I forgot my passcode to my ipod, so it said ineeded to connect it to iTunes because it's disabled. So, i connected to itunes and it said "Ipod cannot be used because it's being locked with a passcode. Unlock passcode and try again". Well i dont know my passcode and its disabled so i can't do anyhting. Now what do i do??
Try connecting your iPod Touch to iTunes in recovery mode, allowing you to bypass the need to enter in the forgotten passcode. See this article for instructions on getting your iPod into recovery mode.

I can connect my iPhone to my work wifi but when I try to connect my IPad it will not connect. It says safari can not open page. What's up with that I have used IPad connected to work wifi before

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

Transfered photos from IMac with Iphoto 9 to a mac book with Iphoto 11 now Iphoto 09 errors out saying "You can’t open your current photo library using this version of iPhoto.You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iPhoto. Please quit and use the latest version of iPhoto." We have not updated or changed anything on the IMac all we did is transfer photos. Any help would be appreciated.
LarryHN is correct. The only way this message occurs is if the iPhoto Library database is upgraded to a newer version.
You could try holding SHIFT-OPT-COMMAND when launching iPhoto from the dock and checking only "Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" and hope it restores the previous database prior to the upgrade.
If that doesn't work, you can install iPhoto '11 on your iPhoto '09 computer. If I understood the iPhoto '11 Mac App License agreeement correctly, you can install it on any personal, non-commerical computer you own running 10.5, 10.6 and 10.7. -

Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall.
- Next try the manual install method of:

I have a Nano, I haven't ever registered it. It pops up an error message saying I have too many songs and it can't be synced. I need help.
Take a look at this link-> Apple - Support - iPod nano
specifically, the "Is there enough room on the iPod?" (about ⅓ of the way down this page)
in the Apple - Support - iPod nano - Syncing section.
If you still have the problem, the retailer who sold you the iPod nano can help you.

I forgot my password for my iphone 4 and it is now disabled. I am trying to restore it through itunes, but it say I have to put my passcode into my phone first. Is there a way to restore without using my passcode?
The instructions are in that link. Just follow them VERY CAREFULLY. Especially the part about:
Turn off your device and leave it off.
Plug in your device's USB cable to a computer with iTunes. [but DON'T connect it to the iPhone yet]
Hold down the Home button on your device as you connect the USB cable. Keep holding down the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
When you see the iTunes screen, release the Home button. If you don't see this screen, try steps 1 through 3 again.
When your device is connected, iTunes will open. You'll see a message saying that iTunes has detected an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch in recovery mode.
Hold down the Home button on your device as you connect the USB cable. Keep holding down the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen. -
