- 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.

Put your ipod in recovery mode and then restore your software again.

I put my ipod touch in DFU mode, but when I plug it into my computer the restore your ipod alert does not come up in itunes. What can/should I do?

I have been on the Apple Support page for several hours now and cannot find my exact circumstance and other suggestions have yet to help me. I purchased a locked ipod touch and when I plug it into my laptop itunes says "Itunes could not connect to ipod because it is locked with a passcode". The guy I bought it from told me the password but I failed to write it down and remember it and he has since moved so I can't find him. I have tried putting it in DFU mode and I can get it there, but then Itunes does not show the pop-up that everyone has said will come up with the alert about an ipod trying to restore itself so I cannot get it to do so. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
AM

When in DFU mode and connected to the computer iTunes does not say anything but iTunes will see the iPod and you can restore the iPod via iTunes. When in recovery mode and you connect, iTunes will say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

Ipod Touch 3g Got hot and now won't turn on

I have an iPod touch 3g, 8gb's to be specific. I forgot the password to get into it, so I plugged it into my computer in order to reset the whole thing. I plugged it in and it connected, but after three seconds or so it disconnected. I tried plugging it in again, but the computer didn't notice anything plugged in.
I looked on the internet for some advice and I learned that I could hold the power button and the power button at the same time for somewhere between 5 and 10 seconds to restart it. I did that. The iPod turned off, but it got really hot and now won't power on plugged in or not.
What caused this? It's written all over this website that doing that would just reset the iPod, not kill it! Did it toast the motherboard?

The cable should not cause a problem unless it was really damaged and had power going to the wrong contacts.

I updated my ipod touch to ios 5 and now it wont restore and i can't get anything back...need help please!

I updated to IOS 5 tonight on my ipod touch 4th gen and now it won't restore. I can't get it to restore from a backup either. It either says "iTunes could not restore the iPod "____" because the backup session failed or i get error -50. It appears all of my songs and apps are in iTunes, but I guess I don't know where to go from here to get things back to how I had them before. Is there a way to access an early backup to try that? or am I going down the wrong path? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

don't ask me why this worked, but it did for me last night. In iTunes, where your device shows up on the left side, I double clicked on it. It then allows you to change the name like you can for changing file/folder names. I changed 1 letter on the name of the ipod and hit enter. I then right clicked on the new ipod name and chose restore from backup. My choices for backup was the original name of the ipod only and not the name i had just changed it to. I told it to go ahead and backup from the old name figuring I would get the same results, but not the case. It restored it with all app, music and pictures with one exception...all of the settings, email setup and information within the apps was lost. Atleast that an easier fix than starting all over. Hope this will work for you guys too with the same issue.

Ipod nano wasnt disconnected properly and now it wont turn on... :{

The title basically says it all. The reason why i didnt disconnect it properly was because it took longer than usual to disconnect and then my computer froze up on me. So i turned it off, and when i finally took my ipod out, it wouldnt turn on...
the last time i did that the only thing that happened was that all my music disappeared...sometimes when i plug in my ipod to a computer it says that it cant be disconnected because of an unknown error...

YAY!!!!
lol.
after not working for about 2 1/2 days it suddenly started working again...
anyways if i get one more problem i swear im shipping it to apple

IOS 5 update forced ipod touch into recovery mode which I can't get it out of! Help please!

Hi, I recently updated my ipod touch 3rd gen to ios5 (as prompted by itunes - assumed a standard software update). Immediately afterwards, my ipod went into recovery mode, and initially itunes recognised this and tried to restore it unsuccessfully. Not any more! Now it is either off, or displays the 'connect to itunes' logo when I connect it to the computer via USB lead.
I've tried uninstalling and re-installing itunes but this hasn't helped it recognise the ipod.
I don't think I've managed to go 3 months without having to do something like reinstall the drivers etc on this ipod, don't know why i expected this update to be any different!
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance!

Try disabling all security software and firewalls, then try again.
Or try from a different computer.
This error is a pain in the butt and a new issue, too. I'm sorry.

I have looked at multiple websites; they all have the same instructions for putting your IPhone into recovery mode using ITunes.
My computer was not downloading ITunes before, but I recently made it work. I turned my phone off, held the home button, plugged in the phone to the computer with ITunes already up. The little USB cord and ITunes logo showed up. The instructions said that a popup would say that ITunes had 'detected and IPhone in recovery mode', and from there I would be able to reset my phone. However, the popup never happens. I have tried this several times, and it's the same: I see the USB cable and ITunes logo on my phone screen, and in the corner of ITunes, a picture comes up of a phone with a little 'X' next to it. I clicked on the phone, on the X, but nothing works. The popup just never shows. I am unable to reset my IPhone because of it. I have not found any other way for me to reset my phone, since I didn't activate Find My Phone or ICloud.
There is no icloud on an iphone 3, because you need IOS 5.0 or higher, the highest IOS is 4.2.1
