    - Cancel the restore. Force close iTunes if necessary. Disconnect the iPod and reboot the computer and try again.
    - Next try on another computer
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • When I put my ipod into DFU mode, does it lose all of the photos and songs?

    Just wondering.

    No, all of your data will stay on the iPod Touch
    I have put my iPod Touch 2nd gen in and out of DFU mode at least 10 times.

  • Ipod in dfu mode

    Hi, i am in really big trouble, as on the 28th i decided i shoul update my ipod software to IOS 5. I plugged it in and downloaded it but unfortunately as it was installing to the ipod, i thought it was taking a while, and decided to try to cancel it, and in the end i unplugged it. Then i started to worry when it got put in dfu mode, now itunes won't even recognise it! Windows recognises it being plugged in and unplugged, i have been trauling through loads of websites to find out how to help it. I have also tried restarting and shutting down my laptop. Please help. (ipod touch 4th generation)

    Jailbreaking voids the Apple warranty and also means that you will not get any support from Apple, including from this Apple forum. Jailbreaking can't be discussed in this Apple forum.

  • Restore iPod in DFU mode?

    Hey their Apple communities
    I have an iPod touch that definantly has viruses on it. I want to restore and update. If I were to enter DFU mode would this stop the viruses fro transfering to my computer? Also, after I done this would the viruses be completely wiped off my iPod?
    Thanks and I hope you can answer my question

    No, don't wipe it.  If it definitely has viruses on it then it is probably a valuable historical artifact because it would likely be the first. 
    What proof-positive do you have that it has a virus?

    - 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.

    A few days ago i got my iPod into DFU mode and i can't get out of it.I've tried installing the new iOS but that hasn't worked and it wouldn't restore in iTunes.Please Help!

    How did you get your iPod into DFU? I can't get mine into it and I have a 3G. And to get out of it I know you have to press and hold the Home and Power button together till you see it start up.

  • DFU Mode not recognised in iTunes?

    Hi everyone :) Recently I put my iPod into DFU mode, to do a restore. However, when I put it into DFU mode, iTunes did not regocnise it. I'm aware that recovery mode is a similar thing, but I'm worrying about the DFU mode. I'm on an iPod Touch 4th Generation running iOS 6.1.3. I put another iPod running on the same software in DFU mode and its regocnised. Does anyone know why mine is not being recognised? Thanks in advance :)

    Does it charge/get warm when connected?
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • Nano 2G DFU Mode (Stuck) Cannot do anything

    I have a red 2nd Gen nano 4gb .
    I unplugged the cable during restore and now its corrupted .
    Here is the story:
    I had the white blank LCD problem , the ipod would work and play , but no display unless i do a restore which would temp fix the problem .
    Anyway .. after trying a hundred restores and resets i decided to corrupt the firmware (by unplugging the cable during restore) in the hope that the ipod firmware can be completely erased and re-written with restore in itunes .
    Now i the computer is finding an ipod in dfu mode
    Itunes is saying that it cant recognize the ipod
    I've tried reseting the ipod but it doesnt help .
    I cannot see what is on the display because the lovely blank lcd prob is still there .
    Any ideas ?? Its a shame to throw away a 100% scratch free nano .. Please help

    Have you tried using it with a program other than itunes, such as Sharepod.exe?
    Also, if you have disk mode enabled, open it as a drive, and go to iPod_Control\Device. Look for a file called ExtendedSysInfoXml, and see what it says about the display.
    I've unplugged the cable during restore (I've tried everything and anything to get the nano to unlock). It doesn't do a thing for unlocking, but it also didn't kill the display screen either.

  • Restore through DFU mode, lost content!

    i restored my ipod through DFU mode, and lost all the apps, music, and all other content. I restored it through the previously synced version, and still no content. How do i get my apps back?

    I understand. Thanks. Maybe I should rephrase my question.
    I had come to the conclusion that I needed to do a restore of my iPod from a backup, since I was having a big problem. Since I was going to restore from the same backup, regardless of which method I chose, would more data from that same backup have been restored if I had chosen the "recovery mode" instead of "DFU"? I'm asking because it seems that once you get past the factory OS re-installation, the steps to restore from a backup seem to be the same, no matter which method you choose. So, would using "recovery" mode restore more data from a backup than "DFU" mode would? Like, would data be pulled from a backup any differently if I had chosen "recovery"? Thanks again, and sorry if I sound redundant.

  • IPod Touch 3G in DFU Mode and won't come out

    Hello,
    My daughter's iPod Touch 3G appears to be in DFU mode, but won't come out. The screen is completely black, and when I attach it to the computer, it comes up with the message "iTunes had detected as an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes." When I hit the restore button, I receive the error message "software for this iPhone is not currently available. Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes and try again."
    I've seen this message posted several times in the forum, and I have tried all the troubleshooting tips offered by Apple Support and in the answers to some of the questions. I am a Systems Engineer, so I consider myself pretty technically savvy. These are the steps I have followed so far:
    1) Completey removed and reinstalled iTunes according to the instructions provided by Apple.
    2) Downloaded the firmware for both the 3G and IOS4 from http://www.felixbruns.de/iPod/firmware/ and attempted a manual install - when I do this, I receive the error message, "the iPhone "iPhone" could not be restored because the firmware is incompatible"
    3) Downloaded RecBoot to attempt to exit recovery mode, but it does not appear to be detecting the iPod.
    4) Attempted to exit and re-enter DFU mode several times to no avail.
    5) Called Apple Express Lane and was willing to pay the 1 time phone support charge, however the agent told me that he could not help me, and that I needed to take the iPod into an Apple store (the iPod is 190 days out of warranty).
    My last effort is to try the install from another PC. So, prior to taking the iPod into the store, I was wondering if anyone has had any success other than the steps I have tried above. I'm appreciative for any assistance anyone is able to provide.

    Check the model number on the back, "A1318" = 3G, "A1288" = 2G. If it truly is a 32GB 3G Touch, then you're going to have a rough time going back to an iOS version earlier than the current release (4.3.1, available from iTunes). The iOS packs you get from the site you mention are not "signed" and you probably won't be able to install them ... I think 2G owners have better luck with those "unofficial" versions.
    So, if you have a 3G, your best bet is to erase (or move) all earlier iOS versions and let iTunes download a fresh copy of 4.3.1 for the iPod -- no need to go to a 3rd party site. If you have a 2G, then the latest version you can install is 4.2.1, which is also available from iTunes. To increase your odds of this working out, you might temporarily disable any AV software and firewall(s).

  • My iPod Touch is stuck in DFU Mode

    Hi,
    My Third Generation iPod Touch is stuck in DFU Mode (Completely Black Screen) and I cannot exit it as I have a broken Sleep/Wake button on the iPod. Even worse, iTunes will not see the device so I can restore it.
    The only thing that I can think of is to wait until it's battery has completely drained and then restore it.
    Please help me!

    Try placing the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs and then restoring:

  • IPod Touch stuck in DFU mode, broken lock button, will not connect to computer.

    I have an iPod 4g running on iOS 6.1.6. The lock button has been broken for little over a year now. But yesterday, my iPod went into DFU mode and will not connect to my computer whatsoever. I have tried everything that Apple tells you to do to try and fix this issue like restarting AMDS, reinstalling iTunes, and even the USB Driver. Nothing has worked, and I would really like some help with this. Thank you very much!

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    Ignore the reset and when it says place the iPod in recovery mode
