  • How to fix a disabled ipod touch that says connect to itunes

    My friend was given an ipod touch from her friend. Her friend has forgotten the password and now the ipod has been disabled and says connect to itunes. Well itunes doesn't recongize the ipod and says it needs a passcode. I have tried the plugging in the ipod while holding the home button the whole ordeal. Please help!

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    not able to get passcode off its doing nothing. it s just say connect to itune and it want do that so i guess i will send it back

    You can't remove the Passcode if you can't remember it.
    You have to restore the device within iTunes. You want to use the same computer that you always sync with so that you can restore your app data and settings. You can restore with any other computer, but you will lose everything on the iPad.
    Instructions can be found here.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
    You will probably need to restore using Recovery Mode. You can read about it here.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4097
    Or you can follow these Recovery Mode Instructions
    Disconnect the USB cable from the iPad, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    Turn off iPad: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for iPad to turn off.
    If you cannot turn off iPad using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the iPad turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
    While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to iPad. When you reconnect the USB cable, iPad should power on.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
    If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the recovery mode alert that iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode.
    Use iTunes to restore iPad.

    Hi,
    Time to take your iPod in for service.
    You can make a Genius Bar reservation in advance if you are in the U.S.

  • I keep gdtting a pop up screen on my phone that says "connect to itunes to use push notifications".  I've connected and nothing happens.  I cant get the pop up to stop and cant do anything else with my phone.  What do I need to do?

    I keep getting a pop up on my iophone 5 that says "connect to itunes to use push notifications"  I've connected to itunes and nothing happens.  I cant use the phone as I can;t get the pop up to stop

    So after exhausting countless hours I just added the App "Google Search".  It's not as great of an interface but I can access Google Voice and keep tabs by just checking in every so often.  Better than not having Google Voice at all.

    You've connected the iPad via cable to your computer, and your computer's iTunes is up-to-date ? If it's icon isn't showing then try one of these troubleshooting pages :
    PC : iPhone, iPad, or iPod not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support
    Mac : If you don't see your connected device in iTunes for Mac - Apple Support
    If the iPad is disabled then you'll need to reset the iPad back to factory defaults, after which you can restore to your backup

    Hi apiccolo5,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    See these articles for steps that can help you resolve the issue you're seeing:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
    Error 20, 21, 23, 26, 28, 29, 34, 36, 37, 40
    These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. Follow Troubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart.
    Best,

    If you have a graphic of iTunes and a cable displayed on your iDevice then it is in Recovery mode.
