Ipod Touch Wiped out

My son allowed a neighbor kid to attempt to update his ipod touch.  Instead, she wiped out everything!  Is there anyway to get it back the way it used to be?  All apps, and games he had are gone. 
BTW it is a 16 GB 4th gen.

If he has a backup, restore from backup. There can be either or both an iCloud backup and a backup that iTunes makes when syncing to a comuter.
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

    It is amazing how just as the warranty on my Ipod touch runs out, it has started to shut down on me or freezes. Any ideas anyone?

    If you restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod and still have the problem then you likely have an hardware problem and the Genius Bar is a good option.

    iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
    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.

    DOES ANYBODY KNOW HOW TO TRACK DOWN A IPOD TOUCH WITH OUT HAVING MOBILE ME AS A APP?

    You cannot. Sorry.  You could try calling it via facetime, if  you have facetime, and listen for the ringing.
    BTW, typing in all caps indicates shouting, is considered rude and is difficult to read.
    Many simply do not read such posts.

    How do I update my ipod touch with out losing all my apps,music,pics ect?

    Just do the update on your syncing computer. All the items should be in your iTunes library or, for synced photos, on the computer.  The items will be synced back to the iPod during a latter stage of the update.

  • IPod touch times out during sync

    Does anybody have an idea how to stop this?  I have effectively wiped the device and set it up on iTunes as a new device, but it allways stops syncing after about 12 songs.  Using iTunes 10 on a PC with Windows 7.  It works on my other iPod touch and my iPad, just not on this 1 particular machine!

    This is happening for me too. I just got my macbook and ipod touch so its all a little foreign to me. I am able to get online (obviously) and into itunes and was able to purchase and download a few things. When I tried to sync it to my ipod it stops after a few minutes and says "server timed out".
    This has also happened when I am using ichat. I can send like one message and then it doesn't work and gives that same message ("server timed out").
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Try using RecBoot to kick it out of recovery mode. If that does not work, you will need to restore.
