IPod Touch Frozen and password protected

I charged it just last night on a wall outlet extension, unplugged it and it is stuck on the iTunes connection with the USB cord picture. I tried restarting it, that doesn't do a thing, and I can not restore it or connect it to iTunes because of the password protection.

Okay...have you tried a reset of the iPod?
You may need to reset. Note: Only reset your iPhone or iPod touch if it is no longer responding.
To reset
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • Lost ipod touch it was password protected can apple track it.  i have the serial number

    lost ipod touch it was passcode protected.  can apple track it.  i have the serial number

    Apple does not track stolen devices. If you didn't have the Find My iPod touch app installed, you're pretty much out of luck.

  • IPod touch frozen and cannot unlock

    My son's iPod touch is frozen the screen will go on and just display "3MIHEHHR MOBN...." which seems like it's in a different language.  He said he was fooling around in languages.  When I plug it in via computer, i was hoping to set to default settings to unlock it.  But it knows the ipod is password protected.  Is there any other way of unlocking this device so I can get this working again for him?
    Thanks,
    Robin

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - 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 another cable       
    - 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.

  • IPod touch frozen and itunes cannot detect iPod?

    It just began with me connecting my iPod to my mac and a window popping up saying "The software required for communicating with the iPod is not installed correctly, and you must manuually eject the ipod before each disconnect".I didn't know how to update it again (because my itunes is the lastest version already). You can't even see the contents (music, apps, books) of my ipod on itunes. I forgot to eject it manually today and now my ipod is frozen on the homescreen where all the apps are. Its been frozen for like an hour. I've tried holding the off button but to no avail.Now... my frozen ipod doesn't even show up on itunes. I need help!! (its a pretty old ipod touch with no camera)

    Did you try to reset by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, untilt he Apple logo comes back again? If this does not work, try to connect in recovery mode, explained in this article:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore

  • IPod touch stolen and passwords changed but I'm concerned about the saved emails.

    My ipod touch got stolen and I changed all my passwords to emails and accounts. If the stealer tries to open up the email account will the ipod touch automatically delete all the already downloaded emails or will those downloaded emails always be there?

    Unless you remotely wiped the iPod, the alrady downloaded email are viewable on the iPod if they can get past your screen-lock.
    If you had already set up the FindMyiPod feater  (Setting>iCloud) and wif is on you may be able to wipe the iPod by going to icloud.com, loging in and going to FindMyiPhone,

  • Ipod Touch Frozen and Unresponsive, not recognized by Macbook

    My Ipod Touch suddenly froze and stopped working. I have a black screen, tried the Ipod "reset" by holding both buttons for at least 10 sec. The apple symbol comes on, then the screen goes back to black. Tried this both connected and not connected to my MacBook. Ipod is not recognized when attached to USB by Itunes or MacBook. I downloaded the current version of iTunes with the same results. Please help.

    I would try and put the touch into a recovery mode.
    1. Start iTunes
    2. Unplug the touch and try to turn it off (hold the sleep/wake button until you see the red slider and turn it off. This may not work so go to step 3)
    3. Hold down the Home button and, while continuing to hold the button down, plug the touch USB cable back into your computer.
    4. Continue to hold the button down until iTunes responds with "an iPod has been detected in Recovery mode". Follow the onscreen instructions and restore the device.

  • I lost my ipod touch which is not protected by a password, how to remove email info?

    Hi,
    I lost my ipod touch which is not protected by a password. How can I prevent the new 'owner' to have access to my email? I changed my email password already, but I'm wondering if one can still have access to the email without entering the new password, (it is the case with my new phone, nexus5), since the mail app automatically syncs with my email...
    Thanks
    Carmen

    Did you have Find My iPhone turned on on the device?
    If so, go to https://www.icloud.com/ and go to Find My iPhone. Click on the iPod, and even if it is no online, set it to Lost Mode. You can lock it and put a message on it. Once it comes back online, it will be locked.
    Cheers,
