Sep 21, 2016 6:51 AM in response to wyattcompton38by lllaass,- Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and restore via iTunes. For how to restore: iTunes: Restoring iOS software
You have to either:
- Restore from a backup that was make before you added the Restrictions passcode. If you restore from a backup made with the Restrictions passcode the Restrictions passcode is also restored.
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod
- If you are up to file manipulation see the following but it may not work for > iOS 6.1.3
