Hello, i recently bought an ipod touch 5th generation and it came with a passcode which i did not know, it is now disabled and i am wondering on how to unlock it using itunes on the computer
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
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.
However, you will likely run again the Activation Lock
iCloud: Find My iPhone Activation Lock in iOS 7
You either have to get the Apple ID and password of the previous owner and enter it or have them remove the iPod from their account.

I bought a Mac PowerBook in 2008. It came with InDesign CS3. I did not use it. My computer was stolen in 2014. I had backed up the hard drive. I reinstalled on my new Mac laptop. I want to use the CS3 now. It will not download or install. What do I do?
From where are you trying to download it?

Do all Ipod 5th generations have a camera on back of Ipod?
Do all 5th generation Ipods have a camera on the back of them?
No only the 32+ Gb iPod touchs have a rear facing camera, the 16Gb only has a front facing camera.

Does the iPod 5th generation have both cameras?
I'm interested in purchasing one, but I need to know whether it contains both cameras. Also, is it possible to turn an iPod 4th generation in for the 5th generation?
1. Yes, except for the 2013 16GB models.
2. You'll probably need to pay more to do this; Apple won't give you more than 10% off the price of a new one.

- Try another cable.
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Try on another computer to determine if computer or iPod problem
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

I forgot to mention it is an ipad 4 with the new applecare+. I met with the owner at verizon where he disconnected the service and I added it to my verizon plan so I know it is a legit deal from Craigslist. I can't get in touch with him and the one year warranty will be up in a month.
Contact Apple and ask them...
Caveat Emptor -
I didnt know I'd be charged again for the items I have downloaded in the past. When I tried downloading some of them...it says that they are free.
See my response to your other post.

I bought an apple iPod 5th generation the other day and I cannot remember the unlock passcode. I have done the restore thing, but because I never set it up or synced it with iTunes, it does not recognize my device. It is disabled for one hour. There's only a few things that could be my passcode, but because it disables for an hour, it is time consuming trying to figure it out. What do I do? I do not care about having to erase everything since it's new and there's nothing on it, but it was never synced with iTunes.

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. -
Hello! So I have a iPod 5th generation, and I just had a recent update, it was for iOS 6.1.3, and now for some reason, I can't get the iOS 7 update. Could anyone help me?
Apple's servers are slammed right now with iOS 7 downloads AND activation requests.
Be patient and try again later. -
I bought ipod 5th generation off ebay, computer doesn't recognise it, even in disc mode. any suggestions?
Can I assume you are using iTunes 10?
But most probably, your iPod hardisk is the problem and your Windows 7 is taking a long time to read the disk filesystem.
Do a disk diagnostic first as posted by tt2, don't worry about the Mac user, Disk diagnostic refer to iPod and not the OS.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3110831?tstart=240
This wont fix your problem, but will help in troubleshooting route, as there are dozens of reasons for the failure.
Post the results here and hopefully it is not the harddisk.
Good Luck! -

HI!!!HELP?someone............new ipod 5th generation user here....pls
I bought a new ipod 5th generation (30gig)2 and a half months from now.
Problems:
1.) I accidentally/i intended to reset my ipod while still connected to pc (windows xp->how stupid of me.
2.) After resetting all videos,songs etc... are gone but pic are still in my ipod-> where did they go?deleted perhaps?
3.) I deleted the itunes, restart my pc and reinstallitunes and again and restart my pc bec itunes no longer recognize my ipod->(itunes says:i need to have an ipod software updater to restore factory settings)
4.) I go to the apple website to download latest ipod updater then i saved it to: Save to disk
5.) Then in my pc desktop an icon for adobe:ipodsetup.exe->click it but it says:There was an error opening this document.The file is already open or in use by another application.-> cant understand what it implies...
6.) So because of that i deleted all the remaining files in my ipod which was MY PICS. so it leaves my ipod no songs etc as in empty as ever.
7.) I reset it twice and turned it ON->of course not connected to pc or anything-so i checked out the SETTINGS of my ipod, then to ABOUT, then discovered that -IPOD SONGS:0,VIDEOS:0,PHOTOS:0,CAPACITY:27.8(i have no questions about this i know why 2.2 was already consumed because of the menus/internal settins whatever), but AVAILABLE:23.5!!!!!!!!->WHY?I THOUGHT IT WILL GO BACK TO 27.8, does this mean my ipod has some defects or something?i took care of my ipod has a protective crystal casing, never fall of from my hands/while being use in short its my partner in life as of now.
8.) so if anyone who has a kind heart to hear my problems please help me..thank you
ipod 5th generation (30 gig video) Windows XPWOW, you have a big problem. My first suggestion is to restore your ipod, like btabz said. Other things you could do are 1). Send it in to a electronics store or apple.
2). Get a new ipod (LAST RESORT)
3). 5 R's- See http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/

Hello,
I recently tried downloading the IOS8 to my iPod 5th generation and when it was almost done the computer said there was an error. Right after that, the iPod shut down completely and now it's on recovery mode. I plugged it in and it said that I had to restore it and update it so I could use it again but it doesn't let me. What can I do? I even did a backup before the update.
I really need help.What happens when you connect to computer and restore via iTunes?
Without knowing that:
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 another cable
- 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.
