HT1212 Ipod disabled from someone else, but i know passcode! how can i put it in?

My little cousin tried getting into my ipod, and ended up disableing it. it says "ipod is disabled connect to itunes" thats it! i know my passcode and just need one chance to put it in. what can i do?

Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
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
If you previous synced to the computer then you may be able to recovery use of the iPod without erasing the iPod by following the instructions here:
Disabled Recovery-must use syncing computer.

Hello lesley142
To sign out of what ever Apple ID is signed in, go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores and then tap the Apple ID and you will see an option to sign out.
iOS: Sign in with a different Apple ID in the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store

I have purchase iphone4 from someone,it is not factory unlock ,how can i get it factory unlock,its safari not working and its not showing drive on my computer

i have purchase iphone4 from gray market,it is not factory unlock,how can i get it factory unlock,
its safari not working and it is not showing drive in my computer.

iPhones are sold in carrier-locked and unlocked versions. If the phone has a carrier lock on it, you must contact the carrier to have it removed (you probably need to bring the phone to the carrier for the process). If you don't know the carrier, you won't be able to get it unlocked. US carriers will not remove the carrier lock and it cannot be removed.
How is Safari behaving that makes you say that Safari is not working? The lock status of the phone won't affect Safari, except that if the phone is locked and you aren't using the carrier (and SIM provided by the carrier) to which it is locked, then you can't use the phone or 3G service, only Wi-Fi.
The iPhone should not appear as a drive on your computer, so there's no error there.

I just got a 4th generation ipod touch from someone and there's a passcode. when i've tried to reset/restore it, itunes says i need to enter the passcode to continue. how do i unlock it?

when i clicked "restore" on itunes it started updating the ipod touch, but halfway through it says i need to enter the passcode. i let the whole download finish and it still says i need to enter the passcode. what do i do?

Are you sure you are following the instructions correctly? Placing the iPod in recovery mode wil allow you to bypass the passcode lock. If it's still asking you for the passcode, you aren't doing something correctly. Keep trying.
If no luck there, try DFU mode as well.

In the first tab (upper left), it's flashing - that I have a message from someone I don't know. I can't open the message, there is no message from this person in my messages, and I cannot open nor delete this "flashing" notice. It just keeps flashing.

I have clicked on it: nothing...
I have searched my messages: nothing
I have searched Firefox and the web for this person... nothing...
I've shut down & reopened my mailbox: Nothing.
I'm sure it's a spam type message, but I've cleared spam, made myself unavailable and shut down my messenger (I don't use that anyway), I've tried everything I know to get rid of this 'flashing' 'notice' that "elvianewtond141 sent you a new message." Please help me turn off this "flashing" notice of a message that is 1) not accessible to me; and 2) one I cannot open or delete. Thank you.

Every time I turn iPad on Ive got three films that try to automatically download from the cloud but always fail. How can I cancel or stop this from happening?

Three films that i purchased and are stored in the cloud always try to download to my iPad when I turn it on. A message always pops up saying download failed even though I haven't tried to download them. When I go into iTunes the three films are there as an update with download failed at the side. How do I stop this and just have them in the cloud? I Don't seem to be able to clear it. I also purchased a film by mistake but got it refunded and that also appears in my library from time to time. How do I clear that?

You could also try logging out of your account by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back and see if then works
If not then do a soft-reset and try again : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
And if that doesn't work either then you could try contacting iTunes Support and see if they can remove the films from you download queue : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

Javascript Acrobat on my form works, until someone else tries to use it how can I resolve this?

I created a form with a java script to rotate the page to fill in the rest of the form. This works fine on the computer I created it on. However, when I distribute the form, whomever opens it and clicks on the Java script button to rotate the page, they get an error. Is there a way to fix this?
/* Rotate all pages (or page range) in the document */
// Modify nStart, nEnd and nRotate to change script logic
nStart = 0 // first page to rotate
nEnd = this.numPages - 1; // last page to rotate
nRotate = 180 // allowed rotations: 0, 90, 180, 270
try {
if (this.numPages > 0) {
this.setPageRotations(nStart,nEnd,nRotate)
catch(e)
app.alert("Processing error: "+e)

Yeah, if you wish, send it to me to: try6767 at gmail dot com
Again, people using Reader will not be able to use this code. They can,
however, rotate the pages display through the View menu, but it will not be
saved when they exit the file.

HT1386 I have an app called ipieta which was originally downloaded onto an ipod. I gave the ipod to someone else, but now that I've had the iphone I can not get the audio even though it is downloaded into itunes music like it said to do. It won't work.

I have an app called ipieta which was originally downloaded onto an ipod. I gave the ipod to someone else, but now that I've had the iphone I can not get the audio even though it is downloaded into itunes music like it said to do. It won't work. I've tried more than several times to get help but nothing helps. Do I need to deauthorize the ipod or perhaps erase all the downloaded ipieta stuff and start over?
Thanks for any suggestions

Sorry. There's nothing anyone can do. The current version of the facebook app will not run on 4.2.1. The iPhone 3G won't run anything higher than 4.2.1. You're stuck.
Maybe it's time to buy yourself a new iPod Touch.

Your iPad is syncd with iTunes on your computer and your iTunes account controls what's in your iPad. Previously it must have been sync'd with another person's iTunes account in which case you need to completely clear it out to make it your own.
Go to Settings > General > Reset (at bottom) > Erase All Content and Settings
Then plug it into your computer and restore it with YOUR iTunes account.
Or if your have an iTunes account already setup under your name with your own apps and media -
Plug it into your computer, open iTunes if it doesn't open automatically and on your iPad page, click Restore
Let it proceed. Then the iPad will no longer be looking for someone else's account.

If you type in finder search "Migration Assistant" you should be able to restore from TimeMachine backup.

Lost discs - but have my serial number - can i install from someone else's?

long story short - i'm in new york with a reformated macbook pro, my fcs install discs are in boston, but my serial number is here. can i install fcs from someone else's discs using my serial number - or is that going to look illegal?
i can have the discs sent here but not as fast as i would like.

I doubt it, but you should start this as a new question.
It may get "lost" here at the bottom of an existing thread.

How can I view my iCloud contacts from someone else's iPhone? I don't want to change their phone settings.

Yesterday I ran into a problem that was eye opening to say the least. I could not not access my contacts in order to find a friend's phone number. No one remembers phone numbers any more. God knows I don't.
I was on a jetski and it broke down. I was stranded at a dock miles away. I needed to contact my friend to tell him (a) I'm ok, (b) where I was, (c) to bring a tow. Of course I had no phone on me because it would have gotten soaked.
People were kind enough on the dock to let me use their smart phones to attempt to retreive the phone number and call for help. But I quickly discovered that it is impossible.
On an iPhone, I tried to use their Safari browser to go to www.icloud.com. When you do that, it simply redirects you to the apps. But it isn't my phone, and their apps are logged in to the owner's accounts. I wasn't about to update the settings in a stranger's phone.
One guy let me try his iPad with Cellular. Same problem as the iphones. It would not let me use www.icloud.com. It insisted that I use the native iOS apps.
On an Android, www.icloud.com would simply refuse to work. It would say it was not supported.
The question I have is: How can I view my contacts from someone else's smart phone in an emergency situation?
Second question: Why can't I use www.icloud.com on a smart phone's web browser like I can on regular computer?
I got lucky. I happened to know my mom's home number. Many hours later she was home and I was able to use a phone to call her. She brought up www.icloud.com on her home computer, logged on as me, and read me the phone number I was seeking. But what are the chances of being able to call a trusted person who has access to a computer to do this for you?

Without "pretending" to be yourself on the other phone (change settings) there's nothing else you can do.
iOS devices are meant to be single user and can't view iCloud.com the same way a Mac or PC can do.
You need to find a desktop or laptop machine (Mac or PC) to log in at iCloud.
