Cover it in ice, leave for a few minutes, then it should have done quite hard and just peel off.

Freeze (the method of using ice against the stain to make it easier to remove) until gum gets hard. Carefully scrape (the method of using a scraping tool to gently lift off excess solid or caked-on stains) or rub the matter from the fabric. Sponge with Afta Cleaning Fluid. Apply a dry spotter to the stain and cover with an absorbent pad dampened with the dry spotter. Let it stand as long as any stain is being removed. Change the pad as it picks up the stain. Keep the stain and pad moist with the dry spotter. Flush (the method of applying stain remover to loosen staining materials and residue from stain removers) with a dry-cleaning solvent. If stain remains, reapply the dry spotter and cover. Check the stain every 5 minutes and press hard against the stain when you are checking. Continue the alternate soaking and pressing until all the stain has been removed. Flush with the dry-cleaning solvent. Dry.

Normally, if you freeze chewing gum it can just break off. I'm not sure if it differs for carpets. Soz I haven't been much help.

Use ice to harden it and try to "pick" it out if it's a dark carpet color, you can use lighter fluid on it and that will make it stop sticking. Make sure you wash up the residual fluid afterwards, though. Good luck!

Use vegetable oil. It can easily be cleaned up without staining afterwards, and it will allow the gum to get gooey instead of sticky and come right up. Good Luck!

I havent tried it but somebody told me that dry ice works because it freezes solid. also i know first hand that peanut butter helps get it out of hair, maybe that would work on carpet too (hopefully its brown carpet :P).
