Connect the iOS device to your computer and restore via iTunes. Place the iPod inRecovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Backing up, updating, and 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 iPod backup that iTunes makes.
You can redownload iTuns purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Do you mean the iPod is now disabled from entering in the passcode incorrectly too many times? If so, see this article.

I-tunes Library was deleted, contents is on Ipod, how can I get back to lib
My I-tunes Library was deleted, All contents is on Ipod, how can I get all my music back into my library? Is it possible?
There is another way to retreive music from your iPod when it has been accidently deleted from your PC (I don't own a Mac, so cannot help there)which doesn't involve buying rip-off software. This is a very basic thing to do and following the instructions below, it is something a novice can do - tested it on my wife who is a total technophobe (and I hope you appreciate the moaning I got from forcing her to test it lol)
First change the settings in iTunes that automatically sync the iPod with the current iTunes library (or you will end up with a blank iPod too!)by clicking on "Manually manage songs and playlists" and also click on "Enable disk use". These are on the "iPod" tab within the preferences on iTunes (click on "Edit" then on "Preferences").
Next, double-click on "My Computer" and then on the iPods icon, which shows as a removable drive. In the iPod folder you now have on screen, click on "Tools" and then on "Folder Options". Now click on the "View" tab and then look for "Hidden files and folders". Just under that is an option to "Show hidden files and folders"
Now you have done all that - now comes the part where you recover all that music!
You should now see a folder called "iPod_Control". That is where your music folder is hidden. Now you have to add the Music folder within the "iPod_Control" folder to your library using iTunes itself....
First close iTunes down and then run it again. Click on "Edit" and then "Preferences", click on the "Advanced" tab and make sure that the "Keep iTunes Music folder organised" tab and the "Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library" tab are both ticked and click on "OK".
Next, click on "File" then click on "Add Folder to library". You need to point iTunes at the "Music" folder on your iPod, to do this scroll down the locations until you see "My Computer", click on it and then look through the locations for the iPod and click on that. Next, click on "iPod_Control" and finally onto "Music".
Now click on "OK" and prepare to wait for quite a while while iTunes recovers your music.
When you have finished that, you should tidy up by returning a few settings back to their original places. Just go back through the process and re-hide hidden folders (open "My Computer" and click on "Tools", "Folder Options", then the "View" tab. Change the "Hidden files and folders" to "Do not show" and click on "OK". Lastly, in iTunes, click on "Edit", "Preferences", "iPod" and change the setting to "Automatically update all songs and playlists", then untick the "Enable disk use"and click on "OK"

HT1212 im looked out of my ipad how do i get it unlocked
im locked out of my ipad how do i get back in ?
If it's showing the disabled screen due to too many incorrect passcode attempts then you will need to connect it to the computer that you normally sync to and you should then be able to reset the iPad and restore/re-sync your content to it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212) - you may need to put the iPad into recovery mode in order to be able to reset it : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
If you do it via a different computer then :
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. -

I am locked out of my iPod and it says i cannot restore or back up due to me needing to unlock it and obviously i don't have my password. Please help, how do i unlock it?
Options for when an iOS device gets locked because of forgotten password:
Restore (and reset password) on your device by connecting it to the last computer to which it was connected:
iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring iOS software - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
If you cannot connect it to the computer to which the device was last connected you will have to use recovery mode to completely reset the device, losing all data:
iOS: Unable to update or restore - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 - recovery mode (e.g., cannot connect to computer last used to sync device, iTunes still asks for a password) -
I have gotten locked out of my ipod touch and do not know the password, but my computer cannot restore it, so I need to know how to get in without restoring it.
PC WAY
1.Plug the iPod in computer.
2.Go to "My Computer" And click the apporiate drive your your iPod.
3.Change the folder option to "View all hidden files and folders"
4.Navigate to ipod_control
5.Then go to Device
6.Then there is a file there named"_Unlocked"
7.Open that up with a text editor (Notepad) and viola the passcode is right there. -
im locked out of my ipod, and the screen isnt responding when i go to swipe to unlock it or when i swipe to turn it off. All of my notifications are there but i cant reply to any of them. My screen is completly unresponsive. But, in the top left hand corner, there is an outline of a box. how do i fix this?
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. 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.
