iPod won't go into DFU mode.

Hi, I am trying to reset my daughter iPod since it is disabled, but the iPod won’t go into DFU mode. I’ve tried connecting it to iTunes but it won’t read it.

Just want to double check you’re following the right instructions:

  1. Connect the device to a computer using a USB cable.
  2. Hold down both the Home button and Lock button.
  3. After 8 seconds, release the Lock button while continuing to hold down the Home button.
    • If the Apple logo appears, the Lock button was held down for too long.
  4. Nothing will be displayed on the screen when the device is in DFU mode. If open, iTunes will alert you that a device was detected in recovery mode.
    • If your device shows a screen telling you to connect the device to iTunes, retry these steps.

I assume you’ve already tried the soft reset, and let go of power when you see the Apple while holding home button? This should have you go into DFU.

Yes. I’ve been looking up video on how to properly do it as well, yet the iPod hasn’t gone into dfu mode.

Wow, not sure with that one. Maybe try 3U Tools and see if you can get to it from there. Cool software

Download recboot software that would help.

I had the same problem too! What fixed it for me was using a USB - A to Lightning cable instead of the USB - C one. It worked first try after that.
