New ipod came locked out of the box

Battery is very low, but charging. Could that be why the device shows locked?
Will resetting / reloading factory setting fix this lock situation so I can use the device?

Perhaps. Try it.
Try cycling the Hold switch a few times.
Where is it showing locked?

Which camera works out of the box?

Hi.
I would like to add a webcam on an iMac G5. As iSight does not exist anymore could someone recommend a camera that works out of the box (=fully supported by Mac OS X). I would avoid using software like Macam and iChatUSBCam if possible...
I have found on the iChatUSBCam webpage that Mac OS X (>10.4.3) has built-in driver for the "Logitech QuickCam PRO 5000". Could someone confirm?
Thanks in advance,
Emmanuel

Hi
Might be in their catalogue but not on their web site HERE

Then I tried to restore but it said I needed to turn off "find my ipod" which I cant because I need the passcode to get to settings. I then tried the home button power off but when i get to itunes restore ipod it tells me I need passcode. pleae help what step am I missing? go s l o w l y please I am new to mac after 20 years on pc and need help in steps that are not intuitive to me.

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.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
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

Sim card locked out of the box

I got a ipad 3G at the apple store the other day. I had it activated at the apple store. I didn't have the 3G activated. When I took it back to the hotel. I wanted to turn 3G on because the bandwidth at the hotel is slower than death. When I tried to turn 3G on it told me that the sim card need a PUK code. I went to the local AT&T store. They couldn't do anything about it. Any ideas from here?

It's amazing what one can learn from using the search function on here. It's a little box on the upper right corner. It says "Search Discussions."
And here are dozens of hits on how to correct it.

Please help - Brand new X1 Carbon defective out of the box - is this normal? what should I do next?

Hello all,
So, as a loyal Lenovo customer I decided to purchase the X1 Carbon 2nd Gen (non-touch, I5 version).
Last week I finally received it.
Unfortunately, the first thing I noticed was a defective touchpad - very loose, the right bottom corner was not solid
enough and made a weird noise while clicking it. It drove me crazy since I am used to the top build quality the Thinkpad series offers.
I took to the local Lenovo service center, they actually replaced it on the spot and it made it better, not great but better. I still think there is something wrong there, since the bottom two "buttons" don't feet and sound as good as the upper ones.
But that I can tolarate.
The thing that really pissed me off was this: To me demise, after using the laptop in a dark room I noticed this massive screen bleed :
(apologize for the ling stream of pics, didn't know how to thumbnail them)
My question to you guys, is this okay? is this an acceptable bleed? or should I do whatever it takes to get it repaired/replaced?
I just hope they will know how to handle this here at local center, as from my experience dealing with computer reps here, the local Lenovo agent (which is actually the importer) will not replace it for me (their excuse is that it wasn't bought in this country)
This is amazing, in one year Lenovo has lost it's entire reputation over the 2nd Gen X1 carbon.
Please help me. what should I do?
Thank you very much.

Install Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion Using Internet Recovery
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
Partition and Format the hard drive:
1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
2. After DU loads select your newly installed hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion. Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
This will install the version of OS X that originally came with your model if you have a model that supports Internet Recovery - 2010 models and later: Computers that can be upgraded to use OS X Internet Recovery.

Brand New 30g Video Ipod...dead right out of the box

So I take my new ipod out of the box and it wont turn on. I plug it up to the outlet charger and the screen lights up but says nothing and does nothing. It makes a little humming noise and gets very very hot also. Plugging it up to computer hasn't helped, it doesn't even light up with it. Anyone have any ideas?

Welcome to Discussions!
Have you tried resetting the iPod by holding the Menu and Center buttons?
If that doesn't change anything, it sounds like you received a defective iPod.
You can 1) return it to the store or 2)fill out a service request here: http://depot.info.apple.com/ipod

I have a new iPad2 - just out of the box. Everything works, except I cannot download or update applications. It will not accept my password. My iPod will accept the password. What might the problem be?

Use iTunes on your computer. With the iPad connected, sign into your Apple account and check for updates.
Doing this should straighten out the problem.

New out of the box MacBook Pro with Caps Lock/Num Lock lit keys

I just set up my brand new MacBook Pro 15" laptop and, right out of the box, the Caps Lock and Num Lock keys were lit up. I didn't think anything of it, and transferred all my user files from my old PowerBook G4. Well, they 2 keys seem to be working in reverse. When Caps Lock is lit up green, all characters are in lower case. Same as Num Lock. Any advice? Do I have a lemon?
Thanks!

I've also had this problem twice over the past couple of weeks.
I have a theory that it has something to do with plugging in my USB mouse during the system boot. A reboot cured it both times though, and it's not gotten tot he point that it's annoying enough to investigate further.

Brand New Ipod touch 4th gen right earphone jack not working out of the box. Bought at Wal-Mart yesterday. Are we missing something in the set up or should we return it?

We just purchased an ipod touch 4th gen 8 gb from Wal Mart. OUt of the box the right headphone is not working. Tried numerous pairs of headphones..tried the mono settings and nothing is working. Is there a setting we are missing or should we just return it?

If the headphone plug is fully inserted, I would return the iPod for a replacement

IPod Nano 7th Generation - Bad out of the box?

I just purchased the iPod Nano 7th generation today and came home to sync it with iTunes. iTunes recognizes the device for a second then I receive a "Disk was not ejected properly. If possible, always eject a disk before unplugging it or turning it off." message. I can see the iPod in iTunes for a second then it disappears. As I keep it plugged in it will recognize, disappear, reapear then disappear again.
I purchased an iPod Touch 5th generation today and that is working just fine (as well as synching my other iDevices). Is this nano bad out of the box?

Same thing happened to me. It did download the playlists I wanted, but the next time I plugged it in it acted as though it was being plugged in for the very first time, (regsitration and set up etc.)
But the really bad news is the BATTERY LIFE. maybe get one hour of play time before it drains to zero.
Anyone else have this issue?

Just got a new IPAD3, straight out of the box, but I cant charge it, I have tried with the power plug and cable out of the box but no joy, i have tried resetting the iPad but still no joy, have tried different plug sockets, different plugs/cables, help

Just got a new IPAD3, straight out of the box, but I cant charge it, I have tried with the power plug and cable out of the box that came with it but no joy, i have tried resetting the iPad but still no joy, have tried different mains plug sockets around the house with no joy, I have tried different USB mains plugs but again no joy, I tried using my new iPad cable into the USB port of my MacBook Pro laptop but still no joy, then, I tried using my old iPod classic cable into my MacBook Pro and that worked, so I have a way of charging my new iPad3 but its not practical as i have to take my MacBook Pro everywhere if I want to charge it which kind of defeats the object of having an iPad, has anybody experienced anything similar and how was it fixed? can anybody help me please...

Grumpy Gator,
Please note it did say at the store's discretion, but people have actually been able to return it to the on-line store. (I only saw a couple who tried.)
And given the outcry, I would think Apple might have other Apple stores join in. Just in case, though, if you can, you might bring it in today.
If it's an ARS, my guess is they can stick to their 14 day return. Apple cannot force them to do it. SO if it's not bought directly from Apple, and it's past the 14 day deal, I'd bring it in to the store today if you have one. When I gave people the cnet.com site, I gave it so people could read it and know only Apple had made the decision for Apple. And I suggested to some that an Apple reseller would probably stick with their own return policy.
Because Arnie had just bought his, he should be able to return it to Apple or an ARS because an ARS has to have some kind of full refund or at least return for credit within 7 or 14 days of purchase.
Hope this helps.

Can I charge my ipod 5th generation right out of the box,without setting up account

IPod Touch 1st Generation doesn't work directly out of the box?

I just bought a first generation iPod touch and first things first I plug it into my PC. Nothing happens on the iPod and on iTunes I immediately get a message saying "iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode. You must restore it before it is usable with iTunes." So I hit OK and click yes to the message about restoring it to its factory settings, considering that's how it should be anyway since I had literally just taken it out of the box. I finally get a reaction from the iPod, and it's a solid white screen followed by the apple logo, and then for about 5 minutes iTunes says it's "prepaying the iPod for restore..." followed by the error message "The iPod "iPod" could not be restored, an unknown error occured. (1604)" Then the iPod disconnects from iTunes and proceeds to be frozen at the Apple logo screen. I have looked at all the troubleshooting walkthroughs and none of them work because I have never seen a screen on the iPod other than the Apple logo, it seems as though the only way to fix this is if I just take it back and get a replacement

Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Is the device brand new? - the Second Generation have been around for some time now so I hope you got a good price on it.
Have a read of this article which explains how to deal with the 1604 error:
