Ipod touch 5th generation wont restore

Hi
My ipod's password was entered wrong too many times and now it says " ipod disabled, connect to itunes".
My ipod has never been syncronised before. So i put it into recovery mode. The computer says that it has to update the ipod first so i start updating it.
Once the update is completely finished downloading, it just returns to the original screen of the restoration and nothing has happened to the ipod.
Please help.
Thanks

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 If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue.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.

Then try restoring on another computer.
Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

    My ipod touch 5th generation wont charge or turn on at all,
    i upgraded to iOS 6.1.3 and after that my ipod started having trouble charging, at first i though the lightning cable was the problem so i bought 2 more lightning cable chargers and my ipod still would'nt charge, so it died. now the only thing my ipod does is when i try to turn it on it shows the apple logo and then the screen goes off and does it again for a few times and then the screen stays off and my ipod gets really hot but wont turn on for the rest of the day help!!

    The hotness indicate a hardware problem.

  • Since updating iTunes my new iPod touch 5th generation wont show up.

    I recently updated iTunes on Friday. But now that I try to sync my iPod touch 5th generation it is not showing up in iTunes. The iPod asks if I trust this computer and I click yes but nothing happens. What should I do?

    In case you haven't found this yet... I managed to fix the problem with my iPhones by updating the USB device driver.  The instructions are in this thread:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5822553?tstart=0
    or you can follow this knowlege base article on the Apple site:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    (for me the problem required me following the instructions in the "If only Apple iPhone, Apple iPad, or Apple iPod appears" section, but it may be different in your case)
    Maybe Apple updated the USB drivers in this updated version of iTunes?  I'm not sure why the installer failed to install these drivers automatically (maybe that isn't possible??).  Maybe this is just a Windows problem and has nothing to do with Apple?  Who knows...

  • My ipod touch 4th generation wont restore or turn on, how do i fix it?

    I was using my ipod as usual, nothing seemed wrong with it and it died because it needed a charge.
    so i put it on the charger and when i went back to grab it for use it wouldnt turn on and my itunes was telling me i needed to download the newer itunes and also restore my ipod. Im a little upset about having to restore it, but what other choice do i have? but the worse part is it wont let me restore it.
    its telling me there was a problem restoring it and it said the problem number is 1601 i think. i dont know what that means so i dont know how to fix it so if anyone else knows please let me know. its the only way i have to contact my friends and family. im losing everything off my ipod including pictures from when my daughter was born and also the  video from a very good friends wedding. so please let me know what i can do to fix this error.

  • Ipod touch 1st generation wont restore?

    Hi
    I just purchased an ipod touch 1st Gen 16gb from ebay, its second hand but the company that sold it to me have said its been fully checked and works perfectly. However When I have tried to sync my songs to it itunes freezes and i have to close it down. So i tried to restore the ipod on 2 different computers and now it wont restore. In itunes it just has the preparing ipod for restore logo flashing and then doesnt do anything else. As mentioned have tried it on 2 different computers, one running windows 7 and another running windows xp. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • IPod touch 5th generation battery drained and restored after app is closed

    I got my iPod Touch 5th generation about a year ago. I noticed it has since had an issue on the battery life that I thought was common so I did not do anything about it.
    The issue my iPod has is that whenever I use an app that requires immense energy to function, the battery drains real quick. But after I closed the app, the battery life fills up again like it has only used a little.  Video recording especially drains the battery the most where after 10 minutes of recording, it pops up saying 20% battery left from fully charged and at one point it even shuts down itself. But when it was turned on, the battery life is still around 75%. Before it runs on iOS 8, the issue is more apparent although it still exist now with the latest update.
    I did not know until just recently that I found out it is a big issue where I could not have a video recording that can last longer than 10 minutes or so. Is there anything I could do to solve this? Are there anyone else out there that has this sort of issue?

    Hey Leowjowee-
    I'm really sorry if I'm about to state the obvious, but have you tried fully resetting the iPod touch and setting it up like it's brand new?
    It's a crappy answer, but sometimes these are device specific issues, and other times, it can happen just because the kinks haven't been worked out of a new upgrade. I work in consumer IT, and the first thing I would suggest to a client with this issue (especially after an upgrade from one version of the operating system to another), would be to restore (reset the iPod to factory specs) the iPod touch, set it up like the day I bought it, only with the upgraded operating system, and see if there's still an issue. Sometimes, doing an upgrade like you probably did to get from iOS 7 to iOS 8, where it keeps all your previous settings from the last operating system, can cause bugs in the new code.
    Here's instructions for a reset: http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201252
    Keep in mind that this will completely erase any content you have on the iPod touch, so be careful to make sure you have a backup of the device before you do anything. You can back up your device to iCloud or your computer with these instructions:  http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203977
    iOS 8 is brand new, and I'm sure Apple is working out the bugs - but these things happen...

  • HT1222 I have a Ipod touch 5th generation and for got my passcode and need to  change it but every time I connect it to itune I get a error message say it has tobe unlock before it can be restored

    My wife and I brought a Ipod touch 5th generation for our grandson after which he let a bully at school take it from him and change the passcode. We retrieved the ipod from the young man with a fare amount of run around.  But now we are lockout. of it and when we look up how to reset it we where told to connect to itune,but when doing so I got a error message stating that the device had to be unlock before it could be restored. Is there another way that I may restore the Ipod?

    If you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.

    If your iPod is defective and not abused Apple will exchange it at no cost.

    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.

  • Mi ipod touch 5th generation randomly turned off and it wont turn back on or charge. what should i do?

    hi!
    i have the ipod touch 5th generation and last night i was using like i normally do,but the it just turned off and i thought that my battery died so i put it to charge but im pretty sure that my battery was at least 40% so i found that a little bit odd and when i plug it in it didnt make any sound and nothing showed on the screen. I kind of just ignored it so i let it charge the whole night and the next morning when i woke up the firts thing i did was to check on it. My ipod still wont turn on or charge and tried to connected to my computer but nothing shows up. i will really appreciate if someone could help me.
    thank you (:
