Ipod touch says "iPod is disabled, connect to itunes"

One of my three children's ipods is coming up with this error message.  I have purchased a new computer in the past couple months and don't know if that has something to do with but he uses it all the time. This error message does not allow you to go beyong the main page.

Place the iPod in Recovery mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes.
For how to restore see the restore topic of:

    Connect in recovery mode to restore, explained in this article: iOS: Unable to update or restore
    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. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - 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 another cable
    - 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.
