Resoring my ipod, got message "could not sign in, could not connect to server"

Hi drewfromrochester,

Thanks for contributing to the Apple Support Communities.

It appears that you're restoring your iPod touch, but see an error message in iTunes.

If the error message has a corresponding error number, you can find specific troubleshooting steps at this link:

Resolve iOS update and restore errors - Apple Support

If you're using iTunes for Windows to restore your iPod touch, see the steps in this article:

iTunes for Windows: iTunes can't contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server - Apple Support

All the best,

Jeremy
