Stuck in Restart mode

My iPod froze and I tried to restart it and nothing worked. I plugged it in to my computer and now it is stuck in restart mode and there is an Apple and it's blinking not doing anything.

I have tried everything and nothing seems to be working. Resetting, uninstalling, etc. Now when I plug it in to my computer it says it's in recovery mode and it needs to be restored. When I do that and after it "restores" it says Error 1611....

My (relatively) new MBP is stuck in restart mode. "your computer is already restarting" HELP PLEASE.

I have noticed when I restart my computer, the finder gets stuck and there are no icons on my desktop. If I restart, they will usually come back.
I am still paying off my MBP which cost nearly 2k. I was going to upgrade to Apple Care as soon as it's paid off next month. Unfortunately, the 90 day "complimentary" phone support expired last month and my MBP is now stuck in restart mode. If i click on the keyboard restart button, I get "Your computer is already restarting". It's been like this for 15 minutes so it looks stuck.
Can someone please help?

If I click on itunes or mail, it cancels the restart but still no icons on desktop and still unable to restart or shut down.
Please help, someone. I don't know how to restart this thing...
I'm on Mavericks if that helps (I also had upgraded to Yosemite and had audio interface problems so reverted back to a TM backup which is when this started)
If I attempt the command + R, the computer will make this clicking noise over and over...
It's clearly stuck. What can I do?

Stuck in restart mode because I forgot my ipad passcode

I decided just to restart my ipad but its asking me to put in my pass code which I have forgotten. I followed the instructions by turning off my ipad and using iTunes to factory reset my ipad. However, its not allowing me to do so by saying "its locked with a passcode please try again" Can anyone help?

Read this article and see the sections about using Find My iPhone to restore and unlock the iPad or if that isn't feasible try using Recovery Mode.

IPod stuck in restart mode

I tried to restart my ipod when it was skipping last week and then after I got the apple image the folder came on. It won't restart itself it just keeps cycling through those images. I can't turn the ipod off or do anything. I've tried reloading all of the ipod and itunes software, plugging it into my computer. Have tried restarting it over and over. Charged it multiple times, nothing works. Anyone have any ideas? Or a way I can contact Apple by email? I'm in France for the next few months and can't really call back to the states to be on hold for hours to figure this out. Thanks for the help.

Stuck in restart - how to get out and reboot

I have a MacBook that is stuck in restart mode. Any advice how to get out and restart? Thanks

Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We're all users here.
Try powering off and restarting in 'Safe Mode': The instant you hear the startup tone, hold down the shift key and keep it held down as explained in this Apple support note:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1455
A Safe Mode restart does take much longer than a normal start, because the computer checks the hard drive and ignores cached kernel extensions that normally speed boot-up.
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1884
Note that not all devices and services, notably WiFi, may be available after a Safe Mode start.
This is not necessarily an indication of a hardware error.
After your computer starts in Safe Mode, you should shut down, and attempt to restart normally.

MacBook Pro stuck in sleep mode: can't restart or shut down, black screen

I'm running the latest version of Snow Leopard on my mid-2009 MacBook Pro Unibody. After installing the latest Software Update, including a Firmware update for my SuperDrive, the following problem has occurred, for the very first time:
I closed the lid of my laptop for the night, as I do routinely every night, thus putting my MBP to sleep. I leave the various apps open, usually Firefox, iTunes and Entourage. The next morning my MBP felt hot and the screen remained black... it would not change. After repeatedly trying and failing to clear the black screen and bring my apps up, I held the power button down to do a complete Shut Down. My system turned off, but did not do an actual Shut Down. When I press the power button to turn it on, it comes right back into sleep mode with the screen remaining black. I cannot seem to force either a Shut Down or a Restart. I unplugged all peripherals and the power cord, let my MBP cool down completely--for a couple of hours-- and tried everything again. Still no change: I'm stuck in sleep mode with a black screen. I've also tried resetting the PRAM and the SMC, but neither works, probably because I'm not coming from a Shut Down. Is anybody else having this problem? Anyone have any suggestions? I think the problem must be somehow related to the latest update, but whatever it is, I'd like to resolve it.
Thanks in advance for any help.

I can't get into my system to see my update version, but I'm certain I'm running the most up-to-date version of Snow Leopard and all other latest updates applicable to my mid-2009 MBP, as I run Software Update routinely. I thoroughly completed all update installations, including the SuperDrive Firmware update, followed all instructions meticulously, including rebooting, and actually used my system for at least one full day without any problems. I'd even recently repaired all permissions. Everything was "humming" along very well. This problem came totally out of the blue. Because the screen is black, I can't actually see what's on it; however, I've put my MBP to sleep every night by closing the lid and it awakens in the morning when I raise the lid. This time the sleep light indicator is on, but nothing happens when I lift the lid, touch the track pad or a key. If I hold the power button down briefly, the sleep light goes out, but when I press the power button again, the light comes right back on. If I depress the power button for several seconds, to initiate a shutdown or restart, it simply shuts off the fan and refuses to completely shut down. This is evidenced by the fact that depressing the power button to start up brings the sleep light on very quickly. I can tell by the way the system sounds that it is on behind the blackened screen. Sorry I can't get you the update versions.
Thanks

TS1538 ipod touch is stuck in recovery mode and I have updated itunes and restarted computer and still won't work   HELP

Ipod is stuck in recovery mode I have restarted my computer and I have updated itunes ...Help

Try:
- iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- 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.

IPod stuck in Disk Mode(Restart won't work)

My iPod is stuck in disk mode, and no matter how many times I restart it, it stays in this. I've tried the 5R's and I've tried restarting it. Is there any other fixes?

I know, you have tried a Restart and the 5Rs, but can you try the Hard Reset, as below disconnected from the PC.
After charging till full charge, at least 2 hours (preferably 4 hours)
Toggle the Hold switch, make sure you dont see the red mark when you do the next step
Reset the iPod -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs till the Apple Logo comes ON
Then release the buttons
Select your preferred language.
Here is the Apple support Article on the 5Rs

Well, if you've indeed tried EVERYTHING, then you'll need to bring your phone to Apple for evaluation.

TS3274 My Ipad display is stuck on portrait mode. I tried the toggle switch, turning off and restart and just now backed up into Itunes and restored and still is stuck on portrait mode and it won't flip to landscape mode. Is this a hardware problem?

Has lock rotation been accidentally enabled within the control centre? If you swipe up the screen is there a circle with a lock symbol & if so is is greyed out or white - if white it is enabled.

Mac stuck in safe mode start up loop

Hi everyone,
it seems I have run into a problem and can't find answers online.
First off I have a MacBook intel core duo on the latest snow leopard and mac software is up to date.
It all started when I had to restore my iPhone and it had some problems and got stuck in dfu mode, so when I decided to reboot it I unpluged it and went to reboot and problems started. Finder kept crashing. When I started up in safe mode I decided to save some important files and when I was done the finder problems persisted even while in safe mode. When I rebooted it would start up in safe mode and the loading bar on the bottom would get about a fifth of the way and stop, it would try again and get the as far as before and then shut down.
I tried taking out and putting back in the HD and ram as well as verbose mode. It says
Disk0s2: I/o error
invalid node structure
(8, 12827)
**the volume mac HD could not be verified completely.
/dev/rdisk0s2 (hfs) exited with signal 8
When I decided all was hopeless I tried reinstalling the os but it got stuck on examining additional disks.
If you need any info let me know. HUGE thanks ahead of time as I am writing this from my iPhone 2g and have a useless MacBook and dfu'd iPhone 4.

Restart from your installer disc. Do not run the installer. Instead, from the Utilities menu select Disk Utility & run its Repair Disk step. If it can repair the HD, try reinstalling the OS again. If it cannot, you can try a more powerful (& expensive) disk repair utility like Disk Warrior, which may or may not be able to repair the damage. Otherwise, you will need to reformat the HD (losing all its data) to recover.
You should always have a backup of your data. If you do not, it may be worth gambling on the price of Disk Warrior, but remember that there are no guarantees it can repair the damage.

My MacBook screen is stuck in "presentation" mode after using my "Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter." How can I fix this?

My MacBook screen is stuck in "presentation" mode (I don't know the correct term) after using my Apple Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter - meaning the screen fonts and windows are larger than usual. How can I fix this? I've changed the display settings to modify it a little, but it still doesn't look right. I reinserted the adapter numerous times and restarted my computer, it still hasn't worked. Help!

IPhone 3gs stuck in recovery mode, firmware iO 5

My iPhone is stuck in recovery mode. I have a 3gs, firmware 5.0.
Before I tried to restore it, my iPhone would randomly shut off, turn back on, and display a notification that said "Activation Required." Now, sometimes my phone would shut off again and return to it's previous working state. However, this time it did not. I put the phone into recovery mode and tried restoring it on my Acer Aspire 1 with Windows 7. iTunes put the phone through the various stages of restoration; Extracting Software, Preparing iPhone for Restore, Restoring Software, Verifying Restore, Restoring Firmware. After all of this, a nice little error message pops up that reads, "The iPhone 'iPhone' could not be restored. An unknown error has occured (1)."
After this little mishap occured four more times, I decided to click "More Information," and was promptly brought to the help page set up here. I proceeded to troubleshoot by updating to the latest version of iTunes, updating my security, restarting my computer, and so forth until all the necessary precautions were performed. Now it was back to iTunes to try my luck at getting my life back.
To my delight, I found that this time the restoration process took upwards of forty minutes to complete. However, to my despair, a nice little error message popped up that read, "The iPhone 'iPhone' could not be restored. An unknown error has occured (-1)." Ah, a different error message! i thought, feeling as if there was hope in fixing my phone. I clicked "More Information" and skimmed through the specific error messages, looking for that lucky -1. Nothing.
I need help. I have attempted to restore my phone a dozen times since this occurence, and I'm growing tired of going through the same process over and over and getting the same result. My phone is stuck in recovery mode now. I've tried restoring the phone on 2 different computers, to find out if, in fact, the problem was my iPhone and not my computer.
Some important information you may need to know in order to help me solve my problem:
iPhone 3gs
Running iOS 5.0
Using iTunes 10.5
On an Acer Aspire One Netbook
Running Windows 7
All security updates installed as of November 7, 2011
Also iTunes 10.5 on Acer Aspire 57354774 laptop
Running Windows 7
Reply ASAP with a solution please!

Hello,
I have an iPhone 3GS which I updated with the last firmware (iOS 5) 2 weeks ago. Everything goes ok.
And suddenly, while the phone was recharching. It asked me to activate it but I was unable to do it as it was rebooting constantly every time I connected it to iTunes.
I tried both 2 restore modes (Restore and DFU) but since I can't achieve a restore with the last Apple iOS 5 firmware. I got the error code 1.
I I tried on 3 different computers but same error. I really don't know what to do next...
I already called Apple Customer Care and I'm still waiting for an answer. I let you know.
And you, did you manage to get your iPhone back alive ?
