I forgot my ipod touch 5 passcode, itunes wont let me restore

Okay so heres the problem: i have forgotten my password to my 5th gen. Ipod touch. I have tried restoring it, didn't work because of the find my ipod thing. So i put it in DFU mode and itunes told me that it could take up to 60 hours to update and restore. My mother kinda flipped at the idea, but said okay go with it. Half an hour later the whole thing was interrupted  and little box came up and said it timed out. I really need help here please! I'm using my old ipod

Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall.
- Next try the manual install method of:
iDevice Troubleshooting 101 :: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch
Place the iPod in recovery mode after the firmware download is complete and then restore using the instructions in the article. Sometimes recovery mode timeouts and returns to disabled before the firmware download is complete.
- Then try on another computer

  • I needed to reset my iPod touch because my pass code was changed and I didn't know what it was, but now iTunes wont let me restore it what do I do?

    Please help me!! I needed to reset my iPod touch because my pass code was changed and I didn't know what it was, but now iTunes wont let me restore it what do I do?

    You'll need to connect it to the iTunes library you normally sync it with and restore it.  If iTunes asks you for this passcode before it will let you proceed, connect the iPod to iTunes in recovery mode instead using the instructions in this Apple support document.

  • Hello my question is how can i get this circle off my ipod touch its not letting me go on my lock screen i try restoring it but itunes wont let my restore it

    Please answer my question, I really need my iPod Touch back.

    First try a reset:
    Hold the home and power buttons at the same time until the Apple boot logo appears. No data will be lost.
    If that doesn't work, try a restore again. If necessary, place the iPod in Recovery Mode: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • Ipod is locked in itunes wont let me change anything

    I just installed my new iPod on the computer and everything is working smoothly except for one thing: On my itunes screen my entire ipod section is locked (theres a lock icon on the screen) and i can't select any songs or make playlists etc etc
    I've tried everything and I can't figure out how to unlock it. The ipod is unlocked and it works properly but its the ipod part of my itunes that is locked. Please help.

    Change your edit > preferences > ipod
    to manual update. Auto update puts the lock there.

  • I forgot my iPod touch's passcode.

    I have tried restoring my iPod, but as soon as it finishes trying (I think it says it's 'updating') it says the network connection has timed out. What should I do?

  • My ipod touch is disabled for over 21 million minutes and it wont let me restore it or put it dfu mode. I even took it to the geek squad and they couldnt fix it. Please help me.

    I forgot my ipod touch's passcode and it died. After a couple months i pulled it back up and it was locked out for 21 million minutes and i looked it up on the internet and couldnt fix it with anything. I then took it to geek squad and they couldnt even fix it. Dfu mode wont work, cant connect it to itunes, cant restore or recover it. Please help me.

    Use Device Firmware Mode...
    1.     Turn off your ipod To do this, hold the home and sleep buttons for 10 seconds, ignore slide to power off message.
    2.     Release the power button when you see the apple logo (keep holding the home button)
    3.     Keep holding until you see a message.
    Now restore from a backup!
    Alternatively you can wait!

    I forgot my Ipod touch 5th generation passcode. Right now my Ipod is disabled.I went on Itunes on my computer to restart my entire Ipod but when I connected my Ipod to my computer it said       'To allow access,please respond on your Ipod touch'   but it obviously can't respond on my Ipod since it's disabled.
    I haven't synced my iPod data on my computer so i dont care if everything gets erased on my Ipod.

  • I don't have access to a computer and so,without physically  attaching my iPod touch to PC devices, can you manually restore an apple iPod touch, restrictions passcode online to iTunes and restore it to store purchased factory settings?

    i don't have access to a computer and so,without physically  attaching my iPod touch to PC devices, can you manually restore an apple iPod touch, restrictions passcode online to iTunes and restore it to store purchased factory settings?

    Sorry but no. The only way to restore an iPod to factory settings is through iTunes on a computer. You will need to get access to a computer somehow. If you can get to an Apple Store, they can probably help you.
