HT201304 If I forgot my password is there any way to remove the restrictions and backup my iPod from the computer? I tried reseting it to factory defaults and then backing it up but it still has the restrictions on.

I'm trying to remove my restrictions, and i reset it to factory default, but everytime i back it up the restrictions are still on. I don't want to have to register as a new ipod and loose everything i've bought and added.

- Restore from a backup that was make before you added the Restrictions passcode. If you restore from a backup made with the Restrictions passcode the Restrictions passcode is also restored.
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- If you are up to it see:

  • Hi ... I had to replace my iPad and I want restore from backup but I forgot my password, is there any way of recovering it?

    Hi ... I had to replace my iPad and I want restore from backup but I forgot my password, is there any way of recovering it?

    Would the backup be password protected? I don't know ... After you restore from a back-up, and if you have passwords set up, would the newly restored iPad require a password or would it be "live" for 5 minute or however long the iPad was set to wait to require a password? Maybe wiser heads can advise...

  • I put a passcode on my iPad 2, then I forgot it. I've tried to restore it in iTunes, but it still has the passcode on it. What do I do?

    I put a passcode on my iPad 2, then I forgot it. I've tried to restore it in iTunes, but it still has the passcode on it. What do I do?

    If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup).
    If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present
    Connect the iPod to your computer and restore via iTunes. Place the iPod in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.

  • HT204053 I change my AppleID user name but iCloud still has the old AppleID, how do I correct this?

    I change my AppleID user name but iCloud still has the old AppleID, how do I correct this?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)

  • HT5621 I changed my AppleID, but iCloud still has the old email address on my phone. How do I change that?

    I changed my AppleID, but iCloud still has the old email address on my phone. How do I change that? It keeps asking me to input my password, but obviously that won't work because the ID is wrong not the password.

    Then change your Apple ID back to the old ID, then delete the account. Once done, change your ID to your new one.

    My computer was formatted but I need to access my old content on my itunes backups. Is there any way I can acquire these iTunes backup files ever again?
    I tried recovery software but had no luck!

    You reformatted the drive in your computer. The backup files you want to access were overwritten when you re-formatted the drive. They are gone. There may be data recovery services that can get them back. Search google if you want. This has absolutely nothing to do with using an iPhone at this point. You deleted files on your computer...

    If you previously had iWork '09, those apps are still in your Applications folder in a folder named iWork '09 unless you deliberately deleted them.
    If you did delete them & have a Time Machine backup that includes your Applications folder you can restore them from there. In the past the iWork apps have not worked well when copied from another drive, but some users have reported that this works for them, especially if the apps were originally purchased from the Mac App Store. If you originally installed them from the retail disk, find the disk & reinstall them & then update to iWork 9.3.

  • Is there any way to remove the duration from the course outline in Presenter 8?

    Is there any way to remove the duration from the course outline in Presenter 8? I would prefer to not have that listed if at all posible and can't find a solution.

    Are you talking about the Time Remaining display on the side bar? The text for that field is in the Modify Text Labels... tool in the Theme Editor of Presenter. You can change it to whatever you want, but you may want to keep a record of what the default text labels are, as there is no restore to default option. The Elapsed Time field is what you would want to change. I have seen this modified to show no text, copyright information or other general info.

  • Is there any way to create a time machine backup to an external hard drive with content already on it?  I have a hard drive that i have used for pictures but when i try to run a backup it says i need to start from a blank drive. Can i get around it?

    Is there any way to create a time machine backup to an external hard drive with content already on it?  I have a hard drive that i have used for pictures but when i try to run a backup it says i need to start from a blank drive. Can i get around it?

    It would be much better if you had separate drives for the pictures and Time Machine backups.....but, if you want to use the same drive for both purposes, temporarily move the folder with the pictures to another location for safe storage.
    Run the Time Machine backup on the hard drive and verify that everything is working correctly. Time Machine will format the disk for you in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) as part of the backup process.
    Then move the folder with the pictures back to the hard drive with the Time Machine backups.
    When you have tested to make sure that everything is working again, then and only then should you delete the folder with pictures from the temporary storage area.
    Again....it would be much better to keep Time Machine backups on a drive just for that purpose, and other data on another drive for that purpose. This is clearly one of those times when the fact that you can do something does not mean to imply that you should do it.

  • Is there any way to remove the explicit warning (the red "E") from podcasts (in the app)?

    I could really use some help with the Podcasts app. Whenever I try to use a subscription for a podcast directly on my iPhone, every episode of that podcast (loaded through iTunes) gets the explicit tag.
    That red "E" is eating up valuable space in the podcast name and I don't want it there. Is there any way to remove it?
    Any help would be very appreciated!
    P.S. I do not have "Show content ratings in library" activated in iTunes and I don't use any other parental control  or restrictions option, never have.

    No there is no way to remove it.

  • I changed my passcode, and then forgot it. Is there any way to fix this without restoring it?

    I changed my passcode, and then forgot it. Is there any way to fix this without restoring it?

    Your options are to remember the passcode or restore it
    On the plus side if you used iCloud or synced with iTunes theres a good chance you will get most of your data back after restoring
