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.

I have an ipod that is disabled how do i disable it

Connect in recovery mode and restore, you'll get the option to reset the passcode during this process:
iOS: Unable to update or restore and iPhone and iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). 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. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.

I have an ipod that is disabled and i dont have access to a computer

i have an ipod thta is disabled and i dont have acces to a computer any help?

The you ned either an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch with the FindMNyiPhone app and your iPod has to be connected to the interent
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.
You can go to a friend's place or an Apple store

I just bought a g4 power pc 1gig new in the box. I have an iMac that I had upgraded from Tiger to Lepoard. When I put my Lepoard disc in the g4 it gave me a message to restart but when I try to restart it only powers and repeats the message what do I do

I have an iMac that I upgraded from Tiger to Lepoard. I found a brand new power pc g4 1gig never unpacked and tried to use my Lepoard disk to upgrade the os but I get a restart message but when I power down it stays off and when I power up I get the restart message. If I can't upgrade to Lepoard how do I get the computer to eject my Lepoard disk and go back to the os that was on it? Thank you anyone who can advise.
Peace

When you power up the computer hold down the click bar on the track pad (or the left click on a mouse) and the computer will eject the disk.

6th gen nano. will not remember which song I was on if paused (sleep) or turned off. Defaults to some random song in list and to shuffle mode. I have to go back to songlist and try to remember what song I was listening to (ridiculous). Any way to fix?

I tried just leaving the player in the paused/sleep mode instead of turning it off (someone said it will stay on the song you were just listening to--but no). Still goes back to nowhere (now playing = random and shuffle). I've read that this is a serious problem with the 6th gen. I don't use or like the shuffle feature. I use a sort list in my songlists to play in the order I want. I just want the player to remember which song I left off on and pick it back up from there when I get back to it. I have a 5th gen nano and 2 classics and they work great at going right back to where you left off. Seems like a no brainer to have it remember which song you were on in a songlist and not go back to a random shuffle (now playing) and hear the same song over. Anyone know any tricks to resolve this?
Thanks

No, the app does not have to completely restart. It gets shifted in its open state into storage. Similar to how a computer uses the hard disk when it has insufficient memory.
What complicates things is that sometimes memory does not get returned for reuse when you close an app. Thus yo should periodically double click the Home button and "delete" unnecessary apps from the multitasking dock and power off and then back on the iPod.

Hi. I am trying to buy some apps on my new iPad but it keeps asking me to enter the answer to my security questions. However i answered those questions on my iPod years ago and now I can't remember what the answers were. I don't have a rescue email. Help.

Please help. It is urgent I download these apps.

If you don't have a rescue email address then see if the instructions on this user tip helps : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551

HT1386 Good evening. My iPhone is disabled and everything I have tried is not allowing me to get back on. I do not remember what the passcode is. Will you please help me.

I need help unlocking my iPhone. I just switched from Samsung of which I never used a passcode. So I don't remember the passcode. I have tried the things they suggest with out avail.

You will need to connect the phone to the computer and iTunes and restore as new. See this support document for instructions. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212

Does anyone know how to unlock a computer that my kids changed the admin username on and they can't remember what they put

i am trying to unlock my son's computer that we bought from a school supply store. one of my kids changed the administrator user name but they can't remember what the changed it to. the computer is stuck on the login in screen and the password is blank. please help

If you have the OS X installation discs for this computer, then I suggest you erase the hard drive and install a fresh copy of OS X so you can set up an admin account only accessible to you. Create separate managed user accounts for each of your children.
This will prevent your children from making any changes to the accounts of their siblings since you will retain the only authority to make such changes. This would be accomplished through the Parental Controls options of Accounts in System Preferences.
If you need help with this let us know.

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.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Or maybe:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I have two ipods that cannot sync to my macbook because i had to replace the hard drive in the mac. the ipods say they are synced to another itunes library and can't be synced with my new itunes account. help!

i have two ipods that are synced to my previous itunes account that was on my macbook before the hard drive crashed. i can't sync with the new itunes on the new hard drive - help!

Why did you start a new account?
Copy everything from your backup copy of your computer to your new hard drive.
Ipod will sync to one itunes library at a time. Syncing to another will erase the current content from the ipod.

I have an Ipod that I downloaded my own music from the old computer. I would like to add them to my Itune account, but more importantly I would like to get them onto my new computer. Any solutions?

I have a Ipod that has my personal music on it from a previous computer. I would like to sync the music from the Ipod to my new computer. How can I do this?

The music sync is one way - computer to ipod/iphone. The exception is itunes purchases: File>Transfer Purchases
Use your backup copy of your old comptuer to put everything on the new one.

least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
