TS1538 hours needed to restore iphone 4, ios 7.1

Dear Sir. My Iphone 4, ios 7.1 was excellent until I got a message from my Itune 11.1.5 telling me that there were some items missing. Would I like to restore my Iphone? of course the reply was, yes. And I started the process but it took lot of time that made me believe that my Itune was not working so I unplugged the device, it was terrible! Now where I am talking to you the device has been plugged for 5 hours but no signal for the end. That is why I asked you dear fellows, how long should it take me to restore my system? Bearing in mind that I have many apps therein, if I lose them that will be disasterous and I love Apple I do not want to leave it. Thank you.

  • Need to restore iphone 5 but itunes doesn't recognise it

    Hi
    I tried to update my iphone 5 to the latest iOS7 using iTunes but I got error message 4005. My phone is stuck on the connect to iTunes screen and I understand that I need to restore it to factory settings and can do this using iTunes. But when I plug my iphone into my pc (HP notebook, windows 7) iTunes doesn't recognise it. Apparently it should recognise that my phone is in recovery mode and ask if I want to restore it. This does not happen. I have tried the suggestions of many people with a similar problem in the support community but none of the solutions has worked for me and I have followed the resolution steps on the Apple support pages but have had no luck there either. I can see my iphone is in recovery mode in device manager on the pc, iTunes is up to date, I have uninstalled and re-installed iTunes according to Apple instructions, I have re-started the apple mobile device service, I am using USB 2.0 port not USB 3.0 and directly to the computer not via a hub.
    If anyone can provide any help and useful suggestions on this I would really appreciate it! Thanks!

    Hey bron_cross,
    Wow, Superb troubleshooting so far! Usually for the symptoms you have described, I recommend the sub-step titled “If the device is not recognized while in Recovery Mode” located in Step 5 of this article:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    However, it seems like you have exhausted all of the suggestions in that step. Did you happen to move on to Step 6: Check for third-party software conflicts? If not, here is the excerpt:
    Certain phone and cellular device connectivity software from vendors such as Samsung, Nokia, Bora, Novatel, Sony, Android, LG, Sierra, Huawei, Pantech, or Motorola may cause your device not to be recognized. If you have such software on your computer:
    1. Uninstall the phone or cellular connectivity software temporarily, and test.  Contact the manufacturer of this software for assistance in doing this. If you use the third-party phone or cellular device for your Internet connection, try connecting to an alternate network using Wi-Fi or Ethernet.
    2. Remove iTunes and all related Apple software by following this article (for Windows XP), or this article (for Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8).
    3. After reinstalling iTunes, test the device.
    4. If you still need your third-party phone or cellular connectivity software that was removed, reinstall this software and test your device to ensure it still functions with iTunes. Contact the vendor of your phone connectivity software if the issue returns.
    Also, third-party security software may conflict with iOS devices connecting to iTunes. Follow this article to troubleshoot issues that may be caused by your security software. After resolving any issues you may have with your security software, you may need to try the steps in this article again.
    Thanks,

  • Itunes 11.1.4.62 unable to read content and need to restore iphone. Please help !

    Yesterday I had update itunes to 11.1.4.62, I try to sync my iphone 5(ios 7), it unable to  read the content from my device and ask me to restore. I don't want to restore while I not yet back up everything. Any helps ? Thanks.

    Try a more recent version of my advice. The "for older video cards version" may work when the default version doesn't.
    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

  • I need to restore iPhone but it won't let me until I turn off "Find my iPhone".  I can't turn that off because of the restrictions passcode.   Please help

    I have a restrictions passcode on my son's phone.   I had recently changed the code and now what I thought was the new code, isn't working.
    I need to restore the phone, but it won't let me until I turn off "Find my iPhone."   I can't turn that off without a passcode.
    Please help!

    Forgot passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support
    You'll need to use the instructions in the link above to put it in recovery mode.

    iTunes has to be able to contact Apple during the downloading and installing process.

  • Restore iphone 5 IOS

    I am new to the iPhone.  I have had a problem with the Square App.  I start the App and get the Push Notification Screen. I click OK.  It will not go away. I have deleted the App. I have reinstalled the App, I have force quit the app, I have rebooted the device to no avail.  Talking to a tech at Apple and a tech at an Authorized Apple retailer they have both suggested I restore the iphone. 
    I am assuming they are talking about connecting the device to iTunes and clicking the restore iPhone button. I am also assuming this basically reformats the device and reinstalls IOS 6.
    I also have the phone backed up to iTunes. I also am assuming when I restore all the apps will be reinstalled as well.

    It's the case, never jailbroken. Also, for info I had since the first day problem to communicate when using apple earphone and tryied with the blackberry one and a brand new Sennheiser earphone (made for iphone) without success (but working just to listen to music). I was on the point to request help for that issue..but now it's finished.
    Please as last advice, what's the trick to claim for replacement (without headache), I'm extremely disappointed!
    For info, I bought the iphone from Dubai-UAE and I'm in Tunisia.
    Thanks for reply.

  • I need help with IPHOne 4s IOS 7.0.4 battery life not improving

    Alright, I Ned help with my iPhone 4S battler life, it is horrible, it will drain in about 12 hours. All I do is check my email, text a few people, and check a few apps. When I may school, it is a hundred percent, then I check it during school etc, when I go to bed it is about 20-30% battery life. Need help. Any suggestions? I tried a hard resets and restoring to a new iPhone etc, nothing worked.

    I"m not at all sure what is the problem when you are describing your battery as holding its charge for 12 hours???
    How long do you want your device to hold its battery charge???
    Please see this article for tips on conserving battery charge. But PLEASE if you are looking for a device to hold its charge for LONGER than 12 hours I would suggest an android.

  • Restoring iPhone with ios 7, with broken screen

    I broke my screen on my iPhone 5 and have just upgraded to iOS7. I also had a passcode on. With one of the new features of iOS 7, you must input the passcode to enable being able to restore the phone or even back up the phone. The screen was shattered about a month ago, worked just fine for about a month and then yesterday the screen just shows a gibberish mix of colors and pixels. It still "displays" notifications in that the screen will turn on with nothing but the jumble of pixels, and sounds, although Siri doesnt come on when holding the home button. Now, I just need to backup my phone for when I get a new one tomorrow without being able to input my passcode.

    Hello, Brunon_Wayward. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    Sometimes when an iOS update is released there is a compatibility lag with certain features that requires an update to the vehicle.  I would first check with your vehicle manufacture for any firmware updates.  However, here is an article that has some helpful troubleshooting steps regarding car stereo connections and an iOS device.

  • Cannot restore iPhone 5, iOS 6.1.4, error 2001 and 2006

    My iPhone 5 (AT&T, purchased on March 2013) suddenly went blank - without being dropped down, or *drowned* in water/ liquid - then a blinking (Apple) logo ...
    Following Internet forums, I kept the "Home" button pressed a while, the sign of an USB cable attemting to connect to iTunes appeared.
    iTunes asked me to restore, I agreed, it downloaded the "iPhone5,1_6.1.4_10B350_Restore.ipsw", then extracted, then verifying with Apple for a while, then appeared the message that this iPhone cannot be restored, error 2001.
    I retried, same result, sometime the error is 2006.
    I retried with another MacBook Pro, then iMac, same error 2006 or 2001 !
    Strange thing : when trying in iTunes in Windows 8 (via BootCamp on those same iMacs, MacBook Pro), the error changed to error 21 !!!
    I'd tried in several other ways :
    01. DFU (pressing both "Home" and "Power" buttons ... ...),
    02. turn off Intego/ Sophos/ ClamXav,
    03. delete that .ipsw file to download a new one,
    04. remove the iPhoneUpdater.log files, pretending to cheat the system
    05. confirm via System Information that I am plugging the iPhone only to one of the USB Hi-Speed Buses (thinking error 2001 & 2006 relates to USB ports)
    ... the *iFool* beauty keeps sleeping like ... a brick !
    Any help would be highly appreciated. Many thanks in advance.
    BAKZOO.

    Hey guys, i have the same issue.
    Yesterday my iphone lost network, i turned it off, and wanted to turn on, but iphone didn't react.
    Once i plugged charging cable in, apple logo appeared, then screen went black, then apple logo appeared once again. So it seems like iphone goes into reboot after apple logo appears.
    I connected iphone to macbook pro while holding home button, itunes showed me iphone 5 in recovery mode, then iOS was downloaded, but recovery didn't even started. Every time it shows me 2001 error. Sometimes recovery fails with 2006 error. I tried to change USB port, tried another original USB cable, tried another macbook pro, both are updated to OS X 10.8.4, iTunes 11.0.4(4), but the same 2001 error comes up over and over again.
    I did everything that official support advises on this page http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694?viewlocale=ru_RU&locale=ru_RU#error2001, but nothing really helps
    Any ideas on what might help? There's no Apple stores here in Uktraine so i can not return my iphone and get a new one

  • Please Help, Restored iPhone 4S, iOS 5.1.1, Lost Photos, Messages and Whatsapp Chats

    Hi There,
    I hope someone can help me with this, the stuff I've lost is so important to me it's actually scary. I can't beleive this has happened.
    I last synced my iPhone 4s on the 29th August, there's been nothing majorly important put on since then so I can cope with losing the stuff that was saved in the interim.
    Anyway, over the last few days when I connected the phone to iTunes i got an error message saying iTunes can't recognise the iPhone. Restore the iPhone in order to rectify this. So i downloaded iOS 5.1.1.
    Then Last night i did restore the phone and install the new iOS... The restore went ok, but when it came to sync the phone from my last sync on the 29/08/2012 it said the sync could not be saved to the phone??? The phone had the correct contacts, music etc...but no photos... The Camera Roll has disappeared, all my previous SMS/iMessages and my conversations in Whatapp, my call history, my reminders in my Calendar, my Stocks, the cities I've listed in my Weather App.... you get the idea!
    So at this point I restored the phone again and the same thing happened, however when I got the error message saying that the sync couldn't be saved to the phone then I tried again, and it synced successfully, but I think it's to this new "version/state" of the phone... So now my most recent sync for the phone was on the 12th August and all the photos, messages etc were missing when it went through...
    How can I get my original stuff back? There were hundreds of photos on there that are of huge importance and I'm gutted at the thought of losing them.
    Any Help would be hugely appreciated guys. I'm at a dead end here...
    Cheers,
    Seány

    Also, my email accounts no longer show up in my Mail App.
