Your options depend on which MacBook you have and the version of OS X installed.

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store -

While fully restoring my Iphone it is stuck at the "connect to Itunes" screen and in Itunes itself it only shows a blank screen.
I already tried different computers and tried a DFU firmware restore. My iphone is not jailbroken or some.
It does just have a new screen due the fact it was broken.
Sometimes Itunes says my iphone is damaged, sometimes it only shows a blank screen.
But whatever I do, I cant go around the "connect to Itunes" screen.
Anyone any suggestions? please help.Did you find a solution?
My touch is doing the same thing. -

While trying to update my iPhone 4 to iOs6 it froze on the connect to itunes screen and i needed to do a restore. But it restored my phone to january 2011 even though i just backed my phone to my laptop up 2 weeks ago. I still have all my contacts but i lost a lot of apps and text messages. Is there any way to make it restore to my most recent back up?
I tried powering down and re-starting the iPhone (as suggested at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275). This seems to have cleared the "...not connected to the Internet" problem, and iOS 6.1 is now in the process of downloading.
Thanks very much for your feedback. -
Stuck on connect to itunes screen and not recognised in windows
help please
ipod 4 is stuck on connect to itunes screen and itunes or windows will not recognise that its connected. My iphone connects straight away so its not the pc.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.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I see the "Connect to iTunes" screen and the device appears in iTunes. Every time I connect to iTunes, iTunes says my device is in recovery mode and has to be recovered so I do so. The same recovery message shows in iTunes after iTunes is complete. I have a iPod touch 64gb. I have no idea what OS is on it now that iTunes has tried to recover it and erased all info.

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. .

I keep getting the "connect to itunes" screen and have to connect to itunes and do a restore on it. It will not pick up my ipad so I either have to do a restore or restore to new and it will work fine for a day or so except for dropping the wifi connection. What can be causing this? I have had this pad since January of this year and have not had any problems until recently.
If you have to keep restoring your iPad with iTunes repeatedly and there is no change after restoring as a new iPad or not from the iPad's backup, your iPad has a major problem - likely a hardware problem. The iPad includes a one year warranty. You can call AppleCare or make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby.

I have an iPod Touch 8GB 2nd gen and it's only showing connect to iTunes screen and not letting me past that as I have a password - Already reset and it just loops back to the same screen with the same problem.
Any idea what I can do to fix this?you can connect the iPod to iTunes in recovery mode:
Hold down the Home button and the Power button simutaneously, until the screen goes black and the device turns off.
Now let go of the Power button, but continue to hold the Home button. Your iPod Touch/iPhone should have turned off and the screen should not be on.
After around ~10-20 seconds, you will hear a noise (beep/ding) from your CPU as if it had just recognized a new hardware device
and restore it to default settings, in order to remove your password (or just remove your password directly from the iPod touch, in order to sync with iTunes) -
I tried to restore my Apple TV. It froze on a connect to iTunes screen and showed an image of a USB cord. Now it is frozen there. Any ideas?
Did you try restore from teh AppleTV menu connecetd to TV.
If so sounds as though something went wrong.
Hook up to a computer using a micro USB cable alone, run iTunes and select the AppleTV to restore:
