Any idea y it takes like 13 hrs to do a "restore to factory settings" and y can't Apple help with this??

Trying to do restore to factory settings as Apple asked me to yet it says it will take 13 hrs!!! *** any help plz or ideas

If you go to Settings do you see an entry for the Nike app? There is no way to delete or hide that app?
Have you tired using the Spotlight search? Maybe you just can't find it.
Next would be to restore a gain. First from backup then next to factory settings/new iPod.
The Nike app you can download/install
Nike+ Running for iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPod touch (3rd generation), iPod touch (4th generation), iPod touch (5th generation) and iPad on the iTunes App Store
Does work on the iPOd. You just do not get all the information that GPS/cellular connection can get. You will still be able to get distance/footstrikes like the installed app an you do not need the shoe sensor.. It uses the built-in sensors on the iPod

Is it normal for apple tv to take up to 90 minutes to restore to factory settings?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
No, that's not normal, should be no more than a couple of minutes. Updating afterwards may take a little longer since it depends on your network speeds.

My ipod jumps from one screen / app to another on it's own. Sometimes I can't unlock or even shut off. I've tried the reset, I've tried back up, even tried restoring to factory settings and is still having problem. Any ideas of what I can do.

When you still have the problem after restoring to factory defaults/new iPod then you very likely have a hardware problem and an appointment a th Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My ipad won't start up. I downloaded iTunes on my pc while my iPad was charging - could this have caused the problem? I don't want to restore to factory settings and lose data. Any ideas or solutions? Thanks, Linda

My ipad won't start up. I downloaded iTunes on my pc while my iPad was charging - could this have caused the problem? I don't want to restore to factory settings and lose data. I also recently successfully paired my ipad with a bluetooth keypad. Any ideas or solutions? Thanks, L

FYI, your iPad will charge much faster if you plug it directly into an electrical outlet.
When doing the reset, as Jackkcc suggests, make sure you let go of both buttons fairly promptly after the apple image appears, then wait another 10 seconds or so for the iPad to start up. Note that a reset does not alter any data or settings.

My iPad will not make any sound whatsoever. I reset it to factory settings and still no sound. Help

Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. It can be used as a rotation lock to keep the screen from automatically reorienting itself as you move around, but you need to have the tablet’s settings configured properly. That same switch, right above the volume buttons, can also be set to function instead as a mute button to silence certain types of audio.
If the switch is set to work as a mute button, you can change its purpose to “screen-rotation lock” by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen. On the Settings screen, tap General on the left side, and on the right side of the screen flick down to “Use Side Switch to.” Tap to select Lock Rotation or Mute to set the button’s function. Even if you set the side switch for your preferred use, you can still mute the Mini or lock the screen. Just double-click the Home button, and when the panel of apps appears along the bottom edge of the screen, flick the row from left to right with your finger. Tap the icon on the far left side of the row to either lock the iPad’s screen or mute the iPad’s alerts, notifications and sound effects. Music, podcasts and video are not muted unless you turn the volume all the way down.

I recently got a hand-me-down Macbook (white) 2010 and want to restore to factory settings. The computer did not come with any discs. It is running 10.6.8 and I purchased 10.6.3 recently to upgrade my MacBook Pro. Can I use that to restore the MacBook?

I want to give the hand-me-down to my kids so they will stay off my MacBook Pro I'd like to start fresh with the MacBook, remove all the former owners information, restore it to factory settings, but it did not come with any installation discs, so I don't know what to do. I recently purchased Snow Lepoard for my 2008 MacBook Pro. Can I use that to restore the MacBook? Also, the former owner purchased Microsoft Office (ugh) with the computer but again, no installation discs. How do I keep that when I restore?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

I purchased a mini to HDMI cable and tried to connect to the TV but the TV is not recognizing the computer. I attempted to set sound and display settings under the "my Preferences" utility with no success. Again, I'm not sure if I need to upgrade my OS software Any Suggestions?

How long does it take for an ipod to be restored to factory settings?

I am currently restoring my ipod to factory settings so is it supposed to take long it has been an hr now

No, it should not take that long. So try closing the iPod Updater. Will it close? (This is a troubleshooting step, try it)

HT1414 Is there any way to recover the backup of your iPhone after restoring to factory settings?

I restored my iPhone4 to factoring settings without realizing it. I need some of the things that were on my last backup before i restored it. I was wondering if there was any way to reverse this.

With an iTunes back up you can find if you have one by following the steps below if you have a PC/Mac.
Windows:
Edit>Preferences>Devices
Mac:
iTunes>Preferences>Devices
With iCloud follow the steps below.
1. Go to Settings>iCloud
2. Sign In
3. Tap Storage & Back up
4. Manage Storage
This will show back ups made on iCloud.
If you have a back in iTunes or iCloud restore from that back up and see whatdatat comes back on the phone.
Hope this helps

TS1424 IPOD WONT CONNECT TO ITUNES STORE I'VE TRIED EVERYTHING EVEN RESTORED BACK TO FACTORY DEFAULT, CAN ANY ONE HELP WITH THIS

Every time I try to get on itunes store on my ipod it tells me that it "cannot connect to itunes store", I've tried everything even restored the ipod to factory settings and nothing, can some one please give a solution that will work?

Hi datnativeBUNNZ,
If your iPod can't connect to the iTunes store, check out this article for some additional troubleshooting steps:
Can't connect to the iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1368
Troubleshooting on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking on Check for Update in your device's Summary page in iTunes.
Check and verify that you are in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you are on a 3G capable device, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
Note: If connected to 3G, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
Check to make sure you have an active internet connection. You can check the User Guide for your device for help with connecting to the internet.
Check to make sure other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the internet.
Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router
If the issue still persists see, iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections or iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections.
Take care!

This shouldn't happen. Take it back since it's new.

From this Apple support document: iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
This device is not eligible for the requested build: Also sometimes displayed as an "error 3194." If you receive this alert, update to the latest version of iTunes. Third-party security software or router security settings can also cause this issue. To resolve this, follow Troubleshooting security software issues.
Downgrading to a previous version of iOS is not supported. If you have installed software to perform unauthorized modifications to your iOS device, that software may have redirected connections to the update server (gs.apple.com) within the Hosts file. First you must uninstall the unauthorized modification software from the computer, then edit out the "gs.apple.com" redirect from the hosts file, and then restart the computer for the host file changes to take affect. For steps to edit the Hosts file and allow iTunes to communicate with the update server, see iTunes: Troubleshooting iTunes Store on your computer, iPhone, iPad, or iPod—follow steps under the headingBlocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you do not uninstall the unauthorized modification software prior to editing the hosts file, that software may automatically modify the hosts file again on restart. Also, using an older or modified .ipsw file can cause this issue. Try moving the current .ipsw file, or try restoring in a new user to ensure that iTunes downloads a new .ipsw.

Can Someone help with this crash report - Any Ideas?

Hello,
Since OS X 10.4.6 Jedi Knight II Multiplayer crashes. It was perfectly fine before 10.4.6, and I can get it to run under classic. The Single-player app also works perfectly.
The multi-player game will crash when trying to load certain maps.
It generates the following crash report.
CGFontKey.c:227: failed assertion `id[k].qx <= kCGFontSharedCacheKeyMaxQ'
Does anyone have any ideas?
I'd like to get this fixed, as I'd rather remove Classic from my system.
Thanks

Thanks for the quick reply.
I've cleaned all font caches and have restored all fonts back to their original state. Still no joy. I have the same problem on my G4 at work, but not on my G3 iBook. (The iBook isn't fast enough to run the game adequately though).
I wonder if there was anything specific that changed between 10.4.5 and 10.4.6 that caused this - such as a graphics card update -that would cause this. I've tried e-mailing the game developer, but no joy from them.
Thanks for the suggestion though.

My iPod classic will dload to 26.5 gigs and then stop syncing. There are 122 gigs free. Same results after restoring the factory setting and trying a manual download. Any ideas?

First time user on this forum, so I appreciate any help from anyone. I load up some 80-90 gigs of video to download and it takes in maybe 200 mb and says 'IPod Sync is Complete" I've restored the factory settings, tried doing it manually and nothing works. It will add to my iPhone, so I'm guessing the problem is with the device.

Sorry, Bilbo...I have the latest version (2.0.4) and have over 140 g. free space. Even movies that were on there early but have been deleted cannot be re-added to the iPod. I have followed the instructions in that link, both automatic and manual and nothing seems to do the trick. It initially acknowledges that there are some scores and scores of movies to download, showing on the spacebar that it anticipates some 90 gigs need to be synced. But then it says 'sync completed', lays down the shovel and calls it a day.
Any ideas outside the given solutions?
