I recently bought a used iPod touch generation 5 and reset it (erased everything from it because the previous owner left a passcode on it) and I had to enter my language,wi-fi stuff, and then it said "Activate iPod" I don't know the owners info! Help?

I recently bought a used iPod touch generation 5 and reset it (erased everything from it because the previous owner left a passcode on it) and I had to enter my language,wi-fi stuff, and then it said "Activate iPod" This iPod is currently linked to an Apple ID (c*****@k*****.net). Sign in with the Apple ID that was used to set up this iPod. The man who sold it to me said he bought it from another guy and sold it to me..So, I don't know what to do! I searched it up and it said you could go to iCloud and iTunes, but It's not working for me. Please help!!

you have a thin brick. I suspect your iPod was stolen or lost. I would turn it into the police since it is worthless to you if you can't get the previous owner to remove from their account

Your problem will be that AppleTV only has HDMI and optical output - no analogue out so unless say you had a B&W Zeppelin or similar that has optical in you'd need something esle to decode the audio to ananlogue.
Some have also reported AppleTV not working for audio when TV is off or in standby.
You may be better off having both!

Found an Ipod touch--how can I locate the owner?

I found an Ipod touch--how can I locate the owner? The Ipod requires a passcode.

You can't. Turn the iPod into your local police department, or the station closest to where you found the iPod. They have resources for identifying and contating the owner, should they wish to take that time.
Regards.

Purchased used Ipod Touch 3. Has absolutely no software on it.

I purchased a used Ipod Touch 3rd G. It came with nothing on it. And I mean nothing. When I power it on, the screen shows a picture of a USB cable with an arrow pointing to the itunes logo. Pluging into Itunes does nothing. I have various Apple devices and have been using iTunes for years. I am thinking the problem is that the Ipod has no software it won't even begin to do anything. It seems to be like having a computer with the hard drive wiped clean. How do I get basic software on it?

PLEASE HELP ME?!?!?!?!!?!?1

The steps are provided in the link above.
Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off. If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
Note: If you see the screen pictured below, let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then start with step 2 again.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
Use iTunes to restore the device.

Get the password from the person from whom you purchased it. It sounds like you encountered the Activation Lock

That is a new feature to help prevent theft. Apple will not help.
You iPod may have been stolen or lost and yo may want to contact the police.

I have an old Ipod 5th gen that I have been using for downloading music from my library. Upon purchasing an Ipod touch and registering it in Itunes, I can no longer sync tunes to my old ipod. How can I get that option back on my old ipod?

I purchased an iPod touch 5 64gb mint condition, it was working good but now I reset it and it's asking for the Apple ID of the original owner. Does anyone know how to bypass this so it works for me?

I purchased an iPod Touch 5 64gb mint condition, it was working great but I reset it and now it's asking me for an Apple Id. Problem is it want the original owners & not mine. I would have no problem contacting the person I bought it off of but I no longer have their information since when it worked I deleted the emails!
Does anyone know how to bypass this problem so that I can have the ipod work for me and my Apple ID?
I would even take it to Apple if they could fix it, would they? and what might that cost me?
Any suggestions would be great!!!!

Nope. Only the previous owner can do that. See:

Have a used ipod touch which apparently have a passcode on it. I do not have the passcode and the seller will not respond to me. How can I access the ipod to open it and reset everything.

Place the iPod in Recovery Mode and restore via iTunes.

If not successful, try DFU mode.
