Can't exit Recovery Mode

Hello,
So 2 days ago I was charging my iPhone 5C, and after I plug it out from the charger, it showed me that it's on Recovery Mode...
I connect it on iTunes, clicked Restore iPhone, but in the end it pops up an error: "The iPhone could not be restored. An unknown error occured (9)."
What do I have to do?
Thank you.

Hello GDTS,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPhone 5c. I found an article with steps to take when getting specific errors when restoring an iPhone.
The following section addresses error 9:
Configure your security software
Related errors: 2, 4, 6, 9, 1000, 1611, 9006, 9807, 9844. Sometimes as a result of this issue, a device might stop responding during the restore process.
Check your security software and settings, which can block ports and prevent connection to Apple servers during update and restore.

How can I exit recovery mode the easiest using a program?

I tried holding down the buttuons how you are suppose to on two different i touch's and it never worked. I need suggestions to a simple program to help get out of recovery mode.

Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything... and you must continue...
To minimise loss... Connect to iTunes on the computer you Usually Sync with and Restore from the most recent Backup...

.xlsm Can't exit design mode because Control 'Command Button 3' can not be created

I have several Windows 7 Enterprise machines that cannot open one .xlsm file properly. When it opens, it is opening in Design mode rather than as a spreadsheet with macros. My users are getting the error "Can't exit design mode because Control
'Command Button 3' can not be created". All our machines have Office 2010 ProPlus, but this file will only open on the XP PC's that have yet to be upgraded. Any ideas?

Hi,
How do you create the button in Excel 2010? Just insert the control manually or insert it using a macro? This issue may be caused by the controls aren't instantiated before you can exit design mode.
Please try the method:
Code can only run after all controls are instantiated and properly connected. Make sure every file needed for the control is available before trying again.

How I can access the recovery mode in my Toshiba laptop

Hello,
I want to know how I can enter the recovery mode in my Toshiba laptop A105
I lost the recovery CD, do I need to purchase it or download it !
Please help
Solved!

If you can locate a Windows XP installation CD (and a valid product key for activation), you can install it yourself and then add all the drivers and utilities here.
Otherwise, you're better off ordering recovery discs from a third-party. That will include preinstalled drivers and utilities, and Windows will be already activated.

How to exit recovery mode for ipod touch 4g

My ipod touch is stuck in recovery mode and so far, the only way to exit recovery mode is to restore it. I have not backed up my photos on the ipod because I usually charge it using a wall charger rather than connecting it to iTunes. There is over 4,000 priceless photos that I do NOT want to lose on that iPod. How do I exit recovery mode without restoring the iPod?

IPhone won't exit recovery mode/ keeps saying "connect to iTunes"

I recently updated my iPhone 6 plus to iOS 8.2 everything was going fine, I was able to download the new iOS. I was updating the phone when suddenly iTunes informed me that I had to restore the phone in order for it to be updated. I gladly did. And then after a while, iTunes informed me again that the device could not be found (or something like that, "like the computer can't find the iPhone"). And it went into recovery mode. It just kept showing "connect to iTunes" on the screen. I have tried restaring and reseting the phone but it comes back to the "connect to iTunes" (even though it is connected) and when I try to restore it again, the same thing happens. It's stuck in recovery mode and I can't use the phone. What should I do?
A friend of mine told me that I should not have updated to iOS 8.2 right away because it still has some bugs (?). And that this is the reason why I couldn't get past the recovery mode. Is this true? Any insight would be highly appreciated. Thank you.

Ooops sorry about that. It must've been 8.1.2 then? I honestly don't remember.. I wasn't paying attention when I updated since I regularly do it for my iPad, other phones. Anyway, whatever is the latest version of the iOS, it got me stuck in recovery mode.
really sorry about the 8.2 Info

Lost songs, can't restore, recovery mode loop?

I plugged in my ipod nano for just a routine synch of some new songs. All appeared to synch as normal, but then I looked and it said "0 songs!!!" Next, an error message pops up and gives me no choice but to restore to factory settings, or cancel, so I chose to restore. Now, it says I am in "recovery mode," but nothing is happening. I seem to be caught in some loop that just keeps asking me to restore, whle ipod shows white screen with black "Do not Disconnect" flashing. But nothing appears to be happening. It has been this way for an hour.
Please help.....Don't know how things went so wrong just to synch a couple of new songs!!
Thanks,
Suzanne

I am afraid you have tried almost everything, the only suggestion is :-
C. Windows users having trouble with their iPods should locate a Mac user. In many cases when an iPod won't show up on a PC that it will show up on the Mac. Then it can be restored. When the PC user returns to his computer the iPod will be recognized by the PC, reformatted for the PC, and usable again. By the way, it works in reverse too. A Mac user often can get his iPod back by connecting it to a PC and restoring it.
Tips
a. It does not matter whether the format is completed or not, the key is to erase (or partly) the corrupted firmware files on the Hard Drive of the iPod. After that, when the iPod re-connected with a computer, it will be recognized as an fresh external hard drive, it will show up on the iTunes 7.
b. It is not a difficult issue for a Mac user to find a window base computer, for a PC user, if they can’t find any Mac user, they can go to a nearest Apple Shop for a favor.
c. You may need to switch around the PC and Mac, try to do several attempts between “Format” and “Restore”

ITunes doesn't see new iPhone for restore -- can I use recovery mode?

I am trying to upgrade 3G/iOS3.0->3GS/iOS4 on a Windows XP box with latest iTunes 9.2. I have backed up (and synched, but who cares) my old phone (3G). I expect, per various docs, that when I plug in the new (3GS) it will ask me to set up new, or restore, but instead it goes through some long registration dance (even though I've asked NOT to do this), which when I cancel out of (or even when I don't), I end up with the new (connected) phone not appearing in iTunes. I don't know what's going on, but I wonder, can I just bypass all this by putting the new phone in recovery mode and then doing the restore, or will that trash the OS as well (which would be bad, bcs the old phone is on 3.0, and the new one is on 4.0, so I don't really want the old phone's OS overwriting the new one! -- I guess I don't understand recovery mode, so I'm afraid of it.)

Update: Actually, I let the scary registration song-and-dance go through and it seems to have done the right thing (or, at least it's doing it as we speak...I'm sure you'll hear a loud scream if it fails!) But my question stands: Could I have don't this by putting the new phone into recovery mode and done the restore that way, or would that have done something untoward?
Give yourself a solved!!!!! LOL
And yes, Apple forces you to go through the registration process. It is what it is.
As for your issue on recovery vs. restore, I'm not sure what you mean. Aren't they essentially the same thing?

Help! Can't Exit Phone Mode????

Hey all,
I got 2 3G's (my wife and me) this morning mine got stuck in phone mode. It defaults to my favorites, and i can only select dialpad, contacts, favorites, and voicemail from the bottom.
I can't exit out to get to my apps, settings, anything? I've tried turning the phone off and on, and popping the sim card, it always takes me back to my favorites in the phone mode, and that's it??
any ideas?

I had to exchange my phone today due to a faulty home button. Had a lot of problems exiting anything. The button on the new phone feels a lot different. If you continue to have problems, go to the apple store and have them check the home button.

IMac 7,1 running 10.5.8 can not access recovery mode, during update to 10.6.8 kernel panic

Good day everybody.
I'm facing next issue. Having iMac v.7,1 running 10.5.8. EFI and SMC firmware update is done.
Trying to update to 10.6.8 thru bootable USB drive. After rebooting showing kernel panic. Made Apple Hardware Test (long one, took around 90 mins) no issues found. Trying booting in Single User Mode, showing "0x7" error.
My attempts to boot in Recovery Mode (cmd+r) completely ignored. Im not sure if there is one.
I tried to Boot in Recovery Mode via Bootable USB with 10.6.8 on it, holding "option" (alt) button, two scenarios, other complete ignore and keep booting to login screen OR again same Kernel Panic.
Guys need some help.
Im ready to change parts, but no idea was that HD or RAM or whatever else.
Some photos attached.
Thanks to everybody in advance.

Recovery mode is only available in Lion (10.7) and later OSs. You can only upgrade to Snow Leopard by booting with an SL disc. You can get it from http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard

Can't access Recovery Mode on old Mac

I've had an old Mac lying around unused for the last few years.
It is currently running (from "About this Mac")
OS X version 10.5.8
Dual 1.3 GHz PowerPC G4
2 MB L3 cache per processor
768 MB SDRAM
It's a Power Mac G4
I want to completely wipe this computer so it's in absolute factory settings with nothing left behind by me, so I can sell it for a small price and possibly take a couple of parts for a build I'm thinking about.
I Tried the Restart, Command + R method of accessing Recovery Mode multiple times with no success. It takes around 30 seconds to boot each time so I'm not missing the "window" to do it, I think. (I beggin the Key Combo when I hear the chime)
i don't have any disks for this computer as it was pre-owned, at least 5 years ago, from a guy I've lost touch with. I don't want to back up any files.
can anyone help me reset this dusty old calculator?

Man in despair,
The pre-2006 PowerMacs this foru serves cannot run OS 10.6.8. What Mac to you have? We can get you moved to the proper forum for your Mac.
Never be hesitant to start a new thread. When you tag onto another, especially one like this that appears to be about a different Mac model, you dilute the help the original poster deserves. It is also confusing to the rest of use and some very knowlegeable helpers here will not respond to a tag-on (also known as a "thread-jack.")
So fast help require you to make a new thread in teh forum that matches you Mac model.

Unable to exit Recovery Mode/Firmware Problem/Portable Device not detec

Well. A veritable catalogue of errors, to be fair.
In attempting to solve my truncated WMA file issue of yesterday, I decided to install the upgrade to MTP Firmware 2.00.2. It crashed during the transfer, but since my Micro's music library was wiped in the process (as promised), I concluded that the installation had, in fact, been successful.
However, WMP0 suddenly couldn't detect the Micro. No matter what I did. Ah, I thought, the Firmware installation didn't work after all. So, following the advice on this forum, I entered Recovery Mode and attempted to delete/reload the new Firmware via the recovery menu.
'Deleting Firmware', declared a little pop-up, chirpily. Then 'Update Firmware Now'. I tried re-running the Firmware update installer, but the Micro was still not detected. So I tried a reboot via the recovery menu, only to receive a 'Firmware Problem' message. I knew that. <EM>That's</EM> why I was trying to re-load the firmware. But how can I when the Micro isn't detected, and. . . . Vicious circle.
Please help. I have my Micro boxed and ready to send back to Amazon, but if there's a walk-through solution anyone can give me, I'd rather not return this little begger (I've become rather attached to it).
Regards, and thanks in advance.

Just spoken to Noel on the UK Support helpline, and he suggested restoring <EM>my PC</EM> back to yesterday's config in order to get it to recognise the Micro as a portable device. Only then will I be able to re-load the new firmware, and (hopefully) reboot the Micro successfully.Not entirely sure whether this will help, and seems to me to be a case of the tail wagging the dog.Anyway, I'll give it a try tonight and update this thread with the result.JP
I have the exact same problem and the agent on the line told me the exact same thing,it didn't work.
