For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
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        
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
If you previously synced to the computer then you may be able to recover use of the iPod without erasing the iPod by following the instructions here:
Disabled Recovery-must use syncing computer.

  • IPod Touch disabled for 4342386 minutes!

    So last night I let my iPod Touch chrage overnight, when I woke up and turned it on, it said it was disabled for 4342386 minutes. When I try to sync it with my computer, it wont let because its says I need to enter the passcode first on the iPod...Is there anything I can do to dump it and restore it? I have tried restarting it 10 times but same result so any help is appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Gus

    Hey finnpoika19,
    Try connecting the iPod to the computer you normally sync with. After disconnecting from the computer you normally sync with, you should be able to try again.
    This article provides more information and describes how to restore the iPod touch, when its in this state. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212

  • IPod Touch disabled for 4961238 minutes

    I don't have 4961238 minutes to live, but my iPod says that's when I should try to use it again.
    I haven't used it in a while, so I got it out to use it to find this message. And in that time, fortunately, my warranty expired. Is there anything I (or anybody) can do short of buying a new iPod to salvage this thing?
    P.S. 29 dollars to get help from an Apple Expert is ridiculous.

    You will probably need to try to restore it.
    If you do this, it will restore the ipod to factory settings and erase everything.

  • IPod touch disabled for 23 million minutes and won't connect to iTunes

    So my iPod touch has been dead for a while now. I bought a new charger and when it finally turned on it told me "iPod is disabled try again in 23,000,000 minutes". I've tried recovery mod but when I try connecting my iPod to the computer nothing happens. No message pops up, nothing.

    - Try Recovery mode and then restore a couple of more times.
    - If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    - Try another cable
    - Try on another computer
    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone and use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
    You can also wipe the iOS device by installing the FindMyiPhone app on another iOS device and using that app to wipe the device.
    - If still not successful an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
