For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

How to unlock iPod touch 4th gen, without losing data?

So, I'm locked out of my 4th Gen iPod touch. I've been searching for a way to unlock it, since I was pranked and the person who pranked me forgot what they changed the password to, and I'm never going to be able to guess it. I would just use the features in Find My Ipod, but I'm stuck in airplane mode, so it doesn't work.
Short of resetting or jailbreaking, I couldn't find any way to get it unlocked. I'm hesitant to reset, because I have data(such as DLC from discontinued apps) that I won't be able to get back if I wipe and reset. As far as I can tell, the iTunes backup/restore thing doesn't back up the apps or save data from the apps, or at least I haven't seen anything definitive that says so. Jailbreaking I don't think I could do if I wanted to, since from what I've seen I'd need a firmware number that I can't get to.
So, is there any way to either disconnect from airplane mode, or reset the password while I'm locked out, without resetting? I don't want to reset unless there's no other way.
Also I'm running iOS 5.1.1 if that makes a difference. Thanks!

You have to place the iPod in either Recovery mode or DFU mode and restore the the iPod. That erases the iPod. That is how this security feature uses.
However, you may be able get some info off the restored iPod by:

TS3694 how to unlock ipod if forgot passcode

my son forgot his passcode and now i cant unlocked it

If You Are Locked Out Or Have Forgotten Your Passcode
iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
iOS- Understanding passcodes
     If you have forgotten your Restrictions code, then follow the instructions
     below but DO NOT restore any previous backup. If you do then you will
     simply be restoring the old Restrictions code you have forgotten. This
     same warning applies if you need to restore a clean system.
A Complete Guide to Restore or Recover Your iDevice (if You Forget Your Passcode)
If you need to restore your device or ff you cannot remember the passcode, then you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and re-sync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
Before restoring your iOS device, Apple recommends that you either sync with iTunes to transfer any purchases you have made, or back up new data (data acquired after your last sync). If you have movie rentals on the device, see iTunes Store movie rental usage rights in the United States before restoring.
Follow these steps to restore your device:
     1. Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes before attempting to update.
     2. Connect your device to your computer.
     3. Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
     4. Select the Summary tab.
     5. Select the Restore option.
     6. When prompted to back up your settings before restoring, select the Back Up
         option (see in the image below). If you have just backed up the device, it is not
         necessary to create another.
     7. Select the Restore option when iTunes prompts you (as long as you've backed up,
         you should not have to worry about restoring your iOS device).
     8. When the restore process has completed, the device restarts and displays the Apple
         logo while starting up:
           After a restore, the iOS device displays the "Connect to iTunes" screen. For updating
          to iOS 5 or later, follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. For earlier versions of
          iOS, keep your device connected until the "Connect to iTunes" screen goes away or
          you see "iPhone is activated."
     9. The final step is to restore your device from a previous backup.
If you can not restore your device then you will need to go to recovery mode.
Placing your device into recovery mode:
Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
     1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the other end
         of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
     2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the
         red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
          If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake
          and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake
          and Home buttons.
     3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device.
         The device should turn on. Note: If you see the screen pictured below, let the device
         charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then
         start with step 2 again.
     4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
         When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
     5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
     6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Additional Information:
Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

How to unlock ipod touch 5 with out apple id or pw

My brother had bought me an ipod touch 5 online from some guy , however I haven't been unable to get on it because I need the apple id and pw of the previous owner . So then my brother texts the guy he bought it from for the pw or if he could turn off his icloud so that we would be able to get on and the guy says he would give us the pw he just has to find it but he never got back to us and we have asked multiple times . Now we are starting to think he stole it and sold it to us . However we did pay good money for this ipod is there anyways I could get on it or contact the original owner and talk to them about what has happened so that I can finally use the ipod ?

No. This is how Activation Lock works, to prevent un-authorize access. You need the correct credential from the previous owner to switch it off.
There's nothing we or Apple can do.
