If you can't update or restore your iOS device

You might need to use recovery mode if:

  • You can't update or restore because iTunes doesn't recognize your device or says it's "in recovery mode".
  • The Apple logo remains onscreen for several minutes with no progress bar.
  • The Connect to iTunes screen appears.

See what to do if the progress bar remains onscreen for several minutes


Cheers,
