Restore, if iTunes will let you. Everything except the password will be restored. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. 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.

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

If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

I forgot my ipad password and now I am locked out?

I forgot my ipad password and now I am locked out. What can I do to reset the password on the ipad?

Connect the iPad to the computer that you normally sync to and you should then be able to reset the iPad and re-sync your content to it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212) - you may need to put the iPad into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
If you can't use the computer that you normally sync to then you will need to use a different computer, but you won't be able to re-sync your content.

Tried to update to newest version. I got error because i didn't have this recovery program disc that was supposed to come with the purchase but it didn't and now my ipod touch 8gb won't connect with itunes and is stuck on a connection with itunes screen

I tried to update to newest version via pc. I got error because i didn't have this recovery program disc that was supposed to come with the purchase so it says, but it didn't and now my ipod touch 8gb won't connect with itunes anymore and is stuck on a screen displaying an itunes icon with a usb icon.

oke i'm not done with the whole thing, but i'm doing that right now. Most of the advice I've already read didn't work and at a certain point it said something about shutting down programs then restart. but i notice that there are some pretty important system things in that list and i don't want to mess up my pc :s i'm not a pc genius... and because i'm dutch and my pc-language is in dutch I often have trouble translating and well... i don't always understand the technical stuff in all the articles -_-

Just updated my 3GS to the IOS 6 and now I'm locked out and it wont accept my former password, help!

I updated it and now I can't even get into the phone. I tried my old password, my password that I had before that, and common factory passwords but it won't accept any of them. I don't know what to do.

Nevermind, I figured it out. My case was interfering with me entering in the password.

I've forgotten one of my answes to the "security questions" now I am locked out of my account. All I wanted to do was buy an album and now I am "locked out" how do I get Itunes to let me buy this album?

I am not a ferquent user of Apple aside to download music on to my Ipod touch and I am not overly pleased with it. All I wish to do is download and ablum and cannot remeber the answers to one of my security questions.*seeing as I rarely use it* now I am locked out of my account and all and all very annoyed. how do I become unlocked and change my security questions so that I may download this album and stop using Itunes all in all.

Itunes updated files and now I'm locked out - help

So I just plugged my Ipod classic into the PC to charge it and Itunes opens up and says 'updating files'.
The old files (over 20gb of music and movies) are still on it, but it looks in the usage bar to have compartmentalized them off.
It then copied the whole lot over again... so now all the same files are on it twice.
And when I turn it on it has no files. No music, movies or the games i've downloaded. Nothing.
2 days ago I logged into my apple account on Itunes and downloaded a game for the Ipod. It didn't try to update it then, and didn't earlier today when I plugged it in. But this time it did what I mentioned above.
So now I can't access any of my music or movies on it. Help.
Will I have to restore it and start again?
EDIT: I've just plugged it in again, and it has added the 2nd lot to the compartmentalized files and tried to copy it all over again. So I forced it to stop syncing and ejected it.

Nevermind.
I called the number on my warranty we ended up having to restore it and start over.
Still don't know what caused the issue in the first place, so ill leave this marked as unanswered for now.
If anyone knows why it would do it please let me know
