HT201274 how to unlock ipod if you dont remember the password to unlock

my brother changed password on my ipod and now he dont remember the password and i cant get in

Restore, if iTunes will let you. Everything except the password will be restored. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. Be forewarned that it takes a long time. 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. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

Pleasee! I need help I cant unlock my iphone I dont remember the password of my apple ID and all the recovery options are not helpful

please I need help with my iphone 4S
I reset but I didnt mind that to unlock it I need to put my old ID apple and I really dont remember the password just the ID and I cant use my iphone if i dont put the right code.
All the options that apple gave me are not usefull i went to my apple store and they didnt help me with that what should i do?

If you can't remember the password for your old ID you can reset the password as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2617. If you can't reset the password yourself, you can contact the Apple account security team for your country for assistance: Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security. If your country isn't listed, you can contact iTunes store support by filling out this form: https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html.
Before doing any of that, make sure it's asking for your ID and not someone else's ID. It will require the ID that was used to activate the phone originally. If you aren't the original owner, only they can help. You have to either get the ID and password from them, or have them erase the phone and remove it from their account as explained here: Find My iPhone Activation Lock: Removing a device from a previous owner’s account so you can reactivate it using your own ID.

Connect in recovery mode and restore, you'll get the option to reset the passcode during this process:
iOS: Unable to update or restore and iPhone and iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
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. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.

Use the "Restore iPhone" button in iTunes on the last computer the phone was synced to. This will remove the passcode and restore your most recent backup. As described in the tip you were reading when you posted your message.

Hi, Carmen.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you need to reset you security questions, do not know the answers and no longer have access to that email account, see the last sentence under Note in step 5.
You'll be asked to answer 2 of your 3 security questions before you can make any modifications. If you are unable to remember your answers, you can choose to send an email to your rescue email to reset your security questions.
Note: The option to send an email to reset your security questions and answers will not be available if a rescue email address is not provided. You will need tocontact iTunes Store support in order to do so.

HT5661 how to actav ate your ipod if you dont kmow the previous owner

How do you actavate a Ipod if you you dont know the previous owner?

If you are talking about an iPod 5th generation with iOS 7, there is no way to activate the iPod without knowing the passcode or having the prior owner deactivate their Apple ID associated with the iPod. If you cannot return the iPod, you have purchase an expensive thin brick. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5818

I have an ipod touch and dont know the password and also no longer have the computer used to sync the ipod. How can I do a factory reset to start over completely?

I have an IPod touch and it had a password on it. I cant remember the password and do not have the computer anymore that I used to sync to iTunes. The message that I get is "iTunes could not connect to iPod Touch because it is locked with a passcode. You must eneter your passcode on the iPod touch before it can be used with iTunes."
How can I go back to factory setting (knowing that I will lose what is on the IPod) and use a different iTunes account.

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