When i press the "home" button the screen says IPOD DISABLED connect to itunes. when I hook up to itunes it says it cannot recognize the ipod till it has the passcode entered, but the screen still says Ipod disabled   connect to  itunes

my 4th gen ipod touch says ..... IPOD DISABLED   connect to ITunes.  I connect to Itunes ...Itunes says it cannot recognize or communicate with the Ipod till i enter the passcode.  Does anyone know what to do?

Connect the device to the iTunes the iPod is normally synced with in recovery mode and restore it.  See this article for instructions on getting the iPod into recovery mode.

  • HT1688 My iphone keeps blanking out and then when I press then home button it tells me the battery is dead. it has happened to me at 30%, but today it was at 71%, is there a fix for this?

    My iphone keeps blanking out and then when I press then home button it tells me the battery is dead. it has happened to me at 30%, but today it was at 71%, is there a fix for this?

    This is often due to faulty battery. Make Genius reservation and take iPhone to Apple Store for free quick battery diagnostic testing.

  • My home button is loose and snappy. When resting my thumb on the home button I can gently slide it around. Also when pressing home buttonit sounds snappy...!?!?!

    WHen i rest my thumb on the home button... i can gently slide it around. Also when I press the home buttton it sounds snappy... Similar to when pressing the center of a jar cap after it has been opened. Is this normal? Do I have a defective phone?

    The button has multiple functions.  Pressing, tapping, reading your finger print,..  If you think it is too loose, visit an apple retail store (with an appointment), and have them look at it.  But I think that it should have some play, as to access reachability, you have to touch it twice, while tapping it twice brings up the app switcher.

  • I have my iPhone locked and I don't want the music controls to pop up when I double click the home button. Does anyone know how to make it stop?

    what exactly are you trying to accomplish here? i understand that you don't want to see the music status come up on your lock screen, but what are you trying to do by clicking your home button at all?

  • Uage, it seems to be saying"Button" so I press the home button but nothing happens!!!!!!!!!!!

    I just bought an Ipad 3G and can't get past the first page of the setup. I choose a language (english) and hit the home button and nothing happens!!!!!!!!!! What am I doing wrong?

    I'm pretty sure it say Next button or continue button, not Home. The home button would move you out of an application. When setting up you need to press the blue button with the white arrow at the top right corner to move on.

  • When i double click home button, I can see many applications running. How do I terminate these?

    Those are not necessarily running. It's a list of previously opened apps for the most part. You can flick the cards upwards to get rid of them.

  • My screen went black but the phone is still working because I can hear my text tones come in and also is ringing when someone calls.Screen is still black.Held the home button and top button for up to 5 min,I'm not getting an apple logo for reset. HELP!

    The contract on this phone expires March 19. Its not worth getting a new one over a few weeks!

    Yes, I understand that. But The screen issue is not a result of user damage. The phone was not dropped when the screen got cracked. My daughter was standing in a chair at the table and dropped one of her toys onto the bottom of the phone and cracked it right by the home button. (Nowhere near the LCD/digitizer flex cables, connections, or logic board components) then a few months later my phone had died, I plugged it in, it showed it was charging, then Apple logo disappeared and screen didn't work. AFTER contacting Apple about the issue and them telling me that it "is a result of the very minimal crack to the sheet of glass that has no relation to the LCD or Digitizer and that the warranty does not cover it I had taken it upon myself to change the LCD/digitizer to no avail, as well as backlight ic and backlight coil to no avail. But how do I go about letting Apple know that it is in fact NOT due to the cracked screen nor is it due to the flex cable connections? I can't. So the lady that works the call center phones  trying to "convince" me that she knows what she is talking about and "convince" me that it is from the cracked screen I have to take her word because I can't show Apple that its not because of that without paying them $199 to fix the screen in which case they will just send me a new phone rather than fix the faulty hardware under warranty.

    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.                        
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings        
    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
    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 most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    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.

  • When i hit the home button on any particular page, the home page appears on the bar, but it just sits there, doing nothing with a blank screen....

    when i activate a web page from the home netzero homepage, and then try to go back to the home page by way of the home button, nothing happens. The status bar says it is trying to go there, but the screen is totally blank white and just sitting there. this happens no matter where i activate a page from, the home button just does not work. thank you in advance for any input .

    Verify that the battery is charged (connect to the supplied charger & cable for a couple of hours).
    Reset your device:
    Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
    1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
    2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
    3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

  • When I double clicked the home button my screen changed to what looks almost like a picture negative (muted colouring) I turned it off and on but noo luck. How do I get back to my usual screen colours? Thanks for your help!).

    First time using the Apple Support Community. Trying to reset my screen so colors don't look like what can only be described as a picture negative. I recall double clicking the home button when this happened before but as that didn't work  this time would be grateful for some help. Many thanks!

    So when you triple tap the home button then it goes to negative colors, it is simple to go back. All you have to do is triple tab the home button again and it will go back if it doesnt then, go to Settings>General>Accessibility>And then switch off Invert Colors

  • Is there a way to keep the screen from lighting up every time an email comes in, but still be able to see the email on the lock screen when you press the home button?

    Is there a way to keep the screen from lighting up everytime an email comes in, but still be able to see the email on the lock screen when you press the home button?  This is killing my battery, but also is kinda the whole point of the notification center in my mind.

    This is something I've been wondering. I am a bit like you, I like being able to have a glance at emails or Facebook updates without having to log in, and I think it would be great to be able to turn off the notification switching the screen on, especially for emails as I do get a lot, and Facebook, but I somehow doubt it is possible.
    I am currently monitoring how much this eats up my battery charge. On a normal day, after an overnight charge, I would probably still have 30%-40% left when I leave work in the evening. Today, I was down to 48% by lunchtime, where I've usually got a good 60-70% left... Might have to turn email notifications off on lock screen until it's possible to have them appearing in the list without flashing me...

  • HT4061 My screen will not turn on at all. But i can still hear sounds from when i would hit the home button. How could i get my iPhone to turn on?

    The screen to my phone will not turn on at all. I could hear the sound it makes when I do press on the home button. But the screen is not and will not respond and turn on. I plugged it in the charger to see if it'll do anything, but that didnt do anything. So I plugged it in the charger to my computer and even that didnt help with the situation. So how can I get my screen to turn on?

    See Here for  >  Frozen or unresponsive iPhone
    Try this First...
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...
