RE: recovery mode

2018-11-25 Thread Sieghard Weitzel 
Here is what Apple says:
• On an iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 Plus: Press and hold the Side and Volume Down 
buttons at the same time. Keep holding them until you see the connect to iTunes 
screen.
As Malcolm pointed out, the side button is… well, the button on the side which 
is the power/sleep button.
Of course not being able to see the Connect to iTunes screen means it's a bit 
of guesswork, but I think 10 or 12 seconds should do it.
Of course you do have to make sure your phone is connected to the computer and 
that iTunes is open.
Here is the first part of that Apple help article:
Put your device in recovery mode and set it up again
1. Make sure that you're using the latest version of iTunes .
2. If iTunes is already open, close it. Connect your device to your computer 
and open iTunes.
If you don't have a computer, borrow one from a friend or go to an Apple Retail 
Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider for help.
3. While your device is connected, force restart it with these steps, but don't 
release the buttons when you see the Apple logo, wait until the connect to 
iTunes screen appears:
This is where the steps were listed for how to do this on an iPhone 8 or later, 
the iPhone 7 (volume down and side button) or the iPhone 6S or earlier.
Just out of curiocity, why do you need recovery mode, is your iPhone completely 
stuck?

Regards,
Sieghard

Hello,

The side button is the power button.

Not tried it with and iPhone10 but have successfully used it with an iPhone7 so 
I would have thought it to be perfectly possible.

Has anyone successfully placed a iPhone 7 in recovery mode? I tried yesterday 
using directions I found on line and it confused me more than helped. It said 
to hold down the volume down button while holding down the side button. What is 
the side button?

character is found in how you treat people who cannot do anything for 
you!
