My sister gave me her iPod and I want to change the name..is this possible?

Right now the title on my iPod is my sister's name (Erin's iPod) and I want to change it so it says my name. Is it possible to do this? Any help would be great! Thanks!

Superkix...easy......when the ipod is connected to iTunes in the left hand pane, click once on the ipod name, then click again (once) so that you can edit the name, highlight the text and change it to...say...."Erin's sisters iPod" or whatever you wish.

Connect the iPod to your computer with iTunes and restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod via iTunes on the computer. See the resoring topic of:
iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software

My daughter has put a passcode lock on her ipod and she doesnt remember it. How can I fix it?

please help me fix my daughters ipod. she has put a passcode on and cant remember it.

The only way to do that is to restore the iPod. Check the user guide, page 158 (or so).
If you forgot its password the device has to be restored. Make sure you are following the instructions in this procedure to the letter. Here they are, with emphasis on some easily overlooked requirements:
Disconnect the USB cable from the iPod touch, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release only the Sleep/Wake button.
Continue pressing and holding the Home button while you reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.Note: If you see the "low battery" screen, let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then start with step 2 again.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears (iTunes icon and USB connector) release the Home button.
If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the "recovery mode" alert ("iTunes has detected a phone in recovery mode").
Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you do not see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Select the device in iTunes and choose "restore from backup".

My daughter just got her ipod and she begam multiple apple id's. she entered her itunes card code into one of these and we dont know which one

my daughter received an ipod and an itunes card for christmas and began multiple apple id's with a few different email addresses. she entered the itunes card code into one of these. i have all the card info and receipt. is there anyway she can still use this card?

As long as you are signed into the account which she registered the card with, you will be able to use it. I'm guessing you just don't know which account that is. Logging into all of them would be the only way to find that out. Hope that helps :)

I have no clue what my daughters email and password are for her ipod and she does not either and it is locked for a long time what do i do

can i hook it up in my acct and see if that works?

My sister gave daughter her ipod touch....i want to download games onto it. How do I disassociate the ipod with my sister and change owner to my daughter? I have an itunes account, but my downloads are not going onto the ipod

Want the ipod to say my daughter's name not my sisters? Is this possible?

My friend gave me her Ipod and when I try and load music to it from my Itunes it says I don't have the privilege to do so. What do I do?

Help please??

When someone complains that their music upload stalls I immediately think of three problems:
1) corrupt song(s)
2) bad cable
3) bad hard drive
The list is actually in reverse order of my expectations. Since you were able to format the drive it obviously hasn't suffered a hard crash but there might be a very large number of bad sectors. Go here to see how to put the iPod into diagnostic mode so you can further check the drive.
If the drive passes muster borrow another cable. And finally, create a playlist and verify that each song is good by playing it. See if it will sync. If it does, add more songs (verified good). Keep repeating.

My brother gave me his ipod and he forgot the password what can i do to restore the ipod?

Is there a way to reset the password?

Options for when an iOS device gets locked because of forgotten password:
Restore (and reset password) on your device by connecting it to the last computer to which it was connected:
iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring iOS software - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
If you cannot connect it to the computer to which the device was last connected you will have to use recovery mode to completely reset the device, losing all data:
iOS: Unable to update or restore - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 - recovery mode (e.g., cannot connect to computer last used to sync device, iTunes still asks for a password)

My sister forgot her password to her ipod that she gave me and I have no idea on how to reset it, I downloaded itunes on my computer and tried to sync and restore but it said I had to sync it to the original computer but I dont have it

So yea my sister gave me her ipod touch and forgot her password, so I looked up how to restore it and it would not let me because it said I needed to sync the ipod up to the computer it had originally been synced to. Im nowhere near that computer and I just need to know is there another way I can restore to factory settings?

Place the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs and then restore via iTunes.:
For PC
RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
If necessary:
Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
and
RecBoot tip
RecBoot may have problems on 64X windows, then try:
Tenorshare ReiBoot – Enter & Exit iPhone, iPad, iPod Recovery Mode with a Single Click
For MAC or PC
The Firmware Umbrella - TinyUmbrella
Installs blootware on PC too
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.
Try on another computer too and try another cable.
