Hi my ipod touch has been locked and i dont know the password to it. What do i do because my computer says it has to be unlocked before i can do anything. So if you have an answer that would be great thanks.

You have to restore the iPod.
Launch iTunes, and place the device in Recovery Mode per the instructions here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • Hi, my iPod touch has been unable to sync since downloading the new cloud software.  It says: An error occurred while restoring this iPod (-34)  So my music is not on it.  it doesn't have 3G so the cloud is pointless anyway.  Music is all I use on it.

    Try restoring the iPod. First from backup and if problem persists, restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

    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 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.

    You have to restore it through iTunes.  Do not restore from backup.  Setup as new.

  • When we got our computer it all ready had 2 user names on it Administrator and Teacher and we dont know the passwords for them.

    When we got our computer it all ready had 2 user names on it Administrator and Teacher and we dont know the passwords for them.

    Assuming you have been able to set yourself up as an Administrator so far, you can just go into Applications>System Preferences>Users & Groups and delete the other three accounts by highlighting them one at a time in the left hand column and clicking the "Minus" symbol at the bottom of the column.
    If you have NOT been able to set yourself up as an Administrator also so far, then the following article should help:

  • My iPod Touch has been locked out for 22 million minutes, and will not let me restore it?

    I hadn't used my iPod in at least a few weeks prior to turning it on and charging it. After I did, it gave me a notification that said, "Disabled for 22, 311, 091 minutes." So I looked into it and decided to restore my iPod using iTunes on my computer. However, after attempting to restore it, it told me that I would have to enter a passcode on it. I do not have any access to other computers, and it won't connect to the Internet to use Find My iPhone unless I used voice command to access FaceTime -- which only works when it is unlocked. I know the password, but I really don't want to wait for a month or so to access it. How do I fix this?
