Old iPod forgotten restriction passcode

Hello cotton0014,

We would like to see how we can help you with a forgotten passcode on an old iPod Touch. Follow the steps in this link and get back to us with any questions you might have: If you forgot your iPhone passcode - Apple Support

"Step 1: Make sure that you have a computer (Mac or PC)

This process requires a Mac or PC. If you're using a PC, make sure that it has Windows 10 or later, and that iTunes is installed. You also need the cable that came with your iPod touch, or another compatible cable, to connect your iPod touch to the computer.

If you don't have a computer and you can't borrow one, you need to go to an Apple Retail Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider for help.

Step 2: Turn off your iPod touch

1. Unplug your iPod touch from the computer if it’s connected.
2. Press and hold the Top button until the power off slider appears.

3.Drag the slider to turn off your iPod touch, then wait a minute to make sure that it turns off completely.

Step 3: Put your iPod touch in recovery mode

1. Get ready by finding the button on your iPod touch that you'll need to hold in the next step:

• iPod touch (7th generation) uses the volume down button.
• 
  • 
    
• iPod touch (6th generation and earlier) uses the Home button.
  • 

2.Press and hold the correct button for your iPod touch while immediately connecting your iPod touch to the computer. Don't let go of the button.

3.Keep holding the button until you see the recovery mode screen on your iPod touch, then let go.

If you see the passcode screen, you need to turn off your iPod touch and start again.

If you can’t get your iPod touch to show the recovery mode screen and you need help, contact Apple Support.

Step 4: Restore your iPod touch

1. Locate your iPod touch in the Finder or in iTunes on the computer that it’s connected to. (Learn how to find your connected iPod touch.)
2. Choose Restore when you see the option to Restore or Update. Your computer downloads software for your iPod touch and begins the restore process. If the download takes more than 15 minutes and your device exits the recovery mode screen, let the download finish, then turn off your iPod touch and start again.

3.Wait for the process to finish. 

4.Disconnect your iPod touch from the computer, then set up and use your iPod touch."

Cheers!
