HT1212 how to reset ipod without computer?

My daughter forgot her passcode to her ipod touch and now it is locked up. How do I reset it without using a computer or itunes?

If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
You need the iPod and iPad conencted to the interned and FindMyiPod turned on on the iPod an the iPad need to have the FindMyiPhone app installed. That now requires iOS 7 on the device.
You can also wipe by on a computer/s browser, going to icloud.com>FindMyiPhone

How to recover iPod without losing uploaded photos

I have uploaded a lot of photos to my iPod, but it crashed before I could connect it to iTunes. The iPod boots in the choose language screen etc. iTunes says that any data will be deleted if you restore, any way to get to those photos?

If you copied photos to your iPod using the full resolution option, enable disk use, open your iPod in "my computer" in Windows or Finder on a Mac, open the photos folder then open the "full resolution" folder and drag the photos out of that folder to your desktop. For enabling disk use look here.
Disk Use.
If you only copied the photos as thumbnails, you can't do this so you'll need a program such as this one.
Copy photos from iPod to a Mac.
Photos as thumbnails won't be of the original quality when copied back to your computer.
Of course, either of these procedures require the computer to recognize the iPod as a removable storage device.

How to recover database without archive files

Hello,
I've a test database without archive files and I need to know how to recover it without using archive files.
What is SQL command to recover database wthout archives?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
Carles

There are serveral information missing in this posting and as a support personnel, I would like to find out more when I see postings like this.
1. This person wants to "Test" his backup and recovery in NOARCHIVELOG mode.
2. He/She did not say his database had already crashed or had a problem.
3. He/She did not give any indication the kind of scenario he wants to recover from.
4. He/She did not mention the state of his database at the time of he posting.
5. He/She did not mention the Release of his Oracle Server or Platform.
6. He/She did not mention the type of backup he already has in place (although provided later as Full COLD Backup). How "genuine" is the back?
7. What actions has already been taken to attempt recovery.
In my support experience, I normally would go through a list of questions witht he use/client to get the full picture of the current status of the database before I give answers that would worsen situations, especially in a Disaster Recovery sitaution.
Personaly, I would suggest you have a look at the list above. One of the most important is number 3 (The Recovery Scenario), then number 4, number 6 and 7. Number 7 will determine the situation of your database. So, when you ask for SQL commands to use, there are different commands for different kind of recovery depending on what has gone wrong or what kind of file is damaged (Datafiles, Logfiles, Control Files, one tablespace, one table, entire database gone, etc).

How to sync iPod without losing music? (Lost external hard drive, which I used as a source)

I stored my iTunes library on my external hard drive, which held music purchased through iTunes, other sources, and personal music files.
My external hard drive recently broke. I will have to rebuild my library, but I have some things I'd like to add to my iPod. If I sync it now (the songs still show up in my library on iTunes, but there are no files to support them), will I lose all those? Previously, there have been times where I synced my iPod without my external hard drive and it kept them as long as I didn't delete them from the library or uncheck them. The only thing was that if I did remove them, I wouldn't be able to put them back. Does it still work like that?
I'd rather not risk all my music to put 4 songs on, if it won't work, you know?

Try syncing using the manual method

However, the rebuilding you did may have resulted in the iPod seeing the library as a new library. You can only sync with one library/computer. In that case:

For how to restore:
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.

The only items directly accessible on the iPod without iTunes and without a third-party program is the phot file. That is in the DCIM folder as show in windlows explorer. That is what you are seeing.
You iTunes library, music, apps video should be included in the computeer backup tht you periodically make. Also include the location for the iPod backup. You can find the location of that file and of what is in that file here:

How to synchronize iPod without deleting songs not in library?

hello all,
I have a problem. I would like to synchronize my iPod to iTunes but I have some songs on my my iPod that are not present in library (Cd's that I have deleted from my library etc.) I am assuming that if I synchronize the two, then iTunes will delete any songs on the iPod that aren't present in the library. So I ask you, how do I get iTunes to only add songs present in the library and not delete songs on the iPod?
Regards,
Glen

Did you set your ipod to automatically synchronize?
This is from the 'Keyboard Shortcuts' in the Help menu:
iPod shortcuts
Prevent iPod from automatically updating when you connect it to your computer
Command-Option as you connect the iPod to your computer (hold the keys down until the iPod appears in the iTunes Source list)
Next, set your iPod to manually update or update selected playlists in the preferences.

Satellite L300D-22K

after installing avast antivirus boot takes 20 minutes (corrupt File?, defective HDD?)
Moved all my personal archives to partition D:
Not sure if I can create bootable recovery dvds (system is unstable)

3 Unrelated to the above, can I update to Windows 7 (clean install)

Hi
I will try to help you.
> 1 Id like to reinstall vista without formatting D partition (where my data is)
>Find this guide for HDD recovery procedure
>http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R01.htm
>What steps should I follow?
As far as I know on second HDD partition in folder HDDRecovery is saved recovery image. When you start HDD recovery installation (F8 at start-up) recovery image from partition D will be installed on partition C. In this case partition D will not be deleted. Just partition C will be formatted before recovery image installation starts.
Just use F8 option and go to repair my computer. Just follow menu on the screen and choose option Recovery of factory default software.
> 2 If HDD is defective, how can I re-install supplied OS (vista) to a new HDD ?
After reading this question I see you didnt read users manuals document. You should create recovery media (recovery DVD) and this recovery DVD you can use for recovery image installation if there is some problem with HDD or you want to install original recovery image on new HDD.
> 3 Unrelated to the above, can I update to Windows 7 (clean install) 32 or 64bit version?
Of course you can do this. Visit please Toshiba download page on http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp and check if all drivers, tools and utilities are available there. Of course before you do this, create recovery DVD.
If you have more questions you are welcome.

How to recover account without email

I have one skype account and i forget the email id registered to it and password also.I don't even know that if somebody using that account or not. So, is there any way out so that I can recover that account or I come to know which email id is registered with that account. Please help me out.

Hi, Bischop, and welcome to the Community,
Skype does not permit jump-starting an account using the same name. If you can prove via other details that you are the "owner" of the account, you may be able to recover access to the account even if the e-mail address is no longer valid.
Regardless, the only way to recover the account is to contact Skype Customer Service. Here is a link to the instruction on how to contact Skype Customer Service via their secure portal: Contact Customer Service
Here are a few extra notes to guide you along the way ...
You will need to proceed through each step, one at a time. Sign on to the Skype website as requested. Choose the subject and topic which most closely matches the item you need assistance with. Then, continue past Step 2 of the instruction where several articles from the FAQ library will appear for you to review, and proceed to Step 3, Continue Support Request (the blue "button" appears at the lower right corner of the website page). You may also skip through Step 4 where you will be referred back here to the Community; no need to do this as the Community is where you started. When you complete the web-form and click Submit, your information is relayed to Skype and you will receive a reply via e-mail unless you are transferred to start an instant message chat session with a Customer Service agent.
