I'm restoring my iPod Touch and I think it's stuck.

I went to restore my 3rd gen iPod touch and it has been resetting for over 2 hours now. It's been stuck on the black screen with the loading icon the entire time. Is this normal? Can I do anything to get it unstuck?

That is too long.

Try:

- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on

- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.

- Try on another computer

- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
