  • IPhone 3GS keeps turning off/shutting down.Have done system restore but no improvement. Suggestions welcome.

    iPhone 3GS keeps turning off/shutting down. After numerous attempts I've managed to get it on again. Any ideas - could it be battery? Suggestions welcome.

    Try forcing the phone into recovery mode and restore as a new device.
    Follow these steps:
    iOS: How to back up your device and setup as a new device
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
    Doing this will help eliminate any possible software issue that could be causing this. Setting up a new device will bypass a backup with possible data corruption.
    If the issue continues after this, you should contact Apple for service for the phone as it will very likely be a hardware issue.

  • Why does my iphone 3gs keep turning off when i sync it with itunes like it tells me to when updating to IOS6?

    please help

    Hi Luke.Wilkins6,
    It sounds like you are pressing the top Sleep/Wake button and the phone seems to shutdown rather than go to sleep, and occasionally youll see a purple screen rather than the Apple logo when you start it. I would start by resetting the phone, with these steps:
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
    If the issue persists I would use the following article to backup your device to iTunes and restore it from your backup. If the issue persists, then restore it one more time as new using the same article to isolate to the backup file itself.
    How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • My iPhone is in recovery mode, But once it's done with the process a tab comes up saying there was something wrong restoring it (1015) error. Any suggestions of how I could fix this?

    My iPhone is in recovery mode, But once it's done with the process a tab comes up saying there was something wrong restoring it (1015) error. Any suggestions of how I could fix this?

    Error 1015: This error is typically caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Downgrading to a previous version is not supported. To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple. This error can also occur when an unauthorized modification of the iOS has occurred and you are now trying to restore to an authorized, default state.
    In other words:
    The backup to which you're trying to restore was created with a lower or previos version of iOS than the one installed on your iPhone during the recovery.  If this is the case then you'll be unable to restore your phone with that backup and you'll have to set your iPhone up as new.  Or,
    Your iPhone was/is jailbroken.  If this is the case, there is nothing anyone here or at Apple can do for you.

  • Why does my iPhone 3GS keep powering off into a black screen with what looks like a barcode displayed?

    My iPhone 3GS keeps powering off at any point when between 5 and 50% battery remains.
    I could be in the middle of texting, receiving a call or using an app when all of a sudden the screen goes black and very faint randomly distributed lines are visible from the top of the screen to the bottom. The display looks a little like a barcode. I am then unable to restart the phone without plugging it into a power supply. I've looked on the Internet and cannot find a similair case.
    It is so frustrating and I am continually thinking it will crash at any point.
    Any help or suggestions would be very much appreciated.
    Thanks

    When the "white symbol" is the white Apple logo, it is starting up....
    Can take some time.

I request the officials to act fast and come up with a recovery solution because the phone is unable to get restored on itunes due to "error 3" when ever i am trying to restore and neither of the istores have the solution for the same.

  • My iPhone 3GS keeps turning itself off all the time for no reason every time I put it on silent or just get a Facebook message I have a broken sleep/power button anyone know how to fix this problem?

    My iPhone 3GS keeps turning itself off all the time the power/sleep button dosent work so it's quiet annoying having to plug it in all the time dose anyone have a fix for this?

    The "fix" is to get the phone repaired.  There's no magic solution for a broken phone.
    Bring your phone ant $149 to Apple for an out of warranty replacement, or find a 3rd party repair shop near you. 

  • HT201263 My iPhone 4 started to update but got stuck in recovery mode. I've tried everything anyone on the website has told me to do, but nothing has worked. Is there anything I can do? I need my phone

    My iPhone 4 started to update but got stuck in recovery mode. I've tried everything anyone on the website has told me to do, but nothing has worked. When you go to turn it on, it shows the Apple symbol,  then it goes to the connect to iTunes screen. When I do that, it just says error with the code 9006. I've followed what the Apple site has said to do for it, but the phone is still is the same  state. Is there anything I can do? I need my phone back as soon as possible.

    Hello Hester Emily,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    I'm sorry to hear about the difficulties you're experiencing after this update process.  I found the following article that has more information on the iTunes error code 9006:
    Resolve specific iTunes update and restore errors
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
    Configure your security software
    Related errors: 2, 4, 6, 9, 1000, 1611, 9006, 9807, or 9844. Sometimes as a result of this issue, a device might stop responding during the restore process.
    Check your security software and settings, which can block ports and prevent connection to Apple servers during update and restore.
    Take care,
    Alex H.

    This may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow Troubleshooting security software issues, and restore your device on a different known-good computer. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.

  • My apple iPhone 4s keeps turning off

    My iPhone 4S keeps turning off when its not in use. Every time it turns off, it has full battery power and it does not turn on by simply pressing the power button, I always have to press both the power button and the home button for like 4 seconds so that it turns on again. Can somebody help me figure out what the problem might be?

    Did you try to restore it? If not, then do it first. If it doesn't work, then I guess it may be a problem with an iPhone itself. Anyway, your problem is strange, I have to say... Especially if it comes to the way you turn an iPhone on again. I still believe it should be a problem with a system, because that's what an iPhone needs to know how to turn on. If it turns on only in that untypical way, then I honestly guess that something is wrong with an iOS you have on your iPhone. Maybe try to reinstal it.
