Resetting a disabled iPod Touch 5th generation through recovery mode not working.

I bought a disabled iPod Touch 5th generation at a garage sale. I looked up how to reset it and followed every step given and it was working. It said there were about 82 minutes and it was restoring for about until 70 minutes and then a pop-up comes up saying it can't restore it because it has a password on it! Please help me.

Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall.
- Next try the manual install method of:
iDevice Troubleshooting 101 :: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch
Place the iPod in recovery mode after the firmware download is complete and then restore using the instructions in the article. Sometimes recovery mode timeouts and returns to disabled before the firmware download is complete.
- Then try on another computer

I dont remember my apple id or my password i bought it made the account an never really used it in the beginning and forgot the information and i turned it off while it was downloading new software and i havent been able to use it since what can i do? I have a bad memory.

Without the ID and password you will not be able to activate it. If you don't know your iCloud ID, you can try to find it as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5625. If you don’t know your password you can reset the password as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2617.

How can i recover my lost ipod touch 4th generation even if the battery is dead?

It has been almost a month now that ive lost my ipod touch 4th generation, ive looked everywhere and cant seem to find if, i dont have the serial number, and when i go into the locate my iphone on the apple store, it doesnt work because my batery is dead, and if noone ever finds it, he cant conect it to power suply and conect it to the internet...

Change your iTunes (Apple ID) password along with any other password that was stored in the iPod. If any passwords are associated with credit cards, contact the CC company and get your card replaced (with a new number). If any passwords are associated with a bank or any other savings institution, contact them also and discuss approprate action with them.
The "Find my..." function is pretty much useless if the device is in the hands of a thief. All that is necessary is for the thief to connect to any computer with iTunes and "Restore as new."
The only real protection you have is with the personal information on the device rather than the physical device itself. This requires action before the device is lost/stolen. If the device has significant personal information, it should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries.

I Can't Decide between a iPod Touch (5th Generation) or a iPad Mini 2

I'm looking for an apple product from Christmas. Originally the iPad Mini came to mind then I saw the Mini 2 and I also a iPod Touch. So I can't decide between a 32GB iPod Touch 5th Gen or a 32GB iPad Mini 2.
You see one of the reasons I liked the Mini was the size factor for games and music but them I said to myself that's too big for listening to music on my daily commute. So I really don't know. If it helps I already have an iPod Touch 4th Gen but it's 16GB and the charging socket only works sometimes.

I would get the Mini because the design of the 5G iPod is over two years old. It will max out iOS updates before the the Mini will.
But the desire for a smaller device may be more important.

If i already have an ipod touch 4th generation, can i upgrade to an ipod touch 5th generation?

I have an ipod touch 4th generation and i really want to get the 5th generation and I was wondering if i could upgrade instead of having to buy one for $300? And if i do upgrade will the new ipod come with the packaging (headphones,lightning cable) and how much would it cost to upgrade? please help!

Unfortunately, unless you actually work at Apple, you will have to purchase a new iPod at full retail price. Sorry.

Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem

How can I fix a frozen iPod touch 4th generation?

I tried to put my pass code in and it frozen and wouldn't unlock. The screen then went to the apple logo screen for five minutes. From the apple logo screen then went to a white screen with colorful vertical lines on the screen. It's now been on this last screen for thirty minutes. I don't really want to replace it or bring it to an apple store because the nearest store is over two hours away. I've tried to press the power and home button and I've held the power button down for five minutes with no results.
