What do you do when your iPod is disabled and it says connect to iTunes. And then you connect it and on the computer it says iTunes cannot connect your iPod because it is locked with a passcode

PLEASE HELP

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

Restore: Tunes cannot connect my phone because it is locked with a passcode

My iPhone is telling me that a restore is needed and to connect it to iTunes. When I connect it to iTunes I get a message that iTunes cannot connect my phone because it is locked with a passcode. I know the passcode but my phone does notgive me the option to enter the passcode to unlock. Is there a way I can do that from iTunes? Anyother ideas?

Normally you will only get that message if the computer your are using is not the last one you backed up to. Your only solution is to restore using Recovery mode. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

TS3716 My iPod hasn't been used in a very long time. It's an older model. It says disabled but every time I connect it; it says, "iTunes could not detect '____' Because it is locked with a passcode. Please enter the passcode and move on." And I cant enter

Please help.

you're most likely going to have to restore the device in recovery mode. this will erase content only on the ipod. but gain usage again :/
power off the ipod
disconnect it from the plug
while holding the home button(DO NOT LET GO!!!) connect to the chord and don't let go of the home button until you see an itunes icon.
itunes should say 'detects a device in recovery mode, you must restore' yada yada.
restore and then after your done you should be able to sync to itunes
good luck!

You may need to put the iPad into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 - you should then be able to reset the iPad and restore/resync your content to it.
If you do it via a different computer that it's not normally synced to then (from here) :
If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.

I am trying to restore my son's iPod Touch 4th generation. I went about 20 minutes into the recovery process and got the error message, iTunes could not connect to iPod because it is locked with a passcode you must enter your passcode on iPod before it can be used with iTunes. The whole problem started with my son putting in a password that he has now forgotten. How do I get passed this?

Then take it out of Lost Mode the same way you put it into Lost Mode: via the Find My iPhone App or www.icloud.com.

Ipad is disabled connect to itunes but i connected it and there was a popup saying itunes cannot connect to ipad because it is locked with a passcode. You mus enter the passcode on the ipad before it can be used with itunes. but i couldnt enter my passwor

my ipad is disabled and it said ipad is disabled connect to itunes but i connected it and was restoreing it and then there was a popup and it said itunes cannot connect to ipad because it is locked with a passcode. and you must enter the passcode on the ipad before it can be used with itunes. But i couldnt even write the passcode on my ipad cause it was disabled. What should i do now????

Follow the instructions on this page to reset your iPad : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
Note: If iTunes asks you to enter the passcode, try another computer that you have synced with. Otherwise, go to "If you have never synced your device with iTunes, or you do not have access to a computer" section below.
If you have never synced your device with iTunes, or you do not have access to a computer
If you see one of following alerts, you need to erase the device:
"iTunes could not connect to the [device] because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the [device] before it can be used with iTunes."
"You haven't chosen to have [device] trust this computer"
If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can 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.
Alternatively, place the device in recovery mode and restore it to erase the device:
Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to shut down.
While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then restore the device.

ITunes could not connect... because it is locked with a passcode

_+The Error:+_
iTunes could not connect to the iPhone "t3l01v's iPhone" because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the iPhone before it can be used with iTunes.
_+The Issue+_
I just installed the 3.0 software. The iTunes store was not available to activate my phone right away, which is normal, considering the 3.0 just came out. I have an Exchange email account configured on the phone which requires me to have a passcode set.
I can't enter my passcode because the phone is stuck on a display that says "Slide for Emergency" and is asking to connect to iTunes.
Pretty bad catch22 if you ask me. Can anyone help?

I had the exact same problem, I freaked out at first and then it worked fine. I got the error in iTunes, I check my phone and it was at the slide to emergency thing. I disconnected my iPhone, put in the passcode, and then all of a sudden the error message went away and it worked fine.

Hi Poonam26c,
If you do not have a local copy of a song which you have purchased (i.e. it is available via iTunes in the Cloud), you may need to redownload it before you can transfer it to your device. You may find the following article helpful:

Want new tab to open to home page and why does firefox not have a simple check box in the options because I can't keep going through a long procedure each time

I want new tab to open to home page and why does firefox not have a simple check box in the options because I can't keep going through the long tedious procedure each time I install firefox. It is something that should be in the options tab , and I want to know why it isn't. I am totally frustrated with firefox and getting ready to switch.

You can use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.
*https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
If you do not keep changes after a restart or otherwise have problems with preferences, see:
