Why is my phone in recovery mode and wont update?

My iphone 5 was preparing to update and is now in recovery mode and will not restore, pls help

If this program will not get the iPod out of recovery mode then you will have to restore and thus erase the iPhone.
I you use PhotoStream you may be able to get the photos back. See:

  • HT201263 My iphone is stuck in recovery mode and wont update.

    Yesterday my iphone went into recovery mode while it was updating. Now I can't get it out of recovery mode as it won't restore or back up.
    I keep getting errors. I've had error 9006 & 3259.

    Hey Lianne,
    If you are having an issue with getting errors such as 9006 in recovery mode for your iPhone, you may have security software that is preventing it from communicating with your computer. See this article for resolution -
    Resolve iOS update and restore errors - Apple Support
    Specifically -
    Check your security software and settings to make sure that they aren't preventing a connection to the Apple servers.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Be well,

  • Ipod 4G stuck in recovery mode. Wont update!

    I just bought a 4G ipod touch and adding songs, and left the room and my little sister hit the restore button in itunes and now its stuck in recovery mode and wont update. Itunes tells me: "iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode. You must restore this iPod before it can be used with iTunes."
    I hit recovery and it gets past the recovery part to verify ipod restore. Which looked like the last step i get an error: The iPod "iPod" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred(9)
    I have tried everything..
    I am using windows 7 and i just updated itunes. Usb is updates as well.
    I have a $300 ipod and its not working.
    HELP!

    I have nearly the same problem!
    I had to wait over 1 month to get my ipod touch and when it was there, i couldn't syncronise it over iTunes. so i decided to restore it and it stuck in the progress...
    so i released the usb-cabel and my iPod Touch 4g came in the recovery mode..
    and now it always stucks, when i try to restore it. i don't even get an error from iTunes..
    what can i do? i didn't do anything wrong!
    I'm also a little bit disappointed of apple, because it says, that i can't return a defective device online! The next apple store is a two hour drive away and it's not sure, that they can really help me. i also don't know, if my ipod is really defective!!!

    Follow the steps listed above for Error 1604. Also, discard the .ipsw file, open iTunes and attempt to download the update again. See the steps under Advanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations. If you do not want to remove the IPSW in the original user, try restoring in a new administrator user. If the issue remains, Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.

    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.

  • IOS 7 put my phone in recovery mode and will not restore

    After updating to iOS 7, my iphone went into recovery mode and everytime I try and restore it, it errors out with an error code 9.  I have tried 2 different cords and 2 different computers and it will not restore.  HELP    Not sure what to do from here and the nearest Apple store is 200 miles away.

    Hi all,
    Bit of background so I don't waste anyone's time:
    IPhone 4s, itunes 11.1 (both on computer and iphone)
    I too am stuck in this recovery loop. I've read all over the community and have tried the suggestions:
    I put my phone in DFU mode & also recovery mode (a.e. hold home/sleep button down for 10 seconds, etc., etc., etc.) and tried restoring this way 10 different times, as some posts say it sometimes works after the 4-5 try but still no results.
    On my Iphone Screen the apple logo appears and the status bar below it gets stuck about 2/3 of the way, then I get the following error message, "could not restore because of unknown error (1)".
    I set up an appt. at the apple store for tomorrow, but holy sh*t what a fiasco!
    Any suggestions?

  • I tried to download iOS7 to my iPhone 4, it put my phone into recovery mode and every time I try to restore it, it says it failed? HELP

    I have an iPhone 4, I tried to download iOS 7 from iTunes tonight. I made sure my iTunes was up to date and everything, and while it was downloading iOS7 my screen went black and the iTunes symbol with the USB cord popped up onto it and in my iTunes tab, it said that it detected an iPhone in recovery mode and to restore/update it. I've tried it twice already, resetting my laptop twice and I don't know what to do someone please help!

    I think this could help. Also, there are links to other posts for a bunch of possible soultions. I'd try this first. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • How would i fix my iPhone 4 that is stuck in recovery mode and wont properly restore with error code 21?

    I've already updated my iTunes to the latest version available for PC. The phone is stuck in recovery mode and if I disconnect it from the computer it goes black and then cycles in the reboot screen.  All im trying to do is restore to factory settings.

    Hi Richard_NMLB,
    I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with your iPhone. If your iPhone is currently stuck in Recovery Mode, and/or you are unable to restore it from iTunes, you may find the information and troubleshooting steps outlined in the following articles helpful (bit unclear what exactly is happening when you try to restore):

  • HT1267 my iphone 3gs wont come out of recovery mode and wont restore

    I can't get my iphone out of recovery mode and it wont restore. What do I do?

    Did you use the recovery mode instructions in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 and that did not work?
    If that will not work, you can use DFU mode, but the timing of the actions is critical:
    Power down the iPhone, start iTunes on the computer, connect the USB end of the cable to the computer.
    Press and hold the power button on the iPhone while attaching the other end of the cable, and continue to hold the power button for three seconds.  Then, while still holding the power button press and hold the home button.  Continue holding both buttons for ten seconds, then release the power button and continue to hold the home button for an additional twenty seconds.  Release the home button and you should be able to restore.
