My ipod is crazy. it needs to be locked up.
it keeps going from one song to the next, really fast, not playing any music at all just skipping ahead to tHe next song then the next and so on. AHHHHHHHHHRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
Try restoring the iPod to factory settings.
Put the iPod into disk mode first.
Putting iPod into disk mode.
Restoring erases the iPod hard drive, so you will need to reload your songs from iTunes.

I need to deauthorize a stolen ipod. Will I need to deauthorize everything then re-establish the remaining devices again?
Why would they care??
Maybe to stop somebody from downloading a movie with a junk account, and distributing it on the net with the authorization information so it could be passed though thousands of computers in a week or two?
And more to the point, why don’t they just give you a list of the computers and let me deauthorize the specific ones you need.
Let's say I saw you log into your account, or just managed to hack your information somehow. I could have all kinds of fun driving you crazy by deauthorizing your computer remotely, then you'd authorize it, and I'd deauthorize it again... hence you can only deuthorize computers individually to which you have physical access.
Note that it is in Apple's interest to make it as easy as possible for you to spend money buying things from them. Likely it is the media companies who have told Apple that if they want to be able to sell their movies they have to use certain restrictions. -

I've have done all of the tips Apple has suggested and have tried many times to restore it but it still won't work. IThe first time it went through the whole process and it seemed like it worked but it still showed the Screen that has a iPod power cord that has an arrow pointing to the iTunes thumbnail. And now i thought well maybe it is restored i just need to sync it to Itunes but no my computer said that i encountered a problem my iPod and that i need to restore it so I tried. And at the end of the first step, the Verifying Software step, it said that the device "iPod" could not be found, so Itried it again and again but it still came up with the same results so I'm screwed so if you can could you please help me i really need after a disabled iPod for about 2 to 3 months now. So if you could please help i would appreciate it alot. THANK YOU.
- Reboot the computer, try another USB port and try anohter cable.
- Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corroded contacts, cracked or broken plastic.
- Try placing the iPod in DFU mode and then restore.

I just bought my 10 year old autistic daughter an IPOD touch that she needs to take to school with just the music (no apps) on it but she also also has an IPAD mini for home that is fullly loaded with apps. The last time I tried to connect 2 devices to Itunes I ended up loosing my own music library so I am a bit hesitant to start setting up this new IPOD touch with outsome help. Anyone have any ideas on how I set up Itunes to make this work and not loose her IPAD apps and media?
Open itunes, connect ipad, select what you want, sync.

Can't access iPod Classic 160GB. NEED a backup.
Hi, I've got a 6th gen. 160GB iPod Classic and I need a backup of the songs I've got in it.
Basically what is happening is the same thing that happened when I installed Mavericks and tried to use my WD hard disk: I wasn't able to mount it nor repair it so, Disk Utility, told me to back up everything, erase and then restore the whole thing. (in this process I lost part of my music library, that's why I'm here)
The problem lies in the fact that once, with my WD hard disk, I just clicked "ok" on the message that told me to follow those steps and the hard disk appeared on the desktop, thus allowing me to back up almost all I needed to but not with the iPod. I click ok and nothing happens.
I tried rebooting it, I tried to put it in Disk Mode and I tried to connect it to other computers; always the same outcome.
I am not searching for a permanent solution since in a week or less I'll have a new one (this one's headphone jack is ****** up and Apple will replace the whole device); all I want is to be able to access it as an external disk and recover what I have inside.
Thanks a lot.
P.S. I was using DeTune and everything was working fine, I disconnected the iPod to use it while running, got back, connected it again and now it doesn't work.Everything that was on your classic should also have been in your library, and that backed up to another drive. If you manually managed the device, and it was the only location holding your media, and it has become corrupted, there really isn't much hope. See Corrupt iPod classic. There may be a slim chance to recover media stored on it via disc mode if is isn't stored elsewhere, but if it won't mount, or has been reformatted, then the moment has probably passed.

Ipod touch 4th gen needed a new screen and sleep/wake switch. So, I replace them. I was able to get to settings and do "erase all content and settings". I am not able to totally shut this device off as it keeps restarting after a few seconds. I have used itunes to restore and also recover. Device will actually shut off and stay shut off if I leave it connected to the computer. The moment I unplug (3 seconds) the apple logo appears, it boots, unlock screen appears, I can unlock and operate normally, unplugged or not. Just cant get it to completely shut down unplugged. Any thoughts?
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- 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 on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem. Maybe you installed a bad component or damaged something during the repair/replacement.
Apple will not help since you worked on the iPod yourself. -
ipod was disabelled and needed connecting to itunes, with countless attempts nothing happend therefore performed as reset, now instead of turning on and off, ipod displays connect to itunes but is not recognised by computer nor will it connect to itunes, try enabelling for restore but only connec to itunes is shown consistently
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

My Airport wireless is working for my two MacBook Pros and my daughter's iPod, but our iPad, Iphone and other iPod all say they need to set up an Airport Base Station but do not have the proper software. I'm not sure what to do to remedy this situation.
This might sound like a silly question, but are you sure the iOS devices (iPhone, iPad, iPod touch etc.) are still trying to connect to the same network from your own Airport router, as the MacBook Pros are? If you tap Settings on them, is the network name next to where it says Wi-Fi, the right one?
I've got a weird feeling that either in the past couple of days, a neighbour got an Airport device and hasn't set it up yet (causing your iOS devices to try to help), or that perhaps there's an issue with your Airport router and they're noticing it and trying to help out, while for whatever reason, Airport Utility isn't opening itself on the MacBook Pros like it normally should if there's a problem.
If you open Airport Utility on one of the MacBook Pros, does it report any problems with your Airport device, and can you view/edit the settings on it? -
ITunes says my iPod is corrupted and needs to be restored..
Ok, when I started up my computer today and opened iTunes to listen to my songs, it gives me an error message that my iPod is corrupted and needs to be restored before I can use it again. I've tried using different programs to back up my songs on my iPod to my computer but it's not working because my computer is also saying that disk J: (the usb port my iPod uses) needs to be reformatted, so I can't do anything with it out of iTunes..
What it's looking like is that I'm going to lose ALL the songs on my iPod (around $600 worth) and I'm not going to get anything back..
So what do I do to fix this problem without losing all of the songs I've bought?Hello CoulntThinkOfAUser,
If you purchased the songs from the itunes store you wouldn't really loose anything. This is how to recover all of your previous purchases.
How to download past purchases.
Hope this helps.
