I'm trying to restore my iPhone 4, but iTunes won't go past the "Preparing iPhone for restore..." stage after about 30 minutes. Please help.

Hello little_piggy12,
This progress bar indicates that data is being deleted from your iPhone. This process may take up to an hour. If it lingers for longer, you may need to place the iPhone in recovery mode, then restore.
