  • My ipod touch is frozen on the connect to itune screen after an update

    My ipod touch is frozen on the connect to itune screen after an update.  What do I do to solve the problem.  The power on-off button does not permit me to reboot the system.

    The BOLD may be necessary
    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.
    - 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 4G is stuck in "connect to itunes" screen.

    I just got my brand new Ipod Touch 4G (iOS 4.3.5), I connected it to my PC and put some music on it, I was using itunes 10.4.
    I update to itunes 10.5.0 and it wouldn't recognize my ipod. I searched online for solutions with no luck.
    Itunes says: "itunes was not properly install....."
    In My Computer my ipod showed as Camera Device, wouldn't let me copy  videos or pictures to the folder.
    In Device Manager, Apple Mobile Device (Recovery Mode) has the yellow warning triangle
    I don't have a CD with the ipod software -it didn't come with it- but I downloaded iOS 4.3.4, iOS 4.3.5 and iOS 5 in case I need them.
    I updated to itunes 10.5.1 and it recogized my ipod, it said a new iOS 5 was available, so I click to update to it.
    Everything was going right, until my ipod got stuck in the "connect to itunes" screen, and it didn't restore. (error 1604)
    Some times (with no reason at all) itunes would recognize my ipod and say "itunes has detected an ipod in recovery mode. you must restore this ipod before it can be used with itunes" I click OK, Restore and Update, it takes  some time and then, "error 1604"
    I've been searching online, but nothing works, I've tried these:
    -Putting the ipod in DFU mode, it would restart the ipod but the same screen will come up.
    -I uninstall, verified and reinstall itunes and its components (itunes, QT, Apple Software Update, AMDS, Bonjour, Apple Application Support)
    -Restart a million times my pc after installing.
    -downloaded fixrecovery.exe but it won't even start because zlib1.dll was not found.
    -downloaded RecBoot and it says "I must install the following .NET framework: v4.0.30319" -How do I know what framework I have???
    inside the RecBoot folder was the program iPHUCWIN32.exe, I started it and it says "this application has failed to start because iTunesMobileDevice.dll was not found".
    *Note:
    My HP Pavilion G60-235DX Notebook won't let me install updates from the Windows Update software (error 80096001). for a while now.
    The DVD/CD drive dissapeared from my computer (about 2 months ago), haven't found a solution for it yet (can't afford to take it to a repair shop or send to HP) that's why I'm trying myself.
    I want a solution for the IPOD problem, the rest will come later.
    Seriously guys, can some one help me with this? I'm desperated...
    Any good software to restore my ipod ? (I don't care about erasing all the content -I want it to work like it supposed to).

    I connected my ipod to another pc with windows vista also, with itunes ver. 10.4.1.10 but error 3194 came out, so now I'm going to try this:
    Exit iTunes
    Locate your hosts file:
    In Mac OS X /etc/hosts
    In Windows c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
    Open the hosts file with Administrator privileges using Notepad.
    Add the following lines to the very bottom of the hosts file:
    #74.208.105.171 gs.apple.com
    Connect your device to the computer
    Launch iTunes
    Put device into DFU Mode by turning your device off and then holding down the sleep and power button for 10 seconds, then release the power button but hold onto the home button until iTunes tells you that the device is now in recover mode
    Use the iTunes Restore feature as usual with the iOS device
    Once your iOS update is finished, remove the “#74.208.105.171 gs.apple.com” line from your hosts file again so that iTunes can properly update as usual.

  • My 3rd gen ipod touch is stuck on the "connect to itunes" screen

    I have a passcode on it so I'm pretty much just stuck there.
    I've tried restoring it, but the processes that were given in the links I found didn't work.
    I've also noticed that when I'm turning my ipod off and it get to the power down screen, the touch screen is unresponsive.
    Any help is appreciated, thank you in advance.

    Try restorng the iPod to factoery defaults/new iPod.  If still have the problem you very likely have a hardware problem.  If you have an Apple store nearby, I would make an appointment at their Genius Bar.

  • My screen is frozen on the connect to iTunes screen. help!

    I bought my iphone 4 in Australia on contract and unocked it. then i came to Singapore and its been working fine for the past 10 months, but only recently i updated my phone for the first time and it would not recognise my sim card. so i connected my phone to my computer, and when itunes opened it told me that my sim card was not recognised on my phone. now i thought by updating my phone apple recognised that it was unlocked so they just locked it again. i didnt understand the difference between jailbreak and unlocking a phone. so during the state of the phone being my normal screen page with no sim shown, i tried jailbreaking the phone so it could work again with my sim card from singapore, but as it re booted, it froze on the emergency screen with the attached to itunes screen. now i dont know what to do? my phone is locked, i cant use it and its extremely frustrating as i need to use my computer asap. please help me asap!
    thank you!

    I posted a new question while ago almost like this, no jailbreaking, so I need help.
