Place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore via iTunes on your computer. Recovery mode bypasses the passcode (and erases the iPod). For recovery mode see:

this is the second time i have forgotten my passcode to my ipod touch, the first time i had no problem with resetting everything, it worked fine, this time it says ipod is disabled connect to itunes, so i plug it into my laptop and i sit there staring at the side bar on itunes till it comes up with my ipod, but it doesn't, when i do this on another computer it lets me restore it, but then it stops halfway and said cannot do this since ipod is locked with a passcode, please enter the passcode and try again, but if i cant get into it how can i put in my passcode? is there any way that i can find out my passcode, or any other way i can reset my ipod
its an ipod touch 4th generationOptions for when an iOS device gets locked because of forgotten passcode:
Restore (and reset passcode) 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 (or the device was never connected to a computer) 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)
If recovery does not work there's:

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.

I just bought a new Ipod ios from a friend and she didn't reset it before she gave it to me and when I try to connect it to my laptop it keeps saying "Ipod is disable, connect to itunes"and it says to put in the correct passcode but I don't know what the passcode is and now I can't get ahold of my friend that sold it to me. So my question is: How do I reset the passcode and the Ipod touch so that I can sync it to my laptop and so that I can enjoy my new Ipod Touch?

My 7 year old daughter has an iPod Touch 4 and she used the wrong password too many times. She thinks she remembers her password now but we have already exceeded the attempts and it says "iPod is disabled" connect to iTunes. Is there any way we can get the device to allow another attempt? We are traveling this week so don't have access to the serial number or the computer that was used to originally set up her iTouch. I don't even know what operating system it's on and can only see the home screen.
Restoring the iPod will do nothing to his iPhone.
When you restore it wipes the iPod clean no matter what computer you use.
The only plus to doing it form your home computer is if you have a backup stored there, then you can restore from the backup once it's done wiping.
If you are away form your home computer, go ahead and use the computer you have to restore it, then when you get home, you can restore form any backup you may find. You can use this to help you do that when you get there: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 -

I have restarted my ipod touch a countless amount of times, and it is stuck on a screen. on the screen it says, "ipod is disabled, connect to itunes". i have also tried connecting it to itunes, and itunes says i have to type my passcode in for it to connect. but the screen is frozen, so i cant. what do i do?
For both
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Ipod is Disabled connect to itunes , plug it to itunes nothing pops up and it wont let me recover...
Ipod is Disabled connect to itunes , plug it to itunes nothing pops up and it wont let me recover...
I have the same problem, first the usb itunes screen (pic above) showed up randomly. The computer recognized it at first, saying it was in recovery mode, blah blah. I tried to take it out of recovery mode, but the moment it shut off, the apple logo appeared and didn't go away. This kept happening, so eventually, I chose to 'restore' in itunes. It began to download and install this ipod software update (I'm pretty sure I already had the update). After that, I got this wierd error message, saying I couldn't restore. The ipod, which had the apple logo since the first restore, was then "unidentified" by itunes, and it dissapeared off of the devices list. (Note I did not even touch the cable, and it wasn't syncing anyways) I tried some other ipod USB's, done the recovery mode thing about 10 times, but no avail. Every time I try to do the recovery mode, the screen shuts off for about a second, then the apple logo appears and stays there until I try to recover it again. I have tried almost everything; plugging it back into the computer, plugging it into another computer that it has been recognized on before (which by the way is a mac). I've restarted the computer a number of times, checked for updates for itunes, and searched the web for solutions, but nothing. This is a 4rth gen 32gb ipod.
