I am trying to log into my homesharing network under another users name and password that I know is correct. After several attempts I realized I had a "," where a "." should have been. Now that I have fixed that, I still seem to be getting errors about having the wrong info put in. Does the system lock you out for a certain period of time if you attempt it wrong too many times?
Me too I have the same problem as MicheleP57!!!! What can I do???

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

My iMac, early 2008 24", operating system Yosemite; I tried to fix a communication problem between Apple devices on iCloud. I have iCloud and iCloud Drive. The problem is with iCloud. I attempted to enter my password but apparently too many times. I received the following message: You can’t sign in because your account was disabled for security reasons. It then directed me to iforgot.apple.com to change password/ID. I did, completed the process but it did not release the security lock out from the iCloud in my Preferences. I did this at least five times. Please identify a way to unlock the security system so I can now enter iCloud on my iMac.
I have the same problem. This happens multiple times a day. I answer some questions and then unlock my account and then before long it all happens again. Extremely frustrating as I don't have a clue how to solve the problem.

while watching movie, it failed to download remainder. I had turned it off to try to reset and then ended up freezing in Voiceover mode. It's not acceping my passcode either and I'm wondering if it reset to factory passcode. Have it hooked to my laptop and it doesn't seem to want to open there either (though maybe because it's locked). I am backed up to iCloud but how do I get it to unlock???
Try triple-click Home button (must be quick)

Hi,
Due to my brother locking me out of my ipod touch I had to wait an hour to log in again. Unfortunately when I did this, I, again put in the wrong password twice more, each time locking me out for a further 60 minutes. On my 3rd attempt to log in the wrong password was entered again. This time though instead of logging me out for another 60mins it now tells me to "connect to itunes" but I have no idea how to do this and I am now unable to use my ipod. Please help.See Here > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212

If your phone is disabled from entering the wrong passcode too many times you'll have to restore it to remove the passcode, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212.

Put the iPod into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:

Hey, my main Skype account with all my contacts is locked. It has usually auto signs in, but for some reason didn;t today....I had forgotten the email associated with it, and now that I know which email, it won't let me get a password reset due to trying too many times.
User [Redacted for privacy], thanks.That is almost the same issue that I am having, I just got done talking to live support and they suggested i changed my microsoft password, I changed it but it still says i am locked out due to too many attempts. I had forgotten my password after trying it at least 3 times, I changed my password and tried it again and it locked me out. I am using skype through the windows 8 store, and I am able to access it just fine on my other computer account but unable to go in it on this one.
