Take 2 update, restore

Has anyone tried restoring after the Take 2 update? I would like to know if it reverts back to 1.0, or does the restore get an update too?

looks like you can:

Can't Update/Restore

When trying to update my iPhone 6 Plus through iTunes, the download would take hours, half a day usually. At the end of every download, this would always fail stating "the file was corrupted during download". Since updating/restoring my iPhone 6 Plus would take so long and always inevitably fail, I decided to download the 8.12 IPSW for my 6 Plus. Why trying to shift-click update/restore, another error has come up. "This firmware file is not compatible". How can I fix this? Am I just not supposed to update at all now? Where is Apple's mind?

My iPod works again. Yay.

Besweet, I'm having the very same problem with 60GB colour which was bought new and worked for 6 months before suddenly just not being recognised by PC. I hadn't changed anything at all.
I've followed all troubleshooting advice and reinstalled and updated iTunes and iPod updater software but all troubleshooting routes seem to hit the dead end of either the need to access the iPod via the PC (which isn't possible as it's not showing up at all) or the iPod in disc mode stuck at "ok to disconnect".
It's still under 1yr warranty so will have to take to a dealer.
I'm sorry that's not much help for you but at least you know it's not a unique problem.

Hi there owain11,
It looks like that particular error may be realted to a hardware issue. Take a look at the article below for more information.

I am unable to update/restore my iPhone on my MacBook after attempting to downgrade iTunes 10 to iTunes 9.2

I am unable to update/restore my iPhone on my MacBook after attempting to downgrade iTunes 10 to iTunes 9.2. I am currently running iTunes 10 on my MacBook right now because it was my only option to get iTunes back on my MacBook. Everything is fine with syncing my device but the only problem I keep encountering is the restoring and updating options. When I restore my device it tells me that It could not be restored at this time. When I update it, iTunes tells me that it cannot complete the current build. I know for a fact I am missing some files that were deleted when I attempted the downgrade. Anybody know what files I am currently missing that is causing this?

Ipod wont update, restore, WORK!!??

hi everyone, my ipod's been playing up, its the second time this has happened, the last time i managed to sort out the problem but it was an accident! It started off by suddenly deleting all the songs in my ipod, they're still in my library but wont update onto my ipod, saying there is not enough memory. I have tried resetting, and then update/restoring but I keep getting a range of different error messages from "Internal error" to "formatting failure" i have searched through all the discussions on here but none have helped!! the ipod updater i downloaded seems to disappear on my computer leaving one from jan06, which is obviously out of date. PLEASE HELP!!!!
thanks xxx

You've seen this?
Internal manager error.
If after trying all else, you could try a format of the iPod in Windows. A full format does a check and remap of bad sectors on the iPod hard drive, and you would need to restore the iPod as normal (using the iPod updater) afterward. This can also work when the iPod is recognized by the computer, but not by the updater.
First, put the iPod into forced disk mode.
See: How to put the iPod into disk mode.
On your PC, go "my computer" and right click on the iPod, then choose "format". Ensure the settings are at "default" and that "quick format" is not checked. Now select "format". It will take a while, but when that's finished, restore the iPod using the updater.
If you need to, reset the iPod to exit disk mode.

I am having trouble with resetting my ipad mini. I have been having it on reset for 2 hours already and its still on the same spot and not moving anywhere. How long does it usually take to restore settings?

Anyone having same issue as mines please help me put. I am having trouble with resetting my ipad mini. I have been having it on reset for 2 hours already and its still on the same spot and not moving anywhere. How long does it usually take to restore settings? And how can i exot put of ot from restoring anymore?

This is how you Reset - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

4.3.3 **LOCKED* Rogers iPhone 3GS, updated + restored to 4.3.5 with Rogers SIM in, "SIM card not supported"...

Hey guys....
I just recently encountered a strange issue which no makes sense.
I have a 16GB Black iPhone 3GS **LOCKED** to Rogers, never been unlocked, was given to me by Apple as a replacement.
It was on 4.3.3 and was getting a little slow so I decided to do an update + restore to 4.3.5.
After the restore and update, iTunes gave me the "the SIM card inserted into this phone does not appear to be supported" error... so I can't get past the emergency call screen.
I tried restoring in DFU and with diff comps PLUS diff Rogers SIM cards and no dice.
Also tried restoring with/without SIM card in during restore.
Any ideas on how this has happened and how I can fix it?
It's no longer under warranty so I know I can't go to the Genius Bar, even though technically it's their faulty phone...

I would still take it to the Genius Bar and see what they say. Worst case scenario, since it's out of warranty, they'll offer you an out of warranty exchange, which will roughly be 200 Canadian dollars.

IPod 5th Gen: no photos/videos tab, Update & Restore buttons grayed out

Hi, I've got a PowerBook G4 667 DVI with a Macally cardbus USB 2.0 adaptor. I also have a sorta new 5th Gen 60GB iPod (bought Oct 2006). Using OS X 10.4.8 and iTunes 7.0.2.
I've already reinstalled the OS and iTunes a couple of times. No luck yet.
Since day 1 with this iPod, I've had these problems (using both USB 1 and 2):
(1) The photos and videos tabs do not appear in the iPod pane. (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302583 is useless, as is the article it points to.)
(2) The update and restore buttons are always grayed out. The iPod came PC formatted. In order to Mac format it, I tried everything, struck out with tech support on the phone, and finally had to take it to the Apple store. It worked, restored, and reformatted fine on their iMac. Took 5 minutes. But still, with my computer, I still have the same problem.
(3) Whenever the iPod syncs, I get the following error message:
"Some of the items in the iTunes library were not copied to the iPod because your iPod software is too old. Go to the Summary tab and click Update," yada yada.
But I can't, since Update is always grayed out. The result is that none of my iTMS purchases will sync. All my mp3s and non-FairPlay music syncs fine. My computer is registered, and I do buy/download without problems. Maybe the iPod doesn't know what account it's linked to?
(4) Not a problem, but perhaps a cue to the cause of the others: in the Summary tab, software version and serial number are both "n/a".
Any ideas? I'm out of ideas.
Thanks.

After about a month of not using my 5th generation iPod, I connected it to the computer... only to be greeted by the wrong icon for the iPod itself and iTunes no longer recognizing it as a 5th generation iPod. The update/restore buttons are also greyed out, and no amount of restoring on different machines and updating and reapplying OS software seems to make a difference.
You are not alone on this one. I am at a loss as to what to do software wise, since it used to work just fine.

IPod cannot be updated/restored/ejected--files in use by another app

Since I downloaded iTunes7, I cannot update, restore, or eject my iPod from iTunes. I get the error "<iPod name> cannot be updated(restored, ejected) because it contains files in use by another application." I'm still able to sync music and tv shows with the old iPod software, but not movies. I eject it using the Safely Remove Hardware icon in my system tray, or from My Computer. I've tried disabling security programs and peripherals, and even sifting through the processes in Task Manager. I had no trouble ejecting prior to iTunes 7/7.0.1.
And yes, I've done the R's I'm able to do (Restore is not an option due to the nature of the error).

Hi again, Corey!
In regard to "recovery mode" message, you'll most likely just need to restore your iPod. For more details, read here -> Restoring your iPod
If this message persists after restoring your iPod, try assigning your iPod a different drive letter; see these steps below:
Log off of any other users on your computer.
1 - Don’t plug in your iPod yet.
2 - Go to "START -> Control Panel -> Admin Tools (if you don't see this, click on "classic view" button on the left panel) -> Computer Management."
3 - Click on the "Disk Management" button in the left panel area.
4 - Now, with "Computer Management" and Control Panel windows opened, reset your iPod, and connect it.
5 - Right-click on your iPod's listing there (after a few moments when it gets recognized in this drive window), and click on "Change Drive letter and Paths". Then the "Change..." button.
Here's what it should look like:
Assign your iPod the letter "M" "N", "O" or the like (further along in the alphabet).
For more details, see this article:
Windows confuses iPod with network device / Changing drive letter
I hope this helps you!

Can't Update/Restore/Use my iPod!!

My iPod worked, with all my music, it updated and everything. Then I put iPod Linux on it, and it worked just fine, but then I tried to update it, and it gave me the error message: An error occurred while trying to update/restore iPod. So I uninstalled iPod Linux, and tried again. Same error. So I tried to restore it. Same error. So I reformatted it in Disk Utility as a Mac OS Extended (Journaled). It still didn't let me update or restore it. I unplugged it and it gave me the folder/go to Apple/Support/iPod thing. I plugged it back in and iTunes opened and treated me like a person who just bought the iPod. It downloaded all my music onto the iPod. I unplugged it, and it still gave me the go to Apple iPod Support. So now my iPod has all my music on it, is formatted as Journaled Mac OS Extended, and doesn't work.
Help!!

My iPod works again. Yay.

My ipod says it's up to date, but it's not and I can't update/restore

Itunes updated to 7.0.2 and I can load up my own CDs onto my ipod nano. I can buy new tunes on the internet and they load into my itunes library but the purchased tunes don't load onto my ipod - I keep getting a error message that my ipod software is out of date. I've tried uninstalling itunes but keep having the same problem. My ipod preferences page tells me I have software version 5.1 on the ipod. I can see the buttons for update/restore, but this whole section is grayed out and the buttons don't work. What can I do?

When you come back, try this.
Click on control panel/admin tools/computer management/disk management/right click on the iPod to re-assign the drive letter.
Choose something lower down the alphabet, say 'M' or something similar.
The iPod can be confused by any other storage devices assigned a similar drive letter even though they may not connected at the same time.
If the device manager is empty, see this: iPod not appearing in Windows device manager.
It's a long shot but worth a try.

IPod updater/restore proble w/ latest 2006-06 version - FIXED

Alright kids peep this!
Background- have a Gateway 506GR running Winblows XP Home. Nothing special on it except I use both XPlay 2.0 and iTunes. Everything runs dandy. I have had 2 iPod Mini and a friend has a first gen Ipod U2 version. Updated them, restored them all gravy. Again, no probs...
SO, the wife gets a an iPod Nano... thats when the problems start kicking in. Plug it in and it says we need to update to the 2006-06 updater. Cool. I did it with my Mini so I think this will be easy breazy... WRONG. Muf*cking Nano keeps freezing up. Updater freezes up, restore has no chance. Seems that something is fouling up the system here. Also get the error that cannot write to drive "G", the nano removable drive, sweet!
I uninstall EVERYTHING - iTunes, updaters, XPlay, start up PC in safe mode, turn off firewall (ZoneAlarm), disable virus, remove MusicMatch... nothing. Tried to do the update /restore by manually putting the Nano in Disk Mode and still nada. Oh yeah, took it to the Apple "Guru's at the Stanford store and ValleyFair in SJ and they have NO CLUE. They try some simple fixes and of course get nowhere. They just end up giving me another. I went through 2 this way.
I got real desperate now. I search Google and found this - http://screwdave.blogspot.com/2006/05/ipod-nano-updater-3-23-really-needs.html and of course no dice there either. Maybe it will work for you.
OK, FINALLY peep out DSLreports, the cats there are freaking real GURUS man, and found some guy with the same issue as me. The guy tried EVERYTHING the forum was throwing his way and he had no luck. One casually mentions that he may have a power supply issue regarding the USB 2.0 ports on his PC. "Hmmmmmm", I think that this is just stupid enough to work. I go to Radio Shack and buy a crappy $20 USB 2.0 hub with an external power supply and plug it in. Removed iTunes, all the updaters, and Xplay and start from scratch. Re-install iTunes 6.0.4.2 and use update 2006-03, then re-install XPlay 2.9. Plugin the Nano and Whamo! it freaking works. Sweet.

Same thing happened to me (well my 30gb video iPod XD) And to a lot of people, apparently. My iPod has been comatose (I REFUSE to say it's dead) since Monday after the iPod Update. It's NEVER had problems before, so I lay the blame on the Update. It took forever to "update" (I had it in for hours) and when I finally dced it (prematurely apparently?? I don't know how leaving it in a couple hours and then taking it out makes it premature but okay iPod Updater...) it flashed to the Apple screen, which I then reset, and now it's in its comatose state
I have really nothing to contribute but to say it's happened to me, too XD I've had no luck at other threads so if anyone could help, it would be much appreciated Thanks

Help please: Update/restore iPhone 4

Hi all,
I just managed to solve the problem of iTunes store not showing up in iTunes (by removing and installing everything) only to run in to the next problem.
I have just got an iPhone 4.
I configured it (now that iTunes kindly show me the pages) and I see that there is a new update for my phone.
I download it and want to update it.
The update gets stuck in the middle. No responce from phone since yesterday.
I have tried to reset the phone, reboot PC etc. and when I now connect my iPhone, I get a pop up that the phone has to be restored. Okay, I do that, it downloads the update, prepare to install, everything looking fine... but it gets stuck in the middle of the update.
So, basically, phone not working, dead, update/restore gets stuck.
Im going on holiday on Friday and had planned everything to have my iPhone with me. I so regret that I updated the phone just now
System:
Windows XP, latest version of iTunes, all updates for windows installed, etc.
Tried closing down virus scanners, firewalls, etc, no luck, still stuck...
So if anyone could point me to some sollution I will be very happy.
Thanks in advance for the help.

Tried all this, no luck:
Turned off all USB devices, rebot -> restore -> frozen
Downloaded an earlier version of the update and try to do a shift/restore in iTunes. No luck.
Note:
The restore is 682 MB large file. This file it loaded the very first time I pressed the update button in iTunes.
Nothing more I can do really. Gona have to give it back and get a new. And no iPhone on the holiday meh..
PS: No, it is not jailbroken. it is brand new.

Take 2 update, restore
