Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled

If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:

iTunes: Restoring iOS software


Then to setup the iPod yo will have to enter the ID and password last used in Settings>iCloud on the device.

If necessary:
