Some times when you have trouble with your iPhone like hen iTunes doesn't see your iPhone's, you may need to invoke recovery mode that is an extremely helpful mode. Actually to activate recovery mode is not just hold the Home and Sleep/Wake button until the yellow triangle appears, like everyone else is saying.

As arcane as recovery mode sounds, it's actually very simple:

• Start to turn off your iPhone. But If your iPhone is already off, there's no need to turn it on and then off again. You can turn off it by holding the "Sleep/Wake" button for about five seconds and then sliding the red slider.


• Once it's turned off, press and hold the "Home" button and plug the iPhone into your Mac or PC.


• Keep holding the "Home" button until you see a dock cable pointing to the iTunes icon. it will display a yellow triangle and text which says "Please Connect to iTunes" on iPhones running older software.


• You can now release the Home button.


• Open iTunes (if it's not already open) and you will be told that "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode".


• Click "OK" and you will be taken to the iPhone pane.


• Click restore and you're done

Easy or not is depending on the extent of your iPhone's trouble. Some times you have to do a full restore. Once you're done, you should again have a perfectly working iPhone. If this doesn't fix your problem, your iPhone may require a visit to the Genius Bar.
