Help!! Ipod couldn't update, so tried to DFU mode and it still wont update or even turn on!!
Help! My Ipod touch won't update! When I try to update it gives me a "network timed out" error message. I have tried everything. Disabling my antivirus, turning off my firewall, changing the time sync. So I tried to restore it in DFU mode, but it still is givng me a "network timed out" message. Now my ipod is blank and won't restore or update. What can I do? Have gone both to the apple store and geek sqaud for help and both blame it on each other. Any ideas?
Disabling the computer's security software (firewall and antivirus) usually resolves that error.

I tried to put my ipod in dfu mode and now it wont turn back on?
my ipod was diabled and it said i had to connect it to itunes. then i was told to put it into dfu mode. i tried to do that but now my ipod wont turn back on. HELP?
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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 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.

I put my iPod Touch into DFU mode and now it wont turn on
I put my iPod touch into DFU mode (i dont even know what that is!) after spending 6 hours trying to restore it-long story the IOS 6 download- and now I need to turn it on. I need it for tommarow.
Help Please????No, ive only tried the one.

Why does my iPod touch automatically go out of DFU mode, and not stay in it until I turn it on?
I put my iPod touch 4g intoDFU mode, then after 10 minutes or so, it turns on with iBoot. I know that DFU mode bypasses iBoot. It automatically boots out from DFU mode. Please help me, because I want to restore it.
Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. -
I haven't been able to update my phone to the latest version of iOS because i dont have enough room on my phone and i cant erase the pics from my photostream except for on itunes and its driving me crazy
Looks like a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is required...
Be sure to make an appointment first... -
My 160GB ipod classic stopped whilst playing music and will not turn back on despite having almost a full battery. I have tried connecting to itunes and a docking station but will not turn on at all - HELP?!
I've had this from new for 2 years, the battery life is excellent and lasts for days so I know it's not a power issue as it was fully charged that morning. No signs of connection in itunes, it's not showing as a connected device.
Can anyone please help?Hi gscoops,

The first article linked has what to do if it is not powering on unless plugged in. The second article addresses the error you are receiving when trying to restore.

My iPhone 4 screen shattered so I had to buy a new one. I backed up my shattered iPhone to iTunes so that I could restore my new one. When I went to restore it, it said that I had an incorrect password although I know it was right. I tried changing the password and it still told me that I had an incorrect password. So now my new phone has lost all its pictures, its music, its apps.... is there anything I can do to get my phone to restore?? PLEASE HELP!
If you can't get the password correct, you CANNOT restore from that backup.
However, if you've been using your phone as recommended by Apple, there should be minimal data loss.
Your iTunes library is on your computer, so you can synch all your apps, music, movies, ringtones, etc, on to your new phone.
Similarly, contacts should be synched to Address Book, Outlook, or a cloud service for you to easily synch back to your new phone.
Pictures taken from your old phone and not synched to your computer are lost, but you would have been synching those photos to your computer frequently as recommended. Other photos that you synch TO your iPhone are still on your computer.
You won't be able to get text messages back. -
I have the iPod 5th gen. and my iPod wont connect to my wifi. I've tried everything. i rest my wifi networks and it still wont work. What do I do??
Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

So I just updated my iphone 4S to iOS 6 and was having fun trying the panorama pictures, and all of the sudden my phone turned off (it was fully charged so it's not out of batery and it felt warm) and it has since not turned on again. Suggestions?
Even if it is a hardware problem they should fix it regardless of warranty. If you buy a car and after 1.5 years the doors fall off due to a failure in their design and construction, do you think the car manufacturer could pull off what Apple is trying to do? Yes the car still delivers its primary objective of driving from A to B, but significant functionality has been lost due to their fault.
It is the same with this iPhone wifi problem. Apple are a disgrace, I have had significant Apple Hardware failures with my MacBook Pro and iPhone within 2 years of purchase. Pathetic quality.
