WiFi cut out during update and iPod 4th gen is stuck on connect to iTunes screen

I was updating the iOS and I think the WiFi cut out and messed it up. This has happened before and supoort helped me fix it, but im not paying 20 dollars for them to help again...

Connect the iPod to your computer and restore via iTunes
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
Then restore from backup
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

My Ipod touch 4th gen. only shows the "connect to Itunes" screen.

I think this happened after an Ipod update. I can turn it off and on, but the only screen I get is the "connect to Itunes" screen ( usb cord with arrow to itunes logo). I have tried to restart, restore, but nothing works. I have also reinstalled Itunes. The Ipod is not recognized in Itunes, either. Any ideas? Thanks!

Ipod touch 4G is stuck in "connect to itunes" screen.

I just got my brand new Ipod Touch 4G (iOS 4.3.5), I connected it to my PC and put some music on it, I was using itunes 10.4.
I update to itunes 10.5.0 and it wouldn't recognize my ipod. I searched online for solutions with no luck.
Itunes says: "itunes was not properly install....."
In My Computer my ipod showed as Camera Device, wouldn't let me copy videos or pictures to the folder.
In Device Manager, Apple Mobile Device (Recovery Mode) has the yellow warning triangle
I don't have a CD with the ipod software -it didn't come with it- but I downloaded iOS 4.3.4, iOS 4.3.5 and iOS 5 in case I need them.
I updated to itunes 10.5.1 and it recogized my ipod, it said a new iOS 5 was available, so I click to update to it.
Everything was going right, until my ipod got stuck in the "connect to itunes" screen, and it didn't restore. (error 1604)
Some times (with no reason at all) itunes would recognize my ipod and say "itunes has detected an ipod in recovery mode. you must restore this ipod before it can be used with itunes" I click OK, Restore and Update, it takes some time and then, "error 1604"
I've been searching online, but nothing works, I've tried these:
-Putting the ipod in DFU mode, it would restart the ipod but the same screen will come up.
-I uninstall, verified and reinstall itunes and its components (itunes, QT, Apple Software Update, AMDS, Bonjour, Apple Application Support)
-Restart a million times my pc after installing.
-downloaded fixrecovery.exe but it won't even start because zlib1.dll was not found.
-downloaded RecBoot and it says "I must install the following .NET framework: v4.0.30319" -How do I know what framework I have???
inside the RecBoot folder was the program iPHUCWIN32.exe, I started it and it says "this application has failed to start because iTunesMobileDevice.dll was not found".
*Note:
My HP Pavilion G60-235DX Notebook won't let me install updates from the Windows Update software (error 80096001). for a while now.
The DVD/CD drive dissapeared from my computer (about 2 months ago), haven't found a solution for it yet (can't afford to take it to a repair shop or send to HP) that's why I'm trying myself.
I want a solution for the IPOD problem, the rest will come later.
Seriously guys, can some one help me with this? I'm desperated...
Any good software to restore my ipod ? (I don't care about erasing all the content -I want it to work like it supposed to).

I connected my ipod to another pc with windows vista also, with itunes ver. 10.4.1.10 but error 3194 came out, so now I'm going to try this:
Exit iTunes
Locate your hosts file:
In Mac OS X /etc/hosts
In Windows c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
Open the hosts file with Administrator privileges using Notepad.
Add the following lines to the very bottom of the hosts file:
#74.208.105.171 gs.apple.com
Connect your device to the computer
Launch iTunes
Put device into DFU Mode by turning your device off and then holding down the sleep and power button for 10 seconds, then release the power button but hold onto the home button until iTunes tells you that the device is now in recover mode
Use the iTunes Restore feature as usual with the iOS device
Once your iOS update is finished, remove the “#74.208.105.171 gs.apple.com” line from your hosts file again so that iTunes can properly update as usual.

My iPod 5th gen is stuck in "Connect to Itunes/Recovery mode" mode

My iPod 5th generation (IOS 7.0.1) is stuck in "Recovery mode".WARNING my iPod is Jailbroken.
Prior to this happening I sent my iPod to a local Technician's shop to replace my screen witch had been slowy becoming less and less responsive.When I got it back it was stuck in recovery mode.
I do not remember every thing I downloaded from cydia.And I honestly doubt that the Technician did anything malicious to it.
I have tried (In no particular order)
1.Connecting into iTunes with the official lighting cable.I then opened iTunes telling me to Update or Restore my iPod.I tried "Restore" then iTunes downloaded IOS 8 and extracted the update it shut down my iPod then it said waiting for response and the iPod went back into recovery mode and said "Error code 21". and then tried "Update" and yet again got Error code 21. and I also went on apples solutions page for error code 21 and did everything that the page suggested me to do and it got me nowhere.
2.Used Redsn0w's "get out of recovery mode" and my iPod then briefly shuts off and back into "Recovery mode" then tried Redsn0w's "Restore" to re-install IOS 7.0.1.Redsn0w said "Unsupported Firmware".I then tried IOS 6.0. and told me that apple isnt signing blobs
3.I used Tiny Umbrella's "Exit Recovery" while using the TSS server.and then it shut off then turned back on to go back into "Recovery mode".I then put my iPod into DFU mode and tried "Fix Recovery" In Tiny Umbrella's log it says "Attempting to fix recovery...,Starting to fix recovery...,Fix recovery has finished,Allow device to reboot!".The entire time my iPod screen is black and I have waited for 10+ minutes and nothing happens.
4.I tried using iTunes to recover my iPod while the iPod was in DFU mode.And still stuck in "Recovery mode".
5.I made sure my iTunes was updated.
6.Unplugged everything except for my mouse and tried every USB port on my computer.and in between switching tried to "Restore" still Error code 21 then tried "Update" and my iPod and I still got Error code 21 on every attempt.
Any response on how to fix this is greatly appreciated.

Jailbreaking
Jailbreaking voids the Apple warranty and also means that you will not get any support from Apple, including from this Apple forum. Jailbreaking can't be discussed in this Apple forum.
Unauthorized modification of iOS has been a major source of instability, disruption of services, and other issues

My ipod touch 5th gen is stuck on connect to itunes screen, but when I connect it it doesn't update or restore my ipod. what to do?

I've been trying all day to update or restore my ipod but it won't go through without running into a last minute "error".

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software.

How can i get my music off of my email to my iPod touch 2nd gen and iPod 4th gen?

How can i get my music off of my email to my iPod touch 2nd gen and iPod 4th gen?

Find an app to which you can save the attachment and which also uses file sharing
iOS: About File Sharing
or similar to get the music into your computer. Import into iTunes library and sync to the iPod. There is no direct way to get music into your iPod Music app besides purchasing from iTunes or syncing from your iTunes library
GoodReader should work but I do not think it is available for the 2G

Ipod 4th gen! - stuck determing gapless playback info.- why?

After several restores trying to get my ipod 4th gen. click wheel going (after installing iTunes 7 and the ipod becoming extremely buggy afterwards...) running diagnostic tests, etc., it turns out that the problem seems to be that every time I plug the ipod into my computer iTunes 7 tells me its "determing gapless playback information" which takes forever.
Of course, I thought that this gapless feature was only for newer iPod models so I'm puzzled why iTunes is doing this for my older model? Also it seems to have broken the playback when using the iPod - playback drops out in the middle of songs for instance.
I've now installed Linux on my iPod and Podzilla is playing back my files just fine, when I try with Apple's software - totally broken and disappointing.
Anybody know what's up? Are we waiting for Apple to release a fix for this? Why is my 4th Gen. apparently attempting the gapless playback?
powerbook g4 1.33 gHz, 12" Mac OS X (10.4.7)

his is not operating system-specific, but I want to get it on the record somewhere since I could not find the solution anywhere else.
Last week, my third-generation 30GB iPod refused to go beyond the Apple logo on startup. It would power up, flash as if trying to go to the menu, but instead it would just show the Apple again. I tried all the usual recovery methods: resetting (hundreds of times and a couple of different ways), disk scans from the diagnostic menu, restoring with the latest iPod software and with an older version, fsck, using Disk Utility to repair and erase, Disk Warrior, letting the battery drain, everything.
Nothing worked ... until I used Disk Utility to reformat the disk with the "Zero Out Data" option (in the Security pop-up) enabled. This, apparently, reformatted the drive in such a way as to account for bad sectors. It took about an hour.
After that, I restored it with the latest iPod software, and to my delight, it booted normally. It now works fine.
Found that on web mite help you.... but i dont have a mac

Hi my ipod 3 g is stuck on connect to itunes once its detected it says to unlock it because it has a passcode my question is how im i suppose to unlock it when i dont get that option ive tried holding the wake btn

hi my ipod 3 g is stuck on connect to itunes mode once connected it says to unlock the whole thing here it does not give me that option ive tried to hold the wake button & home that has not helped any suggestions thanks .

Connect in recovery mode and restore, you'll get the option to reset the passcode during this process:
iOS: Unable to update or restore and iPhone and iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
