Update to iOS7 now asks for security code.  I don't have one.

i just updated my wife's phone to iOS 7.0.4.  It is now asking me for a security code but I don't have one.  How do I turn on my phone?

During the update to iOS 7.0.4 you are encouraged to create and use a passcode. Are you sure the screen you are seeing is not just asking for you to CREATE a passcode? If so I recommend creating, REMEMBERING and using a passcode to protect the data on your iPhone.
But there should also be a small "Skip" button that you can tap to avoid creating a passcode.

    Asks for security code with a gift card setup? What code,anyway was thrown away by the person gifting, HELP!

    The security code should be on your card, quite often on the back of it on the signature strip, though it's sometimes on the front of the card : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3541
    Does your card not have one on it ?

  • Setup for bb Torch is asking for a password, I don't have one

    I need to reset an existing email and setup is now asking me to login with a user name and password, this has not been the case in the past on my phone.  I do not have a password enabled on my phone.
    It will give a forgotten password option and asks for a username.  No matter what email address I give it tells me the password was sucessfully sent to my blackberry, but it does not apear in any of my email addresses.
    Why is this happening and better yet how to I solve it?/
    I have shut off the phone; taken out the sim card and battery and started back up and that doesn't change it either.
    Help!

    I got tired of waiting for you and your response is still not the answer.  I called ATT they transferred me to blackberry who transferring me back to blackberry techinical support at ATT, left me on hold for a very long time and disconnected me.  Finally got in touch with ATT techinical support and they SOLVED the issue!!!!
    What must have occured is that in the updating of the software over time for BB is that they require a password for the phone, since I never established a password for my phone the only way for me to fix the issue was for them to establish a password for me.
    For other frustrated blackberry users when needing to change settings on exisiting email and you run into a required password, call your carrier and their technichal support can get you up and running with a password.  

  • Asking for passcode and I don't have one?

  • HT201363 my ipad went on update and now asking for passcode which i don't know

    my ipad went on update and now asking for passcode whcih i don't know what should i do now to start operating

    Hey sunny1008,
    Thanks for the question. The following article provides some solutions if you are having issues with passcode lock:
    iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
    If you have never synced your device with iTunes, or you do not have access to a computer
    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:
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. 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.
    3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
    5. iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then restore the device.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • In AppStore.app for some reason when I try to update my apps, it asks for the wrong user account than the one that I am logged in with. This makes me unable to update my apps

    In AppStore.app for some reason when I try to update my apps, it asks for the wrong user account than the one that I am logged in with. This makes me unable to update my apps

    You would have downloaded those apps with the wrong Apple ID then created a new Apple ID which is the on you are on now. This is acting as normal because all content downloaded from the iTunes and App Store is attached to the Apple ID it was downloaded with. To stop this you would delete the apps and redownload them with your current Apple ID you are signed in with.

  • Asking for security code

    I dropped my nokia 7373, the battery came out and when I turned it back on it asked for the security code. I am 99% certain that i had it as 737737 (pepper) its always opened on that code before but now it wont. I have tried the default 12345 but no good either. Im getting so frustrated!!!

    If you changed the security code, then contact NCP to reset the phone.
