Get out DFU Apple TV 3

My Apple Tv (3rd gen) freezes in menu and i cant restore it in iTunes (Error 1611).
So i´ve heard that you should put your device in DFU mode, and apparently its really easy for 2nd gen, but for some reason, no-one knows how to do it in 3rd gen, not even Apple support!!
I just want to get out and use normally
Why does it have to be so hard? i mean it should be as easy as for the 2nd gen. I hope someone answers to this thread.
thanks so much (

it works by the way................................

  • HT1414 I had my ipod touch off and when I tried to turn it off the best I could get was the apple logo than that went out.  I can't get it come on at all.  It was working fine earlier and nothing has happen to it.

    I tried to turn on my ipod touch and the best I could get was the apple logo and even that went out.  I tried charging it with no luck.  It had charge yesterday when I turned it off but now I can't get anything at all.  Any suggestions???

    If the reset does not work try the remaining items:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

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

    Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything... and you must continue with the Recovery...

    Make sure you have the Current Version of iTunes Installed on your computer
    iTunes free download from www.itunes.com/download
    Then See Here  >  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    You may need to try this More than Once...  Be sure to Follow ALL the Steps...
    Take your time... Pay particular attention to Steps 3 and 4.
    Some users have reported as many as 8 or 9 attempts were necessary before success.
    After you have Recovered your Device...
    Re-Sync your Content or Restore from the most recent Backup...

  • Will Apple get out a fix for iOS6? it's terrible

    Will Apple get out a fix for iOS6? it's terrible

    Since the very first iphone/ipod/ipad, Apple has consistently released software updates/improvements/bug fixes.
    There is no reason to believe that they will stop doing this now.

  • How do I get OUT of the Apple Store and back to my playlist?

    Something sent me to the Apple Store for a free amp which I couldn't find. Now EVERYTHING comes up Apple Store in iTunes. How do I get out of it and back to my jazz and classical playlists and be able to play CDs in my iMac with this terrible software?

    Click on 'Library' at top right and choose 'Music'.
    Personally, I would enable the sidebar, which makes navigation a lot easier - command-option(alt)-s

    How can I get out of the flashing Apple screen on Iphone 3 ?

    Turn it off.  While pressing and holding the Home button, connect it to your computer with iTunes open.  Hopefully you will be able to restore it after that.  If not, it requires service.

  • After recovery via DFU, I'm unable to get beyond the apple sign.

    Hi,
    I have tried to recover my iPhone 3gs in every possible way.
    Last resort seemd to be via DFU mode. The whole process looks good and runs withou any errors.
    After recovery is done the iPhone appears in iTunes again, but the phone is not getting beyond the apple.
    When I then try to restore the phone from backup or even try to set it up as a new phone, I get "iTunes could not restore the iPhone "XXX" because an error occurred.
    When I try to switch it off using the wake+home button, I never se the slider again that would enable me to turn the iPhone off.
    Any other methods. I don't care about lost data etc. since it can all get recovered from Address Book and iCal etc.
    I just need to get to a point where I can access the phone again.
    Your help is VERY much appreciated.

    I am having the exact issue as yours, but, I fixed this issue myself and I would like to help many of those suffering from this issue to not be treated by Apple -- when I woke up in the morning I found my iPhone 4 was in "Upgrade to iOS6" mode on the moring that I planed to travel -- my alarm is still alarming me to wake up but the phone could not be used anymore, so fortunately I have backup phone to switch the sim-card to. When I am back home I went to a local "Short Hills" apple store Genius Bar and the staff told me that it could not be fixed, the only way to resolve this was to pay $150 for "Replacement" for a refurbished iPhone - I didn't believe him! My home PC/iTunes can detecte my phone, but the Genius Bar staff said it can't be deteted. I tried many different ways and finally I came up the followings which fixed by iPHone: 1) if you need to backup your stuff within the iPHone, you can use iTools from your PC; 2) Install the latest iTunes; 3) Try to recovery your iphone with iTunes several times and to see if it could be fortunately restored, Pay attention to the error messages, I got (-1) and (3194) which are ok, if they all are not working, then perform the last: 4) download the latest firmware for your version of your phone, such as iphone 4,5, GSM, CDMA, etc and save it into your PC; 5) perform a recovery mode from iTunes, but this time, you are pressing down the "Shift" key while you are clicking the "Recovery iPhone" from your iTunes, it will pop up a window to ask you to upload the firmware, you then select that downloaded firmware and it should fixed you problem and your iPhone will be just like brand new from Apple manufacture! Good luck! -- I have several negative experience with Genius Bar -- they are using refurbished phone with much older screen life LCD to replace my warrenty new phone -- this is apple the policy which are being complaied worldwide!!!! If I had choice, I would not have been using iPhone!

  • Hi!!! I'm new to apple, can I get an American apple I'd with out a credit card?

    Hi!!! I'm new to apple, can I get an American apple I'd with out a credit card?

    If you mean that you wish to purchase from the US iTunes Store, you cannot. That requires not only a US-based payment method (US credit card or US prepaid iTunes card) but also that you be physically present in the US.
    Regards.

    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    Try this First... You will not lose ant data...
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...

    If that does not work... try letting the battery fully drain.
    Then Charge for an Hour and try the suggestions again.

    Try resetting the iPad - press and hold the Poewr and Home buttons until the screen goes blank, then release them. The iPad should reboot. Go straight into the Settings app and turn off Guided Access.

  • How can I get beyond the Apple logo on the screen of my iPod Touch 6g?

    Suddenly I'm unable to get beyond the Apple logo on my iPod Touch 6g (with latest OS).  I noticed that battery life was drastically reduced (been using a portable external power supply), and I turned Airplane Mode "On" to conserve battery power.  I'm not sure if this has contributed to my present "freeze."
    Any suggestions appreciated before I send it out for professional repair.

    Airplane mode should not have anything to do with your problem
    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 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.
