  • Ipod touch 2g stuck in recovery mode like I have never seen!

    I bought an ipt2 at a pawnshop today as a side project. they said that it was stuck in recovery mode, and I thought it would be an easy fix...
    I have tried recovery restore
    DFU restore
    different computers
    I got it to update to 4.1. but when it was starting up it showed the apple logo for like 2 seconds and then went right back to the connect to pc screen =/
    I am so puzzled!

    Go download RecBoot, kick it in recovery mode and install the firmware manually. You can download it here.

    When you get done upgrading and for some reason you get and error or are stuck in recovery mode, use RB to get out of it. It might still work fine at that point.

  • IPod Touch 4G stuck in recovery mode after trying to update iOS!

    so while trying to update to the newest iOS (6.1), the iPod just went into recovery mode and has been stuck there ever since. When I try restoring it, it always begins "Extracting software.." only to then tell me "The iPod cannot be restored at this time because the iPod software update server could not be contacted or is temporarily unavailable".
    I have tried literally EVERYTHING to restore it but it just won't work!
    Also when I run Diagnostics, everything is fine, except for my iTunes Store connectivity part, where it says that the internet connection failed, even though my Internet works just fine & I can open my browser as well as browse the iTunes Store.
    Someone said to let the iPod drain & then recharge for 1 hour & I'll try doing that now but I don't think it'll help much..
    I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO DO ANYMORE  :-( someone please help!

    Errors 3000-3999 (3004, 3013, 3018, 3164, 3194, and so on): Error codes in the 3000 range generally mean that iTunes cannot contact the update server (gs.apple.com) on ports 80 or 443.
    Update to the latest version of iTunes.
    Verify the computer's date and time are accurate.
    Check that your security or firewall software is not interfering with ports 80 or 443, or with the server gs.apple.com.
    Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
    An entry in your hosts file may be redirecting requests to gs.apple.com (see "Unable to contact the iOS software update server gs.apple.com" above).
    Internet proxy settings can cause this issue. If you are using a proxy, try without using one.
    Test restoring while connected to a known-good network.

  • My ipod touch is stuck in recovery mode..i have tryed eveything,plz help

    Did you try RecBoot, it's supposed to help get you out of recovery mode! I've tried it before....sometimes it works, sometimes it does not work...Hopefully in your case it does.

  • Ipod touch 5g stuck in recovery mode! when connected to itunes and download updates all over again!

    please 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.

  • Ipod touch is stuck in recovery mode with a error code 9

    my ipod touch is stuck in recovery mode and when i try to restore it getting an error code 9

    Error 9: This error occurs when the device unexpectedly drops off the USB bus and communication stops. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB isolation troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

  • My iPod touch is stuck in recovery mode and won't restore?

    Okay my Ipod Touch is stuck in recovery mode and will not restore because "the ipod software update server cannot be contacted". I have tried to restart my computer, restart my ipod, tried different computers, and re-intalled AND updated my itunes and it still will not restore. It is stuck on the picture of the usb cable pointing to itunes and won't do anything else. I'm trying to restore it because my memory was full and I wanted to clean it out and now the ipod is useless, please help me restore it!

    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 touch 4G stuck in recovery mode- it won't even go into DFU

    When I accidentally disconnected my iPod touch 4G during an update yesterday, it automatically went into recovery mode (the screen with the USB cable pointing up towards an iTunes logo). Now it won't turn off, it is recognised by neither my laptop nor by iTunes, it won't even go into DFU, so there's absolutely no way, as far as I can tell, to fix it. I've looked all over the internet, and the only other person I can find who has experienced a similar problem hasn't received an answer in about a year.

  • IPod touch 5g stuck in recovery mode.

    Hi.
    I tried to update the software on my ipod touch 5g, for some reason the connection was lost between the ipod and the PC midway through installing the software on the ipod, now im stuck in recovery mode.
    I keep losing connection between ipod and pc since trying to update the software. Basically the connection is lost then comes straight back.
    My ipod shows the lead with an arrow pointing towards the itunes logo.
    Itunes tells me that im in recovery mode and gives me an option to restore.
    Whenever I have tried to restore it downloads the latest software then nothing happens, just stays in restore mode.
    I have tried putting it into DFU mode but nothing appears to happen after following the steps.
    Really annoying as the next available appointment at the Apple store is on Monday and would like to get it fixed a lot sooner than that if poosible.
    Many Thanks
