I can't restore my iPod touch because of error 3194. I've tried pretty much everything and it still won't restore. Help?!

I turned my iPod off last night and when I went to turn it back on, it got stuck on the logo. I tried to reboot it but it got stuck again. I waited about 15-20 minutes before rebooting it again. It got stuck once again. I plugged it into the computer. The logo came back up but it went away and it showed that I needed to download music from iTunes. I got on iTunes and said it found an iPod in recovery mode and it needed to be restored. Before restoring, I downloaded the updated version of iTunes. After trying to restore my iPod, it said it could not be restored because of error 3194. I then turned my firewall off, opened ports 80 and 443. Nothing seems to work. If you can help. Please do. Thanks.

Did you ever jailbreak or mess with TinyUmbrella? Sounds like your Hosts file is mucked up and pointing the wrong way.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Never mind, got it to work. I stumbled around on Google for a while and somehow ended up reading things from the 'jailbroken' community. They had easy instructions to get out of Recovery mode. Thanks anyway though!
P.S. For anyone who experiences this, here is the fix: Hold Power and Home in unison for 6 seconds, then power on as normal.

Can I use my ipod touch as a airplay receiver to hook up to my stereo and play my itunes music from my computer?

I just was wondering, Can I use my ipod touch as a airplay receiver to hook up to my stereo and play my itunes music from my computer?

I believe there's got to be a way you can use the ipod touch as a airplay receiver to use on the stereo.
The ipod touch has a port for plugging in earphones, that can also be used to plug a stereo into it.
Now somebody just has to make an app for using on ipod touch or iphone to plug directly into the stereos input
jack to play itunes music from your computer wirelessly, other than the ipod being plugged into the stereo with a wire.

TS1389 I tried all these steps and iTunes still won't let me play songs I paid for... Every time I authorize, it repeats that it's already authorized, but won't play because it's not authorized ... Catch 22

Delete and redownload them if doing so is free in your country.

Can't update my IPod Touch because I have to enter in a passcode but it wont let me on my Ipod

Okay so I turn on my IPod Touch today and their is a message saying I need to plug it into ITunes. I plug it in but ITunes says that I need to enter in a passcode to my IPod because it is locked. I can't do this because the screen is still up on my IPod saying I need to plug it into ITunes. So basicly I am unable to use my IPod Touch because of this. Someone please help if they have had the same problem because I have no idea how to fix this.

You need to place your iPod in recovery mode and then restore the iPod via iTunes on your computer. For recovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

Try:
- Try another cable.
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

My iPhone 4 broke so I had to buy a new one. I backed up the old one on iTunes and when I went to restore the new one it won't allow me to because it is saying that I have the wrong password. I tried changing the password and it still won't work. HELP!

My iPhone 4 screen shattered so I had to buy a new one. I backed up my shattered iPhone to iTunes so that I could restore my new one. When I went to restore it, it said that I had an incorrect password although I know it was right. I tried changing the password and it still told me that I had an incorrect password. So now my new phone has lost all its pictures, its music, its apps.... is there anything I can do to get my phone to restore?? PLEASE HELP!

If you can't get the password correct, you CANNOT restore from that backup.
However, if you've been using your phone as recommended by Apple, there should be minimal data loss.
Your iTunes library is on your computer, so you can synch all your apps, music, movies, ringtones, etc, on to your new phone.
Similarly, contacts should be synched to Address Book, Outlook, or a cloud service for you to easily synch back to your new phone.
Pictures taken from your old phone and not synched to your computer are lost, but you would have been synching those photos to your computer frequently as recommended. Other photos that you synch TO your iPhone are still on your computer.
You won't be able to get text messages back.
