I was updating my daughters ipad last night to the latest operting system, when finished it came up with an error message, her ipad then went blank and came up with the picture to connect to itunes. But when I connect to itunes it comes up with the error message "itunes has detected an ipad in recovery mode. You must restore this ipad before it can be used with itunes" - can someone help with how I can do this
Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

please help me what do i do?You have to restore the iPod, no ifs, ands, or buts...
After iOS is installed you will be asked if you what to set it up as a new iPod or if you want to restore from a backup.
If you have a good backup you can restore that and you're good to go.
If you don't have a good backup, then you end up with a "clean" iPod.... -
when i pluged my ipod classic 5g to PC then it shows “iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode. you must restore this iPod before it can be used with iTunes”?then after restoring the PIOD when IPod restarted then Itunes again detect the same ERROR.
If you are using XP, and you went through the procedure at the bottom of the previously linked document to change the iPod's assigned drive letter, and you also tried putting it into Disk Mode...
If you have not already, try shutting down your computer and disconnecting all USB devices, including hub. Start up with only standard keyboard and mouse connected. Just to be safe, put the iPod into Disk Mode again

Run iTunes. Connect iPod to a direct USB port on computer. iTunes may prompt you about "recovery" and ask you to do a Restore. Try to do a Restore again. -

I'm having the same loop message appear when trying to sync my new Ipod Shuffle "Itunes has detected a device in recovery mode. You must restore this device before it can be used w/ Itunes".
I've restored several times but it keeps looping back to the same message. Turns out this message appeared with my last shuffle and I thought possibly the shuffle battery was depleted and it was time to get a new one.
any suggestions?If you restore from backup.
You should have made sure that everything was on your computer bef ore updating anyway. Did you fail to do that?
All pics taken with iphone should be imported to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera, most especially before any update/restore/etc. Did you fail to do that? -

These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. Follow Troubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
Error 1604
This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode, put it into Recovery Mode.
Restore and wait for the error.
When prompted, click OK.
Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
Try to restore again.
If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.
Error 1600, 1601, 1602
Follow the steps listed above for Error 1604. This error may also be resolved by disabling, deactivating, or uninstalling third-party security, antivirus, and firewall software. See steps in this article for details on troubleshooting security software.

Am trying to sync my 3gs to itunes,keeps coming up with a notice saying! iphone in recovery mode. Must restore the iphone before it can be used with itunes.
Am really worried about doing this as the phone came with a note enclosed saying "Do NOT restore or update iphone software on itunes when asked to otherwise unlock will be lost"
Is it safe for me to restore or will it block my phone?
Can anybody help me please?Sounds like you purchased a phone that was hacked to run on a network other than the one it was originally locked to.
Where, exactly did you get this phone? If it's already in a state where it says it must be restored, you don't have a choice. If the phone was hacked, it will be re-locked to the network it was originally locked to. ONLY the carrier it is locked to can legitimately authorize unlocking the phone. -
Iphone4s was charging and now stuck in recovery mode and wont restore
can anyone help (with ways to fix this issue other than the 1's ive already tred) I was charging my phone and when i went to get off off charge it was dead and only displayed the itunes connect image. I have tried to restore it and when i connect it to itunes it displays this message 'itunes has detected an iphone in recovery mode. you must restore ths iphone before it can be used with itunes' so i tried to restore it may times now but get so far and then have an error message. Ive had error 1611, error 21 error 1611 again and error 21 a further 4 times. I have also been to the apple store and made an appointment with the so called geniuis people however after 4 and a half hours waiting to be seen did they take my phone out the back then over 15 mins later the chap dealing with me came back saying ' WHEN DID YOU HAVE A NEW SCREEN FITTED' I replied 2/3 months ago as i dropped it on my table and the screen cracked so i took it to a phone repair shop and paid £105 to have it replaced and my phone was working fine after I wasnt aware that the warranty covered you for a cracked screen that you was caused because you dropped it accedentaly etc.... well any way tghe chap then said ' I can t help you any further as you need to go back to the shop who changed the screen and get them to resolve this isssue. I asked how on earth can a new sceen fitted cause my phone to go in to recovry mode (2/3 months after the screen was replaced mind) the reply i got was ' Its not my issue its out of my hands........' I was more than tamping, raging fuming leaving there as no advice was given to rectifiy the issue i have with my phone. The following morning i went straight to the shop that replaired/replaced my cracked screen and told them what apple had said to me and that i was to come back to yourselves as you need to rectify the issue? to say the repair guy was baffled is an understatement but in fairness at least he tried to help me and attempted to restore it on itunes 6 times in total and changed the battery to a brnd new 1 plus checked the charging port to make sure this was not faulty. after all his help he was still baffled as to why apple felt its his fault after replacing a cracked screen as the error codes being displayed clearly were a software issue not an issue caused by replacing the crakced sceen'
I was more than happy to pay apple and charges to fix my phone based on the fact my warranty was now null and void (which is pathetic as the replacement screen was an apple origianl replacement screen it was just fitted by someone else whom is qualifed to do so) but wasnt even given the option to pay for any repairs etc.....they simply blamed someone else and offer me no further help.
so a week later after this first hapen to my phone whilst on charge and i still in the same boat and have run out of things to try (which was all found by using google as apple support secton is a load of fresh air and doenst actually give you the info and help your need.
Im grateful of any help that can be offered.Sorted it now, took it to Apple store and explained etc. was nothing could do but restore the phone. Was told to make sure itunes on PC was up-to-date version before updating iphone which could have caused the error.

After updating to ios 7, I am now asked to enter my password continuously when accessing my emails on outlook web access. Before I just had to log in and I was able to reply, save emails, etc without re entering my password. How do I fix this?
Similar thing is happening to a relative.
He upgraded his iPhone 5 and lost his iCloud account and all his email accounts. Major pain in the neck for a senior. And it was not a user error...unless you count the fact that he hit the upgrade button. -
This morning the Iphone prompted me to update software. After that it said my phone was in recovery mode and I had the restore my phone. Now most of the apps are muted and don't respond, help!
First, in iTunes, launch Preferences and go to the Devices tab. Check the date and time of the last backup. If it is recent you can restore it. However, if you mean you have the photos back in your Camera Roll then the backup was already restored. To get your music and apps back it should just be necessary to click "Sync".
