    - 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.

    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
    - Then do the other actions of:

  • TS1363 My Ipod touch 4th Generation, Is stuck in recovery mode.

    Okay, my Ipod touch 4th generation, Is stuck in recovery mode after trying to restore and update it to the latest software. The restore failed and it's now stuck in Recovery mode. I've tried everything, and it just wont work. It won't even recognise in Itunes. Help?

    I don't know if you will see or get this because issue is old but I thought I'd try anyway.  This is what happened to me.  I don't see any responses, if you don't mind me asking, what ever happened with your ipod?  This is my son's and I don't have a store around the corner so I was curious before I make a trip?

  • My iPod touch 4th gen is stuck in recovery mode with a broken 'lock' button.

    My iPod touch 4th generation is stuck in recovery mode with a black screen and I can't get it out. It has a broken lock button and I have tried everything to get it out of recovery mode. Every time I plug it into iTunes, it recognises my iPod and says 'iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode. You must restore this iPod before it can be used in iTunes, so I have restored it several times and every time, it says there is an unknown error. Please Help!! (my iPod is IOS 6.0.1)

    What is the complete wording of the error message that says unknown error? Usually more information like a error number is also given.

  • Ipod Classic 80gB Stuck In recovery mode - PlZ PLZ PZ PLZ HELP!!!!!

    Please anyone,
    I searched the internet and didn't find anything, i just got the ipod, i don't know what to do. I just cant restore and update my ipod and i never could before (errors 1415 and 1418) . but now i only have the option to restore since my ipod is stuck on recovery mode. and now the ipod is useless until i fix it. so please help
    Apple is very disappointing, they have no problem charging high prices but they dont give the support needed to the customers. the ipod is buggy and it had problems since i got it(yesterday)

    You can ring them up but be aware that if you haven't got AppleCare and you've had your iPod for more than 90 days you'll be charged for technical support. You only receive one complimentary support incident, which must be used within the first 90 days of product ownership: Contact Apple Support
    If you have an Apple store near to you, you can take it there and have them look at it. You can make an appointment by using this link: Genius Bar Reservations

  • IPod Classic froze, tried restart, now in recovery mode.

    I dropped my iPod Classic 160 GB, but it played fine for a while, then it froze. I tried to restart it by doing the slide-the-lock-then-press-Menu-and-middle-button thing, but then it said 'Restore in iTunes.' I tried that but now there is a white screen with a flashing circle-and-slash. It also says 'Do not disconnect.' I still have it connected to my computer. Will this help?

  • Someone tried to jailbreak my iPod and now it is stuck in recovery mode. How do I fix it?

    I'm not sure what jail breaking is, however one of my friends insisted on jail breaking my iPod, 4th generation. Now it is stuck in recovery mode and everything has been wiped out. I had backed my iPod up to my computer before everything happened. Thanks for any help!

    I suggest that you find a new friend.  Based on the experiences of others, the jailbreaking may well be non-reversible.  Here are some things to try...
    Restore...
    Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    If the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely.  Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.
    I really don't want to recommend the next step because it's a real PIA after the fact.  However...
    Restore as new with NO reload from backup!
    IF you choose to try it, here are some cautions.  Make absolutely certain that all purchased data, such as apps, music, movies, etc., are present in the iTunes library.  Also make absolutely certain that all non-purchased data, such as photos, pdf files, Word files, etc., are present and accessible somewhere on the computer's hard drive.  Be aware that you will lose all game data (scores, etc.).  Be forewarned that it is tedious recreating all your folders and putting each app where you want it.  Finally, be aware that all passwords will be wiped out and all settings will have returned to their default values.

  • My ipod touch second gen is stuck in recovery mode.... :(

    i jail broke my ipod touch so i could use the av wire in it and i noticed that it made my ipod slower. so i went to take it off and while it was restoring it stopped when i was almost done and said"itunes could not restore" so now everytime i try and restore i wont do it and my ipod is stuck in recovery mode telling me to plug it in to itunes

    Ok, now I don't know what 'jail breaking to use the av wire in it' is at all but a few days after my iTouch 4 obtained 2 diagonal cracks in the glass after dropping it on my bathrooms marble floor. I can only guess it hit right on the corner. Now before I had a chance to get it fixed something happened while playing a game and screen blanked out. To make an already too long a story a bit shorter ... It ended up having to restore it. While restoring mine too is stuck in Restore mode, never quite making it all the way to the end before whiting Out screen then once again being told to connect to iTunes. Help anyone???

  • My iPod touch 5th gen. is stuck in recovery mode giving me error 3/error 37/etc.

    So yeah, it's stuck there. It started happening about a month and a half ago, and when I finally brought it to the Apple Store for the first time they plugged it in and bam it was fixed. It was good for 1-2 weeks, and then suddenly, bam, problem is back and would come back every week or so. Finally, after the third time to the store, the employee ran some sort of test to check if the hardware was messed up. It turned out that it had already crashed a minute after the successful restore. So they replaced it. Went to pick it up today, brought it home, went to restore it from back up and all was good. iTunes then prompted me to update the iOS, so I did. It crashed and now I'm stuck in recovery mode. So basically back to zero. I'm really kind of depressed about this and I'm going to the store tommorrow, but I was wondering if anyone could possibly have some help to offer.

    Check for hardware issues
    Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the alert when you update or restore, contact Apple support.
    Common errors: 1, 10-47, 1002, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1000-1020.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • HT4623 I ran the IOS 7 update and now my phone is stuck in recovery mode. Help?

    I ran the IOS 7 update on my phone and now it is stuck in recovery mode. On my phone it shows a cord and the I Tunes logo.  When I connect to I Tunes it tells me "itunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes."  Then it only gives me the option to Restore iPhone.  But when I click on this it gives me the message that it is going to reset my phone to factory settings.  Doesn't this mean I will loose everything?  What do I do?  Is there a way to fix this without losing everything? 
    Help?
    Thank you,
    Nicole
