My ipod message is "ipod is disabled try again in 21,565,420 minutes" How do I fix this?

My tween's ipod message is "ipod is disabled try again in 21,565,420 minutes"  How do I fix this?
I"m far, far, far from a techy!  Thanks!

Connect the iPod to its syncing computer and restore via iTunes. If iTunes asks for the passcode and you can't enter the passcode or you dod not have the syncing computer, place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore the iPod. For recovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
This is covered in the manual and you can get that here:

    You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.
    You can restore from a backup if you have one from BEFORE you set the restrictions passcode.

    Hello,
    My sons old iPad 1 is rarely used, but, when i charged it up the message was;  "iPad is disabled try again in 22,824,852 minutes"  sorry but thats a bit of a wait! 
    I have gone through all the various reset methods but can't get around the disabled status??
    Can't see another way to reset it.
    Could it be for the bin.
    Only wanted to give the youngest daughter the iPad to take to school.
    Hope someone can help
    Thanks

    Is this how you do it?
    1. Turn off iPad. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, slide to turn off.
    2. Connect USB cable to computer
    3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
    5. Release the Home button
    6. Open iTune (make sure you have the newest version of iTune)
    7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
    8. Use iTune to restore iPad
    Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad

  • MY IPHONE 4 HAS COME UP WITH A MESSAGE, 'PHONE IS DISABLED, TRY AGAIN IN 23,562,928 MINS. hOW DO i UNLOCK THIS?

    Hi, my iphone screen went 'large and I was distracted for a minute or two. When I came back to it it had locked me out, however, it was impossible to return to a normal size print to log in. I finally reduced the print by reconnecting the battery. Now It says I the phone is disabled, probably due to all my failed attempts to log in with print enlarged. How do 're-able' my phone? Apple keep asking for me to send data from my phone which I cant do while its disabled.

    If the iPhone is in recovery mode, all data is already lost.
    Restore it.

  • All of a sudden my Firefox brower will not open correctly. It keeps telling me that it is trying to restore the previous session, but it doesnt' matter if I press the Restore button or the Close button to try again, it will not work. How can I fix this?

    After I hit the Close button and try to reopen it tells me that Firefox is currently already running and to either close it or restart my computer. Which I did, and it didn't do anything. Also, when I press the restore button, it will not restore, it just sits there. Please help, I hate Internet Explorer and I don't want to use it longer than I need to.

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    Delete the files sessionstore.js [2] and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    * Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).
