why is itunes downloading the latest software twice and leaving my ipod in recovery mode? what happend to the first download?
Does the iPod work fine now?
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 If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue.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.

Last, try restoring on another computer.
You are really not describing your problem well.

I have a 4S and just tried updating to the latest iOS version and my phone went into recovery mode and iTunes says I need to restore to factory settings. Anyone know how I can fix my phone without losing all my content?
You would only be able to restore to a backup to iCloud or iTunes:

iTunes gives me the message that it has detected an iPod in recovery mode and that I need to restore the factory settings. When I click the "restore" button iTunes downloads the software. This is a 30 minute process. Once the download completes, I get the same message "iTunes detects an iPod in recovery mode....". I'm running Windows Vista and ZoneAlarm security software.
I've tried this restore function multiple times and still get the same results.
I've also tried resetting the iPod by holding the wake/sleep button and the Home button at the same time. The iPod turns on but shows the icons of a usb cable connecting to iTunes.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.This maybe yuor problem:

Plug it into iTunes and restore it with your backup. You should have a backup in iTunes or iCloud.

I have updated my 3gs to the latest operating system but it is stuck in recovery mode and will not restore...any suggestions on getting it to restore?
Yes, a message pops up on the computer that says..."The iPhone could not be restored. An unknown error occurred. (3014)" I tried to research this and tried all of the things Apple suggested but still am not having any luck with it. Thanks for any assistance you may provide!

i'm 11 and my ipod4 is in recovery mode because It's disabled I went to itunes and it said ipod in recovery mode found you must restore so i clicked ok went to files devices but it wouldn't let me click back up whats going on?
Because you can't backup a device that is in Recovery mode.
You have to restore the iPod and restore from backup if you have a backup
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store -
I have set up another user screen on my PC (MS Windows 7) & downloaded iTunes and then downloaded the latest software version. The sync has taken over an hour so far, is this normal? It is my niece's iPod and she has her music library on her laptop but has not downloaded the latest software - does this cause a clash if the iPod is registered to a different PC? Any help or guidance in an idiots simple way would be most appreciated. JT
It is the update firmware is taking so long? It can take an hour or more for the download.
If you do the update on other than the syncing computer, all the music and apps will not be on the iPod after the update see:

My iPod will only let me get the 3.1 update and I don't know how to get a later update.
What happens when you try?

Do you have the original ipod touch? If so, then 3.1 is the latest software. -

Is there a way to reuse a region in multiple pages?
Is there a way to reuse a region in multiple pages? For future maintenance, it would be easier to make changes in just one region. Maintaining multiple copies of a region is more work and eventually someone will forget to change one of the regions. T
