My iPod Touch has been locked out for 22 million minutes, and will not let me restore it?

I hadn't used my iPod in at least a few weeks prior to turning it on and charging it. After I did, it gave me a notification that said, "Disabled for 22, 311, 091 minutes." So I looked into it and decided to restore my iPod using iTunes on my computer. However, after attempting to restore it, it told me that I would have to enter a passcode on it. I do not have any access to other computers, and it won't connect to the Internet to use Find My iPhone unless I used voice command to access FaceTime -- which only works when it is unlocked. I know the password, but I really don't want to wait for a month or so to access it. How do I fix this?

Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

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.

  • My ipod touch is disabled for over 21 million minutes and it wont let me restore it or put it dfu mode. I even took it to the geek squad and they couldnt fix it. Please help me.

    I forgot my ipod touch's passcode and it died. After a couple months i pulled it back up and it was locked out for 21 million minutes and i looked it up on the internet and couldnt fix it with anything. I then took it to geek squad and they couldnt even fix it. Dfu mode wont work, cant connect it to itunes, cant restore or recover it. Please help me.

    Use Device Firmware Mode...
    1.     Turn off your ipod To do this, hold the home and sleep buttons for 10 seconds, ignore slide to power off message.
    2.     Release the power button when you see the apple logo (keep holding the home button)
    3.     Keep holding until you see a message.
    Now restore from a backup!
    Alternatively you can wait!

  • My 4th gen iPod touch has been plugged in for hours but it won't charge or turn on

    I have a 4th gen iPod touch. It has been plugged in for hours but it won't charge or turn on. I cannot restore it because it won't show up in iTunes. I have tried pressing and holding the home and/or the power key but that does not work as well. I have tried restarting Apple Mobile Support. I have updated my iTunes. I have tried EVERYTHING but it will not turn on at all. Any suggestions?

    Hi BCarolinaCopper,
    This sounds like you need to have a battery replacment this can be done if you have AppleCare or you will have to pay if unable to if the fault continues please
      visit a apple store genuis bar contact them via this link or https://www.apple.com/uk/retail/geniusbar/ or through the support on https://getsupport.apple.com/GetproductgroupList.action
    Good Luck

  • I have an ipod touch version 4.2.1, when accessing wii fi it will not let me open hot mail or you tube! a message appears saying cannot verify server identity - class three public primary cert authority

    It will not let me check train time table etc...but it will let me check resturants and garage websites. I have already set it. I am using a sky router and my internet everywhere else (on other PC's is fine) Please can you help.

    Try
    - - Reset the iPod. 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.
    - Reset networks settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - Power off and then back on the router.
    You will have to reenter all network passwords.
    - DId it work before with this network?
    - Does it work OK with other networks?
    - Do other devices have this problem?

  • Why is the "Show my windows and tabs from last time) option in Options- General is grayed out and will not let me restore previous sessions?

    After updating to Firefox 6, the option in the Options-> General section to "Show my windows and tabs form last time" is grayed out and will not allow me to set it. If I go to the Firefox homepage, the option does not appear, nor does it appear if I go under the History or Firefox tab.
    I tried to follow the directions on this website on the Session Restore page, but that seems out of date or just not helping.
    I even went to the about:config (about:session restore does not work) and there was nothing I saw that would work

    Firefox 6 seems to change your settings in Tools Options Privacy to "Never remember history". Once you change this to "Remember history" it will restore your previous session, as long as the setting in Tools Options General Startup is set to "Show my windows and tabls from last time"
    Bad idea Mozilla - installing 6 should pick up your settings from 5. This problem will confuse many users.

  • HT5622 I tried to create an Appl. ID unsuccessfuly. Now my ipod touch has been locked. What can I do to unlock it?

    I tried to create Apple ID via my ipod touch iOS 7 and finally my ipod has been stuck. How can I unlock it.

    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 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.

  • Trying to update to firefox 7.0 when press "run" it ask for administrator's password and will not let me go further. Please advise

    Download Firefox 7.0 (currently running out of date version)
    Click to open file
    Click Run to start running file
    Ask for Admin password
    Will not go further into installing
    Please advise.

    Once I downloaded the update, I was unable to right click "run as administrator" from the exe file. How I was finally able to update to the newest version was to:
    * click the start menu
    * click search
    * type in firefox
    * scroll down to Firefox setup 7.0.1.exe
    * right click and select 'run as administrator'
    The rest was 'easy as pie'. Hope this helps those that had the same trouble I did.

  • Lately it has been taking longer for Firefox to open and will lockup occasionally. Firefox has been my browser for years and I have never had this problem before. Its there anything I can do about this problem?

    Once this happens, it takes a while like it is catching up but eventually will clear the jam. It has locked up and or crashed and I manually have to reset my computer.

    This can happen if you've zoomed the page. That effects the screen dimensions as reported by JavaScript and seems to confuse Yahoo.
    Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems.
