restarting up an i pod touch under another user

Hello

My daughter lost her ipod about 1 year ago and now has a new. Yes we found the old one. But she can't remember any passwords to do anything with it. How do I get started up again under my e-mail address and enter what i want in it.

thanks

Jackie

Connect the iOS device to your computer and restore via iTunes. Place the iPod in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.

If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:

iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring iOS software

To restore from backup see:

iOS: How to back up

If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the iPod backup that iTunes makes.

You can redownload iTuns purchases by:

Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store


If she forgot here Apple ID/iTunes password see:
