You may need to try this More than Once... Be sure to Follow ALL the Steps...
Take your time... Pay particular attention to Steps 3 and 4.
After you have Recovered your Device...

During the updation of 10.7 version of Itunes on my iphone 4s, my phone has gone into recovery mode & is not showing up in i Tunes nor in my computer (windows xp). What shall i do so that my phone gets connected & running??
Your iPhone is in recoverty mode at the moment so to possibly get it back up and running you would need to do a restore as you have been trying. Follow the steps in the article below for the specific error messages you have been receiving. If after following all steps the issue remains book an appointment at a local Apple Retail Store to have the iPhone evaluated.

I have attempted to update my iPhone to ios8. My phone has gone into recovery mode. I have tried all of your recommendation and it will not come out of recovery mode. HELP!
Without knowing what you did and exactly what happened (error messages) all I can suggest is:
Try:
- 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 another cable
- 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.

my phone has gone into recovery mode on its own. says to connect to itunes. i have restored it 10 times and it does nothing please help me i am out of the country and desparate
Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer. If the iPhone is recognized in Recovery Mode, then Restore the Firmware. If not recognized, then hold both Home and Power Buttons until the iPhone is recognized in Recovery Mode. Usually takes about 20 seconds of holding both buttons. Restore the iPhone Firmware.

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 -

Ohareehoh,
If the Zen Micro is clicking at the point you are describing, then it sounds like the Hard Dri've has been damaged and you are physically hearing the clicking of the dri've. I would suggest contacting support for repair options.

I plugged my iphone 3gs into itunes yesterday and it started to update the software - presumabley to 10.5? - came back to it an hour later and it was displaying an image of a usb cable and itunes symbol which i now undertand means its gone into recovery mode.
I tried to restore it to the factory settings as advised but it won't work. Its telling me "This device could not be restored, it is not eligible for the requested build"
Please help - this phone is not jailbroken!Ok, after 2 nights searching forums and trying different things I have managed to find a solution. I had to add a '# ' at the begining of the host directory. This means nothing to me and I had to follow the steps in the following link but it worked perfectly -

My ipad has gone into recovery mode after an "error occured" whilst trying to update it. Will it come out of recovery on it's own? There is a lot of data I want to save before restoring it to factory settings
FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
1. Turn off iPad
2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
5. Release Home button.
ON COMPUTER
6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
7. Select "Restore iPad"...
Note:
1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
2. You must follow step 1 to step 4 VERY CLOSELY. -

My less than 2 week old iPhone 5 has gone into recovery mode... I've been trying to restore all day using itunes but just as the restore is about to finish, error 21 comes up. My phone is essential for work and this has caused me endless problems today. I am disgusted with this, I need a reliable phone. Please someone help me get it working again?!
Error 20, 21, 23, 26, 28, 29, 34, 36, 37, 40
These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service. -

In order to use your phone again, you will need to restore it. No backup, no data will return.

Is there any way to retrieve photos from a 5c that has gone into recovery mode?
is there any way to retrieve photos from a 5c that has gone into recovery mode?
No, by the time its in recovery mode it's too late. The contents of the phone are gone. Did enable any of the ways that Apple provides to back up photos?
Backup the phone to your computer
Automatic daily iPhone backup to iCloud
enable Photo Stream
Copy photos to your computer using a USB cable and a compatible photo management utility on your computer
Enable Photo Sharing
Enable Photo Library backup
OR any of the 3rd party photo management solutions, such as Google Picasa, Google+, Facebook, Shutterfly?
OR any of the cloud sharing services such as box.com or dropbox?
If you have set up any one of these your photos can be retrieved from it.
