IPod Touch disabled and can't connect to iTunes?

My iPod touch 4th gen has been fully disabled so that it says 'connect to iTunes'. But when I do that, it says I need to unlock my iPod first, which I can't do because my iPod is disabled. What do I do? Also, I don't want to restore my iPod because I don't have some data backed up. Thanks.

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased. You have no other choise. In the future make sure you frequently backup your iPod.

If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

  • IPod is disabled and can't connect to iTunes

    HI,
    Can anyone help? My iPod touch is displaying a message " iPod disabled, connect to iTunes". When I try to connect to iTunes I get an error message "iTunes cannot connect this iPhone because of an unknown error 0xE8000065". Does anyone know what I need to do?
    Thanks,
    Ellie

    Hello,
    I'am not 100% sure about your problem, but a few things are needed to know what happened. One, did you hack or jeilbreak your device? If yes then you pretty much got brickwd. If not, then did you try to put your iPod in DFU mode and then restore? (DFU - Power+Home button for 10 seconds HOLD, and then home for another 10 seconds.) Hope this helps, though I'amnot sure about the cause.
    Best Regards

    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 must restore it, losing anything you have failed to backup or store on your computer or cloud service.

  • 3rd gen iTouch is disabled and can't connect to iTunes! HELP!!

    My 3rd gen iPod Touch is disabled and says to connect to iTunes, but when I connect I receive a message saying iTunes is unable to connect to my iPod because it is locked and has to be unlocked to connect. I can't connect if it's not unlocked, but I can't unlock it until it connects. What do I do? Taking it to the Apple Store is a last resort, and I can't connect it to iTunes.

    Did you try connecting it in recovery mode as described in this article?

  • I am rying to un-disable my disabled 4th generation iPodTouch. It says that I need to enter the password on my iPod but my iPod is disabled and says to connect to iTunes. Any help? It won't even show up in the left sidebar. Help?? :/

    I am trying to re-able my disabled iPod. It is a 4th Generation iPod touch 8gb. It has a crack screen and the lock/sleep button and the volume buttons do not work. It says in red ribbon on the top of the screen, "iPod is disabled Connect to iTunes". When I connect it to iTunes it doesn't show up in the left sidebar. Instead a message pops up and says, "iTunes could not connect to the iPod 'Madyz iPod' because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter you passcode on the iPod before it can be used with iTunes." What do I do? I would really appreciate help.(: thanks.

    If you can't enter the passcode then you have to place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore the iPod via iTunes. For ecovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    Note that this requires using the sleep/wake button.  If you are not successful then there is nothing else that I know you can do.

  • IPod touch 2G iOS4 can't connect to iTunes or App Store

    Since updating my 2G iPod touch to iOS4, I have been unable to connect to iTunes or the App Store. The device can connect to my wifi and Safari works, albeit significantly slower than before, but when I try connecting to either iTunes or the App Store, all that appears is the word 'loading'.
    None of the settings on my router have changed from before the update and I have tried rebooting, restoring the device and the router but nothing has worked.
    I have not been able to confirm whether this happens on a different wifi network as of yet but I was wondering if anyone else was experiencing the same problems.

    I've having a problem connecting to Itunes or the App Store from my Ipod Touch. I have a good wifi connection and am able to access webpages thru safari but when I try to go to Itunes it won't connect. I went to the settings>Store>tap sign in and entered my itunes sign-on info but it tells me it can't connect. In reading some of the help topics it says when you go into Store it should automatically show your account name after syncing with Itunes on your computer but mine doesn't show that. It just says not signed in.Any help would be greatly appreciated.
