Try recovery mode again, as outlined in the first article I gave you. Make sure there are no Firewalls turned on or any Anti-Virus software running. If it errors out again, pay attention to any code shown.

My daughter has entered the wrong passcode too many times on her iPOD Touch, it is now disabled. When I connect to iTunes, it will not let me go any further until I enter the correct passcode. I no longer get the option to do this, all I get is iPOD disabled. Help Please
Restore the iPod from the computer to which the iPod is synced. For information and instructions, see:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
If that will not work, you'll need to put the iPod into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:

My iPad2 was being used by my wife. She put a passcode on it. She hasn't used this iPad for a while and forgot the passcode. She entered what she thought was the 4 digit passcode but the iPad did not accept it. She tried different combinations and eventually disabled the iPad. Now it has this message: "iPad is disabled connect to iTunes". I connected it to iTunes and iTunes is asking for the passcode to be entered into the iPad before it can be synced? I can't enter the passcode because the iPad is disabled. Please help how I can solve this. Thanks.
You may need to put the iPad into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 - you should then be able to reset the iPad and resync/restore your content to it.

Only the cellular service provider to which your iPhone is locked can assist you in unlocking the iPhone. No one here can assist you in skirting this restriction. No one can offer a solution beyond informing you that only the cellular provider can unlock the phone. -

IPod touchMy iPod touch is lock and my brother was trying too use it and he entered the wrong code too many times
Ok
I may be able to help you .
If you backed up your iPod prior to it being locked you may be in luck.
1. Hook it up to your Mac or PC
2.Open iTunes
3.Click on your iPod (on the left hand side somewhere)
4.Click on restore (in the centre somewhere)
5.follow the onscreen instructions
Once you have restored the device there should be an option that says restore from back up.
Click on that.
Hopefully this works. If it doesn't please let me no. -
I have followed the steps provided by apple to restore an iPod touch. It is disabled due to having the wrong password entered too many times. When I get part way through the restore process on my computer it pops up a box saying that it can't restore until I enter the passcode into the iPod. I have tried this same process over 5 times now and keep gutting the same results. It is my kids iPod and he has only had it since September. Someone please help me before I throw the thing through the window and my kid strangles me!!! Thanks!
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

Hello Buzzy78,
Try to put your iPhone in Recovery mode and then Restore it to Factory settings and see if you are able to get into your iPhone.

Last night I tried to update the software on my iPhone 4. It appeared to be successful and appeared to put contact info etc. back onto the phone. However, the phone seemed to stop responding properly to touch. This morning when I tried to access my phone the passcode was not working normally. At first it was still randomly letting me in (although not sure on what basis) but now it will not accept my passcode at all. Has anyone else encountered this problem? How do I solve? Thanks.
First, has your iPhone ever been hacked or jailbroken? If so, that may explain the behavior.
If not, and if you cannot get in using your passcode, try this:

please help me to open iPad again Seem to be locked ot after holiday. Message says not backed up for 3 weeks .I have charged it, plugged in,locked it and am in wifi zone but no response Help?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
You might try a forced shutdown to begin with, hold down the top and home buttons together until the device shuts down, then restart it. -
my ipod won't turn on! i've had it for a while , i just haven't come to use it for the past couple of years. i've tried charging it but it won't turn on. i don't know how to fix it. helpppp! please!
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.
