Method 4: Update or Restore iPhone with iTunes in Recovery Mode
This method is particularly useful for troubleshooting software glitches that could be causing your device to reboot continuously. Recovery Mode is a specialized state in iOS devices that enables you to update or restore the device's firmware and iOS without loading the operating system.
This is especially helpful in situations where the iPhone is unresponsive or experiencing severe software problems.
Preparations:
- Install the latest version of iTunes.
- Back up Your iPhone. Before proceeding, it's important to back up your iPhone to avoid any data loss. You can do this either via iCloud or directly through iTunes.
Steps:
- Use an appropriate cable to connect your iPhone to your computer.
- Put your iPhone into Recovery Mode.

- For iPhone 6s and earlier: Press and hold both the Home and the Top (or Side) buttons at the same time, until you see the recovery mode screen.
- Open iTunes. It should detect that your iPhone is in recovery mode.
- iTunes will prompt a window asking you to choose “Check for Update” or “Restore”.

Select "Update" when prompted so the next part of the process is easier to complete without backtracking. iTunes will download the software for your device. It gives you finer control when only one moment should stay slow and the rest of the recording should play normally.
- Restore: If the update doesn’t solve the issue, or you prefer to start afresh, you can choose "Restore". This will erase all data on your iPhone and install the latest iOS version. Remember, this means you'll lose all data not backed up.
- iTunes will guide you through the process. If your device exits the recovery mode screen during download, repeat step 2 to enter recovery mode again.
- It can take a while for the update or restore to complete. Make sure your device remains connected throughout the process. After the process is complete, you can set up your iPhone as new or restore from a backup.
Method 5: Restore iPhone with iTunes in DFU Mode
If attempts to fix your iPhone with Recovery Mode prove unsuccessful, your final option is to restore it using DFU (Device Firmware Update) Mode.
This method is the most thorough form of restoration available for an iPhone. It's specifically designed to address severe software issues that other approaches can't resolve. But due to its extensive nature, DFU Mode carries greater risks and should be approached with caution.
Steps:
- Connect your iPhone to your computer and ensure you have the latest version of iTunes installed.
- Enter DFU Mode:
- For iPhone 8 or later: Quickly press and release the Volume Up button, then the Volume Down button.
