Notified of iTunes update for iPhone; tried to download; phone inoperable all day. screen shows itunes logo and cable

I was notified of an iTunes update for my iPhone; I tried to download, but am just showing the screen with the iTunes logo and a picture of a cable end. Phone has been inoperable all day.

Hey there Gina,
It sounds like you were updating your phone, and now it is unresponsive with an iTunes and usb cable on the screen. This appears to be recovery mode, and you should be able to restore the device using the following article to get that install completed:
If you can't update or restore your iOS device
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
If not, then reset the device with the following article, and then attempt the restore with the above article:
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Sterling

    Same here. I tried to update my iPhone 5S and iPad 4 to 7.1 but iTunes wiped out them. This thing already happened for iOS 7.0.6 update. What happened to Apple? I am really curious whether Apple is aware of this problem.

  • I disconnected my iPad unconsciously while it was updating ios 7.0.4 and it just stuck on that screen showing apple logo and a loading bar that just won't move on what to do now ????

    It's not uncommon for it to not work the first time and sometimes, you have to try it a few times. Turn off your antivirus software and your firewall while you are trying to restore the iPad. Enable them again after you restore.
    If that still won't work, post back with detailed information as to what exactly does happen as you go through the process.

  • ITunes Apps for iPhone/iPod Not Downloading Correctly

    I apologize if this problem has been already stated and solved somewhere, because I could not find any help on the issue.
    My problem is that when I checked for updates on iTunes it showed that I had 4 apps available for update. When I chose to update them all at once, the downloading menu shows all 4 apps queued for download. Now after all 4 apps have downloaded, my Update Menu for apps still shows that 2 of my apps are available for download. When I check it is the same 2 apps that I had downloaded the update for. I have downloaded them again 3 times already and each time still shows those 2 apps as still available for update. It is very annoying and isn't the first time it has happened. It started occurring last week for 2 other incidents.

    Many of us are having exactly the same issue. I have four Apps ready to download updates yet they still download the existing version. I think it is a problem with the App Store database not updating at the same time an App update is made available.

  • HT1386 How to get the newest iTunes update for iPhone 3gs -not available?

    I am not able to get the latest update and it is effecting what apps I can use now and or download to my iphone. Is there a way to upgrade on my 3gs?

    Or am I just stuck with the 6.1.6
    Correct. Apple has discontinued the 3GS, & the fact is it does not possess the hardware to run iOS 7.0 or higher.

  • I want to know what happened to my ipod cause for exemple, when I turn on sometimes all the screen appears with lines and everything look like lines and I have to turn off again..

    I want to know what happened to my ipod, cause after a while that it was off when I want to run in on it gets lines, like if that would be broken and I have to turn off again..

    What generation is your iPod? My sister's 2g/3g(I'm not sure which) was doing something similar, but it would put a different graphic on the screen every time. We took it in to the apple store and they didn't determine what it was. One thing they said to try was to restore it and gradually add content on to see if it's an app or something loaded on it. If that doesn't work then they said it's probably something in the software or firmware. They gave her the option of getting one exactly like the one she had or getting the new one like I have. She ended up getting the new one on sale at target.

    Hi Davin12,
    I'm sorry to hear you are having issues acessing the iTunes Store from your Windows computer.
    The article below may be able to help you with this issue.
    Click on the link below to see more details and screenshots. 
    I've quoted some helpful highlights for you:
    iTunes for Windows: iTunes Store connection troubleshooting
    Remove pop-up blockers
    Some pop-up or ad-blocking programs may interfere with the ability of iTunes to connect to the iTunes Store. Removing them in many cases will resolve the issue.
    Flush DNS Setting in Windows
    In some cases, the DNS information you computer uses to connect to the Internet needs to be reset. Follow these instructions to flush your Windows DNS information:
    Windows XP
    On the Start menu, click Run.
    In the Open field type cmd and click OK.
    In the resulting window, type ipconfig /flushdns and press Return on the keyboard.
    You should see a message that the DNS Resolver Cache has been successfully flushed.
    Windows Vista and Windows 7
    On the Start menu, point to All Programs > Accessories and then right-click Command Prompt and chooseRun as Administrator from the shortcut menu. If Windows needs your permission to continue, click Continue.
    In the resulting window, type ipconfig /flushdns and press Return on the keyboard.
    You should see a message that the DNS Resolver Cache has been successfully flushed.
    Note: If, in the command prompt, you see this message: "The requested operation requires elevation", close the command prompt and repeat steps 1 and 2 above to be sure that Administrator privileges are used to access to Command Prompt.

  • Why do i always get a message saying that the when trying to dowload the software update for iphone 4? it is a brand new handset and a clean install of itunes.

    i am trying to update my iphone 4 to the latest software version as promted on itunes and it gives me a timed out message. and an error code (err = 3259) it was downloading fine and then once it reached the end of the download it just stopped and gave me the error message. does anyone know why it would be doing this? i have only just recieved my iphone 4 today and i only installed itunes on my laptop which has never had itunes installed on previously.
    also just a random one, the usb lead i have got for my new phone doesnt seem very durable...and i know my last usb lead went funny, and ive seen friends who have had to resort in wire tape....does anyone know if the usb lead is covered by the warrenty?

    You might find this article helpful: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
    It has the error range of 3000's which states
    Errors 3000-3999 (3002, 3004, 3013, 3014, 3018, 3164, 3194, and so on): Error codes in the 3000 range generally mean that iTunes cannot contact the gs.apple.com server on ports 80 or 443. This may be because out-of-date or incorrectly configured security or firewall software is interfering, an old version of iTunes is installed, an entry in your hosts file redirecting requests to gs.apple.com (see error 1004 above), or because of your Internet proxy settings. If you are using a proxy, try without using one or with a known-good network. If that does not resolve the issue, follow iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software issues. Error 3014 may indicate that you need to free up more disk space on the computer before trying to restore again. Error 3194 most likely indicates you do not have the latest version of iTunes installed Update to the latest version of iTunes.

    Hey saandyy,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    You can try to restart the iPhone to exit recovery mode.

    Recovery mode erases your device and restores it, which should resolve the issue. If you previously synced with iTunes or iCloud, you may be able to restore from your backup after recovery.
