How do you unlock the four digit lock combination on apple ipod if i have forgotten the password?

Unfortunately, the only way to overcome this is by doing a factory reset.
This can be done by connecting your iPod Touch to your computer and opening iTunes.
Find your iPod on the left hand side under "Devices".
This will open a page you should be familiar with if you have ever synced your device using iTunes.
Click the "Restore" button and follow the instructions given by iTunes.
Note: This will erase all content on your iPod Touch and require you to resync all music, video etc back onto your device. However, it is the only way to overcome a forgotten passcode.

∙ 14y agoAssuming you are talking about an iPod, there are two things you can do.
First try this: Connect your iPod to the first computer it was synced with or the computer set as the primary one in iTunes. Open the iTunes application, then disconnect your iPod from the computer, and it should no longer be locked.
If that doesn't work, see Apple's page on how to restore an iPod to its factory settings. See the link in Related Links below.

∙ 12y agoWell when I had forgotten my ipod's passcode I was really upset. But i found a website that showed some very good solutions to helping me find it out again.
Here is the website: forums.ilounge.com/ipod-touch
Copy and Paste it
or you can do this:
Plug in your iPod
Go to "My Computer"
Open your iPod's drive (gokl's ipod for me)
Make sure you can see all hidden folders (If you aren't sure go to Tools, Folder Options, View Tab, and check Show)
Open the folder "iPod_Control"
Open the folder called "Device"
Rename the file "_locked" to "_unlocked"
Hope this helped
I remembered mine so I was very lucky.
I am very sorry if it did not work.
