Something went wrong during startup, now my iphone wont even restore? I've tried turning everything on and off, but a pic of the itunes and usb stays on the screen and my computer tells me it cant restore it!

during installation something went awol.
Ive tried resetting the iphone, computer, and itunes.
my computer is still telling me it cant restore my iphone!

When the computer says that it can't restore your phone does it give a specific error code?

  • My ipad went blank last night for no apparent reason.  It was on one minute, and then completely dark.  I didn't touch it, it just seemed to have died.  I tried turning it back on/off, but nothing happens.  Anyone else have a similar situation?

    Thansk for the reply King_Penguin...let me elaborate and see what you think...I had the ipad2 in the office and saw the battery was getting really low.  I tried charging it with the iphone charger (connects to my pc at work).  It took a while, but it got enough juice in the ipad2 to bring it back to life.  when I got home, I hooked it up, and got to about 50%.  All was fine, then I was attempting to hook it up to my TV with the AV adapter (or VGA adapter, whatever it is), left the ipad alone for a minute, came back to it, and that's when it went dark.  I tried the home/sleep buttons, but only for about 5 seconds...any other suggestions in case that doesn't work?  Thanks again...

  • Something went wrong upgrading to iCloud.

    I got the message that something went wrong with upgrading to iCloud. What to do? Just trying again looks silly.

    No, I bloody hate that feature of Vista and turned it off long ago!
    I think you’re on the money with the permissions thing because the digging around on the net, which I read seems to points to that.
    But as I say there is loads of conjuncture and advice but no solutions

  • Restore iphone 4 to install the ios 5 but something went wrong while doing back up and whenever i connect the phone to itunes theres an error and the phone turn off after 1min

    by reset option do you mean the DFU restore? worked for me, have you tried that?
    if not - hold the lock and home button until the power down bar comes up. then hold the lock button for ten seconds - next continue to hold the lock button and press the home button for ten seconds - next release the lock button and hold the home button for 10 seconds. this should be done with the phone tethered. If done right and your itunes is configured as such, the phone will reload the drivers and start up itunes, and then prompt for a restore/update.

    While upgrading my iPhone 3GS to iOS 4.2 something went wrong and came up with the message "The iPhone could not be restored. An unknown error occurred  [1015]." Now it will not start at all. It just stays on screen with USB and the iTune picture. What can I do to get it going again. I only tried to upgrade because I was prompted to up-grade and now I am helpless. I did a backup before starting the upgrade. The error message did not tell what to do next.  Any help is very much appreciated.

    Usually that means the iPhone was hacked to unlock it from the original
    carrier .
    Updating the operating system locks it back to that original carrier
    You could try this

    However if the iPhone was hacked it is probably a paper weight  now
    and as this is an Apple hosted forum  you can get no further help here

    Since iOS 7.1 my phone won't turn on and is asking me to connect to iTunes. I connect to itunes and it says it needs to be restored. Not sure why. I try to restore it and then it says something went wrong and it won't work. So I've been without my phone for a couple days now. It gives me error code (29). The phone almost reboots and then 3/4 of the way through it gives me the error message.

  • Can't login to hotmail on only firefox - "Something went wrong and we can't sign you in right now. Please try again later."

    I have cleared cache and cookie and keep getting this message when i try to log into hotmail. Only happens in Mozilla, not other browsers. "Something went wrong and we can't sign you in right now. Please try again later."
    It's been 10 days and nothing works.

    It is possible that the <i>cookies.sqlite</i> file that stores the cookies is corrupted if clearing cookies doesn't work.
    Rename (or delete) <b>cookies.sqlite</b> (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete other present cookies files like <b>cookies.sqlite-journal</b> in the Firefox profile folder in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.

  • Help, I can't sign in to Visual Studio Community 2013 "Something went wrong and we can't sign you in right now. Please try again later."

    Hi, can anyone help me further diagnose?
    On Windows 7 64-bit, whenever I try to sign into Visual Studio Community 2013 I get a bunch of clicking sounds, and then  "Something went wrong and we can't sign you in right now. Please try again later."
    I installed the 2013 update 4 just recently (3/23)
    I was getting this error back in February

    Hi HuggyPaul,
    Thank you for posting in MSND forum.
    >>whenever I try to sign into Visual Studio Community 2013 I get a bunch of clicking sounds, and then  "Something went wrong and we can't sign you in right now. Please try again later."
    Based on your issue, I suggest you could try to use an another microsoft live-in user account to sign in the Visual Studio Community 2013 to check if you can sign in the VS2013 Community with update 4.
    Or you could try to use same user account to sing same version of VS2013 Communty with Update 4 on other machien and the check if you can sign in this VS 2013 Community with update 4.
    (1)If you could sign in the VS2013 Community update4 by the another user account on your machien, I think that the issue maybe related to your user account.
    (2)If you still could not sign in VS 2013 Community update 4, maybe you will need to repair or re-install this VS2013 Community with update 4.
    In addition, please tell me what browser you use on your machine.
    If your machien just insatall other browser such as chrome, please try to install the IE and then check this issue again.
    From this error message, i find a similar thread about your issue, maybe it can help you.
