IPod touch 4g failed to update to 6.1 and now can't recover

I tried to update my iPod touch 4G to 6.1 from 5.1.1.
At the beginning iTunes showed an error
Now my iPod is in the recover mode.
But iTunes says that it can't connect to update servers.
So, on the iPod's screen there is only an iTunes logo and a usb cable.

Mine works now too, i don't know what fixed it. I tried to update it using older version of itunes on another computer and it made it starter but it didn't finish the work. My home computer after 3 days of trying had finally connected to itunes and downloaded the recovery software, however i had to change usb ports for this to happen.
Not it is back in normal mode, but i lost all my apps.

    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 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.

  • I have just agreed to software updates on my imac and now can't open my mail.  There is a message saying this version of mail isn't compatible with this latest software.  I have located the updated mail in the applications folder but it won't open. Help!

    I have just agreed to software updates on my imac and now can't open my mail.  There is a message saying this version of mail isn't compatible with this latest software.  I have located the updated mail in the applications folder but it won't open. I don't have the original operating software disk.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Your reply suggests that you have moved Mail to a different location, which (as I said) will prevent it from being properly updated. You cannot use Mail 4.5 with any recent version of Mac OS X. Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) included Mail 5 and Mac OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion) includes Mail 6. I'm assuming that you have either Lion or Mountain Lion, but if that is incorrect, you will need to provide that information.
    At this point, you will need to reinstall your system. Hold down command-R at startup and reinstall the system right on top of the old one. This should not disturb any of your documents or applications, though you should have backups beforehand in case something goes wrong. And at this point, with your system in an uncertain state (I don't entirely know what you have done to it), something could go wrong.
    You will also want to delete the old copy of Mail 4.5, wherever that is. You can't use it.
    In the future, do not move any of the preinstalled applications. Leave them where they are.

  • Ipod touch 4 failing to update software

    I have an ipod touch 4th gen. and I am trying to update to version 5.  It connects for 2 hours downloading but as soon as it "updates -  processing file" I get the message "network connection timed out.  Make sure network settings are correct" and the ipod switches off.   I am using a laptop and vista, and I have been able to download in the past with other things and the connection doesn't time out.  How do I get the software updated?  I have no idea whether it is the computer or the ipod and simply don't know what to check.  Please help - my teenage daughter is desperate for it to be updated!

    I have suddenly discovered how to reply to you, Illaass.  Thank you very much - it worked.  I disabled the antivirus and firewall software and it downloaded the software without any problem.

  • IPod Touch used until battery went flat, starts charging and now it won't stop resetting itself (Apple screen). :(

    I have an iPod Touch, fairly old (think it's 3rd gen, has no camera). I used it today until the battery went flat, tried charging it as I normally do and now it's stuck as if it's having the home and off buttons pressed all the time... It keeps rebooting and always just stays to the Apple screen basically.
    Tried connecting to iTunes, shows up like it's syncing but, I can't select it to do anything.
    Any ideas on how to fix this?

    - Try restoring the iPOd.
    To allow the restore try:
    - a reset.
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Place the iPod in Recovery Mode
    - Placing in DFU mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - Let the batter fully drain. After charging fro at least an hour try again.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • I just gave my ipod touch to a friend with 10.4.11 and she can't use it, is this true?

    My best friend just worked her *** off for a full week for me, and I tried to pay her with my IPOD touch since I don't like mine.  She took it home, and since I reset it, she says she can't do anything with it. It only wants to sync with her computer and since Apple is Elitist and does not make their products compatible with each other, does this mean I have to re-sync it with my computer and let her use it like that?  and does that mean she cannot use the Music I put on there for her as soon as she plugs it into her computer ?  She is a Spotify user, does this mean she cannot listen to any music through the iPod function?
