Resetting iPod touch

Reset all settings: Choose General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information, such as your contacts and
calendars, and media, such as your songs and videos, aren’t deleted.
Erase all content and settings: Connect iPod touch to your computer or a power
adapter. Choose General > Reset and tap “Erase All Content and Settings.”
This resets all settings to their defaults and erases all your information and media:

On Fall 2009 models with 32 GB or more: by removing the encryption key to the data
(which is encrypted using 256-bit AES encryption)

On Fall 2009 models with less than 32 GB, and models prior to Fall 2009: by overwriting
the data

Important:

You can’t use iPod touch while data is being overwritten. This can take

up to four hours or more, depending on the model and storage capacity of your
iPod touch. (On Fall 2009 models with 32 GB or more, the removal of the encryption
key is immediate.)
