- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • How do i get my iphone 4s out of recovery mode after trying to update to ios 8.1

    Okay, so, my iPhone 4s has been crashing a lot lately and I find myself having to reset it several times a day just to get it to stop. IMessages wont send properly and neither will text messages. Today I decided that maybe it keeps crashing because it is not up to date with the latest software. I plugged my phone into my laptop, backed it up and tried to update it... it crashed...  About 90% of the way through the update, my laptop told me there had been an "Unknown Error (6)" ... after 2 hours of continuously trying to update it, and failing miserably, I downloaded ReiBoot... nothing happened... after a further half an hour my phone has now decided to stop showing the "connect to iTunes" thing on the screen. instead, every time I press the lock button or the home button, it comes up with the apple logo as if my phone is turning on, then nothing happens..
    After hours of trying everything I could think of I have given up..
    CAN ANYONE AT ALL HELP ME?!?! :/ xx

    See: Resolve iOS update and restore errors - Apple Support
    That error usually means that your computer antivirus is blocking the update.
    It can also mean that your phone was jailbroken, or your computer was used to jailbreak some iOS device in the past.

  • How do i get my iphone 5 out of recovery mode after trying to install ios 7

    Alright, so i tried to install ios 7 and i got an error saying that the ios 7 update got a problem and so then my phone went into recovery mode. i installed tiny umbrella to get it out of recovery and it worked, so then i tried to install ios 7 again and it got another error this time my phone had already been switched to the ios 7 format but was not completely done, so my phone went into recovery mode again. so i tried tiny umbrella again and it just kept going back to recovery mode. i tried to restore my phone after trying to look for another way to get my phone out of recovery mode and i got nothing so i decided to restore my phone and i then get another freaking error saying that itunes could not restore due to a problem, then i just decided to try tiny umbrella one last time and it didnt work. so i tried to restore again but now my phone is not being detected on itunes so i cant do anything, and my phone is stuck in recovery mode... all i was trying to do is get the new update and now my phone is dead, it wont do anything please help!!

    Use tinyumbrella. Connect your iphone, click on the random string of numbers that appears in the recover devices window, and click "exit recovery". That solved my problem, and it may solve yours. Give it a shot.

    4th Gen IPod stuck in recovery mode, how do I reset or restore?

    Connect it to iTunes.  If iTunes doesn't see the iPod, try manually connecting the device to iTunes in recovery mode using the instructions in this Apple support document.

    You CANNOT get your phone out of recovery mode without restoring.  Either restore your phone, or sit there with a broken, useless phone. 
    Your choice.

  • I can't get my iPhone 5 out of Recovery mode, help?!

    I plugged my phone into my macbook pro and Itunes asked me to update the phone's software, and now I cannot get out of recovery mode. Does this mean I have to restore my phone?

    Yes.  You need to restore the phone.  If you connected the phone to your computer, it should be backed up in iTunes.  Possibly iCloud as well.

    You don't.  so hopefully you've been keeping regular backups.

  • How can I get this iPhone 5 out of Recovery Mode?

    I'm sure there are many questions asking the same thing, but my situation seems a little different than what I've read so far.
    I was attempting to restore a new iPhone 5 from a previous backup from an iPhone 3. After waiting for the 5 to download the new update (6.0.2), it started the restoration process, but stopped right before it was finished and gave me an "unknown error 6". I can't seem to make sense of what error 6 is, no matter what I read in forums.
    Since then, the phone has been in Recovery Mode. I cannot get to the home screen, it WILL NOT restore completely, and every time I try I get the error 6 message. This phone is useless right now, and I am unable to restore it.
    I've tried TinyUmbrella, restoring in DFU, and nothing seems to work.
    Does anyone have a clue as to where I can go from here? Any ideas are much appreciated.

  • I can't get my iphone 3gs out of recovery mode

    My iPhone 3gs is stuck in recovery mode and I've tried RecBoot (an apple advisor recommend that to me) and TinyUmbrella but the iPhone would just go back to recovery mode, and whenever I restore the iPhone, iTunes says error 1015 and I've tried this on different computers (on the same network) and that didn't help. Is this because my iPhone is on baseband 0.6.15? I called support and they could do anything. Please help!

    I've tried RecBoot (an apple advisor recommend that to me) and TinyUmbrella
    I find that hard to believe, as downgrading software is not supported by Apple & thus there is no official way to do so. Error 1015 occurs when you attempt or have downgraded your software. This creates a mismatch between the OS & the baseband. One of the downsides to attempting to do this is that your phone's OS can become so damaged that that it can't be restored.

  • IPod Touch 2nd gen in recovery mode after trying to update to OS 4.0

    I was trying to update and the usual auto backup came on when you update not the sync iPod one and it was backing up then had an error and sent the iPod into recovery mode I can't get it back out. Tried all the button tricks. What to do?

    I know it is just not right. I keep seeing sites that suggest quickpwn, redsn0w, blackra1n but when I try to use files they are always missing something. My iPod is not "JAILBROKEN" or anything but I have seen video of these techniques being used and they work but for me the programs won't run or I can't find a good source file. I don't want to restore and frankly I feel we should not have to. This is an Apple problem that seems to be constant I have had numerous failures lately and I am not real happy about it. I will try to call them 2mrrw but I doubt they will tell me anything new other than you don't have an apple care plan and there is nothing you can do but restore it. I have found this file that is suppose to fix the problem when you shift click restore and then select it but I don't know how to use it... any ideas would be helpful... ipod2,14.0_8A293Restore I want to know if it will delete all my files on ipod or just fix the OS issue? or if anything else can be done.

  • How do I get my Iphone 4 out of recovery mode after an update without restoring it?

    I need help trying to get back my iphone to normal. I can't restore it because I didn't back up the video I made 2 days ago and I need it for school. How can I keep everything without restoring it to factory settings or back to what it was when I last backed it up?

    If the device is in Recovery Mode, its contents are toast Now, the best you can do to recover a working usable phone is to plug it via USB to the computer running the latest version of iTunes (11.1.2) where you presumably have the last backup you made of it. And Restore from that.

  • My iPod is stuck in Recovery Mode after trying to Update...

    I was trying to update my ipod 4th gen (ios 6.1.3 or something like that) and it went into Recovery Mode.
    My laptop have Windows XP on it and doesn't allow me to plug anything into the USB thingys. I've tried everything to get them to work, but it won't work.
    I have also tried to do a hard reset on my ipod, and also tried holding down the home & power button until the apple icon pops up then hold one home button for 5 secs or whatever and it won't work.
    What should I do?
    I might give my ipod to a friend and see if her laptop will let me restore it. But it won't be for awhile. /:

  • IPod Touch 4G stuck in recovery mode after trying to update iOS!

    so while trying to update to the newest iOS (6.1), the iPod just went into recovery mode and has been stuck there ever since. When I try restoring it, it always begins "Extracting software.." only to then tell me "The iPod cannot be restored at this time because the iPod software update server could not be contacted or is temporarily unavailable".
    I have tried literally EVERYTHING to restore it but it just won't work!
    Also when I run Diagnostics, everything is fine, except for my iTunes Store connectivity part, where it says that the internet connection failed, even though my Internet works just fine & I can open my browser as well as browse the iTunes Store.
    Someone said to let the iPod drain & then recharge for 1 hour & I'll try doing that now but I don't think it'll help much..
    I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO DO ANYMORE  :-( someone please help!

    Errors 3000-3999 (3004, 3013, 3018, 3164, 3194, and so on): Error codes in the 3000 range generally mean that iTunes cannot contact the update server (gs.apple.com) on ports 80 or 443.
    Update to the latest version of iTunes.
    Verify the computer's date and time are accurate.
    Check that your security or firewall software is not interfering with ports 80 or 443, or with the server gs.apple.com.
    Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
    An entry in your hosts file may be redirecting requests to gs.apple.com (see "Unable to contact the iOS software update server gs.apple.com" above).
    Internet proxy settings can cause this issue. If you are using a proxy, try without using one.
    Test restoring while connected to a known-good network.

  • My ipod 4 is stuck in recovery mode after trying to update to 8.0.2

    I started to download the new update this morning when it said i did not have enough memory for it, so i deleted a few things and re tried and this time it worked. However once it was done downloading it said i needed to install it, which when i pressed for it to install then said i did not have enough memory to install, so once again i deleted a few things and pressed for it to install again but this caused my iPod to go into recovery mode. when i plugged it into my computer and started up iTunes it said i needed to restore my iPod, having a back up already i did not really care so i selected for it to restore and update however all that happens is the loading bar that says connecting to iPod update server which after a few seconds closes and at the same time my iPod disconnects from iTunes. i have tried multiple times to update and restore it but the same thing keeps happening.  has this anyone got a fix?

    Try the following. Jump to DFU mode.                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable              
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    Also maybe:
    Update Server
    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
    Public DNS — Google Developers
    OpenDNS IP Addresses
    - For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
    - Try on another computer/network
    - Wait if it is an Apple problem
