Restrictions

You can set restrictions for iPod content for the use of some applications on
iPod touch. For example, parents can restrict explicit music from being seen on
playlists, or turn off YouTube access entirely.

Explicit music or video content purchased from the iTunes Store will be hidden. Explicit
content is marked as such by content providers (such as record labels) when sold
through the iTunes Store.

Safari is disabled and its icon is removed from the Home screen. You cannot browse the
web or access web clips.

YouTube is disabled and its icon is removed from the Home screen.

The iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store is disabled and its icon is removed from the Home screen.
You cannot preview, purchase, or download content.

The App Store is disabled and its icon is removed from the Home screen. You cannot
