Passcode help!

My Ipod was locked for 22 million minutes and I just got it to where it will let me enter the passcode again but I don't remember it. Itues won't let me reset or restore the ipod without the passcode and that's my problem. What do I do?

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

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

    You can restore from a backup if you have one from BEFORE you set the restrictions passcode.

    You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.
    You can restore from a backup if you have one from BEFORE you set the restrictions passcode.
    If none of the above work for you, then:
    Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
       1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the
           other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
       2. 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 the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
      3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
           device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
           let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
           charge, and then start with step 2 again.
      4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
           When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
      5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
      6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
    If you don't 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.
    Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

    If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
    Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
    ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5 and 5C. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
    You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
    To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
    You will find respective repair costs in the appropriate link:
    iPod Service Support and Costs
    iPhone Service Support and Costs
    iPad Service Support and Costs
    There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
    1. iResq or Google for others.
    2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit

  • IPad2 Passcode help

    I have never set up a passcode to unlock my iPad. Suddenly it is asking for a passcode to unlock the screen. I used it before bed and no one has had access to it since then. Now it asks for a code that I don't have. How can I fix this problem?

    If you have tried a reboot, hold both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears and it restarts, ignoring the red slider if it appears, does not help clear that message, then somehow it has had a passcode installed.  Only way to clear that is to follow the steps in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212 which may need to be done more than once.

  • It's a long story but I need to enter a new password because I can't remember my old passcode, Help!!!!

    I need help.  I was trying to sync my iphone 4s to my media in my new car and I messed around and somehow changed my passcode.  Now I cannot get into my iphone.  So before I make an appt with the apple genius, I thought I'd ask someone in the community.  I need help!!!!!

    I want to thank Allan Sampson and Dr Simie for helping me.  I was finally able to reset my iphone 4s.  FYI:  When I was trying to sync my iphone with my car, I now realize I put a passcode on my iphone which I had never put one on it before.  Anyway, I kept working on freeing up more disk space on my computer and to make a long story short, I was up past 2am working on this, but finally my iphone is restored and I have all my stuff.  I now have a passcode which I am sure to not forget.  Like I said, I've never had a passcode before, but I kind of like the security of it.  So I think I'll go ahead and keep it.
    So again, I'd like to thank you for steering me in the right direction.

    hi! i cant remember my restriction passcode for my iphone5. help!

    You need to enter the four digit passcode that you enter when you start your iPad or awaken it from sleep after an Autolock. If you do not remember the passcode you will have to restore the device. Here's a link to what to do when you forgot your passcode.
