How to fix the Ipod touch Connect to Itunes Mode

[@TJrider.]

This still works in 2023..... I've been fighting with an iPod touch that's been stuck in restore mode for five months.... watched all kinds of videos on how to "repair" it.... none worked.... then I found your video.... works great now.... Thank you

[@thee12th]

it won’t let me download limerain says there’s a firewall or extension blocking it any solution

[@TJrider.]

That would be an issue with your security on your computer.... you've got it locked so that it can's download from unknown sources.... you should probably youtube to see how to turn off that security feature long enough to download the program you want... then turn the security back on....@@thee12th

I have an Iphone and this TOTALLY works! I just feel bad that I was ripped off because I had taken it to a tech guy and he overcharged me to fix this same issue once before. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!! :)

[@BamvsNoodle]

This would help if my itunes actually recognized my ipod :L I cant even get the restore options up.

[@alleybubble3316]

same

[@kristend8618]

You might have figured it out by now but you have to hold the home and power button but dont let it go when the apple logo comes on, just keep holding it down until you see it shows the iTunes logo and a plug. Itunes will recognize it then and you can choose to update or restore

[@01Prognosis]

@@kristend8618 This comment is so old but thank you so much! You helped me restore my iPod and I am forever grateful to you.

[@ourgangmn]

THANK YOU! My iPod Touch 4G was in an endless recovery loop. iTunes kept restoring it, but every time the screen showed the "Connecting to iTunes" image. Following your instructions to use Limera1n worked! I spent HOURS researching this problem and wasted hours of time because one method called for installing iRecovery which killed all of the USB ports on my Win7 64 bit machine!!!! The only fix for that was to re-install Windows. GRRRRRRRRRRR. At least now I have a working PC and iPod Touch 4G!

[@narutohinata124Q]

Dude!! Thank you so much! For the last hour I have tried COUNTLESS videos and not a single one worked for me but then I ran across this tried it again expecting it to fail but it worked! I really appreciate your help!

[@aeijay6252]

Do I need to click make it rain again when I need to hold power button to make a flash?

[@krism7293]

mine stays on release power button i released my finger and just held down the home button but it didn't work.

[@danielc.5724]

not working for me! help me! lime rain keeps saying " waiting for device". It is taking forever. So I started again, but it does not work. does it work for ipads, like the ipad air?

If you have this problem you ONLY NEED TO HOLD THE POWER AND HOME BUTTON FOR TEN SECONDS AND THEN IT WILL TURN OFF. After that just press the power button and it turns on normal No need to do this process. TOO LONG

Just simply hold down the home and power button, wait for it to turn off, then release both buttons, and it should work, then you can connect it to your computer and charge if needed.
