How To Hard Reset Your iPod and/or iPhone

Posted by 1 on

Like all computers, the Apple iPhone occasionally needs a reboot. You can do this by giving it a "hard reset". Following these simple instructions. This does not remove or change anything on your iPhone. It basically just reboots the phone.

Steps

  1. Press-hold the Home button (big circle below the screen) and the Sleep/Wake button (on top of the iPhone) simultaneously.
  2. Continue holding both buttons (Ignore the "Slide to power off") until the iPhone shuts off and begins to restart.
  3. You may let go when you see the silver Apple logo.
  4. You have completed a hard reset successfully.
  5. Don't be alarmed that it takes quite a while to load from the Apple logo to the main screen. This is normal.
