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.

    iCloud + Restoring my ipod question.
    I just restored my ipod touch for the first time because it was unreadable in itunes, and I had manually backed up my ipod to iCloud prior.
    The ipod is restored, but cloud not downloading any of my messages and pictures, and the other files that iCloud claims to back up?
    How do I put these on my restored itouch?
    Thanks everyone

    What messages? What app? The backup includes Messages (iMessage, SMS, and MMS),
    What photos? How did the photos get on the iPod
    The backup only includes photos in the iPod's camera roll album.

  • HT4314 I have just got a new ipod touch but my game centre games are on the old one and i don't want to start them again, can I transfer the stage i'm at or anything?

    I have just got a new ipod touch but my game centre games are on the old one and i don't want to start them again, can I transfer the stage i'm at or anything?

    The progress for some games will transfer since some games synce progress to a cental server. For other games you will have to have the backup of the old iPod.
    You can restore from backup or access the backup. See:
    How to transfer game saves between iOS devices, without iTunes, and without jailbreaking | TUAW - The Unofficial Apple Weblog
    If you have acces to the old iPod yu can make a backup by connecting the iPod to the computer and right click on the iPOd under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up. Then restore from that backup.

    Whenever I try to activate my 4th generation iPod Touch bought today, via my home router (Asus) which has a good signal, I get the warning: "Your iPod Touch could not be activated because the activation server cannot be reached." Very frustrating. When I try to activate it via iTunes on my HP laptop, it won't do it either. Very frustrated and unimpressed.

    You are running into the activation lock.

    You have to either enter the Apple/iCloud ID and password in order to activate the iPod for use. Or you can try to dissassociate the iPod for that account by:

  • HT1918 Hello, I have a account but I can't buy anything because I forgot my security questions and my rescue email.

    Hello, I have a account but I can't buy anything because I forgot my security questions and my rescue email.

    If you can't remember your rescue email address (and seeing the reset link via steps 1 to 5 on this page doesn't help you remember it) then you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get the questions reset.
    e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
    or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down this page to view (or change/add) your rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312 . Or you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570

    Re: I want to buy the app, but I can not because I forgot the security issues

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page should let you reset them : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

  • I forgot my security questions and cant get the link to reset them by email

    I forgot my security questions and cant get the link to reset them by email.  Can someone help me?

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed, filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • Why do I have to restore my ipod touch every 2-3 months because something has become corrupt? Is there no way to restore my ipod while saving my data as well?

    I constantly have problems with my ipod touch 4g. I previously owned an ipod touch 2g but I would always end up having to restore it because of something silly. This time, my 4g 8 gig ipod touch needs to be restored. I synced it to my desktop and I deleted some apps to free up space. After the sync, both itunes and my ipod show 0 bytes free and the "other" section takes up over 1 gig of space. Everyone says to restore it but I don't want to end up losing my data and music again. Is there anything I can do to keep my data and fix this little glitch?

    All the music should be on the computer so you can just sync the music back to the iPod after you restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod. Regarding app data, just export (email/file sharing etc) as much as possible so you can import it back.
