Q: iPad won't restore
Hey all I'm having some issues restoring my iPad. I tried to restore it yesterday and right near the end the progress bar (on both the iPad and iTunes) just hung there. After a while I disconnected and tried again. Same issue. So I thought maybe I got a corrupted .ipsw so I re-downloaded and same thing. Tried to restore in my troubleshooting account, same thing. So I kind of just gave up last night. Today I come home to try and give it another go and this time I received a 1604 error. I changed the usb port I was using (on my '07 Macbook) and it just hung like the night before. I've tried putting it into recovery mode (although I'm pretty sure it's been stuck in it since last night) and restoring and nothing. Tried the troubleshooting account and got a 1604 error once and still getting the progress bar to hang.
I'm not sure what I can do now... it just won't restore. I tried a different usb cable so it's not that. I've yet to try a different computer (will do tomorrow). Don't think it's a software issue with iTunes or the .ipsw. So just looking to see if anyone else can offer some advice before I give AC a call.
Thanks.
