Is there any way to restore without an ac adaptor?

My brother just gave me his old iPod and I wanted to get all of his music off, so I tried to restore it. What I diddnt know is that I needed an AC adaptor to do it, but I dont have one and I dont want to pay 30$ for one. Is there any way to complete the process without an ac adaptor?

When updating or restoring some iPods via a usb connection, it needs to be plugged into power via the charger to complete the process, and this is why you see that icon displayed. It's also why older iPods that required this step were supplied with a power adaptor as standard.
You may be able to complete the process via a car charger, or via a powered firewire port on the computer (with the required 6 pin cable of course) if you have access to either of those. Or maybe visit an Apple store if one is nearby.
Or you can try this.

Other than that, your iPod cannot be used until you complete this process.

    My daughter can't remember her passcode, and she has never synced it.  Is there any way to restore it without losing all the apps and music that were downloaded?

    If you can't remember the Passcode, you need to restore the device from the computer it was last synced with.

    Recently my computer was infected by a malware that deleted some DLLs and damaged Firefox, Opera and Google programs.
    The other two browsers I reinstalled without any problems. But Firefox is my primary browser and I'm afraid of losing all my information.

  • All of my contacts were deleted for no reason. Is there any way to restore them?

    I powered down my iPhone 4S because an app was bugging out. When I powered it back up, all of my contacts had been deleted. When I tried to see my contact list it told me there were "No Contacts" on this phone. In the "messages" app, each conversation is now paired with a phone-number and not each contact's name.
    I did not have my contacts sync'd to my iTunes, or iCloud, or any other storage system.
    Interestingly, when I do a "left-swipe search", and type in a contact's name e.g. Joe Smith, my phone is able to show me which text-message conversations were with Joe Smith, and other information about this contact. But that's the only memory my phone has of its lost contacts.
    Is there any way to restore lost contacts without external storage / syncing ??
    Thanks

    I think those contacts still in iphone database. So you can back up you iphone with itunes to get iphone database off your iphone. Then access the SQLite batabse.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    All data included with the backup is stored in a SQLite database format with the data within various folders not easily accessible.There are some 3rd party utilities that provide for extracting select data from an iPhone's backup and iphone database such as this one.

  • Is there any way to restore lost sessions closed accidently?

    I had many tabs open but accidently closed the firefox without saving it. When I opened next time, I lost all the tabs. Is there any way to restore those tabs.
    I saw a posting which refering to renaming a file called sessionstore.bak but I could not find that file. I need a permanenet solution to this. I don't want to save everything in the bookmark. Alternatively, is there any way to save multiple opened sessions which can be retrieved any time.

    Apparently new in FireFox 4, possibly due to customer demand, there is a selection to Restore Previous Session in the History menu. Unfortunately, I must use it way too OFTEN.

  • I forgot my password for my iphone 4 and it is now disabled. I am trying to restore it through itunes, but it say I have to put my passcode into my phone first. Is there a way to restore without using my passcode?

    The instructions are in that link. Just follow them VERY CAREFULLY. Especially the part about:
    Turn off your device and leave it off.
    Plug in your device's USB cable to a computer with iTunes. [but DON'T connect it to the iPhone yet]
    Hold down the Home button on your device as you connect the USB cable. Keep holding down the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
    When you see the iTunes screen, release the Home button. If you don't see this screen, try steps 1 through 3 again.
    When your device is connected, iTunes will open. You'll see a message saying that iTunes has detected an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch in recovery mode.
    Hold down the Home button on your device as you connect the USB cable. Keep holding down the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
