Ipod Updated and now it says my passcode and password wont work, my info is correct last night around midnight i was on youtube then all of a sudden my ipod stops working and shows a Hello screen, same screen you see when you get a new ipod or update, I think it updated to ios 15.5. I've had this ipod for over a year now. I don't even recall having my ipod on automatic updates, so this happened out of the blue. It asked to sign in or to use passcode. i tried to sign in and it says wrong id/password, but my info is correct. I then tried my passcode to my ipod and it said that is also incorrect, but my code is correct. Then when those didn't work it sent me to a screen that said this: "unable to activate" "your ipod touch could not be activated because the activation server cannot be reached. Try connecting your ipod touch to a mac or to a pc with Itunes to activate it, or try again in a couple of minutes." i pressed try using wi-fi and that doesn't work. i tried pressing "try again" and it was connected to Itunes and that didn't work. My itunes works, its connected to my account but my ipod wont connect. i'm not sure what to do at this point besides go to the apple people and see what they can do, i don't want to reset my ipod, i have stuff on there that i don't want to lose. Help?

Can't activate my Ipod touch 6th gen I m a dental assistant and i have a laser unit working with ipod touch 6th generation. Someone tried multiple wrong passcodes and it was disabled. I contacted a software engineer and he made a reset but now it is not activating with my first apple id. It was purchased in 2015 and was supplied with that machine. Now without this ipod and software, my unit is not working. So keeping the above in view is this possible to activate my ipod with previous apple id even i just forgot about security answers also because that id was created for me by the supplier of that machine.

Hi Dekaston,

We're not quite sure what you're referring to, as an iPod touch generally doesn't require activation like an iPhone would. For now, we'd recommend following Turn on and set up iPod touch - Apple Support

If you've done that and still have issues, you can reach out to Apple here: Get Support

Cheers.
