My eldest son gave my youngest son his ipod. He locked it with a passcode, couldn't remember and now it is disabled. Will not work trying to get it in recovery/restore mode. Original synced computer not around anymore, either is eldest. Not worried about losing data as my young son can have it now. What else can I try?? I follow the steps and it still says ipod is disabled on ipod screen. iTunes keeps saying it needs passcode.....
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

Next try placing the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs:

If necessary:
Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store -
I've been getting an error message lately which states the following:
Web Sync could not initialize properly. Check that Polar Daemon is running and start Web Sync again. To restart Polar Daemon you need to run 2 commands in Terminal Start Applications>Utilities>Terminal. To stop Polar Daemon which is already running, write a command”sudo launchctl unload/library/launch daemon/fi.polar.polard.plist.” and press enter. Enter your password when required. If Polar Daemon is not running, “error unloading” message appears. Ignore this error message. Write “sudo launchclt load/library/launch daemons/fi.polar.polard. plist” and press enter to run Polar Daemon.
Is this something I should be concerned about, and if so, what do I do about it?
ThanksThat error message comes from third-party software that you installed. If it isn't working, either remove it according to the developer's instructions, reinstall it, or refer to the developer for support. Back up all data before making any changes.

HT1386 When I sync my notes to my computer what folder do they go to, cause I can't find them
When I sync my notes to my computer what folder do they go to, cause I can't find them
Your notes are probably synced to an app, not so much a folder. See below from: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1386?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
The first time you sync the Info tab with your iOS device, you are asked if you want to merge data, replace data on the service, or replace the data on your computer from the following applications:
Mac: Address Book, iCal, Microsoft Entourage, or Microsoft Outlook 2011
PC: Microsoft Outlook, Outlook Express, Windows Addressbook (XP) and Windows Contacts (Vista and Windows 7)
For more information about syncing your device with your computer, see the user's guide or see this article. -

Have you set up iCloud on all 3 devices and turned on Notes syncing? On the Mac: Apple Menu > System Preferences > iCloud and put a check mark beside Notes. On the other two, Settings > iCloud and turn Notes on. More info on iCloud setup: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/

I recently purchased an album from itunes. When I subsequently sync'ed my ipod touch I ended up with all tracks of that album doubled on my ipod and I lost all my playlists. Subsequent syncing has not fixed it. Any ideas what to try?
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
You said:
No, I do not want to "factory reset" my iPod. No I do not wish to do anything crazy long or hard to fix this.
That may be necessary, It is not what you want to do/not do but what is required to resolve your problem. -
HT1212 What if nothing is working synced or not? What should you do then?
What if nothing is working synced or not? What should you do then?
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- 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.

I have recently been trying to set my ipod up on my nwe laptop (windows). Today when I installed iTunes to my computer, it gave me the option to Remove and sync all of my music and what not from my ipod and sync whatever was already on my computer. I backed up my ipod, but will I still lose all of my music and apps and such if I remove and sync?
Yes.
If your iPod was synced initially with another computer it will replace whatever is on it now with what is in iTunes.
If you have access to your ols computer you can move your iTunes library to the new one by copying the whole iTunes folder from My Music and putting it in the My Music folder of the new one.
iTunes purchases can be redownloaed. Any ripped CDs will to be transfered into your current iTunes library via third party software. -

You can't change it but you can create an alias to use. -
My iCloud storage is full and I need to delete some stuff. Can anyone tell me what is important to keep and what not? I'm just not sure what I really should back up each night and what doesn't really matter. I know my photo's should back up, but other than that, I'm not really sure.
I have taken some pics off and videos and appt, but it still says I need to delete before I can back up on iCloud. I'm starting to wonder if its a glitch with my personal phone. Can anyone help me?
Thanks!Only you can decide what's critical to back up. One option is to import your photos and videos to your computer (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083), then either delete them from your phone or exclude the camera roll from your backup in settings.
You might try going to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap the name of your device under Backups, under Backup Options tap Show All Apps, then turn them all to Off (including camera roll), then look at the size of your next backup. If it doesn't go down significantly, something else is wrong. -

Change my mind on what not to backup
Hi,
I just did my first Time Machine backup. After it was finished, I decided no to backup my Download folder and some other folders ( that are already backed up ). When the next backup began and finished, the folders I chose no to back up were successfully not back up.
In the Time machine disk , now there are 2 Backup folders, is it ok to delete the first one ( the one before changing what not to back up?

Not via the Finder or Terminal. Apple doesn't do a very good job of warning folks +*never to change, move, or delete anything there+* via the Finder or Terminal. That can hopelessly corrupt your backups.
But you can delete an entire backup, or all backups of selected items, via the "Star Wars" display. See #12 in [Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions|http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/FAQ.html] (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum).
