Hold the home and sleep button until the apple icon appears in the background. If that doesn't work, then you may have to connect to iTunes. Hopefully, you won't have to connect to itunes, because if you do , it will delete everything. But if you do, plug into itunes and repeat the first step.

Go to the "settings" app on your ipod touch and then under settings go to "general". Once on "general settings" scroll all the way to the bottom and there is another option to push "reset" push this and it's straight forward from there :)

Plug your iPod Touch into a USB port on your computer and open iTunes. Once iTunes has opened, find your iPod Touch on the left side panel. Click your iPod Touch and your iPod Touch's information will come up on the screen. In the middle of this screen there is a section called "Version". In this section you will see a button called "Restore". Clicking this button will prompt you as to whether or not you want to make a backup of your iPod Touch. If you are restoring because of a technical issue with your device I recommend not backing up. Do this by clicking "Do Not Backup". This will take you to the factor reset process. Follow the onscreen instructions given by iTunes to reset your device to it's factory settings.

*Note: Instructions for iTunes version 9.1.0.79

Connect your iPod to iTunes and go to the iPod's home page (click on the iPod menu in iTunes). Click 'Restore' and this completely resets your iPod.
