HT1212 IS THERE ANY OTHER WAY, IT DID NOT WORK

I have tried the restore possibility on my ipod becasue we have forgotten our passcode. It did not work, is there any other options besides a complete reset?

You have to restore the iPod.
Connect the iOS device to your computer and restore via iTunes. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

If necessary:
Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
For MAC or PC

If you don't have access to a computer
If you are using Find My iPhone, you can use Remote Wipe to restore your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode.
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 iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • HT1725 hi i did not have a credit to purchase  any paid app or songs. is there any other way to purchase

    hi. i did not have a credit card to purchase a paid app or songs. is there any other way to purchase. and i  already purchased a paid app any song by using my debit card . what can i do to purchase

    Is you debit card no longer accepted ? If not then do you have a different debit card that you could try, or are iTunes gift cards available in your country - they are not available in all countries, and they are country-specific (they can only be redeemed and used in their country of issue. If not then the only payment methods that you can use are those that show on the payment details screen on your account.

    Andy,
    We are currently in the same situation as you.  Seems we have been "Spoofed",,,, e-mails "TO" us and also sent "From" us.... Both to and from using our old <xxxxxx.mac.com> address.  We are getting about 15 of the e-mails a day.  All from some version of "Med Store",, "Great Medical Store",, "Erect Meds Cheap",, and other variations of same.... Each one has a different "Link" in the text, but we never launch them.
    The amazing part is that for the past six weeks they all indicate that they originate from a different address.  Some foreign and some from US addresses.  So, we cannot write a "Rule" banning the originating address.
    We did write a "rule" that send them to "Junk" and forwards each one to <[email protected]>.
    Anyway,,,, we are ready to change our address, but are in the same "can't be done easily boat" as you.
    Seems we have to start all over and establish an entirely new Apple Account.  (Our old one will remain out in cyberspace forever)..... Seems strange.....
    Our reluctance remains with stuff like our Calendars, Notes, iTunes, Apple Store purchases, etc......
    We have posted questions here and on MacRumors, but seem to never get good answers.....  Most say just "live with it" and maybe it will stop.
    And like you we found out about using Alias' to late... shame on us....
    Very confusing and frustrating.....Still open for any input....

  • Why apple doesn't allow the users just to add more photos from our pcs instead of requiring us to re-sync the existing albums? I can't sync additional photos cause I have my pc  reformatted. =( is there any other way to add these photos? please help me.

    I can't sync additional photos cause I have my pc  reformatted. =( is there any other way to add these photos? please help me. these existing photos are very important to me. ='((

    Apple has not saidwhy they did it that way and it is against the terms of this forum to speculate on the reasons. It says not to:
    "Discussions of Apple policies or procedures or speculation on Apple decisions."
    The are third-party programs like TouchCopy that I think will allow you to do what you want.  You can import photos via DropBox.  The third-party programs will I know allow you to transfer the photos to your "new" computer.

    Hi Sian.riches,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I know it can be both concerning and frustrating if your iPhone will not turn on as expected. I also know your have done some great troubleshooting already. I would suggest reading over the attached article and trying the troubleshooting steps provided to ensure everything has been done.
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Have a great day,
    Joe

    My iPhone 4s notified me that I had to manage my storage  so I deleted  apps that used a lot of space I deleted almost all my picture and it still keeps telling me  I don't have enough storage  is there any other way I can make room on my phone ?  Were it shows how much storage  I have available it still says 9.9 even after all that I have done so I don't know if I need to change my storage plan or what but anything will help I guess

    Check for 'others' in iTunes against your iPhone.
    Restore from a previous backup to reclaim some of it.
    Still want more, Restore in iTunes, setup as New.

  • Is there any other way to get Adobe Captivate help?

    Hi guys,
    is there any other way to get Adobe Captivate specific help? I've posted a question twice with no help, it's very specific, so no one here might actually know the solution. I'm wondering though, since the chat is obviously not for Captivate users with product or service questions.
    Is there a tech team I can somehow contact? We really need an answer to the problem.
    Thanks,
    Nat
    P.S. I'll post the problem again here:
    We publish mp4 training videos as HTML5 content and have the problem that we need to restrict the player to only play/pause.
    Adobe Captivate 7 works fantastic for us on almost all devices, many Androids, many browsers, and even on iPad. Captivate, after adding the video as a multi-slide video to one slide and publishing it as HTML5 content, only lets the student play and pause the video - just what we need.
    But then we test it on iPhone and the iPhone's internal quicktime player recognizes the mp4 video and kicks in, gives the student all the functions they want, totally overrides the HTML5 published Captivate restricted playback options.
    Is there ANY way we can get around that? Any function or box we haven't checked before publishing the HTML5 content?
    We would even be happy, if the video wouldn't play on iPhone - just as long as they can't use it to fast forward to the end of the video.
    Does anyone here know how to bypass the internal iPhone 5 player?
    Thanks,
    Nat

    By the way, I have updated to the newest Captivate 7 version and am using iOS version 7.0.4.
    Again, it's fine on iPad, but not on iPhone 5.

    When I get songs and put them on my itunes accout on my computer I used to be able to rename them right clicking, going to "get info" and then renaming everything I wanted like song name, album and artwork. I also use to be able to click on the song then click and hold on it and be able to rename it. But all the songs I have gotten after the last update have not been able to be renamed in any of the old ways I use to be able to. Is there any other way to rename songs because I know I can't undo updates and that seems to be whats causing it.
    Thankyou for your time

    You are describing an iTunes problem, not an iPod touch problem. Try posing in the iTunes forum.

  • I Tunes has lost a large proportion of my music library.  The music in question is however still on my IPod.  Is there any way to sync backwards so the IPod updates ITunes?  Or is there any other way I can try to recover the lost music files?

    I Tunes has lost quite a large proportion of my music library.  I think this may have happened when I tried to download a previous version of ITunes that failed to load.  Whatever, the music is still on my IPod.  Is there anyway files on an Ipod can be transferred back into ITunes?  Or is there any other way I can try to recover my music files?  Also, I no longer have any confidence in ITunes ability to store data efficiently and wonder if there is any way I can back up my IPod outside ITunes?

    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself independently backed up against loss.  To use a device with a new computer you transfer the content from the old computer (or its backup) directly to the new computer, not the device to the new computer. Media syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software.  See this document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
