I have forgotten my passcode,  what do I do?

I forgot my passcode for my ipod touch 4th gen, the other day and I don't know what to do... can anyone help, please help!
Thanks.  

If you no longer know the passcode, you'll need to connect the device to your iTunes library in recovery mode and restore it.  See this article for instructions on getting your iPod into recovery mode.

  • What do I do if I have forgotten my passcode for my Iphone 4?

    What do I do if I have forgotten my passcode for my Iphone 4?

    Restore from backup on the last computer you synced with, while the passcode was in place. If you have not synced, while the passcode was in place, then you'll have to force the phone into recovery mode & restore it:
    Turn your phone off, then:
    Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still dont see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.

  • HT1212 I have forgotten my passcode for ipad and itunes is not "detecting a device in recovery mode."

    I have forgotten my passcode for ipad and itunes is asking passcode to be entered - even after following directions for computers not synced... multiple times, but iTunes is not "detecting a device in recovery mode."  What do I do now?

    DFU Restore
    This will very likley result in loss of data.
    Plug the iPhone into the computer.
    Ensure that it is running the latest version of iTunes and that it has access to the internet.
    Press and hold both the home and sleep/wake buttons for exactly eight seconds.
    Release only the sleep/wake button but continue to hold the home button for another five seconds.
    Let go of the home button, then look at the computer screen for an instructional popup.
    The popup should say "iTunes has detected a device in recovery mode. . .(etc)"  Click accept to all boxes and let iTunes download and install all of the latest device Firmware and Software.
    If no popup appears, repeat the above DFU instructions.  If you've never done a DFU, it may take about three attempts to get the timing right.

    Which password?
    If you mean the passcode to your iPhone, here's the solution:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
    If you mean the encryption password to your backup on your computer:
    Warning: Make sure it's a password you will remember or write it down for safekeeping. If you encrypt an iPhone backup in iTunes and forget your password, you can't restore from backup and your data will be unrecoverable.
    If you can't remember the password and want to start again, you must perform a full software restore and chooseset up as a new device when iTunes prompts you to select the backup from which to restore.
