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.
3. Repeat the process if necessary.

Following updating OS7 I setup a passcode which is not recognised and my ipad is disabled, I tried to restore in itunes but wants me to turn find my ipad off in icloud, which I can't do as ipad is disabled. who do i reset or get back in???

Following updating my ipad2 to OS7 it asked for a passcode which I entered, when I turned the ipad off it requested the passcode but does not recognise the one I (thought) entered , the ipad is disabled. I tried to restore in itunes but wanted me to turn find my ipad off, as I can't get into the ipad i can't do this. Any suggestions as to how I can fix this?

For any of you with a similar problem, apple was able to help, you need to keep the round quite button press in while you connect your cable (which is it self connected to pc itunes) the ipad will then restore. hope this helps

Iphone seems to be working but only shows apple logo, itunes sees the phone normally, when i restored it appeared successful and itunes tried activating my phone but the screen only shows apple logo nothing else???

my iphone is detected in itunes as normal, but screen on the phone only shows apple logo??? restored and everything but no difference its weird, it restores successfully and stuff but once done the screen only shows apple logo.. note:while restoring everything goes through as normal on the phone it shows the bar loading etc.. but once complete just stays on apple logo.

It can take a few minutes to reinitialize, but if it stays on the Apple logo for as much as 10 minutes there is something seriously wrong. Try restoring again, and set up as a new phone rather than installing your backup. If this fixes it you have a corrupt backup. If this doesn't fix it the phone is broken. Or possibly jailbroken.

IPOD Touch only shows apple logo and computer will not recognize IPOD in iTunes or on my Mac. Cannot restore.

My IPOD Touch 3G is frozen on the apple logo. It will allow me to reset it. The computer no longer will recognize it. I have tried on several Macs and it seems as though the problem is with the IPOD and not the computer since none of my MACs will recognize it.

You can try to put it on Recovery mode then restore it..
Press or Hold the power and home keys 10 seconds.
Screen goes black, now release the power button
Make sure you do not release the Home key until
your iTunes says "We have detected an itouch
in recovery mode."
After this its simple all you
got to do is a simple restore using your iTunes

What should I do when my iPhone is in recovery mode, I'm trying to restore, and it's stuck at the "Waiting For iPhone" stage??

I dropped my iPhone on the ground, and as I went to pick it up, I started to swear under my breath as I realized my iPhone was in recovery mode. I'm like "how would an iPhone be this sensitive -_-," and so as my iPhone's docked unto my laptop, and with relentless attempts to restore my iPhone, I always find iTunes stuck at the "Waiting For iPhone" stage and I honestly have no clue what to do at this point. What should I do to bypass this or fix this problem? Or do I just wait? -_-

Nothing except that when I turn it on, there's a USB cable and an iTunes logo above it, indicating that it's in recovery mode.

Is it smart to buy the ipad 2 now or should i wait for the ipad 3

I have the ipad 1, and have been looking to upgrade, i like apple, as i have bought almost all of their products and was wondering if it wwould be worthy to buy the ipad2 or wait for ipad3?

Apple's pattern has been to announce new iPad models in March. Whether or not they will hold to that pattern no one here can say, but unless you're desperate to upgrade right now, I see no harm in waiting a couple of weeks and see if the rumors about the next release are true and Apple keeps to the pattern.
Regards.

TS3694 Phone is only showing apple logo over & over again.. While in recovery mode, restoring in iTunes ended up getting error "2001" I've tried to see if I had the up-to-date iTunes software (11.0.1) & i do.

I'm having an issue with my phone not wanting to restore. It was perfectly fine yesterday then it wouldn't turn on ( so I assumed that I had maybe resetted the phone) while trying to seperate my animals. I can get to the connect to iTunes screen, but after I downloaded the iPhone software to be installed, let it run it's course, and then went home. I had to get back to the connect to iTunes screen so I got back to that screen to hopefully install the software and instead I ended up getting "error 2001", looked at Apple's resolutions for that specific error and found that my iTunes is in fact up to date. I don't know where to go from here. Please help!

I'm adding more information:
in Finder, my iMovie folders are all visible and accessible. When I click on a clip from iMovie Events folder, Quicktime opens and plays the clip. ALL my video is not missing - it just isn't showing up in the Event Library!
This happened all of a sudden, while I was working on iMovie project (on both computers).
All my Projects are intact, and play when I open them.

Ipad won't start; trying to restore thru itunes, but get the message - can't restore because ipad is not set up. It was set up and has been in use for about a year. What do I do now?

I Have seen people report this issue when they try to sync their devices but in never seen it when trying to restore an unresponsive iPad. I would sguggest trying recovery mode now.
If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
This procedure will totally erase the iPad so I hope that you have a backup that you can restore from....assuming that it works, that is.

HT201412 My Ipad is not responding. It has the small apple in the middle of the screen with the little "thinking" flower symbol surrounding it, and does not respond to restoring. We received an error message when trying to restore from itunes.

What to do now when my iPad won't turn on after I turn it off. It shows only the apple logo. I am sure it has above 70% charge as when I sync my iPad it shows necessary detail in iTunes. I have tried, HOME & POWER button, but did not work.

I have a MBP running 10.6.8 and after the recent iOS update I have not been able to sync my devices. I was able to sync an ipod, but not iphone or ipad. iTunes recognizes my devices, but sync button stays grayed.

I have a older MBP running 10.6.8 and after the recent iOS update I have not been able to sync my devices. I was able to sync an ipod, but not iphone or ipad. iTunes recognizes my devices, but sync button stays grayed. I've changed my USB hub, reinstalled iTunes and run disc cleanup. No luck.

You said that your computer will sync other iPods? Are they iPod touches? Other iPod use different drivers the the touch And iPhone and iPad).
You can try:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
Does it charge? Does the iPod work?
I would try on another computer.
Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
If defective and not abused you will walk out with a replacement

Hey jtom234412,
Thanks for the question. Based on the information you have provided, it sounds like your device is not detected in iTunes for Windows. The following resource may help resolve this issue:

Furthermore, if your device is in recovery mode (displaying an iTunes symbol, with a plug), see the relevant information under Step 5.
Thanks,
