My iPod says it needs to be activated and then says Activation Error, also won't connect to iTunes. Help?
My iPod Touch says it needs to be activated. I go to activate it using wifi and it comes up with Activation Error: this device is not registered as part of the iPod Developer Program. I'm not a memeber of that. I'm not even an developer, I'm 14. My iPod has worked normally for months now. Then I go to connect it to iTunes to reset it (I have checked and iI have the latest version) The computer recognises the iPod is connected Tand it charges but nothing appears up on iunes. It worked fine yesterday
You say you have iOS 7. If you are a developer you have access to the private OS 7 developer's forum
iOS 7 Developer forum- Apple Developer
Otherwise you are on your own
PSA: iOS 7 If you're not a developer, don't install developer betas on your iPhone | TUAW - The Unofficial Apple Weblog

Reset the device:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
Then tap Settings > General > Software Update

I plug my ipod in, and it says it needs to be charged and never charges or shows up on my computer. But it works in the charger. I cannot sync it, and the computer doesn't detect it. It charges in the charger, but as soon as you unplug it, the ipod shuts off. Doesn't charge in the computer at all.

I have forgotten my password for iPod Touch 4G and it is now disabled. I tried connecting to iTunes but i haven't synced before and i need to enter the password before i can back it up so i can restore it. I don't want to lose pictures so please HELP!

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased. That is how it works
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
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 problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode. -
I have been having trouble connecting to my wifi on my ipad mini but my iPod is just fine......it will connect and then say "Unable to connect to network" I've tried resetting my ipad mini and turning off my router for 30 seconds and its not working.
What TC do you have? Model number direct from the base is a big help, it will be A1 followed by 3 numbers.. eg
A1409 Gen 4.. The new AC is A1470
How is it setup?
I need the whole network setup. what modem/router, how is the TC connected etc??
I also need to know what IP the ipod gets, so I can see what mode the TC or network router is working in. -
Got a new mac today, I created my iCloud account (and therfore my Apple ID?) I tried to set up my iTunes and download updates, and it says i need to review my account, then I had to edit my Apple ID details, but said my email address was invalid???
From the information that you have provided, it sounds like your Apple ID has been disabled. You can read this to see how you can troubleshoot that issue.

You can try signing out of your ID on the iPad and sign in with his ID and see if that works.
Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Then sign in with your husband's newly created ID. -

my iPod says to connect to iTunes, and then it crashes, error 3014, I've tried everything it says that might solve the error but nothing
Not knowing what everything is:
Error 3194, Error 17, or "This device isn't eligible for the requested build" - Apple Support
- 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.
