My iPad 2 is stuck on the connect to iTunes screen after trying software update

I was updating my software on my iPad 2.  Now it is stuck on the connect to iTunes screen. Help!

That is telling you to connect to iTunes on your computer because now you need to restore the device. Something went wrong when you updated. So connect you iPad to your computer's iTunes and restore.

  • HT201263 My iPhone 4 is stuck on the "Connect to iTunes screen" after trying to update to iOS 7.0.4! Help!

    I was attempting to update my iPhone 4 to the new iOS 7.0.4 via my computer after I plugged it in to create a backup copy and something went wrong before it could finish and I recieved an error message. Now my phone is stuck on the "Connect to iTunes screen". I've tried everything to reset & restore my phone with no luck!
    I have:
    -Restarted my computer
    -Updated iTunes to most current version
    -Turned phone on and off several times, waiting up to a half hour before turning on (to be greeted directly with apple logo then the connect to iTunes screen)
    -Turned on, turned on and held home button (nothing happens)
    -My computer is NOT recognizing my device at ALL! But when I plugged my boyfriends iPhone in, it detected it no problem.
    I tried calling my phone from the other phone and it goes straight to voicemail. I am super frustrated! Does anybody know what is going on?

    I was able to restore my phone!!!
    I called Apple and they said there was nothing more I could do. I called my carrier Verizon and was able to get my computer to recognize my device after trying this-
    Solution:
    After trying EVERYTHING this is the ONLY thing that worked-
    I took the USB connector cable out of the USB port it was in, and tried another one on the otherside of my laptop and iTunes was able to discover my phone in recovery mode. My phone was reset and everything is fine ( thank gosh for backup copies!)

  • My iPhone 4 stuck in the "connect to iTunes" screen after trying to update to iOS 7

    Hey guys.
    So i have a pretty big problem here. Today after a little bit of work I updated my iPhone 4 to the new iOS 7. I went to bathroom at some point, while my phone was updating, and when i returned the screen of iPhone showed the "connect to iTunes screen" and no matter what I did, it just stayed there. iTunes doesn't recognize my phone anymore, doesn't matter how many time I plug it in and out. I tried this thing: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 ,but it did not worked. I tried reinstalling my iTunes, but it did not work either. If the little things matter I left "lauch iTunes" box unchecked after reinstallation. Any help apriciated guys, im desperet here.

    YESSSSSSS HUGE PROBLEM!
    Iphone 4 downloaded ios 7 i hit the install button and the phone entered recovery mode and hasnt woke up since, tried tiny umberella and it wont kick it out of recovery mode. Itunes recognizes it in recovery mode, hit update restore, after the update nothing pops up or happens, and right back to square one like i never even updated or restored.

    my phone is stuck on the connect to itunes screen after trying to recover it to a backup.what should i do???
    PLEASE HELP!!!

    Hold down the Home and Power button to shut off the iPhone. Keep it disconnected from the computer. Then, hold down the Home for 20 seconds. Connect it to the computer while continuing to hold down the Home button. Wait for iTunes to say your iPhone is in Recovery mode. Then, restore.

  • My iPod is stuck at the "Connect to iTunes" page after trying to update

         I tried updating my iPod to iOS 6 just after it came out, but my iPod never made it through the process. Just after backing up and restoring, I got an error message saying my computer could not connect to the iPod anymore, and it hasn't connected since. I'm still stuck at the "connect to iTunes" page, and I've tried reinstalling iTunes, and I've gone through all of the support pages on the apple website. I'm running windows 7 64 bit, and I was on iOS 5.1.1.

    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 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.

  • TS1538 my iPad is stuck on the connect to itunes screen after updating.

    I have seen several post about screen locked on the iTunes connect after updating software.  I have tried all these methods.  My iTunes does not recognize my device and my device will not turn on so I cannot do a reset.  I tried the hard reset by pressing both the home button and the on/off switch and then connecting to my computer.  My computer dings like a new device was connected but I cannot see my device in iTunes.
    Suggestions appreciated. 

    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without be charged again.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

  • My Ipad is stuck on the connect to itunes screen and I cannot get it to work even when I connect to itunes. I have tried switching it off and plugging it in while the home button and on button are switched but nothing works.  Please help me.

    My Ipad is stuck on the connect to iTunes screen, I have tried plugging into iTunes but it makes the necessary noise but the computer does not recognise it and nothing alters on the Ipad screen. Have tried various computers and leads and it still does not work.  Have also tried the switching off, plugging in to computer and turning on again using the on button and then the home button but nothing works.  This happened while I was downloading software update.   Please help me.

    I suggested several things to GeekyNerdGirl in her first post here. Take a look.
    My iPad is in what seems like permanent restore mode after iOS 7.2 update?
    It can take more than a few attempts before Recovery Mode will work and you have to follow the steps exactly. DFU mode is even harder to perform correctly beside of the 10 second hold. Don't stop trying. Eventually one of these methods could work for you.

  • My iPad is stuck on the connect to iTunes screen

    My iPad was given to me from a friend who couldn't get it to work, So Im not totally sure of the steps leading up to the current issue.
    Currently the iPad is stuck at the connect to iTunes screen, it doesn't appear in iTunes, not even in DFU mode. I am running Lion and it has yet to even appear in system profiler. I have tried 2 cables, both work fine with my iPhone but not the iPad. I cant tell if it charges or not, the battery is charged for now, and pluging it in doesn't tell me anything. Any ideas? or is it just a shiny paper weight?
    Thanks.

    I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Check here to see if it is still under warranty:
    Apple - Support - Check Your Service and Support Coverage
    However, you do not a warranty for the Genius Bar.

  • I have an iPhone 3g 8GB model. Stuck on the 'connect to iTunes' screen after update of 4.2 iOS. Solutions please?

    I did the 4.2 update on my iPhone 3g. But after downloading and updating it, the phone is now stuck on the 'connect to iTunes' screen and does not move further. Tried the recovery mode operation also, but everytime in the end, it hangs at the end and shows the ''We could not complete your iTunes Store request. The iTunes Store is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later.' I tried all the usual suggestions of updating iTunes version and updating the Windows updates, but no luck. Even uninstalled the anti-virus. Please help.

    It is restored now.  Thanks for the comment about disabling firewalls - we did that and tried again and it worked.

    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
    Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.
