Re: [apple-iphone] reset iPod

Here's an instruction from an Apple support article & good luck!

Use recovery mode

Follow these steps if you never synced your device with iTunes, if you don't have Find My iPhone set up, or if you can't get to your own computer. You'll need to put your device in recovery mode, which will erase the device and its passcode. Then you'll restore your device as new or from a backup.

Disconnect all cables from your device.
Turn off your device.
Press and hold the Home button. While holding the Home button, connect your device to iTunes. If your device doesn't turn on automatically, turn it on.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode.
Click OK, then restore the device.

Thanks, but I do not have the restrictions passcode, so I am stumped as to how to proceed.

I would erase it first by going to Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content Settings. Then set it up as new using your own iTunes information.

HI,
I have become the owner of a used iPod. It belonged to my grandson who is now using an iPhone, has forgotten the password and no longer cares about the gadget. I would like to clean it out and use it.
I have tried the home button and the on/off switch--that did not work. I plugged it into my iTunes and it does not reset it. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
