Im locked out of my ipod and i just got a new computur and wont sync?

I lost my ipod (in the couch) for like a year. My stepmother found the one i lost and locked me out, im not really sure what the password is anymore, i cant try because it doesnt work. And i got a new laptop recently and moved all my music and my accounted and got ride of the old laptop and right now, when i try and unlock my ipod on itunes it would let me and it says the same things, "Itunes can not connect to the ipod ' Abbie' because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter the passcode on the ipod before you use connect to itunes." and then a try again button and then cancel button... when i click the try again it just pops up again! Im not sure that to do.

Place the iPod in recovery mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. For recovery mode:

HT1212 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. But, in the top left hand corner, there is an outline of a box. how do i fix this

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.

Mac formatted ipod & external HD, just got brand new PC for Christmas

Hey everyone!
So I'm a macgirl through and through...but my father just got me a brand new PC for my business and I can't turn it down. One problem though. My ipod touch and external harddrive are both formatted for Mac. Before spending money on software like MacDrive and XPlay (which are a little too expensive for me). I thought I'd ask if there's another way to get all of my music and files onto my PC.
Thanks in advance!
Kim

Before spending money on software like MacDrive and XPlay (which are a little too expensive for me). I thought I'd ask if there's another way to get all of my music and files onto my PC.
No, because without such software Windows is not capable of reading a Mac formatted iPod (or any other drive).

I am locked out of my iPod touch and i can't restore it as it asks for my password which i don't know how do i unlock it?

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 am locked out of my ipod touch help

Hey guys i need help i am locked out of my ipod and i cant remeber my password can you please help me

If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup).
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.
You may have to force iPad/iPod into Recovery Mode

I have 3 IPOD touches. I just got a new one and set up an apple id for it. When i go to the store, it brings up an old apple id to one of the other ipods. Why isnt it bringing up the id i gave to the ipod?

I have 3 ipod touches. Just got a new one and set up an apple id for it. But when i use the ipod to go to store to make a purchace. It tells me to sign in, and brings up an Apple ID and ask for password. the problem is the Apple ID its bringing up is for my other Ipods. How do i change it to bring up my id i set up with That ipod. I never once put that id into the current ipod. Like i dont even know how it got there.

This is what yo have to do:
Go to Settings>iTunes and App Stores and sign out and sign in with the other account.
That is the only place.
Try signing out. Then
Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
Then sign back in.

You didn't say which model of iPod Nano that you have, but generally there should be a lock setting, that can be turned on or off, to prevent accidental changes in settings. And, there is also a setting to turn on or off a feature called, "Shake to Shuffle." It allows you to change songs by just shaking the iPod.

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
