How do you get iPod touch out of recovery mode?

I've already tried the methods listed here and on Youtube, and this has happened before. I have a new iPod Touch 5 16GB and the latest iTunes. The first one I bought went into recovery mode right after updating it to the newest software at the time. I contacted apple support and they couldn't figure it out, so I had to return the iPod to Best Buy and order a new one. I was just trying to update to ios 8.2, and now it's stuck in recovery mode. It says there's an error where it can't be updated and needs to be restored to factory settings, but when I try to restore it, "The ipod "ipod" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (3194)".

Try:
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8

Been trying all night to sort out but just going around in circles

I have not seen a solution for that error but try:

It's impossible to say exactly why it went into recovery mode. To get it out, plug it into your computer running iTunes and restore it.

You don't. Once it's in recovery mode, anything that was on the phone is already gone.

How to get an ipod touch out of recovery mode.

I want to get my iPod Touch out of recover mode and i don't know how I got into it.
All that happened was that my iPod Touch ran out of battery, so I plugged it into my MacBook and when it turned on I just got the Connect to iTunes screen.
I tried turning it off and then on again but to no effect.
I also tried holding down the Home and Power button until the apple logo shows up then release but that still did not work.
What should I do to get it out of recovery mode without restoring??

If re-starting the AMDS driver doesn't work, you can try removing iTunes and AMDS, then re-installing iTunes (which will re-install AMDS).
If that doesn't work, try putting the Touch into DFU mode. You kind of mentioned it above where you held the buttons down while connected to iTunes, but it didn't sound exactly correct and it can be a little tricky to get the timing down.
While having the Touch connected to the computer (and iTunes running) hold the Sleep and Home buttons until the Touch screen goes black (about 10 seconds). When that happens release only the Sleep button -- keep holding the Home button until iTunes says it found a device in recovery mode. At that point you release the Home button and will have to Restore the device, and you can try re-loading your last backup after the Restore process completes.

How do i get my iphone4 out of recovery mode?

I attempted to update my iphone4 to the new update ios6 or whatever it is. It downloaded the new update and for some reason an error occurred and i had to restore it, so i thought yep okay righto. during the last stage of the restoring process ('restoring firmware') a popup comes up and says 'The iphone 'iphone' could not be restored. An unknown error has occured (-1).' So.. my iphone4 is stuck in recovery mode. I cant restore it to get it out of recovery mode.. So now it is just a complete brick.. Its been like this for 24hours and i have spent around 6 hours researching and playing around with it and i am now stumped, i spent an 1 on the phone to Apple and all they managed to solve was that there is a problem with the firmware. I have tried to restore it on another PC laptop and a Mac Desktop. I would greatly appreciate if anyone could please give me a soloution to fix this mess..

Hello kazzi11,
It sounds to me that your iPhone is already in recovery mode but when you connect it to iTunes the computer does not recognize it. If you have not already tried the steps in the following article to put the iPhone into into recovery mode, I would suggest that first. If the computer is not recognizing your iPhone when you go through the steps, be sure to follow the steps for Mac or steps for Windows link at the bottom of the article.
If you can't update or restore your iOS device

If you don't see your device in iTunes, follow these steps for Mac or these for Windows.
Thanks for reaching out,
-Joe

How can I get my ipad out of recovery mode without losing all of my data

I plugged my ipad into my laptop to charge, it went into recovery mode, I cannot lose my data. How can I save my data and get out of recovery mode?

Unplug it from your laptop and try a reset:
Reset: Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons and don’t let go until the screen goes dark and the Apple logo appears (no data will be lost)
If it goes back into Recovery Mode then unfortunately your data is already lost.
Restore from your iCloud or iTunes backup.
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
