Hey saandyy,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
You can try to restart the iPhone to exit recovery mode.
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset

If you can't update or restore your iOS device
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
Recovery mode erases your device and restores it, which should resolve the issue. If you previously synced with iTunes or iCloud, you may be able to restore from your backup after recovery.
Have a nice day,
Mario

Hi MNSDALC,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If iTunes is quitting unexpectedly, this article is a good guide for troubleshooting:

I downloaded an app on my PC, signed into my iTunes account, but when I connect my iPhone and click sync, it won't copy to my phone. How can I get this app to install on my phone?
Your phone connected, iTunes running, under the "Apps" tab, you've selected this app to install on your phone, correct? Hit the "Apply/Sync" button, lower right on the Apps tab, what happens?

When I click on songs I purchased. I get message that "song could not be used because original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?"
I used to be able to play them, What do I do?It means the media is not where iTunes expects it to be.
iOS devices are not and have never been backup devices.
Are the files in question still on the computer?
If not, you should restore them from the backup of the computer. You do have a backup, correct? -
I have just update my iPhone 5 to iOS 7, everythings gone smooth, however, when I plug my phone to my desktop, window xp, I can only see the photos that I took this morning, over 2000 photos in my phone can not be seen right now, can anyone help?
Try to connect in recovery mode to restore, without using the latest backup, explained here:
iOS: Unable to update or restore -
I can no longer import pictures to my ibook (OSX version 10.6.8) using iphoto 09 version 8.1.2 and now get message that file is in an unrecognizable format. What is wrong? Same camera as before.
Julesvernet
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there? -
Even though there are over 200 photos on my ipad, after trying both methods of importing and connecting with a lead, a message appears saying that there are no photos on this device. Any ideas?
Did you connect your iPad to your computer then open the application on your computer that transfers photos from a camera? Your computer should recognize the iPad as a camera. All photos in the Camera Roll on the iPad should then be seen and you should be able to copy them to the computer using that application.
Photos that were synced to your iPad by connecting to your syncing computer cannot be copied back this way as the master file for those photos are on the syncing computer. -
When setting up some iCloud info., agreed to merge iPhone and iPad contact info., and now most of my iPhone messages are listed by phone numbers, rather than by the person's name. Some of the names eventually showed up, but not many, and most of those now have the husband and wife's name together or just the family name (Millers, Smiths, etc.).
No, your iPhone and your iPad should not appear in the finder.
I'm not sure what you mean about downloading photos with iPhoto being double handling, but you can download direct to a folder with Image Capture. Image Capture can also be used to delete photos from the Camera Roll on the iPhone or iPad (preferrably after they are downloaded).
You can remove the photos you synced from your phone with iTunes by syncing again with an empty folder, That will delete all the photos that were previously synced that way, replacing them with the contents of the empty folder (that is, nothing). This will not effect photos takes with the camera on your iPhone. -
I have reset my IPhone, deleted apps, no email hooked up, delete text messages daily, EVERYTHING to make space on my IPhone and STILL have 4.83GB of "other" space. I need help
Restore from a backup will get you some 'other' back.
Still not happy, Restore in iTunes, Setup as new. Sync back personal data using iTunes Tabs -
After problems with iPhotos I emptied my iPhoto trash but it tells me there are still over 300 photos in the trash yet it looks empty and I can't find apparently still existing photos. How can I make the number go and tells me my trash is on zero?
First ry the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
or with Mt. Lion from the User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder
3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
NOTE 2: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
If the above doesn't help continue with the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

When I try to update from 3.6.18 to 5.0, get message that no updats are available.
See above
Using Windows Vista Home Premium and Firefox 3.6.18 on the computer in question. When I click on the check for updates I get message that no updates are available. Why is not 5.0 showing as an available update, since 5.01 is not needed for windows? When I converted from 3.6.18 to 5.0 a couple or so weeks ago it let me update on my other computer using Vista Home Premium. Why is Firefox making it harder to update now??? Where can I get 5.0 , since 5.o1 is not necessary for my windows computer??? I am a long time user of Firefox and it is getting more complicated, rather than easier to use. As for speed cannot see any difference than 3.6.18, except that 3.6.18 appears to be a litter faster.

I have two devices (Iphone and Ipad) on the same Apple ID. When I go to Icloud and click at the "find Iphone" I see only one of my devices. How can I do to see both of them?
Obvious question, but have you got 'Find My iPhone' set on both devices? Settings>iCloud>Find My iPhone.

I am changing to iCloud on my iMac, MacBook Air and my iPhone. My iMac and MacBook both moved over to iCloud but my iPhone when I go to Settings and click on iCloud it shows my Mail setting turned Off. When I turn it on it wants me to create a new email address to turn on iCloud Mail. I already have to "me" accounts plus another email address and don't want to create another one. I don't understand why it's asking me to do this on my iPhone but didn't ask on my iMac or MacBook and is there a way around creating another @me.com email address?
