Phone constantly restarting with ios5+
I upgraded to ios5 from 4.3.3 and my phone is constantly restarting itself every few minutes. I have tried to restore it and restore it in DFU, both from a back up and a new phone and nothing seems to fix it. I have also redownloaded ios5 to see if it was a dodgy download. The only way I can stop it is to turn wifi off altogether. This will make the phone stable but it still might restart once or twice a day. I was hoping 5.0.1 might fix something but that didnt change anything either.
Is anyone else having these problems or knows of a fix?
When you set up the new phone did you set it up as "restore from an icloud backup" or did you set up the phone as a "new phone" and then signed in with your apple id? If you chose "restore from an ic,oud backup" then there might be something wrong with your icloud backup. You can try restoring the phone as "erase all contents and settings" and when it asks you how you're setting up your phone you can chose "set up as new iphone" and then sign in with your apple id and you should get your contact synced over at least. You can then go to the itunes store and app store to manually download your purchases. Or you can plug in your old phone to your computer and use itunes to "back up to my computer" and once that is done you can plug in your new phone to your computer and use itunes to "restore from a bckup". Hopefully that is more helpful.
Also, what exactly did the Apple Store say as to why they "couldn't help you"?

I updated my 3gs to 6.1.3 now I can't get mail the phone constantly restarts itself and I can't get it to Restore thanks Apple what can I do?
Im having the same problem, I updated my Iphone 4S to 6.1.3, shortly after that my phone had no audio. It was working fine one minute and then stopped. Was listening to music when sound gave out on me. It wont ring, phone just vibrates even after turning off vibration option. I've tried all the options listed and nothing. My phone has never been jailbroken either. If I connect the earphones is works perfectly. On one of my last calls received, phone's ringtone was heard for about 2 seconds before muting and just vibrating. Ringtone sounded perfect, speakers did not sound damaged.
What else could be done? I've read several post regarding this and it seems like Apple has no solution to this yet. Very dissappointed. -
Phone constantly restarts/reboots
My phone is constantly restarting/rebooting it self. I have pulled the battery, I have plugged in the phone; nothing seems to work. I have not dropped, it has NOT gotten wet.
I'm at a loss for what to do. I need my phone. The only thing I can think that I have done within the last 24hrs with the phone is let the battery completely drain (which I have been told is good to do); battery was fully charged after.
What can I do?? Someone please help.Actually, whoever told you that about letting the battery completely drain is incorrect. Li-ion batteries should not be completely drained. It's possible the battery has been damaged. I would try replacing the battery and see if that solves the problem.

Phone constantly restart after update to 4.5 firmware
I updated the firmware from 4.2 to 4.5 on my Blackberry 8800. After that, it constantly restart. If I press "back" key before "Loading programs" messages, sometimes work. But, few minutes later restart again.
If I connect the phone with my PC, it keep on and work fine, but if disconect it, constantly restart again.
Please, could you help me? How do I solve it? The phone is barely useable after the update. Is it possible to downgrade the firmware or reinstall?

Ipod touch 3rd Gen not fully starting up - constantly restarting with the apple logo screen
Hi,
First of all, I cannot get my ipod touch (3rd Gen) to start up so I cannot get model specifics and version numbers - though it is iOS 5.1.1
I have obviously tried to restart it by holding the power and home button for 10 secs but this has not done anything.
At the moment, the ipod switches on and I see the black screen with the white apple logo - this stays on for about 3 minutes, then I get the little spinning circle (but it isn't spinning) for a couple of minutes, before it powers off and does this again... repeatedly. It only stopped because the battery power ran out.
I have connected it to my computer with the latest version of itunes - it appears in the devices list but just has a spinning 'loading' icon and is grayed out. As my ipod restarts the cycle again as above, my computer makes the noise as if i just plugged it back in and the above happens again in itunes.
The problem began when I updated apps (through update apps in app store) and it froze - I turned the ipod off to restart it, and now this is happening.
Any help or advice extremely grateful... I can't even access it to get it restored which is a bit of a problem as I have work notes on it. (Obviously I don't know if notes are backed up on ipod backups through itunes?)
Many, many thanks in advance!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.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I tried to update the software of my iphone 3gs while charging with my Macbook Pro. While the phone was restarting after installation, in the setting up my phone menu, it stops midway with a message in itunes on the laptop that there is no simcard.
Then put a SIM in. You cannot activate an iPhone without a compatible Sim.
If your iPhone was hacked/jailbroken the update restore the lock. -
I want to backup my phone before upgrading to ios5 but I get an error message: itunes could not back up the iphone because a session could not be started with the iphone.

Why does iPad 3 4G constantly restart after 8.3 update only when docked with iMac?
Why does iPad 3 4G constantly restart after 8.3 update only when docked with iMac?
That question is impossible to answer without more information. What troubleshooting steps have you performed? Did you try using another cable? Did you try using another USB port on the Mac? Did you reboot the Mac and reset the iPad? Have you tired restoring the iPad?

I am having serious issues with my iPhone 4s, phone constantly locks up
It locks into speaker phone mode all of the time and people can't here me on the other line. The only way to fix is to restart the phone. Happens with Blue tooth and headphones. No idea what is going on. Also having issues with browsing the web. Locks on Espn.com all of the time. Any thoughts?
weird, i would try to restore through iTunes and set up as new as a test.

We have two Iphone 4 handsets. I updated first handset with IOS5 and activated Icloud with my existing Itunes account details - no problems. I then did the same on the second handset and instead of setting up a different Icloud account for the second hanset I mistakenly used the same details as on the first handset and merged the contacts thinking it would add all contacts to both handsets but it instead replaced contacts from first handset with those from the second handset.
How do I get back my contacts from the first hanset?
I read somewhere Icloud saves the last 3 backups which suggests all my contacts that have disappeared are somewhere but how do i find them ???
Help ???Here's how to do it.
1. App Store, iTunes Store should have the same AppleID on Computer and iPhones. (Free to share apps, music and books... )
2. Person A uses the same purchasing account for everything (ie. email, contacts and ...).
3. Person B have the same purchase account see no. 1 (for App Store and iTunes Store) but create a second AppleID for iCal, e-mail, contacts and etc.
