While I was updating to ios6, my iPod touch went into recovery mode. iTunes tells me to reset it. But It won't let me do that without updating first. I let it update, but afterwards it still doesn't reset my iPod. I've tried multiple times but it did the same thing...
iPod touch, Windows 7
It says that my iPod software is up to date, but when I choose for it to be restored it downloads ios6 again and doesn't restore my iPod.
Try disabling the computer's security software since this may be your problem:
Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
Next try placing the iPod in DFU mode and then restoring.

I normally just hold both buttons down until the screen goes black, count to 5-6 sec and release the power button while holding the home button.
Beamni, just wondering what you expected to add by replying to a 1 1/2 year old post and providing no new information.
My iPod touch is stuck in recovery mode & iTunes won't reset it.
