iPad 2, iOS 9.0.1, Stuck in recovery mode
I had the same problem with my iPad 2 when attempting to update to iOS 9. I contacted Apple support but was told there was nothing they could do, and I had to pay a technician to fix it. Now I'm afraid to update to 9.0.1, and it won't allow me to contact Apple support via iPad because I don't have the latest version of Safari -- suspect the problem to be that I haven't attempted the latest update. NO help from Apple. Very frustrating!

CCall the Apple support 800 #. They, (James), walked me thru every step to get to the "restore" option. I had to go back to "factory settings" because I couldn't get to ITunes either, but hey, better than paying. Good luck 2 u, hope this helps. Apple was great!
How? How? How? ITunes wouldn't recognize my iPad, and when I tried to restore to factory settings, the process wouldn't complete. My Apple rep said there was nothing else to be done. I really wish I had more information. That might give me more confidence to download the latest,update, 9.0.1. Right now I'm paralyzed. I depend on this little device!
Ipad 2 stuck in recovery mode Itunes doesnt recognize it either so I cant use I tunes to fix. Any suggestions?
