If You Are Locked Out Or Have Forgotten Your Passcode or Just Need to Restore Your Device
1. iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
2. iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
3. iOS- Understanding passcodes
     If you have forgotten your Restrictions code, then follow the instructions
     below but DO NOT restore any previous backup. If you do then you will
     simply be restoring the old Restrictions code you have forgotten. This
     same warning applies if you need to restore a clean system.
A Complete Guide to Restore or Recover Your iDevice (if You Forget Your Passcode)
If you need to restore your device or ff you cannot remember the passcode, then you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and re-sync 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. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
Before restoring your iOS device, Apple recommends that you either sync with iTunes to transfer any purchases you have made, or back up new data (data acquired after your last sync). If you have movie rentals on the device, see iTunes Store movie rental usage rights in the United States before restoring.
Follow these steps to restore your device:
     1. Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes before attempting to update.
     2. Connect your device to your computer.
     3. Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
     4. Select the Summary tab.
     5. Select the Restore option.
     6. When prompted to back up your settings before restoring, select the Back Up
         option (see in the image below). If you have just backed up the device, it is not
         necessary to create another.
     7. Select the Restore option when iTunes prompts you (as long as you've backed up,
         you should not have to worry about restoring your iOS device).
     8. When the restore process has completed, the device restarts and displays the Apple
         logo while starting up:
           After a restore, the iOS device displays the "Connect to iTunes" screen. For updating
          to iOS 5 or later, follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. For earlier versions of
          iOS, keep your device connected until the "Connect to iTunes" screen goes away or
          you see "iPhone is activated."
     9. The final step is to restore your device from a previous backup. If you do not have a
          backup to restore, then restore as New.
If you are restoring to fix a forgotten Restrictions Code or as a New device, then skip Step 9 and restore as New.

HT1212 My iPad is disabled because of too many password incorrect answers. I tryed connecting to iTunes but it still said Enter Password On iPad, and it said only Try Again, Cancel and Find an answer to this problem, or something simular to that. What do

My ipad is disabled because of too many itemps and I tryed connecting to iTunes but it said nothing on the Apple Support page said it would. What do I do???

The answer is in the article. Finish reading the second part:
If you see one of following alerts, you need to erase the device:
"iTunes could not connect to the [device] because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the [device] before it can be used with iTunes."
"You haven't chosen to have [device] trust this computer"
If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
Alternatively, place the device in recovery mode and restore it to erase the device:
Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to shut down.
While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then restore the device.

Login has been temporarily disabled due to too many unsuccessful login attempts.

Hello,

There is no generic password, that would create a HUGE security hole. If you have held the reset pinhole down for 15 seconds or so with the unit powered on, then released it, the password should be set to what is on the router label. admin will be the user and when you type the password you should see what appears to be other characters when you type..
One person with this issue had to type the password into notepad and copy paste it to get in.
You can change the default setting of 5 bad logins but I DO NOT recommend this credit to armond_in_nj
"You can reset the number of allowed unsuccessful logins. Log on to the device, then click on "Advanced." In the far left column, choose "Users." In "Login Configuration" set the desired number of unsuccessful logins.
Also be sure to either activate, accept, or save all desired changes prior to changing screens or logging off."
Personally I have also added and extra user in case I have an issue with admin

This will erase everything off your phone, but you need to do a restore. If iTunes wont let you restore it, while plugged in to the computer (with iTunes open), press and hold both the lock and home buttons, then release the lock button when screen goes black.

HT1212 ipod touch disabled due to too many incorrect password attempts - problem is I know the password

My daughter's ipod touch is locked due to too many incorrect password attempts (thanks to her little brother). It is displaying the red bar that states ipod is disabled connect to itunes. Problem is we don't have the computer that the ipod was originally synced with and she doesn't want to reset the ipod. In this instance we know the password.. so is there anyway to get the ipod to ask us one more time to enter the password? I'm not sure how many incorrect attempts were made, but it doesn't state anything about try again in so many minutes.. help, please!

HT4061 My new iPad Air is locked from too many attempts to log onto it.

The red power slider is not working. I installed iTunes and have no backup for the iPad yet. I tried plugging the USB into the PC and holding the upper shutdown/wakeup button and home button at the same time. When I saw the Apple icon I kept holding the home button as suggested and simultaneously plugged the other end of the USB cable into the iPad. I got a message from iTunes saying I could not connect to the iPad because it was locked with a passcode and You must enter the passcode on the iPad before it can be used with iTunes. I did go on Apple and reset my apple password but I cannot get to any point where I can reenter this new password to unlock the iPad. Any ideas how I can unlock my iPad?

Yes. Before connecting to iTunes via USB cable, turn on your iPad, and unlock it (using passcode) and DO NOT TURN IT OFF before connecting it to your PC/Mac for Backup. After connecting it, Open iTunes on your computer, press the iPad logo on top right (or left: depending on what iTunes version you have) After pressing the iPad icon, press SYNC (you may have to scroll down a little).
Then, just wait till it gets fully synced and backupped, then eject the iPad, (By pressing a triangle and a line icon) when hovering over the iPad icon on the PC
Pressing the HOME and POWER at the same time when the iPad is asleep doesnt do anything special. Just try pressing the POWER button (top) for about 5 seconds to turn it on. If it doesnt work, press it for 7 seconds, or CHARGE it.
