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

- 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.

  • 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!)

    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.

    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 5g was updating to 8.1 and is stuck on the "Connect to iTunes" even after updating. iTunes isn't reconizing that it is plugged in and I tried to reset, restart... nothing is working. Help?!

    iPod 5g
    iOS 8.1
    I think it finished updating(can't be sure) but is still stuck on the 'connect to iTunes' screen

    Magically, my ipod touch opened this afternoon.
    Through two weeks I tried several things like push power button for couple of minutes then push power and home button together for a couple of minutes. I replied this for a few times in a day. Also I put charge for 2 days after I firstly recognized my ipod is black out. But for a long time I didn't try charge for a long time (just half an hour etc.)
    I put charge at morning today then when I came home at afternoon ( approximately 12-14 hours) my ipod touch was full charged and opened.
    I promised that I will write my solution. I'm not sure this is a solution or not but my ipod touch is alive now.

  • 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.
