Ipad blocked in recovery mode
Mu Ipad 3 is freezed in recovery mode. I can't pass it in DFU mode or get out recovery mode. I tryed TinyUmbrella ...
Do you have an idea ?
Thanks.

I think you are reading the version of OSX, iTunes requires at least OSX 10.6.8 to install, it should install.
The latest version for both Windows and Mac versions are 11.1. My Windows 7 64bit is 11.1.0.126 and my Windows XP 32bit is 11.1.0.126.
The iTunes page at Apple shows the OSX version of iTunes is also 11.1.
I recomend to download and install the latest version of iTunes again, so you can try recovering your iPad.

Windows and iTunes won't recognize my iPad outside of recovery mode
Okay, so there's a lot.
1) Unless I put the iPad into recovery mod, plugging in my iPad to my laptop gets no alert sound whatsoever, meaning it's not being recognized. The only thing that I DO get, is the iPad charging. However, there's more! My iPad sometimes appears like it's not even being plugged in, no charging, no recognition. But it's not my cable, I tried my brother's newer cable and the same thing happened. I plugged my cable into my wall charger and into a socket -- works perfectly.
2) Sometimes, the iPad would get detected by Windows and install drivers, but iTunes still wouldn't pick it up or start automatically. I checked into the device manager and Devices and Printers, it was listed there and the status said it was working fine. I tried updating the drivers, it said the drivers were the best ones available. This is no longer happening however, due to further developments listed lower.
3) I tried everything here: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows and nothing works there. That includes uninstalling all iTunes/Apple related software in the specified order somewhere in the help sections, restarting the laptop, and then installing iTunes and restarting again. Didn't work.
4) I tried stopping/starting the Apple Mobile Device process in Control Panel>Services. No effect.
4) I tried the steps where you go into Common Files>apple>x>xdrivers and using the file there, but it would say it's incompatible or something to that effect. So that didn't work.
5) I restored my iPad without iTunes. When I attempted to restore the iPad with iTunes, it gave me an error message (4005,I think), and said it could not be restored. Full stop. Thus why I wiped the iPad using the option in Settings>General on the iPad itself. But wiping it achieved nothing.
6) I put my iPad back into recovery mode to get it recognized in iTunes and Windows again, where before I could get out of recovery mode, I can no longer do that and it appears to be stuck on that screen. Turning it off doesn't change that, because when I turn it back on, it goes directly back to the screen with the Cable + iTunes logo image.
7)Note again, that being in recovery mode will *almost* always allow my laptop and iTunes to recognize the iPad. If I look into Devices and Printers now, it doesn't show up as iPad, it shows up as Apple Mobile USB Device Driver. in iTunes, it shows up as iPad and I get the notice "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery..."
8) My iPhone works fine and can update, get immediately recognized, etc. So I'm also sure there's no problem with my USB ports in terms of being functional.
Please help me. This has been really frustrating.You should use a USB port on the back of your computer when you connect. What other devices do you have connected to the USB chain (other than your keyboard and mouse)?
You need to read this article: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305136 Even if no new driver is available for your computer, reload the USB Driver following the instructions in the article.
Once your iPod can be seen in Device Manager in Windows, change the drive letter on the iPod to something higher (try M or P) and then reformat it (FAT32 format, don't do a quick format). After this Restore it in iTunes. -
My ipad 4 is in recovery mode and says connect to itunes, but when i connect to itunes it says nothing. but in the device driver properties on my computer it says my ipad is in recovery mode. what should i do?
please help!See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 to restore the phone using Recovery Mode. You will lose all content on the phone. This is the only way to bypass the lock screen if you don't have the last computer the phone was synced to.

What does it mean when my ipad is in Recovery mode? It's connected to my imac for software update and it says I must "restore" the ipad before itunes can be used. Will I lose everything on my ipad?
Unless you have a backup from which you can restore, yes you will lose all of your data and settings.
You should be able to sync your content back to the iPad if you have been syncing with iTunes all along. If you don't sync with iTunes, you can download much of your paid content again for free as long as you use the same Apple ID. This explains downloading past purchases.

Unfortunately, at this point, you must restore the device before you can move on. There is nothing you can do to avoid it now. -
I was doing the IOS 7.0.2 update to address security. The IPad is now telling me to plug in to Itunes. When I do so, my MAC is saying the IPad is in recovery mode and my data will be lost. What happened?!! How do i fix?
Something went wrong with the update and you are in Recovery Mode.
Follow the instructions below to recover your iPad.

HT3743 Unlocked 3G blocked in recovery mode
I have unlocked my old 3G phone and have used a Tmobile sim card successfully for over a year, but now the phone won't work and is blocked in recovery mode after I responded to an Apple update messages. Suggestions?
unlocked how? If it was not officially unlocked via the carrier the update has most likely locked it back to the original carrier.

I forgot my ipad passcode. I tried:
1. Simply to restore the ipad on the computer it is normally synced with, but it askes me to enter the passcode.
2. to restore ipad using the recovery mode option. However when I try this iTunes askes me to turn off the "find my ipad" cloud option (which of course I cannot do as I cannot open the ipad).
3. to remotely erase my ipad, but as it is locked down it does not seem to be connecting to the internet and hence cannot seen through my "find my ipad".
I am completely stuck! Any suggestions please?!?!?I forgot my ipad passcode. I tried:

How to get ipad out of recovery mode?
how do I get my ipad OUT of recovery mode. i don't want anything deleted.
If you are already in recovery mode, then your data is already lost. Your only option is to restore through iTunes then reload your most recent backup which you say was some time ago. This is why you need to backup everything at least once a week. Then when problems arise, you haven't lost a lot of information.

IPad 1 in Recovery mode won't install correctly to connect to iTunes
I've forgotten my passcode on my iPad 1 and want to reset it completely.
I have put it into Recovery mode successfully and tried to connect to iTunes when doing this as described, but the PC says that the device has not installed correctly and so never appears in iTunes at all.
I have now tried this action on three separate PCs with iTunes on, each with a different cable, but the result is the same every time.
The PCs I have tried are all connecting to other iDevices successfully using iTunes.
Any solutions?
