Ipod keeps disabling after entering passcode

Earlier today my ipod wouldnt accept my passcode so I assumed that I must be doing something wrong so instead of waiting an hour I restored my iPod. When it prompted me later I put in a new passcode. Now I made this one simpler because I didnt feel like getting a headache but when I tried unlocking it, it kept saying "wrong passcode." Now I can just restore my iPod but I want to have a passcode on it to keep my stuff secure. What's going on? My iPod is up to date on iOS and its the second to last generation, before the new charging cords were brought in.

Restore again to regain access to your iPod.
Then test the screen to ensure you do not have any dead spots on the touch screen
Test using  very simple passcode like 0000

    You need to place the device in recovery mode ...
    f you can't remember the Passcode, you need to restore the device from the computer it was last synced with.

    I think you should call via phone or perhaps take it to a phone store. I suggest taking your id, box packaging and other necessities such as the reciept of the phone being purchased.

    There is no "recovery". If you can't remember your passcode, you'll have to force the phone into recovery mode, as described here, & restore it:

    This will remove the passcode.

  • My ipad is disabled after entering wrong password

    Please help me. My ipad is disabled after entering wrong password. i actually forgot my password and in the course of trying for several times, it became disabled. Please how can i enable and unlock it. I tried connecting to iTunnes on my laptop but the iTunnes could not connect, saying the ipad is locked.
    Please how can i get the ipad back to use.
    Thanks

    I've never set a passcode on my devices. I already have enough of them between work and my mail accounts, FacBook, yahoo, etc. If i ever do and I have a problem, I'll remember that this information is out here...

  • Delay after entering passcode; also delays on keyboard entries.

    After updating to 7.1, there is a delay after entering passcode before system recognizes the entry; same thing with any application requiring keyboard entry of information.

    Try reset all settings
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings
    Note: Data will not be affected but settings for Wi-Fi, FaceTime, Message, Home Sharing, Wall Paper, Sound etc will be reset

  • Keeps saying my ipod is disabled after i try to put in my password.  it says i have to wait 60 mins to try again.  after waiting 60 mins i try again and the same thing happens!

    my ipod keeps saying its "disabled" after i type in my password.  it tells me to try again in 60 mins.  after 60 mins i try again and the same thing happens.   how do i get it to unlock?

    Evidently it looks like you've forgotten the passcode or it's being entered incorrectly each time. What you can do is Restore the iPod as a New Device through Recovery Mode in iTunes and then restore from backup afterwards.

  • How to make locked iPod Touch to display "enter passcode"?

    My niece tried to unlock my iPod several times. Now it says "iPod is disabled connect to iTunes."
    How do I make it displaying passcode screen again so that I can enter the correct passcode?

    You have to restore the iPod

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    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.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:                         
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

  • IPod keeps crashing after updated with IOS 4.2 Beta

    The iPod keeps crashing going back to the main screen with my iPad after updated with IOS 4.2 beta 2. Any solution? Anyone has the same issue?

    You will probably get several comments from some of the developers that hang out here about moving the question to the developer's forum. Not many of those using the Betas will comment on them on here due to non-disclosure agreement with Apple.
