Why can't I log in to my iTunes account (iPod Touch)? Whenever I put in the password it refreshes and keeps prompting me - it doesn't say it is incorrect, it just refreshes it.

I just bought an iTunes card and was eager to redeem it. My iPod prompted me to log in as usual, but when I put in the correct password it just kept prompting me again. I've tried putting in my password to log in but it won't allow me to get into my account, rather it just refreshes and prompts me, and I've been doing this about ten times before I gave up. My internet connection is fine and all else is running smoothly.
And no, it isn't the incorrect password. I have tried putting in an alternative password to check, before refreshing it said it was incorrect.
With the correct password it'll just keep prompting me over and over so I cannot get in. This is really annoying and I don't know what to do as this hasn't happened before.
If anyone knows what is going on please inform me.
(Also: I cannot sync my iPod into any computers at the moment. I lost the previous computer and if I synced it with the new one I would lose everything on it, and some information on there is dear to me such as photos and videos. That is if I had a choice - computers with iTunes don't seem to recognise it as an iPod device, rather a camera which I can't take anything off of.
This is another problem on its own, though.)

Have you tried going to Settings>iTunes and App Stores (or just Store) and signing out and then signing in again?

    I have tried to log into my old account in itunes, but it won't let me.
    What do I do?

    I found the answer that works for me. (This information was not on Apple's website for troubleshooting this problem.)
    In Safari, (I use Firefox only) cookies must be enabled.  I never knew there was a connection between iTunes and Safari until now.

    Just connect it to a computer's USB port.
    Most wall chargers are dual voltage (110- 220 volts) and only require a plug adopter. Check the wall charger to see if yours is.

  • HT204070 my new Ipod touch 5 won't accept the password to my wifi.  I've been trying for an hour. retyping, checking the password on the router and retyping again.  can someone help?

    I agree with the Thomas, in that I think you have mucked up your settings in the AOL account. Your username should be something like - [email protected] Your password is whatever you use as the password.
    You could try deleting the account and start over again. Here is a link to a "how to set up AOL email " on the iPad. It is  4 or 5 step process and just make sure that you are entering the correct information in the correct fields in the set up. Among my 4 email accounts on my iPad, I have 2 AOL accounts. I have no problems at  all and it was really very easy to set up. There is no reason why AOL email should not work on your iPad.
    To repeat and emphasize - Just make sure that you are entering the correct information in the appropriate fields as I think that's where you are making your mistakes.
    If I had my choice, I would probably chuck the AOL accounts as well, but I have all the spam filters set as high as I can on the server, and it has cut down tremendously on the spam. Unfortunately - we set up AOL accounts at my workplace years ago and I really hesitate to change them now, so I continue on with these, but like I said, they work fine and they were very easy to set up.

  • HT1918 why do i have to create a new itunes account because I moved to Canada from the U.S.?

    why do i have to create a new itunes account because I moved to Canada from the U.S.?( My current account won't let me change my address to canada so my billing address for account is incorrect, making it impossible for me to buy anything). Will it affect what I am able to put on my device i.e. already downloaded apps, music, etc?

  • How can you get your ipod touch open when you forgot the password and its disabled and not connected to wifi

    How can you get your iPod touch open when you forgot the password and its disabled and not connected to the Internet Connection and you don't want to reset it.

    Disabled
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
    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.

  • HT1212 my ipod touch is locked, i know the password although then i go to enter it nothing happens its as if the touch  screen isnt working, is there any way i can repoot the factry setting completely?

    My ipod touch is locked, i know the password although when i go to  enter it nothing happens it as if the touch screen isnt working, i have held down the power and home button to reset it, it works for a second then stops working again. is there anyway i can completely reset the factory settings

    Try the remaining items of:
    - 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.

  • Why can't I log-in to my Apple account from my IPhone or desktop

    This post has nothing to do with operating/understanding my IPhone. Rather,it's about my Apple ID.
    I've been trying since "time immemorial" to log-in to my Apple account from my desktop and IPhone. Impossible. Everytime I try from my desktop, it says the ID or password is incorrect. When the Sign-in page opens, my default email is already there. When I type in a password, it always says the ID or password is incorrect. If I click on Forgot Password, the next page show Email and Answer security question options to reset the password. I've selected the Email option about 6-7 times in the last 24-36 hours. So far, I've not received an email with instructions on resetting my pasword. Nothing in my spam folder either. If I select the security question option, the next page comes-up and says Your session has timed-out. Try again. A couple of times, it took me to the two security questions, I answered them and it says the info doesn't match what Apple has.
    If I click on Create an account, as soon as I enter my ID (email address), it says that ID is already in use. If that is so, WHY am I not receiving the emails, on how to reset my password, that Apple supposedly has sent?
    I've also tried to log-in to the ITunes store, from my IPhone, to download a free app and I get the same thing - ID or password incorret. I managed to be able to log-in to the ITunes store from my desktop without any problems.
    What I'd like to know is, what in h___ do I have to do to be able to log-in to my Apple account from my desktop and IPhone?
    I'm at the point that I'm going to just get rid of my IPhone and go to Samsung. I'm sure I would get better service, support wise, from them.
    Any suggestions appreciated.
    BTW FYI I had to create an entirely new id/password in order to be able to get into this forum.

    Hi
    Thanks for the replies.
    Sorry I did mean to say Hub I know about the Hub working without being logged in its just that:
    A) when I contacted BT (last Friday) they said that the order had not completed yet.
    B) Because of logistics I needed to set up the wifi as soon as I could (its a long story) and something told me to get registered before I tried the Hub in case I had a problem getting connected.
    I have tried to contact BT again today and have been on "HOLD" for at least 2 hours finally when I got speak to someone I was told he would have to connect me to a colleague then put me on "HOLD" for 15 minutes then when I was connected to his colleague after telling him all the problems I was cut of I thought that the guy would have had the decency to phone me back but NO so I had to go through all the rigmarole of waiting to try and speak to someone again after being on "HOLD" for 45 minutes I spoke to a lady who said that the problem had been passed to the technical team and that the gentleman I spoke to on Friday should have told me 2 working days and not 48 hours.
    The nice Lady said that I should hear something tomorrow (Tuesday) personally I am not taking any bets on it.
    Why do these company's like BT promise the Earth and deliver nothing if some one from BT had the decency to return a call and say sorry the problem is being looked into I could have accepted that.
    Had a problem with BT in the past when a unknown trailer became dislodged from the towing vehicle the trailer then felled the Telegraph pole carrying our line when we contacted BT to report the "fault" they said they would run a check on the line, they then said the line was working fine and that there was no problem???
    Had to wait 28 days for the pole to be replaced.
    DS I will go with your idea and send the details to the modarators.
    Regards

  • Why can't I download music for 90 days on iPod touch?

    I tried to download music for my iPod touch but it said that it was already associated with an iTunes account. And that I have to wait for 90 days to download my purchases that I want to get again.
