You have to restore from recovery mode by following the steps in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212 and may need to do so more than once.  You will also have to restore from a backup to get your content and apps back.

    How do you unlock an ipod touch if you forgot the password?

    You can't. Type in the wrong password until, it says "Connect to iTunes". Then connect it to iTunes. You will wait 1 minute, five minutes, 15 minutes, then 60 minutes, then you can connect it to iTunes.

  • How do I open my iPod touch if I forgot my passcode. The tricky part is my iTunes is no longer connected to the computer I have.

    I just found my ipod from 2 years ago and I haven't the slightest clue as to what my passcode is. I did some research online and I saw that you can simply connect it to iTunes via computer. I recently updated my computer and I don't have access to that iTunes anymore. I'm not sure what to do

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

  • How do I unlock my ipod touch that shows a red disabled screen, and not been able to connect to the original computer it was sync to?

    How do I unlock my ipod touch showing a red ipod disabled connect to itunes, with the disadvantage of not having the original computer that my ipod was sync to?

    If you have a passcode to the screen lock that you've forgotten, you'll need to restore the iPod. Since you don't have the original computer, this will erase all the content on the iPod. For information and instructions, see:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
    If that will not work, you'll need to put the iPod into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:

    Restore...
    From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.
