Shut off iPhone during software update

When I was doing an iTunes software update straight from my iPhone, not thinking I held down my power button trying to turn it off and end the update and just keep it as it was. But now i can't start my phone. Can I fix this in a way that won't cost a fortune?

  • HT1222 I started the lastest iPhone 5s software update then my phone just shut down and will not turn back on. I've tried the home button, the button plus the top right button together for 20 sec, plug it in and nothing

    I started the lastest iPhone 5s software update then my phone just shut down and will not turn back on. I've tried the home button, the button plus the top right button together for 20 sec, plug it in and nothing

    Plug your device into the original charger & block in a wall outlet and leave it alone for a couple of hours. Then, while it is still plugged in, restart it by holding down the home button and the power button for 10-15 seconds until you see the Apple, then let go.

  • Preparing iPhone for software update???

    I just updated iTunes and tried syncing my iPhone. I then downloaded the new iPhone software update and it went to "preparing iPhone for software update." It's been like this for an hour now, and I can't do anything. I can't even close iTunes. Has this happened to anyone? How long did it take your phone to prepare for "software update"? What should I do? Help....

    Spent 93 minutes on the phone with support. Could not solve the problem of getting out of the restore loop. As a last resort they said to use another computer to restore the iPhone. Went to my iMac and it worked, but back on my G4 I still can't sync to iTunes, Doesn't even open up when I plug in the phone!
    And all my data was lost during the restore. Lot of people out there with this problem!!! hope theyn come up with a fix soon,

  • LOST MY CONTACT DURING SOFTWARE UPDATE

    I LOST MY CONTACTS DURING SOFTWARE UPDATE A WEEK AGO , TRIED TO RESTORE FROM MY LAST BACK UP HELD ON MAY 16, BUT FAILED , AM EVEN SURE I'V SELECTED ALL DATA BACKUP FOR ANY OF MY PREVIOUS BACKUP , TRIED TO RESTORE FROM ANY BUT FAILED , TRIED THE GMAIL CONTACTS ALSO FAILED , WONDERING WHERE MY CONTACTS I'VE SAVED FOR MORE THEN 10 YEARS ARE GONE ....AM TOTTALY DISSAPOINTED SINCE AM A BLACKBERRY USER SINCE 5 YEARS ,  ALWAYS SUPPORTED  BLACKBERRY AGAINST IPHONE USERS , ALL MY FREINDS ARE NO MORE USING BLACKBERRY AND SWITCHED TO IPHONE OR SAMSUNG , AM HAVING AN EMPTY BBM LIST NOW , BUT  STILL SUPPORTING AND EVEN BOUGHT THE Z10 FIRST WEEK OF RELEASE , I WOULD UNDERSTAND THAT A TECHNICAL PROBLEM HAPPENED DURING THE SOFTWARE UPDATE , BUT CANT UNDERSTAND THE USELESS BACK UP I'VE ALWAYS DOING ! AND THE WORSE IS THAT LAST SOFTWARE UPDATE TURNED THE Z10 TO A WORSE MOBILE.

    Hum, it is worrying...
    So... your contacts seem to be on:
    Gmail,
    your previous backups.
    -Solutions:
    if all your contacts are on Gmail: copy them manually on your device,
    they are a priori all in your backups: wait that Link won't be in Beta anymore, and then restore.
    P.S.:
    You make backups and don't register your contacts on SIM, is it possible ? Personally, I rarely register contacts on SIM. If there is a malware, it can be charged from the SIM to the Phone, this is why.

  • How can you restore photos lost during software update on iTunes?

    How do you restore or even find photos lost during software update of iphone 4 on iTunes?

    Why did you not back it up before performing the update? Did you perform the update on a computer other than the one you normally sync with?
    As already stated, if you didn't back it up, the data is now gone.

  • HT5362 How do I turn off notifications for Software Updates? 'App Store' doesn't show in the list of notification apps. I want the background checks for updates, just not the notifications.

    How do I turn off notifications for Software Updates?
    In the 'Notifications' section of the 'System Preferences' app, there is no tab for managing the notifications of System Updates nor App Store.
    Hey--- I like auto-checking for updates, and hey--- I like auto-downloading them in the background.
    BUT I do not like being notified of updates in the middle of working! Especially when it's iTunes updates. Grrrr.
    Any chance this is easy and I just missed it?

  • HT202157 My Apple TV blocked during software update. What should I do?

    My Apple TV blocked during software update. What should I do?

    You can't do much else besides pull the plug. If it causes further problems you should be able to restore as below:
    Get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
    Open iTunes.
    Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.
    On the other hand you may be able to simply start the update again. If however the update continues to fail, you should try the restore routine above.

  • Error message during software updates

    I am constantly receiveing the following error message during software updates. This time it happened with an HP printer update, but it has happened with iTunes and Safari as well. Does anyone know what I need to do?
    The system extension “/System/Library/Extensions/GeneIOUSBCFSubclass.kext” was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product’s vendor for an update
    Thanks!

    Try using Help > Updates from one of your CS6 applications.
    When you return home, you might try uninstalling CS6 and reinstalling it again. It sounds like some stuff may have become corrupted.
