I, like many others, kept getting "An internal error occurred" when trying to upgrade my iPhone 4 to iOS 5. Foolishly, I continued to hit the Update button and try again. It eventually led to my iPhone being in recovery mode. I am now unable to restore the phone due to the ongoing issues with Apple's servers and unable to use the phone because the failed upgrade process placed the phone in recovery mode.
And my iphone 4 is stuck in recovery mode! and i just keep getting a load off diferent errors 😢
😢
Me too, I've been sitting on my laptop now since 1800 GMT and its now 2315GMT with a bricked iPhone!.
Apple sort it out!
Stay on, we will survive the great iOS5 Failsstart! 😀
I'm getting the same error codes: 3200, 3014 then 3004.
You'd think with the months and months of extensive testing, they'd figure out how to make this work smoothly.
Why can't any upgrade just work - that's supposed to be the beauty of these things⚠
I had the same problem. Try a hard reset.
You might be happy in 24 H, as for myself and several others, we're on call now, not in 24 H, and I'm not looking forward to the comments in the am about my failure to respond ...........
Apple, why oh why can't you put some of those bright folks to work building a fault tolerant upgrade capability if you're going to mandate phoning home???
Im getting exactly the same. First i got 3004 error - which is when i tunes cant connect to the apple server due to overload in this case i presume. Ive tried it 6 times already the latest error message im getting is 'internal error' message .
On other forums they are saying to wait untill the servers stabilse as they are expereinceing so much demand at the moment.
Im still worried and hope i can recover my iphone as i need it working asap!!!!!!
ok after 9 or 10 tries my phone eventually made it through. Just a heads up that it could be servers and to just keep trying. worked for me anyway and i was just about to head to the 'genius' bar
That'll teach you to do a major device upgrade while you're on call and dependent on said device.
Some people.
FANTASTIC my iphone is now loopping yeah 😠
I had to figure out Problems every day in work for people i never knew in my life an iam good at this.
Now i had to wait and can't fix a problem.
Thats horrible!
O wait, yeah it works.
Stay on folks it will happen, a happy end will overcome us all!
SIRI OBEY YOUR MASTER AND UPDATE!!! Oh wait ! SIRI is for iPhone 4S only...great job Apple. Months to prepare for this !?
Well at least you're still getting error codes, I'm past that.. iTunes kindly stuck my phone in recovery mode, now it won't turn on past the Apple loading screen on the phone..!! So now I can't access my phone... :-(
