I tried to update iOS in my iPad Air which was already downloaded in my pad. But when I tried to install it, my pad went to recovery mode and asking for iTunes. What to do now? I am trying to download iOS via iTunes MAC. Will it be cleaver?

ios 8 update in ipad air, went to recovery mode. Can't open it now!!!

FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
1. Turn off iPad
2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
5. Release Home button.
ON COMPUTER
6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
7. Select "Restore iPad"...
Note:
1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
2. You must follow step 1 to step 4 VERY CLOSELY.
3. Repeat the process if necessary.

  • I have a 4S and just tried updating to the latest iOS version and my phone went into recovery mode and iTunes says I need to restore to factory settings. Anyone know how I can fix my phone without losing all my content?

    You would only be able to restore to a backup to iCloud or iTunes:

  • I tried to update to ios 7.0.1 and my iphone 5 went into recovery mode and i dont have iCloud

    I tried to update to ios 7.0.1 and my iphone 5 went into recovery mode and said i had to plug it in to itunes so i did and it restored to factory settings and i lost everything and i am pretty sure i dont have anything backed up on iCloud.. Is there anyway i can recover anything? I had over 1,000 pictures and 500 contacts and now i have nothing.

    Then you have no data from which to backup, I'm afraid.
    This would be a good time to review the User Guide and learn how to use your phone as recommended so data loss like this doesn't happen again.

    Same here. I tried to update my iPhone 5S and iPad 4 to 7.1 but iTunes wiped out them. This thing already happened for iOS 7.0.6 update. What happened to Apple? I am really curious whether Apple is aware of this problem.

  • I was in the process of jailbreaking and updating my ipod and when i was updating it,it went into recovery mode and now i cant get it out of recovery mode so what can i do??

    i was in the process of jailbreaking and updating my ipod and when i was updating it,it went into recovery mode and now i cant get it out of recovery mode so what can i do??

    Go elsewhere:
    Jailbreaking voids the Apple warranty and also means that you will not get any support from Apple, including from this Apple forum. Jailbreaking can't be discussed in this Apple forum.
    Unauthorized modification of iOS has been a major source of instability, disruption of services, and other issues

  • My Zen MicroPhoto goes straight to Recovery Mode and I dont know what to

    Hey, I need help figuring out why does my Zen MicroPhoto goes into recovery mode now by itself. I had difficulties with the same issue with a Zen Micro. My Zen MicroPhoto had issues in the past where it would spontaniously restart and rebuild the library. I would one second listen to music on the bus and sit down slowly, then the music cuts and the zen microphoto resets itself. Can I get some help here?! I really dont want to resort to sending it out for repairs unless its a last resort.

    Press and hold the Home and Power buttons on your iPhone until it shuts off.
    Connect it connect it to your computer with th USB cable.
    Press and hold down the Home button.
    Hold it it down until iTunes says your device is entering recovery mode.
    Now you should be able to Restore using iTunes.

    i have already changed my apple account to Aussie store but when i go to apps store, it's still showing Singapore Store and i can't even buy apps now, can help?

    You can try it lumaw, for the sake of testing to see if that new account is still stuck at Singapore but I've seen this a lot where two IDs cause a bevy of purchase/redownload/authentication issues.
    For account concerns like this I'd tell you to start here & talk with the iTunes Store support first:

    Be sure to switch you country to Australia if it isn't already.

    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.

  • Tried updating my iPad mini to iOS 8, it went into recovery mode and when I try to update then restore it on iTunes it says the download will last 300  HOURS and then it says something like "Connection failed"?

    I tried uppdating my ipad then it went into recovery mode. I thought "oh no problem, my phone has done this before". So, I hooked it up to iTunes and started to restore/update it, but when the update began, it said it would take 24 hours to download. Already abnormal. Then, the number kept rising higher and higher until it got to 300 HOURS. Then, once it reaches a certain 300, it says "connection failed. please check to see that you have a working connection or try again later" or something like that. So, my iPad is now stuck in recovery mode and I can't exactly talk to people now. What do I do?

    Hello aZaa4401
    Sorry to hear about your issue. I would start your troubleshooting with the article below to check to settings of your computer to make sure your connection is good to the iTunes Store.

  • I downloaded 5 to my itunes.  When I tried to update my iPad 2 it extracted the informaion and then when it tried to restore the iPad, I got an error message saying that my iPad malfunctioned, it went into recovery mode, and it would not restore.

    When I downloaded (on PC) the new 5 it crashed my iPad 2. I worked for two days to get it to stop the malfuction, went to the apple store for four hours, iPad crashed again, got a new one, new iPad crashed when I tried to restore my back up.  Down loaded iTunes to an employees computer, I was able to restore iPad to factory settings but my itunes account is on my office computer and now I am afraid to plug it into my computer.  I did delete the back up as maybe that is currupt and making it crash???  Any body know about this? 

    This is Linda again.  The new iPad actually as not restored on my employees computer. I thought it was working.  Message said the device is in recovery mode and can not be restored.  I have been at the Apple store for a total of 6 hours and on the phone with support for at least 4 hours.  And now the replacement has crashed???  Has this happened to any one else?

  • My iPhone 4s randomly went into recovery mode and I can't restore it with iTunes...what do I do?

    Last night my iPhone randomly went into recovery mode on me. Just before I went to sleep a bunch of static lines appeared across the screen. The screen went dark and a few seconds later the Apple logo appeared. A few seconds later is disappeared. A few seconds later it came back. So on and so forth. I thought I had turned it off and was going to deal with it in the morning, but when I woke up the iPhone still just had the Apple logo going on and off again.
    I've tried everything today. All the different button hold methods out there. I've tried to sync it to iTunes but the same **** keeps happening over and over again.
    A message pops up saying "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes." So I press OK. Then I press the "Restore iPhone..." button on iTunes. It asks me if I'm sure I want to "restore it to the factory settings" and I click "Restore and Update". It then says that its "extracting software", "preparing the iphone to restore", "waiting for the iphone", then "verifying iphone restore with Apple". As this is going on the "connect to iTunes" sign is shown on the screen of the iPhone. When the "waiting for the iPhone" part starts, my screen goes black, then the apple logo pops up. The "verifying iphone restore with apple" comes on the iTunes and the status bar appears underneath the Apple logo on my phone's screen. It sits there for a couple of seconds with no progress and then the screen goes black. Then iTunes has the same **** message saying "The iPhone 'iPhone' could not be resotred. An unknown error occured (9)."
    I've gone through this process countless times in the past few hours and have done everything that apple support has told me. The windows system is fully updated. So is the iTunes. I've restarted the computer. I have no idea whats wrong and its making my blood boil.
    A couple of notes about the phone:
    It's over a year old. It's never had water damage. It was nearing the max capacity of its internal storage. This has never happened before. I keep it in an Otter Box. I had very little problems with the phone. Lately a couple of apps like snapchat and the barstool sports app were taking a little longer to open up or would randomly close out and sometimes my camera would take a while to get going. But this problem is just ridiculous and completely rendered the phone useless.

    Hello Sean,
    It sounds like you are constantly needing to restore your phone because it keeps going into recovery mode. Usually putting a device into recovery mode and restoring it can help isolate an issue to your iPhone hardware if an issue persists afterwards. I would try manually putting it into recovery mode and restoring it 1 more time:
    If you can't update or restore your iOS device
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    If that does not resolve it the symptoms indicate to me that it is a hardware issue causing this to happen and would seek service for it:

  • My iPod went into recovery mode and I knew I had to restore it. However, when I plug it into the computer, nothing comes up on the iPod and my iTunes doesn't open. Except, when I plug my iPod into my wall charger, it lights up. What can I do to save it?

    For some reason, my iPod doesnt power up when I connect it to my computer, but it does if I plug it into my wall charger.
    I need to restore it as it went into recovery mode, what is it that doesn't allow it to connect to my computer and what can I do to fix it?

    You can re-download for free (As with the free music the bill just reads .00) .
    Try it with one and see for yourself.
    Oh yes, spare yourself future grief since this doesn't apply to music and video, get an external HD to back up iTunes and use it!
