HT1212 Why is my iPod touch is locked for 22,227,674 minutes?
I do not know how this happened because I was not the one to lock it, if someone locked it. I've tried to hard reset it but it will not do one, I've turned it off and on plenty of times, and it has died and been charged plenty of times. How did this happen? How do I fix this problem? How do I prevent it from happening again? Will my stuff be backed up? Will it delete if this is fixed? Please help.

Why is my iPod touch repeatedly asking for different iTunes account passwords?
Does anyone know why my iPod Touch keeps asking for 5 different iTunes account passwords? Also, in the iTunes app it says I have 651 songs preparing to download, and I didnt tell it to download them. Does anyone know why this keeps happening? It only began after I reset my iPod.
I have this problem too. I'm trying to restore an iPod and it asks me for account numbers. Is there Anyway to get around it? Cause it does not seem fair if I can have and listen to it on my iTunes but not my iPod. The one account is from a girl who litteraly went mentally insane, I'm not going to be asking for her password EvER. And the other is An ex friend and I don't even know who the third account is! This is really not fair and sooooo annoying. It won't put on alll my other music without these passwords. There has to be a fix for this. I can't even use my iPod and get music on it!

My daughter's ipod touch is disabled for the next 43 years. Any hints on how to fix this? I have followed the steps listed on the apple website to p lace it into recovery mode, but the ipod is now "stuck" on the connect to itunes part. Thanks!
Sounds like a case of entering an incorrect passcode over and over. Only fix is to follow the instructions in that article you reference, HT1212, and it may take a couple tries to get it to work right.

IPod touch is disabled for 27,543,808 minutes
My iPod touch was taken by my sister and cousins. They tried to guess my password on various occasions and now it has been locked for 27,532,808 minutes. Which is about 55 years or something.
I have tried to do a forced restart, where I have held down the sleep button and the middle button to restart the iPod, and then continued to hold down the home button, which then shows me the screen "connect to iTunes" on the iPod itself. However, my laptop, isn't the laptop the iPod was last synced with.
The iPod doesn't pop up on iTunes, it just simply stays on the "connect to iTunes" screen and does nothing.
I really need my iPod as I'm going on holiday Friday, and I can't be without music! Please help!!Did you get the iPod in recovry mode: does it show the iTunes logo and USB plug? If not see if this program will get the iPod in recovery mode:

Next see if DFU mode will get iTunes to see the iPod:

Ipod touch is locked for 40 years
Ok my son lost his IPOD touch it has been missing for over a year.. Now after finding it it is locked and says you cannot try to unlock it for 21,336,450 minutes thats 40 years. So I am stuck at a what to do it will not re set with my computer as it is a new one and it has never been sync with it before. How can I unloack this and get it so he can use it again?
Ok, so it wasn't lost but obviously stolen and someone really went to town to screw you up. What happened when you plugged it into iTunes? If reseting doesn't work, I would advise you to take it to Apple.

I forgot my ipod touch's passcode and it died. After a couple months i pulled it back up and it was locked out for 21 million minutes and i looked it up on the internet and couldnt fix it with anything. I then took it to geek squad and they couldnt even fix it. Dfu mode wont work, cant connect it to itunes, cant restore or recover it. Please help me.
Use Device Firmware Mode...
1. Turn off your ipod To do this, hold the home and sleep buttons for 10 seconds, ignore slide to power off message.
2. Release the power button when you see the apple logo (keep holding the home button)
3. Keep holding until you see a message.
Now restore from a backup!
Alternatively you can wait! -
