10 failed passcode attempts but nothing happened, help?

So I got 10 failed passcode attempts on my iPod but it did not erase it's data. I had the option ticked to do so, any help?

Reset your device by holding the sleep/wake and home (shown below) buttons until the apple logo pops up, that should solve the problem. Don't worry it's completely harmless.  Then, make sure it's on and try failing 10 times again

    Should I uninstall and reinstall, and if so does that cause additional problems?

    I'm having the same problem.  I used it one day and everything was fine...next day, nothing will open.  Tried uninstalling and re-installing numerous times but no change.  Tried to contact support and they don't support this product (I just purchased it in August).  Am VERY disheartened with their customer support.

  • I make an screen shot and its suposed that goes to the desktop but nothing happens, help!!

    i want to make an screen shoot and it must go to the desktop but nothing happens, help pls!!!

    Click the Apple logo at the top left hand corner and go down to Force Quit. Then force the Finder to restart/quit.
    Otherwise you can use the Command-Option-Escape short cut keys to open up Force Quit and force the Finder to quit.

  • Blackscreen, chime sounds but nothing happens, help pls!

    as preface the powerbook's dvd drive as on all of my powerbooks does not work anymore....
    when i press the restart button the chime sounds and there is some HD acivity but the screen stays black, this happened after it was working just fine and i did a restart. i tried pressing the restart button for a while to reset. nothing.
    thank you!

    About the only thing you can do is to reset the PMU and PRAM, and try a safe start. If none of those work, without a working DVD drive, or the ability to see anything on the screen, it's a trip to your local Apple store or Apple Authorized Service provider.

  • Toshiba equium a100-147- light turns on but nothing happens - HELP

    My mum has a toshiba equium a100-147, and it doesn't appear to want to turn on. 
    The power light sometimes only comes on very dim when you pess the power button, other times it comes on bright. 
    I've tried unplugging the HDD and putting it back in, tried it with just one of the each sticks of ram in, checked that it's just a screen issue by plugging it into an external HDD, all with no luck. I did even unplug and plug the screen into the laptop itself just incase the cable came a bit loose. 
    Basically though, it does turn on, like the fans and the light comes on, but absolutely nothing else happens. The screen doesn't turn on at all.
    Anything I can do?

    That doesn't appear to be a US model, and this is the forums for Toshiba USA. You may want to contact Toshiba in your region. If it's a European model, you could check the Toshiba Europe forums.

  • I powered my ipod off but when i tried to turn it back on it said i needed to connect to itunes. i tried but nothing happened HELP!!!!

    Help me
    nothings happening!!!

    Try:
    - 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.

    You don't need iDVD unless you are going to make DVDs. If you are just trying to share files, iDVD won't help you at all.
    What you want to do is in iMovie, choose File/Share/File, and export that way. It creates an .mp4 file that should be readable on Macs or Windows.
    You could also File/Share/YouTube if you don't mind posting them to YouTube, because of course YouTube videos are watchable by any Mac or Windows computer made in the last 10 years.

  • HT1719 My itunes doesn't list "devices" above the playlist.  How can I sync the music I have purchased to my new ipod shuffle if it doesn't give me the option?  The shuffle is plugged into my computer, but nothing happens.  Help please!

    My itunes account doesn't list "devices" above the playlist, as the syncing instructions give.  How can I sync the itunes I have purchased & downloaded to my computer, to my ipod shuffle?  The device is plugged into my computer, but nothing happens.  Shouldn't the computer recognize the device? It doesn't.  Please help!

    As a test, shut down your computer and disconnect ALL USB devices.  Do this procedure to Reset the shuffle
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1655
    Start up computer with nothing connected, except for standard keyboard and mouse (if it's not a laptop).  Run iTunes.  Connect shuffle to a direct USB port on the computer.  See if there's any improvement,
    If the shuffle is now recognized, there may have been a USB device conflict previously, or maybe all of the devices connected at the same time overloads the USB bus (for power).  An iPod charges its battery while connected, so it is a high-power USB device.

  • I recently deleted a partition on my mac that was intended to install windows. Now it is just blank space. I attempt to resize my Macintosh HD partition to cover entire hard drive space and hit apply but nothing happens (disk utility). Any ideas?

    I have a few problems...
    I wanted to make a partition to install windows, I tried to use bootcamp 5 where it wanted to partition and install windows at the same time. I do not have a cd of windows but instead had it on a flash drive. Bootcamp couldn't find it. Instead I was reading forums and found that there was another way to install windows by partioning your harddrive using the disk utility, downloading the bootcamp drivers, and installing rEFIt (an app that when starting the compouter a menu would come up to boot windows from the flashdrive). I try that and the windows install screen gets me to the point where I pick a partition. I attempt to pick the partitioned drive but a message comes up telling me that "this is of the GPT partition style" and windows cannot be installed on the drive.
    So now I went back to disk utility and deleted the partition but there is still blank space. I wanted to retry and install windows through bootcamp (somehow) but a message comes up that there cannot be any partitions or that a partition must be created using bootcamp. SO i keep trying to drag the partition over the blank space and hit apply but nothing happens.
    By the way I was trying to install windows 8 pro, some forums would say that you cant install win8 however I found others that said you could. How do I fix my partition and how do I use bootcamp to install windows (preferrably 8)?

    Csound1 What Ive been trying to explain is that I have been running bootcamp, I open the app where the first screen is the introduction, i hit continue, the first time I select "download the latest windows support software fromm Apple" then I return and instead select "Install Windows 7." Then hit continue. The third screen is where I "Create a Partition for Windows" I set Windows to 80 gigs then hit INSTALL. As stated before Bootcamp cannot find the install drivers saying "The installer disc could not be found." My windows software is on a USB drive not a disc, I tried using a virtual disc reader to make it appear that the windows software was running on a disc, still no luck. What I would like to know is how to install windows on bootcamp.
