IPod Touch 4th gen stuck in connect to itunes mode

At first my iPod Touch 4th gen said that it was "iPod not eligible for requested build" as I was trying to update to iOS 5. SO I went on internet and looked up the error. It told me to do a manual restore. Now my iPod is stuck on the "Connect to iTunes" screen and is not being recognized by iTunes: "iTunes could not connect to this iPod because an uknown error occured (0xE8000022)."

*Forgot to say, What should I do, PLEASE HELP!
Thnx in advance

  • Ipod touch 4th gen stuck on connect to itunes and itunes doesn't detect the ipod. tried all options the wedsite gave me nothing is working

    I have tried everything that apple.com has told me. I have watched countless videos. I'm at a complete loss. I just want my ipod to work without destroying my computer.
    This "connect to itunes" screen is driving me nuts.
    Please HELP!!!

    Try:                           
    - 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 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.

  • IPod touch 4th gen stuck in connect/disconnect loop, will not charge on desktop PC, but is recognized fine by older laptop?

    I have an iPod 4th gen that up until the week before was connecting and charging fine on my desktop computer (running Windows 7(64-bit)).  Now, when connected to the USB ports on my desktop, it goes into this rapid and unending connect/disconnect loop, never staying connected long enough to even be recognized by the computer.  There is an error message that also says that charging is not supported by the computer, when before, things were fine.  Despite all the problems on the desktop, the iPod is recognized fine by my 5 year old laptop, which is running a simplified version Windows XP.  Halp.  I've tried everything on the iPod support pages regarding this issue, and would really like to avoid calling Apple about this.  Any suggestions?

    Try putting it is DFU mode:

  • My iPod touch 4th gen does not connect to itunes

    Okay, so I never had problems with my iTunes until recently. Whenever I connect my iPod 4th gen into the computer, it connects and charges but doesn't show up in my iTunes. My iPod works and everything, it just won't connect to iTunes. I reinstalled iTunes completely like it said in support, and I have restarted Apple Mobile Device, several times. I have the current iTunes 10.4 too. Does it have anything to do with connecting my iPad 2 into the iTunes? Because it was fine up until I had done so. Also, when I check my services the Apple Mobile Device service is stopped when I connect my iPod. Before it, it says running though. My iPod will also connect to other computers, just not my own. All other computers have also not had the iPad 2 connected to it. Any thoughts? I would really like to sync my games and music to my library again, without having to go to my sibiling's computer.

    Did you try to create a new user account in Windows, set up your iTunes account, disable autosync and connect your ipod? Try to transfer your purchases and back up manually before your sync for the first time. And don't forget to set up at least one contact and event in Woindows, to ba able to merge contacts and calendars.
    If this works, try to do the same for your ipad. If still ok, you might have to remove all Apple related Software for your other account, as described here: Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    Did you also check your security software settings?
    Additional Information
    If the Apple Mobile Device Service still will not start, or if it stops unexpectedly, this could be caused by third-party security software. Please follow iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software issues.

  • Ipod touch 1st generation stuck in connect to itunes mode what do i do?????

    hey,
    ive tried everything,
    i cant put it in recovery because i have a passcode...
    itunes says to enter the password.. but how can i when its on that screen...
    it wont even let me go in restore mode in itunes...
    this is really annoying and i have really old pics on the device
    please help

    Did you follow the instructions here for placing the iPod in recovery mode:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore
    I do not understand this statement: "i cant put it in recovery because i have a passcode..." since placing the iPod in recovery mode is how you allow a restore.

  • My ipod touch(4th gen)no longer syncs to itunes 10.7 via USB

    My ipod touch(4th gen)no longer syncs to itunes 10.7 via usb. i knew it didn't work via wifi with the new updates but this is too far. i can't see it in itunes at all anymore. i restarted my ipod already still with no results. the only thing i did is create and delete playlist from the ippd and deleted others from itunes as well. i've done it before but this time i assume it's led to this. any suggestions?

    Disregard. It seems i just needed to install an optional update with windows update. either that or just restart my computer instead of my ipod. silly me.

  • My ipod touch (4th gen) won't sync with itunes, OSX

    My 8gb ipod touch (4th gen) won't sync with itunes. Running itunes 11.4 on OSX 10.6.8
    My touch was running fine until one day I found about 3gb occupied by 'other' space. I ended up restoring my ipod which took care of the problem, but created a new one in that the ipod will no longer sync anything from my itunes library. I have music set up to sync selected artists, and when I click the checkboxes to select my albums and artists to sync, the 'audio' bar fills up.
    When I click 'apply', the 'starting sync' and progress bar pop up for like half a second then disappear. Same goes with photos, apps, podcasts, etc.

    Verify that you have the right boxes checked to sync?
