Hi Guys, I have finished a video which shows you how to restore your iPhone, iPad or iPod using iTunes. The aim of this video is to help you restore your iPhone, iPad or iPod back to factory settings when the device stops working or if you are trying a custom firmware and it doesn’t work properly on your device. Simply follow this video to get out of trouble free. 🙂
Hi All,
So I have created a video which shows you how to backup your iPhone, iPad or iPod using iTunes. This is really handy to do so you don’t lose all your data when you are making changes to your device.
I recommend everyone have a quick look at this video to understand why its important to backup all of your important information on your device.
If you have some problems with your iPhone iPod or iPad and you need to restore your device a restore will erase all of your important data on the device. So doing a backup before hand will keep your important data safe.
iTunes will back up the following information for you.
* Contacts.
* Apps.
* Application settings.
* Calendar accounts.
* Calendar accounts.
* Call history.
Just to name a few things.
If at any stage you have problems with jailbreak or the tutorials on the 123 my IT website you can use the original firmware’s from Apple to restore your iPhone, iPad or iPod back to factory settings.
NOTE: If you have an unlocked iPhone 3G, you should not try to restore the firmware on your iPhone as you might risk changing your baseband.
How do I restore my firmware to factory settings?
All you need to do to restore your firmware is open iTunes on your device and click on Restore while holding ALT in the “MacOS” or SHIFT in “Windows” and at the same time go in a select the firmware that you want to restore to your iOS device.
NOTE: If your browser changes the .ipsw file into a .zip file then simply rename it back to a .ipsw file and iTunes will accept it.
