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 have never had an issue until recently that won't allow me to go onto the App Store or iTunes on my iPod touch 4th gen. It says the certificate for this server is invalid. Then it says, you might be connecting to a server that is pretending to be iTunes.apple.com which could put your confidential information at risk. How can I fix this so I can access iTunes and the App Store from my iPod again?
Reset the device:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings -

I had my iPod 5th generation in the wash for about 3-5 minutes, I took it out of my jacket and made the mistake of trying to turn it on. The first time it came on, then never came back on, its been in rice for 6 days, should I try anything else? Please help!

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

I have reset my ipod, reset the settings, forgot the network then connected again, everything!!!! No matter what i cant get wifi for anything that i need it for.
Please, Please, Please, Please can someone give me an answer that will work and if you do answer please tell me what an router is because everyones talking about it and i don't know what it is??!!!

Of course, you can always wait for 22,051,536 minutes! -
I mistakenly updated my iPod to iOS 6 and I wanted to restore it hoping it would downgrade back to iOS 5. Soo if I restore my iPod 4th genartion, will iOS 6 still be installed?
No, it would not revert to iOS 5. Restoring only means removing your personal settings, apps and other things. it would not downgrade the iOS version.
