  • HT1212 Why is my iPod touch is locked for 22,227,674 minutes?

    I do not know how this happened because I was not the one to lock it, if someone locked it. I've tried to hard reset it but it will not do one, I've turned it off and on plenty of times, and it has died and been charged plenty of times. How did this happen? How do I fix this problem? How do I prevent it from happening again? Will my stuff be backed up? Will it delete if this is fixed? Please help.

    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.

    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 most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        

  • Can apple fix my iPod touch 4g lock button, or only 3rd party?

    For a while now my lock button has been COMPLETELY jammed in; any companies that can fix it (cheaply) hoping it will increase the resale value a bit

    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

  • IPod Touch 4G Power Button Stuck/Spring Broken?

    in other post i accidently said the home button was broken, but it's the home button sorry, for real it's the power button so ima correct it now . However i can't lock my ipod and even power it off is it broken or it's stuck i'm using Assistive Touch will Apple replace it (I Have No Warrenty Though)?

    - If Apple can't easily fix it (unjam), they will exchange it for a refurbished one for this price. I would make an appointment at their Genius Bar of an Apple store and hear what they have to say.
    - Have you looked at the previous discussions listed on the right side of this page under the heading "More Like This".

  • My iPod touch 4th gen is stuck in recovery mode with a broken 'lock' button.

    My iPod touch 4th generation is stuck in recovery mode with a black screen and I can't get it out. It has a broken lock button and I have tried everything to get it out of recovery mode. Every time I plug it into iTunes, it recognises my iPod and says 'iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode. You must restore this iPod before it can be used in iTunes, so I have restored it several times and every time, it says there is an unknown error. Please Help!! (my iPod is IOS 6.0.1)

    What is the complete wording of the error message that says unknown error? Usually more information like a error number is also given.

  • Why is my ipod touch locked for 21,854,788 minutes?

    my friend was screwing around with my ipod touch and locked it for 15 minutes, or so he said. but then my ipod died and when i charged it it told me it would be unlocked after the time stated in the title, wich after doing the math equells out to around 40 years (if i did my math right and i think i did)  but i just recently got around to trying to reset it but that has not worked either so what should i do? go to the apple store to get it fixed or smash this thing and buy a new one?

  • 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!!
