Tried to update to IOS8, failed, Ipad now wants to restore but immediately tries to download IOS8 again its not working!

Hello
Tried to update to IOS8 last night, backed up Ipad and downloaded IOS8.
It failed to update properly and ONLY gives me the option to restore the Ipad, it won't turn on I have to plug it into Itunes.
When I plug it in and go to restore it immediately prompts the following:
Then:
I click "Restore and Update"
I click next
I agree.
The download starts (weirdly its very slow) during the download I keep getting the first message. A few clicks and the box disappears and eventually the software is downloads (see below).
But it won't allow me to update / restore etc It cycles around these messages.
HELP - I have no idea what to do.
Many Thanks
MT

I have much the same problem although my Ipad 2 says its in recovery mode. I have tried to restore and update repeatedly but nothing is happening.

    You will need to restore the software via the following procedure:
    Turn your device off and connect your cable to the computer, but not the device just yet. Start up iTunes. Now, hold down the home button on your device and plug it in to the cable - don't let go of the button until iTunes tells you it's detected a device in recovery mode. Now you can restore to factory settings.

    The latest iWork '09.2 requires 10.7 Lion. You can go onto eBay and get the '09.0 or the '08 version which will work with 10.4. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IWork

    hi April!
    just doublechecking something. is the download hanging at the initial phase of proceedings? or is this happening after the installation has actually pretty much completed?
    if it's at the later stage of proceedings, are you getting a sort of "brief flash of a license screen? or is something else a little different happening?
    love, b

  • 7.1.2 update failed. Now my iPhone 5 is in recovery mode and hard resetting does not work for me. iTunes also will not detect my phone now

    I did my 7.1.2 update via iTunes. Half way through it stopped working saying it does not detect my phone. Now my iPhone 5 is in recovery mode and hard resetting does not work for me. iTunes also will not detect my phone now

    Thank you SO very much for posting this. I had the exact issue with my iPad Mini after the same upgrade. Hard reset failed, computer would not recognize iPad. I had read all the other instructions and nothing worked.... YOUR SOLUTION WORKED FOR ME - with a slight variation.
    I followed your lead and connected my iPad Mini to another computer, fired up iTunes, it saw the iPad Mini in Restore Mode and allowed me to go into Restore (yes, it wiped all of the data but I have a back up on the other computer that would not see it after the failed update). It installed the latest iOS 7.1.2 as well. I then disconnected it from that computer, reconnected it to the computer that would not see it prior and it then saw it as a new iPad and allowed me to Restore my backup and now it's all good!
    I detailed my steps only because you downloaded the previous version - 7.1.1 whereas I downloaded the latest version (7.1.2) and then restored my back up.

  • I'm not very techy, so be gentle! i am using midvd app to burn home movies to dvd from iMovie '11 version 9.0.9. It now burns the dvd but there is nothing on the disc. its not recognised by the iMac or any other dvd player.

    I was using midvd app(i never had idvd) to make home movies on dvd from imovie '11 version 9.0.9 with no problems before xmas 2013. ive just tried to make a new one today and it wont work.
    It seems to burn to the dvd (you can see a mark on the back of the dvd as if it has some info on it) but it wont play on imac (just says blank disc) or any other dvd player.
    I have tried reinstalling midvd app and also tried 2 other dvd creator apps and the same thing happens the app says its burning and the external superdrive whirs like its doing something but it wont play.
    The only thing i have done since xmas is all the updates to the operationg system and updated imovie (i didnt like the new version so went back to using the previous one)
    Any ideas - i am new to all things mac!

    When you export your movie from iMovie, are you choosing H.264? That is the only compression method supported by this miDVD. Youc an give this a try first:
    Use Share > Export to Quicktime > Movie to Quicktime Movie > choose Options and then make your choices in Settings, etc (you can choose whatever size your video is - mine was 720 HD at that time):
    If that does not work, I'd suggest going to their support site as they claim to be able to burn to DVD.... I just checked their site and here is their list of supported file types:

  • Trying to download 9i for MacOSX not working

    I fill out the appropriate page and accept the licence agreement. I get to the page where the 9i download for MacOSX is, but then I'm instantly redirected back to the agreement page. There is no chance to even click on the link to download the database. What's going on with this?

    Hi,
    Can you let us know what OS and browser you are using. Can you try an alternate browser and let us know if you experience the same behavior? With win2k and ie6 or ns4.79 it seems to work fine.
    Thanks,

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
    If you've already tried a complete uninstall and reinstall try opening iTunes in safe mode (hold down CTRL+SHIFT as you start iTunes) then going to Edit > Preferences > Storeand turning off Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases. You may find iTunes will now start normally.

          Updated Scrabble on my iPad, now it crashes when I open. How do I fix, without losing games I am playing now?

    I have a similar issue.  I have the CS4 Design Premium with all updates on an iMac running 10.6.  All Adobe apps work except for Flash 10.0.2.566.  All apps worked perfectly under 10.5.  Within seconds of loading a file or clicking 'New' Flash terminates generating an Apple crash report (see exerpt below) - not an Adobe crash report.

    Exception Codes: KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE at 0x0000000000000004

    (BTW, sometimes a normal Quit is interpreted as a crash by the other CS4 apps.  Could this be related?)

  • I backed up my Iphone to itunes so i can do the new Update to IOs 7 and so now that i updated it i want to backup and restore and its not working, Please help!

    An iPhone backup to a computer via iTunes stores the photos in a backup file that is only meant to be be used if needed to restore back to the phone. There is 3rd party "extractor" software available but otherwise the photos are not directly viewable.
    The backup via iTunes was a good idea and your Camera Roll photos should be there and should be able to be restored to your new phone. However if it was me I wouldn't rely on that alone. I would also import the photos to a computer where you can see and verify that you have a copy. That is a good idea at any time (not just when you know you might need it). Any phone can be lost, broken, suffer hardware issues, etc at any time and lose all data on it. Following is a link with information on how to import the photos to a computer:  Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or Windows PC - Apple Support

  • HT2404 why is os X update taking so long I tried to download it and would not finish.

    why is os X update taking so long I tried to download it and would not finish downloading..

    It's been a few days since the original post.  If you use Software Update again now, do you still have this problem?
    Also, what is the name and version number of the update?  If you can't get Software Update to do it for some reason, you can search for that update on Apple Support, then download and install it manually.
    Before you do that, run Disk Utility (which is on Applications/Utilities).  Select "Macintosh HD" in the sidebar and go to the First Aid tab.  Click Verify Disk.  This will check to make sure there is nothing is wrong with your startup disk.  If there is a problem reported, that may be causing the problem with Software Update.
