ipod touch 4 stuck in recovery mode

Question

ipod touch 4 stuck in recovery mode

What can i do to get my ipod touch 4g out of recovery mode without using the restore ipod option in itunes. I dont want to lse my data thats on my ipod so that ISNT an Option

BTW I got here by doing an update for OS 6.1.6 from OS 6.1.5, and itunes gave an error and now my ipod is stuck in that recovery mode. I tried to do a recovery fix using redsn0w 0.9.15b3 but it came back with an error "Missing Keys.plist data for this build"

I chose that method cause i seen a utube video telling me to use that program, but it didnt work :/ and NO i Do Not Want to use the iTunes Restore Option cause I Dont want to lose any DATA on my iPod

Thanx for any help

iPod touch (4th generation), iOS 6.1.5

Don't worry about that. iPod stuck in recovery mode always happens when you update the iOS on your iPod. There are two ways to solve it.

First is is to put your iPod in DFU mode.
Step 1. Turn off iPod
Step 2. Hold down the power and home button.
Step 3. When you see the Apple logo, release the power button but continue holding the home button down.
Step 4. Open iTunes and wait for it to tell you that it’s in restore mode.

Second is to fix with a iPod Data Recovery tool.
Step 1: Fix the Problem of iPod Stuck in Recovery Mode
Step 2: Recover Lost Data from your iPod Directly
Step 3: Recover Lost Data from iTunes Backup
You can try both of them.
