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.

  • IPod Disabled Please Help!

    Hello, I have the brand new iPod Touch 5. And someone messed up the passcode and now it says "iPod is disabled connect to iTunes". After I connect it to iTunes, it says "Do you want to allow this computer to access information on "iPod"? When I click Continue it says "To allow access, please respond on your iPod touch." But nothing happens on the ipod it still says disabled. Also I never synced this iPod to any computer before. I have lots of pictures that I need. Is there any way I can recover those pictures? I've looked at other similar posts and none of the solutions work. Thanks!

    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.

  • HT1430 my ipod 4 is disabled.Please help!!

    IPOD IS DIsabled.Please help!!!!

    Recovery mode will work. BUT if your like most people you probably dont want to lose all your information.  Sometimes if you just plug your ipod into a computer you have used before it will just unlock it for you! Sometimes if that doesnt work you can try to just back up your stuff to your computer unless you already have your stuff backed up to iCloud.  
    In that case get a computer get on any internet provider and go to www.icloud.com sign in and go to Find My iPhone.  From there click on your devise and do a remote wipe.  Personally I find this much easier than to have to mess with downloading software on your computer and all the other crap.
    Hope this help!

  • HT4436 I am using IOS 4.1 in Ipod touch. I would like to take my data back using icloud. I am not able to enable icloud in to my ipod touch. please help me for the same.

    I am using IOS 4.1 in Ipod touch. I would like to take my data back using icloud. I am not able to enable icloud in to my ipod touch. please help me for the same. Basically I am trying to take back to upgrade my ios to 5 or 6 version.

    You can't back up to iCloud until you update to iOS 5 or higher.  You will have to back up your iPod on your computer using iTunes.  Update iTunes on your computer to the latest version, then connect your iPod to your computer, open iTunes, if iTunes give you a pop-up asking if you want to update your iPod, decline.  Then click on the name of your iPod in iTunes, go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases to transfer any purchased media to your iTunes library.  Next, go to the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings and click on Back Up Now to back up your iPod on your computer.
    When it's done backing up, click on Check for Update (or Update) on the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings.  Allow your iPod to update, and leave it connected to your computer.  At the end, it will restart and give you the option to restore to the iTunes backup you made earlier.  Choose this option to restore your backup and sync your apps and other iTuens media to your phone.
    This process is outlined in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972, under "If you are attempting to update using a Mac or PC with which you normally sync".

    Just a guess here, but it sounds like iTunes is under the impression that some of the song files it is managing are located on a removable drive. Do all of your songs play from iTunes? That might be hard to know if you have thousands of songs, but if a song was imported into iTunes, but the file was deleted afterward (like if you used removable media), you might get a warning like that, and the song wouldn't play in iTunes. Just a thought.
