Ipod is locked my daughter forgot her password

My daughter has forgot her password to her Ipod....how do I reset it?

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

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.

  • My daughter forgot her password and now her ipod has locked her out and says disabled connect to itunes.  The computer which this ipod was synced has crashed.  How can I fix this?

    My daughter forgot her password and now her ipod has locked her out ir says disabled connect to itunes.  The computer she last synced to has crashed.  How can I unlock this ipod? 

    The device will have to be restored but without the last computer it was synced to, that's not a possibility.
    Take the iPod to an Apple store or Apple certified repair shop.
    You will need a computer in order to sync, restore, and update the iPod in the future.

  • My daughter forgot her password for her IPOD so now it is locked and it's saying connect to itunes but when i bring the account it say the ipod is locked  how do I get her ipod unlocked

    hi can anyone help me with this?

    Restore, if iTunes will let you.  Everything except the password will be restored.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  Be forewarned that it takes a long time.  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.
