How to reset iPod when it is locked up?

My daughter has entered the incorrect passcode too many times and now it is locked up. I have not synced it since she just got it. How do I reset it??

Yo have to place the iPod in recovery mode and conect it to her computer and restore via iTunes.  For recovery mode:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
If you do not have a backup you will have to restore to factory defaults/new iPod.  The restore erases your iPod.
You can redownload some iTunes purchases at no additional cost by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

    I just bought a 4th gen ipod from someone and I need to do a factory reset.  I have tried to reset but it needs a pass code and the girl I bought it from couldn't remember the code to reset.  How can I reset it myself without having to call tech support?

  • How to reset ipod touch 5th generation without using itunes

    I am locked out of my IPod touch 5th generation because my password was changed on me. It says my ipod is disabled and I need to connect to itunes. However, I can not get itunes where I am so I need to know how to reset my ipod without itunes.

    Only if:
    If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone and use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
    You can also wipe the iOS device by installing the FindMyiPhone app on another iOS device and using that app to wipe the device.
    otherise with a computer with iTunes and an interent connection
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
