I tried to master reset my I pod touch, now all I have is a apple skull with a flame on its head I am trying to sync and I can not get past the apple with a flame

I bought my daughter an I pod touch 3 gen. I tried to do a master reset so I could sync it with my Itunes account. After resetting, all that is showing is an apple that looks like a skull with a flame on top. Does anyone know what I am supposed to do so I can sync it?

Master reset...? Your device was jailbroken prior to you purchasing the device. The only symbol you should see on reboot is an Apple symbol. Download redsnow... google it! Download the latest version and your IPSW (ipod restore firmware) it has to be the correct version. And the "just boot tethered" should fix your device.
But that's only if you didnt back the device up. If you don't care about any of the data on the ipod then you can simply open itunes navigate to the device and click the restore button. This will restore the ipod firmware and install a fresh copy. Good luck let me know if you have any problems.

L when doing a master reset on iPhone. Have tried turning off/on with no luck. Safe reboot displays many bugs and socket is not launched.....

Yesterday while attempting to perform a master reset on my iPhone 5, I was instructed to log onto iTunes, plug my phone in and "follow" the instructions. After connecting my phone to my Mac book pro (bought a year and a half ago), the laptop recognized my phone and immediately after that, the apple icon and spinning wheel appeared. Not realizing that it was not part of the download process, I waited a couple of hours to no avail. I was informed by the person working at the phone store that the update could take 'awhile'.....I have tried turning on and off several times, and the screen remains grey with the apple icon and spinning wheel. Just performed a safe boot using the shift - command - v key and the screen shows a long list of Bug: launchctl with a message at the bottom "socket is not connected". Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I would like to point out the fact that I mentioned my phone is iPhone 4, iOS 7.1.2
I don't care if it is a known defect in iOS 8, my phone is not iOS 8 and can not be updated past 7.1.2
Your solution will not work because I can't see the group message in the first place, deleting it would not be possible.
Also, I can not wait for the update on a phone that can no longer update.

Iphone 4 is stuck. I have tried a master reset and it didn't work. it won't slide to unlock or power off. I did somehow get to the passcode screen but it didn't let me enter anything. I have also tried on a pc through itunes but since I can't unlock it, it won't let me do that either.

I have an iphone4 and i can only hear calls when i use speakerphone. I'm trying a master reset but how do i back up my contacts from my address book??

I have an iphone4 and I can only hear calls when I put them on speakerphone. The people I'm on the phone with can hear me I just cant hear them. I am about to try a master reset but how do i backup my contacts from my address book? Does itunes do that when i backed up the rest of the stuff on my phone?

Back it up in iTunes! Just make a backup of the entire device but make sure you check sync contacts and the option to add contacts from phone to address book on computer.

My iphone 5 went into search mode and I can't place or receive calls or use the internet but my text messages work. Sprint had me do a master reset and my phone doesn't work at all now I can't get it past the activation. Will I have to pay in store?

Sprint had me do a master reset and my phone doesn't work at all now I can't get it past the activation. Will I have to pay for repairs in store because I didnt get the Apple care plan when I purchased it. Sprint said it may be a phone problem not sure if I should take it to Sprint or Apple...I just need my phone

I'm sorry to learn that you are not able to make/receive calls chelseabee! (ticket number removed) results indicate that there is no issues with the network or account provisioning. Since you have already done a hard reset http://vz.to/1gBkSJc (as per your post), I recommend exploring replacement options. If your phone is within the one year manufacturers' warranty we can provide a Certified Like New replacement http://vz.to/uyYF0o as long as no physical/liquid damage exist. If your phone has sustained physical/water damage and you have insurance, you can submit a claim to the insurance company online at this link http://bit.ly/07CrqPK

I had to perform a master reset on my HTC one, before doing so the phone was backed up using the backup assistant app. Now there is no restore button I can find to get my contacts back. How do I restore my contacts?

I had to perform a Master Reset on my HTC One while trying to work through an issue. This was done with a Verizon rep on the phone and we performed a backup using backup assistant. Now I am not able to restore my contacts because I do not have a "restore" soft button when I open the backup assistant app. How do I restore my contacts?

Have you updated the dreaded Backup Assistant program? I think you need to do this first before you can restore.

If you are using a Microsoft Account for HTC restore your stuff and get off the Backup Assistant and use Windows Phone's native backup, Learn about Windows Phone backup | Windows Phone How-to (United States) and you'll never have to go through this again

How can i master reset my phone

how can i master reset my phone

1) Using iTunes, restore it or 2) on the phone itself, Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings.
Before doing this, do the following if you're going to sell it and not set it up for your use...
Settings > Messages > iMessage > Off
Settings > FaceTime > Off
Settings > iCloud > Delete Accout (this only unregisters and deletes it off the iPhone)
Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings

You cannot downgrade

My iphone 4 was master reset and i need to get the stuff off of my icloud and on to my phone

I accidentily locked myself out of my iphone 4 when i changed the password and i needed to get in to it so i had a friend of mine do a master reset so that i could get in to it. But they didnt know that i had an icloud account already so they made a new account and downloaded stuff that they knew that i had on to my phone again along with some new stuff. i have been using it for a while now but i want to get the stuff that i had on it before it got eraced back on it. is there a way that i can get the stuff off of my old account on to my phone without having to erase what i have on it now?

If you want to merge the iCloud data from the other account with your current account, you can try saving any photo stream photos that you want to keep on your phone to the camera roll, then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password when prompted and choose Delete from My iPhone (your data will still be in iCloud). Then sign into the old account to retrieve your data. Once it's on your phone, save any photo stream photos from the old account that you want to keep to the camera roll, then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password and choose Keep on My iPhone. Then go to Settings>iCloud, sign into your new account again and choose Merge with iCloud.

Recover apps on symbian 60 v5 after master reset?

I have a Nokia nuron 5230. After a master reset can you recover the apps you had installed before? The memory card still shows the same free space, so the apps are still there somewhere, I jsut can't find them through the file organizer yet

I don't think I backed them up, unelss the phone does that automatically?
I had a bunch of stuff, like opera mobile. I know I can get them back from ovi store, but I wanted to see if there was a way to restore it without having to reinstall and set them up all over again.
There is also the issue of memory. When I did a master reset, the memory card contents did not seem to change. So that means I have a lot of unusable files on there? If I reinstall the apps will the go to the same folder and replace the old files? I want to be efficient with my memory usage.
I just installed x-plore and found some hidden folders in (E:\resource\apps and e:\system\apps). Including the opera mobile folder. But I didn't find some games. Where would java games be held? Also, these folders only have like 5 mb of memory, I'm looking for like 100+ mbs of stuff. I usualyl install apps through nokia pc suite. Does it download the .sis files to a temporary file somewhere and then install the apps?
