Title: iPOD Touch Stuck In Recovery Mode Post by: Nomoreheroes on Sunday, June 26, 2011, 17:40:33 Stupidly let iTunes download an update for my iPod Touch. It crashed out part way through and now my son's iPod Touch is stuck in permanent recovery mode (picture of USB cable to a cd with a note saying iTunes). Tried power on and home together, but it just goes to the apple logo and then back to the say recovery picture.
Help! Title: Re: iPOD Touch Stuck In Recovery Mode Post by: jonny72 on Sunday, June 26, 2011, 17:59:32 If it's Windows, try changing the drive letter for the iPod.

Title: Re: iPOD Touch Stuck In Recovery Mode Post by: otanswell on Sunday, June 26, 2011, 18:36:51 Try rebooting the computer, load iTunes, then plug phone in but do power and home at same time, should then popup saying iPod is in recovery mode. Click update then should work
Title: Re: iPOD Touch Stuck In Recovery Mode Post by: Nomoreheroes on Sunday, June 26, 2011, 18:43:02 Problem I'm having now is that I've finally got iTunes to recognise there is an ipod attached. I'm trying to do a restore and Windows finds 'new hardware'. It then tries to load software for an Apple Mobile Device (Recovery Mode) and keeps failing.

Title: Re: iPOD Touch Stuck In Recovery Mode Post by: Nomoreheroes on Monday, June 27, 2011, 09:54:13 No. Got it sorted!
1. Downloaded iREB-r4 to get iTunes to see the ipod 2. Fresh install of iTunes on another (faster) laptop 3. Recover ipod on faster machine 4. Transfer back to slower machine and synch to old library (Note: Had tried reinstalling iTunes, downloading a new .ipsw file, rebooting pc, recovering several times. Just didn't like it! I've now come to the conclusion that 'any' problem with a pc takes 6 hours minimum to fix!)
