Updating iPhone 5 Troubles
I was updating my iPhone 5 and when I plugged it into iTunes it said that it detected an iPhone in recovery mode and that it needed to be restored to be used by iTunes. What do I do?

updated iphone 5 to iOS 6.1.3, now I am having trouble with keyboard not responding correctly and screen zooming in by itself...
Buttons pressing themself...
Also, my main screen is permanently zoomed in...
suggestions?Double tap the screen with THREE fingers, that should get it back to normal again.
Then go into Settings > General > Accessibility > Zoom > OFF.
Not too sure about the keyboard and random button presses though. Back it up and restore from iTunes, see if that fixes it. -

I open itunes and am prompted to update iphone. the download and update will start but then about 6-8 minutes into the process a window opens with an error message that update is not able to be completed and to check my network connections. I called apple, they advised me to disable my antivirus program, which i did, and run the update again. Again, the same error message. Any ideas?

unable to update iphone 4 due to firmaware incompatibility. any recommendation?
thanksWas an error code included in the message? If so, please include it.
Do you have the correct iOS 5 file downloaded? Go here: http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=750 and make sure you download the correct .ipsw for your iPhone. If your iPhone 4 is on AT&T (or uses a SIM), it is GSM. If it is on Verizon, it is CDMA. You must download 5.1.1. at this time.
Once that is downloaded, save it to your desktop. Open iTunes with your device connected. Go to the device menu and find Restore. Hold down ALT while clicking Restore, and choose the correct file (the one you just downloaded). Back up your phone first if you don't want to lose data.
If you have any more trouble, report back here with an error code (if possible), or simply a screenshot of the error message. -
"Verifying updated iPhone software" message for 4 hours now, please help!
I'm trying to update to 1.1.1 for 4 hours now, and after downloading and extracting the "Verifying updated iPhone software . . ." message doesn't disappear, nor does it advance or anything.
my phone has never been hacked in any way nor have there been any 3rd party things installed. I signed up as a new at&t customer on day 2 of the iPhone release and never had any trouble till now.
I'm currently overseas and won't be back for the next month. so I've been using me iPhone as an iPod and mail device (wherever I have wireless access) since at&t isn't working here.
could that be why it is not verifying the software and "stuck" in this mode for more than 4 hours now?
I haven't gotten any of the error messages that are mentioned in the other threads, but I'm afraid to disconnect it, as I'm not sure what's going to happen.
Please help!never mind. I disconnected it, had to restore it to factory settings, but it all came back and now it's working with the new udpate!

I now have a useless $700 phone. Updated iTunes to latest version (and can't get it to revert back to an earlier version), updated iPhone (iPhone5) to iOS 7 and now it won't talk to iTunes, nor will it connect to my WiFi. What should I try now?
If it won't talk at all to iTunes, you can hold down the power and home button for 10 seconds, it will power off, this is ok, then let go of the power button while holding the home button until iTunes sees it as a device in recovery mode. You can try to reinstall iOS7 and then restore.

While updating iphone software to 5.0.1, I am getting error that Iphone could not be updated because the firmware file not compatible.
Can anyone help me to resolve this issue.Using iTunes 10.5.2.11 on a PC running 64 bit Windows 7
First did a full back up of iphone using iTunes
Put iphone into Recovery Mode ( http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 ). Erases all user data and settings!
Disconnected USB cable from iphone
Powered off iphone by holding down Sleep/Off button until slider appeared, slid to off, waited until screen dark
Pressed and kept holding Home button while plugging cable back into phone
I still saw the graphic on the iphone that said to plug into iTunes, so I unplugged and re-plugged cable. (I may have released the Home button too soon)
Recovery Mode alert came up in iTunes.
Followed all iTunes prompts to restore phone - it downloaded and sucessfully installed iOS 5.0.1
iphone did not appear in iTunes due to missing pairing file (that made me nervous)
iphone was now at factory settings. I followed prompts on iphone screen to start reactivation process
Eventually the iphone asked if I wanted to restore from a back-up (whew!)
A window opened in iTunes and I was able to select my previous back-up file for the restore
A full restore from back-up then occured
I also allowed a carrier settings update to occur when prompted (not sure that happens in all cases)
When the restore was done I had to re-enter some passwords, but everything was there
iOS is now 5.0.1 (9A406). The whole process took about an hour. -

Decided to update iphone 4 to ios 5.1 and mid update it froze and the screen is black. Phone does not respond to any combinations of home and power buttons, when plugged into computer it does not see it is plugged in so I cannot restore or anything. Looks like the screen is on it's just unresponsive and black obviously. Has anyone had this problem? I was updating via wifi right in front of my router and my computer.
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! -

Just updated iPhone 5 to iOS 7.1.2, now it won't sync with iphoto 9.4.3
Just updated iPhone 5 to iOS 7.1.2 (from some version of iOS 6), now it won't sync with iPhoto 9.4.3 on my MacBook pro (running OS 10.8.5). I plug it in and iPhoto recognizes the iPhone but only displays a 'Loading..." message next to the 'New Photos' page.
Tried it also on my older Mac Pro running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and iPhoto 9.2.3 and same problem.
Any ideas? Already tried rebooting both devices.I have same problem but with iPhoto 9.5.1
Photos don't get to the iPhone.
