My Ipad 2 is stuck in recovery mode after the update 6.1

I have been on the phone to apple all day today at 50 per min!!! mine did this this morning and i get the currupt msg too

im in the uk and dont have a mac pc but windows will this still work for me? thanks

Just did Techmadness's end-around and it worked!

Don't go to the Apple store. I did before this fix and they couldn't restore it, even after using four different computers, saying to wait for Apple to fix it themselves and try an iTunes restore again after a few days.

Thanks buddy.

Dude I tried downloading the link you gave out on a MAC computer it downloaded but when I open the file it opens Itunes alone but nothings pops up and when I press shift nothing happens either please help step by step this is really starting to **** me off I don't know what to do and I have a Mac computer

@nickyf8

I'm in the Uk and did this on win7 pc

It works on the Mac but you replace the 'shift' key with the 'option' key.

Don't panic Wavyrye, use the OPTION or COMMAND key instead of SHIFT when doing this on a MAC.

Also, do not open the file directly, follow the instructions again mate.

Open iTunes

Connect ipad

Hold option/command button when you click restore

Find the downloaded file

Restore your ipad

Restore ipad from iCloud or iTunes backup

Your done.

OK GUYS NEVERMIND IT WAS THE OPTION KEY ON MACS NOT SHIFT CHRIS YOU ROCK BROOOOOOO GOT IT WORKIN NOW

I don't have a physical mac, only a virtual one so its either the option or command key you need pictured.

Try both one at a time :)

Most welcome buddy

why dont you work for apple???? they should be paying you big bucks!!

did the download take 4 hours?

That'll be nice but I'm sure their tech director would like to keep his current position.

If they are reading any of the discussions today then they can send me some free kit for saving their loyal users.

not sure how many of them will be loyal after this!!! but you defo deserve some serious freebies!

You did good work here, buddy. Thanks again.
