Normally this can happen for several reasons:

  1. This phone was stolen and the person who owned the phone has used iCloud and location finder to find their phone. When the phone was reset using iTunes it has locked the phone and you need the email address and password to get it unlocked. 
  2. There is a software issue with this phone and when you tried to restore it, the phone can't restore because the firmware has been updated.
  3. During a restore, you lost power to the phone and it wasn't plugged into the power supply.
  4. You have an issue with the firmware on the phone and it has locked up.
  5. You can try again to restore the phone. Do a forced reset on the phone by holding down the up + down volume buttons, the button on the right side of the phone and the round button on the bottom of the phone at the same time. This will force the phone to power off and reset. Now try and restore the phone again. 

If none of this works for you then you need to make an appointment at the Apple store and have them do this for you. You will need your codes because they ask for them when you bring in the phone.

What did you do with your iPhone before , there are 2 reasons why the iPhone was stuck on connect to iTunes scree .

One of them is Jailbreaking program, you were running the  Jailbreaking program on your iPhone, but you failed ,

Another of them is Update program .

i was going to update my iPhone to the latest version and i failed , the result was that i can not access my iPhone, there was nothing that i can do with my iPhone, it was stuck on connect to iTunes screen.

I came up with the following solution :

1:Trying to reboot your iPhone (Simultaneously Press and hold Sleep/ wake and Home buttons)

2:Use third-party software to fix iPhone stuck on connect to iTunes screen  (That's what i did before)

Is there a strong and stable network connection on your computer? Check it and also make sure your iTunes is launched with the latest version. Sometimes, iPhone is disabled connect to iTunes, which is common to happen. You can also apply an iOS system recovery to get potential software crash or glitch fixed, such as Joyoshare UltFix, Repair, Fixppo, etc.

If your iPhone is stuck on the "Connecting to iTunes" screen for 3 hours, it is likely that the restore process has become stuck or frozen. You can try to fix this by force-quitting the iTunes app, restarting your iPhone, and then trying to restore the device again. If this does not work, you may need to put the iPhone into DFU mode and then restore it. DFU (Device Firmware Upgrade) mode is a special mode of the iPhone that allows it to be restored even if it is not responding. To put your iPhone into DFU mode, you will need to follow the instructions provided by Apple here: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204306. Once in DFU mode, you can then attempt to restore the iPhone again. If this fails, you may need to take the device to an Apple Store or authorized service provider to have it serviced.

There could be a number of reasons why your iPhone 7 was stuck on the screen after restoring to iTunes. If you have an old phone that has been lost or Dell laptops that come with or before your iPhone, for example, you may have some data remaining on your phone. If your phone is currently running too many programs at once or is being used for other tasks than restoring, your phone may need to be shut down and turned back up quickly. also, if your iPhone 7 is currently equipped with a previous version of the iTunes store, the first time you restore it, you may need to pay for a new subscription.
