Disabled iPod with Broken Home Button

Ok, so my iPod Touch has a broken home button on it and I left it with my little cousin to play some games on when he is 7 years so he knows tech.

He has disabled my iPod and when I try to connect it to iTunes (like it says to do) it says "To allow access, please respond on your iPod touch", now when I try and respond it just still shows "iPod is disabled" and underneath it says "connect to iTunes".

Someone please help me!!!!!

iPod touch, iOS 9

If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken


Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.


ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5 and 5C. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.


You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:


Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.


To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
