For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
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 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.

    Try:

    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Need help syncing new ipod touch to Itunes.

    I recently bought a brand new Ipod touch 5th gen. I have the latest update for itunes, I want to start syncing music to my Ipod. My computer will not bring any info for this ipod touch into itunes. I had a 4th gen and I know that I seen on the right hand corner, under the search store, there should be a little icon with your Ipod below. No where is my Ipod been found. Every time I plug the USB cord into the computer, I don't see anything come on the screen. All I see is the battery charging on my Ipod. I'm getting frustrated with this Ipod not allowing me to get any music. What am I doing wrong? I also don't see any summary pane for me to reset to factory settings and start all over. how can someone help me on this? I tried turning on and off both the Ipod and computer, nothing, still the same and no Ipod is to be found on itunes.  PLEASE HELP!!

    Just what version of iTunes do you have? For a 5G iPod/iOS 7 you need iTunes 11.1 or later.. If you have a Mac yo need OSX 10.6.8 or later.
    Does the iTunes still see the 4G iPod?
    If necessary:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
    Or
    See
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    - I would start with
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    or              
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
    - New cable and different USB port
    - Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

  • Need help - yes, another ipod touch vs ipod classic

    I currently am using an old 256mb player, and I need a new ipod, its getting ordered next week or so... (xmas present, so I gotta wait until christmas.)
    I have 27gb of media, but only 6.7 gb of songs in iTunes. Most people say, well you got so much, get the classic. What is really stopping me from getting the classic is that the ipod touch has wifi. I have a wifi network in my house, and now that I sold my PSP and my laptop is gone, I cant sit in my living room and browse the internet. I really miss that. I am worried about a few things with the ipod touch:
    1. Not enough storage for me - I will have to have a mixed bag of media
    2. Reports of touchscreen becoming unresponsive after a few weeks +
    3. Battery life and reliability - short battery life and it is expensive to replace when it really dies
    4. No games that can be played when wifi isnt around - yet
    The things I like about the touch is:
    1. WIFI - I love safari and I am a youtube addict
    2. Widescreen - so much nicer to watch vids on a widescreen
    3. Thin - my ipod will always be in my pocket, so the thinner the better
    4. Glass multitouch screen - makes you feel like your part of the device
    5. OSX - since it is more of a portable computer, there are endless possibilities with it - remember, apple comes out with a SDK in feb...
    6. Amazing cover flow
    Disadvantages of classic:
    1. Hard drive is less reliable than flash
    2. No wifi
    3. Smaller screen
    4. No option to fit videos and pics to screen while watching them on ipod
    5. Cover flow feels like crap after using a touch/iphone
    Advantages:
    1. Hard drive - more storage
    2. Longer lasting and cheaper battery
    3. Cheaper
    4. In its 6th gen so you dont have to worry as much about its technology failing like you do with the touch
    5. GAMES - I am always on the go and would love to be able to play texas hold em, I am a major texas hold em freak.
    I went to the apple store 4 times since the new ipods were release, and EVERY SINGLE TIME I walk out saying "Ok, iPod touch it is." Then I get home and open iTunes and sit down and realize that it just isn't enough storage. I have had a 4gb ipod mini 2nd gen and a 2gb ipod nano second gen in the past and with both devices I have had to choose what I wanted on my iPod, I am really sick of that. Let me know what you guys think. BTW my mini eventually died and I sold the nano because I was in need of money.
    Lastly, my budget limit is $300, so its 80gb iPod Classic vs 8gb ipod touch.
    On a side note my name isn't rebecca and I am not a girl... I am Garrett, and am a male college student. Thanks...

    Forget it, just ordered an engraved 8gb touch, I want it, thanks for all the help.

  • Need help with my ipod touch 4th gen

    My name is whitney last year i bought a ipod touch 4th gen  . And everything was working fine until i had recently updated it to ios 5.0.1 .  Ihave internet connection and can view the browser but  when i try to view the app store it either keeps loading the page, or it says  cannot connect to itunes store or  the browser has timed out . I am getting very frustrated about this as last month my ipod was working fine with everything until i had updated it and  had to restore it and the problem still persists. And it wont let me verify my icloud account either it also times out and says verfification failed . If anyone out there can help me out i would appreciate it .

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."

  • Need help connecting an iPod Touch to WRT54G

    I have a WRT54G version 6 router.  My laptop finds the network and connects easily.  My new iPod Touch finds the network, I enter the password (I'm using WPA), it looks like it is connected, but all the settings are blank.  I have used the iPod at a coffee shop with wifi, so I know it can work.  What do I need to do?

    Try to use WEP Security on your router as your IPod must not be configured to accept WPA securty...Once you set WEP security , if prompted for a wep key on your IPod enter a dollar sign($)and then enter your wep key and attempt to connect, if it does not connect just enter the wep key without the dollar sign and it should connect...

  • I need help with my Ipod touch 4th restoring to factory settings

    I have posted several posting because I need help but somehow everybody seems to ignore the subject or they just don't want to go there. I wonder why.
    Anyways, I'm in critical bind. I still have iTune 10.7 running on my iMac 10.6. However, when I try to synch my Ipod to my Mac I get a message that I need to restore my Ipod to factory settings.
    The thing that I'd like to know if I restore to factory settings if I could select which verions iTune I could select. I have 10.7 installed and also have a copy in TM.
    I don't want to use iTune V.11

    Ana
    I appreciate your input, but you still haven't told me how to restore the iPod w/o getting V. 11. So far for what I read it says that if I choose to restore back to factory settings that it will install the latest version of iTune. Is there any way that I can overide this? According to you, it sounds like I could but still you haven't share with me how to do it
    Illlaass
    Here is the thing I have iTune 10 installed but when I tried to synch the iPod is when I get the message that I have to restore it to the factory setting. I'm willing to go along with it provided that I can select iTune 10.7. I have it installed in my backups.
