This is how to unlock ipod if u forget the password;.
First, you connect your USB cable into the port at the bottom of the iPod nano and connect the other end of the USB cable into your PC. Now, use the start menu to open up iTunes. Alternatively, you can click on the icon in the dock if you are using a Macintosh computer. Then, In the iTunes window, you should see a list of devices connected. Select your iPod by clicking on the device which has a name matching whatever you had named your iPod.
Locate the button that says "Sync" and click to create a connection between your PC or Mac and your iPod nano. As soon as the syncing process is complete, click the "Eject" button that can be located next to your iPod

Although the second generation iPod Nano (also known as 2G)
uses a four-digit pass code that prevents unauthorized access to your iPod by
locking the screen, you can also unlock the device by plugging it into your
computer's USB 2.0 port.
When the 2G iPod Nano is connected to the computer it is
synchronized, and automatically unlocks the screen according to the official
Apple site.
In order to successfully unlock the Nano it must be plugged
into the primary computer used for synchronizing content.
Click "Start," "All Programs" and "iTunes" on
your PC's desktop, or click "iTunes" on the Macintosh's desktop dock.
Plug the iPod Nano's cable into the docking port on the iPod
Nano.
Plug the other end into the USB port on the computer to open
iTunes.
Click "Controls" at the top of the iTunes' menu,
and select "Eject iPod."
The iPod Nano's screen will be unlocked once it
is ejected from your computer.
try code 0000...or search the ipod users guide appropriate for your ipod model on the internet... it will tell you some tips like restarting or setting it to default without formatting it...
the best way to unlock the iPod when the screen lock code was forgotten is to connect it to your computer and view it in My Computer. Go to folders, make sure you can view hidden files then go to ipod control click device then delete the file named _locked. unplugged ur ipod and its unlocked,
there is no way you can unlock your ipod nano without the screen password. i would request you to contact the authorized service center. they will be in a position to help you out.
you cannot unlock an iPod if
you forget your combination. If you can't unlock your iPod and you
don't have access to the primary computer, your only option is to
restore the iPod, which will erase all music and data."
Unfortunately, if the password has been forgotten, you will have to "Restore" the iPod, which will erase all the songs and other files that are currently on there.
To update or restore iPod nano:
1 Make sure you have an Internet connection and have installed the latest version of
iTunes from www.apple.com/ipod/start.
2 Connect iPod nano to your computer.
3 In iTunes, select iPod nano in the Source pane and click the Summary tab.
The Version section tells you whether iPod nano is up to date or needs a newer version
of the software.
4 Click Update to install the latest version of the software.
5 If necessary, click Restore to restore iPod nano to its original settings (this erases all data
from iPod nano). Follow the onscreen instructions to complete the restore process.
Basically you cant unlock the voulume if you dont know the password. You would probably have to reset your iPod in order to adjust your volume and when you put a new password in be sure to remember it.
Restoring the iPod may do the trick. To do this, plug the iPod into your computer and when iTunes opens there should be a button under the iPod menu that says "restore". Doing this will also delete all the songs on the iPod, so you will have to reload all the music back onto it.
hopefully this helps!
