Is there any way to get into your ipod through itunes and be able to unlock it with your passcode?

I dropped my ipod and now the bottom half of my screen isnt working too well and I can't get my lock to slide over to the right to try and type in my passcode, so I was wondering if there was a way to unlock my ipod from itunes and be able to take the passcode off so it is easier for me to get into my ipod. Or if there is an easier way to kind of reset the passcode part without resetting the whole ipod. Or if i should just buy a new ipod..

Restore, if iTunes will let you.  Everything except the password will be restored.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  Be forewarned that it takes a long time.  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.

    I am not sure if there is a way to get all explicit content on iTunes match.  It is really annoying when i want to hear a song and it is the clean version.  Any help?

  • Is there any way to get back to iOS 6.1.3? Far too many bugs with iOS 7

    Is there any way to go back to iOS 6.1.3 on iPhone 4? I'm sick of the bugs that have come with iOS 7. My phone is slow, it randomly calls numbers when it's in my pocket even though voice dialling has been disabled and the amount of crashes I've had have been ridiculous. It is so unstable. Is there anyway to change or is it time I considered jumping ship and going to Android?

    Nope... Many other post in here with same question... Sorry

  • Is there any way to upload songs from iPod to iTunes?

    My old computer broke,so all of my songs from my old iTunes are gone. Is there any way that I could upload the songs from my iPod, to my iTunes? Is there any type of software I'd have to download, that could do this?

    Hi Bubblez,
    There're lots of programs that can help you doing this. Transfer songs from yoou iPod and bought on iTunes Store is even easier, you just need to click "Transfer Purchases" on the left Source Panel.
    Just read this [thread|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6189621&#6189621] and pay attention to the Zevoneer's post.
    Hope this helps!

  • HT1414 I never synched my iPad to a computer, and I forgot my passcode and am now locked out.  I read that I need to do a restore, but will lose all my files.  Is there any way to get into my iPad but NOT lose my photos and files?

    I forget my passcode, and got locked out of my iPad.  I never synched, so my files aren't backed up.  I read that I need to restore, but will lose everything.  Is there any other way to not lose my photos and files on my computer?

    If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup).
    If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.
    You may have to force iPad/iPod into Recovery Mode

  • Is there any way to get a replacement iPod for one that was stolen?

    My iPod was stolen and sold to someone, is there anyway to get a replacement one from apple? I've had it for only about 7 or 8 months. If it's still under protection or whatever can it get replaced or anything? I tried looking it up but couldn't find anything. Anyone know?

    Your iPod comes with a 1 year warranty which covers manufacturers defects. Unless you bought some sort of insurance specifically for your iPod or it's covered under your renter's/homeowner's insurance, they only way you're going to get a new one is to buy one. Sorry.
    Best of luck.

  • Is there any way to get an older version of iTunes on my computer? I really dislike the newest version.

    My computer crashed last week. I had to replace it. It was necessary to reinstall iTunes. Of course, the most current version was downloaded. I really dislike it. I can no longer sort my music the way I want it.There is way too much emphasis album art work. It takes too much work to do the same thing older versions were able to do. Crazy as it sounds, I'm looking for a downgrade.
    Does anyone know how to download an older version? I hate to think I'm stuck with the current one. Your suggestions are appreciated.
    Thanks

    because my computer doesn't have the required Service Pack 2
    Then install it.
    It fixes many, MANY bugs and problems.

  • I've completely forgotten my iPod pass code. Is there a way of getting into my iPod again without loosing photos ?

    Please help

    Not if you can't make a backup

    Connect the iOS device to your computer and try to make a backup
    iOS: How to back up
    Then restore via iTunes. The iOS device will be erased. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    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.

  • Is there any way to get proof of purchase through Apple as I don't have receipt and paid cash for product, thanks

    If the developers of the app don't support 4.2.1 then the answer is no, unless you have an older version lying around.

  • Is there any way to get around the issue of AE7 and Lion OS not working together?

    I use AE7 for graduate studies and business and just can't understand why it won't work together.

    Why?  Because Adobe has other priorities, in simplest terms.  As with most commercial software producers, Adobe is looking to maximize their profits while their software developers are constrained to operate and optimize within their available development budgets, and also while delivering the corporate plans and schedules set by Adobe management.
    What to do for this case?  Migrate off of the Adobe software, migrate off of Mac OS X, deploy a virtual machine or Boot Camp (with Snow Leopard) and Adobe After Effects, or wait for Adobe to sort this out.  For sufficiently large-scale customers of Adobe, they can chat directly with Adobe management around whether a bounty will expedite the work.  (These are the usual answers, of course.)
