How to put your i-pod 2nd gen in passcode mode or how to never go back there!

I do not like the enter passcode mode!

Go to Settings>General>Passcode Lock and turn it off. There is no way to prevent someone from turning it back on if the iPod gets out of your possessing.

Connect the iOS device to your computer and try to make a backup
iOS: How to back up
Then restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

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    
However, many apps have been updated and the updated apps are no longer compatible with a 2G

    Try:

    - 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.

    Apple also may exchange it for a refurbished 2G for this price.

  • How do I "reformat" a nano 2nd gen?

    My boyfriend just bought a new Classic - and we have decided to give my niece his nano 2nd gen. How do I remove all the songs off the nano so that the youngen can load her stuff - without having to wipe the library off BF's computer....

    Restore your iPod. Just be aware that restoring will erase the iPod's hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings. Once the restore is complete follow the on screen instructions to name the iPod and automatically sync your songs and videos onto the fresh installation. Uncheck the box beside the sync automatically instruction and press Done, it will default to manual mode and it will be empty. Your niece can add her own songs when she connects to her computer:
    Restoring iPod to factory settings with iTunes 7
    Managing content manually on iPod and iPhone
    Syncing Music to iPod
    One thing to be aware of when using an iPod in manual mode is that the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device: Safely Disconnect IPod

  • How to reset a iPod shuffle 2nd Gen

    How can I reset my 2nd Gen shuffle, as I was out running and it just stopped working.  Thought it was needing charging however, it won't charge at all,,,,,, Dead!!!    Any advice??

    A hard reset or a complete reset to factory settings? To do a hard reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    To completely reset the iPod to factory settings, head to Settings -> General -> Reset and tap Erase all Content and Settings.

  • How to put your PS3 or PS4 into a DMZ

    Hello!
    You're most likely here because you've thrown something out of your window in frustration at being randomly booted from an epic game of Modern Warfare 2. It's no fun, we know. But we're here to help you out...
    Most problems like this can be resolved by placing your PlayStation 3 Console in a De-Militarised Zone (or DMZ). This means that your router will not block any internet traffic to your console, leaving you free to breathe the open air of MW2 multiplayer goodness. Ahhh....
    Placing your console in a DMZ is not a difficult thing to do, but you will need to set aside half an hour to get to grips with the process - and you'll need administrator access to your router.
    First things first, turn on your console and go to Settings > Network Settings.
    From here, you can change all the bits and gubbins which help your PS3 connect to the internet.
    You will need to give your PS3 a static IP address. IP addresses are like street addresses, only for your internet network. A static IP address will ensure that your router always knows where it can find your PS3.
    To do this, first you'll need to go to the Settings and Connection Status List and make a note of 2 numbers:
    1. The 'IP Address'
    2. The 'Default Router'
    Once you've got these, back out of this menu and go to the Internet Connection Settings menu. From here, follow these steps:
    1. Select 'Custom'
    2. Select the type of connection your using (If your PS3 is plugged in to the router, select 'Wired', if not you're using a wireless connection, select that intead.)
    3. If you selected wireless, set up your connection as normal untill you get to the IP Address menu.
    4. If you selected wired, select 'Auto-Detect' at the next screen and continue to the IP Address menu.
    5. At the IP Address menu, select 'Manual'.
    Remember those numbers you marked down earlier? Here's why you noted them!
    You'll now see a screen with 5 options:
    IP Address
    Here, you need to input the number you noted down earlier. However, you should change the last group of 3 digits to something else. Your safest bet is to increase this number by 50 and use that. So, if the IP address you noted earlier was 192.168.0.50 then your new IP address would be 192.168.0.100
    Note that the numbers here only go up to 255, so use that as a maximum if you need to. Be sure to ONLY change the last group of numbers! Make a note of the number you decided to go with.
    Subnet Mask
    This is almost always 255.255.255.0, don't change this unless you have a specific reason to do so.
    Default Router
    The second of the numbers you wrote down, all you need to do here is input the IP address of your router.
    Primary DNS
    This bit is super easy. Remember the number you placed in 'Default Router'? Whack it in here again!
    Secondary DNS
    You don't need anything at all here, unless you have a specific reason to input a Secondary DNS.
    Once you're done here, make sure to make a note of the IP address you entered at this menu and hit right on the d-pad to advance.
    6. For MTU - select Automatic
    7. Do not use a proxy server, unless you have a specific reason to use one!
    8. UPnP - it's usually a good idea to enable this, but if you have voice comms trouble after using this guide, try disabling it.
    9. Review the settings and test the connection!
    Now, don't panic. Your PS3 may scream at you that it cant connect to PSN. In the words of Revolver Ocelot, "We're not finished yet!"
    Your next task is to log on to your router as an administrator. Check your router's manual for details on how to do this (alternatively, google is your friend).
    Somewhere in the plethora of settings and techy bits that make up your router's menu will be an option to assign a 'DMZ'. I cant point you directly to this since every router differs, your best bet is that good ole' friend google.
    Once you find it, you'll be asked to input an IP address for your DMZ. Here, you need to put in the IP address you gave your PS3 earlier, the one you noted down after step 5 of this guide. Once you've done that, save your settings, wait for your router to sort itself out, then dance a bit - you're nearly done.
    Troop over to your PS3 and go back into Network Settings. From here, select Internet Connection Test. If all has gone swimmingly, your test will be successful and your NAT Type will read '2'. Hurrah! Your console is demilitarised and has nothing to fear from aerial bombings* or multiplayer connection troubles.
    If it fails, something has gone horribly wrong. Maybe terrorists intercepted your traffic and changed an IP address whilst you weren't looking, or maybe you forgot something. Fear not - post in this thread with the results of your internet connection test and our lovely community will do their best to help you out.
    Enjoy!
    MusterBuster.
    *I cant guarantee your PlayStation will survive an actual aerial bombing. Sorry bout that.

    "De-Militarised Zone" sounds a bit scary lol. So "your router will not block any internet traffic to your console" but what does that actually mean? Could someone hack your PS3 or something? Are there any other benefits of putting your PS3 in DMZ?
    We're yet to hear of anyone hacking a PS3, no one has ever done it from over the internet, and we're pretty confident that no one can.
    Mind you, coming from me that will sound very biased! But perhaps our community members can reassure you that this is safe?
    My PS3 is in a DMZ, if that'll reassure you
    The benefits are that your side of gaming wont cause any connection problems. What it cannot do is protect you from dropouts/disconnects from users who are connecting from behind a ridiculously secure network.

  • How to put my apple tv 3rd generation into DFU mode

    I tried the way that I google on the internet which only plug the micro USB into the apple tv and connect it to the PC, but I don't see the light flashing at all. and my apple TV is on software 5.0(4099) version. And then I plug the power cord as well and open iTunes, the iTunes can recognize the apple TV and everything seems working fine inside the iTunes. So I believe the USB cable is working fine.
    Have anyone put your apple TV 3 into DFU mode before?

    Hi!
    I´m sorry i dont have a solution to your problems because i have the very same problem.
    My Apple Tv (3rd gen) freezes in menu and i cant restore it in iTunes (Error 1611).
    So i´ve heard that you should put your device in DFU mode, and apparently its really easy for 2nd gen, but for some reason, no-one knows how to do it in 3rd gen, not even Apple support!!
    Why does it have to be so hard? i mean it should be as easy as for the 2nd gen. I hope someone answers to this thread.

  • IPod Touch 2nd gen in recovery mode after trying to update to OS 4.0

    I was trying to update and the usual auto backup came on when you update not the sync iPod one and it was backing up then had an error and sent the iPod into recovery mode I can't get it back out. Tried all the button tricks. What to do?

    I know it is just not right. I keep seeing sites that suggest quickpwn, redsn0w, blackra1n but when I try to use files they are always missing something. My iPod is not "JAILBROKEN" or anything but I have seen video of these techniques being used and they work but for me the programs won't run or I can't find a good source file. I don't want to restore and frankly I feel we should not have to. This is an Apple problem that seems to be constant I have had numerous failures lately and I am not real happy about it. I will try to call them 2mrrw but I doubt they will tell me anything new other than you don't have an apple care plan and there is nothing you can do but restore it. I have found this file that is suppose to fix the problem when you shift click restore and then select it but I don't know how to use it... any ideas would be helpful... ipod2,14.0_8A293Restore I want to know if it will delete all my files on ipod or just fix the OS issue? or if anything else can be done.
