Reboot the computer then try placing the iPod in Recovery mode and then restoring via iTunes.
Next try DFU mode.

IPad 2 frozen on screen with 'Connect to iTunes' logo..while updating.

My iPad 2 (wifi+3G) 64 GB is frozen on the connect to iTunes logo.. I started experiencing this problem when I was updating it to 5.1.1 from 5.0.
The firmware download completed in iTunes. It extracted the software and then iPad rebooted to update the firmware. But instead of going through the normal updation.. it displayed the 'Connect to iTunes' logo instead and been like that ever since.
Also am using Windows XP.. so there was some error from the Windows OS while installing the driver for ""Apple Mobile Device (Recovery Mode)"" .. Can that too have an affect on the updation process?!?!
need help here.

You may need to set it into recovery mode to complete the registration process that somehow failed.

HT4623 My iPhone is locked with the connect to iTunes logo on screen. I have connected and trying to restore but it is not working. I have turned it on and off but to no avail.

This has happened doing the latest software update. I think I accidentally deleted iTunes before doing the latest update in trying to make room on the phone when it came up with limited space.

You might consider itunes match for moving CDs you've copied into your itunes library if you dont have a way to use home sharing.
iTunes match is an optional service offered by apple that costs about $25 a year. It scans your music library and if it finds music that is already in apple's itunes catalog it'll automatically "unlock"/"store" these in the cloud for you. Items that it does not find in the catalog it'll upload and store these in the cloud for you and you can download them on your devices. See http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/

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.

AT this point whatever data you have on yoru phone is already gone since it is in recovery mode.
However you can restore from your backup, when your phone reboots from recovery.
YOu do have a backup right?

You are very welcome...few users realize that the recovery mode restore may need a few tries to get it to work...so often just add the caveat. There is a difference between parents and their children who have lived with technology all their lives
