3rd gen iTouch is disabled and can't connect to iTunes! HELP!!

My 3rd gen iPod Touch is disabled and says to connect to iTunes, but when I connect I receive a message saying iTunes is unable to connect to my iPod because it is locked and has to be unlocked to connect. I can't connect if it's not unlocked, but I can't unlock it until it connects. What do I do? Taking it to the Apple Store is a last resort, and I can't connect it to iTunes.

Did you try connecting it in recovery mode as described in this article?

  • IPod Touch disabled and can't connect to iTunes?

    My iPod touch 4th gen has been fully disabled so that it says 'connect to iTunes'. But when I do that, it says I need to unlock my iPod first, which I can't do because my iPod is disabled. What do I do? Also, I don't want to restore my iPod because I don't have some data backed up. Thanks.

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased. You have no other choise. In the future make sure you frequently backup your iPod.

    HI,
    Can anyone help? My iPod touch is displaying a message " iPod disabled, connect to iTunes". When I try to connect to iTunes I get an error message "iTunes cannot connect this iPhone because of an unknown error 0xE8000065". Does anyone know what I need to do?
    Thanks,

    Hello,
    I'am not 100% sure about your problem, but a few things are needed to know what happened. One, did you hack or jeilbreak your device? If yes then you pretty much got brickwd. If not, then did you try to put your iPod in DFU mode and then restore? (DFU - Power+Home button for 10 seconds HOLD, and then home for another 10 seconds.) Hope this helps, though I'amnot sure about the cause.
    Best Regards

As suggested in another dicussion I have tried unplugging the USB and holding the home button on the iPad for 10 seconds and then replugging the iPad into the computer but my computer says itunes could not connect to the iPad because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter the passcode on the iPad before it can be used with itunes.
    Please help....

    Recovery Mode:
    1. Turn off iPad
    2. Connect USB cable to computer; leave the other end alone
    3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
    5. Release the Home button
    6. Open iTune
    7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
    8. Use iTune to restore iPad
    Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad
