why won't my ipod touch restore?

It's giving me the "connect USB to iTunes" graphic on the user interface. When I do this it repeatedly goes into restore mode, but never resolves the issue. It asks me the same questions about what to sync and what to do, but then, right as it seems it has fixed itself, the screen goes black again and the process begins anew.

Maybe:

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 If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue.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 in DFU mode and then restoring.

Last, try restoring on another computer.
