Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers

- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem

  • My iPod touch is in recovery mode, how do I get it out of this?

    My daughter's iPod touch is in recovery mode (we know this by the code it gives us when she plugs it in to the computer), how do we get it out of this?  We have tried resetting by holding down the on/off button and the other button on the bottom front of the iPod for 30 seconds to a minute and nothing happens.

    Two ways to get the iPod Touch out of recovery mode.
    From iTunes click "Restore" this will download the latest iOS for your iPod Touch and install it.
    Second way is to press and hold both the home button and the sleep button for around ten seconds and release them when the Apple logo shows on the screen.

  • I put my iPad into Recovery Mode and can't get it out of it?

    This probably sounds really silly but i forgot my password for my iPad ( don't the the generation but i think it is the first one that came out with a camera & ios7 (i think)) and put it in recovery mode. i do not know my apple id for the iPad (i have 2 apple accounts) my macbook is on a different account to my iPad and won't connect so i cant
    get it out of recovery mode. i no longer have any other devices that has the iTunes account on either.
    any ideas on how i can get it out of recovery mode or connect to iTunes would really help and please don't suggest go to the apple store, its a pain to get to and a pain to get a time i can go . 
    Many Thanks In Advance x

    Place your device into recovery mode as described here.  You may have to try this more than once to succeed.
    If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    The version of iOS you had before attempting recovery mode does not matter.  Once the recovery successfully completes, you will have the current version (iOS 8.1.3).  You need the current version of iTunes (12.1) on your computer to perform the recovery.  Even if it goes smoothly, the recovery will take a while because it will include a download of iOS 8.1.3 to your computer (and then to your iPad).

    Hello there!
    It sounds like your phone won't boot all the way, and is getting stuck at this screen: 
    I would recommend you use the troubleshooting section labeled "If your device turns on but gets stuck during start up" in this article:
    If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,

  • HT1212 My iPod is stuck in recovery mode and it keeps asking me to input my passcode which is impossible if it's stuck in recovery mode.

    My iPod is stuck in recovery mode and it keeps asking me to input my passcode which is impossible if it's stuck in recovery mode.
    HELP!!!!

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen                         
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up     
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        

  • My iPod Touch is in Recovery Mode and iTunes Won't Detect It ?

    iPod Touch 4G
    iOS 5.1
    Purchased 2010
    I Opened Up iTunes and Upgraded to iOS 5.1.1 from 5.1 as a "Download Only". The Next Morning I Go To My Computer Plug In My iPod and Update. My iPod Then Goes into Recovery Mode and When I Quit Recovery mode It goes straight to recovery mode again with and without the cable. iTunes does not detect it when i plus it in and neither does my computer, i have tried restarting apple mobile support and that does not work. The nearest apple store is 20 miles but i could go there.

    See if you can kick it out of recovery mode with RecBoot.

    - If in recovery mode the screen will have an iTunes logo with an USB plug.
    - Have you tried connecting it to your computer for a n hw and then see if it appears in iTunes. If it does restore the iPod.
    - If screen is blank, try placing he iPod in recovery mode and then restoring. For recovery mode:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

    iPod is stuck in recovery mode, and not recognized by iTunes.

    i tried to resore my ipod 5 and the cable disconected and now its in recovery mode, how do i get it out?

    If not successful try the remaining items of:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - 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 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.
