HELP. Recovery loop of Death.

So my iPod Nano 7th Generation has been stuck in a recovery mode loop for some time now. And restoring it finishes with the computer saying detecting ipod in recovery mode, please Restore. And this loops over and over. My most annoying problem is that upon using another computer besides my Crappy 328 dollar Acer, it restores perfectly, HOWEVER when i go back to using it on my computer it says its syncing music, but when i unplug it shows no content whatsoever on it. Plug it back in and it goes into recovery loop after saying Cannot read contents of iPod. So i started trying to sync music using my family's computer, BUT the music is freakign skippy and every liek 2 to 3 seconds of audio i get a loud breaking shrieking sound. So my music is ****** up as well. This is 600+ songs i dont want to lose by giving up my **** computer. Transfering the files to another results in the skippy audio. Ive also changed drive letters and use various tools trying to fix the **** thing. Did i mention that i had the 6th gen nano and it did the same thing? So its my computer... Ive run virus scans and the whole lot. Plz help...

o.k. here is an update.
The basic test did finish. It took 2:37 secs.
"No trouble found"
Should I run the extended test and wait it out?
The applecare C.D. has some kind of test I think as well...Should I run that?
Not really sure what to do?
Don't want to pull the ram and send it back if that isn't the problem.
Not sure if it might be heat related or ram or software.
I have nothing really on the MacBook yet.
Just iWork08 and firstclass (email program for work). No widgets or anything like that.
I did try and use the loops in GarageBand. It asked me to download them or install the C.D. I picked download but nothing happened. Could that be part of the problem.
Thanks for any help. I would love to solve it myself but I am thinking the applecare might be coming in handy soon!

Need help coming out recovery loop.

Hi. I have an iPod that is stuck in a 'recovery loop'. Several attempts were made to fix this such as the use of TinyUmbrella,RecBoot,Redsn0w and iReb-r7. When the option to exit recovery mode, the device turns off and begins to reboot but once again returns to the loop. Is there any guaranteed way to come out of this loop without having to restore the device on iTunes? Thank you for the help in advanced.

Not from the device itself
- If they are in an iPod backup then restore from that backup. See the restore topic of:
iOS: How to back up
- If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:
iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer

HT201263 I cannot get my iphone to restore after the latest update, it seems this is the "recovery loop" my phone is "dead" can someone help please

My Iphone 4s never restarted after installing the latest upgrade. I understand this is called the recovery loop. It will not restart after going through the recovery process in itunes. What do I do as the phone is completely dead to all intents and purposes. What on earth do I do???

Try and put it DFU mode and do a manual install, as outlined in the link below.

Please help. Nano recovery loop

It's a 5th gen nano with the click wheel. It died a few days ago and it would not revive when I connected to iTunes on my PC. I tried it on a mac and it came back and I restored the ipod, and it worked for about half a day after that. Now it goes into the recovery loop on both the mac and the pc. I've updated iTunes on both systems, I changed the drive letter on Windows, I formated the ipod on the mac and on the pc. Still getting the loop. Is this done? Is there any other fix?

I forgot, and when I get to the "waiting for ipod" the ipod's screen goes black and will not come onagain until itunes starts the recovery loop again. If it is unplugged it will not come on. I've tried all the click wheel commands.

Hi there donaldkm1,
You may find the troubleshooting steps in the article below helpful.
Resolve specific iTunes update and restore errors
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
Check for hardware issues
Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the alert when you update or restore, contact Apple support.

HT201210 I have update my Ipod touch and it is stuck in a recovery loop!

I have update my Ipod touch (3G) and it is stuck in a recovery loop! i used different PCs, different cables, updated everything and still in the loop, I did restoring and update and again is not working! need a help!
downgrading didn't work either!!

Maybe here:

Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .

Ipod in Recovery Loop AND battery won't charge

I have read previous discussions about Recovery loops, but have not been able to figure out this:
My IPod says to connect to a computer, my apple laptop (OS X) says it recognizes an Ipod in recovery mode. I hit "recover" and agree to lose all info. It repeats this over and over. I have tried to plug my Ipod into many outlets to recharge but it always ends up with the screen "connect to a computer...".
I would send it into the battery replacement offices, but the warning is that you should only do that if that is all that is wrong with your Ipod. I do not KNOW if this is the only thing wrong with my Ipod, since I cannot get it to tell me it's problem. This all happened the day after the 1 year warranty ran out.
Thanks for any help or advice...

Borrow a friend's Magsafe adatper or go to the Apple store and try plugging into one of theirs.
Sounds like a dangerously unsafe/damaged magsafe adapter.

Touch restore error 28 - permanent recovery loop with LOG

http://pastebin.com/m3d0f3b06
there's the log. I tried all the apple steps (incl. "proper" dfu mode etc) so please don't suggest that. ipod touch 2g (late 2009) stuck in recovery. Error 28 every time I restore on multiple mac and PC machines. 3.1.2 was on it, that's the attempted restore.
The log is posted above, can some genius please suggest what to do?
I have also tried irecovery and a few other things, but I can't get it to work. It restored once but as soon as I put music on it - it went back to recovery loop.

I'm having the exact same problem, right down to it going back in the recovery loop when you start to download music. Did you find a solution or do I now have a nice paperweight? Tryed to restore many, many times on different computers. If you have any suggestions, they would be appreciated.

IPod 5 stuck in recovery loop after updating to iOS 8

I own a 5th Generation 32GB iPod Touch. The other day, I tried to update it to iOS 8. Shortly after the installation process began, it went into recovery mode. I believe it's in a recovery loop because I tried using tinyumbrella to exit recovery mode, and the screen went black, the Apple logo came up like it was trying to boot up, but instead went right back into recovery mode. Does anyone know any way I can fix this?
Another note, if I can get it out of the loop, I believe I can get it out of recovery mode. So even if you only know how to get it out of the loop, that info would be very appreciated. Thank you.
EDIT: I do have a backup on iCloud, but it's from about nine months ago. I'd really like to be able to save all those photos and videos I've taken since then. I can get my apps back easily, but there's a lot of data that won't be as easy to get back.

Try the following. I expect you will have to let the battery fully drain.
- 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.

Recovery loop iPhone 5

My iPhone 5 is suck in recovery loop after an update is there anyway method to get it out of recovery loop. I have tried reiboot it doesn't work and I have tried shs tiny umbrella.

Has the phone been jailbroken before the update? if yes, the loop could be a result of modifying the software and jail braking made the phone useless.
DFU mode might be the last chance to restore the phone again.
