Terrible problem - The restore after updating iPhone 4 to ios 7.1 isn't accepted

Hello everybody!
All my story begins when I switched the data between 2 phones - iphone 3GS and iphone 4. I've done a backup to each of the phones at itunes and then i've done a restore on the other one. The restores went well and the data has switched successfuly.
After that I updated the iphone 4 to the ios 7.1, also with the itunes [and before that I did a backup again]. At the first settings after the update, i've been asked about my language etc, and then i've been asked if I want to define it as a new iphone / restore from icloud / restore from itunes - so i'v chosen the last option.
Unfortunately, after the restore has ended i've just backed to the start point - the same first settings questions has been asked again as I didn't do the restore. Then I've tried to do the restore again and I finished with the same result.
In the meantime I don't have a phone during the last 24 hours, and because my all work is with this phone - I find it as a very terrible problem for me!
Please help to a desperate man like me!!
Thank you very much,
Idan.

I'm happy to say that I solved the problem, and for the community (for the "next generation" that will search a solution for this problem) - I will publish the solution for this problem : I defined as new iphone, and then the restore showed up!
All wishes everyone...

Fuzzy horizontal lines on the screen after updating iphone 4 to ios 7

After updating from ios 6 to ios 7.0.2 on iphone 4 the image rendering on the screen get worse, showing a lot of fuzzy horizontal lines everywhere.
I spot this problem while brosing trough the home screen or when the phone is locked.
I already updated to the newest version (7.0.3) but the problem seems to persist.
When I open the Camera app the problem reach the highest ratio of fuzzy lines making impossible to me to recognize subjects!
Someone know how to solve this problem?
Many thanks for considering my request,
anthartic

Perform a hard reboot
Hold down the Home button and Power button on your iPhone or iPad and keep holding them until you see the Apple logo. Once you do, you can let go. When your device boots back up, go ahead and check to see if the apps have started re-downloading. If they still appear to be stuck, continue on.

SSince Apple does not support downgrading the iOS I suggest you start a new question that gives a good title to a specific problem. Then in the body of the thread describe the problem in detail, tell us what steps you have tried so far to correct the problem, what happened, and what error messages you received.

Are you uninstalling just iTunes? Because if so, you actually have to uninstall five separate programs, and THEN reinstall.

Problem for Restoring after Updating to iOS5

I saw on the phone, it stated updated completed for iOS5 BUT on the iTunes still updating.. so i pluck out and see but the phone installed back ALL my unwanted apps again and therefore I plug in to iTunes again thinking that i can sync to my previous setting... the sync process got hang and so I clicked on the restore button and NOW... all my SMS text messages and other bookmarks all gone... managed to sync back contacts...
Anyonne can help??

Just throwing in my 2¢, I'm having the same problem. For what it's worth, I noticed previously that even when the iPad said 'Not Charging' (while it was plugged in to my PC, for example) it WAS charging, albeit slowly. This was prior to OS5. Now I'm noticing it in places I wasn't seeing it before the recent OS update, like at virtually all of the charging 'stations' scattered around our house (we're a multi-I device family!) Before the update, I could plug the iPad in and recharge it from about 20% or slightly less all the way to 100% in about 6 hours overnight. After the update, 5.5 hours took me from 14% to 54%.
Apple, your "solution" is only a different flavor of problem. You need to do better than this.

HT201210 After updating iPhone 4S to iOS 7, the lock screen will not accept my password.

After updating my iPhone 4S to iOS 7, the lock screen will not accept my password and I am locked out of my phone. Anyone else seeing this? What can I do to fix this?

Hello kennyred,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
Connect the device to the computer with which you normally sync and open iTunes.
Note: If iTunes asks you to enter the passcode, try another computer that you have synced with. Otherwise, go to "If you have never synced your device with iTunes, or you do not have access to a computer" section below.
If the device is still disabled, or if iTunes does not automatically sync your device, sync the device with iTunes.
If you have chosen to encrypt your backup, it will contain the passcode. Disable backup encryption before restoring from backup. Learn more about iOS backups in iTunes.
When the backup and sync is complete, select Restore from Backup and choose the most recent backup of your device.
Best of luck,
Mario

HT201401 Speakers will not work after updating iPhone 4 to iOS. Apple Store said there are no speakers available which will work with the iOS6. Does anyone know where to get speakers which will work with iOS6?

After updating my iPhone4 to iOS6 my speakers do not work. The Apple store after troubleshooting said that none of the speakers they sell will work with iOS6. Does anyone have any suggestions for obtaining speakers which will work with iOS6?

That's a bunch of hogwash. My 4S is running iOS 6 and works with all my external speakers, both at home and at work.

After updating iPhone 3gs to IOS 5 has no service and battery drains in like 30 minutes

after updating my iphone 3gs to the IOS 5 firmware my phone has no service it says searching then goes back to no service i tried reseting it contacting ATT and they could not figure out the problem what can i do also the battery drains faster like in 10 to 30 minutes is fully drained. Was not doing this before the update please help

Perform a restore without restoring from a backup and see if that resolves the issue. You could erase the phone from the phone itself if you don't want to mess with iTunes. I'd just backup with iCloud before doing this to make it really easy.
Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content and Settings
Post back with your results. If that doesn't resolve your problem, you're more than likely looking at a hardware problem on the phone, which is probably out of warranty by now.

Apps scattered after updating iPhone 4 to iOS 6

After I updated my phone to iOS 6 and sync'd my apps again, the apps no longer appear sequentially on succeeding pages. The first page has the standard apps that come with a new phone. The 2nd page has only one app, and this is also true of the 3rd page. Then, on the next page, my third-party apps start appearing. Has anyone else had this problem? Could somebody please tell me how to fix this? Is this an Apple bug?
