The iTunes Logo and Cable on screen
Hi there...
I bought my iPhone last Dec. 2007 in the apple store in Florida
When first opened the box and put the phone on, the apple logo first came out then after that appeared the iTunes logo on top and the cable at the bottom. All i can do with the phone is emergency calls... I haven't touched the phone in any way...
is there something wrong with the phone? is it true that all iPhones 1.1.2 behave this way?
Thanks
You posted the same question yesterday which was answered.

No - and as already answered, the iPhone is sold in the U.S. as carrier locked with at&t only. None of the iPhone functions work (with the exception of being able to make an emergency call) until the iPhone is activated with at&t. It has always been this way since day 1 and will remain this way at least for the next 4+ years or so. Apple signed a 5 year exclusive agreement with at&t for the iPhone sold in the U.S.
The iPhone is sold in the UK as carrier locked with O2 only, in Germany as carrier locked with T-Mobile only, and in France as carrier locked with Orange and Apple sells an unlocked iPhone in France at a significantly higher price. Selling an unlocked phone is required by French law but the unlocked iPhone sold in France can be used with GSM network providers in France only.

Bad restore; just itunes logo and cable on screen
Brand new iPad mini. Connected it to my pc. Asked for a restoration. An error occurred. Now there is nothing. Just the itunes logo and a usb cable on the screen. Thank you.
Hello magoonregla,
Here are some resources that may assist with resolving the issue you are seeing.
First I would try to restore the device again in the same way, refer to this article if needed:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
You may need to restart or even reset the iPad.
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
IF these steps do not resolve the issue then I recommend using this article that should help isolate the issue preventing the restore from completing successfully.
iOS: Resolving update and restore alert messages

All the very best,

Major help please.
Bought my ipad yesterday and the sync all worked fine. I needed to wipe it which worked but now it wont restore and the ipad wont go past the itunes logo with the connecting wire on the front screen and when it sometimes does, after the restore there is an error (1604)
stressing.
help would be much appreciated.CT782-
How long did you wait? It might just take a while.
Could the computer's USB port have gone to sleep? I would try disconnecting the iPad and reconnecting it, to see if that is what iTunes is waiting for.
If there is another USB port, try that one too.

My iphone is no longer working I have black screen with a picture of the itunes logo and a USB cable. When I try to connect my iphone to itunes the device is not detected, can anyone help me? I desperatley need my phone back
I have had a 3GS for 2+ years. After upgrading to IOS 4 (now 4.3.5) I began having problems. In the past week, my screen went to the itunes logo and USB cable twice -- unprovoked -- just found it sitting there like that! I connected to itunes and it did restore from a backup but it is a major inconvenience. I am also searching for answers, but better back-up regularly!

My iPad was disconnected during upgrade. I've tried restoring and resetting. I just did an iPad erase in "find my iphone" and it still shows the itunes logo and the fire-wire cable on the screen with an arrow. It's currently plugged into my computer. How do I remedy this?

I awoke this morning to find my iPhone 3g in recovery mode. I tried rebooting, charging, and when I connected to iTunes it gave me a message saying I had to finish recovery first. My screen shows the iTunes logo and the USB cable. Any ideas?

My iPad has the iTunes logo and USB cable on the screen. Can I still back up my music and photos?
My iPad has the Itunes logo and USB cable on screen. Can I still back up my files?
If you haven't already done so, its unlikely.
You can try holding both the home and power buttons at the same time until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go. -
When i plug in my iPhone to itunes so i could restore because i found it, itunes gives me error code 2009. on my iPhone, all that is displayed on the screen is the itunes logo and a usb cable saying to connect it to itunes. Help please?
Error 2000-2009 (2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, and so on)
If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software. -
I just finished downloading and attempting the install of ios 7 on my iPhone 5. I'm using the newest version of iTunes.
And now, I'm stuck at the screen with the iTunes logo and the plug. But no matter how many times I try, recovery mode will not work. My phone is currently useless unless I can figure this out.No problem, glad to help!
Update: my PC USB hub was connected to a USB 3 port, I connected the 30 pin cable directly to my PC, And the restore worked just fine. Restored phone from iCloud backup and seems to be working fine. -
I just bought a new ipad 2, but cannot use it as it only shows the itunes logo and a cable. This means it's telling me to connect to itunes. I've done this and performed sync, still no way out. I have been told by friends to "unlock" it. Please how?
Have you already activated the iPad? That is what the screen is telling you to do - connect to the computer with the supplied cable and run iTunes while connected - and iTunes should guide you through the set up process. If you have already set up the iPad and you are still getting thos screen message - restore your iPad. You must be running iTunes 10.5 on your computer as well.
Restore iPad
If you can't restore this way, you will need recovery mode.

My Ipad has locked with Itunes logo and cable displayed on a black screen. Cant do anything
My Ipad has locked on a black screen with only the Itunes music logo together with an arrow and a cable white photo display. Turning it on and off achieves nothing, only the Itunes circle and cable appear each time. What can I do to rectify?
I uploaded iOS 7 and the ipad came up with a black screen with pictures of iTunes logo and power cord. It wouldn't turn off or respond to any actions. A terrifying moment. I followed some suggestions from these discussions, connected iPad to Macbook with iTunes open and prayed. It took 3 separate times to completely reset the iPad, because of several "errors" that would occur throughout the lengthy process. This necessity to completely reset my iPad (and it is very shakily alive now, I fear) was a direct result of uploading the new OS. I am furious. What is going on with Apple? I see this has happened to people for quite a while now. Good Lord.

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,

While downloading an ITunes upgrade, my IPad froze. All I see is the ITunes logo and pic of a USB cable on my screen. Tried to hold down the wake button while connecting the USB cable to override it but no results. Still frozen with ITunes logo. Any thoughts or suggestions?
Force your iPad into Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.
