Update to iOS 7.03; Hung up on backing up

I have been trying to update to 7.03, but it seems hung up on backing up. Going on for 1hr, where in the past it took 15min.
I have an iphone 4, that has IOS 7.02.
Anyone else have this issue? Could i pull the plug on the update? Will my iphone be ok? Will full summary return?

I am using my computer, not wifi. I had it connected via usb.
I forced close itunes, clicked update again and it backed it up in 3 min.
Seems like it is working now.
Thanks for the info.

Iphone Backup Switch 1.1: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/ipbswitch.html you know there is a thing called Google Search !!
JTS1987 Did it work ?

I updated to ios 6 right now can go back ios 5.1.1? please answer me as soon as possible

there are so many bad stuff like crashing and the maps and some other things.

Nope. Apple does not support going back to a previous version of iOS.
What you might try is restoring to factory settings but DO NOT SYNCH any files. Leave the device with just the factory stuff and then test it. If the device still acts up, then you most likely have a hardware problem.
If the device works fine with just the factory apps, then synch your apps ONE AT A TIME and test the device each time you add an app. If the device starts acting up, remove the last app you installed and test again. If the device runs fine, skip the "bad app," and move on to the next app... Rinse, repeat.
The idea is you may have something installed that doesn't like iOS 6, and this process will help you find it.

IPhone backup hung for 4 hours on update to iOS 5

My configuration:
iTunes 10.5.2.11 (just updated to), iPhone 3GS, iOS 4.3.3. Windows XP Home Edition Version 5.1 SP 3. Last update and sync was 5 months ago.
Updating iTunes required a PC reboot, which I did. When I updated iTunes 10.5.2.11 (or maybe after I synced my iPhone soon thereafter), it asked if I wanted to automatically install updates (I think) on the iPhone. Hadn't seen this before, so I clicked 'Yes'. I also manually transfered all purchases from iPhone to iTunes before updating to iOS 5 (standard procedure).
The "hang":
The update seemed hang after it started the "backup" process. The "moving green lights" on the backup dialog window rarely changed, and the screen on the iPhone shows a rarely updating "time wheel/gear" icon. Also, every 2+ minutes or so, I can hear the iPhone vibrating, which I was guess means something is going on. Windows Task Manager shows the APSDaemon.exe at 98-99% CPU as well as CPU Usage at 100%. Something seems hung in my mind.
I got nervous (and impatient), so I clicked "Stop" the backup. After a short "Sync" message on the iPhone, everything seems in order and back to as it was before the attempted update. My iPhone settings confirm it's still at iOS 4.3.3.
My Apple technical support expired 4 months ago, so that's why I'm trying the Apple Support Community. I searched to Community logs but wasn't sure that my situation was similar to others.
Thank you for any help you can offer.

Something on your computer is blocking the backup. For one thing, you should back up frequently. Daily is a good idea. The backup is incremental, so when there is a long gap between backups the process of determining what has changed can take quite a while. But 4 hours is much to long.
First, try fixing Windows socket layer manager; this has been a consistent problem since a Microsoft update back in October. Open a Command window, and type:
netsh winsock reset
Then reboot and try again by JUST doing a backup - with the phone connected, right click on the name of the phone in iTunes and choose "Backup" from the floating menu,
If the backup still hangs the old backup is probably corrupt. Delete it by going to iTunes Preferences, Devices tab. After that make sure the delete worked. Use Windows Explorer to verify the Backup folder is empty. It is located at:
C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
where user is your Windows login name. If the folder is not empty delete everything in it.

Placing your device into recovery (DFU-Device Firmware Upgrade) mode:
Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
   1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, 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.
              * If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
                Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
                release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
       device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
       let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
       charge, and then start with step 2 again.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
       When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

How do I update the iOS software on iTunes for Windows

Hi all.
The battery life in my phone was decreasing very quickly to the point where I have turned it off with 100% at night, and wake up in the morning to have it at 0%. So yesterday, after making a few calls I got to this nice man who explained to me that it was not a problem with the battery, but I needed to update to the latest version of iOS (generally fixes the problem). I don't have enough space (and cannot clear it), so he suggested another option. I would have to use iTunes. First he told me to upload my data to iCloud. As I have not done it before, it took a while, and it did not work for a while. He sent me the link of what to do via email (Update the iOS software on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support) and hung up, after me thanking him. My cloud finally updated a little before 10PM GMT and I went to sleep. In the morning my battery was not dead, albeit it had only gone done by a few %. However, I still want to update to the newest software.
I have the latest version of iTunes on my laptop and so this morning I plugged in my phone to my laptop (using the computer - phone plug). However I cannot see where to select my device. My phone is not coming up in any corner, and it is not charging when it is plugged into my laptop either (I read somewhere that it should). So my question is, how do I select my device. It is plugged in but it not coming up for me. Please be as explicit as possible.
If it helps I have an iPhone 4s bought in December 2013.
Thank you!

I'm not sure if it should be here or in the iPhone usage forum.

IPhone 4 locks up while updating to iOS 4.3.2

My iPhone 4 (GSM; AT&T) just had the first major problem that I have ever encountered with my iPhone. While updating my phone to iOS 4.3.2 from an iMac (early 2006; Snow Leopard 10.6.7/iTunes 10.2.1), it hung on the update screen for 30 minutes, locked up, and could not reset or shut down. When I tried to plug the frozen iPhone back into my Mac, it wouldn't connect to iTunes at all - the iPhone was completely frozen.
I also own an iPad, and it updated to iOS 4.3.2 without any issues whatsoever.
Has anyone else experienced this problem when updating their iPhones to iOS 4.3.2?

Yes this happened to me as well.
I went to download the new software today and my iphone4 froze.
I have the white apple on my screen ( when you turn on your phone) it has not gone away. its been almost an hour now.
I pressed the top button and the home button at the same time like apple support said to do. the white apple disappeared and reappeared a few seconds later.
i dont know what to do !!

IPod 4,1 will not update to iOS 7. I updated my iMac to 10.9.1 (maverick). Latest Numbers version on iMac is not compatible with Numbers on iPod. Ideas? Can I go back a version with Numbers?

iPod 4,1 will not update to iOS 7. I updated my iMac to 10.9.1 (maverick). Latest Numbers version on iMac is not compatible with Numbers on iPod. Ideas? Can I go back a version with Numbers? I downloaded old version of Numbers 2.0.1 from DVD but with both versions the 2.0.1 will not open. So both versions are present but only the new version functions. I tried to drag the new version to the trash but the old version still runs error message and will not open. I did not try to restart with the new version in the trash.

Maybe. See:

Home Sharing is not working following update to iOS 5.1 and iTunes 10.6

First, the problem:
I am not able to see any shared libraries when using the Music and Video apps on my iPhone 4.
Next, the specs:
iTunes 10.6 on MBP running Mac OS X 10.7.3
iPhone 4 runinng iOS 5.1
Wi-Fi connections for both MBP and iPhone 4
Both connect to same network using same SSID with static IP addressing and UPnP enabled.
MBP connects using 5 GHz N-Only anntena.
iPhone 4 connects using 2.4 GHz NG-Mixed antenna. (Hopefully next iteration of iPhone supports 5 GHz.)
Third, what I have tried:
Everything in "Troubleshooting Home Sharing" (KB Article TS2972 - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2972).
Re-entering my Apple ID credentials for both Music and Movies in iOS Settings.
Re-entering my Apple ID credentials for Home Sharing in iTunes.
Setting up Port Forwarding for both the iPhone 4 and MBP in my router for the relevant TCP and UDP ports (just in case). However, this did not help.
Finally, what I have noticed:
My Remote app on the iPhone 4 works without issue and can control iTunes running on my MBP.
My Air Mouse app on the iPhone 4 works without issue and can control my MBP.
My wireless printer connected to the network via the 2.4 GHz antenna (it only supports 802.11g) is usable - I can print to it and access its embedded web server management tool.
So, in the end, Home Sharing no longer works on my iPhone 4 after updating both IOS and iTunes (all other apps and software updates are current for both the phone and the MBP). I believe I have ruled out any issues with which antenna is being used for which device. I am out of ideas on how to get Home Sharing to work again.
Any suggestions or possible solutions would be greatly appreciated! Thank you gurus in advance!

Spoke to a "senior advisor" in the Apple TV department. Her suggestions: change channel in router to minimize/eliminate wifi interference from other users; move router away from any metal - i.e., DVD player, phone modem, etc.; keep router away from wireless 2.4 gH phones, which are "notorious" for crashing wifi routers. So she confirms that the problem is one of connection to router suddenly dropping out.
My own feeling is that none of these fixes will do the trick, because it seems pretty clear that there is a hardware component here - the timing of the drops seems like an overheating issue. It takes 35-40 minutes for the box to warm up enough for the first drop; then each consecutive drop happens quicker than the one before, as it heats up more. Each time it drops, its tiny brain gets a little more scrambled; last night it finally wouldn't start up again at all.
My suggestion is that everyone who is experiencing this problem, please call Apple tech support and ask to speak to a senior advisor in the Apple TV department. Make them aware of this problem!

"No sim installed" error after updating to iOS 5.1

A notification popped up this morning asking me to update to iOS 5.1 so I updated it. Once I downloaded and installed it, it said "no sim installed". I have rebooted my phone, taken out and put back in the sim but the error message remains. I can't make calls or message, but my internet works. Anything else I can try?

i have the same problem with the 4s. I have a (cutdown) sim from virgin (in the UK), who do not offer the iphone, but it worked perfectly until this upgrade (to ios 5.1). The phone was bought unlocked from apple. now i have the no sim error. I am trying a restore and have booked a genius bar appt for later today. I have a very expensive touch at present. The sim is working fine in my old nokia, so it is not the sim that is faulty. What is going on here, why would i want to upgrade if this just creates problems. I have been up since 5am now trying to sort this so i have a phone again.
