firts make sure that your laptop is plugged into the wall, (if not the ipod drains the battery of the laptop jeje) then download the drivers for the ipod touch BEFORE you plug it in again...then plug in the ipod and try again....also make sure you have itunes so you can see if it recognizes your ipod.

if you do not know your passcode then make sure it is plugged in 2 the cp and make sure the itouch is on the screen where it says enter passcode. then you hold the power and home button at the same time until the itouch completely turns off and then you keep on holding both buttons until the apple logo again. and after that appears, you let go of the power button but you keep holding the home button until the itouch says its connected to itunes. and then you are allowed to access it on itunes. then you need to restore it and it will restore ur hole ipod and there will not be a passcode anymore

you said its not responding to the reset trick nor turn on or charge, plug ipod to pc via usb plug. go to my computer find the ipod it shoudl show up as a hard drive. if it is there click on it and copy the ipod software to the pc (non music). now format the ipod (you was going to erase it any way) once formatted copy the ipod software from pc, back to ipod. this should make feel and act as new again. download and updated version of itunes and put your music onto ipod. feel free to rate this suggestion
