How do you stop a recovery mode loop when it won't sync with the orignal itunes library?

My dad gave me his Ipod touch 4th generation and said if I could get it to work I can use it. I have tried to restore it with his itunes, it goes through the steps but when it is over it is still in recovery mode...I don't know what to do....😟

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 If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue.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.

Then try restoring on another computer.

Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
