Hello there!
It sounds like your phone won't boot all the way, and is getting stuck at this screen: 
I would recommend you use the troubleshooting section labeled "If your device turns on but gets stuck during start up" in this article:
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

    Tried all of the recommended resets and combinations mentioned, but the ipod is still not recognized.  Genius at apple said it may be a hardware error, "The button is broke" but all of the buttons and cords work and i proved it to him. He then said he doesnt know, ma Now what?

    If it does not work on other computers then I agree with the Genius

  • HT1212 My iPod is stuck in recovery mode and it keeps asking me to input my passcode which is impossible if it's stuck in recovery mode.

    My iPod is stuck in recovery mode and it keeps asking me to input my passcode which is impossible if it's stuck in recovery mode.
    HELP!!!!

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen                         
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up     
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

    MY IPOD IS STUCK IN RECOVERY MODE. CAN SOMEONE HELP ME FIX THIS

    Withour knowing whar happens when you try to restore the iPod all I can suggest is:
    - 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.

  • Ipod touch stuck in recovery mode and will not restore. error code 3194

    ipod touch stuck in recovery mode, will not restore and comes up with error code 3194, itunes is up to date, please help

    Hi @rchangel - Thanks for the ideas...
    Yes - it won't let you install the 32 bit version on a 64 bit machine.
    I've had a cursory look at the SP1 release notes, and couldn't spot anything vital - what critical stuff do you know of in SP1?
    I don't want to have to go through all the pain of setting up VM's, reinstalling iTunes, getting all my album art back in etc. (though I could, as I do have Win7 pro). I've also heard that running iTunes in Windows 7 compatibility mode might help. Can anyone confirm whether that actually works?
    I think it's in Apple's gift to fix this issue, given that they say that they support Windows 7. So far I've had no feedback from a mail I sent to Apple, and the number of users reporting this problem keeps going up and up.
    I want Apple to recognise that there is a problem, and then I want them to fix it.

  • IPod Touch stuck in recovery mode and not detected in iTunes

    I was trying to update my iPod Touch (currently 3.1.3), so I downloaded the 4.3.3 firmware (I didn't want to download the 4.3.5) and connected my iPod to my computer, opened iTunes and hit Shift+Restore. Then, I chose the 4.3.3 firmware and proceeded with the restore.
    However, the following appears:
    Error 1602
    I pressed OK and the restore process stopped. But, my iPod is stuck in recovery mode. Every time I reboot it, the recovery mode shows up. It's also not detected in iTunes although my computer recognize it as iPod Touch Recovery Mode.
    Please help me solve this. I can't use my iPod.

    Error 1602: Try the following steps to resolve this error:
    Ensure proper USB isolation troubleshooting has been performed, and test with a known-good cable.
    Follow the steps listed for Error 1604.
    This error may be resolved by disabling, deactivating, or uninstalling third-party security, antivirus, and firewall software. See steps in this article for details on troubleshooting security software.
    Above from:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
    Also, when updating/restoring an iDevice, iTunes contactact the Apple sever to verify that you have the latest iOS version.  If not, it will not allow an install if an earlier version.

    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
    Public DNS — Google Developers
    OpenDNS IP Addresses
    - For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
    - Try on another computer/network
    - Wait if it is an Apple problem

  • IPhone stuck in recovery mode and I NEED MY MEDIA!

    Trying to update to the newest OS, typically failed with an "unknown error (-1)" and now my phone is stuck in recovery mode and wants me to restore it. I have many photos and videos only on my phone that I desperately do not want to lose, no icloud. How can I retrieve them?? I did a sync/backup via itunes right before trying to update but I don't think that saves my photos, does it, since itunes doesn't import photos from my camera roll? Help.

    Thanks. I ended up trying to restore it, and it then gave me the same error message! With "cannot be restored' AWESOME.
    I don't have access to another computer currently. I tried pretty much everything on that page and other forums I could find except for the things that I don't understand or don't know how to do such as connecting without an internet proxy(what? tech-stupid here, I need it spelled out.) configuring security software, ports and firmware and really this is all gibberish to me. It's mind baffling how I had a perfectly working phone and computer 2 days ago and now because of this stupid update I have no phone at all. Guess I'm just going to have to call apple and try to have them sort it out for me although usually when I call them I don't understand how to do half the things they say anyway... isn't there anyone who can translate more simply to a computer moron?? Hah. I'm in the middle of nowhere WV, apparently there's not even an apple store in this entire state, so that's out. Seems like everytime I have to update anything regarding apple it turns into a major problem.
