iPod Touch stuck in recovery mode

My iPod Touch was functioning perfectly fine until it ran out of battery. When I charged it, it quickly booted into recovery mode. I don’t want to restore since I have data on it. Is there anyway to get out of recovery mode without losing my data? (iOS 5.1.1)

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Yes No

Can you shut down the iPod Touch by pressing and holding the power button?

Yes I can power it off but if I were to boot it back up it still goes into recovery mode. @andrewsawesome

@michaelns03 If you plug it into a computer with iTunes, do you get the message "iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode. You must restore this iPod before it can be used with iTunes"?

@andrewsawesome Yes but I don’t want to restore it since it has valuable data.

@michaelns03 Try this: while keeping the computer connected, hold down the home and power buttons simultaneously for 10 seconds.
