HT1430 I LOSTED MY IPOD AND I JUST FOUND IT BUT I DON'T KNOW MY PASSWORD, HOW CAN I RESET IT ?
I FORGOT MY PASSWORD TO MY IPOD AND I NEED TO KNOW HOW TO RESET IT ?
Please don't shout. It's annoying to read posts like that.
Restore, if iTunes will let you. Everything except the password will be restored. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. Be forewarned that it takes a long time. 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."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

I lost my ipod touch 5 in the school, but i don't know am i open the icloud, and i don't know how to using icloud to find my touch, this touch is very important, have a lot of information
Did you set up find my ipod on the ipod itself?
Is the ipod on?
Is it connected to wi-fi?
If yes to all the above then go to icloud.com and see if you can find it.
Otherwise it cannot be tracked at all. -
I was given an iPhone 4 from a friend and I was trying to reset it to factory settings but it won't let me. It's keeps popping up with a box to put in my friends iCloud account password in but I don't know it. How can i delete their iCloud account without knowing their password?
You cannot delete the iCloud account that is signed on to Find My iPhone unless you know the password. This is called the Activation Lock:
ACTIVATION LOCK
It is an anti-theft security measure that is a part of iOS 7. You can only get around this by following the steps in this support article:
Find My iPhone Activation Lock: Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
Contact your friend. This is the only way around the lock.

I dropped my iPOD and I just have a gray screen with the apple picture. How can I fix this
Please help. I am unable to access my iPOD Classic.
What have you tried so far in terms of troubleshooting? Have you tried resetting the iPod by pressing and holding both the Select/Center and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear?

my friend gave me ipod touch with all his accounts, i created new accounts but when i went on the appstore and tried to update apps installed by him,i was asked his account's password! i dont know his password.how can i use my account to update apps?
You can't. Apps and really all content purchased/downloaded through one Apple ID is forever tied to that Apple ID. In the case of Apps they will always request that Apple ID to update as they are licensed to that Apple ID.
In reality, the Apps were licensed to that Apple ID by the developer. And cannot simply be given away to you for you to use.
He should have wiped the iPod clean so you could set it up for your use without any of his accounts or purchased content as you are not really licensed to any of those Apps.
Your friend should have followed this support document before giving the iPod to you:

I just bought this ipad and cannot log out from icloud because i dont have the password.how can i log out from icloud?need help
You need to return it to the seller and get your money back. You cannot reset or use the device with another AppleID installed unless you know the password for that ID.
If the device has been jailbroken, no one on here can give you any further help...the Terms of Use prohibit us from doing so. -
ok i need to unlock my ipod but i don't know my password i use itunes but i need to update at the same time this srcews up the itunes and i have to restart the computer i need to restore the ipod please help
Connect the iOS device to your computer and restore via iTunes. Place the iPod in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

I restored my phone and some of my purchases can't download because they're from other account I don't know the passwords to, can I just download them from my computer?
Apps are forever tied to the AppleID used to download them.
You can download the missing apps under your own AppleID;
if they are not free apps, you will have to pay for them.
