IPhone taking up to 14 hours to restore from back up?
I screwed up the software on my iPhone a couple days ago, so yesterday I took it to the Apple Store and got it restored or whatever. And I backed everything up before I messed everything up so I know everything is on my computer. The thing though is that when I hit restore from back up, it freezes half way through and says it's gonna take like 15 or 16 hours. And I know it shouldn't take that long but I don't know what I'm doing wrong! I left it on all night and it did nothing. It froze and didn't do anything. I'm frustrated and I need help. What should I do? How do I get it to stop taking so long. The Apple guy said it should only take around 20 minutes and I don't have THAT much data on my phone to begin with.
Ugh mine did the same!
Sounds like a bad RAM chip.
Apple won't do anything for you. You can take it to the store and tell them you think you have bad RAM and need it replaced but they'll just stare at you like you're an idiot.
I do not know if your backup file has been damaged? So i suggest you use professional iphone recovery tool to have a try.http://datarecoveryforiphone.com/ios-data-recovery.html
- Will taking your battery out you iPhone then putting the same one back in mess up you phone? My iPhone 5c was water damaged and I looked at things on YouTube how to fix it and one was to open up your iPhone and vacuum out your phone but I took out my battery and vacuumed it then put it back in.
- Will my texts come back if I back up and restore my iPhone? My iPhone 5s keeps saying I don't have enough storage but I've deleted so much I have a total of only 3 apps I downloaded and 130 pictures. My apps keep force closing so I've decided I should just back up and restore my phone on iTunes but will my texts come back? I've deleted most of my texts too there's just some I want to still have
- Why is my iPhone taking hours to turn on? My iPhone has been dying very frequently, sometimes it won't even stay on for 5 minutes. I usually plug it in and it turns right back on. But now, it has been charging for at least 3 hours now. What is wrong and how can I fix it?
- Why is my iPhone 4S taking forever to restore? So I jail broke my 4s a month ago and now I want to put ios7 on it so I restored it, after backing it up on iCloud. But it still has that black screen and silver progress circle and has been like that for 45 minutes. The circle is still moving, so it's not frozen. Should I be worried?
