Sep 20, 2016 9:02 PM in response to charleedawnby Stuart423,If you are unable to access the e-mail address, you have two options: first, you can call Apple technical support at 1-800-MY-APPLE and have your account verified. Once the account is verified, they will send you an e-mail that will allow you to reset the password for the old e-mail address. That e-mail will be sent out a day after you talk to Apple.
The second option is to restore the iPod to new, which means you'd erase everything from it and start over. To do that, connect it to a computer with iTunes running, hold down power and home button until you see the iTunes logo, and choose restore on the computer.
