If you hav not syned the iPod to a computer after you setup the screen-lock passcode then the only way to regain use of the iPod is to place the iPod in recovery mode (which erases the iPod) and restore via iTunes.
You can try connecting the iPod to your computer and making a backup
iOS: How to back up
iTunes and passcode-protected iOS devices
If an iOS device is protected with a passcode, iTunes prompts you to enter the passcode when you connect to your computer. Once you successfully enter the passcode, iTunes will recognize that device as authorized and you will not need your passcode to back up or sync.

Go to http://iforgot.apple.com and sign in with your iCloud login. A new password will be sent to your associated email address. If this doesn't work you will have to contact Support. Go to https://getsupport.apple.com. Click' See all products and services', then 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID', then 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Lost or forgotten Apple ID password'.

Can't remember screen lock password

can't remember screen lock password!

If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync 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.
You may have to force iPad into Recovery Mode

HT1212 My daughter changed her passcode and can't remember it. We had not done a back-up in a while so I'm not sure what to do. Should I restore the factory settings?

Is your phone signed into an old iCloud ID ("email address") and you need to change it to your current ID? Is so, there is a way around this.
Otherwise, you can either try resetting your password at https://iforgot.apple.com or by contacting Apple for assistance by going to https://expresslane.apple.com, then click More Products and Services>Apple ID>Other Apple ID Topics>Lost or forgotten Apple ID password, or you can back up your phone to your computer instead. To do this, connect your phone to your computer, open iTunes and go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases. Then go to File>Devices>Back Up.

How do I transfer all the information in my iTunes on my old mac book to my new mac book pro so I can sync my devices to the new machine with erasing all the data my iPhone and iPad?

I have just bought a new mac book pro and want to use this machine as the main computer to which I will sync my iPhone and iPad.
How do I transfer the information within iTunes on my old mac book so when I connect the devices the new machine will not erase all my data?
Thank you

Copy the entire iTunes folder within the music folder on your old Mac to the music folder on your new Mac.
You can use an external hard disc for the transfer, or you can connect the computers together using Firewire Target Disc Mode as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1661

I am going through a divorce and she has the computer. I'm trying to tranfer my music to a new computer but for about 100 songs its asking for her authorization password that I dont have. How can I get these songs transfered or can I?

It sounds like two Apple accounts were used in the purchase of songs, yours and hers. Assuming she won't give you her password, you're kinda stuck. For $129 or so you can repurchase them all.
By the way, if she has the computer and it has your account info in it, you ought to change your password.

My friend borrowed my old iPhone 4. I wanted to erase all the data but I dont have a password and my friend doesnt know his password. How can I erase the data without using a password?

My friend borrowed my iPhone. I want to sell the iPhone, but first I have to erase all the data that belong too my friend. I don't know his password and he doesn't know either. Is it possible to erase the data without using a password?
thanks!

You need the password if it is iCloud locked you won't be able to activate the phone for use.
As long as he remembers his email, you can reset the password
If you forgot your Apple ID password
or Forgot Apple ID
https://iforgot.apple.com/appleid
If it is a lock screen password, you can do a restore.
Hold down power and home for 10 seconds and release power but keep holding down home. iTunes will say your phone is in recovery mode so you can restore it.

The send a mm with my cloud code to actívate other device to a telephome o dont have. What can i doo

If everything else is connecting with no issues, I would go into the wifi setting on the iPad and redo the info there, user, password and anything else related to your wifi at your house.
It is possible whatever he reset may have reset something to default setting which will not allow it to connect. If you need too then verify the wifi setting by comparing it with another device setting that works on your home network.
Good luck
