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.

To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up     
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.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store      
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • How can I get my ipod nano (6th gen) to stop making a static-y noise when I try to listen to my music? It has been doing this for a week and the music is faint while the static is louder than it.

    It has been doing this for a week and the music is faint while the static is louder than it. I try plugging it in to my iTunes and when I un-plug it, it still makes the loud static noise. I have also tried tapping my knuckle on the back of my ipod nano. This has not damaged it at all nor caused this to my ipod. There is no water damage to the ipod. Only a few scratches from a couple drops. The drops have been on concrete but not at a very high distance. How to I stop this? Do I need to replace my ipod instead?

    Have you tried a different pair of earbuds/headphones to rule out a pair of damaged/faulty ones?  You might also want to make sure the headphones are securely and firmly seated in Nano's headphone jack.  Lastly, check the headphone jack for any signs of debris or damage.  You may need to have the headphone jack replaced either by Apple or a third party repair company.
    I assume this static is present on any track you listen to versus only particular ones?

  • HT203167 I cannot sync my iPad or iPhone to iTunes on my Windows 8 PC, even though I have been doing this successfully for years. I have been through all the troubleshooting steps I can find in iTunes, to no avail. Help please?

    I cannot sync my iPad or iPhone to iTunes on my Windows 8 PC, even though I have been doing this successfully for years. I have been through all the troubleshooting steps I can find in iTunes, to no avail. Help please?

    I seem to be having the same problem on my Windows 8 laptop... I am able to update my iPod Nano through iTunes but my iPhone is not recognized as a device in iTunes. Have been able to update my iPad until recently. Is this a bug fix that Apple can help with? I'd rather not uninstall all my Apple programs if I can avoid it...

  • My ipod keeps "turning on" the apple will show up, fade away, and then repeat. It has been doing this for hours.

    my ipod wont turn on. the white apple with the bite appears, stays for about 10 to 15 seconds like it normally does for booting up, then fades away and the screen goes black. 5 seconds later it repeats. it has been doing this for hours now. I tried the home and power button thing and the screen went black. then i hit the power button and it continued to do the same thing. i tried plugging it in to my wall, my charger recognised that it was charging. i tried plugging it into my computer and it made a sound like something was plugged in. but nothing came up.

    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 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.

    The iPad is telling you to connect your iPad to iTunes on your computer so do it. You may have to restore the device.

  • PLEASE HELP. I have Windows 7 on my laptop and I am using firefox 11. Firefox has been doing good since I downloaded it but not as of today.

    Firefox is running very slow and keep's saying not responding for 3 seconds and then does it again repeatedly. Please even when I type words and letters from firefox it types very slow and what I am typing has to catch up with the last thing I typed. It has been doing good ever since I downloaded it but now it sucks bad, not very happy with firefox now. I have windows 7 on my laptop and I have firefox 11....PLEASE HELP Thank you

    Another standard diagnostic step is to try Firefox's Safe Mode to see whether it is caused by a custom setting or add-on.
    First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
    Next, restart Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode Safe Mode] using
    Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    In the Safe Mode dialog, do not check any boxes, just click "Continue in Safe Mode."
    Does Firefox behave any better?

  • HT1212 my ipod say that it is disabled and to connect to itunes not to try again in 1 minute and it  has been doing this for almost 24 hours. what do i do?

  • My ipod will not save music on it after it has been disconnected...how can i fix this?

    My iPod classic does not save music on it. It saved music on it twice and when I connected it to add more music it would no longer save music on it. It keeps resetting itself. How can I fix this?

    Apple will exchange the iPod for $79

    Well thank you for your honesty.  Apple requires you have to have a Mac to develop iPhone apps, ergo my foray into OS-Xland. No way around it that one except for running OSX in a VM, which would have probably saved me some quid, true enough.
    BUT for those interested parties: VirtualBox has a startup script in /Library/StartupItems/VirtualBox that will prevent OSX from fully booting on the initial (and required) rEFIt boot cycle. Once I temporarily moved that out of the StartupItems rEFIt went in as expected.
    FYI, the openSUSE desktop running native is a little peppier than OSX native which was a nice surprise.  Now if the Mac just had more open source software we would have a deal. (:

  • Why can't OSX track multiple copied clipboard items? Windows has been doing this for years. It's pretty much infuriating.

    For the umpteenth time, I've cut some huge chunk of text out of a dialogue box only to lose it following a momentary lapse in concentration. With all the 'it just works' propaganda I've heard and repeated over the years, I'm dumbfounded that Apple engineers have not caught up yet. Windows has had this built in functionality forever. And please don't tell me 'there's a third party app'. This is basic. C'mon Apple, earn my business.

    The 'clipboard manager' would need be aware of which program was currently active and either hide or gray out clippings which could not be pasted into the selected document/field/project/track.
    It's not up to the OS, or the clipboard manager to know what data types can be pasted into any given destination - the application does that.
    In actual fact, the current clipboard implementation already supports storing multiple data sets - for example, if you copy text from a word processor, the chances are it's copied in multiple formats - there may be a rich-text version that includes font and style data, as well as a plain-text version with just the raw text. It's up to the receiving application as to which data is retrieved when you paste.
    (yes, I realize this is a slightly different issue from multiple clipboards, but it does pertain to storing multiple objects on the clipboard).
    I use a few built in multi-key shortcuts on a regular basis, the first one that comes to mind being ⌘⇧Z (redo).
    Ahh, but that's not the same thing - or at least not what we're talking about here. That's just a modifier (shift) applied to the ⌘Z.
    In this case what State and I are referring to is one technique implemented by at least one third-party app. Let's say your clipboard manager supports 10 clipboards - called Clipboard 0 through 9. To copy something to a specific clipboard You press the ⌘ key and C (to copy), and while still holding the ⌘ key you press the number of the clipboard you want to copy to - so to copy to clipboard 5 you ⌘-C-5.
    Similarly to retrieve something from a specific clipboard, you press ⌘ plus V, then the number of the clipboard you want.
    The problem with this approach (and I've used such a beast in the past) is that it really gets in the way of your workflow, because the copy (or paste) isn't effected until you let go of the command key. So now you can't use ⌘-C followed by ⌘-Tab to switch applications - you have to ⌘-C, let go of both keys and then ⌘-Tab. Sounds minor, I know, but try it sometimes - you'll be astounded how often you hold that command key between multiple commands. Implementing a system-wide 'feature' that requires you to release the command key to effect the command is a real distraction.
    Just watch yourself use command keys in daily life - see how you learn and expect an immediate response when you press the relevant letter/number key. Imagine what it's like if that action waited until you let go of the command key.
    Ultimately I think multiple clipboards is something that a subset of users could benefit from on a regular basis (I use one myself), but is a user-specific/custom requirement and therefore a task best served by third-party apps.

  • My computer has been rebuilt due to a virus and I have lost all the music I have bought.  How can I get it back please.

    Due to a virus on my computer I have had to have it re built and now all my music I have bought is gone.  How can I get it back again please.

    If for some reason you have failed to do the basics and backup your computer, then you will need to redownload ( if this is available in your country):

    Or you could transfer from an ipod:  File>Transfer Purchases

  • I bought my Ipod touch 4th generation recently and everything was working well. However, it has been 2 weeks since my FaceTime and Imessage aren't working anymore.

    Right after I put on my username and password, it says "veryfing" and then it goes back to the log in page. I don't know what's going on at all. My apple ID is ok, since I can purchase apps and other stuff on Itunes. I've used Imessage and FaceTime before, it happened suddenly. Does anyone ever had this problem? Than you.

  • My 3GS will not let me in to iTunes or App store. It just says "Cannot connect to ITunes". This is not a password issue. Recenly updated. Tried resetting. (Been doing this since before last update).

    My 3GS will not let me login to iTunes or App store. It says "cannot connect to iTunes store".

    In iTunes, do Store->View my AppleID
    Click "Deuthorize ALL"
    Then, on any computers you still have, do Store->Authorize this computer.  If there are less than 5, you will have no problem.
    You can only do "deauthorize all" once a year, so in the future, if you ever throw a computer away, remember do to "Store->Deauthorize this computer" first.
