Password to prevent altering ipod

is there a way to set a password that only needs to be entered when making changes to settings or deleting apps. similar to the master password needed to make changes on osx?
thanks in advance for the help

yeah that helps a little. my problem is that i want to install Undercover, the app that finds your ipod if its stolen. but it has to be pressed in order for i to activate. so i want someone to be able to get onto my ipod, butnot be able to remove the app

    Your new iPod Touch will use what ever ID you specify in Settings>iTunes & App Stores when you purchase apps and media from the iTunes and App stores, regardless of the ID you may have been using before on your older device.

  • How can I prevent my iPod nano from turning on by itself and running down the battery?

    I will arrive at my desk in the morning, stop the podcast I'm listening to, notice by the "play" button appearing on the screen and that absence of audio in my ears that the podcast has actually stopped, hold the big oval button down until the screen goes dark, and set my iPod down on the desk. Every now and again (maybe twice a week) I'll catch the iPod playing. It's usually off playing music (i.e. it's somehow navigated away from the podcast I've been listenting to and ended up in a music shuffle somewhere), and it will continue playing until the battery runs down or until I happen to notice it and turn it off. Doesn't only happen at work, happens anywhere...home, car. Result is that once or twice a week I go to use the iPod and the battery has completely run down.

  • HT1430 my daughter's ipod has been disabled after too many wrong password attempts. The ipod was not synced to a computer. How can we get it started?

    My daughter's ipod touch has been disabled after too many wrong password attempts.
    The ipod was never synced to the computer so can't connect to itunes.
    How else can we enable the ipod touch again?

    Restore, if iTunes will let you.  Everything except the password will be restored.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  In your case, choose any computer with iTunes software.  Be forewarned that it takes a long time.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

    If you forgot your screen-lock passcode then there is no way that I know to get stuff out of the iPod.  It is a security feature. Your only recourse is to restore the iPod which eraases the current content of the iPod.

    You can usually find the wi-fi password on your router itself if you know the router's ID and password (not the wi-fi password).  You can log into your router by putting its address (usually 192.168.1.1) into your browser's address window. 

  • My daughter used a password to lock her ipod touch and she can't remember it. Is there a way to reset the password. Thank you for any assistance

    My daughter used a password to lock her ipod touch and she cannot remember it. How do we unlock her ipod. Any assistance is wonderful

    To circumvent an iPod with a forgotten passcode you would need to restore the iPod to factory settings. This will remove the software and data/content from your iPod as well.
    To put your iPod/iPhone  into recovery mode:
    1. Make sure the iPod/iPhone is connected to a computer with iTunes installed on it.
    2. Hold down the sleep/wake button(top button) and the home button at the same time until the iPod/iPhone screen goes black then shows the apple logo( usually 10-15 seconds).
    3. Once the apple logo appears on the screen, let go of the sleep/wake button and keep holding the home button.
    4. The ipod/iphone screen should show an itunes logo and usb cable if you were successful. A dialog box will appear in iTunes that states an iPod/iPhone in recovery mode has been detected if you are successful.
    5. Click ok, then click the Restore button
    After that you should be up and running in no time!
    I hope that this is helpful.
