Ok so. . . . . i got my ipod to go into diagnostic mode and did some test .

yea i got it in diagnostic mode finally but, im on the accessorize test and it says
Please Plug FW
lcd id : 2
fwrpwr : 0
what does that mean? what do i do? plz help.

Firewire is still faster than USB2. I have an external hard drive that has both types. I have tried tansferring the same set of files to and from the drive using both connections and timing the transfers. Firewire was faster. This is Firewire400 not the newer Firewire800 that is definately faster than USB2.

    Update Server
    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

  • Ipod cannot go into recovery mode and I have forgotten passcode. It was halfway through an update and will also not appear as a device in itunes any more

    My sister has forgotten her IPod touch passcode and in my efforts to restore it, I accidentally updated it, leaving it unable to go into recovery mode. It no longer comes onto my devices list on iTunes but asks if I want the computer to read the device, but as I can not unlock it, either option has resulted in nothing. Can anyone help me restore the device? Or at least reset it, as it will not go into recovery mode.

  • My iPod Touch is in Recovery Mode and iTunes Won't Detect It ?

    iPod Touch 4G
    iOS 5.1
    Purchased 2010
    I Opened Up iTunes and Upgraded to iOS 5.1.1 from 5.1 as a "Download Only". The Next Morning I Go To My Computer Plug In My iPod and Update. My iPod Then Goes into Recovery Mode and When I Quit Recovery mode It goes straight to recovery mode again with and without the cable. iTunes does not detect it when i plus it in and neither does my computer, i have tried restarting apple mobile support and that does not work. The nearest apple store is 20 miles but i could go there.

    See if you can kick it out of recovery mode with RecBoot.

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

    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
    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        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
    However, if the iPod is a 5G with iOS 7 snf the persone added their APple ID to Settings>iCloud you will run into the Activation lock
    iCloud: Find My iPhone Activation Lock in iOS 7
    and will have to enter their ID and Password.
    If you are the original purchaser of the iPod and purchased it from Apple directly then Apple MAY be able to help

  • My ipod 5 is in recovery mode and i want me to restore it so i did and now it need to update before it can restore but it keeps asking me to update so im stuck help!!!!!!!!!!!!

    help

    Maybe:
    Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
    Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
    Next try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.
