  • HT1430 need to reset ipod touch, passcode locked

    need to know how to reset ipod touch that is passcode locked

    If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup).
    If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.
    You may have to force iPad/iPod into Recovery Mode

    My daughter has locked her I pod touch with a password, how do I fix this?

    You'll need to connect it to the iTunes library you normally sync it with and restore it.  If iTunes asks you for this passcode before it will let you proceed, connect the iPod to iTunes in recovery mode instead using the instructions in this Apple support document.

  • How to reset ipod touch 5th generation without using itunes

    I am locked out of my IPod touch 5th generation because my password was changed on me. It says my ipod is disabled and I need to connect to itunes. However, I can not get itunes where I am so I need to know how to reset my ipod without itunes.

    Only if:
    If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone and use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
    You can also wipe the iOS device by installing the FindMyiPhone app on another iOS device and using that app to wipe the device.
    otherise with a computer with iTunes and an interent connection
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

  • How to synchronize iPod touch with Microsoft Exchange 2003?

    I just bought the iPod touch and would like to synchronize it with my calendar and contacts. I use Outlook 2003 SP3 on PC and it is connect to an exchange-server. I have the latest version of iTunes (v7.4.3.1). When I connect my iPod (v1.1.1) to my computer, I have no problem with synchronizing music, video, pictures or Podcasts. When I look under Devices and Info-tap, I cannot select any contacts, calendar or bookmarks. Under calendar, it says: There is no supported calendar program. I have tried to read all posted threads, but non-helpful. How do I fix this, please help?

    Yeah, unfortunately, Apple didn't get compatibility for Exchange 2003 working for OSX (it does for iPhone, but not desktop OSX.)
    Me personally I'm on Exchange 2007, but I also use [Google Calendar Sync|http://www.google.com/sync/index.html] to sync Outlook. My Macs and iPad go directly to Google Calendar and the PC use Google Calendar Sync to sync Outlook to Google Calendar. Google Sync only works for Outlook calendar and must be Outlook 2003 or later. (I've used Outlook 2007 and currently Outlook 2010.) Google Calendar is free so this may be an acceptable way to sync, assuming your work PC has internet access and can be left on for the sync app to run.
