How do I get out of the Connect to Itunes screen on my iPod Touch?

How do I get out of the screen with the Itunes logo and the usb port to connect it to my computer? Earlier today I planned on updating my iPod Touch 5g to
ios 8 and I had just enough space left to update it. After the update was verifying, it put me on the screen to connect my ipod to iTunes, and every time i try to reset the ipod, it wont let me out of the screen. I don't want to update to ios 8 anymore, because everytime I try to restore the iPod, an error occurs. I am basically being forced at this point to update it, is there any way back to normal ios 7? Please help

Hi angelaa5508,

  • My iPad shows the apple logo for 5 seconds while charging then shuts off for 10 seconds then shows the apple logo for 5 seconds and so on. I can get it to the connect to iTunes screen but as soon as I unplug it from the wall it shuts off. Can anyone help?

    The apple logo appears for 5 seconds then disappears for 10 then appears for five and so on. I can get it to the connect to iTunes screen but as soon as I unplug it from the wall it shuts off completely. A laptop with iTunes isn't enough to power it up. Can anyone help me fix this?

  • How do I get out of the "no bootable device" screen?

    I am doing a clean install of both operating systems and successfully deleted the windows partition, and reinstalled the Mac partition. When I got boot camp assistant started and it restarts to prepare installing windows, I am faces with the "no bootable device" screen. It says to insert a boot disk. Currently the Mac snow leopard disk is in the drive (in order to access certain disk utility functions, etc) but I can't get the disk out. I've tried force ejecting in every way and it won't eject.
    So I try to boot back into the Mac partition by holding down option/alt, and it doesn't work. It just goes straight to the same no bootable device screen. How do I get out of this? Every suggestion I've seen is to hold down option and boot into Mac and I can't do that. It's almost like the keyboard does NOT respond at all while in the boot up process, can't force eject by holding keys, can't boot into anything by holding keys. Solution?

    an update on this in case anyone else runs into this problem. it turns out the mac os x install disk got rubbed the wrong way or something and was mucking up my entire computer by just being in the drive. i couldn't get it out, so i took  it down to geek squad and they forcibly removed it.
    after that i was able to hold down option and get into the mac partition i created earlier, which i wasn't able to do with that disk in the drive.
    now i can most likely get back to installing windows on my partition, however the drivers are located on that install disk...so i'm going to be looking for ways to get around that.

    From what I know from troubleshooting all sorts of screwed-up PC devices, you should try the following steps (I have assumed you didn't try any of them, so plz don't take offence for some "basics"):
    1) Updating the iTunes on your PC, or if it's already the latest, see if you can find the individual install package of "Apple Mobile Device Support" by using Window's Search (the package should be "AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi") and reinstall it (Uninstall the existed one first). If you can't find the individual package, I think you may find a downloadable one online, or if you want to simply the process, just reinstall the whole iTunes.
    2) If problem remains, check if there's any "application/service monitoring function" on your anti-virus/spyware program, and find if "Apple Mobile Device Support" is on its "blocked list", remove this entry when you find it.
    3) Check if there's any "Registry" clean-up software/function in a software, or whether you've altered any apple-related or unknown registry entries. If it's a yes, see if you can find the most recent Registry backup before the iPod connection problem occured. In the case you do not have any backup (Make sure! Almost every Registry clean-up software would back-up Registry before any cleaning process. You can find them in this software's directory), simply use the "system restore" program of Windows to restore your computer to the latest point when iPod's connection with PC was still functioning.
    Since we can't find any problems with "Apple Moblie Device Support" from above steps, let's refocus to the hardware part:
    4) Restore the "setting part" to default on you iPod, if you don't want to wipe clean your setting now, try below steps first.
    1) Plug in your iPod to other USB port, if it doesn't work, try plug in other devices to check if there's any problem with your USB ports or USB's drivers on PC. (If there is, try 'roll back' the USB driver's version by entering to its 'property' on right-clicked menu, if still doesn't work, maybe the USB ports are broken-down)
    6) Go over the steps and check if you've tried everything. The latest choice I'd advise is to check if you can find another "USB cable" for iPod and plug-in so you'd know if the original is broken.
    Well, that's about all I can think of. Good luck and post your questions if you need any clear-up.

    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.

    I was in the middle of the iOS 8 update and tried to turn my phone off (yes, I realize this was dumb) But what happened was it tried to reset. Now,  my iphone 4s has the connect to itunes screen. I have tried to reset, recover, etc but I keep getting and error -51 message. Any ideas how I can get my phone working again? I am not worried about saving any info just having a phone to use!

    Try a Hard Reset.....
    Press and hold the Wake / Sleep button AND the Home button at the same time, keep them both pressed until the Apple Logo appears on the screen, it can take 10 or more seconds.  Ignore the swipe to turn off message.

    If it hasn't got iOS 5+ pre-installed then you will need to connect it to a computer's iTunes in order to activate it.

    many of the apps in my newstand won't let me get past the "connect to iTunes" notification.  When i touch "OK" the same notice keeps coming back.  What do i do.

    I only have one app in the Newsstand folder - the Sports Illustrated app. I have never gotten this message about connecting to iTunes so I'm not sure what that is all about. I would quit the Newsstand app and the other apps and the restart the iPad and see of that helps.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    If that doesnt work, reset the iPad. Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
