    Sounds like a dead battery.  Try plugging it into a charger.

  • HT4623 My iPhone is hung-up during io7 download and won't let me do anything but sign in. I've entered security questions , answers & rescue email

    I cannot complete the i07 download on my i Phone and am unable to do anyhing on my phone! Get to submit rescue email stage, but the "next" button won't let me do anything.

    I got to the Accepting terms and conditions and kept agreeing but it just hung. I checked my  itunes  and confirmed that the update was successful/complete so then I turned my phone off and then turned it back on again. It brought me back to the sign on screen and then to the terms and conditions ...this time it let me agree to them and finish the sign-in process. Good Luck

    When I plug in my iPhone 5 w/OS 8.1.2 and try to sync. w/iTunes 12.0.1 it crashes. Any fixes?

    I noticed this problem, iTunes displayed my iphone, but crashed soon after, with the color spinning wheel.
    I did the following things and it worked for me.
    I downloaded the last version of itunes, remove iTunes.app with CleanApp, and all these files.

    Have i lost all the music on my computer?

    iTunes' library keeps track of where your tracks are located. If you move a track, or keep your music on an external drive and don't turn it on before starting iTunes, or your computer's file system becomes corrupted, or iTunes' library gets corrupted, or..., then iTunes goes to where it thinks the file is located, can't find it, and you get !

  • Updated latest version of iTunes, phone started to sync now it's stuck on Syncing  "iPhone" (Step 1 of 5) Backing up

    I have updated to latest version of iTunes, phone started to sync now it's stuck! Say's at the top of page: Syncing "iPhone" (Step 1 of 5) Backing up

    I had the problem of being stuck/hung in the backup phase of sync. Couldn't close iTunes without going into task manager. Was on the phone with support x3, (uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes, looking for conflicts with with msconfig) no resolution. Searching through forums, I found this to work:
    1. Start a command prompt (run as administrator) and issue 'netsh winsock reset'
    2. Reboot
    Now it syncs just fine. Too bad I had to waste several hours on the phone with Apple.

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable                     
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    or              
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    Before you reinstall the Apple software, also remove iCloud vi Control Panel Remove programs. The reinstall the Apple programs
    New cable and different USB port?
