I can not remember my pass code for my ipo touch. How do I reset my settings?

I can not remember my passcode and am locked. How do I reset my original settings? I do not care if I lose all my music.

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

If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up     
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 you previously synced to the computer then you may be able to recovery use of the iPod without erasing the iPod by following the instructions here:
Disabled Recovery-must use syncing computer.

    You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.
    You can restore from a backup if you have one from BEFORE you set the restrictions passcode.

  • I can not remember the original password for my express

    I can not remember the original password for my express or extreme. Help!

    You have two basic choices: 1) Perform a "soft" reset on either base station which will temporarily disable any passwords (base station or security) for 5 minutes to allow you enough time to use the AirPort Utility to change them, or 2) Access your passwords using the Keychain Access utility.

  • HT1222 Hi , I don't remember the pass code to upgrade the software , how can I get it ?

    How can I get my pass code to upgrade my software ?

    The pass code is whatever you set it as.
    It is not located anywhere and can not be recovered.
    If you forgot it, you will have to wipe and restore.
