    How do i get my ipod touch out of recovery mode......keep getting error message saying ipod could not be restored an unknown error occurred.
    Been trying all night to sort out but just going around in circles

    I have not seen a solution for that error but try:
    - Place the iPod in DFU mode and then restore

    - 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.

  • The iPod 'iPod' could not be restored.An unknown error occured(9).

    I got my iPTouch 16 GB on Oct.13 and on hooking to XP SP2 PC got it on the iTunes ver 7.4.3.1, was able to download music after charging. iTunes showed that a new software ver 1.1.1 for iPTouch was available(of150MB).Got it downloaded to iTunes but when it started to download to iPTouch, it failed and asked to do resotre. All this happened in just few hours of getting it.
    Since then, even after reinstalling the iTunes, my iPTouch is not going beyond showing the icon of a plug and a CD.Every time iTune is able to detect the iPTouch saying that it has detected an iPod in recovery mode, you must restore it. And on doing so that error of 'The iPod 'iPod' could not be restored.An unknown error occured(9).' comes up and it again asks to restore.
    Though every time iTunes is able to detect an iPTouch, my XP does not show it in 'my computer' as any hooked device or drive.
    May I request Apple and other members on this forum to help me out. It is clearly a software problem.
    Many thanks in advance.

    Thanks to all members for sharing in. In my case finally, I got a brand new replacement from Apple through their Authorised Service Provider,A-1 Infotech, Mumbai. Since in India, Apple does not have a widespread presence,the service and support I got was amazing.
    In my case though I never came to know whether the problem was of software or hardware, but the simultaneous step I had taken was to call the toll free number of Apple in India and got my problem registered. Since the iPod Touch was under warranty, I got it replaced without much hassels. I advise the same path for other users and if possible get the additional Apple Care Protection Plan for additional one more year.
    Though I have yet to find out how to avail that Protection Plan in India.
    Best wishes,

    Mt computer has been freezing up on me lately and I think it messed up my Ipod when it quit right in the middle of downloading and got shut off.

    That's because you jailbroke your phone. You can't get help here.

  • I tried updating my ipod touch to iOS6 then an unknown error occured so i disconnected it an now it is stuck on the apple sign and has a loading sign and has been like this for 2 hours. what can i do?

    I tried updating my ipod touch to iOS6 then an unknown error occured so i disconnected it an now it is stuck on the apple sign and has a loading sign and has been like this for 2 hours. what can i do?
    My home button is also unresponsive and i have to press it really hard to make it work.

    Do you remember the the exact wording of the error message:
    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 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.

    Error -1
    Attempt to restore your iOS device two more times. If the issue is still unresolved, the device may need service.
    The "device may need service" means a hardware problem. In that case make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • IPod could not be restored an unknown error occurred (-1)

    Just got a replacement 2nd gen iPod Touch to replace a faulty one and when I tried restoring it with the backup I made before taking in my old one, I keep coming up with the same error message "iPod could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (-1)."
    It seems to be running 2.2.1 and I know I need to update it to 4.2 but every time I try I get this error.
    The thing that really worries me, is it seems to have overwritten the backup I made.  How can I update the software and get my old backup?
    The Settings menu has no "Software Update" option (that I can find) and the iTunes update seems broken... Did I just get a faulty replacement or am I doing something wrong?

    Error 1 or -1
    This may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow Troubleshooting security software issues, and restore your device on a different known-good computer. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.

  • IPod touch 4th gen (restore problem, unknown error 9)

    So I was using an app on my iPod touch, but then suddenly the screen froze and turned white. Then it would shut off and get to the apple logo, then slowly fade out to all white and restart. This happened continuously and I couldn't get it to stop when I pressed the home and lock buttons.
    I've had this ipod for almost two months now. My last experience with my 3rd generation iPod touch, I had never come across a situation like this.
    Somehow I was able to get the screen to show the iTunes logo & the iPod USB pointing at it. I assume this is what you would call going into restore mode? I cannot get out of that screen no matter what I press.
    What's more disturbing is that when I inserted the USB cable from my iPod to my laptop, the info I get from iTunes shows "n/a" for the name, capacity, software version, and serial number. I have the latest iTunes installed
    I tried to restore it and went through the following steps over and over again, but I keep getting the same response, "The iPod 'iPod' could not be restored because of an unknown error (9)."
    - Extracting software
    - Verifying iPod restore with Apple
    - Preparing iPod for Restore (at this point the iPod turns off and back on for the next step, if I'm not mistaken)
    Once a progress bar shows up on my iPod touch screen, a few seconds later the screen turns white (freezes) and a notice from iTunes pops up with the response that I got an error and iPod could not be restored because of unknown error 9.
    I've tried this repeatedly so many times already, but I'm getting no luck on how this problem should be solved.
    Should I bring this to an Apple store for their help?

    Error 9
    This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

  • IPod Touch Update 1.1.1 - Unknown error occurred, Wiped my iPod

    I attempted the iPod Touch Update 1.1.1. The software downloaded completely, then the progress dialog appeared that it was preparing my iPod for the update. After a lengthy delay I received an error dialog saying that an unknown error had occurred(1602).
    After looking through my logs, the only relevant entry I can find is the following in iPodUpdater 3.log:
    2007-09-27 18:06:56.000 iTunes[432:d03]: device connected (isDFU = 0)
    2007-09-27 18:06:56.000 iTunes[432:d03]: error getting plugin interface for device: 0xe00002be
    2007-09-27 18:06:56.000 iTunes[432:d03]: an erorr occurred handling a connected device: 0x7d1
    2007-09-27 18:06:56.000 iTunes[432:d03]: _AMRecoveryModeDeviceFinalize: 0x14caa540
    This failure left that initial screen of the iPod plugin and iTunes symbol. I closed iTunes and relaunched it, as my iPod wasn't listed in the devices list. Upon relaunch, the iPod was detected but an error dialog appeared and said that my iPod was in a recovery state and had to be restored in order to work. So I restored my iPod and it updated it to 1.1.1.
    I have done nothing special to my iPod, I've only had it for a few days, but this update wiped my iPod clean. This is absolutely unacceptable for an update and I am very disappointed in Apple for this. They claim they are keeping the platform locked so things like this don't occur, but clearly it isn't helping.

    So far, I have never had a glitch like the one described here on my Ipods, but have read similar stories everywhere. This happens on Pocket PC PDAs as well.
    I've used my dubious firmware patching abilities to (as they say) brick a couple of things over the years, including a fairly nice Vaio. There was a time (after walking 10 miles through the snow, uphill both ways) that a failed firmware update meant that your computer was useful only as a doorstop if something went wrong.

  • The IPOD 'Ipod' could not be restored an unknown error occured (6)

    just Got my Ipod touch and when I tried to set it up, I got a message that said, 'Itunes has detected an IPOD in recovery mode, you must restore this IPOD before it can be used with Itunes'
    Then I followed up the instruction on my computer but then another subject came up (as what I wrote on the subject)
    I repeated 3-4 times but I got the same message !
    How to fix it ? thanks

    Well, this problem could be an easy fix. Just enter DFU Mode, and then you should be able to restore with no problems. A video on how to do this, is right [Here|http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=PbTI2quSqew]. There was a better one, but it has been removed. Be sure to have your timing pretty precise, or else it won't work.
    Hope this helps,
    Darie.
