How to get my ipod 5th generation out of recovery mode

I was doing a software update when my laptop turned off leaving my ipod in recovery mode how do i get it out of recovery mode? with itunes asking me to restore my ipod but i dont want to lose anything as it isnt backed up. I have pressed down the home button and power button for 10 seconds so the apple icon comes on then it goes back to recovery mode. I have installed tinyumbrella however when i go on their website there are range of links and i dont know which link it is, when opening tinyumberella it comes up with file, action, view, connected and history and select a device. Nothing is happening so it isnt reading my ipod. PLEASE HELP been trying to do something all day

Try the remaining items of:

- 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 another cable

- 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.
