You have to restore the iPod
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 iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

How to change your Administration Server password when you're locked out
How to change your Administration Server password when you're locked out
The Netscape server products are all managed by a single administration
server, which gives you a web forms-based interface you can use to
configure them, start/stop them, check their logs, and so forth.
<P>
There are three levels of protection that keep the general public from
being able to get into your administration server and mess up the
configuration of any Netscape servers you have installed:
<P>
<OL>
<LI> <B>Obscurity:</B> Your administration server can run on any port you'd
like (usually something between 81 and 30,000), so if an attacker
doesn't know what port to find your admin server on, he can't get
into it.<P>
<LI> <B>Host restrictions:</B> You can tell your admin server to only allow
connections from specific hosts, and to reject all other hosts.
<P>
<LI> <B>Password protection:</B> Even if a user connects to your admin server
from a valid host, he won't be allowed to get into even the first
page unless he presents a valid username and password.
</OL>
<P>
If you, the legitimate administrator of your web server, are unable to
access the administration server (if you forgot your password or the
admin port number or if you accidentally locked your own site out),
then here is how to get past each of these levels of protection:
<P>
<OL>
<LI> If you don't remember what port your administration server is
running on, just look in your "ns-admin.conf" file, which is in
the "admserv" directory under your Netscape server directory.
(For 1.x web servers on Windows NT, run "regedt32" and go to the
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Netscape\Administration" section).
You will see a "Port" entry there that specifies what port your
admin server is on. You can change this value if you want your
admin server to run on a different port, but make sure you restart
the admin server after you change the value.
<P>
<LI> If your admin server is complaining "Unauthorized host" when you
try to connect to it, then you can open it up to all sites by
going into the "ns-admin.conf" file or the "Administration"
section of your NT registry, as described above, and deleting the
lines for "Hosts" and "Addresses" (either one of those might not
be present) then restarting your admin server (on Unix run
"stop-admin" then "start-admin"; on NT go into the Services
control panel and stop/start the "Netscape Administration" or
"Netscape Admin Server" service). You will then be able to get
back into the admin server, where you can then try new settings
for your host and address restrictions if you wish.
<P>
<LI> If you have forgotten the password to your admin server and now
you can't log into your admin pages, all is not lost! Go into
your "ns-home" directory, and into the "admserv" directory under
that. You should find an "admpw" text file containing a simgle
line of text, something like this:
admin:lnOVeixulqkmU
The first part of that line is the name of your admin account
(usually just "admin"), and the second part is your admin
password, encrypted. Edit this file to remove the encrypted
password so that your file looks like this:
admin:
Then shut down your admin server, bring it back up again, and log
into your admin server but don't give any password. It should let
you in, at which point you can then go to the appropriate
configuration page to set a new admin password, and then you're
back in business.
</OL><P>
Note that because it is so easy to change the admin password this
way, it's good to periodically make certain that your admin
password file and your web server's configuration files are not
left world-writable, and that only trusted people have access to
them. (By default they're not world-writable, but it's good to
make sure of this from time to time.)If you mean that yu forgo the password for yur encrypted backup then you can only:
Warning: If you encrypt an iPhone backup in iTunes and then forget your password, you will not be able to restore from backup and your data will be unrecoverable. If you forget the password, you can continue to back up and use the device, however you will not be able to restore the encrypted backup to any device without the password. You do not need to enter the password for your backup each time you back up or sync.
If you cannot remember the password and want to start again, you must perform a full software restore and when iTunes prompts you to select the backup from which to restore, choose set up as a new device.

If you are locked out of your Itunes account and you no longer use the same email address, can you create a new account without losing your music library
Just to let you know that I DIDNT swear in the last post. It was bleeped for using non offensive language. Just letting you know. (And @moderator this subnote isnt "off topic", its just letting colleagues know I'm not in the habit of swearing - something that the search and replace word-bot actaully makes it look worse than it is!!)

I have accidentally deleted my IMAP password from my key chain, as a result i cannot access my google email using the Mac Mail. I cannot remember what the password was for IMAP, so can anyone help to resolve this. i can access my mail by going directly to Google Mail.
Regards JKG1135The password for use in the Mail application would be the same password you use when accessing Gmail by using an internet browser. The exception to that would be if you have 2-step verification enabled for Gmail. If that is the case then you would need to use an "application-specific password." If you are using 2-step, you can revoke the previous application-specific password and get a new one as described in https://support.google.com/mail/answer/1173270?hl=en

I updated my ITunes ID and password, but my IPad2 keeps prompting me to backup on ICloud with the former ID/password. Support says to delete the current ICloud account, but I am prompted for the former password to do this. I cannot remember the former password nor find a way to retrieve it. How do I either change the ICloud login ID prompt or retrieve the former ID password ?
Hello alljnii,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPad 2. I recommend resetting the password for your old Apple ID to resolve this issue.
You can reset a forgotten Apple ID or iCloud password by going to the following link:
Apple - iForgot
https://iforgot.apple.com
If you have a rescue email setup for your Apple ID, the reset password email will be sent there and not your Apple ID email address:
When you provide a rescue email address, all future security emails, such as password resets from iForgot, will be sent to the address provided.
Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
You might want to check your other email accounts for the password reset email, including their Spam folders. If you continue to have issues, please contact our Account Security Team:

My daughter locked herself out of her phone cannot remember the advanced password setting, we share an Itunes account and both recently joined the cloud, if she resets her phone all her information will be gone, will it affect the data on my phone as well
No, when resetting an iPhone it resets the actual data contained within the phone, nothing on your iCloud will be affected. It is a good idea to use seperate iClouda and iTunes accounts then you can each create your own backups regularly without your daughters backup overwriting yours or vice versa.

HT201436 Cannot remember my voicemail password
I restored my phone to its original settings and now I cannot log into my voicemail. I also cannot remember my voicemail password. How do I restart this set up process or retrieve my password?
Thanks in advance.Contact your carrier to reset your voicemail password. Depending on the carrier, you may be able to do it from their web site, or you may have to call their customer service.
Resetting the password will usually clear any saved messages as a security measure. -

This is your husband's app, only your husband can update it. Apps are forever tied to the Apple ID that purchased them. No other Apple ID can update someone else's app.

Installed Windows 8 on a late 2011 MacBook Air and was working fine now keyboard not working so cannot enter password? Caplocks key works but I am locked out on my own PC and cannot seem to get it to recognize built in keyboard,bluetooth,generic USB one.
Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps. -
