My fourth generation ipod touch is currently disabled. How do I reset it?

My fourth generation ipod touch is disabled from too many failed password attempts. How can I get back into the itouch, or reset it? Also, when I connect the itouch to itunes, I am not able to sync anything.

Place the iPod in Recovery mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes.

  • TS1398 my 3rd generation ipod touch recently lost wifi capabilities. I reset the network settings... this did not help.  I did a complete reset, I now no longer have the Safari icon on my itouch.  Has Apple removed wifi on older models to force new purcha

    I recently lost wifi capabilities on my 3rd generation ipod touch.  I reset the network which did nothing so I did a complete reset.  This actually removed the Safari icon off my itouch and still wifi is completely grayed-out.  Has Apple removed the wifi capabilities to force the purchase of new items?
    I find it completely disturbing that only recently has this become an issue for 3rd generation itouch users.
    Can someone please help as I am exceptionally frustrated
