I forgot my password on my ipod touch (4thgen 8gb) but i do not want to lose everything so is there a way that i can unlock it without restoring it?

No. There is not.
You will have to restore.
Everything should be on your computer.
Is there some reason that everything is not on your comptuer?

    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

    - 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 usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • A song is listed as being 4:17 seconds but stops after 35 seconds and moves onto the next song, this happens in iTunes and on my iPod Touch 4th gen, both are recently updated to the latest software and the album was purchased today.

    This is bugging me quite a bit, I bought an album today and it lists the song as being 4 mins 17 seconds. However, as I mentioned, on both platforms it stops at around 35 seconds and flicks onto the next song in the case of iTunes or just stops playing audio for my iPod Touch 4th gen. It is a full song on Youtube and everywhere else I seem to look, so is this likely to be a software issue with iTunes/iOS or the song itself perhaps?
    Many thanks to any who can help!

    That suggests the track is damaged.
    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copy of the track and try redownloading a fresh one. See the following document for instructions:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. If under warranty, as you say (the warranty is transferable) and not abused Apple will exchange it at no cost.

  • IPod Touch 4th Gen 8GB won't turn on!!

    I turned off my iPod Touch 4th gen 8GB then tried to turn it back on. It was then stuck on the Apple logo (the power on screen) and it stayed like that for a while. I left it overnight and its still on the screen. Every now and then it flickers, the screen turns black then it goes back on to the Apple logo screen and it's starting to worry me. I've only had the iPod for two months and I use it alot. Hope you can help. Thanks

  • When attempting to purchase a song from i-tunes that was on an old ipod that I had to replace, the song is marked as 'purchased' and grayed out.  Is there a way that I can download these previously purchased items onto my new ipod?

    Lori,
    If you upgrade to iTunes 10.3, you can redownload your past purchases from the iCloud.  Just go to the home page of the iTunes Store and click on "Purchased" under "Quick Links."  It will bring up a list of your past purchases that are not currently in your library, with a little arrow icon that lets you download.

  • I have lost me ipod touch (4th Gen.) but it is dead, how do I get it back?

    I have lost my ipod touch (4th generation) and FindmyIpod is installed. However, my ipod is dead and so I can get it to play a sound... HELP!!!!

    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it.

  • HT1339 I was looking for info on restoring an iPod Touch 4th Gen. But iTunes presents the same Restore button, which when pressed, offers to update, not restore, to iOS 6.0.1. Why?

    I found this article when searching for info on restoring (to factory conditions) an iPod Touch 4th Generation. Now I thought this shipped with iOS 5.x (x unknown). But as mentioned too briefly in the header, when I click 'Restore' in iTunes, it offers not to restore, but to update. That is not what I want. I need to use this iPod Touch with Xcode 4.2 under Snow Leopard.
    So the question is: what is really going on here and why? Is it really true that 4th G iPod Touches ship with 6.0.1 instead of 5.x? If not, how can I get it to really go back to the original? Why is iTunes failing to offer a restore when I press 'Restore'? If I guessed wrong about which of my several machines running iTunes (some under Windows7, one under Snow Leopard)I used when I upgraded to iOS 6.0.1, would that explain iTune's failure to offer a true Restore?

    Restore will not replace an old iOS level. It will update the iOS level to the latest level. If you have to restore youre iPod that is what will happen. The iOS is not a part of a backup.

  • Ipod touch 4th loging screen graphs damaged, does not recover after restoring software

    My ipod touch 4th loging screen graphs are showing like coloured barcodes in movement. I have already restored the software with the updated version of itunes several times, but the problem continues. It is unaccessible, although I had an alarm programmed that keeps working. I never jailbreaked it, only downloaded a few books and apps from itunes. Is there a way to get it back to work normally from home?
    Thanks in advance.

    If you still have the problem after restoreing the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod (not from backup) then you likely have a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
