Did you actually Restore it?
Did it finish Restoring?
Try putting the iPod into Disk mode.

  • Can the iPad get a virus using a public WiFi?

    If I went to a public WiFi spot (airport, hotels, McDonalds, etc.) can my iPad get hit with a virus being that it's not protected with an antivirus?

    No, it cannot. The iPad is a closed system and you cannot download the types of things that would normally infect a windows computer.

  • Can the iPhone get a virus from a link in an email?

    While trying to delete a suspicious email, my phone accidentally opened the email and clicked the link. Could I get a virus from this? Thanks!

    Not unless it's been jailbroken. If you supplied any personal information to the site you accidentally went to, consider it to be compromised.

  • Can your ipod get to hot it wont come on?

    what happens if your ipod gets too hot?

    If you are using it, you will get a warning message and the iPod will automatically shut down.  So I guess that if it too hot when you are not using it it will not turn on.

  • TS3274 Can an iPad get a virus or Trojan infection?

  • Can an iphone get a virus

    my phone powered off earlier and now is saying connect to itunes... when i do it doesnt reconize the phone and powers off again.
    PLEASE HELP

    Your question has nothing to do with malware.
    You must be a windows user to automatically believe all problems are caused by a virus.

  • HT4061 I opened a link from a spam e.mail. will it effect my iPad? can my iPad get viruses

    I opened a link from an e.mail that turned out to be a spam, will it effect my iPad, can my iPad get a virus?

    Yes. As long as you practice safe internetting. If you click on a phishing mail and enter your info into a bad site, your info is just as compromised as if you entered it on a computer. You can still be phished on an ipad. It will give you protection from viruses (they literally can't run) but your data is only as safe as your actions.

  • Can I get a virus on my iPod touch?

    I have not heard of an virus that can infect an unjailbroken iPod. However, if you get an infected item on your iPod and transfer that to your computer that may infect the computer if opens or something similar on the computer.

  • Can you get a virus on your ipod?

    This is for my Ipod touch 4g. Ok so i opened this email and it (was from someone i know) thinking that it was a harmless quiz or webpage. The email told me to click this link and nothing happened ( THIS HAPPENED IN MY IPOD). Then the next day my friend told that it was a virus and not to click it. When you click it, it sends the same virus to everyone in your contact list. I don't know if you can get a virus on your ipod though. Some people said yes and some people said no...Someone please help me a.s.a.p

    Its only possible if that specific virus was initially designed to affect iPods. However most hackers would prefer to set spyware and malware to your computer instead, because it holds much more valuable information.. So saying that, it most likely isn't a virus.

  • Is it possible for a iPod touch to get a virus when downloading free games off the internet? If yes, is there an antivirus program to protect the ipod. and can some of the current apps be saved from the virus damage?

    I had one game permanently just stop working, it usually does crash, but that last time it just went bad, I don't know the reason, I tried powering off iPod, relaunching game, but the game never worked again. I think it corrupted its own save file or some of its own data.
    Have you tried another game or app, do those work? If they do, then I guess you know where the problem lies, but if they all stop working, then what about apps, can apps launch?
    Lastly, apps from the app store are checked by Apple, so they are clean.

  • Can my iPod touch get a virus?

    I was wondering if my ipod touch can get a virus from safari or sumtin.
    For some reason the battery has been running out far too quickly and the date and time sometimes resets.

    There is a logical explanation for everyone of your problems... To the original problem no an ipod cannot get a virus. If your safari keeps shutting down the the coder for the site you were on is just reeeeeaaalllyy bad. For games shutting down its faulty coding once again or you have too many things open on the multi tasker. To the person with the battery running low again too many things on the multi tasker or your just playing a graphics heavy game a lot. Final thoughts: the apple ios,psx were made exceptionally well so I don't believe there aren't a virus in existence that would harm an apple product

    You should be able to connect the iPod to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over and you can then sync them to your other iPod.

  • How do i sync my ipod touch to a new pc, as i can no longer get on my old laptop?

    How do i sync my ipod touch to a new pc, as i can no longer get on my old laptop.

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.
    Have you failed to do this?  not good.
    You can transfer itunes purchases form an ipod:  File>Transfer Purchases
    You can enter a unique contact and calendar entry on the computer.  you should get the option to merge.
    You can import any pics taken with the ipod, and e-mail any pics synced to the ipod to yourself.
    The ipod is not a storage/backup device.  It simply mirrors the selected content of the computer to which you sync.

  • I have an older Ipod Touch, I bought a new one and the Itunes on my computer is too old to recognize my new Ipod Touch and cannot be updated.  Is there a creditable software program I can use to get all my old music from my old iPod Touch to the new one?

    I have an older iPod Touch, I bought a new one and the Itunes on my computer is too old to recognize my new iPod Touch and Itunes cannot be updated.  Is there a creditable software program I can use to get all my old music from my old iPod Touch to the new one?  It is my understanding that the music cannot be saved onto my new iTunes, b/c I did not have iCloud. I have over 2,000 songs I just cannot part with. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help some how!!  THANKS!

    I had the same problem with my iPad, i couldn't get the newer version of itunes because the computer was too old and my iPad couldnt sync with the old itunes. I got a PC from school a few months later so that solved the problem for me. Unfortunately i don't think there would be a program to put your music on your iPod, iTunes should be the only way to transfer files to Apple devices. What operating system are you running and what version of it is it?

  • I bought a relative's original iPad. I want to leave the apps on it and add my own pdfs to read. My itunes account is really for my iPod. the computer says that if I "Sync" the iPad will be erase, and become like my iPods. how can I just get my files onto

    I am a first-time iPad owner/user. I bought a relative's original iPad. I want to leave the apps on it and add my own pdfs to read. My itunes account is really for my iPod. iTunes message says that if I "Sync" the iPad will be erase, and become like my iPods. If I make a new iTunes account, would the apps be erased when I tried to use it?
    How can I just get my files onto this iPad, and still have the apps that my relative left there for me?
    Thank you.

    iPads sync to 1 computer only.
    All media and apps are tied to the Apple ID that purchased them.
    Without your relatives ID and password, you cannot update any of the Apps.
    I am pretty certain he is also violating Apples terms of service by giving you the apps.
