how do i unlock a ipod 5th gen that has activation on it and i got it with a broken screen and repaired in now it asks for a icloud sign in

There's no way around activation lock.  If you purchased this from someone else you'll have to contact them and have them remove it from their account as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4515.  Otherwise you won't be able to use it.

  • I have an old Ipod 5th gen that I have been using for downloading music from my library.  Upon purchasing an Ipod touch and registering it in Itunes, I can no longer sync tunes to my old ipod.  How can I get that option back on my old ipod?

    - For other music you need a third-party program like one of those discussed here:

    Take your original proof of purchase from an Apple authorized retailer (or Apple Store) and the police report, make a Genius Bar appointment at your nearest Apple Store and they should be able to help you.

  • HT201210 how do l unlock an ipod when my daughter has forgot her passcode?

    How do l unlock my daughters ipod when she has forgot her passcode?

    Passcode Locked or Disabled
    If nothing else will let you unlock the device - after so many unsuccessful attempts will be locked out - You have to restore the device within iTunes. You want to use the same computer that you always sync with so that you can restore your app data and settings. You can restore with any other computer, but you will lose everything on the Device.
    Instructions can be found here.

  • How to back up an iPod 5th Gen iOS 8 without pass code

    Hello,
    The screen of my son's iPod touch was broken and now no longer accepts swipe or touch input.  We would like to back it up so we can restore on to a new iPod.
    We connected to iTunes on the computer normally used to sync it, but iTunes wants us to unlock the iPod before doing anything.  This is so far impossible due to the broken screen.  Sometimes, we can get the number pad up, but we can't enter more than the first number because the screen is so broken.
    Is there any way at all for us to back up this iPod?  We don't have anything backed up to iCloud, so that's not an option.
    Thanks for any tips, or condolences as the case may be.
    Charles

    There are a number of third party apps that will transfer data from the iPod to your PC.  Perhaps one may work for you.  A number of them are written up on this page: http://ipod.about.com/od/ipodcopybackuptransfer/tp/Top-Programs-Transfer-Ipod-To -Computer.htm You can also do a Google search on iPod transfer.  Also look up iExplorer, DiskAid, iFunBox, Aiseesoft iPhone Transfer, etc.

  • How can I save a page complete so that I can take our a print later on with its complete texts and pictures.I want that the copy of the page when printed should be exactly the same with all the details.

    When save a web page and try to take out print the pictures in the web page are not coming in the print.I want to know how to save the webpage so that when I take its print it comes out in its entirety without loosing any details of the original webpage.

    If you drop down the "Save as Type" list in the Save page dialog, you have the choices of HTML only (images not saved to your computer) and HTML complete (images are saved to your computer). Neither of these is perfect.
    If you really need a record of what you see today, I suggest printing the page to PDF. There are a number of free print-to-PDF products, as well as paid ones. This isn't perfect either, because some sites look different in print than on screen, but it avoids the problem of sites changing or links breaking after your browsing session ends, etc.
    If you have an example of a page that can't be printed as it appears on the screen, you could post a URL. For example, many blogs print in an "unstyled" format.

  • HT201371 How do I unlock my Ipod touch if it has been disabled completely?

    Hi guys, My name is Hayley, I kind of lent my Ipod touch to a friend and she changed the password, and I tried too many times to get in and now Im locked out. My Ipod says that its been disabled and to connect to itunes. How do unlock it????

    Disabled
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen                         
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.                        
    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.

  • My ipod 5th gen cannot connect to any locked wifi servers, it is under a year old, and im wondering if it is a technical prob, can i get i fixed or replaced

    WiFi problems I think.... Should I bring it to a store to get it checked out?  Whenever I type my password for the WiFi connection, it always says its incorrect and I sometimes can't even connect to the unlocked WiFi servers too

    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • TA44535 I have an Ipod touch 5th gen that will no longer charge. I have plugged it into my computer and a walll outlet. I have only had this since christmas.

    My ipod does not charge anymore. I have plugged it into an outlet and computer. I have bought a new charger /p>

    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 another cable       
    - 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.

  • Will apple take an ipod 4 with a broken screen and put money tward an ipod 5?

    My dad and sister think that if i take my iPod 4 in and try to get money for a 5 it'll be worthless how mine is can someone clarify if that is true or not.  I really want to put money for an ipod 5 badly.

    Hey Mazals, No, your family is right, you can recycle your iPod by turning it over to Apple, and as Skydiver119 has stated it's not much, 10% off the purchase price of a new Apple device, so a $300 iPod = $30 off the price, it's about what it would cost to get ride of an electronic device if you took it to a recycling center, you just can't throw these things away in the trash. Some electronics store will give you more toward the purchase of a new product, provided you buy the replacement from there store. (Generally, the device has to be in good working order, cracked screen may not qualify). I don't which ones, you'll have to do some research. Your other option is fix you iPod and continue to use it, BUT, there's always a but... you need to way in if it's worth fixing. Used iPod 4 are selling for about the cost to replace the screen-- provided you do the labor to replace the screen. Not worth doing if you plan to fix it and sell it. What ever you do, make sure you make a full backup to your computer before you recycle, repair, or sell. If you decide to sell don't forget to untether it from your computer, unlock it wipe it clean, so the next owner, can use it. Since your sights are set for a new iPod, I would recycle with Apple. (Skydiver119 has given you all need to complete this task). Hope this helps, Cheers.
