  • IPod Touch stuck in recovery mode and not detected in iTunes

    I was trying to update my iPod Touch (currently 3.1.3), so I downloaded the 4.3.3 firmware (I didn't want to download the 4.3.5) and connected my iPod to my computer, opened iTunes and hit Shift+Restore. Then, I chose the 4.3.3 firmware and proceeded with the restore.
    However, the following appears:
    Error 1602
    I pressed OK and the restore process stopped. But, my iPod is stuck in recovery mode. Every time I reboot it, the recovery mode shows up. It's also not detected in iTunes although my computer recognize it as iPod Touch Recovery Mode.
    Please help me solve this. I can't use my iPod.

    Error 1602: Try the following steps to resolve this error:
    Ensure proper USB isolation troubleshooting has been performed, and test with a known-good cable.
    Follow the steps listed for Error 1604.
    This error may be resolved by disabling, deactivating, or uninstalling third-party security, antivirus, and firewall software. See steps in this article for details on troubleshooting security software.

    Also, when updating/restoring an iDevice, iTunes contactact the Apple sever to verify that you have the latest iOS version.  If not, it will not allow an install if an earlier version.

  • IPhone 5 stuck in recovery mode. Not recognized in iTunes for Windows

    Hi,
    My iphone 5 stuck during update to 8.2. It is now frozen in recovery mode, showing a 'connect to itunes' screen. The problem I have is that (the recently upgraded to 12.0.1) itunes is not recognizing my device. I have tried all of the suggestions here: iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch not recognized in iTunes for Windows, to no avail. I have not removed iTunes and reinstalled to test that, as I am concerned this will destroy the backups of my phone - which I will now desperately need once the phone is recovered.
    Has anyone got any suggestions?
    Cheers

    Hi AmberX92,
    If you receive an error 3194 when attempting to restore your iPhone, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article - 
    Error 3194, Error 17, or "This device isn't eligible for the requested build"
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Ipad stuck in recovery mode and won't restore--error code 1604

    I tried to backup and update my ipad this evening and when doing so it now is stuck on the itunes and USB screen.  When I connect the Ipad to the Itunes it says the Ipad is in recivery mode and to restore.  I click ok and it tells me i can't restore the ipad and gives me an error code of 1604.  I have no idea where to go from here or what happened.  Any ideas?

    Error 1604: This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, uninstalling and reinstalling USB ports, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections, device not recognized properly, computer won't recognize a FireWire or USB device). If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
    If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
       1. Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode, put it into Recovery Mode.
       2. Restore and wait for error 1604.
       3. When prompted, click OK.
       4. Close and reopen iTunes while iPhone remains connected.
       5. iPhone should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
       6. Try to restore again.
    If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.

  • My brother's iPod was disabled for 23 million minutes then my dad fiddled with it. Now it's stuck in recovery mode and wont connect to my computer or go into DFU mode. How do I fix it?

    It's an iPod touch 4S, white.
    I've tried on various computer types (windows, macs, and even a linux) and nothing. None of the computers even recognized a device being plugged in.
    I know it's not the cable, our other idevices use that one fine (I bought several more to be sure and no luck).
    My dad is at his wits end and I want this insanity to end. Help please.
    It's been locked so long I don't know what iOS it's on.
    Dear god, what did my brother do.

  • Ipod touch 5g stuck in recovery mode! when connected to itunes and download updates all over again!

    please help!!!!!!

    Maybe:
    Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
    Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
    Next try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.

  • Apple Mobile Device (Recovery Mode) and frozen "Connect to iTunes" screen

    I have had my iPod Touch for about one year and have synced with my PC (XP) without incident during that time. Yesterday something happened while connecting with iTunes and I have not been able to find the solution on this board or others. Maybe the charge remaining in the iPod was insufficient. The iPod screen is frozen with the "Connect to iTunes" icon. I can turn it off (black screen) but as soon as it is attached to the PC or docked, the same icon reappears. I cannot make the red slider appear to shut it down.
    On the PC side, as soon as I attach the iPod, it wants to install the driver for "Apple Mobile Device (Recovery Mode)". I have attempted to point it to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers find the driver, but what it wants is not there. I have completely uninstalled iTunes, Quicktime and related files; and reinstalled iTunes. I have tried every trick I can find in this forum and others to no avail. When the iPod is connected to the PC, the device manager shows Other Devices - Apple Mobile Device (Recovery Mode) with a yellow question mark and exclamation point. This device shows twice. The Apple Mobile Device USB Driver shows under Universal Serial Bus Controllers and is working properly.
    I am at the end of my rope. I hope somebody that can help me will read this. Thanks.

    Hi
    I am experiencing the same problem as the person in the first thread as follows:

    I have tried everything I can think of and have been advised to do on the Apple Support pages but this makes no difference.
    Please can someone offer a solution.

  • Iphone gone into recovery mode and wont connect to itunes or allow me to turn it on

    i tried to downlaod the new software and now phone has gone into recovery but wont connect to itunes or allow me to turn phone back on

    Hey Justinrulz108,
    Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    Your issue sounds similar to the device not being recognized in iTunes while in recovery mode. It may be good to attempt the troubleshooting in the following article:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    Refer to Step 5 "Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed" and the sub-section titled "If the device is not recognized while in Recovery Mode". Here is an excerpt to get you started (see article for full information, including important additional steps):
    Your device may not be recognized while in recovery mode. This can happen during an update or restore of your device. Typically when your device is in recovery mode, it will show the "Connect to iTunes" logo on its display. If iTunes does not recognize the device when in this state, try the following:
    1. Open the Device Manager:
    Windows XP: Click Start > Run. In the resulting dialog, type devmgmt.msc and press Return.
    Windows Vista or Windows 7: Click Start. In the dialog, type devmgmt.msc and press Return on the keyboard. If Windows needs your permission to continue, click "Continue".
    Windows 8: Move the cursor to the upper right corner, click the magnifying glass, type devmgmt.msc, and press Return.
    2. Click the plus ( + ) icon (Windows XP and Vista) or the disclosure triangle () (for Windows 7 and 8) next to Imaging Devices, Other Devices, Portable Devices, and Universal Serial Bus Controllers to expand these sections.
    3. Check these sections for one or more entries called Apple Mobile Device (Recovery Mode). These entries may or may not have exclamation marks on them similar to the following:
    [continue with steps]
    Thanks,
