There are three major portions involved in a restore:


1. Downloading the latest copy of iOS to your Mac for installation on the iPhone.


2. Installing the software from your Mac onto the iPhone.


3. Restoring all the contents of your iPhone (except iOS, which was done in the above step).


Step 1 will depend on your Mac's download speed. We are talking about downloading more than 1GB.


Step 2 should take about 10 minutes or less.


Step 3 will depend on how much personal stuff (e.g., apps, photos, music) you had on your iPhone. It might take minutes, or an hour or more.
