iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode - Use iTunes to restore

Written by Neil Galloway
 

I recently had the error "iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode - Use iTunes to restore" whenever I would try to synch my iPod. It was driving me nuts. And even when I would restore it, I would get the same error continually. The message wouldn't go away.

After reading some different articles, including this iPod Recovery Mode on from Apple, I found a solution.

I had a USB card reader for my SD card that was causing some errors. I pulled out the card reader and rebooted my laptop. Afterwards, everything was fine. I still had to recover my iPod, but it synched everything back on and worked just like befoer.

you musn’t click restore button.

It just only because your operating system detected iPod

and put it with drive letter that have been used before.

iPod seems to take a drive letter closest to your fixed volumes.

So the solution is change the drive letter from

Start | Control Panel | Administrative Tools | Computer Management

or just

Start | Run | compmgmt.msc

or right click My Computer then choose Manage…

then click Disk Management and change the iPod drive letter.
