Colton,
You'll need to connect your iPod to your iTunes library in Recovery Mode and restore it using the instructions in this Apple support document.

    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.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    How do I unlock an iPod touch from putting the password in too many times?

    Restore...
    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.

    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.

    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.

  • I have a droid incredible and my best friend has an ipod touch. She can send texts to me and I receive them just fine but when I send texts to her, she doesn't receive them. Any suggestions on what might be wrong?

    Suggestions appreciated :]

    She is using the message free app and I was just using the regular texting option on my phone. I set up an account on text plus free cuz I thought that might help but she still can't receive them. I can send messages to other people with ipod touches just fine. I just started having a problem with her receiving my texts.

  • TS1398 I am trying to connect an IPod Touch to a Verizon MiFi at home.  I have connected a computer, Nooks, and a tablet to this WiFi with a password and the IPod says it is unable to join.  Help!

    I am trying to connect an IPod Touch to my Verizon MiFi Hotspot.  It has a password.  I have set up a computer, a tablet, and 2 nooks to this MiFi but can't get the IPod to connect to any network that has a password. Please help!

    There are other things to try.
    Turn WiFi off on the iPad, restart it and then turn WiFi on again.
    Reset the network settings on the iPad. Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings, that makes you have to start all over again.

  • IPod touch battery charge icon won't light, USB doesn't connect to computer

    I have an iPod touch 64 GB 4th generation that suddenly has charging and USB issues.  The charging icon will not light no matter what I try.  I have tried several different chargers and docks that have proven to be working properly using another unit of the same model.  Strangely, the iPod does appear to charge, but the battery indicator is a bit random and possibly doesn't indicate the actual charge level.
    The iPod will also not connect to a computer using any of my iPod cables or computers.   I have tried putting it into DFU (didn't work - computer would not recognize iPod at all) mode and also did a full reset (wiping everything on it) and it is still acting the same.
    As of now, it works normally, except battery level indicator cannot be trusted, and it is impossible to know if it is charging or is charged, and there is no way to back it up, meaning any content generated on the iPod will have to be backed up in some other way besides connecting to a computer via USB.
    I know that the USB is working at least a little bit on the iPod, because the iPod will turn on when plugging it into the computer via USB, but nothing else will happen.
    I also cleaned the connector area with contact cleaner and a light brush.
    Any ideas on what else to try?

    Not Charge

  • I forgot my passcode, so now its disabled and it said i need to connect to itunes. But now i connected and its saying it can't open my ipod because it's locked. What do I do?

    I forgot my passcode to my ipod, so it said ineeded to connect it to iTunes because it's disabled. So, i connected to itunes and it said "Ipod cannot be used because it's being locked with a passcode. Unlock passcode and try again". Well i dont know my passcode and its disabled so i can't do anyhting. Now what do i do??

    Try connecting your iPod Touch to iTunes in recovery mode, allowing you to bypass the need to enter in the forgotten passcode.  See this article for instructions on getting your iPod into recovery mode.
