How do i get my ipod unlocked?

My ipod is disable and it wont let me unlock it on itunes. How do i get it unlocked?

Unfortunately, you must restore it in iTunes on your computer. There is no way to retrieve a forgotten pass lock code.
You will need to restore your device from the same computer that you most recently synced to, and restore the device. See - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414.
If it has been disabled after entering the wrong passcode - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212.

How do i get my ipod unlocked when in diabled mode?

how do i get my ipod unlocked when it is in disabled mode? After several attempts to put password in.I have already been on Itunes and restored an updated everything and still wont work.

Restore. Everything except the password will be restored. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. Be forewarned that it takes a long time. 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.

Locked Out, Forgot Lock or Restrictions Passcode, Need to Restore Your Device: Alternative Solutions
    1. Forgot passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support
    2. Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support
    3. About Restrictions (parental controls) on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
If all else fails: Place your device into recovery (DFU-Device Firmware Upgrade) mode:
Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
   1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the
       other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
   2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds
       until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
              * If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
                Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
                release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
       device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
       let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
       charge, and then start with step 2 again.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
       When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
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 iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

How do i get my ipod 5 unlock? i cant get past the home screen lock (home screen lock is what i need unlocked) plz help

how do i get my ipod 5 unlocked from the homescreen? plz help

If you have a passcode to the screen lock that you've forgotten, restore the iPod from the computer to which the iPod is synced. For information and instructions, see:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
If that will not work, you'll need to put the iPod into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
If that still doesn't work, as a last resort try DFU mode:

How do I get my ipod to play a playlist from reverse order? (Start with recently added song instead of first added)

How do I get my ipod to play a playlist from reverse order? (Start with recently added song instead of first added)
So I'm adding new songs to a very old playlist? Is there anyway that when I add them, they automatically go to top of playlist? How about getting one song to the top of a playlist. That drag to arrange function is very annoying because it is slow and the playlist does not scroll up very well on a PC.

Make a new playlist by pressing the little plus button at the very lower left corner of iTunes. An new playlist will appear in the Source pane called "untitled playlist". While the name is highlighted, you can change it to whatever you want. Drag all of the tracks from all the albums that comprise a single book to that playlist. Sync that playlist to your iPod.

How do I get Apple to unlock a Verizon unlocked 4s to use domestically on a GSM network?

I have 4 iPhone 4S's in my family. The contract with Verizon ended on December 5, 2013. Early in 2014 I requested from Verizon that all 4 iPhones be unlocked, which was done and confirmed by Verizon. However, subsequently I have learned that the Verizon unlocking only allows use on international GSM networks (which of course shows that the 4S is capable of GSM usage), and I want to be able to use them domestically. Apparently, Apple maintains a kind of Black list to restrict usage of the phone to the original domestic carrier. This is in contradiction to the "Unlocking Consumer Choice and Wireless Competition Act", or S.517/Public Law 113-144, which went into effect August 1, 2014.
When I insert a active AT&T GSM SIM card into the 4S I receive the following notice:
The SIM card that you currently have installed in this iPhone is from a carrier that is not supported under the activation policy that is currently assigned by the activation server. This is not a hardware issue with the iPhone. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iPhone be unlocked by your carrier. Please contact Apple for more information.

It's funny that you're totally misreading and understand that law. All it does is make it legal to 'jailbreak' your device. It doesn't force the wireless carrier to allow you to unlock the device under the normal means.
Previously, jailbreaking your device was illegal. Now, it's not. But it doesn't mean that the wireless carrier, or anyone else, has to provide assistance to you.
Show me where in that law that it states that a wireless carrier must assist you.

You did install the latest iTunes (10.5) right? If the problem was that iTunes does not see the iPod try:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
or
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X

It sounds like you have a 1G iPod Touch, in which case you can only upgrade to iOS version 3.1. Here is a link to purchase the update.

How do I get an iPod touch to turn on other than the normal way. It has been dropped and all I can get is a blank screen. Have tried holding the HOME button down for 30 sec. but that didn't work.

How does one get an iPod nano to turn on other than the "normal" way? This one has been dropped and all I can get is a blank screen. I have tried holding down the HOME button to restart it but no go. When I connect it to my computer, I am told to enter the PASSCODE which I cannot do as there is no touchpad.

David ..
Your topic refers to an iPod touch
Then you say: How does one get an iPod nano to turn on ......
If it's an iPod touch, try a reset.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, whether it's an iPod nano or touch, it probably needs service > Apple - Support - Service Answer Center
