My password will not allow me into my ipod touch

Hi all,
I have my ipod touch only a short while, I have availed of the password facility and it worked well until just recently when I entered my password and didnt get into my ipod. the music seems to be still playing on random and it wont stop. I dont know how to get in to stop it playing.
i am very annoyed now and getting increasingly dissatisfied with the product as i need to use it for my studies.
please someone help!

Hello, Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Is it not excepting your password? is the keyboard not typing out the password you are providing?
If you are 100% sure about the password you may wish to try the options below.
iPod touch and iPhone: Turning on/off and resetting

Backing Up, updating, and restoring your iPhone and iPod touch software

Please keep in mind that if you restore from backup. And you are still not able to get in with your password. You will need to restore as new so this removes the password. Unless you have an iTunes iPod Touch backup that was backed up before you setup pass code lock.

  • My MacBook Air keeps asking me for my yahoo password; which when correctly entered will not allow me into the account. iPad and iPhone both working on the same password/account.

    my MacBook Air keeps asking me for my YAHOO password; which when correctly entered will not allow me into the account. iPad and iPhone both working on the same password.

    I've got automatic downloads turned off and I tried signing out and in via the settings and still keeps asking me for an apple id.
    It doesn't do it continuously, it'll just pop up randomly ... if the phone is just sitting there it may ask for my apple id and regardless of whether I press cancel or enter my password nothing happens .. it may be another 2mins, 5mins, 15mins but eventually it'll just randomly pop up and ask me again. It does accept my password though because I tried entering an incorrect password to see what happens and it gives me the error saying it's incorrect, so when I enter the correct one in the box disappears and it accepts it as I say, but only for so long before it pops up again.

  • Itunes will not sync music to my ipod touch or iphone 3g. Passes all diagonostic tests. copies apps but not music

    itunes will not sync music to my ipod touch or iphone 3g. Passes all diagonostic tests. copies apps but not music. Any Ideas?

    just bought iphone 4 today from verizon and had the same problem. this is my 1st smartphone ever. apps all synced when i plugged it in to my computer except the music. this is what i did and it worked. plugged in phone to computer. then under the devices tab i clicked on the music tab. if you look to the bottom right of the itunes page there will be two tabs you can click on. one says settings and the other one says autofill. i clicked on the autofill and then it just started syncing. that was it. i'm not a tech guy by any means. just kinda of got lucky. i hope this helps you out. good luck!

  • Will not allow me to eject ipod

    when i go to eject the ipod from itunes it says "the iPod cannot be ejected because it contains files that are in use by another application" what do i have to do?

    If you are using Windows XP, there might be a program open thats reading files off of the iPod.
    Usually its nonsense, and no program is actually reading anything off the ipod except for iTunes. Anytime you see this screen (which is pretty annoying, but atleast theres a way), do this:
    1. Close all applications (Word, Internet Explorer, etc) EXCEPT iTunes
    2. CTRLALTDEL. A task manager should pop up (if not, click Task Manager)
    3. Click on a tab that says Processes
    4. Find a process named "explorer.exe" and choose to end the process
    *Explorer.exe is sort of like your Windows itself, and by ending the process you basically make everything disappear except your desktop wallpaper (no icons, folders, start menu). This will close any "connection" between the iPod and Windows
    5. In the Task Manager, click File, and then New Task
    6. Type in "Explorer.exe" without the quotes
    7. Let Windows load up the desktop and start menu (like your system would as if it were starting up)
    8. Open up iTunes again, and eject.
    This should work.

  • Applications on two computers and not allowed to sync my ipod touch ?

    Hi all,
    I have latest versions of itunes and ipod software (just updated now). This is the first time I use my laptop (PC, windows XP)(I copied all my itunes library and applications on this laptop from my desktop PC) to sync my ipod touch. I got a few new podcasts and applications here. During the sync, no problems for the podcasts it seems, but for the applications unexpectedly it tried to remove some applications from my ipod (but these were on my library) and tried to install the new ones. But couldn't do most of these because it says this computer is not allowed (however I end up with a few applications removed from the ipod touch).... This is a pain since I downloaded and even bought some applications in this laptop. So do I have to transfer all my applications to my desktop computer?
    thanks for the help.

    I had the same problem. Just got my first I-Pod Touch today, and was downloading apps via I-Tunes when I found the problem. In I-Tunes, go to the STORE tab, and click on "Authorize Computer..." This will bring up the sign on screen for your password. After you log on, you will then be able to sync your apps. I don't understand why I-Tunes continually needs your password, but it does. Hope this works.

  • What new features in 3.0 will not be available to the iPod Touch?

    I fully expect that I will not have the capability to use voice control (not sure why, but what is the hardware limitation that does not allow this to work???) for my music, games that require > 128 MB of space to run, and to even think of video or camera... of course! However, is the processor completely different and will the iPod Touch be able to step up its processing speed to the 600 Mhz speed that it is more than capable of doing but has been downgraded to for battery sake? Will I be able to play the new games or will they be a distant wish for me? Also, what are the hardware enhancements in the new iPhone that the iPod Touch does not have?

    It is actually not catching up. The speed of the iPod Touch 2G is 512 MHz, but the speed of the iPhone 3GS is 600 MHz. This is very good boost. On top of this, the graphics chips is a much more robust chip. The 3GS is not catching up, but surpassing significantly the speed of the iPod Touch 2G. Of course, the next the iPod Touch will probably be 600 MHz or more and will of course, have the new graphics chip. I did read that they are working on a dual core ARM processor. That would be a nice step up. I think the OS X could handle that quite nicely. Needless to say, I am sure Apple will always have something even better and bigger and stronger for their next release.

  • Itunes will not accept playlist from old ipod touch

    Recently purchased a new Ipod touch. Gave my old one to a friend and when they tried to sync it with their computer. An error message came up "shared playlist not allowed. Gave an option of erase and sync. Not sure what to do.

    It has nothing to do with iCloud.  The sync should handle it.

  • I have a new computer and it will not let me sync my ipod touch

    I am using a pc with windows 7 and I also installed itunes, but when I want to sync it tells me that it can only sync to one computer, and that syncing would erase all the data on the ipod touch. I need to get pictures, videos and music off my ipod touch.

    Thanks for your responses,
    but I am not worried about any music on my ipod touch, I have not even ever purchased a song from itunes, but only copied my own personal music cds.
    I need to get to my pictures and videos.
    Thanks

  • My album artwork will not display correctly on my iPod Touch

    I have a 4th gen iPod Touch. Recently, I've noticed that a lot of my album artwork is displaying incorrectly in coverflow, and sometimes not at all. I can not figure out why this is happening, as the artwork displays fine in iTunes, and actually shows up in coverflow on the iPod occasionally. However, when I turn my iPod to portrait orientation, they disappear, turn upside down and perform various other acrobatic stunts.
    Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance.

    How are you adding the artwork to the songs?
    You should try adding the artwork to the songs in iTunes first, not directly to the songs on the iPod (through iTunes).
    If you add artwork directly to the iPod, the artwork is sometimes not displayed when playing songs.

  • My backed up apps will not restore back on my iPod touch how do I do that?

    I just updated  my iPod touch 4 to the iOS 5 version and when i turned it back on it had all the new features, all my previous pictures, mail, music, contacts, and videos but  it did not have ANY of my apps I downloaded to my iPod touch when it was just the 4 version. I syched my iPod touch just before i updated it  so i have all the apps on my computer but how can i put them back on to my ipod touch again? please answer this question! AND SOON!

    you transfer iTunes purchases to your computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    Transfer non-iTunes music by the info provided in this previous discussion:
    Best iPod to PC
    After you move the stuff to the new computer let iTunes erase your iPod and replace its contents with what is now in your iTunes library.

  • App will not download on to the iPod Touch

    Hi all i tried to put a new App that i have in my iTunes, App uses 1.27GB : My 16GB iPod Touch has
    Audio 11.89GB space used
    Photos 1.5MB space used
    Apps 1.8MB space used
    Other 199.9MB space used
    Fee space left 2.43GB
    1st Question is - What is the Other?
    2nd Question is - it's only 1.27GB with 2.43GB free it should download on i would think, why not?
    Message i get is - NOT ENOUGH FREE SPACE

    Other is weird stuff and usually decreases when the iPod is synced. Based on iPad experience, frequently storage space on the iPad is not reclaimed (even though it says it is available) when items are deleted via the iPad. The storage space is reclaimed upon syncing. Maybe the same applies to the iPod.
