HT1363 how to put ipod touch into disk mode

Hello,
Does anyone know how to put an ipod touch in disk mode? I don't have the box in itunes to enable disk use!
Thanks,
Don

This article doesn't mention it being possible with a Touch.

    How can I put iPod 5G INTO RETAIL MODE AS I RUN A PHONE SHOP

    What do you mean by retail mode?
    Apple uses their own custom iOS mods to have iOS devices for demonstration in their stores.
    You can do some restrictions of use of the iOS device by using Guided Access. See:

    I have looked at multiple websites; they all have the same instructions for putting your IPhone into recovery mode using ITunes.
    My computer was not downloading ITunes before, but I recently made it work. I turned my phone off, held the home button, plugged in the phone to the computer with ITunes already up. The little USB cord and ITunes logo showed up. The instructions said that a popup would say that ITunes had 'detected and IPhone in recovery mode', and from there I would be able to reset my phone. However, the popup never happens. I have tried this several times, and it's the same: I see the USB cable and ITunes logo on my phone screen, and in the corner of ITunes, a picture comes up of a phone with a little 'X' next to it. I clicked on the phone, on the X, but nothing works. The popup just never shows. I am unable to reset my IPhone because of it. I have not found any other way for me to reset my phone, since I didn't activate Find My Phone or ICloud.
    There is no icloud on an iphone 3, because you need IOS 5.0 or higher, the highest IOS is 4.2.1

  • How to restore ipod touch in recovery mode with passcode in itunes

    StylStyle
    My ipod touch went to recovery mode after I tried to reset its network settings. I tried to connect it to itunes but it does not want to connect because I have a passcode and my ipod touch wont let me enter it so I could unlock it. Can somebody help me please? Thanks so much!

    Placing the iPod in DFU mod and then restoring usually resove the passcode problem.

    However, you may have othr problems since it went into recovery mode unexpectidly. Try restoring to factory defaults/new iPod if necessary.

  • HT1363 6th Generation doesn't go into disk mode

    My Windows 7 laptop doesn't see my 6th generation Nano, so I followed directions through the point of "place device into disk mode".  The Apple logo appears, but at the next step nothing happens except the screen reverts to the home screen.  Any suggestions greatly appreciated!

    There isn't much else you can do other than have the iPod's Hard Drive replaced. Apple can exchange your iPod for a refurbished one of the same generation and capacity or you can send it to a third party service center to have them actually put in a new HD for a little less.

  • IOS 5 update forced ipod touch into recovery mode which I can't get it out of! Help please!

    Hi, I recently updated my ipod touch 3rd gen to ios5 (as prompted by itunes - assumed a standard software update). Immediately afterwards, my ipod went into recovery mode, and initially itunes recognised this and tried to restore it unsuccessfully. Not any more! Now it is either off, or displays the 'connect to itunes' logo when I connect it to the computer via USB lead.
    I've tried uninstalling and re-installing itunes but this hasn't helped it recognise the ipod.
    I don't think I've managed to go 3 months without having to do something like reinstall the drivers etc on this ipod, don't know why i expected this update to be any different!
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks in advance!

    Try disabling all security software and firewalls, then try again.
    Or try from a different computer.
    This error is a pain in the butt and a new issue, too. I'm sorry.

  • Ipod goes into disk mode HELP!!

    my 30 GB ipod gets stuck and wont start, when i reset it, it goes into disk mode and gets stuck there, wont reset wont turn off its dead until the battery runs out. The computer doesn't recognize it until its battery is completely gone and I have charged it on the wall charger for a while! HELLPPPP!! My Ipod is brand New and i have restored it twice already, once it even got stuck on a song and didnt fix until batery was dead.

    with your iPod connecting with an ac charger or a computer, press "select"+"menu" keys until you see the apple logo, it may takes a minute and also try to do a few attempts.

  • HELP! Need to put iPod touch in Recovery mode...

    My brother has an iPod touch (don't know which version but it's about 1 year old) and has forgotten the passcode for it.
    Unfortunately, we're now using a new installation of Windows (and hence, iTunes too) so we cannot resore it by plugging into it's "home PC".
    I have seen a few tutorials on how to put the iPod in Recovery mode, but none have worked. Does anyone have any suggestions? HELP PLEASE!

    Try this program.  There are others too.

  • Old imac hard drive crashed... how to put ipod tunes into new imac's itunes

    I'm sure this is something that's been revisited a number of times already... My "old" imac (2 years old -- yes I'm ****** but let's not go there) hard drive ceased living. I literally lost everything (had all data backed up, whew!).
    Anyway, how can I put my itunes library, which is on my ipod, onto my new itunes on my new imac?
    Thanks in advance for your help, Craig

    You can't do this using regular Apple software (it's designed to work in one direction only). However if you Google "transfer from ipod to itunes" several helpful links come up with utilities you can download to do this.
    But if you have protected music on your iPod, do remember to "authorise"" your new HD first.

  • How to put iPod touch 5g to sleep while listening to a song on youtube?

    right now if i put the ipod to sleep then it stops playing the song on youtube.  any way i can fix this?

    If you go into Settings>General>Auto-Lock and tap Never, your iPod should stay on... Of course this will drain the battery in a few hours because the screen is staying active all the time, or until you manually lock it / turn it off. And if a thief picks it up they will be able to use your iPod also, at least until they manually turn the screen off. Things to think about. Hope this helps. Cheers.

  • Reinstalled computer - How to put ipod tunes into itunes library?

    Hi sure there is loads answered this but i couldn't see exactly what i needed so apologies if i am repeating but i have a headache ><
    My laptop suffered a terrible virus and i had to format my HD. Now everything is reinstalled phew
    However, my ipod still has its music on it, i want to put that music back onto my laptop via my itunes library.
    I am worried that by using sync i will erase all the ipod music. as 'sync' will sync the ipod to the (Empty)Library.
    I need to sync the music on the ipod to the Library, so I will have my original Library from before back!
    Hope this makes sense, thanks for any help

    You can't sync or drag your non iTMS music back directly from an iPod to iTunes. The transfer of non iTMS content is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there is a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
    If you prefer something more automated then there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
    YamiPod Mac and Windows Versions
    iGadget Windows Only
    iPodCopy Mac and Windows Versions
    iPod Access Mac and Windows Versions
    PodUtil Mac and Windows Versions
    iPodCopy Mac and Windows Versions
    PodPlayer Windows Only
    CopyPod Windows Only
    The transfer of purchased content to authorised computers has been introduced with iTunes 7, look under under File>"Transfer Purchases from iPod". A paragraph on it has been added to this article: How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer
    If your iPod is set to update automatically you just need to take care when connecting back to your computer and an empty iTunes. You will get a message that your iPod is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Don't uncheck Sync Music it will be unchecked by default when you choose the manual setting: Managing content manually on iPod
    Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync again. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up in case you have problems again. External drives are comparatively inexpensive these days and you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.

  • I try to put mi Ipod touch in dfu mode but it doesn't work

    My Ipod touch doesnt respond, and i tried o put it in dfu mode to restore it like the technical support said to do it, and nothing happened..

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    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.
