Does anyone know how to unlock an ipod touch that says try again in 23,279,072 minutes?
My 4 year old somehow locked my old ipod touch and it says try again in over 23 million minutes. I have followed all the steps I can find so far and nothing works.
Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
If you previously synced to the computer then you may be able to recover use of the iPod without erasing the iPod by following the instructions here:
Disabled Recovery-must use syncing computer.

Hi, does anyone know if Apple ever sold ipod touch 4G on rectangle clear flat box, instead of round edge clear box?
Not a 4G. Thats something I have never seen before. But then again, the thinner 4G wouldn't be able to sit still in the case of a bulky 2nd or 3rd gen. So if it isn't sliding and its in original packaging, I would trust it. No one would go through the trouble to spend money to make a mold to stick a knockoff in a case. I say its fine. How is it running?

Does anyone know when do the latest iPod Touch ship out in the US?
I pre-ordered the latest iPod touch (blue) and it's been close to a month now. Still no word from Apple on when they're going to release it for shipping here in the US. Does anyone know when in October is it going to be released?
I know the pain of waiting. I waited 2 months for a liquid-cooled PowerMac G5 after they were introduced. They had issues with leaks.
I read there are quality control issues with the new iPhone 5. Some new units out of the box have nick and scratches in them. They are probably trying to rectify that for iPods too, and that may be slowing production.

i am trying to unlock my son's computer that we bought from a school supply store. one of my kids changed the administrator user name but they can't remember what the changed it to. the computer is stuck on the login in screen and the password is blank. please help
If you have the OS X installation discs for this computer, then I suggest you erase the hard drive and install a fresh copy of OS X so you can set up an admin account only accessible to you. Create separate managed user accounts for each of your children.
This will prevent your children from making any changes to the accounts of their siblings since you will retain the only authority to make such changes. This would be accomplished through the Parental Controls options of Accounts in System Preferences.
If you need help with this let us know. -
Does anyone know how to retrieve an ipod serial number from your computer or via any other means
I have I believe a 5th gen Ipod the older ones 30gb white with video...It was stolen and I have no record of the serial number which I need to include on the police report.. Apple could not help me...is there a way to retrieve it from my computer since I have used ipod with Itunes.
Run an iTunes device connectivity test. Near the end of the report there should be a field indicating the last iPod that was synced with that particular iTunes library. It will include the serial # of the device. So if you have already synced another device since then, I'm afraid you are out of luck.
See here for instructions on running a device connectivity test.

Does anyone know how to unlock an iPad if the code is forgotten?
Is there anyway of unlocking an iPad if the code is forgotten? Thank you!!
If you've forgotten the passcode then you will need to connect the iPad to the computer that you normally sync to and you should then be able to reset the iPad and restore/re-sync your content to it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212) - you may need to put the iPad into recovery mode to be able to reset it : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
If you do it via a different computer then :
If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.
