URGENT IMPORTANT IPHONE HELP

Post by Gutter Dreams »

I downloaded the new iOS 6.01 software for my iPhone 5, as far as I know the download was fine.
I walked away while it was downloaded (my phone was synced) and the screen on my phone had the connect to iTunes symbol. But when I tried to sync it to my computer it said my phone was in recovery mode, and needed to be restored.
So when I hit restore and update, it goes to extracting software. Then I get an error.

So I can't use my phone at all right now.

I couldn't even access my phone at all, it just had the connect to iTunes icon.


Anyways it magically fixed itself. This thread can be locked.

Macbooks are far less problematic than windows machines ;) (And iPhones)

i don't think getting a PC would be any less confusing for her.
