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.

    You need to place the device in recovery mode.

    Hi Guys,
    I havent touched my Iphone 4s in ages (about a month). I came back to it the other day. I forgot the password, so naturally it disabled it and is telling me to connect to iTunes. In the meantime, i had got a new computer and didnt back up the itunes files (because im an idiot). So now when i connect it to iTunes it tells me to verify it on the phone, but i cant get in there because it is disabled. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP!!! I HAVE NO IDEA ON HOW TO FIX IT!! I've tried to restore it, I've tried to jailbreak it. NOTHING works!! PLEASE HELP!!!

  • HT201263 My sons 2ndG ipod touch has a disabled try again in 22,482,070 minutes waring across the top.

    It will not turn off & it will not go into recovery mode. I had to completely delete & reinstall itunes just so it woulkd even show up there. Now it says "Can not connect enter correct passcode on ipod" Which of course I don't have that option. He did not enter the wrong passcode so we have no idea whats happened. I have tried everything I can find on here to fix it & still unable to. Any help would be greatly appreciated

    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
    If you previously synced to the computer then you may be able to recover use of the iPod without erasing the iPod by following the instructions here:

    How long are you holding the buttons down? At least a minute?
    Is it charged?
    Is your USB power cord good?
    Will iTunes recognize the unit?
