HT4479 how do you reset the passcode on the ipod touch

my daughter doesn't remember her ipod touch passcode. Anyone know how to unlock it or change it?

No. It cannot be changed. You have to restore it in Recovery Mode, and all data will be lost if not backed up. See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • How do you reset your passcode on the iphone 4?

    How do you change your passcode with an iphone 4? My son can't remember his passcode :-)

    You should contact the owner of the iPhone, and ask.
    You'll need to connect your iPhone to the computer with which you first sync'd to iTunes.  If you respond with, "Gosh darn it, that computer broke, or maybe I sold it, or perhaps it burned up when I installed new software", or something similar to that, you're implying that the iPhone is stolen.  Don't blame your son.

    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    
    For without iTunes
    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.

  • How can you find out what generation your iPod touch is?

    How can you find out what generation your iPod touch is?

    Hi,
    Here is help for the operating system:
    If you are locked to iOS 3 then you have an iPod Touch 1st Gen.
    If you are locked to iOS 4 then you have an iPod Touch 2nd Gen.
    If you are locked to iOS 5 then you have an iPod Touch 3rd Gen.
    If you are locked to iOS 6 then you have an iPod Touch 4th Gen.
    If you can get iOS 7 and have an iPhone 5 sized screen [bigger] you have the current iPod Touch 5th Gen.
    I assume since it says you have iOS 5.1.1 you have an iPod Touch 3rd Gen.
    Also, you may want to sync it so iTunes can tell you or you can look at the model number on the back.
    Hope this helped.

  • How do you reset your passcode it you forget it

    My son forgot his passcode on his ipod touch.  Not it has completely locked him out.  Is there a way to reset it? 

    You'll need to connect it to the iTunes library you normally sync it with and restore it.  If iTunes asks you for this passcode before it will let you proceed, connect the iPod to iTunes in recovery mode instead using the instructions in this Apple support document.

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased. That is how the security feature works
