrade from 1st gen to 3.1.1

    I've got a 1st gen ipod touch and bought the upgrade software from i-tunes to upgrade it to 3.1.1 so I can add apps to my ipod touch. It started off well but then just froze!! My ipod touch has the apple logo and a progress bar which is partly completed. I left it for ages and nothing progress and when I checked Itunes it said it was no longer responding. I shut itunes down and tried to restart it but it just keeps saying its not responding. Any idea on what I can do to get my Ipod touch back to 1st gen or to complete the upgrade to 3.1.1?

    - Try resetting the iPod;
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Next connect to computer and try to restore via iTunes- Next see if placing the iPod in recovery mode will allow a restore. For recovery mode:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    - If you can't turn the iPod off (e.g., logo, spinning wheel) always shows, let the battery fully drain.  After charging for an hour try the above again.

  • Hello. I recently bought an Iphone 5S. I tried to charge it with the original charger that came with the phone and it doesn´t work...The cable is good, I´m charging the phone via my PC. I read many answers posted here but no one helped me. Thanks in

    Hello. I have a new Iphone 5S and the charger taht came with the phone doesn´t charge my Iphone. The cable is good because I´m charging the phone via my PC. I tried every recomendation posted here but none helped me...I live in Argentina and we don´t have local support here, I would´ve ask for a new one but it´s not an option here. Does anyone know what can I do? Thanks in advance. Regards.

    I live in China as well and my iPhone5s is the model A1530 I bougth outside China. I have the same problem as Nikatnight with the iPhone while the iPad Air (wifi only) is working like a charm. It must be definitely something related to the carrier since I was abroad few days ago and everything worked well.
    If you pay attention at the source of your maps, you'll discover they are provided by AutoNavi instead of TomTom and make them appear in chinese with their own border interpretation. Queries are only acceppted in Chinese (p.e. if I type in english "Los Angeles International Airport"  it replies it cannot locate it)
    I suppose everything will be fine when you'll be out of censorship....
    Perhaps iOS  Apple Maps are absolutely useless for expatriate in China.
    Use Google Maps instead
    BTW, I'm surprised how much Apple might prostrate towards hard power Governments.... No matter what, money are always on top!

  • Touch is frozen after trying to install 2.0 update

    I just unpacked my refurbished 16gb ipod touch, installed the latest version of itunes and even was able to throw a few songs on it. Trouble stuck when I tried dloading (purchased and paid for!) the 2.0 update so I could install the free games and aps etc. It took me to a screen where it said it would download and sync which could take up to 30 minutes. Only took about 8. I think it was 2 hundred something MB. So the progress bar looks like it is working, then I get an error message 5 min later with a number, 1602 I think it was. I'm not sure because I am unable to get to that point again. After that it says I should restore to factory settings, I will lose all my songs and installed aps blah blah, so I say yes do it cus this thing is f'ed. Then the progress bar comes up again and a different error message to follow (1604?). Now it is in this frozen state with a picture of the usb cord being plugged into the itunes icon ??? Has anyone else experienced this or had a similar problem? I called the customer support after hours (will call them tomorrow) and was chatting with this robot and there wasn't even an option for what I am describing in his list of 'frozen images' schpeal. There was the 'frozen apple' image, 'syncing to ipod' image and others but this sounds like a new one. HELP!
    Thanx

    it's just happened to me today too when i tried to install the 2.0 update
    and it happens everytime i try to update my ipod touch
