Forgotten Restrictions Passcode Help
You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.
Also, see iTunes- Restoring iOS software.
Because you only get 90 days free support with the iPod. If you buy AppleCare you can extend it, and the warranty, to two years.
If you still have the computer the Touch was syncing with just connect the iPod and in iTunes Restore the Touch from backup.
My grandson misplaced his iPod Touch in April. He just found it, but does not remember the password. I reached out to Apple support.For a one time support why do I have to pay?
