Why is my Ipod Disabled for 22,739,188?

My Ipod has had charging issues since the first day I got it.  It charges one day and then the next it won't charge no matter what I connect it to.  docking station, wall charger or connecting to the computer do not work.  Now whenI plugged it in last night to charge, there is a message on the sscreen that it has been disabled for 22,739,188 minutes. Help!

    As long as the apps are still available in the store, and you use the same iTunes account as you originally used to buy them, then you should be able to re-download them for free, and if you are in a country where you can re-download music then you should be able to re-download them as well : what you can re-download for free will appear under the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes

    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.

  • Why Won't IPod Organize For Me?

    Okay. I had to install Itunes on a new HDD I just put in. When I did, my library was lost. I reinstalled it and put all my songs back onto it.
    In itunes, the songs come up in the proper order, but, on the Ipod, they aren't. A lot of the albums are disorganized. I looked at the properties of the songs and they are properly numbered. I've removed the tracks and re added them. Again, in itunes they are in the right spot, but not on Ipod. I've uninstalled and reinstalled Itunes. I've restored Ipod to factory settings. I've deleted entire library and loaded it up again (both before and after restore.)
    I'm lost as t why it's doing this and it's very annoying. Anyone have any idea as to why? (I doubt I'll get help here…cause I never do...)
    Ipod is a 60 GB Vid...if it matters..

    The Ipod is a 60GB video Ipod.
    That FAQ didn't seem to have what I needed in it. Unless I missed it, I'll check again.
    Again, it worked fine until I had to reinstall itunes. Now, it'll put all the artists together, and the songs in the proper albums. But in the wrong order, but only certain songs.
    Example: for the album by Stone Sour - Come What(Ever) May there is a song "Socio" which is the ninth track on the album. The track number in the file properties lists it as "9". But, on my ipod it comes up as the first song. Then, all the songs after Socio are in the correct order. This is the case with nearly half of the albums on my ipod. Some with more than one song, but same principal...

  • Ipod disabled for 43 years?!

    went to use my ipod and it's telling me that it's disbled, try again in 22,975,210 minutes!!!!  If I'm calculating correctly, that's approximately 43 years.  Don't know how this happened.  Tried to shut off/on, tried to reset by holding down both buttons.  Is this a joke?

  • Why are auto-renewals disabled for Israel? (look at ht4098)

    Guys/Apple
      Once again, Israel is singled out, but this time it is particularly strange:
    I wanted to subscribe to the iPad version of the New Yorker magazine (which is quite a nice app), but trying to do so, got me a popup on the iPad saying that auto-renewals are disabled in my "storefront".
    Looking at the Apple Support side, I found this KB article.   (ht4098)
    It says, specifically, that auto-renewal is not supported for Israel.
    Why is that? There is no problem purchasing from the Israeli App store, nor there is a problem purchasing individual issues of The New Yorker via their app...
    There is absolutely no problem with Israeli credit cards, since Paypal, for example, perfectly supports renewals (and so does WorldPay, etc...)
    So what's the reason Israel is so singled-out in THIS instance?
    (BTW, obviously I got no relevant replies from Apple Suport and the support of The New Yorker are understandably not at fault here).
    Thanks!
    Michael.

  • Why isnt my ipod eligible for recovery?

    Today while in the car with my mother, my Ipod was working fine. I brought it into the house and put it in the pockettof my pants for about 2 minutes. When I took it out, my touch screen wouldn't repond. I tried holing the home button and the hold button. It went to the "slide to power off screen" but still, the touch screen would'nt respond. I hooked it up to Itunes in hopes of restoring it, and it said my ipod was not eligible for restoration. The screen has not change from the "power off" and will not go off. Please help!

  • Why does my iPod ask for a activation from my old Apple ID?

    I got a new charger for my iPod and it was stuck in a recovery loop, and now when I restored it it asks for my little brothers Apple ID and we don't know what it is.
    Please don't say useless stuff like oh you can't do it

    That is the activation- lock anti-theft feature

    Restore...
    Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely.  Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.
    Of course, you can always wait for 22,051,536 minutes!

  • My ipod 4th generation says its disabled for 22,634,432 minutes, i just found it and put it on charge any help?

    i lost it for a while then found it this morning and i put it on charge while i was at schoo and i came home to it saying "ipod disabled for 22,634,432 minutes" and i want to know if i have to wait for it to be over or there is a way to fix it! i need help!!!

    Restore, if iTunes will let you.  Everything except the password will be restored.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  Be forewarned that it takes a long time.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • IPod disabled and home button broken

    I have an iPod touch (4th generation) which I forgot the password of. I kept trying it and finally after like 4 "iPod disabled for 60 minute" screens it says "iPod disabled please connect to iTunes" Which doesn't work because it says enter in a password. I've read online putting your iPod touch into DFU mode and connecting to iTunes and it will detect it and you will be able to restore. Which doesn't work because my iPod touch doesn't have a functioning home button. I've tried some apps that force your iPod into DFU mode such as Recboot and Redsn0w. Which don't work. Recboot just errors me and Redsn0w says it only supports A5 devices and higher (My 4th gen iPod has A4 processor) Please help and thanks a lot to whoever answers.
    TL ; DR : HOW DO I RESTORE MY IPOD TOUCH WITH A BROKEN HOME BUTTON WITHOUT USING ITUNES, FIND MY IPHONE, REDSN0W, OR RECBOOT?!???

    Sorry that I forgot it

  • Why does my IPod shuffle stop after a few hours playing on shuffle when it should go for days?

    Why does my IPod stop playing after a few hours on shuffle when it should play for days?

    A few possibilities...  (Each numbered item is a separate thing to check or try.)
    (1) What does the shuffle's light do when you connect it to USB?
    (2) If the docking cable plug is not fully inserted, it may not have a good connection for charging.  Make sure the docking cable plug is fully inserted into the shuffle's headphones jack, as shown in this document
    iPod shuffle (4th generation): Not seen in iTunes
    (3) If there are other USB devices connected to your computer at the same time, try disconnecting other devices (including USB hub) so that the shuffle is the only device connected to a direct USB port, to see if that makes a difference (you can leave standard USB keyboard/mouse connected if used).
    (4) If you have a USB power adapter (such as from an iPhone, iPad, or other device), that plugs into the wall outlet, as a test, connect the shuffle's docking cable to the adapter and connect the shuffle.  Does it change from a power adapter?
    (5) Some newer Windows PCs (if you use Windows and not a Mac) may have a "feature" that shuts off full power to the USB port when a connected storage device is no longer mounted by the system.  An iPod is a storage device, and after syncing, iTunes unmounts the iPod's disk (if you are using automatic syncing).  If Windows shuts off full power to the USB port, the battery cannot charge.  To see if this is the problem, does the iPod appear in iTunes when it is connected, even though the battery is not charging?  If it does, select the iPod in iTunes so that you see its Summary screen.  There is an option (checkbox) there for Enable disk use.  If it's not already checked, check that box and Apply.  Enabling disk use keeps the iPod's disk mounted continuously, so Windows will keep the USB port at full power (and the battery will charge).  If the iPod now charges, there may be a way to disable this "energy saver" feature in Control Panels, so that you can turn OFF Enable disk use.  NOTE:  When Enable disk use is turned ON, you need to Eject the iPod in iTunes before physically disconnecting it.
