I am locked out of my ipod touch help

Hey guys i need help i am locked out of my ipod and i cant remeber my password can you please help me

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

    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.

    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up
    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 iPod backup that iTunes makes.

  • I am locked out of my iPod touch and i can't restore it as it asks for my password which i don't know how do i unlock it?

    I am locked out of my iPod and it says i cannot restore or back up due to me needing to unlock it and obviously i don't have my password. Please help, how do i unlock it?

    Options for when an iOS device gets locked because of forgotten password:
    Restore (and reset password) on your device by connecting it to the last computer to which it was connected:
    iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring iOS software - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    If you cannot connect it to the computer to which the device was last connected you will have to use recovery mode to completely reset the device, losing all data:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 - recovery mode (e.g., cannot connect to computer last used to sync device, iTunes still asks for a password)

  • Help!!!  I'm locked out and My Ipod touch will NOT go into recovery mode no matter what I do...I haven't read this problem anywhere!

    My grandson got his little hands on my ipod and has locked me out. I now get the red lable of doom and it tells me I must connect to Itunes to fix it.  Problem is I don't have the orginal computer I synced up with. (It crashed about 5 weeks ago).  Well I didn't think that would be that big of a deal becuase I have a lot of junk on my Ipod and had been thinking about re-formating it anyway.  Well I've tried every method out there and I can not get this thing into recovery. I powered it off. unplugged the usb cord from the Ipod but left it plugged into the computer. Held down the Home button and plugged in the USB cord. the little apple logo comes up. Then after about 10 secs it goes right to the disabled screen.
    I also tried it on different computers and tried different usb cords, I've tried also going into DFU mode...nothing it just goes right to the password screen...HELP...I've not read about this problem anywhere.

  • Locking out internet on ipod touch

    My daughter has an Ipod touch she loves. My problem is she is viewing items on the internet thru it which doesnt work for me. Taking the device from her will be a problem. I dont see a way off locking her out of the internet using the restrictions with passcode. Are there any other solutions?  I see I am not alone as there is a lot of people looking for solutions from Apple. I read someting about a app which offers content filtering.

    Please read Restrictions (Safari) on page 106.
    There have been some problems accessing pages on the Apple web site.  If the hyperlink gives you a "We're sorry" message, try again.

    You need to place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore the iPod via iTunes.  For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    SInce it is not your syncing computer you can only restore to factoy defaults/new iPod.  It will be like it was when you originlly purchased the iPod.
    If you had a backup you could restore from that backup.  The backup is located here. You may have to turn on showw hidden files.
    Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\

  • Why are USB audio accessories being locked out of the iPod Touch 4G?

    It's very strange. First the camera kit was never allowed to work on neither the iPhone or iPod touch. I can understand that; the iPad has more reserve power. But since the analog inputs were deprecated on the iPhone 4G and iPod Touch 4G, there has been talk but no action on replacements allowing stereo audio input to these devices via USB.
    Now I've started to notice a pattern: USB audio accessories like Apogee's Jam and Fostex's Ar-4i originally were advertised as working on both devices, but as they are released, they become only available to the iPhone. Since these are self-powered devices, there doesn't appear to be any reason for this distinction. Does anyone know why this is so? Thanks.

    It's a mystery....

  • I locked myself out of my ipod touch for 60 mins then actually typed the wrong password in again.  Now it is telling me to "connect to itunes".  I am unsure how to do this.  I am unable to use my ipod at all now. Please help.

    Hi,
    Due to my brother locking me out of my ipod touch I had to wait an hour to log in again.  Unfortunately when I did this, I, again put in the wrong password twice more, each time locking me out for a further 60 minutes.  On my 3rd attempt to log in the wrong password was entered again.  This time though instead of logging me out for another 60mins it now tells me to "connect to itunes" but I have no idea how to do this and I am now unable to use my ipod.  Please help.
