Stuck on Lock mode

I've tried resetting it, I've held the buttons down, I've let it empty its battery (I left it alone for more than 42 hours, but there's no way for me to tell if it died), but it's still stuck on Locked mode. Not Screen Lock, though. It's really frustrating.
I've toggled the Hold switch and it appears fine other than being locked. It uploads into iTunes, which I have the newest version of, and I can update it and stuff, it just is locked and I can't get into it.
Please help!

i got a big problem with my ipod nano(1st gen.
One night i accidentally fell it from my bed. it has a case not a silicon but a hard plastic one. when i took it from the floor, nothing appeared on the screen when i decided to connect it to the computer. when it was connected it turned on and the logo appeared but the problem is the hold logo/lock logo appeared even it was not on hold. i mean the slide button is on unhold. so i can't play or use it. i already tried to toggle the sitch and restore its factory settings still nothing happenned.

  • Ipod is stuck in lock mode

    Do you know how to restart an old Ipod because my ipod is stuck in lock mode.

    Does "lock mode" mean your iPod's buttons do not work, or does it mean you need to enter a code on a screen?

  • 160GB iPod classic stuck in lock mode

    My 160gb iPod classic is stuck in lock mode.
    The lock switch is off and the iPod itself is still "locked"
    Is there any way i can fix this? it seems like there's a glitch with the lock but it moves smoothly and doesn't seem to have anything wrong with it
    Yet the iPod is still locked
    should I take it to the apple store?

    If none of the 5 R's are able to resolve the issue, it's likely a hardware issue, meaning you'll need to have the iPod serviced/replaced either by Apple or a third party service.

  • Ipod stuck in lock mode and won't connect to Windows computer

    My Ipod is stuck on the lock position and won't connect to my computer when I plug it in. The hold switch moves back and forth just fine and it was working perfectly yesterday. It's the classic nano that's square. It's stuck on a song that I used as my alarm yesterday morning. I haven't turned it on since then and when I pushed the on switch, it went to the screen but then wouldn't do anything else. I've tried to hold down the menu and middle button while moving the hold switch, but it didn't work. Please help!

    I fixed it! I had to switch the hold button from on to off to on again and then held the menu and middle button down at the same time. It works just fine now!

  • IPhone 4 stuck in locked mode, also stuck in Siri voice

    A few minutes ago, I found my two year old pushing the buttons on my screen.  It was locked and he an't do the number code to open it, so he was just going crazy pushing everything that "pinged".  Now, my touch screen is unresponsive, the slider button will not slide to unlock, AND the Siri voice somehow got turned on in the process.  Can the screen get "overstimulated"?  How do I fix it?
    I held down both buttons to restart, but nothing changed. Help!!!

    Yes, you were in Accessibility mode. If by chance you do not want to have that happen again, you can turn Accessibility off in iTunes. Connect the phone to the computer and iTunes, and on the Summary page, scroll to the bottom of the page and select Accessibility functions and you can turn it off. Or if you still want the ability to do certain things with Accessibility, you can go to Settings>General>Accessibility and then go to Accessibility Shortcut and turn it off. Good luck with your new phone.

  • IPod stuck in Lock mode...Help!

    My iPod is stuck on the screen Lock, where you have to enter the 4 digit number. I know what my password is, but it wont unlock. WHen i press the center button, it doesnt accept it. it doesnt say that it is wrong, either.I tried to reset it while in lock, but it wont work either. Basically, the center button doesnt work. please help!!!!

    Hook it up to the computer and it automaticly unlocks. If the center button doesen't work restore it's factory settings.

  • IPod Nano stuck in "lock" mode

    My iPod nano seems to be stuck in the locked position - not "locked" because I created a password for it, but it simply displays the lock symbol in the upper left corner regardless of how many times I flip the switch back to what should be "unlocked."  Because of this, I have no control over it.  When I disconnect it from my PC, the screen turns black and I cannot operate it.  Battery is fully charged.  Have tried soft reset many times, restore several times - no luck.
    Suggestions??????
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello paolamike,
    Not much for options here.  You'll need to have your iPod serviced either by Apple or a third party repair company to have the hold/lock switch replaced.

  • Ipad Keyboard Dock Stuck in Lock Mode

    Hello,
    I got an Ipad today, but we're having some problems. Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Okay, so it was working fine at first. We bought the Ipad keyboard dock, plugged it in, and then started having problems. Soon after plugging it to the dock, the touch screen stopped responding to touch. We unhooked the ipad from the keyboard dock, but it was still unresponsive to touch. I realize that there is a lock button in the top right corner of the keyboard dock, but that isn't working. That button seems to be operating as a sleep/wake button.
    I tried restarting it by holding the sleep/wake button and the home button simultaneously, but that didn't work. The problem is, I can't do the "slide to power off," because the screen is unresponsive to touch. I hooked the ipad back up to the computer and did a full restore, but it is still unresponsive to touch.
    I can still rotate the screen; I can put the ipad to sleep. When I put it on the keyboard dock, the volume and brightness controls function.
    Any help would be great. Thanks!

    Thanks. Yeah, we called an Apple technician today, told him the problem, and he said that it is probably defective. We have a warranty, so we are mailing in this broken IPad. A new one will be shipped to us.
    The weird thing is, the IPad didn't stop responding to touch until we attached it to the keyboard dock. The IPad could have been defective from the start, but I hope that the keyboard won't do the same thing to the new IPad.

  • IPad Stuck in LOCKED mode after RESTORE asking for apple ID I no Longer use

    Hi All,
    This Morning I upgraded to iOS7. Both my iPad (3rd) and iPhone (4) were asking for iCloud ID I no longer use. Although I use the same Apple account but with a different e-mail ID. I Restored my iPad to factory settings and now it wont go pass the UNLOCK screen asking for the same OLD Apple ID.

    I was bussy with updating my IPad when asked for Apple ID did put it in but IPad stuck

  • Zen V Plus stuck in locked m

    My Zen V Plus is stuck in locked mode. I can't shut it down normally, but I can restart it using the usual button. Once I get to the screen that displays the last song I was listening to, it shows the locked symbol and won't let me do anything else.
    I've tried upgrading the firmware, using the recovery tool that creative zen has provided. Nothing changed. I've tried to restart it in recovery mode, but it won't go into it--just returns to the same screen with the lock showing. I don't even mind wiping the whole thing out since I have the firmware I could download. But nothing will budge it out of the locked mode.
    Any suggestions would be most appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Mary Lou

    I'm also having this problem and would have tremendous appreciation for anyone who could offer a solution. My Zen V Plus worked well for about three months before this problem arose, and I really enjoyed having it, so it's very dissapointing to me that it's not working anymore.
    The behavior: as soon as the player is turned on, it goes into locked mode, regardless of the position of the lock toggle switch. If I toggle the lock switch, it either wakes up and then immediately goes back into locked mode or simply doesn't respond. If I'm lucky, I can get it to actually unlock by toggling the switch many times in a row, but then it will return to locked mode after a few seconds.
    A few more details: I have tried doing a hard reset. I am not having any trouble syncing the player to my computer. Also, this problem creeped up slowly: it started just happening once in a while, but now it happens every time I use the player.
    Thank you in advance to anyone who can help.

  • My iPod touch is stuck in recovery mode and my lock button is broken what do I do

    My iPod touch is stuck in recovery mode and my lock button is broken what do I do?

    What happens when you connect to computer and restore via iTunes?
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    - 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.

  • Lock screen and other app stuck on zoomed mode

    I noticed that my lock screen is stuck on zoomed mode. When I'm in my home screen it's in standard view. Also I'm having the same issue with my apps. Apps like Pinterest, Tumblr, Swarm, Twitter looks fine but other apps like Facebook and Instagram are all stuck on zoomed mode. How do i fix this?

    Hello iankyliu,
    It may be that the zoom accessibility feature has been enabled. The article linked below details how to go about turning it off.
    iOS: Home screen icons are magnified or large

    Otherwise, it may be Display Zoom that's enabled, which is explained in the iPhone User Guide.

  • My iPod touch 4th gen is stuck in recovery mode with a broken 'lock' button.

    My iPod touch 4th generation is stuck in recovery mode with a black screen and I can't get it out. It has a broken lock button and I have tried everything to get it out of recovery mode. Every time I plug it into iTunes, it recognises my iPod and says 'iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode. You must restore this iPod before it can be used in iTunes, so I have restored it several times and every time, it says there is an unknown error. Please Help!! (my iPod is IOS 6.0.1)

    What is the complete wording of the error message that says unknown error? Usually more information like a error number is also given.
