  • My ipod touch is locked up and when i hook it up to itunes it says that it cant be connected to itunes because it is locked. how do i resolve this

    my ipod touch is locked up and i was told by itunes that i would have to go on and restore it but when i attempt thid it reads that it cant because the passcode is locked up. please help

    Connect the device in to iTunes in recovery mode using the instructions in this Apple support document and restore the device.  This will allow you to bypass the passcode.

  • I dont know apple ipod touch id-user name and password, how do i create or purchase

    i dont know apple ipod touch id-user name and password, how do i create or purchase
                                             this is arockiarajfrompondicherry.

    What do you mean 'don't know apple iPod touch id-useer name and password, how do I create or purchase' ? What are you seeing on your iPod's screen, and what are you trying to do ?
    If your iPod is on the activation screen then you will need to type in the account id and password of the account that it's locked to : http://support.apple.com/kb/PH13695

  • I bought a used iPod touch for my daughter and I do not have reset code to reset the device. What can I do?

    I bought a used iPod touch for my daughter and I do not have a code to reset it....neither does the seller.  What can I do?

    that would sound all my alarm bells if this device is stolen.

  • My iPod touch's lock/hold and volume buttons do not work, my WiFi also does

    My iPod has done this for quite a while and the hold button and volume button (no matter how hard or long pressed) does not work. When I go to settings and look at the WiFi button it won't even let me touch it and it says "No WiFi" even when there is. My warranty has run out though and I don't want to have to pay a lot to repair it. Any help?

    I would first try resetting your iPod:
    Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    Next would be restoring it from backup via iTunes in your computer.

  • My ipod touch is locked up and non-responsive

    I have tried to reset by holding lock and power buttons at the same time with no success. I have a white screen and the ipod is non-responsive to anything.

    - If you can turn it off try placing the iPod in Recovery mode and then restoring via iTunes.
    - Otherwise let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try a reset (both buttons) and a restore.
    - If screen is still white then time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple stoe.

    - 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.

    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.

    If when you connect the iPod to your computer yu can't make a backup:
    - Contact a data recovery company
    - Maybe via How to perform iPad recovery for photos, videos

    Try restoring the iPod. First from backup and if problem persists, restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
