I tried updating my 16gb, iPad 3 to iOS 7.0.2., stuck on "Plug into iTunes Screen"

Last night I tried to update my Ipad 3 to iOS 7.0.2. It took a while to download the file, and once it began to install, after about 99% of the install was done, it closed out and gave me an "Unknown error", stating the download couldn't be finished.
Now the iPad is stuck on the iTunes logo, with the words "iTunes" and a USB cable under it. I tried troubleshooting this on my own, and all I could find was a discussion on this website from ten days ago. The troubleshoot is here: (https://discussions.apple.com/message/23026733#23026733).
The OP has the same exact problem as me, and the guy who responded said to do a hard reset and slide to power down. OP has the same problem, when I hard reset it shows the Apple logo, and then goes straight back to the Connect to iTunes screen. I'd love to just delete all of the data on it to restart from scratch (only if I really need to), but I can't even get past step 2. My iTunes wont recognize the iPad, but when I plug it into my computer I hear a sound, meaning it recognizes it as being plugged in. It does the same noise for my Samsung GS3, or even just USB Flash Drives.
I have no idea what to do, I've been trying everything but I'm completely lost.
And yes, I have iTunes 11.1.

I am in the same predicament...any resolve?  Other than possibly taking it into the shop?

  • Iphone 3GS 32gb stuck on plug into itunes screen after trying to update OS

    I installed itunes on my new computer.  When I plugged in my iphone to sync, itunes identified my phone and offered an OS update.  I followed the steps to update and began the process, shortly after there was an error message and now I my phone is paralyzed with the "plug into itunes image".  I tried re-plugging the phone into itunes but it will no longer show up.  Any ideas?

    I had the same problem after updating...I thought that was my phone's problem, so I restored it...unfortunately, i had forgotton my password...I need that password to restore my iphone back up.
    Any idea how to recover this password.... Thanks much

  • Iphone 3gs stuck on plug into itunes screen after trying to restore get error 1015

    i have a iphone 3gs 8gb that was jb and unlocked by the previous now the phone froze and its stuck and i tried the hard reset and now its stuck on the connect to itunes screen how can i fix it?

    Manny,
    You will need to get help for your problem on another forum.  By jailbreaking your phone, you've voided your warranty and eliminated the ability to get help from Apple or from any of Apple's forums, including this one.
    Terms of Use of this forum prohibit the discussion of jailbroken phones.  You will need to search elsewhere for assistance; know that there is a strong liklihood that you will never get your phone working again.  Hope the jb was worth it.
    Good luck.

  • IPad 2 went to update ios8 now stuck in plug into itunes screen I have no computer.

    how do I fix this without a computer.

    I absolutely agree on that point - it's part of the reason I keep my iPad/iPhone kind of filled up - then they can't automatically download iOS updates on me
    Hopefully the folks at the store are able to get you fixed up fairly quickly.

  • Tried to upgrade my iPhone 4 to 5.1 and now it is  stuck in "plug into itunes mode" after trying to update to iOs 5.1 and receiving error (1).

    Tried to upgrade my iPhone 4 to 5.1 and now it is  stuck in "plug into itunes mode" but will not recover when I plug it in. It is coming up as "unkown error (1)". Is there anything I can do?
    Also, is there any way to recover pictures I have not yet backed up? They should be on iTunes, but do not show up when I plug the phone in or otherwise.
    Is there any hope in saving this phone or is my best bet contacting Verizon or Apple to overnight me a new one?

    From iPhoneWiki:
    Try changing the USB port (the back one of chassis is better) and restart computer.
    The installed version of iTunes may also be too old. Update iTunes.
    Also put your iPhone in DFU mode when doing the above and restore. It's a software error.

  • IPad mini stuck on "plug in itunes" screen after ios7 update

    I planned on updating to ios7 through wifi, but now it's asking me to plug into itunes (black screen with itunes icon and plug pointing towards it).
    I can't plug into itunes because I'm on an laptop with 10.5.8 on it (so itunes hasn't been updated in a while). 
    So...what can I do here to get past this screen?  I didn't think I would have to plug it in to itunes if downloading through wifi.
    My iphone 4s updated without any issues through wifi.  Any help here (besided telling me to upgrade my laptop/itunes for the moment) would be
    very much appreciated.
    Thanks

    The iPad has gone into recovery mode, so you will need to connect it to a computer's iTunes (iTunes 11.1), and on a Mac you will need OS X 10.6.8+ - there isn't another way.

  • HT4528 Tried updating my software. Now phone stuck with plug into itunes icon. Anyway to restore without itunes?

    Tried updating my software. Now the screen is stuck on plug into iTunes icon. I don't have a computer I can use. Is there anyway to get around this and fix phone?

    No chance.
    If the "plug into iTunes"-Logo appears, you have to do so.
    Sorry.

    A Restore first downloads a new copy of iOS to your computer. On a slow Internet connection this can take a long time. How fast is your connection? How long would you expect it to take to download 900 MB?
    That's assuming nothing is interfering with the download. Some firewalls and antivirus programs will block the download or slow it down. So you should temporarily disable your security software. Security software can also block the update after the iOS download is complete.

  • HT4528 I updated my iphone but it is requiring me to plug in to itunes, I can not get in to it bc my laptop is broken, is there anyway around it? Can I get out of the update? It is stuck on the "Plug into iTunes screen"

    I updated my iphone but it is requiring me to plug in to itunes, I can not get in to it bc my laptop is broken, is there anyway around it? Can I get out of the update? It is stuck on the "Plug into iTunes screen"

    If you are in a screen to plug into iTunes, then the device is in recovery mode. Your only option is to connect to the computer to restore the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • IPhone 4: My IPhone keeps in the "plug-into-iTunes-screen" after trying to update to iOS 5.0. The phone is not showing up as a device in iTunes anymore.

    My IPhone doesn't turn on and keeps in the "plug-into-Tunes-screen" after update to new IOs 5.0 yesterday. I also tried to restore it, but it still keeps in the plugin mode. In ITunes the IPhone doesn't show up as a device anymore, but Windows 7 detects it as a camera. I started the problem diagnose via ITunes and it says "iPhone can't be found".I'm using the new version of iTunes.
    Can anyone help me?

    I have the exact same problem and have just logged on here to see if anyone can help also?  My iphone is up and working but itunes won't recognise it as a device... just updated itunes aswell.
    Any help would be hugely appreciated!!

  • Phone frozen on plug into itunes screen after trying to update

I have tried to turn off my phone and back on, unplug it and plug it back in and nothing. what do I do?

  • Had an iPhone 4 updating the OS when it was interrupted by the computer going to sleep and now is frozen on "plug into iTunes" screen.  Home/Power button combo will not reset, iTunes does not acknowledge the phone is plugged in.

    I recently upgraded to the 5s, so I delegated my old iPhone 4 to a music player/daughter checking instagram and email.  Three days ago I plugged the iPhone 4 into iTunes to update it, the OS began updating.  During the update my computer went into sleep mode, interrupting the OS update.  Now the phone will not do anything but show the screen with the graphic indicating to plug the phone into iTunes.  I've tried a hard reset (holding down power button/home button), plugging the phone into iTunes before/during holding down the home button, holding down the buttons for various lengths of time in various permutations according to info I've found online, etc, and nothing happens beyond a brief showing of the Apple logo and then back to the same screen.  iTunes will make a connection noise when the phone is plugged in but otherwise makes no indication that a device is plugged in (no iPhone button in the tool bar, etc.).  Any ideas or do I need to take it to an actual Apple store and hope they don't tell me it is completely bricked?

    Yep, done all that.  Repeatly.  Don't get any sort of recovery mode message or the phone showing up on iTunes at all.  iTunes is most current version, all diagnostics show everything fine, and it works fine with my current phone.  Just....nothing.

  • I have an iphone 4 and i just dI'd the newest update the ios7.02 i believe or whatever the newest one is, well it says connect to itunes but when i plug my phone into itunes it does nothing and my phone will not go off the "plug into itunes" screen

    Thanks.  I have followed all the instructions as recommended and nothing has worked so it looks like the restore/update may have been interrupted - would loss of internet connection do this?
    Yes it would, possibly even brick it.
    Have successfully connected my ipod nano with iTunes so looks like the device driver is working.
    Can I use my ipod nano USB connector to check?
    It is not much help to you, since the device that you need still not recognized.
    Anyway looks like I may have to swallow the loss of data.  Have set-up a call for tomorrow with Apple support so will wait until after this before doing the factory restore!
    Good luck, but if you expect miracle from that call good luck again.

  • ITunes won't recognize my iPod touch after a failed update--my iPod is stuck on the "plug into itunes" screen

    Yesterday, I had bought myself an ipod touch and it was working just fine until today when I went along with an itunes prompt to update my ipod.  It failed to update and now won't recognize it, I checked to see if it was recognized by my computer--and it is, but a thing pops up that says "access denied" whenever I try to click on it.  The screen on my ipod is stuck wanting me to connect to itunes.
