  • Updated my Ipod got "iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode. You must restore this iPod before it can be used with iTunes." Error.

    I had some new albums I bogut from Itunes and wanted to put them on my Ipod Touch. Went to do that, ITunes said there was an update. I downloaded the update and then I couldn't see anything in my Ipod nor listen to anything. The screen of my Ipod shows a USB cable pointing to Itunes and when I plug it into ITunes again I get the message "iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode. You must restore this iPod before it can be used with iTunes." And the ONLY option it gives me is to restore my IPod to factory settings. I looked online for answers but all I see are people having problems with this because they bricked their phone, which I haven't ever done or even know how to do. Would appreciate some help, planned on spending my day off listening to my new albums.

    If you are in the USA you can redown
    If the music is not in your iTunes library (it is not in the backup that iTunes makes), you can redownload it if you are in the USA.
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Are you in the USA?

  • "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes."

    Went on a Vegas trip on Sept
    11th.  My iPad worked fine
    before getting on the plane. In the hotel about 48hrs later I opened my iPad it
    read the message: “iPad is disabled,
    connect to iTunes.”
    To my knowledge myself, nor anyone else has tried to access my device or
    entered the password incorrectly 3 or more times.
    I started by updating my iTunes account on my computer to the latest version.
    Then multiple times I attempted
    the “Use recovery mode”
    steps.
    e.g.
    1. Turn off your device and leave it off.
    2. Plug in your device's USB cable to a computer with iTunes.
    3. Hold down the Home button on your device as you connect the USB
    cable. Keep holding down the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes
    screen.
    I received the message on my computer saying “iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.”
    I click the “Restore iPad” button.
    During which time the progress bar on my computer’s iTunes
    screen was moving very slowly and other times seemed like it wasn’t moving at
    all. I would leave my two devices and attached by the cable and upon returning
    I would find that the process would have ended before it had completed.
    Initially I thought it was a connections issue because I was in remote
    locations with slow internet servers. Since being home I have re-attempted the
    process and have been able to fully complete the forced recovery but I will
    receive a message saying:
    “The iPad could not be restored. The disk you are attempting to use is full.
    Removing files and emptying the recycle bin will free up additional space.”
    What recycle bin is the message referring to? Obviously I CANNOT access any
    data on the iPad itself. Just for the **** of it, I did empty my computers
    recycle bin and re-attempted the forced recovery process but as I suspected it
    did nothing for the iPad and I still received the same message: “The iPad
    could not be restored. The disk you are attempting to …”
    Please help

  • HT4623 iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes

    I downloaded the update because why not. I then turned my iPad on and get the iTunes logo and a lightning cable picture. I plugged the ipad into my computer and opened iTunes.
    The I got:
    "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes"
    When I click restore it then says:
    "Are you sure you want to restore the iPad "iPad" to its factory settings? All your media and other data will be erased, and the newest version of the iPad software will be installed.
    iTunes will verify the resotre with Apple. After this process is complete, you will have the option to restore your contacts, calendars, messages and other settings."
    I don't want to lose my media. I was never told to make a back up, I was never told the update would be this difficult.
    Can I just revert back to how it was before?

    I thought okay, I'll just erase everything then. I get error 3004 when I try to restore.
    I've tried disabling my security software, updating iTunes, replacing my hosts file and using a third party software recovery tool. Nothing works. I never thought Apple would break my iPad with an update but they managed to.
    Any solutions?
    Thank you.

    If you are using XP, and you went through the procedure at the bottom of the previously linked document to change the iPod's assigned drive letter, and you also tried putting it into Disk Mode... 
    If you have not already, try shutting down your computer and disconnecting all USB devices, including hub.  Start up with only standard keyboard and mouse connected.  Just to be safe, put the iPod into Disk Mode again

    Run iTunes.  Connect iPod to a direct USB port on computer.  iTunes may prompt you about "recovery" and ask you to do a Restore.  Try to do a Restore again.

    please help me what do i do?

    You have to restore the iPod, no ifs, ands, or buts...
    After iOS is installed you will be asked if you what to set it up as a new iPod or if you want to restore from a backup.
    If you have a good backup you can restore that and you're good to go.
    If you don't have a good backup, then you end up with a "clean" iPod....

  • TS3474 iTunes has detected an iPod that appears to be corrupted. You may need to restore this iPod before it can be used with iTunes. You may also try disconnecting and reconnecting the iPod.

    What do I do about this message? I've restored it 3 times, but this message still comes up, and i cannot put music on it now.
    iTunes has detected an iPod that appears to be corrupted. You may need to restore this iPod before it can be used with iTunes. You may also try disconnecting and reconnecting the iPod.

    Sounds like your iPod is broken. Take it to Apple or someone else who repairs iPods and see if you can get it fixed, or get it replaced.

  • I just purchased new shuffle thinking my old one was done (battery, etc...it was old).  plugging in the new shuffle yielded the same loop message "ITunes detected device in recovery mode, you must restore this ipod before it can be used with Itunes".

    I'm having the same loop message appear when trying to sync my new Ipod Shuffle "Itunes has detected a device in recovery mode. You must restore this device before it can be used w/ Itunes".
    I've restored several times but it keeps looping back to the same message.  Turns out this message appeared with my last shuffle and I thought possibly the shuffle battery was depleted and it was time to get a new one.
    any suggestions?

    If you restore from backup.
    You should have made sure that everything was on your computer bef ore updating anyway.  Did you fail to do that?
    All pics taken with iphone should be imported to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera, most especially before any update/restore/etc.  Did you fail to do that?

  • HT4623 I updated to the latest version wirelessly and now I am being prompted to connect to iTunes When I do I am getting a message stating "Tunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes." WTH!!!

    Wont restoring the iPad wipe it? Yes I have things in the cloud but still... why on earth would Apple REQUIRE a complete restore. Im afraid to even do it now because I do not want to lose many many pictures of my little boy, apps, videos and al lthe work Ive done to personalize this ipad.
    Someone please let me know whats up!
    Thanks.

    During a normal install of iOS 7.0.6 this does not happen but something clearly went wrong in your installation.
    To fix this, connect to iTunes and restore to Factory. Hopefully your iPad will be working again and you can restore your iCloud backup during Setup.
