Restore Apple iPOD, iPhone on macOS Monterey without iTunes
After months of research and no possible solution in sight over installing iTunes on macOS Monterey, I found a workaround.
In my case my daughter disabled the iPod touch after many login attempts and there was no way to reset it, restore it or upgrade it, without iTunes, and find my was not working anyway.
So I did the reset procedure which was holding the home button and sleep/wake button, while the iPod was connected to the Mac, once it completed the restart an iPOD icon showed up on the finder, once clicked there is the restore and update options and it worked.
