dfu mode
How to enter iPhone DFU mode
Connect the iPhone to your computer and launch iTunes
Turn the iPhone off (hold down the power button at the top of the iPhone)
Hold down the sleep/power button and home button together for exactly 10 seconds, then release the power button
Continue to hold down the Home button until a message appears in iTunes telling you an iPhone in recover mode has been detected
When you are in DFU mode your iPhone screen will be completely black
Even though the screen is black, that doesn’t mean the device can’t be interfaced with either iTunes or a custom firmware client (for jailbreaking, etc).
Remember that if you see the restore logo, iTunes logo, or any message on the iPhone screen, you are not in DFU mode but standard Recovery Mode. Again, DFU mode is signified by having a completely black screen on the device. If anything else is the case, repeat the steps above until you enter into DFU mode successfully.
Exit DFU mode on iPhone
The simplest way to exit out of DFU mode is to hold down the Home and sleep/power buttons on the iPhone while connected to iTunes. Then just hit the power button as and this should reboot the device as usual.
And if you’re curious, yes this works all the same on an iPod touch.

IPhone 4 went to restore mode after updating to 4.1 - it's NOT jailbroken

I just clicked on the download and update then an error popped up and then it went into restore mode.
I don't want to restore it because I don't want to lose my data. I synched the phone right before I updated it.
My phone is not jailbroken so I'm not sure why this happened.
How can I recover my data?
Please help!
Need my phone ASAP!
Thanks!

If you synced, then you should have all the data on the computer.
You should be able to restore from a the latest backup.
I highly doubt that you will be able to do anything without restoring.

HT6058 iPhone put into Recovery Mode after updating to 7.0.4, and now iTunes can't restore it from my computer. What do I do?

Once my iPhone 4 updated the iOS to 7.0.4, it immediately went into Recovery Mode, with the iTunes symbol. I plugged it into my computer, and it says I need to restore the iPhone. I click Restore, but in says it can't connect because of my network connection. I've followed every troubleshooting issue from the support section related that issue, but it STILL won't connect and download the recovery.
What do I do to get my iPhone fixed? And why did 7.0.4 cause this?

Don't worry about that. iPhone stuck in recovery mode always happens when you update the iOS on your iPhone. There are two ways to solve it.
First is is to put your iPhone in DFU mode.
Step 1. Turn off iPhone
Step 2. Hold down the Power and Home button.
Step 3. When you see the Apple logo, release the power button but continue holding the Home button down.
Step 4. Open iTunes and wait for it to tell you that it’s in restore mode.
If DFU mode can't solve the problem, I'm afraid the only solution is to try some 3rd party software, like iPhone data recovery or something like that. You may simply try the tutorial here: How to Fix iPhone that is Stuck in Recovery Mode.

Fix iPhone 4S in recovery mode after updating from IOS5 to 6.1.3

How do i get my iPhone 4S out of recovery mode without losing all my data? I am not very tech savvy and too scared to do anything without instruction. My phone went into recovery mode when updating from IOS5 to 6.1.3 (or whatever was the latest yesterday). Oh how I wish I hadn't. I think I want my IOS5 back!
Can I use Google Maps on 6.1.3?

Okay I have read that info but the iTunes sreens I am experiencing has different messages.
1st = iTunes has dectected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore the iPhone before it can be used in iTunes.
2nd = iPhone is in recovery mode. Restore
3rd = Are you sure you want to restore the iPhone "iPhone" to its factory settings? All of your media and other data will be erased, and the newest version of iPhone software will be installed.
iTunes will verify the restore with Apple. After this process is complete, you will have the option to restore your contacts, calendars, text messaes and other settings.
.. now will my music, apps and photos be saved too? Here are the three messages.. you can see that the iTunes settings/screen configuation is not like those in the tutorial in the link. There is nothing in my "summary" and no restore to back up shown at this point. So I am wary to proceed.
Thanks again to my helpers. Also I don't mind if the whole update was aborted.

My Ipad went into disable mode after my grandchild entered the wrong passcode several times. I have never synced this IPad, and I have so many photos on the Ipad that I do not want to lose. I have the correct password, is there anyway to enable the IPad

My Ipad went into disable mode after my grandchild entered the wrong passcode several times. I have the correct passcode, but I have never synced the IPad. It says Connect to Itunes Diable Ipad. I have many pictures I do not want to lose and I have never backed up. Is there a way to open the Ipad without losing all of my pictures or data.

You should be able to recover any pictures you have taken on your iPad (in Camera Roll), but not application data etc, by connecting, via USB not wifi , to your computer.
If you are using a mac, connect your iPad, if iTunes automatically launches close it, run iPhoto and wait till your iPad is shown under Devices, you can then import all or selected photos.
If you are using Windows, again connect and close iTunes if it starts. Then browse the device using explorer, your photos will be shown on the device in My Computer held in a folders under DCIM (or something similar), you can copy and paste them into which ever folder you want on the PC.
The rest I'm afraid is gone unless you can remember the passcode, sorry.
Hope all goes well.
Cheers

IPhone 3G went into recovery mode after installing iTunes 9.0 and 3.1 OS

Hi there,
I recently had to waste about 2hrs time, to get a not working 3.1 OS update fixed on my iPhone 3G. This is not the kind of hassle I would expect from Apple!
I am using a MacBook with OSX 10.5.6 and an iMac with SnowLeopard and iTunes 9.0.
When upgrading from 3.0.1 to 3.1 on the iMac my iPhone 3G immediately went into some kind of "recovery mode". Three attemps failed to get that fixed. The iPhone would always be recognized as a iPhone in "recovery mode".
iTunes would then connect to some kind of Apple service, to restore/recover the phone, but then fail again and again with a "2600" or so error. Detailed info on that error would furthermore lead to a Apple website, that was not accessible ("sorry, there is no information available...").
Finally I had the idea to connect the iPhone to my OSX 10.5.8 MacBook's iTunes 9, which surprisingly managed to get the iPhone out of recovery again. First all my app store apps were gone, but then I found a tab within iTunes, where I could recover all my apps (after checking the option "overwrite apps on iphone").
This was by far the most stupid gone wrong upgrade process on a before well working phone and an iMac, I have ever encountered.
Thanks for the wasted time, Apple. Proably you guys should get things straight before releasing banana phone OS updates, that work on one Apple and not the other.
Cheers
Christoph

Awesome, thanks!! I actually read on another forum about doing that on an XP computer because Vista and 7 drivers get screwed up for the iPhone, so I just got done doing it on an XP computer and it WORKED!!!!
Thanks for the reply!

My iphone 3Gs has gone into recovery mode after updating via itunes..help..

I plugged my iphone 3gs into itunes yesterday and it started to update the software - presumabley to 10.5? - came back to it an hour later and it was displaying an image of a usb cable and itunes symbol which i now undertand means its gone into recovery mode.
I tried to restore it to the factory settings as advised but it won't work. Its telling me "This device could not be restored, it is not eligible for the requested build"
Please help - this phone is not jailbroken!

Ok, after 2 nights searching forums and trying different things I have managed to find a solution. I had to add a '# ' at the begining of the host directory. This means nothing to me and I had to follow the steps in the following link but it worked perfectly -

My Iphone 3GS is in restore mode after updating to IOS 4.3

I need help I was trying to update my IP 3GS and now i'm stuck in restore mode is there a way to fix it with out losing my contacts?

Check this out:
Error 1604: This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, uninstalling and reinstalling USB ports, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections, device not recognized properly, computer won't recognize a FireWire or USB device). If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode, put it into Recovery Mode.
Restore and wait for error 1604.
When prompted, click OK.
Close and reopen iTunes while iPhone remains connected.
iPhone should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
Try to restore again.
If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.
Error 2000-2009 (2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, and so on): If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software.

IPhone 4s went into recovery mode while updating to newest IOS

While I was updating my iPhone 4 tonight to the newest IOS, it stopped and gave me the 'this iphone is in recovery mode' messagae and the only option was to restore it to factory settings. I am running the newest OS on my imac 10.9.2 and my iphone is not jacked. I bought it from Apple/AT&T and it has only been backed up to itunes via my iMac since I bought it. I am frustrated but at this point, I'll never know what caused this.
When I clicked restore, the screen said it would erase all data and load the newest IOS. Assuming it is a successful restore, can I sync my iPhone to my last back up to get all my data back? If not, what are my options?
thanks for any help.
Michelle

Error 1603
Follow the steps listed above for Error 1604. Also, discard the .ipsw file, open iTunes and attempt to download the update again. See the steps under Advanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations.If you do not want to remove the IPSW in the original user, try restoring in a new administrator user. If the issue remains, Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.
Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
Also, it could be due to an incompatiblity with iTunes and the pre-release Windows 8 version.
