ITouch says connect to iTunes, itunes will not accept it due to password.
My iPod touch has a screen with a USB cable pointing twards the iTunes logo, and I assume that means to connect it to iTunes. When I hook my iPod up to my computer, however, iTunes gives me a message saying "iTunes cannot access this device because it has a passcode lock on it." The problem is, however, that I cannot type the password in on my iPod, because it will not move from the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
Bump. Help needed PLEASE.

when starting up after a erase/reinstall of Mac OS X 10.6 it will not accept any of my passwords/names, I had just entered my info and clicked on "continue", the cube began to turn and froze, a translucent screen came over the whole window and request that I restart the computer, after doing so, I got the start up sound and a message saying that OS X was starting up and then the sign in window, but when I entered my info it kept shaking/rejecting it, only thing I can think is that could I have possibly entered my password wrong twice, don't know, I'm still scratching my head.
Do it again, I'm afraid. Be sure you set up the initial admin account with a proper password you can remember - all lowercase letters and numbers. No special characters or spaces except for the "_" underline character.
Clean Install of Snow Leopard
Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
the drive and everything on it.
1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
with your computer. Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
After the chime press and hold down the "C" key. Release the key when you see
a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
size.) Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window. Set the number of
partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
(Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed
with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
Assistant. Be sure you configure your initial admin account with the exact same
username and password that you used on your old drive. After you finish Setup
Assistant will complete the installation after which you will be running a fresh
install of OS X. You can now begin the update process by opening Software
Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your installation current.

Itunes will not accept my apple id password in the store.
when I enter the store in itunes 11.0.1, a message popps up telling me to enter my password to enable automatic downloads. When I enter the correct password, the same message pops back up instantly. If I enter the wrong password, it tells me so in red. I can not do anything with the store, because it will not accept my account. I can purchase on other devices with the same account and password with no problem.
You may need to do a credit card "update" in your account. Apparently "it" needed a re-verify because I had accessed my apple account from another computer. Did so and it worked. Apple is opaque in many ways and it was totally unhelpful as it just kept rejecting my good password with no explanation.

Hi,
As I have said in the title, I was supposed to do a restore on my iPad for work. I backed up the device and then I restored it to factory settings as I was instructed. Now that all of that is complete, I tried to restore it from the back up point I created and it will not recognize my Apple ID password. I really hope that I won't lose all of my data, but I don't know what else to do. I have tried entering my password numerous times. I really hope that someone can help me.Restoring an iPad from an iTunes-generated backup should not require an Apple ID password.
Did you encrypt the iPad backup? If so, then trying to restore will require entering the encryption password. -

I recently restored my iphone. When attempting to set it back up it will not accept my password. Yet when i log into the apple store i have no problem logging in using the same apple id and password. How do i get the iphone to recognize my apple id and password?
Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Sigh Out of the Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
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. Release the Buttons.

My iPad will not accept my ID and Password
I just purchased a second hand iPad, I tried to activate it but it will not accept my password. the exact error is " Incorrect Apple ID [email protected] cannot be used to unlock this iPad"
I have changed passwords but no luck.
Any help would be appreciated
CarmazoIf you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for a previous owners Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. You must contact the previous owner to get permission to use the device. If you cannot contact the previous owner return the device to where you bought it and get a refund. You will never be able to activate the device and no one can help you do it.

I have an Iphone 4S and It won't let me watch videos on my safari, which I do everyday. It says that I am connectef to a tv, yet I have not connected it to a tv during the entire time i've owned this product. I have not connected it to anything bluetooth either. It plays the sound through the device, but it will not play the video at all. the update is IOS 6.1.3
Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall.
- Next try the manual install method of:
iDevice Troubleshooting 101 :: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch
Place the iPod in recovery mode after the firmware download is complete and then restore using the instructions in the article. Sometimes recovery mode timeouts and returns to disabled before the firmware download is complete.
- Then try on another computer -
MacBook Pro Retina says connected to ethernet, but will not connect
I have a MacBook Pro 13" Retina. It will not connect to my office's network no matter what I do. I've tried different cables, different ports, toggling wifi on and off, inspecting the ports to see if they will recognize other thunderbolt connections and they will. I was able to connect to a Thunderbolt monitor without any issues. It may be the adapter, but there are all kinds of funky-ness going on when I try to assess the network. The thunderbolt heading under System Information claims nothing is connected - even when communicating with the Thunderbolt display. The ethernet connection claims to be working, but will not connect to the internet. It also can't seem to find our router. I've tried to manually enter all the information in using the assistant, but it still can't find it. This is especially frustrating since this computer is under a year old. I can't take it to the Genius Bar because it is owned by my company and contains proprietary info. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hello NotAppleSavy,
Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like the computer wont connect to networks. I see you have used network diagnostic. I would recommend that you read this article, there are a lot of other things you can do in this article that may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.

Login screen will not accept special characters in password
So, I have a domain account that has a password that contains the character created by pressing ctrl and Backspace key. I have found that if you attempt to type that character at the windows login screen, it will not recognize that. If you remote desktop
to the pc from any version of windows, it will allow you to type in that character and logs in fine. If you went to change a local users password by using the Computer management mmc, it will allow you to enter that character.
How is it possible that this was overlooked, and is there a likelihood of it being fixed?
I'd like to point out that this occurs in windows 8.1 also. I have a large base of bilingual users that have Spanish and other characters in their passwords that have worked up until now.Hi,
If i understand you correctly, you could not type the special character at the windows login screen in windows 8.1, but remote desktop could. Am i right?
According to my test, the same result.
So i think you could remote to the pc and change the password:
