    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.

  • HT201210 iPhone 4 stuck in recovery mode and will not restore.

    My iPhone 4 randomly turned off a few days ago and wouldnt turn back on. I plugged it into iTunes which said it was in recovery mode but will not restore as error 1600 keeps propping up. Someone please help, I have tried lots of ways but none are working.

    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:
    If you have a problem getting into recovery mode then try: RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode.
    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.

  • 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.

  • Iphone 4 went into recovery mode when trying to restore, only option available now is to "restore and update" however this will not work, how can you restore from a backup once in recovery mode and only option is "restore and upgrade"? Please help!

    iPhone 4 went into recovery mode when trying to restore it. Now the only option iTunes allows is for "restore & upgrade", it is not offer an option to restore from a backup, says that must first do the upgrade, when attempting to do the upgrade the iPhone won't accept it.
    How can I restore from a back up in recovery mode when the only option is "restore and upgrade"?
    Please help.

    You don't you must restore your phone first and then you will have the option to restore from your backup.

  • IPhone 4 stuck on Recovery Mode. Can't Restore :(

    So I was trying to downgrade my iPhone's iOS from 4.3.5 to 4.2.1 so it successfully worked with RedSn0w.
    Then when i rebooted my iPhone the iTunes Cable Screen Showed even if i remove the cable from my PC, when Iopen my iPhone, the iTunes Cable would still show up.
    Then when i plugged it into my PC the details came out of my iTunes shows:
    It says it's on Recovery Mode but i Tried RecBoot to exit the Recovery mode but it keeps on coming back. Now I can't restore, an error occurs if I restore. HEEELPPP me kill the recovery mo! i don't wanna go to an Apple Store as far as I can...

    I forgot to say that I did edit the hosts file and removed all lines containing apple.com and yet I still get the same 3194 error.

  • Iphone 5C stuck in Recovery Mode and will not restore

    Hi there, iv'e come across what seems to be quite a common problem at the moment.
    I tried to update my 5C to the latest firmware this morning and apparently something went wrong. The update was fine up until about 3/4 way through and then i recived an error message, error (12) to be specific, It now seems to be completely stuck in Recovery Mode as it continues to do the same thing when i try to restore it. Iv'e had previous iphones thta have went into Recovery mode but i easly got past this issue. Nothing i do seems to be helping it, iv'e tried restoring it about 10 times and the same error comes up every time. Iv'e uninstalled and re installed Itunes and still nothing.
    other than taking it to the apple store does anyone have any advice?
    (Windows Fire Wall is also turned off)
    Thank you!

    FIRST, edit your hosts file (which was corrupted by the jailbreak process) and remove any references to gs.apple.com; delete the whole lines and save the file. If you don't know how to do this you will have to get help, and it shows that jailbreaking was a bigger mistake than you thought.
    Next, connect to a USB port directly on the computer, not a hub and disconnect all USB devices that consume power or bandwidth (like USB drives).
    Put it into DFU mode to restore. With the phone disconnected hold HOME and SLEEP until a black screen appears. Immediately release SLEEP and continue holding HOME. While holding connect to iTunes and continue holding. After a while (perhaps several minutes) iTunes should recognize the phone. When it does release the HOME button and hope for the best.

  • HT201263 iPhone 4 is in recovery mode but iTunes can not restore it.. Says unknown error occurred  (21) HELP!

    I've just got back of holiday and while there my phone decided to turn itself off, it would not come back on unless I plugged it into the wall charger, it said that I had to connect it to iTunes, but being on holiday I couldn't.
    So when I got home yesterday I plugged it into my laptop and the Apple logo came on, and then went off again, then back on and off again, it was doing this untill I unplugged it. So I put it into recovery mode and it said Connect to iTunes, so I did. It then said that the phone needed to be restored, iTunes started this process, 'extracting software' it said, and then once that was done it said 'preparing iPhone for restore' but then my phone disconnects itself from the laptop and then connects again then disconnects again. Then iTunes comes up with a message saying 'iTunes can not restore this iPhone 'iPhone', a unkown error occured (21)'
    I have tried over and over again to try and do this but it keeps coming up with the same.
    Does anyone know what's wrong with my iPhone and how I can fix it?
    Thanks

    And what did the error message say?

  • IPad Mini keeps restarting during recovery mode!?

    I bought an iPad Mini a couple of months ago,as a joke my aunt put a password for my iPad, i kept trying to open it, until i hit the disabled screen connect to itunes, i searched the web and found a waay out of it, so when i start recovery mode on my laptop, it does the iPad Software Update first. The iPad restartes during the restore and i have to do the restore one more time but it just happens again, PLZ HELP!!

    Maybe:
    Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
    Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
    Next try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.

  • I have an iphone 5 and it is locked and I can't remember making a passcode so I tried backing it up on itunes and putting it on recovery mode but it still doesn't work

    I have an Iphone 5 and it is locked and I can't remember making a passcode so I tried backing it up and putting it in recovery mode on itunes but it still didn't work.

    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.
