IPod Touch 4G forgotten password.. STUCK
Haven't used my iPod Touch 4th gen in nearly a year for preference of my Cowon Z2. Turned it on today to realize that I had forgotten the password...
I wanna restore it anyways so I held down the correct buttons etc etc to get it into recovery mode and it worked - but when connected to iTunes it comes back with either 'This iPhone is locked' or error code 0xE8000084 'iTunes cannot connect to this iPhone'
Tried DFU mode as well. Different cord, different laptop, same result.
I'm at a loss here. Is internal damage ruled out? Maybe the port is messed up. Maybe(probably not) it has something to do with jailbreak.
What the heck do I do, guys

You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.

My daughters iPod touch 4th gen is STUCK. Somehow it was disabled because of too many password attempts (my younger daughter was pushing numbers). I connected it to iTunes, did the press and hold power button + home button, then let go of sleep button. iTunes recognized it, gave me the option to restore it and did its thing. Here's the problem, now it won't GET OUT of that mode. After the first attempt, it wouldn't power on after I disconnected it from the computer. So I hooked it up again, and it says its detected an iPod in recovery mode and offers me the same "update & restore" option it did originally. Now what??? Please help. My daughter just got this two weeks ago for her birthday.
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- 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.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

or
Maybe:
Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
Next try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.

And as necessary:
See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- Then do the other actions of:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
paying special attention to item #5
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

I have a Ipod Touch 2G that is stuck on the "Connect to Itunes Logo" How can I get it back in operating order with out the access to a home computer? Can anybody Help me? I need it back to work.....
Connect the iOS device to your computer restore via iTunes. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
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 -

My ipod touch 5th gen is stuck on activation error, how do i fix it?
My ipod touch 5th generation is stuck on activation error and I got this for Christmas so I don't know what the ipod developer program is! please help
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. -
TS1363 My Ipod touch 4th Generation, Is stuck in recovery mode.
Okay, my Ipod touch 4th generation, Is stuck in recovery mode after trying to restore and update it to the latest software. The restore failed and it's now stuck in Recovery mode. I've tried everything, and it just wont work. It won't even recognise in Itunes. Help?
I don't know if you will see or get this because issue is old but I thought I'd try anyway. This is what happened to me. I don't see any responses, if you don't mind me asking, what ever happened with your ipod? This is my son's and I don't have a store around the corner so I was curious before I make a trip?

My iPod touch 4th gen is stuck in recovery mode with a broken 'lock' button.
My iPod touch 4th generation is stuck in recovery mode with a black screen and I can't get it out. It has a broken lock button and I have tried everything to get it out of recovery mode. Every time I plug it into iTunes, it recognises my iPod and says 'iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode. You must restore this iPod before it can be used in iTunes, so I have restored it several times and every time, it says there is an unknown error. Please Help!! (my iPod is IOS 6.0.1)
What is the complete wording of the error message that says unknown error? Usually more information like a error number is also given.

I went into my desktop PC the to Start/My music/iTunes folder.
In my folder there was nothing called ITunes Library.itl., but I had file called iTunes Library, in the center of it labeled "Lib", so I re-named it to "iTunes Library.itl.backup" Then went to the folder from iTunes" Previous iTunes
Library" and copied and pasted mine was iTunes Library 2011-04-02 right into the iTunes main folder.
Close your iTunes folder and then install the previous ver. 10.3 of the Apple link. I did not reboot PC. Did not use Cc cleaner nor add/Remove. then after 10.3 said finished installing 10.3 I clicked on my iTune Icon and iTune came up, iPod not plugged in yet.
Then I clicked on "let iTune to find all my music and install them", said towards bottom of iTunes.
Why we don't have the answer but iTune will put all your music in but you will have duplicates of the songs, so you will have your work cut out for you, takes time. plus some of my Artwork was missing, but I save that too.
I'm not Responsible for this instructions, this is what worked for me.
I think everything here is in order. Lot of my information came from all of you guys.Thank you. took a lot of reading, and trial and errors 2 1/2 day latter. -
My iPod touch 3rd gen is stuck on apple logo
My iPod touch 3rd gen is stuck on the white apple logo. It will not manually restart/restore if I hold the power and menu button. It does auto restart about every 15 minutes on its own. If I plug it into my computer, both my computer and iTunes will recognize it and lets me edit its contents, fully syncs without a problem, etc. However, if I try to Update/Restore Ipod iTunes will completely freeze until my iPod autorestarts at which point it will become "unfrozen" and say there was an error communicating with my iPod. I have tried using 2 different computers with the latest version of iTunes. PLEASE HELP!
