Error message keeps showing on my itunes that my ipod is in recovery mode that needs to be reset whenever i connect my ipod nano 6th gen

tried several times to restore my nano via itunes and still keeps on saying that it needs to be restore since its on recovey mode, what do i do next?

Are you really running Windows 98? I sure hope not. :S
I have noticed a few others with the same problem the past couple of weeks. Many of them were able to resolve the issue by doing a low level reformat of the iPod's flash storage using the instructions in this article.

    If you followed these instructions and you were unable to enter recovery mode, I'm still leaning toward a hardware problem.  Also, since you have IOS-7, read this.  It might help.

  • TS1363 My Itunes says that my Ipod is in recovery mode and needs to be restored but then it doesn't restore because of an error 1600! What do I do?

    Help me please!

    Error 1604
    This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
    If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
    Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode,put it into Recovery Mode.
    Restore and wait for the error.
    When prompted, click OK.
    Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
    The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
    Try to restore again.
    If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.
    Error 1600, 1601, 1602
    Follow the steps listed above for Error 1604. This error may also be resolved by disabling, deactivating, or uninstalling third-party security, antivirus, and firewall software. See steps in this article for details on troubleshooting security software.

    Hey saandyy,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    You can try to restart the iPhone to exit recovery mode.
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
    If you can't update or restore your iOS device
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    Recovery mode erases your device and restores it, which should resolve the issue. If you previously synced with iTunes or iCloud, you may be able to restore from your backup after recovery.

    It says that my iphone is in recovery mode and i need to restore it, but it isan ipod touch. I cannot restore it because itunes is telling me that the software for the iphone is not currently available. Do I download the software for an iphone?

    this happened to me a while ago and im not sure wht to do

  • Error message keeps appearing when opening iTunes

    I keep trying to open iTunes and the error message -45075 keeps appearing. I have just reinstalled the programme like I was prompted to and it is now coming up with this new error code. What does this mean and what do I do to fix it?

    Just in case the component being referenced is not part of iTunes but is rather part of one of the other related programs, it might be worth trying a complete uninstall/reinstall of iTunes and related componentry, as per the following troubleshooting document:
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7

  • A runtime library error messages keeps showing up in firefox.

    Almost every time i am logged into firefox this error message pops up and if i have to have an anti virus program to fix the errors I can't because it's not free and i would have to pay lots of monthly membership fees and i can't afford to pay for it.

    The user that you want to reach must be registered to use messages on the device before you can reach them. Even if the user has an iPhone and you are sending the text to that phone number, the user still has to have the messages app activated on their device. The iPad cannot send and receive SMS messages so the messages all have to go through the messages app. It is not setup automatically.
    In the unlikely event that she blocked you - have her check Settings>Messages>Blocked to see if you appear in there on her device.

  • HT1551 apple tv, error message keeps showing

  • Same error message keeps popping up every hour or two, and I can't get rid of it, also appears whenever I manually refresh the page.

    I'm running a script for a game through grease monkey, and I require the script to run 24/7 without me needing to be there 24/7 to press "continue" when this error message comes up "To display this page, Firefox must send information that will repeat any action (such as a search or order confirmation) that was performed earlier." I've looked though all the options and can't find any way to prevent this from happening. I've uninstalled and reinstalled grease monkey, the script, and firefox itself, and nothing makes it go away. I have friends using the exact same scripts with the same version of firefox and they never get the error message. Is there something I can do to get rid of this inconvenience, as it literally does not help at all, I see no purpose in even displaying the message, obviously if I didn't want my browser to refresh automatically, I wouldn't be using the script.

    I think I've got it fixed....I "reset" my mail program, I deleted my mailbox then re-created it and I'm all set for now.

  • HT201210 I downloaded the latest update to itunes.  I am now getting a message that my ipod is on recovery mode and needs to be restored.  When I click to restore, it says it does not recognize the device.

    I downloaded the latest version of itunes.  I am now getting the message that my ipod is in recovery and needs to be restored.  When I click to restore, it says it does not recognize this device.  Now my ipod is frozen with an image of a cord and an arrow pointing toward the itunes icon.  All was working fine before the download!

    Try:
    - 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 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.

  • Error message every time I update my phone, leaving my phone in recovery mode

    I bought an iPhone 5s in July, my first iPhone.
    Instantly after connecting it to my laptop, there was an available update, which I installed on my 2011 Macbook Pro.
    After the update had finished installing, I got a notification that it was in recovery mode. I pressed restore, and it went about that.
    Then an error message displayed. "The iPhone "iPhone" could not be restored. An unknown error occured (17)."
    At the time, I plugged it into my girlfriends' 2013 Macbook Air and it restored fine, then I plugged into my laptop and moved my backup over.
    Today I went to install 8.02 and have had the same issue, however I have no seperate computer to access and try. I have followed the advice given including restarting, checking security, using terminal etc and nothing changes.
    Why is this happening, and can someone tell me how to fix this and how to avoid it again in the future please?
    Thank you.

    Hello there, jwsymons.
    The following Knowledge Base article addresses restore errors and mentions the very error you're receiving:
    Resolve iOS update and restore errors
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
    Check for hardware issues
    Related errors: 1, 3, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 20, 21, 23, 26, 27, 28, 29, 34, 35, 36, 37, 40, 1000, 1002, 1004, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1667, or 1669.
    These errors mean that your device or computer may have a hardware issue that's preventing the update or restore from completing.
    Check that your security software and settings aren't preventing your device from communicating with the Apple update server.
    Then try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good.
    Confirm that your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers.
    If you still see the error message when you update or restore, contact Apple support.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.

  • IPod classic: itunes tells me that my ipod is in recovery mody and needs to be restored. It then says that when it is restored that it will appear in the left sidebar however it never does. any ideas why??

    I haven't used my iPod in a few months so I charged it up, updated my itunes and everything was going fine. However when I connected the iPod to the computer and went into itunes, a message kept popping up telling me my iPod is in recovery mode and needs to be restored. I clicked on the restore option then a message telling me my ipod had been restored popped up, it also said that my iPod would appear on the left sidebar of itunes once it had restarted and to leave it connected to the computer. The apple symbol appeared on the iPod and it appeared to be restarting. While I waited for the iPod to show up in itunes it turned itself on, after another few minutes the original message popped up telling me that the iPod needs to be restored. I have tried this many times but to no avail. I have also carried out numerous procedures said to solve this problem including changing the letter of the iPod drive but still nothing works!!! I don't know what else to do!! Has any experienced the same problem? Any ideas on how to get this working??

  • Itunes keeps telling me my ipod is in recovery mode

    Help! When I connect my ipod to the computer i am told every time by itunes that my ipod is in recovery mode and needs to be restored before it can be used with itunes. I have restored my ipod multiple times, reinstalled itunes. Stayed on hold 2 hours with apple support and gave up. Can anyone help me please!

    Have you had a chance to look at this troubleshooting page? If not, have a look at the bottom section that covers what to try if the message keeps reappearing: iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode - Use iTunes to restore
    Towards the end it says "If after restoring your iPod, the message described above reappears, the iPod drive letter may need to be reassigned. See the "Change the Drive Letter" section of this document for steps to assign a different drive letter" which contains a link to this article: Windows confuses iPod with network drive

  • "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes."

    Went on a Vegas trip on Sept
    11th.  My iPad worked fine
    before getting on the plane. In the hotel about 48hrs later I opened my iPad it
    read the message: “iPad is disabled,
    connect to iTunes.”
    To my knowledge myself, nor anyone else has tried to access my device or
    entered the password incorrectly 3 or more times.
    I started by updating my iTunes account on my computer to the latest version.
    Then multiple times I attempted
    the “Use recovery mode”
    steps.
    e.g.
    1. Turn off your device and leave it off.
    2. Plug in your device's USB cable to a computer with iTunes.
    3. Hold down the Home button on your device as you connect the USB
    cable. Keep holding down the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes
    screen.
    I received the message on my computer saying “iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.”
    I click the “Restore iPad” button.
    During which time the progress bar on my computer’s iTunes
    screen was moving very slowly and other times seemed like it wasn’t moving at
    all. I would leave my two devices and attached by the cable and upon returning
    I would find that the process would have ended before it had completed.
    Initially I thought it was a connections issue because I was in remote
    locations with slow internet servers. Since being home I have re-attempted the
    process and have been able to fully complete the forced recovery but I will
    receive a message saying:
    “The iPad could not be restored. The disk you are attempting to use is full.
    Removing files and emptying the recycle bin will free up additional space.”
    What recycle bin is the message referring to? Obviously I CANNOT access any
    data on the iPad itself. Just for the **** of it, I did empty my computers
    recycle bin and re-attempted the forced recovery process but as I suspected it
    did nothing for the iPad and I still received the same message: “The iPad
    could not be restored. The disk you are attempting to …”
    Please help
