  • My iphone 5 is frozen on the screen that shows a cable and itunes symbol.  I can not get the phone to enter DFU mode and itunes does not recognize the phone when plugged in to itunes.  The phone was mid update when it was disrupted....

    I plugged my iphone in to do an update and it was mid way through the update when the phone was accidentally disconnected.  Now the phone is stuck on the screen that shows a cable and the iTunes image suggesting the phone needs to be plugged in to iTunes.  I have plugged it in, powered on and off, attempted to enter DFU mode numerous times all with no success.  ITunes does not recognize the phone and I continue to only receive the screen saying I need to plug in to iTunes..  Please help!

    Hold Sleep Button with Home Button toghether until it restarts Always it takes 8 to 15 seconds, after it restarts leave the sleep button and remember do not leave the home button it automaticlly switches to DFU mode.

    My iphone is stuck in recovery mode and itunes will not recognize my phone. I've tried pretty much every trick i can and i still do not know what to do. Someone please help me

    I've done all of these, even trying a different USB port, and still, nothing. This is really confusing. Windows 8.1 said something to do with USB malfunction or something and nothing works. I need to restore my iPhone quickly and nothing has happened. My cable is not genuine Apple product. iTunes makes the noise that it makes when I connect the device, but it doesn't say 'iPhone is in recovery mode' or even say 'iPhone' in the corner. I am really fed up and would really appreciate a response.
    Thanks,
    Nathan.

  • My iphone 4s is stuck on recovery mode and itunes does not recognize it at all.

    Hi. Last night I left it updating 5.1.1 from 5.1 when I was going to bed. And at night I heard usb noise and woke up. iTunes had an error, I did not remember what is written there because I was sleepy. I think it was like 1612 error but I'm not sure.  There were an itunes logo and an usb wire on the phones screen. And I cant get rid of it. iTunes does not recognize the phone in "DFU mode" too. I need the phone today and I dont know what to do. Please help me. Sorry if my english is bad.

    This program got me out from the loop. I dont know sharing it here is legal or not. But it is the solution for this problem. However I'm still wondering why I faced a problem like that. Is an update is that hard?

  • IPad Air is stuck in Dfu mode and iTunes does not recognize

    Hello while i was restoring my ipad air and it wasn't going on so i disconnected my ipad air while "restoring" and it was in Recovery mode and i tried restore it again and it gaved me error 2005 and i put in dfu mode and tryed it again and it gave me same error 2005 and i tried disconnecting usb cable and connect again and then iTunes didn't recognize my iPad Air what can i do?

    Hey Ozan274,
    Thanks for the question. If your iPad is not recognized in iTunes while in recovery mode, follow the steps in this article:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    While you should follow all of the steps in the article, the applicable information is located in Step 5, sub-section titled “If the device is not recognized while in Recovery Mode”
    I also see that you are experiencing error 2005, which may be the root cause of your main issue. For more information, see this article:
    Resolve specific iTunes update and restore errors
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
    Check USB connections
    If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
    Common errors: 13, 14, 1600-1629, 1643-1650, 2000-2009, 4000, 4005, 4013, 4014, 4016, “invalid response”, and being prompted to restore again after a restore completes.
    To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
    - Use another USB cable.
    - Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
    - Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
    - Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
    - Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.
    If you see your error after changing your USB connections, continue to the next section to troubleshoot your hardware.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • I loaded the new OS on itouch and something went wrong and now it is in safe mode and itunes does not recognize it

    I was downloading the latest OS and it started to install. Before I knew it the compputer said there was problem installing it, the itouch was put into safe mode and now itunes doesn't see the itouch. I have tried to reinstall itunes. I have restarted the itouch. And nothing I have tried has worked.

    No knowing what safe mode is, all I can suggest is:
    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    i updated to ios 5.1.1 and added icloud services. the problem is now whenever i connect my iphone to my PC, itunes does not recognize my phone. i need it to but it just does not connect..

    Try the standard fixes to rule out a software problem:
    - Reset. Nothing is lost
    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.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
    If you still have the problem that points to a hardware problem. Yu can make an appointment at the the Genius Bar of an Apple store or try:

  • After installing iOS6 on my iPhone 4, iTunes does not recognize my phone as a device.

    After installing iOS6 on my iPhone 4, iTunes does not recognize my phone as a device. It no longer appears in the left devices column. I keep getting an error pop-up from Windows telling me "MobileDeviceService stopped working and was closed."
    Yes, I have the latest version of iTunes for Windows. And when I go into Preferences, it still lists my iPhone as a device back-up, and the date of the last back-up.
    What can I do to fix this?

    If your iTunes is the latest version, restart your computer and reboot your iPhone. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the iPhone restart. See if that fixes your problem.

    5. Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed
    If the device is not recognized while in Recovery Mode
    Note: If your device is working on its own and is not in recovery mode, this set of steps is not for you; do not manually place the device into recovery mode.
    Your device may not be recognized while in recovery mode. This can happen during an update or restore of your device. Typically when your device is in recovery mode, it will show the "Connect to iTunes" logo on its display. If iTunes does not recognize the device when in this state, try the following:
    Open the Device Manager:
    Windows XP: Click Start > Run. In the resulting dialog, type devmgmt.msc and press Return.
    Windows Vista or Windows 7: Click Start. In the dialog, type devmgmt.msc and press Return on the keyboard. If Windows needs your permission to continue, click "Continue".
    Windows 8: Move the cursor to the upper right corner, click the magnifying glass, type devmgmt.msc, and press Return.
    Click the plus icon (Windows XP and Vista) or the disclosure triangle () (for Windows 7 and 8) next to Imaging Devices, Other Devices, Portable Devices, and Universal Serial Bus Controllers to expand these sections.
    Check these sections for one or more entries called Apple Mobile Device (Recovery Mode). These entries may or may not have exclamation marks on them similar to the following:
    If you see only one "Apple Mobile Device USB Driver" entry that has no errors on it:
    If you see two "Apple Mobile Device (Recovery Mode)" entries with exclamation marks on them:

  • I dropped my iphone, it cracked (it alredy had some cracks in it) and the screen is black but sometimes has a background light.. When i plug it in to charge or to the computer it vibrates every 10 seconds and itunes does not recognize it. What can I do?

    I dropped my iphone 4 pretty hard, it cracked (although it already had a few cracks in it) and now the screen is black but sometimes has a background light turn on and then off. Holding the home button and off button at the same time do not work. When I plug it in to charge or to the computer it vibrates every 10 seconds and itunes does not seem to recognize it. It gets really really hot when plugged in (which I don't think is normal).  icloud does not recognize it under "find my iphone" either. What could the problem be? I am wondering if dropping it dislodged something inside. if so, what did I dislodge and is it possible to fix this myself?
    Thanks

    Sounds like that drop was a critical one, my friend. I would make an appointment at your nearest Apple Retail Store, because you're going to need a replacement. Also as a side note: the reason that the charger is making the phone vibrate over and over is because there is a disconnect somewhere in the charge port of the phone, causing it to plug in and out over and over.

  • Tried downloading new ios, now my phone is in recovery mode, and iTunes doesn't recognize my phone.

    I have an iPhone 5. I was on ios 6.0.1. and tried to update to the new software via my computer (a PC). I received an error mid-download and now my phone is stuck in recovery mode. However, my iTunes does not even recognize my phone or that it's in recovery mode. I've downloaded the most recent version of iTunes as well.

    Place the device in DFU mode (google it) then restore.

  • My iphone 5 is stuck on recovery mode and itunes is not detecting my phone when pluged in

    Placing your device into recovery (DFU-Device Firmware Upgrade) 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.
