    how do you unlock ipod touch security code

    As far as I'm aware you're referring to the passcode. It seems that you've forgot the passcode that you've inserted, so your best bet is to connect your iPod to iTunes and have it restored back to factory settings. You'll be able to find the restore button by clicking on your iPod's name that's located right below the "Device's Tab."

  • How can I unlock ipod touch 5th gen currently disabled and never sync'd with itunes

    Basic situation. Ipod touch 5th gen. Passcode forgotten and tried too many times such that ipod is disabled and requested to connect to iTunes.  Problem is that the ipod was never sync'd with iTunes so the connection fails.  I've only owned it for 9 months or so.  I know I can recover all my music through iTunes and my applications through the app store since all of my content was legally purchased.  The problem is that I need to also recover my contacts and pictures since this is the only place they exist.
    I have read about methods up to 4th generation where you can access a particular file on the device via computer and rename it to unlock the device. That would most likely allow me to then sync/backup via iTunes and recover my data.  Problem is that I can only access the DCIM folder via windows manager and it contains no data. Perhaps there is a way to access the device a different way?
    Is there a way with the 5th generation to either reset the lock (from disabled to locked with a 1 min wait for retry as an example) to allow me more opportunities to try other passcodes that I may have set (including mistypes etc) or to remove the passcode completely and let me set it to something I will write down this time?
    Please do not reply with the standard apple responses of 'sync with itunes' or 'factory reset' and no, I did not sync with the icloud either (I tried but it was unsuccessful for some reason).
    The answer doesn't even have to be a free one as I would be willing to pay for the solution if it were guaranteed to work.  Since apple seems to want to charge for any type of support, even to ask a question, I am relying on the community for help.  Thanks much.

    You have to place the iPod in Recovery mode as Apple says and erase the device. It is a security feature.
    or
    If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone and use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
    You can also wipe the iOS device by installing the FindMyiPhone app on another iOS device and using that app to wipe the device.
    There is not other way

  • How to remotely unlock IPod touch

    I have a white iPod touch havin 5.1.1 os. A few days ago I lost it and have been trying to locate it using find my iPhone. But I pressed the option "remote lock " and have now locked my iPod. Can I somehow unlock my iPod using the same app? Is it still possible for me to locate my iPod?

    You cannot unlock it using the FindMyiPod feature, however this will not prevent you from tracking it. Your iPod Touch just has to be powered on and have a data connection. When you chose the "remote lock" command were you asked for a code? If not it's locked with the same code that is setup on the iPod.

  • How do you locate iPod touch if missing

    Hi there, I am already after posting a question about this issue but I forgot to give all information, my daughter got an iPod touch for Christmas but since she was only 4 at the time I set it up using my account and name so I could manage what she was playing on!  She is after losing it and her heart is broke as she loved it but I don't know how to locate it! I know I have find my iPhone app on this phone but I'm unsure if it is on the iPod touch! Please can you help me out! I have the box it came in with model and serial number if that helps

    If you set up find my ipod on the ipod itself befiore it was lost and it is on and it is connected to wi-fi, then you may be able to get an apporximate street address using icloud.com.
    Otherwise, it cannot be tracked.
