IPad mini stucks in recovery mode afte iOS 8

We tried to update iPad mini to iOS 8 via wifi yesterday. Now it shows the recovery mode screen and pressing home and power button in various ways does not help. We are on vacation without access to iTunes Or any other PC. We need iPad.
Can anyone help?

i originally tried to install the update using wifi and this did not work.  i think i might just chuck the thing as looking on the boards all my stuff will be lost anyway - i backed up 2 days ago but that is nowhere to be found now in itunes or the cloud kmt

  • Ipad mini stuck in recovery mode after ios 8.1 update

    i have a first generation ipad mini which usually works fine.  last night the ios update appeared in my settings and i tried to install it.
    i didnt have enough space so deleted some apps and then installed.
    the ipad switched on at the end but said the update failed as i didnt have enough space i needed a little more.  i deleted more apps and attempted to install again
    this failed my ipad is now stuck in recovery mode, it hasn't taken itself out as apples help pages suggest after 15 minutes its been in recovery now for 15 hours
    i have tried to connect to itunes as the screen is telling me to but it will not recover from there either as apparently i can't connect to apple servers my connection isnt working - i assume because others are having this problem as i a using the same pc to post this message so know my network is fine.
    i need help to get out of recovery mode - itunes says my software is up to date so i may have this nightmare software already.

  • IPad mini stuck in recovery mode

    I was getting a software update when my screen turned black and then showed the iTunes icon with a USB/charger thing with arrow pointing to the iTunes icon. My iPad will not respond to any other commands. I did some research and based on what I found I think I am stuck in recovery mode. Is there a possible way to get out of recovery mode and not lose all of my iPads data? Also I do not have an iTunes account. I would be extremely disappointed if my iPad lost all of its data. Thank you and if you see this and know how to get out of recovery mode PLEASE help I am desperate. THX

    I fix it by using iTuens, here we go:
    Press down the Home and Power buttons on your iPad until it shuts off.
    Connect iPad to your computer with the USB cable.
    Press and hold down the Home button.
    Hold it down until iTunes says your device is entering recovery mode.
    Now you should be able to Restore using iTunes.
    If it can't work out your problem, you can use iPhone Data Recovery to kick your iPad out of recovery mode.

  • The iPad is stuck in recovery mode from iOS upgrade. Screen is blank and connecting it to my computer will not change the ststus. Any help would be appriciated.

    While updating the iOS version on my iPad it entered Recovery Mode. The screen is blank and I can not get it to complete the recovery process. I have tried several times using both a MACBook and a Windows 7 based computer running the latest iTunes program. Is there anything I can do other than to send it to Apple repair?

  • Hi so my ipad is stuck in recovery mode.  Once I connected to itunes to install the ios 8 software it says that its eligible for the request build and I tried the sudo nano command and that didn't work either. Please help thanks!

    My itunes is up-to-date.
    Sudo nano command is not working.

    yes i am sure. This are the exact words... "The iPad "iPad" could not be restored. The disk you are attempting to use is full. (Removing files and emptying the recycle bin will free up additional space". i tried some options, hard reset, redsnow, tinyumbrella but still it's stuck.

  • Why is my ipad stuck in recovery mode after IOS update?  I can't get it out even after I restore.  Please help!

    I did an IOS update and now my iPad is stuck in recovery mode and I can't get it out.  I have tried to restore through iTunes, but after restore it says it is still in recovery mode.  Please help!

    Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is app and data safe!

    If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
    To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
    Use another USB cable.
    Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
    Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
    Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.
    If you checked your connections and are still seeing the error message, check for hardware issues.

    Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the error message when you update or restore, contact Apple support.
