Alright so you need to force recovery on the iPhone and Restore it, probably as new Restoring consists of erasing all data on the iPhone and reinstalling it, there is a chance you will get your information back, but this is the only thing you can do at this point.
Follow this article and it will show you how to force iTunes to recognize your iPhone, without the passcode lock, this will then let you restore it. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808

Once the restore is done, it may ask you if you want to load your backup onto the iPhone, keep in mind by trying to use that backup it may ask for the passcode again. For best results, do not load from a backup and choose Restore as a New Device.

Okay well you have to do a full restore. Turn your itouch completely off. With it off, hold down the circle button and plug in the USB cable connected to your computer. The itouch will power on and you will see the apple, but keep holding in the circle button. After 15-30 seconds, you will see another (different) cable/itunes screen on the iphone. iTunes should then recognize that the itouch is in recovery mode and you can then do a restore. You should be good from there.
Remember, turn off the itouch. Then while its off hold down the circle button and plug it in. Keep holding down the button until the recovery screen comes up. Good luck!!

Many people do this! Simple solution! Do the following:
1) Start your iTunes and connect your iPod touch to your comp.

2) Keep holding the POWER button (top right) together with the HOME button (centre, bellow the ipod screen) for about 10 seconds. You should hear a sound(s)..
Release the POWER button ONLY, keep holding the HOME button, you will again hear some sounds.

3) If you did it correctly iTunes will tell you that it has detected an iPhone or iPod touch in recovery mode.

You should be able to re-sync all your previous ipod content from there...

My iTouch is disabled but my dad deleted my iTunes off my laptop:
if your father deleted your song library then you will have to download your music again.
same with your apps
if your restore all that will do is load a new copy of your ipod software in the ipod.
it won't help with getting your songs back
it will help with removing the password lock.

    My itouch is disabled and i dont remember my password. i try 2 connect it to my computer thru itunes but it wont show up because it says it is locked.
    i had the same problem. this is all the steps needed, calling apple isnt necessary.
    first: press down on the top power button and on the menu button
    second: keep pressing, eventually the screen to turn it off will pop out. ignore it and keep pressing.
    third: the itouch will turn off completely but dont stop pressing
    fourth: the apple sign will come out. you may now release.
    fifth: now you should be able to connect to itunes that will restore your ipod.

    your welcome.

    oh and get some ice for your fingers . lol.
