Hi, MaddyV38.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I would recommend attempting to update via iTunes 11.1 on your computer.
iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

If your device screen shows a connect to iTunes graphic and is not recognized by iTunes, try the steps in the article below.

trying to unlock by sliding my finger to the right and will not unlock
Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...
If no joy... Try a Restore...
1: Connect the device to Your computer and open iTunes.
2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.

When I connect my iPhone to my computer, it says that I need the latest download for my iTunes to be able to sync. I already have the iOS7 and the 11.1.3 update. Whats the deal?
I have the same thing with my ipad "Bill's Ipad cannot be used because it requires itunes version 11.1 or later"
Thanks for help. -

Hello Lazyboy7,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like you are getting an error message from iTunes when trying to manually backup with your USB cord.
I found this article to help troubleshoot what might be going on here:

I am trying to backup my iPhone but the email used for my Apple ID has been deactivated so I can no longer log into my account or back up my iPhone. How do I back it up otherwise? Or how do I change my email?
You can update your AppleID info here: Manage your Apple ID

Thanks. I have followed all the instructions as recommended and nothing has worked so it looks like the restore/update may have been interrupted - would loss of internet connection do this?
Yes it would, possibly even brick it.
Have successfully connected my ipod nano with iTunes so looks like the device driver is working.
Can I use my ipod nano USB connector to check?
It is not much help to you, since the device that you need still not recognized.
Anyway looks like I may have to swallow the loss of data. Have set-up a call for tomorrow with Apple support so will wait until after this before doing the factory restore!
Good luck, but if you expect miracle from that call good luck again. -
I updated my phone to the iOS7 and now when i try to use the keyboard, i can't see myself typing and it goes very slowly. I am confused to why this happened. It worked perfectly fine with iOS6. Any suggestions?
Hi imobl,

i tried to download the ios7 and when my phone rebooted it now says could not activate phone because the activation server cannot be reached, so now I can't get into anything on my phone
The activation servers are probably overloaded with everyone trying to update to iOS 7 today. You might need to wait and try again later.

Hi I am trying to restore my iphone from the itunes back and it is asking me for a password, I don't ever remember putting a password in. how do i get the password reset?

You can't get it reset; if you could there would be no point in having it. If you have an encrypted backup there are two ways this could have happened:
You checked "Encrypt Backup" in iTunes at some time in the past, either intentionally or by accident
You have a corporate MS Exchange account and your Exchange administrator installed a security profile on your phone that requires the phone'a contents to be encrypted. This, in turn, requires the backup to be encrypted for obvious reasons.
In either case you were prompted for a password the first time you backed up after whichever of these happened. So think about what you might have entered for a password at that time. Fortunately you get an unlimited number of tries. Other threads on this subject have shown that it is always a password known to the user, so it wasn't something made up by iTunes. Also, everyone who has figured it out has found it to be a different password type, so try your Apple ID password, your computer's login password, your WiFi password, your corporate domain password, etc. And try passwords that may have been changed since your first backup. As a last resort there is a professional password cracker available, but it isn't cheap - it's targeted at the law enforcement market - from Elcomsoft. There are also some scam password crackers available that don't actually work and possibly steal your information. It's likely that a developer of one or more of these will post a response with a link (possibly hidden) to their "product". So before clicking any links you might want to install the Web of Trust plugin that keeps track of scam sites and warns you. http://www.mywot.com. -
I upgraded my iphone 4 to ios7 and syncd it, however after i restored my backup I couldnt sync because itunes claims my pc is no longer authorised for purchased items on my phone. I have repeatedly authorised the pc, and still receive the same error
Hello m2205
Check out the article below to troubleshoot your authorization issue within iTunes, you may need to remove the SC Info folder.

My iTunes won't update, it starts to install then just says it can't. I decided to try uninstall it but it won't even uninstall anymore, there is some type of ERROR going on. I tried to just install iTunes from the website and that won't even work. I'm using a Windows Vista.

I bought my iphone 4 in the UK and I am trying to use a sim in the UAE and it doesn't work. It says that the sim is not valid, how can I get this unlocked?
You are saying the phone is locked, but then you are saying there is no provider. The two situations cannot peacefully coexist. Contact Apple and they can tell you if the phone is locked and if locked to which provider the phone is locked. People on this board are not Apple employees and cannot get you that information.

i trying to restore my iphone at the end of the process during restoring the device shows me the 1015 code error what i have to do now?
Error -1 generally indicates a hardware failure.Your phone's broken. Buy a new phone, replace the phone through Apple or an authorised service provider, or find a 3rd party repair shop to attempt to fix it.
