An iPod that is locked (the screen lock, not the hold switch) can only be restored via iTunes if the combination is not known.
Restoring the iPod will erase all contents of the iPod and take it back to factory-fresh condition.
Wrong. I found this online, tried it and presto!
How To: Unlock a Locked iPodMy friend recently locked her iPod, and forgot her passcode. After searching the internet, she came up with this link telling her that there is effectively no way to unlock a locked iPod. Wrong!After doing some digging around inside the iPod, I couldn't find anything. However, enabling hidden folders brought up a new folder: iPod_Control. Inside this folder was another named Device, and inside this was a file named _locked. Opening up this file in Notepad, I found a bunch of symbols, I assume this was an encrypted password. I simply deleted the file, and the iPod was unlocked! This worked for me, but after further research, I found out that the fix for this problem depends on what type of iPod you have. However, the following set of steps should work for everyone.
1) First rename the _locked file to _unlocked. Disconnect the iPod and reset it.
2) If that did not solve the problem, delete all the text inside the aforementioned file. Save it, and then disconnect the iPod and reset it.
3) If that still did not work, delete the file and then disconnect the iPod and reset it.
Keep in mind that this is not an Apple-sanctioned guide, so use caution when trying this, and if you are not sure of what you are doing, backup any files before you alter or delete them.
You will have to find the owner for that...
Chances are that they won't give you the touch back afterwards though...
You can do a hard reset by holding the home button and the power button until the iPod turns off, then (while still holding the buttons) wait until a silver apple shows up on the screen.
The iPod will still be locked though.
Restore it xp!

The iPod Touch will eventually run out of battery when it is locked, but it will not drain instantly.
ordinary iPod: reset the iPod touch jail broken: press the home button quickly 2 or 3 times (depends on iPod) and open the music box then continue pressing it until the go to music option shows up, then click it then press home. (P.S. the iPod touch has been invented for only 3 years...)
Only if the router you are tying to access with your iPod Touch is locked and requires a WEP key.
Go to your settings and there should be a reset tab to go to and you can reset it that way.
No... you have to have the password or code to sign on to the wifi that is locked ...
If you keep your fingers on the home button and the lock button at the same time for 10 seconds, your iPod shout reset.
No, there is no "administrator logon" for a Touch. The reset is in Settings.
It will clear everything your ipod knows about its networks
