I forgot my ipad password and locked my ipad. i tried hooking it up to the computer but it wont let me unless i unlock it first

This means you set the Passcode lock since the last time you synced your iPad with iTunes. Not required with iTunes on the computer used for syncing your iPad.
You need to place the iPad into recovery mode and you won't be able to update the iPad's backup before restoring.

You have posted to the iTunes Match forum, which your question does not seem to be related to. Is your question concerning iTunes Match or syncing with iTunes via USB?

My ipod wasnt loading facebook so i deleted it and re downloaded it and it frose. SO i rebooted it and it got stuck on the apple part of turning on. I tried to plug it in my computer but it wont connect. What should i DO?

I was on my ipod and my facebook wouldnt load so i deleted it and was redownloading it and it froze. I turned off my ipod and tried to turn it back on. In the process of turing it on it froze with the apple screen and now wont turn back on. I plugged it into the computer but it wont connect. What should i do?

Hold the home button and sleep button down together for 16 second when device is on. This will reset it in DPU mode which completely shuts of device. Once it has loaded it should be fixed

I lost my computer and I need to deauthorize all computer but itunes wont let me

I lost my computer and I already have 5 authorize computers but I need to authorize my new one. Itunes wont let me because it says I have to wait until december 15. Is there a way I could do it?

Hello,
Actually you can do it by yourself.
In iTunes, go to the iTunes Store > Sign in > click on your account > put your password > view account > in the Apple ID Summary section choose "Deauthorize all"
Now you can put your contents on 5 computers !
Cheers

Resetting User Password in Lion, Mountain Lion & Mavericks
Boot into your Recovery Partition by holding down the Command and R keys whilst booting.
When the Recovery screen appears, go to the Utilities menu and open Terminal.
In Terminal, type:
resetpassword
...a small app will open and allow you to choose the user for whom you want to change the password. If you are the admin, be certain that you choose your admin user. Type in your new password twice and give yourself a good hint. Click OK (or Done or whatever) and reboot, enjoying the use of your new, hopefully memorable, password.
Good luck,

HT1369 I have locked myself out of my ipad and it says connect to itunes to disable. i connected to my computer but it wont let me. what am i doing wrong?

If you are unable to restore then:
iPad: Unable to update or restore

My Iphone is on, but home and lock buttons are completely unresponsive. I can swipe the screen but i cannot do anything else. help me please :(

I was jus trying to download a few new apps when it said I had no storage left, so i went to delete some things, and after i was done, i tried to press the home button to go home. It didn't work, but yet if I clicked it the 3 times it would invert my colors still. I then tried to lock my phone or turn it off and neither worked.
I can still swipe on the settings screen but nothing else. The AssistiveTouch won't even take me back to my home screen. HELP

Try holding the Home and Power button together for at least 15 seconds or until the Apple logo comes on. Then let go and wait for the phone to reset and restart. This will take a few minutes and you will not lose any data.
If this does not work put your phone in recovery mode and connect it to iTunes. Then restore the phone to factory settings and then restore from backup. This will wipe your settings and data but if you have made a recent backup it should not be a lot.

I just synced my iphone to a new computer and lost all my itunes libary. It's on the computer but not on the phone.

I justtryed to sync my iPhone with a new laptop and lost my itunes library from the phone. I'd already moved iTunes to the laptop. What did I do wrong, and is there a way to reclaim the library?

Was the music purchased from iTunes?
Can you sync other music to the iPod?
What happens when you try to sync?
When you switch syncing computers you have to restore the iPod on the new computer. Did you do that?
You can only sync with one computer/iTunes library but you can manage music and videos among different computers. See:
Using iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers
