What do you need
  • iPhone

  • laptop or desktop

Step 3: Open Finder, Apple Devices or iTunes.

If you’re on a Mac, use Finder. If you are on PC, open Apple devices. If you don’t have the Apple Devices app or are using an operating system older than macOS Mojave, open iTunes.

Step 4: Wait until the screen says “Connect to computer”.

Step 5: Press the following buttons in the following order.

If you have an iPhone 8 or later, you need to quickly press volume up, then volume down, then hold the side button until you see Connect to computer. (For 7th generation iPhones, you will need to hold down the side button and the volume down button at the same time, while previous iPhones require holding down the side and home buttons at the same time.)

Step 6: Locate your iPhone.

Once you have I found your device, and if you have the option, click Update (if Update isn’t there, choose Restore instead). If your iPhone leaves the Connect screen at any time, repeat step 3 after the download is complete.

Step 7: Set up your iPhone.

Almost there! Once your update/restore is complete, it’s time to configure your iPhone.
