My ipod is locked and the password is changed how to do i find out the password

cant figure out the password

you need to restore it
Try to force your ipod into recovery mode. Disconnect it from the USB cord. Turn it off if you can by holding the sleep/wake switch until you see the red slide to off. Press and hold the home button while plugging it into the computer's USB cord. Continue holding the Home button while iPhone starts up. While starting up, you will see the Apple logo. When you see "Connect to iTunes" on the screen, you can release the Home button and iTunes will display the recovery mode message. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
Then you can restore your phone: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414

    Unfortunately, you must restore it in iTunes on your computer.   There is no way to retrieve a forgotten pass lock code.
    You will need to Restore your device from the same computer that you most recently synced to. See - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414.
