How to restore ipod touch in recovery mode with passcode in itunes

StylStyle
My ipod touch went to recovery mode after I tried to reset its network settings. I tried to connect it to itunes but it does not want to connect because I have a passcode and my ipod touch wont let me enter it so I could unlock it. Can somebody help me please? Thanks so much!

Placing the iPod in DFU mod and then restoring usually resove the passcode problem.

However, you may have othr problems since it went into recovery mode unexpectidly. Try restoring to factory defaults/new iPod if necessary.

  • How to restore Ipod Touch running ios 5 without passcode or itunes?

    Hello All,
    I updated my Fourth Generation Ipod Touch to ios5. The Itouch's home computer broke down so i am now forced to use my other pc which is authorised with the same apple id as the one on my old pc and on my itouch. I have not used my itouch in a couple of months and i forgot the password. When i try and connect it up to the latest version of iTunes on my PC it gives me this message:
    "Itunes could not connect to "Ipod Touch" because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the iPod before it can be used with iTunes."
    Note: I do not mind force restoring. I have no data on my itouch that needs to be saved I have everything already backed up to the cloud. I tried force restore methods but they would not work. Is there a special method for ios 5?
    PLEASE HELP

    - 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 another cable       
    - Try on another computer

    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.

    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.

  • IOS 5 update forced ipod touch into recovery mode which I can't get it out of! Help please!

    Hi, I recently updated my ipod touch 3rd gen to ios5 (as prompted by itunes - assumed a standard software update). Immediately afterwards, my ipod went into recovery mode, and initially itunes recognised this and tried to restore it unsuccessfully. Not any more! Now it is either off, or displays the 'connect to itunes' logo when I connect it to the computer via USB lead.
    I've tried uninstalling and re-installing itunes but this hasn't helped it recognise the ipod.
    I don't think I've managed to go 3 months without having to do something like reinstall the drivers etc on this ipod, don't know why i expected this update to be any different!
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks in advance!

    Try disabling all security software and firewalls, then try again.
    Or try from a different computer.
    This error is a pain in the butt and a new issue, too. I'm sorry.

  • How come my iPod Touch (5th Generation) won't appear in iTunes?

    My iPod Touch (5th Generation) won't appear in iTunes. I've never had any problem like this until we got that new charger and USB cord that comes with the 5th Generation. We just barely managed to get it to charge with my HP laptop. Before the device was considered "unknown" and was rejected by my computer, but then I found an article that said to uninstall the USB driver or whatever, and we did so, so now it's able to charge. We got all happy, thinking that it was going to apear in iTunes now, but it's still not there. It's said to be "Apple iPod" whenever it pops up after being connected to the computer, but it doesn't open in iTunes. I tried going under "File" and then "Device", and then trying to sync, but it appears gray and won't let me click on it. I don't know how to get it to open there. Can anyone help me? Please?

    - Reboot the computer
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    Then try again.
