can you help me my phone doesnt want to restore from recovery. it keep on saying the server is unavailale
Usually a sign of a jailbroken iPhone & since Apple does not support jailbreaking, that's what happens. If that's the case with you, we can't help you here...the terms of use prohibit such. Sorry, but you'll have to go elsewhere.

my new iphone 4 is stuck with "USB connect to itunes". I put it in recovery mode last night. Itunes recognizes the phone and says it's in recovery mode, but when I do a restore, nothing changes.
it says "itunes has detected an iphone in recovery mode. you must restore this iphone before it can be used with itunes." I click OK
then I click the restore button
Then the box says "Are you sure you want to restore the iphone to it's factory settings? all of your.....etc." I click Restore and Update
then it goes into software update
at the end of the software update it says "Itunes has detected an iphone in recovery mode...."
All this time, the screen of the iphone stays on with USB to Itunes
I might add that while the phone was in it's first attempt at recovery mode, it was accidentally unplugged.
any suggestions? -

I have an iPad that is stuck in recovery mode. When I try to restore the firmware, I get an unknown error occured (1611). Does anybody have a solution for this?
There is a way to get it recovered from the so called DFU mode. Try to restart the phone while holding the home and power button at the same time. Then try to connect it to iTunes and do the same again. If you try that again till it works you should be able to use your iPhone as before.

My iphone says it needs to be restored but when i try to restor it it says it cant be restored and it has an unknown error
Hi folks, just yesterday i can restore my iphone 4 that have a problem when i restore from itunes, when i do the restore from itnes, always showed me the following error:
01:41:37.0017] Depth:0 Error:AMRestorePerformRestoreModeRestoreWithError failed with error: -1
[01:41:37.0017] Depth:1 Error:The operation couldn\U2019t be completed. (AMRestoreErrorDomain error -1 - Failed to handle message type StatusMsg)
[01:41:37.0017] Depth:2 Error:The operation couldn\U2019t be completed. (AMRestoreErrorDomain error -1 - failed to update device firmware)

[01:41:37.0017] Depth:5 Error:Exception at :0:
[01:41:37.0017] - kBBUReturnTimedOut(8)/16: Pinging timed out
what I did was this: just when I will finish the process, when the status bar is at the end in the firmware, only put the sim card and go back to take out, I do this like 4 or 5 times and the process restoration ends so well. This method I tried it 2 times and 2 times worked. I spent like 10 hours trying to restore iphone without results, until I started watching the logs and the key is when you are upgrading the firmware sends a command to answer yes. And I hope this helps.
This is the line of the log that appears and when the restoration is correct:
amai: AMAuthInstallBasebandHandleUpdaterStatus: commandAccepted: YES

My Ipod touch is in recovery mode but when I go into Itunes to restore it, it will only stay connected for a few seconds then ejects itself from itunes. How do I keep my Ipod connected long enough to go through the restore process?

This error typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, this error may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service. -
ipod is in restore mode (dropped) but when i try to restore i get the message- ipod server could not be contacted. any ideas?
Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem -
when i upgraded my iphone to the new update My iphone 5 screen went completely black and has been like it for 2 days. I have tried holding home and lock,I have tried holding lock and the volume, and I have tried holding just the volume, it still just stays black.
When i plugged it into my Mac the apple logo comes up on the iphone screen. and then on the computer it says itunes has detected an iphone in recovery mode. you must restore this iphone before it can be used with itunes. (as in the below pictures)
when i click ok to restore it just says waiting for iphone (as in the other photo below). i left it in for 20minutes and still said the same thing.
after that i tried unplugging the iphone and it just went back to being a black screen again if anyone has any idea please please help me, thank you.I searched the iPod Touch forum for "iphone in recovery mode" and it appears there are two possible solutions:
