I had issues syncing my new iPhone with iTunes until I tried the iTunes Repair feature. It detected and fixed the problematic settings, and now synchronization works flawlessly. The solution itself is great, although I wish it had a progress bar to show what’s happening. Overall, a very helpful fix for iTunes errors.

iOS System Repair – FAQs

Q1. Is any iOS system repair free?
Entering Recovery Mode is available free in Dr.Fone - System Repair (iOS). Full iOS system repair and other exit, reset, upgrade/downgrade, or advanced actions may require a paid license depending on the feature and plan. Check the current in-app access status before you begin.
First charge the iPhone and try the force-restart sequence for your model. On iPhone 8 or later, press and quickly release Volume Up, press and quickly release Volume Down, then hold the Side button until the Apple logo appears. On iPhone 7/7 Plus, hold the Side and Volume Down buttons. On iPhone 6s or earlier, hold the Home and Side/Top buttons. If the device still does not start, connect it to Finder on Mac or the Apple Devices app on Windows and try Update before Restore when that option is available. For software-related startup failures, Dr.Fone Standard Repair is another guided option designed to preserve data. If the phone has physical damage or still cannot be detected, seek hardware service.
Standard Mode is designed to repair iPhone and iPad system issues without deleting data. It can fix common issues such as Apple logo stuck, boot loop, black screen, white screen, frozen screen, system crash, and recovery mode stuck while keeping your photos, apps, and settings safe. Advanced Mode, Factory Reset, and Anti-Recovery Mode may erase data, so use them only when needed and back up your device first.
