My ipod is disabled, what do i do?  i cant remember my password

I changed my pass word and cant remember what it is. now my ipod is disabled.  how do i get it back without eliminating all of my things

You'll need to connect it to the iTunes library you normally sync it with and restore it.  If iTunes asks you for this passcode before it will let you proceed, connect the iPod to iTunes in recovery mode instead using the instructions in this Apple support document.

    Connect to iTunes.  Select the iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Directions there for a Restore.
    A Restore is a little disconcerting because you are warned that all data (apps, music,movies, etc.) will be erased.  However, as it finishes, you are asked if you wish the data in iTunes to be written to the iPod.

    Your home network must have a wireless router somewhere in the house. All of your wireless devices use the same router password to connect to the network. That's where the password is stored and used. Log into your wireless network router and look under the wireless menu section. You should find your password there. If you have other wireless devices connected to your network maybe one of those will display the password. If your router is also password protected and you can't remember that either then your only solution is to reset the router to factory defaults and start over to rebuild your network. With security becoming more and more important these days most passwords are encrypted and not displayed in the open on any devices, including routers. It's extremely important that you remember or have the password written down somewhere and locked away for just such an occasion. Good luck.

  • Hi, I forgot my email and password and my iphone need to activate i dont know what to do and i cant remember the email address or the password please help me I dont wanna lose my phone :(

    hi, I forgot my email and password and my iPhone need to activate i don't know what to do and i cant remember the email address or the password please help me I don't wanna lose my phone.

    IF you forget your email and password and you are stuck in the activation process, it usually gives you a clue on what is your email like w********[email protected] If you really own the phone, you already have a clue on what is that email add. Then go to appleid.apple.com, click on manage my device, enter what you think is your email addy (no harm in trying that it wont lock) then click on i forget password. This will give you an option to either sent the password to an alternate email. If you have several, then sad to say you have to open it one by one and check including your spam mails. Another option is to answer some security questions you made while creating an apple id. Your last option is to call apple support. If you know the email add and you can prove ownership, they can reset the password for you

    Hey grandkids7k,
    Thanks for the question. The following resource provides troubleshooting information if you have forgotten your passcode:
    iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
    If you have never synced your device with iTunes, or you do not have access to a computer
    If you see one of following alerts, you need to erase the device:
    "iTunes could not connect to the [device] because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the [device] before it can be used with iTunes."
    "You haven't chosen to have [device] trust this computer"
    If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
    Alternatively, place the device in recovery mode and restore it to erase the device:
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to shut down.
    3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
    5. iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then restore the device.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.
