How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings        
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.

    You can restore the iPhone from backup on the last computer your iPhone synced with, this will allow you to reset the passcode http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414. If you do not have access to the last computer the phone synced with, you will have to force the phone into recovery mode & restore as a new device, all data on the phone will be erased  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808.

  • Forgot lock code on find my iphone. I lost my phone a few weeks ago and when it seems that it can never be returned i login to my account and put a code using find my iphone

    I Lost my phone at the office building with more than 10different company and thousands of employees. since no one returned the phone and the device was already turned off i tried logging in and use find my iphone to send a message. But after days since no one is returning it i tried putting passcode on lock mode... And who would have thought that after a week someone will call me and told me that she will return the phone. But unfortunately i forgot the lock code so i cant use it. I dont want to restore it since my photos and videos are not sync to my itunes. if only theres a way that it would only just require my apple id and not the 4 digit code

    There's no way to unlock it without restoring it.

    You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.
    You can restore from a backup if you have one from BEFORE you set the restrictions passcode.

    the ONLY way to reset the lock code if you forgot it is to flash your device with flasher3.5.  you will have to flash both the os and the EMMC.
    you can follow my directions HERE
    since you wanted to reset your device and start over, this will make your device just as if you took it out of the box for the first time.

  • Forgot lock code on iphone

    I purchased someone's older 3S Iphone to use and had changed the 4 number lock code after adding all of my phone numbers from my old phone. I now have forgotton the pin code and I had never got around to connecting it to my I-tunes. I am not worried about losing the info that I entered I just would like to activate my phone. Is there anyway to delete the lock code or to recover it?

    Nope. You're about to lose ALL of your data. Since you've never backed up, there will be no backup to restore from. Thus, your only option, if you can't remember the passcode, will be to force the phone into recovery mode & restore as a new device. All data on your phone will be erased.
    Turn your phone off, then:
    Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still dont see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new. In your case, new will be your only option.

    You'll have to wipe it out and restore from backup to recover, that'll reset the code but you'll lose any data since your last sync.

    I forgot the code to the lock screen to my phone and its telling me to connect to itunes....what do I do?

    You need to connect the phone to your computer's iTunes, and that should recognise the phone and let you reset it back to factory defaults - you can then restore/resync your content to it.
