Why is my ipod blocked

I cannot sync my ipod to itunes it says enter passcode on ipod but my ipod wont let me put in a passcode without syncing it to i tunes

Place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore the iPod via iTunes.  For recovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

  • Why did my ipod block its self

    ok heres the deal i put a new passcode and i turned off my ipod and put my new passcode and it worked so then i put it to charge and when i wanted to use it i put the passcode but guess what it wouldn't let me. Thats how my ipod blocked its self.

    If you do not know the passcode, you will have to place the iPod in recovery mode in order to restore it.  For recovery mode see:

  • [b]My Ipod blocked during Marathon and all data were lost[/b]

    Hello.
    I was running Marathon de Paris on last Sunday. I used my Nike + kit connected with my Ipod 3rd generation like I do everytime I run.
    Everything was working normally until I reach 34th km. At the end of one track in my play list, my Ipod blocked. There was no sound at all (no music) except comments about distance till 22nd mile (then complete silence). For the 4 last miles, I didn't get any information about my race. Ipod was completely blocked and I could'nt unblock it with any manipulation. I kept it working till I cross final line and then I tried to understand what it could be. Ipod screen was frozen, showing fixed distance (I don't remember which one). I decided to restart my Ipod and when I checked what was my last race, I could only see data from my previous one. All informations about Marathon were cancelled.
    This problem already happened sometimes but I couldn't admit it could happen for this race. My Ipod was placed inside official Nike+ armband. There was fogging drops inside, like everytime I run.
    Why this happened and how can I avoid this problem fornext races ?

    It started again today after a 20 km race. Only angry !!!

  • Why did my ipod receive a song separate from the album that was downloaded

    why did my ipod receive a  song separate fron the album that it was downloaded with?
    i copied a cd using itunes

    Dont have that problem but i have two tips:
    1 Other ipod/iphone apps: they are often the problem, i had an alarm clock and that blocked the whole ipod app, so check if other apps dont use songs to wake up or anything else..
    2 try to leave the ipod app trough the multitasking instead of pressing the home button?

  • Why is my Ipod Touch no longer recognised by my computer. I have Vista

    Why is my Ipod touch no longer recognised by my computer? please.

    See:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    I would start with
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    If you  have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar.  Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears.

  • How do i synch my pdf/books to my library. I was able to synch my ipod touch purchases by transferring them but can't figure out how to do my pdfs. Also why is my ipod picture greyed out-the one that lets my move the icons around.

    How do i synch my pdf/books to my Itunes  library. I was able to synch my ipod touch app purchases by transferring them but can't figure out how to do my pdfs. Also why is my ipod picture greyed out-the one that lets my move the icons around.
    I am afraid if i don't get the pdfs into my book library, i will lose them when i update to IOS 5-is that true?

    thank you-i have to check into the authorization and the account-i gave my husband my old ipod when i updated last year so both at one time have been on this computer but as it stands, it only comes up with my device when i plug into Itunes.
    i don't think i have any restrictions for installing apps although my normal way of doing it is to download from the ipod touch. i did find that all i had to do was right click on my device name and got the message to transfer my apps and then they showed up in my library. Also when i clicked the synch checkbox i was able to view the ipod touch picture without it being greyed out. after all that i was able toupdate to IOS 5 successfully except my videos and podcast, and pdfs  did not come over. This confuses me since i had dragged them over to my library to make sure that i had everything in my library and on my device. Not a big problem, since i just dragged them in itunes from my library to my device but sometimes i wonder if i understand the big picture:)

  • Why does Firefox always block any link I try to open going to a web page when I don't have pop up blocker on?

    Why does Firefox always block any link I try to open going to a web page when I don't have pop up blocker on? First off they are not even pop ups....your crap blocks everything and don't save user names &/or passwords when you have it checked. Also in your tutorials about solving this issue says it has the word "OPTION" .......no, it never says option to allow you to bypass it and etc. Only thing is says is "ALLOW" . That would be nice , but the problem is it will not allow it from then on. It only allows it right then and then you have to refresh...after that to open again it blocks it again.....HOW STUPID?!!!!!
    It always say that this is preventing this page from automatically redirecting to another page. THIS IS WHAT I AM TRYING TO DO...GO TO ANOTHER PAGE........I DON'T NEED YOUr BROWSERS PERMISSION TO DO THAT. THAT IS WHAT A *%#$&*(&*%$$%% BROWSER IS FOR TO GO TO OTHER PAGES......THEY ARE NOT POP UPS!!!!!
    YOU STUPID BROWSER ACTUALLY BLOCKS EVERYTHING AND THAT SUX!!!
    HELP!!

  • Why is my iPod Touch now repeating songs once in the Bose Dock?

    Why is my iPod Touch now repeating songs once in the Bose Dock?  How do I get this to stop?  I have already done a factory restore and then reloaded my music onto this iPod. 

    I had this problem after upgrading to iOS4, but didn't discover it until I got to the gym and went to start my workout! No music (except the stuff they play at the gym) meant a short workout for me!
    I figure that the glitch comes from the fact that when you upgrade to iOS4 iTunes takes a backup of your iPod, does the firmware update and then puts the backed up content back on, I'm thinking that there are some subtle differences between iOS3 and iOS4 that cause confusion.
    THE FIX! I have found that the best fix (in fact the best course of action) is to restore the iPod from iTunes (just hook it up and hit the "Restore" button and tell iTunes to treat it as a new iPod. Then just re-sync all your content and it should work perfectly. It is a much easier way of getting your iPod updated without as many glitches.
    HTH!!

  • Why is my ipod touch not letting me on the wifi when I have the pssword and it is the first time I put it in

    Why is my ipod doing this please help me

    Does the iPod connect to other networks?
    Does the iPod see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - 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.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - 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.

  • Why is my iPod Touch 5 removing songs I have synched? Plenty memory space

    Why is my iPod Touch 5 removing songs I have synched? Plenty memory space. It seems to be deleting tracks which I can then download from iCloud (if there is wifi) but I dont want that

    Seems like you have the incorrect sync settings

  • Why would my iPod show a full battery when connected to power but when not connected it will no longer turn on

    Why would my iPod show a full battery when connected to power but when not connected it will no longer turn on

    For both
    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.

    Periodically double click the home button and close all the apps in the recently used dock. Then power off and then back on the iPod. This frees up memory. The 4G only has 256 MB of memory.
    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.
    - Restore from backup. See:

    - 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.
