amanda ramirez, you can restore the device on the the same computer that you normally use to sync your ipod. Put the device into DFU mode, then open iTunes. Select your iPod in the sidebar, and click restore. This will restore the device to factory setting but it will DELETE ALL YOUR DATA if you have not backed it up, it will be lost. You put your iPod in DFU by
Turn off iPod
Hold power button for 3 sec
Hold power and home button for 10 sec
Continue to hold home button until iTunes pops up a message telling you that it has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. The screen should remain black
The only other way that I know of that you might try first is to erase the password but I am not sure if this would work when you are already disabled. This will not erase any data on your device. I guess you can always try and hope you have a windows computer :-) anyhow you plug in your iPod. Open My Computer (or Computer for Vista). Click on Folder options and enable to view hidden files. Next go to iPod_control and click on the folder named Device. If your iPod is locked, there will be a file _locked . Rename the file to _unlocked. Remove your iPod and it will be cleared" you can also check on here My iPod is frozen says I pod disabled?... Good Luck.

Thanks, renaming _locked. file to _unlocked. worked for me on a iPod video 5,5 on nonprimary computer.
It can be done on a Mac too just reveal hidden files.
Terminal:
defaults write com.apple.Finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE
then
killall Finder
To hide files again use the same commands just replace with FALSE.
Cheers

First try to recover your password for that connect your ipod to computer via usb cable.
Now ipod is recognize by computer and find the folder named ipod. Now browse ipod folder and open ipod_control folder, inside that folder there is ipod _unlock file. Try to edit that file with some software to recover your password inside that file otherwise. Delete or rename that file and power of your ipod and restart it. There is other way to recover password but when I put such answer my answer marked as spam and deleted and some senior member using that answer method for their answer and get reputation.
If this will not work then go for below method
Ipod got disabled when you have entered wrong passcode many times. And to unlock this passcode either recover your passcode from ipod or restore your ipod via itunes.
For that connect ipod to computer and if ipod is recognized by computer then open itunes click on device tab then summary tab on right side pane you will find restore ipod. Click on restore ipod and ipod will be restored but this will erase all data on ipod.
If you don’t want to delete data then there is option to restore ipod from backup. So restore ipod from recent backup. For that open itunes - click on devices and right click on ipod there you will find option restore from backup.
If none of above method can solve your problem then enter into dfu or recovery mode. For that connect your ipod via usb cable to computer and then Power off your ipod, now press and hold power button and home button for 15 seconds, now release power button but keep holding home button now itunes will detect ipod in recovery mode now restore your ipod.

If you enter the wrong passcode on an iOS device six times in a row, you'll be locked out and a message will say that your device is disabled.
Psiphon is available on multiple platforms. There is a version that you can download Psiphon 3 for all Windows operating systems. That includes even the obsolete Windows XP.
