NEED HELP WITH IPOD 4TH GEN

I have an ipod touch 4th generation I forgot my password. Every time I try to restore it, it seems as tho its going to work but then comes up with some thing saying THAT I NEED MY PASSWORD. I have no idea what else to do. PLEASE HELP!!

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
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.

I need help with iPod Shuffle gen. 4?

My iPod shuffle gen. 4 will not download audiobooks. At first I was able to download 4 books, but now the downloads go to the computer only and not to the iPod. Any ideas?

Did you try this way? Copying personal photos and videos from iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your computer
If this does not work, you might have to use 3rd party software like Touchcopy for example

HELP! Ipod 4th gen. Not working! Need help fast!

My ipod 4th gen, died, and when I went to charge it. It showed the screen where the usb cord has an arrow above it pointing to the itunes symbol. I plugged in my ipod to my laptop, went on itunes, and there was no device recognized. And no pop up thing about the device, or restoring the device. I looked up sooo many things and nothing has helped me. I really need help, and fast! REMINDER: Im only 14, and dont have the money to take in my ipod to get it fixed, or to buy a new device. I would really appreciate the help if you know whats happening and how to fix it!

You need to restore the iPod via iTunes. Try the following to get iTunes to see the iPod so you can restore the iPod
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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 another cable
- 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.

Need help with Ipod demensions

I had a 15gb 3rd gen. I need to replace it with an ipod of the same exact size. If I have to get another 15gb that is fine. I also have a 30gb 3rd gen and it is thicker. I read somewhere that the 3rd gen 40gb is the same size as the 15gb?? Can I get a 4th gen? It can be a little thinner but the outside dimensions need to be the same. Any help would be appreciated.

why do you need an ipod the exact same size as an old ipod...? HuH?...xXxmartinxXx

I Need Help With My 4th generation Ipod!

Ok. I have a ipod 30gb(not colored). I found it recently and i decided to use it again so i updated my itunes and stuff and then i plugged it into my computer. A message appeared and had two buttons Update(i think) and Restore(i know for sure). I pressed the restore button and thought it would be fine but now the ipod has an adaptor of somesort pointing to a wall plug. What do i do to reset it?

When updating or restoring some iPods via a usb connection, it needs to be plugged into power via the charger to complete the process, and this is why you see that icon displayed.
You may be able to complete the process via a car charger, or via a powered firewire port on the computer (with the required 6 pin cable of course) if you have access to either of those. Or maybe visit an Apple store if one is nearby.
Or you can try this.

I make no claims as to whether this will work (but I've seen other posts where it has), but merely point it out.
Other than that, your iPod cannot be used until you complete this process.

Hi! REALLY REALLY NEED HELP WITH IPOD!

Hi,
I need to know if my ipod is damaged or if this is just a quirk. I have a fifth gen. video ipod. All of the sudden my ipod stopped playing all songs and videos that were purchased from itunes. I have no idea why. I looked up on the internet and it said something about installing the latest version of itunes so I did that. After I did that it then erased everything from my ipod. However, everything that was on my ipod still shows up in itunes when I plug it in like it is all still there, however, nothing shows up on the actual ipod. Is there something wrong with my ipod and how do I fix this??
Thanks so much,
Maria

Need help with Ipod/FM transmitter use in Europe !!!

HELP! I need to know if I can use my ipod and my Griffin FM Transmitter to listen to tunes and charge the player with a car in Europe (Germany, Italy, etc.)
HP Windows XP

It appears that FM transmitters have been passed for use recently by Germany, Switzerland and Iceland. When or if the UK or any other European countries will allow them I don't know. This is a link to an announcement by Belkin on the subject: http://www.belkin.com/pressroom/releases/uploads/030906FMTranEurope.html

Need help with ipod & itunes

Hey everyone.
I just got a ipod video and i went to my friends house and put a whole bunch of songs on it. Well i want those songs on my ipod video onto my itunes on my home computer but i cant seem to get them on without over writting the songs on my ipod video with the songs on my itunes already, which i dont want to happen because i dont want to loose any of the songs on my ipod video. Someone please help me.

1) go back to your friends house and put all the song files you want into a folder on his computer.
2) plug in your ipod to his computer and enable disk use.
3) then open it up from "my computer", you'll see a few folders like "notes", "contacts" etc.
4) drag and drop the folder you created with all the song files. Don't put this in one of the ipod's pre-made folders.
5) go home, open your ipod again from disk use and select the folder you made with all the song files. drag and drop this anywhere you want in your computer (I suggest putting it with where you store more music)
Lastly you need to import these songs, open itunes and select File>Add Folder to Library. you will then select the folder of music from your friends house, wherever you dropped it.
After you have added the songs to your library you are free to delete ONLY the folder you created in your iPod (with the music files from your friend).
Hope this helps

I need help with a 4th generation nano.

I have a 4th generation iPod nano and this morning it just wouldn't turn on! I've tried resetting it and I've tried plugging it into the computer and a dock but it is completely unresponsive. (The hold button is definitely off). Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I could do?

If this doesn't help then the ipod needs serviced.

Hey please read need help with ipod

how do I set my playlist so if i hook up my ipod it only downloads my songs but if anyone else hooks up there ipod there songs won't come into my playlist? PLEASE HELP
Message was edited by: Alissa-55

first of all, i'm not sure if i understand your question fully but i believe you just want your OWN playlist so that you can put the songs YOU want on it and no one ELSE can put their music in it?
if that's the case, you just need to make your own playlist on your ipod.
open up itunes and near the top, select "file".
select "new playlist".
this new playlist should appear on the left-hand side of itunes under 'playlists' right at the bottom. when it appears, it will read 'untitled playlist'. click it once then again, so that you are able to name the playlist to your liking.
when it comes to putting songs into your own playlist, you can drag any song from your itunes library. choose a song from your itunes library and drag it over to your designated playlist til you see your playlist is outlined with blue and your cursor has a plus sign just below it.
hope that helps.
