Volume limit password

can't remember password for volume limit on iPod nano - any suggestions on how to retrieve it?

You can't. The only way to bypass it is to connect the Nano to your iTunes library and restore to factory settings. There is no other way unforunately.

Volume setup and volume limit password setup

Here is my problem, My Ipod has very low volume. I tried using the various EQ styles but its still low in very volume.
I tried the volume limit adjustment but I have no password and it never gave me a chance to make changes. When I entered a four digit of a new password, it just blinked green and no chnage happened.
Thanks in advance.

If you forget the combination, you need to restore the iPod.

Do you have an iPod touch? This is the iPod touch forum. If so:
Forgotten RESTRICTIONS Passcode
- Restore from a backup that was make before you added the Restrictions passcode. If you restore from a backup made with the Restrictions passcode the Restrictions passcode is also restored. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- If you are up to file manipulation see the following but it may not work for iOS 6.1.3:

If you're talking about the Maximium Volume Limit:
Setting the Maximum Volume Limit
You can set a limit for the maximum volume on iPod shuffle. You can also set a
password in iTunes to prevent this setting from being changed by someone else.
If you’ve set a volume limit on iPod shuffle, the status light blinks orange three times if
you try to increase the volume beyond the limit.
To set the maximum volume limit for iPod shuffle:
1 Set iPod shuffle to the desired maximum volume.
2 Connect iPod shuffle to your computer.
3 In iTunes, select iPod shuffle in the Source pane.
4 Click the Settings tab.
5 Select “Limit maximum volume.”
6 Drag the slider to the desired maximum volume.
The initial slider setting shows the volume the iPod shuffle was set to when you
selected the “Limit maximum volume” checkbox.
7 To require a password to change this setting, click the lock and enter a password.
If you set a password, you must enter it before you can change or remove the
maximum volume limit.
Note: The volume level may vary if you use different earphones or headphones.

IPod Nana - Playback Volume Limit - Changes Locked

I have been having problems with the Playback Volume limit. I set it at 50%, but then it was playing too softly. When I went to adjust, there was no Menu option to modify this. I saw another post that said to press and hold the Menu + center button, until the apple appears. This brought back the menu option.
However, I do not remember putting a password (4 digit number) on it. I tried the combo I use for my iPhone, and I guess I used something different.
Does anyone know how to erase the Volume Limit Combination Lock?
Thanks!

Try 0000 as the combination.
If that does not work, you will need to Restore it to reset the combo.

How do i reset pass code to unlock volume limit on ipod model mc525ll

Hi blondop,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
If you cannot remember the passcode, you can restore the iPod nano and then set it up again. The articles below provide more details about the maximum volume limit and restoring the iPod.

How to restore iPod
Verify that you have an active Internet connection, because you may need to download new versions of the iTunes and iPod Software.
Download and install the latest version of iTunes if necessary.
Open iTunes. Connect your iPod to your computer using the USB or FireWire cable that came with your iPod.
After a few moments, your iPod will appear in the Source panel in iTunes.
Select your iPod in the Source panel. You will see information about your iPod appear in the Summary tab of the main iTunes window.
Click Restore.
If you are using a Mac, you will be asked to enter an administrator’s name and password.
A progress bar will appear on the computer screen, indicating that stage one of the restore process has begun. When this stage is done, iTunes will present one of two messages with instructions specific to the iPod model you are restoring.
Disconnect iPod and connect it to iPod Power Adapter (typically applies to older iPod models).
Leave iPod connected to computer to complete restore (typically applies newer iPod models).
During stage two of the restore process, the iPod displays an Apple logo as well as a progress bar at the bottom of the display. It is critical that the iPod remain connected to the computer or iPod power adapter during this stage.
Note: The progress bar may be difficult to see, because the backlight on the iPod display may be off.
After stage two of the restore process is complete, the iTunes Setup Assistant window will appear. It will ask you to name your iPod and choose your syncing preferences, as it did when you connected your iPod for the first time.

I forgot my passcode for the volume limit, on my iPod Nano 4th Gen. How do I unlock it now?

I don't remember when, but apparently I gave a very low volume limit some time ago, and protected it with a password god knows why. Now i cant remember the password and cant increase the volume enough. Help?

The only way to reset the volume limit passcode is to connect the Nano to your iTunes library and restore it to factory settings.

Iphone 3gs- wont allow me to set a volume limit

my iphone laggs when i want to set a volume limit, consequently it doesnt set it

Try resetting your iPhone by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

How do I get to the Volume Limit again (iPod Red Nano)

I set this under Volume Limit in the Settings section but then when I went to change it, my thumb slipped and I accidentally set the 4 digit number for the Screen Lock (which I have not set) which was the 1st option. Now when I go back to Volume Limit to change it, I only see the Screen Lock option.
How do I get to change the volume limit again.
iBook 500 Mhz Ser#UV1331R1LCD Mac OS X (10.4.8)

This is exactly my problem. I have a newly acquired 1st generation Nano. I followed the directions from the knowledge base to the letter. But after confirming the combination, the screen does NOT return to the volume bar to allow a change of the volume limit, and I can find no work around.
Further input would be greatly appreciated.

Volume limit not going higher than about 75% ?

Hi, I just bought an iPod Classic 160GB after my trusty 30GB Video died, and I was denied service.
I seem to be having a little problem with it. When I try and put the volume limit all the way up, it sounds louder then it was, but when I want to accept this setting, the limit jumps back to about 75%, even though the selection arrow is all the way at the right?
I could really use this, since when I'm listening to certain podcasts, I have trouble hearing them when I'm on the train or bike.
Is this a bug?
I currently find myself turning up the volume limit without accepting, and waiting for the currently playing track, which is a very clumsy way of doing it.

Don't even think about it. As b-rock states, you cannot over-ride it and you cannot install "American firmware" onto your ipod. Apple have taken steps to prevent anyone over-riding the volume cap.
However, what you can do is buy yourself an external headphone amplifier. There are several different options, such as the famous CMoy amp (usually mounted in an Altoids tin and also known as the Altoids amplifier), or simply search online for headphone amplifier.
Personally, I own both an Altoids amp and a FiiO E11 amplifier. The Altoids amp runs on a 9volt battery, and can be purchased ready-made or as a kit to build yourself if you have the skills. The FiiO has a rechargeable phone battery in it, which is replaceable.
It would be irresponsible of me if I did not caution you to take care when you using one of these amplifiers, not to have it too loud for too long, which could seriously damage your hearing. (Hence the reason for the EU directive.)
I found that the benefit of one of these amps is to be able to hear the detail in the music, and not simply to have it loud. Because of that, I prefer the FiiO.
I do not receive any reward or compensation for my recommendation of either of these products. There are alternative brands available.
