How can I restore icons for apps to my iPod Touch? After the OS upgrade, I had to reload apps. Some apps now do not show (can find in search but I want the icons back).

I upgraded to iOS 5.1 and had to reload all my apps. They take more than the max allowed pages so I had some in folders prior to upgrade. Now some do not appear. I can search but they are commonly used apps & I want to restore the icon to the screen. How can they be restored? I now have enough in folders that there is room for all the icons.

Just checked my info, I have an 8gb iPod Touch, 4G, using Version 6.0 (10A403)

  • How do I restore my iPhone? It has iPod touch information on it (pictures, keyboard is different - no more special symbols, etc.)

    How do I restore my iPhone? It has iPod touch information on it, like old pictures that I had on my iPod touch (which I don't use anymore), and the keyboard has changed. Before I could use special icons and symbols, and now it's just basic (no shapes or anything). Is there any way to restore my iPhone to the condition that I bought it in? I don't want to have to buy another one, since I just got it.
    I also recently changed my Apple ID and password...could this have anything to do with getting my iPhone messed up?

  • I can't recall my passcode to my older iPod touch (after the newer one got stolen) and it's not showing up in iTunes, how can I restore it to clear the passcode?

    I can't recall the passcode to my older iPod, iPod touch 2g 8GB, (someone stole my 4g) and it's not showing up in iTunes, is there any other way to do a 'restore' to clear the old passcode and be able to access the iPod? Anyone???

    The only way is to restore the iPOd via iTunes. Have you tried:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    P
    Have yu tried setting your iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Next wold be to place the iPod in recovery mode to see if iTunes will see it. For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

  • Can you restore an iTunes Library from an iPod Touch??

    I had a hard drive crash on my PC and lost my iTunes Library. Can I recreate it from my iPod Touch? My fear is that I'll connect my iPod and everything will be erased. I have not yet downloaded new iTunes s/w.

    Open iTunes first and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices and check the box "Prevent iPods and iPhones from syncing automatically" and choose Ok before connecting your device.
    iTunes will only give you the option to copy your iTunes Store purchases directly from an iPod to the computer, you'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
    Purchased applications can be downloaded over again, see this article for details: How to redownload purchased applications from the App Store
    For everything else (music from CDs etc.) there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod Touch or iPhone. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer data (such as playcounts and ratings), movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well.
    A selection of iPod/iPhone to iTunes utilities:
    Senuti Mac Only (iPod Touch & iPhone compatible)
    SharePod Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    TuneJack Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPodRip Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    Music Rescue Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod Music Liberator Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iGadget Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    TouchCopy Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    Once you have recovered everything from the iPod and your iTunes library has been rebuilt it will be safe to sync again.
    I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive

  • How do I restore an older backup to my iPod Touch 5g?

    I did a reset of my iPod Touch 5g when a lot of storage got locked, would not release, after I had deleted a large amount of music.  Redoing all of the settings will be a royal pain!
    I have an older backup (from before iOS8 update I think) on my PC.  I would like to restore that backup.  The restore routine in iTunes only shows the most recent backup, but I found some older ones in the C:\Users\<name>\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup folder, one that matches the list of backups shown under Preferences | Devices.  How do I make that backup available to the restore routine?

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.                        
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings

    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.

  • TS4009 how to change apple id for icloud on an ipod touch

    I recently had to change my email address on my apple ID can it will not let me change in on icoud on my ipod touch.. it's greyed out and I cannot click on it to change it.. Please help as I am in major need of a backup

    If you want to restore to an iCloud backup you have to erase the device and go back throught the initial setup screens.  If you have any data on your phone now that is not in the backup that you want to save you'll need to do that first.  Then go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings.  You will then go through the setup screens as you did when the phone was new. When given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup (see image below).  Be sure you are connected to wifi and your charger as this will take some time to finish.
    After restoring, turn on your iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. in Settings>iCloud and this data will be synced back to your phone.

  • After a serios crash I had to reload windows 7 and now I can't sync my ipad

    Can anyone help please?
    I needed to reload windows 7 on to my laptop after a serious issue - now I cannot sync my iPad. Is there an easier solution other than to erase my library and start again?

    Download the latest version of iTunes and do a reinstall of I tunes.  The windows redo may have erased or replaced some of the dll files needed for I tunes to work.  If you do a reinstall, it will not disturb you content.

  • After updating IPhoto to 9.5.1 my newly burned IDVD disks will not show on my Bluray player but will on my regular player.  I burned the disk the same way as I did before Iphoto update.

    My Apple computer has OSX Version 10.9.3 installed, IPHOTO 9.5.1, IMOVIE 7.1.4 and IDVD 7.1.2.  Before I installed OSX and IPHOTO 9.5.1 updates I could burn disks of my videos and they would show on all my DVD players and still do.  The disks I recently burns will not show on my Samsung Blu-ray player, but, will show on my regular player.  I tried in both Magic DVD and One Step DVD From Movies with the same results.  I used the same process before and after the problem.  I am 75 years old and am not as computer savvy so I am not sure were to start troubleshooting the problem.  Any help would be appreciated.

    What brand and type of DVD disk did you use?  The most recommended brands around here are Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R.
    What speed did you burn at?  It's recommended to burn at the slowest speed possible to ensure the best quality disk, 2x -4x.
    I have a Sony BlueRay player that will not take most of my home burned disks.  It seems to be more particular.

    There are countless apps besides to read pdf, most probably better than ibooks, just search on that term in the app store.  GoodReader is a popular one.

  • Why can't I transfer a song to my iPod Touch after I have deleted it from my iPod?

    The song is still in iTunes but won't transfer to my iPod any more. I used to do this weekly - adding songs to use for Story Times and then deleting them. I could always transfer them again. Now I can't. I have only noticed this since the latest update.

    iTunes: Frequently asked questions about viewing and syncing videos
    iTunes: May be unable to transfer videos to iPhone, iPad, or iPod
    What model iPod do you have? On the 4G and later can play/sync HD videos. You may have t use a third-party program to convert to compatible format.

  • I cannot open my apps on my iPod touch 4th generation. Every time I open an app it sends me back to the main page

    I cannot open my apps on my iPod touch 4th generation. Every time I try to open an app it sends me back to the app selection thing.

    Try a hard reset first. Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear. 
    If still no luck, try downloading and installing a new app from the App Store.  Doing so has cleared the issue up for several users.

    If you are in the USA (iTunes Radio is only USA now)
    - 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.
    It worked for others
