This *****, i tried updating my iphone 4 software to IOS 6 and my fricken phone crashed and everything is gone on it
im mad
Did you backup your phone before you upgraded? If not, you should only be mad at yourself. You can't avoid Apples warning to backup your phone before you install the update and then be mad at them for losing your data.
If you did back up your phone, then you have nothing to worry about.

I tried to update my iphone 4 to the ios 7 and now its on recovery mode. How can i take it off of recovery mode?
Hi _em24,
It sounds like you are having an issue with the upgrade to your iPhone’s version of iOS, a frustrating situation to be sure. Let’s see if we can get you back up and running.
For basic troubleshooting of upgrades, and assuming you are using iTunes to do it, I would suggest using the steps in this article -

If not using iTunes or the above do not produce the desired result, use the steps in this article -

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

Can anyone help? I updated my iPhone 4 with latest iOS 7 and now wi fi is greyed out, Bluetooth won't work and tbh am so angry! Phone now out of warranty so apple won't help without it costing me. Don't want to pay as its an apple problem not phone problem. It worked ok before. Tried everything, even clearing it down. Can't even back it up now unless I connect to a pc!
I have not had wifi since November when I upgraded to the newest IOS version. I called the Apple help line and they told me some things to do and I tried them all and they worked for a few hours and then wifi shut off again. I kept doing what they told me and it worked for a couple more days and then I could never turn it on again. My blue tooth doesn't work either. I had to actually increase my data usage with AT&T becuase of this. When I did that in December I went to the Apple store and was told that it is a hardware issue and since my phone is out of warranty I would have to pay for a new phone because they could not fix the issue. My upgrade isn't up until June 2014 so not only do I have to wait for the upgrade and I am not paying for a new phone but I have to pay $10 plus extra a month on my cell phone bill because I was going over on my Data!!! I have been beyond upset about this and Apple is not doing anything about this nor did they offer up some way to resolve the issue because obviously it is not just some rare incident if several people are having this issue. Who knows how many people out there have had this issue and have not said anything about it. Now there is a newer update that I can't do because it requires wifi in order to download.
June can not get here fast enough and I may not go back to Iphone after dealing with this for so long with no help from Apple. -

I tried to update my iPhone 4s to the ios 6 and it wouldn't download and my phone will not work now.
I tried to update my iPhone 4s to the ios 6 and it wouldn't download and my phone will not work. I started the download and it said that it had 6 hours remaining, so i just left it overnight. The next morning it was working fine, but the ios 6 didn't download. I looked at it later and it had the turning on screen with the loading bar under it. It stayed like that for a while and the bar didn't move. I needed to use my phone so I tried to make it go to the home screen, but nothing happened. I held down the lock and home button for a few seconds and everything went black. I tried to turn it back on and all it has done all day is stayed on the turning on screen. I tried plugging it into the wall, and nothing happened. I tried connecting it to iTunes, and nothing happened. I don't know what I need to do to get it to work.
OMG is working OMG OMG OMG Thanks alot dude!

Is updating my iPhone 4S software to ios 6.0.1 version dangerous to keeping my photos and apps available or it might delete them?
Why do you think it would...
Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and “ Check for Updates “...

i tried updating my iphone 4s to the ios 7 but it said error with the firmware now my phone is stuck in recovery mode and i have no idea how to fix it any suggestions??
Try Restoring it 3 times in a row and see if that works.
If not that error can indicate one of two things: Your iPhone was at one time jailbroken, had the iOS version rolled back, or ran an unauthorized beta and if none of those things are true it is a hardware error. -
I recently updated my IPhone 4 software to IOS 6.1 When I turned the phone back on my contacts were lost? only a few that were in favorites were still there. I was getting messages that I have to delete some backup storage (which I did) and the contacts still do not appear.ellen2140
Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

i have just updated my software to ios 7 and all of my apps that i downloaded have completely gone!! can anyone help me to as where they could be??
it's possible that the installation inserted a blank app page into your phone. be sure to swipe from right to left until you have no more pages to look for apps you may be missing. also, there are multiple app pages in folders in ios7, so your apps could be hidden on a different page in the folder. to search for your apps in your device, you will want to swipe down in the middle of any of the main pages that hold your apps to reveal a search bar, then search for the app in question to see if it is still installed on your device.

HT4623 I updated my iPhone to the new iOs 7 and I cannot log into the cloud????
I updated my iPhone 5 to the new iOS7 and the phone keeps asking me to log into my iCloud account. but when I do, a pop up window asks to Review Terms and I select View Tems vs. the Not Now button and nothing happens. I have turned the phone off and back on and the same thing happens. It asks me to go to Settings and when I do, the iCloud icon is grayed out. I cannot seem to log into the cloud. HELP???
I don't recall where, but if you hunt, you will be able to find an "accept" button. I think you also need to check a box that says something like "I have read and agree ..."
Yes, it requires a careful search. -
