I have a iPod touch 4G 6.1.2 and I need to restore it but I don't want to update to iOS 6.1.3 I really need help thanks if you can help

Give it a litte time.. Then
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.

How do I restore my iPod, but retrieve everything (including photos, notes, music, apps) afterwards?

There is this awful and unfair internet(wifi)-blocking system set to my iPod and selected computers throughout the house (my mother is Asian) and I'd like to get rid of it on my iPod by restoring it (so I'll be able to hook onto the wifi later), but I also want to keep my data (music, photos, notes, apps, etc) so that I won't have to redownload and redo everything.
Do I just sync my iPod to iTunes and restore my iPod when it's not connected to the computer and then when it's been restored, I hook it back up to the computer and everything will go back into my iPod? Thank you so, so much!
(Sorry I know this isn't very clear; should you have any questions, please ask!! Once again, thank you!!)

- Transfer iTunes purchases to computer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
- Transfer other music by using a ghird-party program like one of those discussed here:
Copy music
- If you have synced photos you want to trasfer then yu need a program like TouchCopy or Phone Viiew. Those do music too but are paid programs
- Transfer photos/videos taken by or saved to the iPod to the computer by:
iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
- Email the notes to yourself.
- Last, restore the iPod to factory defaulats/new iPod and sysnce yuor media to the iPod. An internet connection is required to restoring the iPod.
If you restore from backup you will just have the same problem.

That is not supported by Apple. If you are getting a network timeout error, disabling the computer's security software usuallys resolves that error.

How do I restore my ipod to factory settings, but I have a passcode lock, and my screen is broken so I can't type in my password when I connect to itunes?

Okay so I have had my ipod 4th gen for almost 2 years buy the screen has fallen out of the back casing, (I bought it as refurbished) and I am trying to reset it to factory settings, so when I get a new one I can register my device on apps/games since some apps require that you can only register on one device, but I think the thing that connects to the screen is ripped so the screen won't turn on and I can't physically touch it. What I want to know is how can I restore it with me not being able to type in the password lock since the screen is broken?
or is there a way to disable the passcode lock through the computer?

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

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 most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Some of the album artwork on my iPod is wrong. I've tried to change it many times but it doesn't change. I've decided that the easiest thing to do now would be to NOT display album artwork on my iPod. How do I set my iPod to NOT display album art?

Why don't you, instead of taking time to do that, just backup, and then restore your iPod?
Just a suggestion..

ATA bus error means that data corruption occurred during transmission over ATA bus (SATA or PATA). This type of errors can be indicated by
ICRC or ABRT error as described in the section called “ATA/ATAPI device error (non-NCQ / non-CHECK CONDITION)”.
Controller-specific error completion with error information indicating transmission error.
On some controllers, command timeout. In this case, there may be a mechanism to determine that the timeout is due to transmission error.
Unknown/random errors, timeouts and all sorts of weirdities.
As described above, transmission errors can cause wide variety of symptoms ranging from device ICRC error to random device lockup, and, for many cases, there is no way to tell if an error condition is due to transmission error or not; therefore, it's necessary to employ some kind of heuristic when dealing with errors and timeouts. For example, encountering repetitive ABRT errors for known supported command is likely to indicate ATA bus error.
Once it's determined that ATA bus errors have possibly occurred, lowering ATA bus transmission speed is one of actions which may alleviate the problem.
I'd also add; make sure you have good backups when ATA errors are frequent

I have an old ipod. It worked great until about 2 months ago and now it says I need to restore my ipod but I can't unless I format it, but everytime I try, it says the format could not be completed. Is there anything else I can do to get it to work again?

No app is required.
- 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.
- Apple will do nothing without a court order

The computer that I original used with my ipod touch is dead, so I am now synching and backing up to a new computer. I had to restore the software to this ipod. I can drop and drag my tunes back into the ipod, but not my apps.

The computer that I originally used with my ipod touch is dead, so I am now synching with another computer. I had to restore the software of the ipod, I am able to drop and drag my tunes back to the ipod but not my purchased apps. I have no problem doing this with other ipods that I have synced and backed up to this computer.

HT1351 when my iphone 5 is connected, i can't see the content in itunes library. when i have an older ipod plugged in, there is a button to view what's on the ipod but not iphone. how do i see the music stored on iphone 5 in itunes??

When i connect my iphone 5 to cpu, i cant figure out how to see the music held on phone. When I click the "iphone" icon, it pulls up the options (summary, info, music, apps, etc) but when i click music, it just gives sync options. When i plug in an older ipod, there's an option to see what's on the ipod but not with my iphone 5. how do i see the music stored on my iphone in itunes?

There is a OneClickdigital ereader available in the App Store. Download that to your iPod to read pdfs and books from the library. And you might need to download the OneClickdigital eaudio player to listen to audiobooks from the library. Once both are downloaded sync you iPod again to transfer them.

My itunes store is saying that it could not contact the server, it says i need to restore my ipod but when i go to restore it, it says the server could not be contacted or something. what does this mean?

okay so last night i went to charge my ipod in the computer and it started working then i took it out of the computer and put it on a wall charger and it had a spasm attack and shut itself down, after that it said i had to connect it to itunes so when i did it kept telling me that i need to restore my ipod, but when i press restore the itunes said "the contact server is not avalible" or something similar to that, what does that actually mean and is there anyway i can fix my ipod. i have dropped my ipod a few times, on tiles, wood, in a gutter of water when it fell out my pocket but im also wondering is it something to do with my ipod or is it itunes?

Try:
iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
The abuse may prevent a restore or prevent proper operation of the iPod if you can restore the iPod.
