Disabled iPod touch
If iPod touch is disabled because you forgot your passcode or entered an incorrect passcode too
many times, you can restore iPod touch from an iTunes or iCloud backup and reset the passcode.
Restoring erases the content and settings on iPod touch, but uses a backup to replace your data and
settings. For more information, see
Restore iPod touch on page 156 and Back up iPod touch , below.
If you get a message in iTunes that iPod touch is locked and you must enter a passcode, see
support.apple.com/kb/HT1212 .
VPN settings
A VPN (virtual private network) provides secure access over the Internet to private networks,
such as the network at your organization. You may need to install a VPN app from the App Store
that configures your iPod touch to access a network. Contact your system administrator for
information about the app and settings you need.
Profiles settings
Configuration profiles define settings for using iPod touch with corporate or school networks or
accounts. You might be asked to install a configuration profile that was sent to you in an email,
or one that is downloaded from a webpage. iPod touch asks for your permission to install the
profile, and displays information about what it contains, when you open the file. You can see
the profiles you have installed in Settings > General > Profiles. If you delete a profile, all of the
settings, apps, and data associated with the profile are also deleted.
Back up iPod touch
You can use iCloud or iTunes to automatically back up iPod touch. If you choose to back up using
iCloud, you can’t also use iTunes to automatically back up to your computer, but you can use
iTunes to manually back up to your computer. iCloud backs up iPod touch daily over Wi-Fi, when
it’s connected to a power source and is locked. The date and time of the last backup is listed at
the bottom of the Storage & Backup screen.
