My iPod touch is not charging, nor is it syncing with my commputer and iTunes. It will charge on the wall charger, and in the car, but not on the computer. My wife's iPod Nano syncs on the computer. I went in and reset my iPod Touch back to factory settings and now it will not let me get in unless I sync to iTunes on my computer. Well, it still will not connect thru the USB cord. Does anyone know what I should do to get this corrected? I want my iPod back.

Have you seen and worked through the suggestions in this Apple support document?

Connect the iPod to the computer and restore via iTunes. If necessary, place the iPod in Recovery Mode to allow the restore.

Try here:
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X

All the apps that I have downloaded are "waiting" and whenever I try to sync apps on my computer with my phone, the apps section is greyed out and won't allow me to do anything. I have tried restoring to factory settings but it didn't work.

How can I access my apps? They are all greyed out in itunes. I have tried restoring my iphone to factory settings but that didn't work. I have a feeling it may have something to with the restrictions settings on my phone restrictions are on) but it won't allow me to change the restrictions without putting in a passcode. I don't remember ever having a passcode and after several attempts have not been able to get the right code.
Also. on my phone, in settings, personal hotspot, iCloud and Twitter are greyed out. And, the App Store icon is missing from my screen as well.
Can anybody help me with this?
Thanks

yep, unfortunately can't reset without the passcode either.
With regards to doing a restore, do you mean:
open itunes on my computer
click on my device on the left
go to the device summary
click restore
it then asks if i want to back up before i restore (to which i say no)
then it asks me if i'm sure I want to restore to factory settings and that all of me media and data will be erased and replaced with the newest version ( to which I say yes)
then it takes about 90 mins to do this but when I look at my phone, everything is exactly the same.
Am I missing something? Obviously I'm technologically challenged, but I HAVE to get to the bottom of this!

Hi, I am going to reset my Macbook Pro to factory settings but I would like to back it up first. I have backed it up to an external Hard Drive so if I were to wipe the laptop, would i be able to retrieve all of my files and applications

When OS X asks you to restore a backup, it will allow you to select what you want to restore from the backup, Just select the things you need, because if you select everything, you will be in the same status as before restoring the Mac to factory settings. This has nothing to do with erasing the hard drive
It's OK to make backups with Time Machine

I updated my phone and i guess it didn't back up properly. It reset my phone back to factory settings. Anything I can do to get back my pictures, phone list, videos, apps,etc?

The folder where your backup data is stored changes depending on the computer's operating system. Since iTunes only keeps one backup per device, you should ensure the backup folder is included in your periodic data backup routine.
iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7:\Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: If you do not see the AppData or Application Data folders, you may need to show hidden files (Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7).
copied from "about backups"http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
If you don't have, you'll have to start all over again. Apps can be downloaded again for free, but any data like game settings or similar will not be included, these are part of the backup.

I tried to restore my Iphone 5 back to factory settings but I'm only getting the ring now

I tried to restore my Iphone 5 back to factory settings but I'm only getting the blinking ring now, it's been a few hours.

Do a hard reset with a computer. Enter DFU mode, connect to iTunes, and it will say that our device is in "recovery mode". Then click restore.
How to enter DFU mode:

Back to factory settings but need notes back

Hi,
I changed my Iphone and got back to factory settings with the old one. But the thing is I forgot to take my notes before gettin back to factory settings.
The last backup i did was in 20th of Dec.
Is there any chance to get notes back or they're gone? (please say no)

It sounds like this discussion is dealing with almost the identical question:
how to recover deleted notes from iphone

HT4623 hi a bought a iphone 3gs off a freind today its not letting me do anything i have restored all settings back to factory settings but wont let me activate iphone

hi can anyone help i bought iphone 3gs off a freind today i restored back to factory settings and it wont let me activate iphone

What error do you receive when trying to activate?
Are you using the same Carrier as your friend, or a different one?
If different Carrier, are you certain the iPhone is unlocked? A locked device will of course prevent you from using SIM cards not from the Original Carrier that the device was locked too.

HT1551 My iTunes music library disappear from my AppleTv 1rst generation, and would not accept it back. The Video part works find, but the Music part does not. I reseted to Original factory settings, but still has same problem. Any body has any suggestion

I have a 1rst generation Apple TV and My Music disappear; after trying several times trying to get My Music back, I opted by resetting it back to Original settings with no avail. The video part is find, all my movies are there, but when it comes to the Music nothing shows up.
Does anybody know what could be happening here and have any suggestions how fix it ?

So, when you go to Devices->AppleTVname->Music in the left panel of iTuens, you have:
1. "Sync music" checked
2. Either "All songs and playlists" or "Selected playlists" plus actual playlists selected
Correct?
And of course, in those actual playlists, there is music?
Is htis iTMS purchased music, or mp3's?

Hello, I have an ipod touch 4. It is frozen, have tried reset, have restored, it is now back to factory settings but it is still frozen.

Hello, I have an ipod touch 4. It is frozen, I have reset it and restored it several times. it has the current software loaded. I have restored it back to factory/new settings and it still wont let me access it. It is on and working etc, yet screen is frozen.

If the restore was successful (completed all steps without errs) then you have a hardware problem. An appointment at the genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My iPad 1 cannot install any apps from apple store even though it has been updated to ios 5.1.1 which is better than 4.3 that is required by most of the apps in apple store. I reset factory settings but still to no avail I cannot install any apps.

MY iPad 1 cannot install any apps

A lot of apps have current versions that require higher iOS versions than 5.1.1
But some developers allow you to download older compatible versions of their apps. If the app is free then try downloading the current version on your computer's iTunes so that it's in your account's 'purchase' history, and then in the Purchased tab in the App Store app on your iPad see if you can download an older compatible version of the app. If the app is paid-for then try contacting the developer first and see if that will work with their app (and if they have a version compatible with iOS 5.1.1 available) - don't buy the app until you know that it will work.
There is also this page for finding current apps that require iOS 5.1.1 or lower : https://sites.google.com/site/appleclubfhs/support/advice-and-articles/finding-a pps-for-older-devices#5.1.1

Best way to reset iPad 1 back to factory settings?

I never use my iPad and have decided to sell it. I was wondering what is the best way to reset it to the factory settings? Thru iTunes or just straight from the iPad itself??
Thanks in advanced.

There are two ways.
The first way direct on the iPad - go to Settings > General > Reset and select Erase All Content and Settings. This is a secure erase - everything but iOS and the included apps.
The 2nd way is by restoring the iPad with iTunes on your computer as a new iPad or not from the backup.
