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.                        
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.
If you previously synced to the computer then you may be able to recover use of the iPod without erasing the iPod by following the instructions here:
Disabled Recovery-must use syncing computer.

  • My daughter has not used her ipod touch for 16 months and has forgotten her passcode.  restore factory settings keeps failing due to a software update failure!

    my daughter has not used her ipod touch for 16 months and has forgotten her passcode.  restore factory settings keeps failing due to a software update failure!
    how can i get this ipod reset.  She now has an iphone so this is going to be used by someone else in the family and should be simple to do but itunes just keeps booting it out even though it recognises that it was previously connected to our itunes account as all of the children were on my account

    That has nothing to do with an update server. Do the following:

    how to manage and prevent database lock for database admin and development
    [email protected]

    Hi,
    can someone advise me some good book or even better a PDF or a white paper on the Web where it's explained well how to design and manage a relational database (that is normal forms, tuning, design, implemantation...)?
    I've been working on Oracle databases for a few years as pl sql programmer, but I'd like to read something describing well the relational database theory, because I've been asked to work as database designer.There are many books available in the market, please go through this link -- http://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers/books/549646/ref=pd_ts_b_nav
    I've been told to read "Fundamentals of Database Systems" by Ramez Elmasri, but I ask here for some more advices.I would strongly recommend reading this book, it was my best reference during my college study and even after starting my DBA career.
    Thanks,
    Hussein

  • My Apple ID is locked for 90 days and can't even purchase anything

    I had my personal Apple ID and I made an second Apple ID for my business. I logged into my iphone6 with that second business apple ID - this apple ID has no credit card information at all. then I tried to log into my personal previous apple ID - this account was locked for 90 days and I can't even re-download my previous purchases anymore. There was a NO NOTIFICATION before I made a second account about this situation and I really do not know what can I do next.

    Contact Apple Support

    BTW, Apple content is locked to the original Apple ID that purchased it and cannot be merged or transferred to another Apple ID

    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.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    I purchased an iPod shuffle for my niece and nephew last year for Christmas.  My nephew's has come up missing and I have strong reason to believe it was stolen.  Amazon cannot give me the serial number and I used my iTunes to put music on it initially.  Is there a place I can find the serial number on my iTunes and can it be tracked to different computers if someone else is using it?  My nephew no longer has the packaging.

    Type "ipod serial number" into the search bar at the top of this page by Support and read the article explaining how to find the serial number.

  • My messages screen on the iphone 4 is stuck kina like frozen and it wont rotate how can i fix this

    my messages screen on the iphone 4 is stuck kina like frozen and it wont rotate how can i fix this?

    Double tap home button quickly in new row of icons at bottom, tap and hold your Message Icon until the Red Minus Sign appears, tap it to delete from background memory. Then slide all the icons to the right, all the way, see if the Lock Icon is present, if locked, unlock it. See if Message is better, if not, Reset iPhone, hold both home and Power buttons until the iPhone restarts itself, ignore the "slide to power off" let the iPhone restart itself, usually takes about 10 seconds of holding both buttons.

  • My ipod was dropped in toilet and screen wont work

    my ipod was dropped in toilet and screen wont work.. is that something i could pay the service fee of 149 for or would it be not covered

    If the iPOd is throughly dry, then the water has permenently damage your iPod.  Yes, Apple will exchang your iPod for a refurbished one for theprice listed here:
    Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
    Since you did not specifiy your model iPod or capacity I do not know if $149 is corrt but that is the price for a 32 GB 4G iPod.

  • HT201412 my screen is locked and it wont change

    my screen is locked and it wont change or swtich off.

    What shows on the screen ?
    Depending upon what is on the screen, have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • I'm installing the new OS and iPhone is asking for a password to "restore" my iPhone, but I've never used a password for the phone and don't know what it is!

    I'm installing the new OS and iPhone is asking for a password to "restore" my iPhone, but I've never used a password for the phone and don't know what it is!  Can anyone help??

    You selected Encrypt iPhone Backups in iTunes.  Then you entered a password.
    It would be that specific password it is asking for.

  • If I use the same iCloud account for my ipad and iPhone, will changes I make on one change on the other as well?  I'm not sure of the advantage of using teh same iCloud for both devices.

    If I use the same iCloud account for my ipad and iPhone, will changes I make on one change on the other as well?  I'm not sure of the advantage of using teh same iCloud for both devices.

    No, it only mirrors changes to synced data.  This includes mail, contacts, calendars, reminders, safari bookmarks, notes, iWork documents and data, and photo stream photos (assuming you choose to sync all this data).  Changes to iTunes data such as music, apps, podcasts, etc., are not synced using iCloud.  In your example, if you delete an app from one device it will remain on the other until deleted there too.

  • The back button no longer works. I have disabled all add-ons, rebooted & reset the defaults for the browser and nothing has changed. This happens on all webpages.How do I get the back button to light up again?

    the back button no longer works. I have disabled all add-ons,rebooted & reset the defaults for the browser and nothing has changed. This happens on all webpages.How do I get the back button to light up again?

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration 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.
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    *Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
    Another possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
