You need to restore using Recovery Mode. You can read about it here.

  • I broke the screen on my ipod touch 4th gen and im trying to do a backup on the data but it says i need to enter a passcode on my ipod but the screen dosent work so what can i do

    hey i broke the screen on my ipod touch 4th Gen and im trying to do a backup on the data but it says I need to enter a passcode on my ipod but the screen dosent work so what can I do.

    You can't backup the iPod t iTunes then. You will have to use an existing iTunes backup.
    If iCloud backup is turned on and the iPod is still working (not disabled), the iPod will automatically backup daily if an internet connection is available and the iPod is connected to a charging source.

    If you do not have the password, you can only do a restore-resetting the iPad to factory condition.

  • I can't open a file I just created a week ago and it says pages needs to be updated to open the file but its up to date

    I can't open a file I just created a week ago and it says pages needs to be updated to open the file but its up to date, what do I do?

    You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5.2.2 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Apple has removed over 110 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

    You can add the icon of the missing Pages on your Dock or open Pages from the Apple menu > Recent Items list.
    Or you can archive Pages 5 so that it doesn't automatically open.
    If you are unhappy about this review/rate Pages 5 in the App Store.

    I need the Nortn Toolbar and they say I need to go back to version 5.0. Where can I download verison 5.0

    if an extension worked in Firefox 4.0, it should be working in Firefox 5.0 as well.

    You can force 5.0 "compatibility" with the "[https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/ Compatibility Reporter]" extension, or with [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Extensions.checkCompatibility extensions.checkCompatibility] using about:addons.

    When reinstalling Firefox from a download, Firefox must be down once the installation starts. When the installation finishes, don't let the install start firefox for you. Instead end the install and start Firefox in your normal manner, thus preventing creating a new profile which does not have your bookmarks cookies, etc (but your old profile would still be around and would).

    No. You need a computer with iTunes and an internet connection.

  • I just got a 4th generation ipod touch from someone and there's a passcode. when i've tried to reset/restore it, itunes says i need to enter the passcode to continue. how do i unlock it?

    when i clicked "restore" on itunes it started updating the ipod touch, but halfway through it says i need to enter the passcode. i let the whole download finish and it still says i need to enter the passcode. what do i do?

    Are you sure you are following the instructions correctly?  Placing the iPod in recovery mode wil allow you to bypass the passcode lock.  If it's still asking you for the passcode, you aren't doing something correctly.  Keep trying.
    If no luck there, try DFU mode as well.

  • Why is my Apple Wireless Keyboard connected and paired, but I can't type anything?

    Hey,
    I’ve been using Apple Wireless Keyboard (A1314) for a year now. Yesterday it stopped working. I can see it’s connected and paired, but I can't type. I tried unparing and pairing it again and sometimes it helps - I have no idea why, but once in ten attempts it works. When it works, though, some strange happen - like my Mac increases it’s volume level like I hit F12 on the keyboard.
    When I go to Bluetooth menu battery level is hardly ever shown up. Also, when my keyboard is connected it takes a few seconds to open forementioned bluetooth menu.
    So, it there change I will be able to repair it? It’s not like it costs $5. :c

  • I have smashed my iphone 5 and i cannot back it up as i need to enter my passcode lock. is there anyway i can retrieve all my photos etc before i get a new one?

    my i phone 5 was smashed and i cannot back it up because i need to enter my passcode lock. is there a way i can retrieve all my info etc before i buy a new phone?

    If in the US or UK, most Apple stores will replace your screen/digitizer for US $149. If that's all your phone needs, you should be OK. Call your local Apple store to confirm.
    However, if you've synced while this passcode was enabled, you won't have to enter it when connecting to your iTunes. Otherwise, there is no way to do what you want, & your data will be unrecoverable.

  • Please help. I disabled my ipod a while ago and whenever I try to sync it into itunes to reset it, it says I need to enter the password to the ipod but I obviously cannot.

  • Just recently, my 'Numbers' and 'Pages' programs will not respond. I can click on it, but I can't type anything into the cells, or use the keyboard.

    I am unable to type into Pages and Numbers for some reason. I can open them up, but I can't right click. I am using a bluetooth keyboard, on a macbook pro 2007 / 2.4 ghz A1226. I have restarted the computer, repaired disck permissions, done a software update, searched endlessly through the options and preferences to try and see if I may have locked it. I don't have a num lock on my keyboard. Any suggestions?

    I wasn't quite sure what editing mode was, so I googled it and found a list of commands on another apple support page. http://www.apple.com/support/pages/shortcuts/
    I must have inadvertantly hit a 'command + enter' button and/or another combination of keys. What set the text edit back into motion, and allowed me to begin typing again was hitting 'command + delete.' (It may have been command + enter, but I started typing again after hitting command + delete.)
    I have tried to recreate the conditons again but have been unsuccessful. I was experiencing the same issue in keynote as well. When I accomplished the command  in pages and unlocked it using the instrutions above, all of iWork returned to normal functionality.
    Thank you very much for the help.

  • HT1212 my iphone is disabled and it says i need to connect to itunesbut it wont alow me to connect it

    how do i connect my iphone to apple?

    There's always a solution for a problem. So don't worry about what's going on withyour iOS device. Just follow these steps. I hope It will help you.
    Setp - 1.
    First of all, make sure that you're device have at least 50% battery. If not, charge your device properly to 50% or higher battery percentage then continue to step 2.
    Download a latest version of your iPhone firmware from here:
    http://www.idownloadblog.com/download/
    Step - 2.
    Connect your device to your computer and launch iTunes.
    Step - 3.
    Power off your device by pressing and holding power button.
    Step - 4
    Now get ready to put your device into recovery mode as following steps:
    Hold down the sleep/power button and home button together for exactly 10 seconds, then release the power button
    Continue to hold down the Home button until a message appears in iTunes telling you an iPhone in recover mode has been detected
    When you are in DFU mode your iPhone screen will be completely black
    Step - 5
    Simply click 'OK' button on that message and click 'iPhone' on top-right corner of your iTunes window.
    Step - 6
    Now you can see 'Restore' button there. Just press and hold your computer's 'Shift' key and click the 'Restore" button and load your latest iOS firmware file.
    Wait until the setup will finish. When the setup will complete, you're done.

  • HT204370 I just bought GOT season 1, and it says i need the quicktime player, which I then installed, but it still isn't working, what should I do?

    I've already tried uninstalling and then installing the quick time again, but it still isn't working. I have an ASUS laptop it that helps.

    I think this is a known problem with Lion and some installs of Logic, I've seen it mentioned before.
    Contact Apple.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
     Cheers, Tom
