My ipod says it's disabled. How do we fix that?

When we go to install an app, it says it's disabled. Why? How can we fix it?

If you have forgotten your password for the lock screen, do this:
Connect in recovery mode and restore, you'll get the option to reset the passcode during this process:
iOS: Unable to update or restore and iPhone and iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.

    We usually advice first to Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache in case of such problem and then do a check for extensions to see if any are causing the problem.
    * Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
    * Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
    * Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

    Other possible causes can be zooming a page or having increased the minimum font size.

    For me it worked when I switched the virus protection off while doing the installation. After you run the installation you then switch the virus protection back on.
    Hope it works for you too!

  • TS2446 I answered security questions wrong which caused or to be disabled, how do I fix that?

    I made my apple ID on my computer a long time ago but I just got a new iPhone 5 and I went to by a song and it told me to answer some security questions. I do not remember making these questions but I put in the answers and I said they were wrong. I tried many times and eventually it disabled my apple ID. How do I fix it?

    You should contact AppleCare if you don't remember the answers. Depending on a few factors, they might be able to reset those security questions so you can choose new ones and continue using your Apple ID like you were used to.
    That's really the only solution if you're sure you don't remember any of the answers.
    Good luck
