TS2771 Ipod is disabled?

My 2nd generation ipod touch is saying its disabled. What do I need to do about this?

If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup).
If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.
You may have to force iPad into Recovery Mode

  • TS2771 iPod touch disabled

    Ipod touch 4 is disabled how do we get it back up.

    Placing your device into recovery (DFU) mode:
    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.
    Additional Information:
    If you have a problem getting into recovery mode then try: RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode.
    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.

  • TS2771 Cant remember password and IPod says "DISABLED"

  • IPod not recognized by iTunes. Also iPod seems disabled/locked showing  "do not disconnect". Not responding to anything. Any help please.

    My iPod is not being recognized by iTunes. iPod seems disabled and not responding to anything. Permanently on "do not disconnect". Not sure what to do.

    Hello,
    My iPod is not being recognized by iTunes or internet
    explorer. It used to, but not anymore. It just
    dosent show up when I connect it to my computer.
    Also, the "do no disconnect" sign does not appear on
    my iPod when I connect it. It is still able to
    recharge, though.
    have u tried a different usb port?
    I read that I have to restore it. I have tons of
    songs in my iPod that I do NOT want erased! How can
    I back these songs up? I have some songs on my iPod
    that are from another person's computer, so if they
    get erased, the songs are gone forever.

  • I've forgot my passcode on my Ipod and it says Ipod is disabled connect to itunes, but when i connect it to itunes it doesn't even come up at the side, i don't mind if i lose everything just what do i do?

    this is the second time i have forgotten my passcode to my ipod touch, the first time i had no problem with resetting everything, it worked fine, this time it says ipod is disabled connect to itunes, so i plug it into my laptop and i sit there staring at the side bar on itunes till it comes up with my ipod, but it doesn't, when i do this on another computer it lets me restore it, but then it stops halfway and said cannot do this since ipod is locked with a passcode, please enter the passcode and try again, but if i cant get into it how can i put in my passcode? is there any way that i can find out my passcode, or any other way i can reset my ipod
    its an ipod touch 4th generation

    Options for when an iOS device gets locked because of forgotten passcode:
    Restore (and reset passcode) on your device by connecting it to the last computer to which it was connected:
    iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring iOS software - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    If you cannot connect it to the computer to which the device was last connected (or the device was never connected to a computer) you will have to use recovery mode to completely reset the device, losing all data:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 - recovery mode (e.g., cannot connect to computer last used to sync device, iTunes still asks for a password)
    If recovery does not work there's:

  • IPod Touch disabled and can't connect to iTunes?

    My iPod touch 4th gen has been fully disabled so that it says 'connect to iTunes'. But when I do that, it says I need to unlock my iPod first, which I can't do because my iPod is disabled. What do I do? Also, I don't want to restore my iPod because I don't have some data backed up. Thanks.

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased. You have no other choise. In the future make sure you frequently backup your iPod.

  • HT4113 my  granddaughter's iPod is disabled

    my grandaughters ipod is disabled.  Its not registered to my MAC but I've tried connecting it and pressing down the two side buttons and opening itunes. It just tells me
    "iTunes could not connect to the iPod touch “alison’s iPod” because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the iPod touch before it can be used with iTunes."
    which isn't very helpful, I know that.  She's ok to loose everything off her ipod and return to factory settings and I'm ok if we sync it to my MAC, she just wants her ipod back. Can anyone help please?
