Installing ipad IOS 8?? now stuck in "verifying update" and cant even shut down. Help?

In trying to install IOS 8?? (current update)  on ipad and now stuck on "verifying update". Cannot even shut the thing down. Help??

You need to use Recovery Mode:
1. Turn off your device
2. Press the Home button and while holding it, connect your device to the computer
3. Keep the Home button pressed until you see the "Connect to iTunes screen"
4. Release the Home button and open iTunes on your computer
5. You will see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode". Use iTunes to recover your device.
You may need to repeat these steps several times.
Hope this helps!

  • IOS 5.1: Stuck at "Verifying Updated iPhone Software"

    Help would be greatly appreciated:
    I'm 'upgrading' to iOS 5.1, and the download seems to have gone fine. But iTunes has been stuck on "Verifying Updated iPhone Software" for about 4 hours. How do I fix this?
    iTunes 10.6.0.40
    iPhone 4
    Windows Vista (yeah, I know...)

    HEY APPLE
    A reply to this sure would be appreciated!
    I have the exact same issue on my iPhone 4S and I am now restoring, hopefully successfully and without losing everything.  I sure hope iCloud actually works for all of my apps!!!

  • IPad2 is stuck in FT login and will not shut down

    My iPad2 is stuck on the FT login prompt and will not allow me to cancel out.  As of now, I cannot shut down or do anything else with the iPad.  Any ideas of what I can try?

    Try a reset by pressing and holding both the lock and home buttons together until the apple logo appears.

  • 2011 Macbook Pro Stuck on White Screen and Won't Shut Down

    Greetings,
    I just received a 15 inch Macbook Pro with a 2.2 i7 processor earlier today. On my previous computer, a 2009 MB P with a Core2Duo, I've had a shutdown issue on it for the past week or so: when I click the power button, and confirm the shutdown, the computer would start shutting down as normal, however once it reached the white screen with the spinning loading symbol at the bottom, it just got stuck on that. As I've transfered my old data to my brand new computer, I'm still having the same issue with it. I was wondering if this was due to a worm, or some software incompliancy? If anyone could shed any light, I'd be greatful.
    Thanks.

    That's all. Everything else is either from Apple, Adobe, or is downloaded from the app store.
    Were you using any of them when the issue occurred (or just prior to it)?
    Have you looked for updates on all of them?
    If you want to do some digging, open Console and look at the logs at, and just prior to, the time of the issue.

  • LENOVO G50-30 stuck at lenovo logo and cant even enter bios

    Hello
    I yust got my lenovo G50-30 and wanted to install win 7 on it. after the first BsoD I went to bios and changed the AHCI to legacy mode. Got the same BsoD.  After that I changed the Os mode from win 8 to win 7 ... loaded the factory default settings and putted from AHCI to legacy mode again.
    After that the laptop turns on, but it stucks at lenovo logo. I cant access the bios anymore to make any other changes. If I insert a win7 instalation disc, it start to spin but with no sucess. also cant acess the boot options anymore.
    Any help greatly apreciated

    I suggest removing battery and AC, holding the power button for more than 15 seconds to reset the BIOS back to default settings then see if the issue remains.
    Make sure to post the results.
    Good luck.

    I have exactly the same problem.  iPhone 4S, never been jailbroken.  Not behind a firewall and it happens whether I am on my home compute (iTunes) or directly thru Settings_Update.
    Looks like loads of people are having the same problem - and as far as I can see, Apple's sole reply is jailbreak or behind firewall/ security settings/anti-virus.  None of those apply here!

  • How can I recover an old/disused iCloud account. I was having some issues with my apple id so I restored my iPad, I am now stuck on the activation screen as I no longer use the iCloud account i used to set up the iPad and can't remember the address or pas

    How can I recover an old/disused iCloud account. I was having some issues with my apple id so I restored my iPad, I am now stuck on the activation screen as I no longer use the iCloud account i used to set up the iPad and can't remember the address or pas

    I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
    The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account.  I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there.  On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back.  Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email.  The device is currently useless.
    The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
    Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?

  • Hi, my iphone 5 encountered an unknown error while updating to iOS 7 via itunes and is now stuck in recovery mode and prompts me to restore the phone when I connect it to itunes but then I would lose all my data. Any suggestions please?

    Hi, my iphone 5 encountered an unknown error while updating to iOS 7 via itunes and is now stuck in recovery mode and prompts me to restore the phone when I connect it to itunes but then I would lose all my data. I DO NOT have any back ups on itunes. Is there anyway to get out of recovery mode without restoring or recover data after a restore?
    Or any other suggestions please? Thanks

    As pdroth said, you should have gotten a backup made when you started the update of iOS. If you cannot find a backup, and the phone is in recovery mode, there are no futher suggestions to make. To get the phone working again you have to restore. You cannot force a backup at this time since it is already in recovery mode. It will not allow anything else but a restore at this point.

  • My iPad 2 is stuck in verify update after updating to 8.1.3. Tried pushing buttons and holding. No luck

    My iPad 2 is stuck in verify update after updating to 8.1.3. Tried pushing buttons and holding. No luck

    How many times did you try the reset? Sometimes, it can take more than one reset, especially with these kinds of issues. Try multiple times. Note that you need to hold both buttons until the Apple logo appears on the screen. This can sometimes take 15-30 seconds.
    Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
    1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
    2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
    3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

  • ITunes had to shut down half way through iPad iOS download now its stopped working

    My iPad now has a black screen with white apple logo - it won't respond to anything and iTunes doesn't find it.  This is ever since halfway through updating its iOS to 7.0.2, I tunes had a problem and had to shut down.  Can anyone help please please

    Hey Tom Taylor2,
    Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues updating your iPad to iOS 7. If you have not already done so, you may want to restart or reset the iPad:
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, you'll want to restore your iPad with iTunes in recovery mode:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore

    Thanks,

  • My  ipad i have been restore it yesterday my computer shut down in the middel now my ipad2 stuck in recovery mode and cant be detect by itunes ?

    my  ipad i have been restore it yesterday my computer shut down in the middel now my ipad2 stuck in recovery mode and cant be detect by itunes and it is jaikbroken ?

    Try these steps. If it doesn't work the first time, try a second time.
    Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off. (If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.)
    While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on. (Note: If you see the screen that shows you are out of battery, let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then start with step 2 again.)
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button
    If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert: "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode..."
    Use iTunes to restore the device.
    If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    Hope this helps!

  • My iPhone 5 is stuck on "verifying update" lock screen

    I was updating my iPhone to iOS 8.1.1, but it failed verification and now my phone is stuck on "verifying updates" on the lock screen. I can't even shut it off completely because it will not let me slide the power off button.
    I even connected into my macbook air, but nothing happened.
    Any help is appreciated to fix this issue.
    Thank You!

    Hello Bearcat_Pooja,
    If the update process has not completed, it may help to put your iPhone into recovery mode in order to get it updated.
    If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
