Hi there,
my Ipad is stuck on the iTunes logo. When I try to restore my ipad again it would get stuck on Restoring Ipad Firmware. I had unplugged it several times; and redo the whole restoring agian but its still the same thing. Please really need your help in how I can restore my Ipad to the way it was before.
please advise,

removing volume control doesn't work for me. please don't try. I tried because i have replaced my LCD before and it is easier for me to do so. Removing your LCD will cause whole lot more issue, such as damage to your WIFI antenna, power and volume button, LCD, and all kind of issue.
The only solution that "experts" can tell you is to restore via DFU mode and this WILL NOT solve the issue, or restore with save SHSH, which i believe most of you don't have. DON"T WASTE YOUR TIME AND GET A DEVICE THAT YOU CAN REALLY "WIPE" AND "RESTORE".
So far there is no solution to fix the "Restoring IPAD firmware" or "Updating IPAD firmware". I really don't know why Apple is adding the check after IOS 7 which is causing so many issues for ipad 2. I guess the reason behind is because the warranty expire and perfect time to force ipad 2 user to buy new ipad, which I personally don't feel like much improvement. WHY WE NEED APPLE approves when restoring the device that we already paid FULL price for?????
It is ashamed that the issue caused by update or restore are not covered by warranty too. so stay away from new IOS and it will only brick your device and force you to get new device. it is opened secret that new upgrade for any device will ONLY slow down your device and force you to buy new one, especially when new IOS is not making your FLY.

During restore iPod stuck on RESTORING IPOD FIRMWARE

As stated by me above, during restore iPod got stuck on RESTORING IPOD FIRMWARE. Last time tried different computer, it did work. Next, with different firmware file (when the-other-computer-trick stopped working) like 2.0.2 and then upgrading it - worked for a time. Now, I cannot find ANY way to restore it. Just by itself it accidentally and randomly enters the so called DFU mode and this time I just cannot restore it, every time it's stuck on RESTORING IPOD FIRMWARE

try have it restored in an apple store mate..
if that still doesnt work, send it back and have it replaced..

Updating to iOS 4.0 --- Stuck on 'Restoring iPhone firmware'

So basically, I was updating my phone to iOS 4.0 and all was going smoothly until now. It has been stuck on "Restoring iPhone firmware..." for the past hour and a half. My phone had turned off and I searched around and was told to turn it back on again, but still nothing has happened. My phone says plug into iTunes, but it already is. Can anyone help me?

alright guys i just got mine to work. im on a mac, i signed into a different user name, i downloaded a fresh copy of itunes from apple, and it all worked.

steps for working
1. restart computer
2. log into a new user name/ or try your normal one, new user name worked for me
3. download fresh itunes 9.2 from APPLE.

IPhone 5 Restore Stuck on "Restoring iPhone Firmware" (iOS8)

I just cannot believe this.
My cellular data completely messed up, while I was using it. It gave me "Searching..." even when I removed the SIM card.
Then I finally decided to restore the iOS8, and it stuck on "Restoring iPhone Firmware", then iTunes got error "The iPhone "iPhone" could not be restored. An unknown error occured (9).".
I had every single iPhone model and this is the first time that it gave me that kind of serious problem.
I've tried everything, and it just doesn't start working.
Then, finally, I've found that ALOT of users are reporting the problem.
I hope anyone here to have a solution, and soon Apple to release working update.
P.S. I'm using both Macbook Air and Windows Notebook.

I was restoring and updating my Iphone 5 to IOS 7.0,6 and during the process after completing more than 50% of the process my phone is stuck at "Restoring Iphone Firmware". Please Help.

Hello nishit.kadia,
It sounds like your phone became unresponsive when you attempted a restore of the device. Try resetting your device with this process:
To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
From: Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset

I would try putting the device in to recovery mode, and attempting the restore again:
