HT1212 ipod restored to default but cannot get past pass code screen

I followed the instructions and still cannot get past the passcode screen now what do I do?

If you successfully (completed all steps without errors) restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that points to a hardware problem. I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • IMac G5 running OS 10.4.11. Started playing with a bluetooth speaker (may or may not be related). Now I cannot get past the blue screen on startup. I can get into safe mode. Tried install disc for disc utility and reloaded OS. Still get blue screen.

    I have an older iMac G5 running OS 10.4.11. The other day I started playing with a bluetooth speaker (may or may not be related). Now I cannot get past the blue screen on startup.
    I can get into safe mode. But no regular startup.
    I tried disabling bluetooth, thinking that might be related. It didn't help.
    I even tried using the install disc to run disc utility. That didn't work so I reloaded the OS.
    But I still get hung on the blue screen when trying a normal startup.
    All help would be appreciated.

    Try resetting the PMU/SMU and PRAM/NVRAM. You'd need to identify the mode of resetting depending on the model of your G5 iMac. The Apple support sites that would help you for this are –

  • I cannot get past the password screen

    I cannot get past the password screen, I've tried resetting it but it tells. Me I'm not an allowed user

    If the old Macbook(?) has Snow Leopard 10.6 installed, and you have that retail install disc or the system disc of the current (base level) system on it, you could use the installer disc as a boot volume and use the utilities on the booted install disc to reset the password. It should be a menu option in the booted Install disc, way short of any effort to re-install anything. And if your computer can do this, the same DVD has Disk Utility, to check/repair the Mac HDD.
    What OS X version do you have, & what MacBook, etc is that?
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Another iBook cannot get past the grey screen with spinning gear

    I have read the other posts on iBooks not starting up. I too have used Onyx recently but this was to cure the problem of a freeze. Now start up cannot get past the grey screen. PRAM has been zapped and safe mode will not work. Worse, the CD drive will take CDs so cannot go back to start up disk.
    Bizarrely, a visit to the Apple Store and the iBook started no problem. System was reinstalled using archive option and various health checks apparently showed no problems. But then got back home and again start up froze at grey screen with spinning gear. I have left it on this for over 15 minutes but to no avail. I have tried to connect to another ibook using T key to get target mode. I'm not sure if I am doing this right. I have started up working iBook plugged in the firewire to both machines and then started up ailing iBook holding down T key. 2nd iBook wont start at all.
    Any suggestions?

    An Archive and Install will preserve you user settings and data. You will need a minimum of 5 GB free on the hard drive to perform an A&I; you can reduce the space required by about 1 GB by selecting the option to install language support only for the language you use (assuming you don't need multiple languages).
    However, after seeing your other post (BTW, it'll be easier to keep track if relted issues are in the same thread), you do not want to try an A&I if Disk Utility is reporting anything about 'could not be repaired'. Doing so will would ensure problems down the road, if it worked at all. It's possible for one disk problem to mask another. Whenever Disk Utility (or any other repair utility) reports making repairs, it's good practice to repeat the repair until it reports no problems found or it becomes clear it cannot repair the disk.
    DiskWarrior has an excellent track record at repairing problems that Disk Utility cannot (especially Disk Utility versions prior to OS X 10.4.2).
    If the drive cannot be repaired, you may be able to keep it by doing an erase install with the write zeros (one pass) option. That will update the hard drive firmware record of bad disk sectors to avoid using. If there are only a few bad sectors, that may let you keep using the hard drive for several more years. An erase install will do just that to your data, through. If you have access to another Mac with either a large amount of free disk space of a DVD burner, you can try using the other Mac as host and the eMac as target in FireWire target disk mode. You can run the host's copy of Disk Utility on the eMac hard drive, and hopefully be able to mount the emac HD so that you can back up the data in your Home directory.

    I am trying to log on to an old laptop and I cannot get past the password screen - I'm using the password I always used and it is not working.  Even the clue doesn't help.  Is there anything I can do.  The last time it was turned on the apple staff transferred data to my new laptop.  Help

  • How 2 config OID 10.1.2.02 OAS install? Cannot get past HOST / Port screen?

    My problem is I cannot figure out HOW to install / configure OID, so that I get past the host / port screen ... there is nothing in my Programs links that indicates anything. The "DIPadmin" won't let me log in ... I am really stuck and really annoyed. Don't even know if I need OID, but can't seem to install OAS10g w/o it.
    The installation guide does NOT EVEN HAVE "Internet Directory" IN THE INDEX of a 380 page document ... it devotes a WHOLE CHAPTER to how to set up users ... BUT IT SEEMS TO BE A BIG SECRET as to what the host name and port number should be.
    Can ANYONE Clarify this for me??
    I am trying to install 10.1.2.0.2 (I do not think I want the BEA weblogic server, at least, not yet). What I want is a server for Forms/Reports 10g, maybe BI, maybe portal ... don't know if I really need a repository. ... and also want to use ApEx via this Apache webserver config, if at all possible (can I put a DBLINK in the metadata repository, to link to the real db? do I want to?)
    I will be buy-you-a-beer-at-ODTUG-grateful, if someone could clue me in as to what I am missing.
    Suzanne

    I can see the enormous torment you got in your attempts to install OAS and because of your years of this torture, let me share you some notes here.
    Let me try what could be an easy way to have an OAS installation with version 10.1.2.0.2. This will be good for a portal installation. minor changes can lead you to install BI or webcache types.
    there is a whole bunch of assumptions and details that are important but they may again give problems for a new person in installing the OAS. so I am skipping them all. this installation will be a simple single system install with both infra and midtier on the same system. you can run the second part of the installation (midtier on another system too which should be connected in the network). but again, first have the simplest piece, then look for sophistication.
    i can see that you are working on Windows system.
    edit etc/hosts file
    please beware; this assumes that you are using a clean system. that means, no other applications are critically relying on your etc/hosts file. and editing this file will not affect their functioning. also, i am assuming that this machine that you have will not be exposed behind your company's firewalls. so even by naming it www.myfirstoas.com, you won't actually be going to this URL on internet.
    edit your etc/hosts file as follows, then you should be all set:
    xx.x.x.xxx www.myfirstoas.com
    give the ip address of your machine in this case;
    Now install the Infrastructure first:
    These will be the answers of the first few questions asked;
    Infra Home: Infra1012
    Location: D:\ORACLE\Infra1012
    Confirmed that I have administrator privileges on the machine;
    -- orcldefaultsubscriber=dc=myfirstoas,dc=com
    automatic port assignments
    go with the suggested namespace = dc=myfirstoas,dc=com
    DB Name: infra.myfirstoas.com
    SID : infra
    using same password for:
    SYS, SYSTEM, SYSMAN, DBSNMP : myfirstoas01
    instance name : Infra1012
    ias_admin pwd : myoasadmin01
    click install
    -- that should be all you need to install the Infrastructure 10.1.2.0.2.
    now i would advise that you keep writing all installation info in your notes and save it. Also copy and paste the message of successful completion in it, and save it.
    now reboot your system.
    now install Middletier;
    after reboot, rerun the OUI installer:
    Midtier Home: Midtier1012
    Location: D:\ORACLE\Midtier1012
    Confirm that you have administrator privileges on the machine;
    -- orcldefaultsubscriber=dc=myfirstoas,dc=com
    -- configured with OID on
    host : www.myfirstoas.com
    port : 389
    username: orcladmin
    pwd : myoasadmin01 (note that this is the pwd for your ias_admin account for infra)
    DB connect string: www.myfirstoas.com:1521:infra.myfirstoas.com:infra.myfirstoas.com
    instance name: Midtier1012
    ias_admin pwd: oasAdmin02 (i kept the two ias_admin pwds different to highlight that the infra and midtier instances are different)
    click install
    -- that should be enough to install midtier.
    again, always keep all installation info in your notes and save it. Also copy and paste the message of successful completion in it, and save it.
    also, always reboot your system after any installation to avoid weird transient problems.
    it should all be done in about 3 hours or so.
    hope that helps!

  • Cannot get past security code on any website

    Trying to apply online to jobs and get to different sites. When the security code pops up, It says it's incorrect!... ***This is on any website, not just itunes.***

    You guys take it real easy:  You just try to humiliate the questioner.
    The same thing happens to me every time a captcha comes up.  On Yosemite (Updated recently and am very happy with it otherwise!) I can try twenty five times, I can try capital letters or small letters and other variations:  No luck.  So I start up Firefox and I get past the captcha on FIRST TRY.  The thing is I do not want to use Firefox; I am more comfortable with Safari.  This did not happen with OS X  / Safari 10.6.8. (pre-update).
    No jokes about Cataracts or new eye glasses or Alzheimer's medicine please!  At least come up with new ones!  But this is a real problem, maybe specific for some machines or something.  Essentially any captcha on any site fails to clear.  I wondered if it has something to do with some security setting; I dug through the settings, but I am only a simple pedestrian user and didn't find anything there.

  • Install iOS5 to my iphone4, but cannot get past Connect to iTunes

    After installing the iOS5 system to my iphone 4, after synching through iTunes, the phone is locked on the "Connect to iTunes" page; cannot go any further. HELP!

    Two things to consider when talking about routers - Reset means to return the router to factory settings - i.e. just like the day you took it out of the box. Reboot means to remove the power and then plug it back in. There is little need to Reset the router unless you really messed something up. Rebooting it, however, will clear up any errors that the router may have had.
    To fix your problem, you need to do a few things:
    1) Find out if your router has issued you an IP address. When you appear to be connected, tap Settings > WiFi > and then the blue ">" next to your network name. You are looking to see if the router supplied the touch with an IP address, subnet mask, router IP address, and DNS addresses. Chances are, you are going to see that some things are missing and your touch IP address starts with 169.x.
    Next, run through the following 3 step process:
    1. Reboot the router
    2. Reset the touch network settings - tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Connections
    3. When the touch restarts, tap Settings > WiFi > Other and then re-enter your logon information
    Check your touch WiFi settings again. If you IP address still starts with 169.x, then you have two things to consider. If you are using WEP, then changing your encryption to WPA2 would be the best router. If you are using anything but WEP, then upgrading your router firmware would be the way to go.
    Write back if you continue to have problems.
