HT4097 I have tried everything, my ipad is still on connect to itunes, help

My ipad has been stuck on connect to itunes for about 2 weeks now, i have tried everything. help me please

-power off the device first then while the device is still off hold the home key while connecting it to the computer and keep holding the button so that iTunes detects the device in recovery mode, iTunes should have a popup that tells you to restore

  • Just got a new IPAD3, straight out of the box, but I cant charge it, I have tried with the power plug and cable out of the box but no joy, i have tried resetting the iPad but still no joy, have tried different plug sockets, different plugs/cables, help

    Just got a new IPAD3, straight out of the box, but I cant charge it, I have tried with the power plug and cable out of the box that came with it but no joy, i have tried resetting the iPad but still no joy, have tried different mains plug sockets around the house with no joy, I have tried different USB mains plugs but again no joy, I tried using my new iPad cable into the USB port of my MacBook Pro laptop but still no joy, then, I tried using my old iPod classic cable into my MacBook Pro and that worked, so I have a way of charging my new iPad3 but its not practical as i have to take my MacBook Pro everywhere if I want to charge it which kind of defeats the object of having an iPad, has anybody experienced anything similar and how was it fixed? can anybody help me please...

    Grumpy Gator,
    Please note it did say at the store's discretion, but people have actually been able to return it to the on-line store. (I only saw a couple who tried.)
    And given the outcry, I would think Apple might have other Apple stores join in. Just in case, though, if you can, you might bring it in today.
    If it's an ARS, my guess is they can stick to their 14 day return. Apple cannot force them to do it. SO if it's not bought directly from Apple, and it's past the 14 day deal, I'd bring it in to the store today if you have one. When I gave people the cnet.com site, I gave it so people could read it and know only Apple had made the decision for Apple. And I suggested to some that an Apple reseller would probably stick with their own return policy.
    Because Arnie had just bought his, he should be able to return it to Apple or an ARS because an ARS has to have some kind of full refund or at least return for credit within 7 or 14 days of purchase.
    Hope this helps.

  • HT201210 I have tried everything and my iphone still wont restore.  Does anyone have any resolutions?

    I have tried everything and my iphoe still eon't restore.  Does anyone have any top tips?

    Put iPhone into Recovery Mode and Restore with iTunes on computer. Open iTunes on computer, connect iPhone to computer with USB Cable, hold both home and power buttons for about 20 seconds until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode. Click Restore button of iTunes. If any Error messages are given write them down so you can look up cause and solution. If still problem, and if you have Warranty or AppleCare make Genius reservation and take to Apple for resolution.

    Hello Kirrajo
    Have you tried the transferring purchases in the File drop down menu? Also you can download your purchase by checking the second article to see your purchases within your library or by going to the iTunes Store and click the Purchases link.

    I am unable to access my iTunes store through my iTunes account. Every time I have tried it gives me an error ' cannot, connect to iTunes'

    check to see if you are online
    check to see if you can access secured websites (https) on your computer / device
    if this is on a computer with windows configuring your antivirus / firewall to not block itunes some times will help, also resetting your tcp/ip might fix it (open command prompt as an administrator, type: "netsh reset winsock" hit enter, restart computer

    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 iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - 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.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar                                     
    or
    Maybe:
    Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
    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. .
    Next try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    Then try restoring on another computer.
    Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • HT1222 Ever since I downloaded 6.1.3 to my Iphone 5, I cannot pair my phone via bluetooth with my Camry.  I have tried everything.  What's up???? Help!

    SInce I downloaded 6.1.3 to my Iphone 5, I cannot pair my Iphone 5 via bluetooth. I've tried everything: reset network; reset Iphone etc....HELP!!!!! There must be an issue with 6.1.3.
    msgrwmb

    So you cleared all pairings from your head unit and retstarted the car, you Reset the network settings on the car, then you tried to pair them? Does either one see the other after you do this?
    Haven't seen many Camry BT complaints, you might check on their forum.
    If you are convince it is your update then go here: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html and provide as much detail as possible.

  • HT4097 i have tried to restore ipad and continously it gives an error code of 1604. i have also set ipad in recovery mode multiple times and everytime the restore shows an error code of 1604. How do I resolve this?

    I was trying to update the iOS to version 6. The iPad was backed up and when trying to update the iOS 6 it errored with -1 error code. I set the iPad in recovery mode and tried to Restore it. It then gave an error code of 1604. I have tried the steps mentioned in the troubleshooting article for 1604 error and so far no luck restoring my iPad. Please help.

    Error 1604
    This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
    If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
    Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode, put it into Recovery Mode.
    Restore and wait for the error.
    When prompted, click OK.
    Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
    The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
    Try to restore again.
    If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.

  • I connect my Iphone 5 to my laptop and it will connect to my computer but will not show up on my itunes why is this? i have tried everything that other people are saying but nothing is helping.

    HI so i connect my phone to my computer and everything works but it wont connect to itunes for some reason but did just a few weeks ago. I did something where i lost all my photoes and it reset my phone to waht it once was so i wonder if that was the cause but i dont know. help would be very much apprecieated this college student is getting super frustrated.

    Since no one here can possibly know what you specifically mean by "tried everything that other people are saying", no one can determine what you did wrong.  Also, you didn't say what computer OS you use.
    Read and follow ALL recomendations in the following aritcle appropriat for your computer:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
