Ok so ive seen this problem in a lot of places but always a solution... My ipad 1 3g is stuck in recovery mode no computer will recognize it. Ive tried dfu mode its completely invisible to any pc. absolutely nothing happens when you plug it in. When u plug into the wall charger it makes a the notification sound and charges. Ive tried all the normal solutions different pcs different ipod cables dfu mode and obviously stuck already in recovery... usb 2.0 ports always. restarted both pc and ipad... like i said ive tried every normal solution tried reading tons of forums but to no avail... somebody please hlep

Try another cable I had this happen one time with a 3g iphone. After trying a new cable it worked great and I fixed my issue. Hope thats it.

You could download the free ASUS A1 charger, it increases the power to USB ports

Try the following

Try press & hold the power button all the way for 15 seconds until the screen black out & apple logo should come back up....if this fails then follow the option below
  1. Before connecting to your computer via cable, press & hold the home button.
  2. connect cable and you should be in DFU mode
  3. Restore to factory setting

I was thinking on the lines if your ipad charger is faulty, this would charge your iPad without buying another charger 1st just to try it out.

google the word ichargeandsync and you will see a great fix for PC to ipad charge and sync issues You probably need to restore to factory settings first and get a good charge. This iCHargeandsync come with a great friffin charger and the cables to connect to a PC. The top pick on google is the one.​
