7.) Now you may proceed to restore!

Alternate Method 2:

1.) Turn off you device while not having it plugged in.

2.) Hold the home button for ten seconds and connect the USB, DON'T LET GO (Make Sure The USB Is Plugged Into Your Computer And You Have iTunes Running)

3.) Keep Holding the home button until iTunes recognizes your device and gives you the option to restore (you should not have to wait more than 20 seconds if you do start over from the beggining)
