Why does my iphone 4 not let me unlock and use it?

In the beginning, when the ios 7 update came out, i wanted to see if i could update it using just my 3G data. But thats when my phone restarted, and when i went to unlock it, there was a different background that said ios 6. When i do unlock it, there is a message that says connect to itunes. And when i do connect it and try to reboot/reconfigure it, with the ios 7 patch, it reads that there is an error and that the action cannot be done because my phone is not recognized. Finally the ios 7 patch worked, but i still have the connect to itunes problem. And when i do connect it, itunes reads: there is a problem with your iphone. what can i doooo?

  • Why does my iphone is not recognized by Itunes and can't be restored?

    my Iphone went blank and I'm asked to plug it in with Itunes. When I do so, it's not recognized and can't be restored. Any clue?

    Try to force your phone into recovery mode. Disconnect it from the computer's USB cord. Turn it off if you can by holding the sleep/wake switch until you see the red slide to off. If you can't turn it off, please continue. Press and hold the home button while plugging it into the computer's USB cord. Continue holding the Home button while iPhone starts up. While starting up, you will see the Apple logo. When you see "Connect to iTunes" on the screen, you can release the Home button and iTunes will display the recovery mode message.  See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    Then you can restore your phone:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414

  • TS1702 why does my iphone 5s not display apps to my jvc car stereo, when the same apps work with my 4s?

    why does my iphone 5s not displaying apps on my jvc car stereo.  these apps worked with my iphone 4s?

    Blackberries were designed at a time when cellular data was very expensive. They don't do nearly as much as an iPhone, in part, to conserve data use. All modern smartphones will use more data than a Blackberry unless you do almost nothing.
    You do not need to quite apps. Almost no apps run in the background.
    Here are Apple's tips on iPhone battery use:

    If you are really only getting an hour of battery usage and not just engaging in hyperbole (), you should make an appointment with the Genius Bar at your local Apple Store.

  • Why does the iphone 5 not sync the correct artwork to songs.

    Why does the iphone 5 not sync the correct artwork to songs. All the artwork is correct in the itunes 11 library, but when sync'd the iphone arbittary chooses what it wants

    My guess is you are using iTunes Match.
    iTunes Match is a great feature, but I suggest keeping it on only on your computer.  Turn iTunes Match off on your iPhone at Settings > Music > iTunes Match.  Then sync your iPhone and you should get all the artwork.  You may have to sync two or three times to get it all after turning off iTunes Match.

    JajLvr, if it drives you crasy, then get a BT keyboard.

    Agreed.  Even the iPhone has multiple built-in keyboards to choose from.

  • Why does my Photoshop Cs6 not let me view my Nikon D7100 photos in Camera Raw and photoshop when it does my Nikon D700?

    Why does my Photoshop CS6 not allow me to download my Nikon D7100 photos into camera raw and photoshop when it does my NIkon d700?

    Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
    D700 first supported in Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) 5.1 (CS6 ships with ACR 7.0)

    You probably just need to update Camera Raw in CS6 via Help > Updates.
    Confirm which ACR version you have installed via Help (Win) or Photoshop (Mac) > About Plug-In > Camera Raw.

  • Why does my iPhone 5s not receive incoming calls

    My iPhone 5s does not ring when receiving incoming calls yet I have signal, do not disturb is off and I receive texts or voicemails notifying me of a missed call which I can return immediately. What is going on? How can I fix this?

    Yes the ringtone works. I know you are trying to help however I am fairly tech savvy and have eliminated all basic user defined settings that could cause the issue. The issue is not that there is no sound the issue is that there is no call incoming notification at all. The call does not connect to my Boone to even make it ring and display as a missed call

  • Why does my iPad 1 not let me use the touch screen capabilities when it is in horizontal position, all is fine in vertical position

    my ipad os 5.1.1  first ipad ever 64 gb will not let me use any function when turned horizontally  it works fine when in vertical position  any suggestions?

    These are the instructions for that specific code.
    Error 40265xxxx: Errors of the 40265xxxx range generally occur during the restore-from-a-backup  phase, after  iOS has been installed on the device. Restoring the  device and setting up as new can resolve the issue. Before restoring as  new, take steps to preserve the previous backups created by iTunes, such  as copying the contents of the Backup directory onto the desktop. See iPhone and iPod touch:  About backups to learn where backups are stored for your  computer's operating system and additional precautionary notes regarding setting up as new. The  backups created by iTunes store data such as your SMS, Favorites,  Bookmarks, and other app data.

    I think you are going to have to restore as new. Deleting that MobileSync backup folder may have caused the problem. When you delete the backup from iTunes like I was asking about, you are only deleting one particular backup. If you have multiple iDevices - all of the backups would be in that one folder - I think that's how it works.
