Ipod is not recognizing my passcode, please help!

This is the second time I have put a passcode lock on my ipod. I just put a passcode on my ipod about 10 minutes ago. I know I have not forgotten what it is because I wrote it down and it is the same password as last time. Not it says "Ipod diasbled" in red. I don't know what to do!
I am completly worried because I don't want to erase my ipod and I need it for tomorrow. Is this a glitch? I downloaded the new ipod update software last week, and maybe that did something. I am also not willing to spend money getting it undone, because I know this is not my doing. Please help.

I just went to the express lane help, and no help was found.
I realized that this question sounds weird, but if I don't get any help, I'm going to the apple store very unhappy. This is the 4th time something has gone wrong and it will be my 5th Apple Genius bar visit this year for the same ipod.

Ipod not recognized by Itunes, please help!!

Hi,
When I connect my ipod to my computer the follwing message comes up-
"USB device not recognized- One of the USB devices attatched to this computer has malfunctioned and windows does not recognize it."
I've tried everything I can think of... downloading the latest software updates and the latest versions of itunes etc but still no progress.
When I attempt to configure the ipod using the software supplied with it or one of the software updates issued on the site the ipod and computer both freeze and nothing happens.
The Ipod is recognized by my computer but there is no sign of it in itunes.
Has anyone got any suggestions!?
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks, James

>I should mention that on my second try installing it I was able to upload songs to it, however it seemed that the songs I unchecked made it and the checked ones did not.
Hmmm... it may have to do with the song format?

IPod is not connecting with iTunes - please help

When I plug in my iPod into the computer, it is not connecting. I thought it was the cable at first, but it is not because I've tried different ones. Please help!

Have you tried the 5R's with the iPod?
Repair permissions with Disk Utility.
Charging or not - try another cable.

HT4113 I need to unlock an ipad -- but do not know the passcode, please help

I need to unlock my son's ipad -- one of his friends has set a passcode but I do not know what it is.
Itunes won't connect to the ipad without the passcode, please help

If you can't get his friend to remove it, then you will need to connect the iPad to the computer that you normally sync to and you should then be able to reset the iPad and re-sync your content to it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212) - you may need to put the iPad into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808

IPhone not recognized by iTunes, please help!

Yesterday i updated iTunes to its latest version (10.1.1) in order to be able to update my iPhone 3GS to the latest OS version hoping to fix a problem with the phone's volume which goes all the way to low on its own. But ever since i updated iTunes my phone is not recognized by iTunes, yet it is recognize by my PC. I connect the phone, it beeps when connects, and the window that allows me to browse through the phone's camera roll opens, and it shows under My Computer. Yet it never appears under devices in iTunes. I have tried every single step recommended by apple.com without results. Does anyone knows how to fix this?? I need to back up my phone and i cant do it right now

Hello Mr. Mai,
I would be concerned as well if my iPhone and iPad were not recognized by iTunes. Thank you for providing all the information with the steps you took in regards to this issue. I found an article with a few more steps you can take (you can skip the steps you have already taken):

My Ipod will not sync with Itunes - PLEASE HELP

I have a bunch of songs on my ipod that I have from my previous computer and they will not sync with Itunes on my new computer. I have authorized the computer, I have also selected the "transfer purchases from ipod" option, I have spent the last day reading through FAQs but have found no solution. How do I fix the problem? Thanks in advance for your help.

The transfer purchases option only works with music purchased from iTunes and you don't say if this is the case.
Here's some other option for Windows users.
First, try this method which works on some Windows PCs.
Enable your iPod for disk use.
See: iPod Disk Use.
Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
If this doesn't work (and it may not because officially it's not supposed to), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it can be messy.
Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
Another free program is Pod Player.

Iphone 2g is NOT recognized in Itunes - PLEASE HELP

I have been using this iphone virtually with no problems for months, til I went to add some music and now I get the message "itunes cannot read the contents of the iphone. Go to summary tab in iphone preferences and click restore this iphone to factory settings."
***??? Why do I need to restore this iphone and lose all my stuff that I spent hours and hours adding the way I like it!! Everything on the phone still works!!
PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME.
Thanks very much for your time and help.

As far as the iPhone not being seen in iTunes, the link below will provide some assistance.
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1495
As far as why does the iPhone need to be restored. If the iPhone is not connected are you able to use it normally?
If so have you tried connecting the iPhone into the different USB ports other then the one you are currently using?
Tips
*Do not connect iPhone to USB Hub, Keyboard that has USB Ports, or USB Cable extender if possible
*Disconnect any un-needed USB Devices such as Printers, Scanners, Cameras, Etc. That are not needed at the current time
*Try to connect and use back USB ports if you have a Desktop

IPod does not sync music. Please help before I die. LOL

ok so i plug in my usb to my iPod after i dragged the music into itunes from folders and what not and you know usually when the music syncs it will till u the title of the songs and stuff at the top while its syncing right? well i add a lot of new songs and it just says that its syncing but doesnt show the process of it being synced...then when it says done i go back in my ipod and the new music isnt there...i've reset the pod a bunch of times..restarted my computer..reinstalled iTunes..i dont know what else to do..if u can help me it would b greatly appreciated..thank you!!

*i've reset the pod a bunch of times*
Have you tried "restoring" your iPod? Restoring will erase the iPod's hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings. Once the restore is complete follow the on screen instructions to name the iPod and automatically sync your songs and videos onto the fresh installation. Press Done and the iPod will appear in iTunes and start to sync. If you want to sync using selected playlists uncheck the box beside the sync automatically instruction and press Done, it will default to manual mode and you can choose whatever setting you like: Restoring iPod to factory settings with iTunes 7

Find my Ipod is not working on Icloud please help!

This probably seems stupid. But when I go into I cloud and click on find my iphone it will take forever to load and eventually say that some error has ecorred. My settings on my ipod should be correct. However if someone can help i would be so grateful.

i believe you are using an apple device for the first time
once you connect your device to the computer, on the left handside in centre of itunes your device will appear
if you dont know how to add songs and other stuff, just look for it on youtube which will be easy to follow

Disk Utility Not Recognizing Hard Drive - PLEASE HELP!!

So, I just bought this Power Mac G4 from a friend to run my Digidesign hardware. I turned it on this afternoon to install the Apple software for the wireless mighty mouse. When I turned the computer on, the second hard drive was not present in Finder, and I could not locate it in Disk Utility.
I have two hard drives present in the computer ... the 120gb main hard drive and this 2nd internal 80gb hard drive. I'm not very "tech savvy" with the comptuer outside of running protools ...
Does anyone know what the problem could be? Or is it likely that the hard drive just fried??
Thanks,
Justin

When two hard drives are attached to the same data ribbon cable, connected to the same IDE controller, one drive must be configured as "master," and the other drive configured as "slave." This is accomplished by placing a plastic jumper (sometimes two jumpers) across a specific pair (or pairs) of pins on the back end of the drive. If the manufacturer didn't apply a label to the drive with jumper designations, the user manual or manufacturer's web site will have the info needed for that specific hard drive. The drive connected at the end of the ribbon cable should be configured as master, and the drive connected to the middle connector as slave. If the 80 GB drive isn't mounting, it's probably configured the same as the 120 GB, so check both drives.
