  • I was in the middle of updating my iPhone 4 and a screen came up that had a picture of a cord with an arrow pointing to an iTunes icon. Does anyone know how to fix my phone?

    When I connect to iTunes it says "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes". Any ideas?

    You may need to try this More than Once...
    Be sure to Follow ALL the Steps...
    But... if the Device has been Modified... this will Not necessarily work.

  • In the middle of updating my iphone 4, a icon popped up saying that itunes had detected an iphone in recovery mode and i needed to restore it. my iphone screen is a picture of a usb cord with an arrow pointing to an itunes symbol. what do i do?

    i started to update my iphone 4, and in the middle of the update, an icon popped up saying that "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. you must restore this iPhone before it can be sued with iTunes."
    I really cannot lose the data on my phone. i foolishly did not back up everything ecause there was a previous problem i had with icloud and i needed to delete all of my icloud accounts accept for my contacts.
    WHat would i lose if i restored it? and do i need to restore it?
    is there another way? if there is, i definetely do not need the update. someone please help me.

    First, in iTunes, launch Preferences and go to the Devices tab. Check the date and time of the last backup. If it is recent you can restore it. However, if you mean you have the photos back in your Camera Roll then the backup was already restored. To get your music and apps back it should just be necessary to click "Sync".

  • HT201210 My IPAD will not do anything. It just has a picture of a usb with an arrow pointing to an itunes logo. How do I fix this?

    Why will my ipad not update?

    You need to restore the iPad now. When you restore the iPad, the newest iOS should download and install to the device.

    Do you have backups of all the data on the startup drive? If not, do nothing else until you've backed up that data, if you still can.

  • Hi, I bought an iPod 2 and I jailbreaked it before. I tried to download the iOS 5.0.1 from the Settings icon on my iPad 2 and then my iPad wouldn't turn on anymore and it kept on showing a screen with an arrow pointing to an iTunes symbol.

    Hi, I bought an iPod 2 and I jailbreaked it before. I tried to download the iOS 5.0.1 from the Settings icon on my iPad 2 but then my iPad wouldn't turn on anymore and it kept on showing a screen with an arrow pointing to an iTunes symbol. I later learned that this was the recovery screen so I tried to put it out of the recovery mode by pressing the home button and power button simultaneously, but the screen kept on returning back to the recovery screen. I could not restore the iPad 2 on iTunes either, so I downloaded Tiny Umbrella 5.10.01 and tried to save the shsh. However, under the recovering devices section on the left side, my iPad did not appear and I only got a device titled ?18092..... I tried to save the shsh of this ?18902... anyways but this did not work. So, I clicked on the device and pressed the exit recovery but then my iPad2 screen went black with a white apple logo in the middle. This logo keeps on dimming and disappearing and even when I plug my iPad 2 to the computer, neither my iTunes nor the Tiny Umbrella notice it. I need urgent help!

    At this point only a restore will fix your issue.

    If you have the latest version of iTunes you should not have to download the ipsw file separately as jalp suggests. iTunes will download it automatically.
    This error (9) most often means that your antivirus or firewall (or router) is blocking access to Apple's servers. In rare instances it can also mean that the phone was hacked (or "jailbroken") to unlock it. If this is the case you must do a DFU restore, not Recovery Mode, as follows:
    Reboot your computer
    Disable your antivirus and firewall. If you has Kaspersky you may actually have to uninstall it, as it can never be turned completely off.
    Connect the USB cable to a USB port directly on your computer, not to a hub. DO NOT connect the other end to the phone
    Disconnect all USB devices except for mouse, keyboard and iPhone cable.
    Launch iTunes
    On the phone hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons at the same time for EXACTLY 10 seconds, then release the SLEEP button but continue holding the HOME button. The screen should be black. If it has an Apple logo this means you held both buttons too long. Release the HOME button and do it again.
    While holding the HOME button connect the free end of the cable to the phone.
    After a short while iTunes should recognize a phone in "recovery mode" (iTunes doesn't know the difference between DFU and Recovery modes, but the phone does)
    Release the HOME button and don't touch the phone or the computer until the process completes or you get an error message. Ignore any displays on the phone.
    If the error recurs the phone was probably messed up when it was hacked. This is not a hardware problem, or if it is, it isn't one you can fix.
    You can try repeating these steps with a different computer and a different cable. If that fails also the phone is probably not repairable.

  • HT1320 Ipod 4th gen was accidentally disconnected from laptop during update process. Now permanent screen pic is of power cord w/ an arrow pointing up to itunes. Holding the ctr & power buttons together has no effect for reset.

    Ipod touch 4th gen was accidentally disconnected from laptop during update process. Now permanent screen pic is of the power cord w/ an arrow pointing up to itunes symbol. Holding the ctr & power buttons together for 6-10 sec causes apple pic to briefly appear and power cord/itunes pic reappears. Powering off and on has same effect. Attempting to reset.

    It sounds like the iPod touch is in Recovery Mode, Try to restore it from iTunes again.
    If you run into an error when restoring the iPhone again, take a look at this Apple doc -> iOS: Resolving update and restore alert messages

    I bought a new ipad2 yesterday and charged the battery and then expected to get going with it but the screen only displays an image of a ubs connection with an arrow pointing to a itunes symbol.  I downloaded itunes on a PC and plugged in the ipad to it but nothing changed on the PC or ipad.  very frustrating.  anyone else experience this or have know how or ideas to help me?

    Here is my standard reply, some of which may have no relevance to your situation.  Start with trying different USB ports, even a numbe of times.
    1. Make sure that your device is not hidden (left hand pane). If it just reads device then toggle between SHOW and HIDE.
    2. Try all the other ports on your computer, even a number of times.
    3. Make sure your lead /connections are not faulty.
    4. If you have another computer try plugging your device into it without taking any action, give it a moment, remove it and try it back in your other computer again.
    5. Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes installed.
    6. If using Widows, make sure all Windows Updates are installed.
    7. Failing all that, see here - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538 for Windows and http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591 for Macs
    8. And failing all that put the device into Recovery mode. See here and note the paragraph 'If you restore from a different computer.... ' down near the bottom of the page -

  • Bought a used Ipod touch 3rd gen for my child and when charged I get a screen with a picture of a computer charging cord with an arrow pointing to a music symbol.  What do I do to get it to work?

    I've plugged it into the computer and nothing happens...nothing changes....the screen still has a pic of the computer charging cord with an arrow pointing to a music symbol at the top of the screen.  I can't seem to get it to do anything.

    For how to restore see:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
