My iPod is lock and I want to erase it what will happen if I erase it?

Hello

If you erase it it will be erased.
If you do not know the screen-lock pascode
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
                     If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    To restore from backup see:

    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.

    Try the standard fixes:
    - Reset. Nothing will be lost.
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod

  • I cracked my iPod touch screen and I want to know if Apple will fix the screen or just swap my ipod for a different one?

    I cracked my iPod screen today, and I want to get it fixed, but I don't know if the Apple store will do it for free. I've only had it for 6 months and I'm worried that it's going to cost me more money to fix it then if I got a new iPod. It's an iPod touch 4th generation 16GB. If anyone knows the approximate price to fix it, i'd appreciate it!

    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $99. They do not fix yours.

  • Rescue and Recovery with only one partition, what will happen? Thanks!

    Hello, everyone! This is my question: If I do a clean installing of Windows 7 with only one partition(the C and I install the Rescue and Recovery tool, when I make a backup of the system by using the Rescue and Recovery then the backup file will be stored in the partition C:. So when I restore the system with the backup file later, if I can succeed and what will happen? Thanks.
    Solved!

    Backups and restores will still work.  The risk is if something happens to your hard drive, then you would lose the backups as well.  For this reason it's a much better idea to store your backups somewhere else, such as USB hard drive or network.

  • When trying to sync my phone with my computer it's telling me to "restore". Why and what will happen if I do?

    When trying to sync my iphone 4s to my computer it say it doesn't read it anylonger and I need to restore. What will happen if I do that? Will I lose my apps and need to replace all my music?

    It will restore you phone as a new device.   If you have a backup of your phone you can restore to that.
    YOur apps and music you can always sync back using iTunes.

    You may have to do this several times.
    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘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

  • My  iPod touch screen says it is disabled.  Connect to iTunes.  When I connect the device to the computer a window pops up and said that the iPod is locked and I need to enter the passcode on the iPod..... I can't get it to do anything.  Any ideas?

    When you connect the iPod to your computer and go to the Music tab to select which music you want to sync, iTunes will pop up a dialogue box that if you sync your music it will replace the music that is already on the iPod.
    Since that sounds like what you want to do, just click ok and then sync.
