    It sounds like you need to set it up, and that makes sense because you said that its a new iPod. Just go through the steps of setting up a new iPod and you should be good.

    Hello Sean,
    It sounds like you are constantly needing to restore your phone because it keeps going into recovery mode. Usually putting a device into recovery mode and restoring it can help isolate an issue to your iPhone hardware if an issue persists afterwards. I would try manually putting it into recovery mode and restoring it 1 more time:
    If you can't update or restore your iOS device
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    If that does not resolve it the symptoms indicate to me that it is a hardware issue causing this to happen and would seek service for it:

  • Itunes wont restore correct

    itunes wont restore correctly

    That's nice.
    Considering iTunes does not restore, how about providing some details of what it is that you are trying to accomplish and what specifically is happening.
    Without additional details, no one can assist you.

    Are you sure it is 1043? I've never seen that error before. But you can try disabling your security software, connecting the phone to a USB port directly on the computer (not a hub), and trying to restore again.

  • My ipod 4g is in recovery mode but itunes wont restore it please help

    it is now a block after going in recovery mode as itunes wont recover it as it stopped in the middle of the process saying it cant find a file.

    This usually happens if the phone has been Hacked / Jailbroken / Modified...
    Is this the case...?

  • My ipod touch is stuch on connect to itunes screen and once in itunes wont restore or let me back into my ipod. What do i do?

    My ipod touch 4th gen was given to me by a friend. It worked fine until it got the recent update ios6. when i went to install it gave me a black screen that had the connect to itunes symbol.I plugged it in and it instantly told me to restore my ipod. All i want to do is be able to use my ipod again so i said yes. Half way through each time it tells me there  is an error something is not connected or timed out and it stops.I have tried holding down home/sleep button and rebooting but each time it brings me strait back to plug into itunes screen and does not give me slide to shut off option. I have tried plugging it into a different computer (my home and my lap top) i have plugged it into the wall. i have done everything i have seen imaginable.I tried calling apple one guy said he'd help even though it wasnt under warrenty but had to call me back and (surprise) he never did and the second before he would connect me to help said i needed to pay 20 bucks. I dont have the money to do phone service and the genius bar is an hour drive away. Is there anything i can try that i havent yet? Or a way to completely shut it down and turn it on like brand new out of the box? Im really stressing out over this because ive never had to deal with this before. Please help!!

    Temporarily disable your firewall and antivirus software and try again...

  • ITunes Wont Update My iPod Touch Or iPad.

    When I try to restore or update my iPad or iPod touch, iTunes tells me it can't connect to the server. Anyway of fixing this?

    - See if resetting the iPod will allow iTunes to see the iPod so you can restore it if necessary.
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    - Then try recovery mode:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    - Next try DFU mode.

    - If the logo is still showing, then let the battery fully drain. After charging for an hour try above again.

  • Itunes wont restore iphone 4 ios 5

    i have iphone 4 with ios 5 and i am trying to restore my iphone and everytime it gets stuck on the "Preparing Iphone for restore"
    while itunes is doing that on my iphone it shows a loading circle at the bottom for a sec then the loading bar under the apple appears, but then it pops up a error
    please HELP!!!!! ASAP

    Try to put your device in Device Firmware Upgrade (DFU) mode.
    If you were to restore, remember to first back up your phone.
    You can put your device in DFU mode (Device Firmware Update) to flush out the entire of the current firmware and reinstall it with the update file. After you got the update file,
    Charge your phone to a decent battery level
    Connect your phone to a USB port that's fully functional, not one that detects then undetects your device constantly as that's likely to brick your iPhone while it updates
    Hold Power and Home buttons for 10-11 seconds
    After the 10th second or so, let go of the home button, keep holding home for another 10 seconds (Your screen should be black or having an itunes logo)
    iTunes should tell you an iPhone is connected and put in DFU mode, please restore it
    Restore it, it will take much longer than a normal reset and restore because it uploads and rewrites the firmware.
    After everything's done, test it out again.
    Note: if your Music files don't play after the restore, simply uncheck sync music and sync music, after all's done, check and sync it again.
