IPod froze during ios update

I tried to update my iPod Touch 4th Generation with the new ios6 release but it froze during the update. Now all I get when I try to turn the iPod on is a blank screen. Can anyone advise me?

Try:                                               
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable                     
- Try on another computer                                                       
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Iphone froze during iOS update

    My iPhone 4s froze up the other day.  I was installing the newest iOS update.  It starts with the apple logo and then a progress bar starts to build underneath it not long after that starts it switches to a loading wheel that freezes up until it starts the process all over again.  I tried both holding the power button and the soft reset which both just start this same process over again.  I tried connecting to my MacBook but it says I need to verify on the phone that I want to connect to iTunes, which I can't do because I get nothing on the screen besides what I already described.  Any suggestions?  Thank You.

    Hey jonesjm25,
    Thanks for the question. It sounds like something may have been interrupted during the update process. To resolve your issue, let’s try restoring your iPhone in recovery mode:

  • IPhone 5 froze during iOS update

    My iphone froze during the iOS 7.1.2 halfway through. I've tried to do the hard reboot many times but my lock button is not working. Is there any other way of fixing it? Please help

    No, since your sleep button is broken.

    Error 1604
    This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. 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:
    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.
    Restore and wait for the error.
    When prompted, click OK.
    Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
    The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
    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.
    Error 1600, 1601, 1602
    Error 1603
    Follow the steps listed above for Error 1604. Also, discard the .ipsw file, open iTunes and attempt to download the update again. See the steps under Advanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations.If you do not want to remove the IPSW in the original user, try restoring in a new administrator user. If the issue remains, Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.

    Try to force your phone into recovery mode. Disconnect it from the computer's USB cord. Turn it off if you can by holding the sleep/wake switch until you see the red slide to off. If you can't turn it off, please continue. Press and hold the home button while plugging it into the computer's USB cord. Continue holding the Home button while iPhone starts up. While starting up, you will see the Apple logo. When you see "Connect to iTunes" on the screen, you can release the Home button and iTunes will display the recovery mode message. See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 for details.
    Then you can restore your phone: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414

  • IPhone 4 froze during iOS 7.02 update

    I just attempted to update my iPhone 4 to iOS 7.02 (from iOS 7) and had the phone freeze up during the verification of update process.
    After disconnecting the phone from my laptop it wouldn't even allow me to power down the phone for a few minutes. I finally got it to power down and reconnected it to my laptop via USB sync cable and was advised by iTunes to restore the phone.
    After restoring and updating the phone now runs "fine" (iOS 7 is just a little to much for my iPhone 4 I think) though rather slow.
    Current version iOS 7.02 (11A501).
    Planning on updating to the 5s pretty soon.

    No,you're wrong....
    there is iOS 7.2
    I updated my iPhone 4S few hours ago !!!!!!
    Yesterday appeared a notification on my iPhone 4S for iOS update.
    What I remember is first version of update 7.1 which was around 23 MB. I updated to the 7.1. After that appeared another version for update which was 7.2. So, I updated again to the last version which was 7.2. After finishing the update, the iPhone was restarting and turned off !
    When tried to turn it on, it does not worked and appears a message (Picture message) that connect your iPhone to iTunes. When I connected to iTunes, it says you should restore yours to its original settings !!!!!!!!!
    What the he**l is going on ? If I restore it, I would lose all my datas !!!

  • Ipod froze during update

    Just tried to instal the latest update and my touch froze. Itunes displayed could not restore   ipod.
    Now my touch just diplays the connect to itunes picture. but itunes doesnt reconize it

    Try resetting the iPod to see if it appears in iTunes.  If it does restore your iPod:
    Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    Next try placing the iPod in recovery mode to see if iTunes will see it so you can restore.  For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    Lastly see if placing the iPod in DFU mode will make it visible.
