Do as the manual says and restore teh ipod.
If you are unable, then type "unable to restore" into the search bar at the top of this page by Support and read the resulting help article. -
I need to enable my password. It was disabled due to too many wrong entries. I reset it several times and I can log on to my account info but can't make purchases. The message is " your Apple ID has been disabled" Apple support will only help if I pay $29.00. Help!
Hi David , Contact your bank they may have disabled your credit/ debit card because of an unusual amount of small purchaches of APPS , ALBUMS etc....... Has your name been changed if so create a new Apple ID and RELAX. BANKS TREAT THIS AS FRAUD they may need you to confirm you purchased them APPS.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.

Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

I locked my iphone because I entered password too many times
I locked my iphone because I entered password too many times. The message I get is ( iphone is disabled- connect to itunes
If you have a passcode to the screen lock that you've forgotten, restore the iPhone from the computer to which the iPhone is synced. For information and instructions, see:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
If that will not work, you'll need to put the iPhone into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:

White screen after i entered the wrong ID password too many times
Hi,
I was attempting to sync my blackberry information to my laptop when i was asked for the ID password, I tried a few options but could not remember it at all. When It reached the last attempt the screen said if I entered the wrong pin it would erase all my information. I stopped went to the website and changed my passwords to make sure, then I went back and entered the new password. Immediately the screen turned white and began to erase everything. I pulled the battery immediately and having been frantically searching the Internet for a way to undo this. Please Please Please help.
I have so much on my phone I really need. Especially videos of my baby :-(
Can anyone help me.
Solved!
Go to Solution.Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Failure of the BBID credentials will never wipe a BB. What actually happened was you incorrectly entered your user-created device-lock password too many times, and it then proceeded with wiping the device, as per the requirements of the security level accepted when enabling that feature. There is no way to stop it.
Sorry.

My cousin's iphone gave it to me but the bad thing is, it has a icloud and i can't access the phone. my cousin is involved to a motorcycle accident and he got a amnesia so he didn't remember anything to this phone. I entered the password so many times so that i can't activate the icloud account. Please, I need to access this phone immediately for emergency purposes. You are my only hope. The phone model is a1429 Verizon (Factory Unlocked). P.S apology for my bad English.

I have followed the steps provided by apple to restore an iPod touch. It is disabled due to having the wrong password entered too many times. When I get part way through the restore process on my computer it pops up a box saying that it can't restore until I enter the passcode into the iPod. I have tried this same process over 5 times now and keep gutting the same results. It is my kids iPod and he has only had it since September. Someone please help me before I throw the thing through the window and my kid strangles me!!! Thanks!
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.

HT1212 my iphone is saying iphone disabled due to me re-entering the password to many times help
my i phone is saying iphone disabled as i enterd the passlock to many times i need help please
If you forgot (or don't know) your passcode, restore the device from backup on the last computer it was synced with when the passcode was turned on... this will remove the passcode.
If you do not have access to the last computer it was synced with, or you don't have a backup, you will have to force it into recovery mode & restore as a new device. At this point, you will lose all data on the phone.
