  • I forgot my password to ipod touch and its disabled and the screen is telling me to connect to itunes

    i forgot my password to my ipod touch and its disabled and the screen is telling me to connect to itunes but i cant do anything else.

    I am having the same issue. My son misplaced his iPod touch and we recently found it under his bed. He then came to me saying he could not remember what his password was and the screen said it was disabled and to connect it to iTunes.  iTunes says it needs to be unlocked.  I have tried turning it off and then holding down the home key and then plugging it in but it fails to go into restore mode.  I have attempted other variations as well (Holding down both the home and sleep buttons, etc but so far nada.  Just curious if anyone else has seen a problem getting it into restore mode and if they found a solution.

    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.
    If you previously synced to the computer then you may be able to recover use of the iPod without erasing the iPod by following the instructions here:
    Disabled Recovery-must use syncing computer.

  • I forgot my password to get into my IPod Touch and am locked out.

    My daughter locked me out of our IPod touch.  My computer is so old that I am not able to get into the Apple Support to see how to fix it.  Does anyone know a way around this?  Is there a way that we can unlock the touch without hooking it up to the computer?  She never used to put a password on it until she started taking it to school and was afraid other kids would get it and look at her stuff or get into the apps.  Can I call Apple and ask them or do I have to hook it up to the computer to unlock it?  Please help!  I am desperate!!!

    Click here and follow the instructions.

  • Forgot password to iPod touch and don't know what to do!!!

    I do not know the password for my iPod touch! Its been a while since I was on it. Is there a trick to get back to the main menu on the iPod. Its disabled for and hour now. Any ideas??

    You must:
    Shut down the iPod (disconnect first)
    Hold the Home and Sleep buttons down until it asks you to shut down.
    Slide the slider and shutdown.
    Now, hold and KEEP HOLDING the Home button down while you connect the iPod to the computer.
    When prompted, restore as a new device.
    You'll have no data on the iPod - you'll need to sync again.

  • IPod Touch and Orientation Lock?

    Given no multi-tasking, does that mean no orientation lock too? Certainly that could have made it the the 8 GB iPod Touch iOS4 upgrade.

    I disagree; the best way to get customers to upgrade their hardware is to sell better hardware (as in the multitasking possible in the latest hardware). Limiting software upgrades for marketing reasons is a short sighted strategy. I will upgrade when I have a compelling reason to give up on what I have.
    The best way to keep customers wanting to come back is to not do evil; helping customers get the most out of what they buy is a better long term strategy.

  • HT1212 I forgot my password for my phone and it won't let me restore from an earlier date because its saying its locked. How can I figure out the forgotten password?

    Please help...
    I can't get in my phone and this is sooo frustratingt

    The only way to get passed it is by entering the correct passcode. If you are unable to the you need to follow how to restore via recovery with the article you referenced. Once you restore to factory settings you will then be able to restore from back up.

  • What do I do when my iPod touch wants me to plug into iTunes and asks for a password on the iPod touch and can't do it?

    What do I do when the iPod touch asks to be plugged into it ouch and nothing happens. The PC asks to use password on iPod touch and it can't be done.

    You can usually find the wi-fi password on your router itself if you know the router's ID and password (not the wi-fi password).  You can log into your router by putting its address (usually 192.168.1.1) into your browser's address window.
