6 digit lock code after OS X Yosemite

I just installed OS X Yosemite and after it restarted it is asking for a 6 digit code. It is a white screen with six boxes that will only accept numbers and it only gives 3 options: sleep, reboot and shut down. What is this 6 digit code and where do I find it? I have a white unibody late '09 MacBook that was running OS X Mavericks just fine with 6gb RAM. Thanks

Backup your iphoto library, In the launch pad if iPhoto is being installed cancel it , drag the iPhoto application from the applications folder to the trash (wait until this is finished to empty the trash) and go to the App store and install iphoto 9.6

HELP ME SOMEONE PLEASE ,PLEASE

You can't restore a backup to a phone that is running a version of iOS earlier than the version running when the backup was made. Normaly this situation occurs when replacing a phone, and the eplacement OS is not up to date. The fix is to update the replacement phone, then restore from the backup.
You could try an older backup made with iOS6.
Anyway, why do you need all your info on it while the screen is being fixed?

Lock code after reset to factory settings

I have changed my lock code from default and I remember it. Since I had some software issues, I reset the phone (Nokia 5230) to factory settings by giving the lock code.
Today when I enter (after resetting) my personal lock code, the phone didn't accept it. I tryied several times and got a warning message. Will my phone become locked permanently if I enter the wrong lock code again? What should I do? Please help.
Solved!

You get locked out for increasing lengths of time before you can input another lock code upon repeated tries. Although it should not have changed, presumably you tried factory default of 12345 as one of your attempts? If all else fails a visit to Nokia Care facility with proof of purchase beckons.

Lost lock code after firmware update

Hi,
I recently updated my E66 firmware (i don't remember the versions now). The thing went ok, the phone is working... in general ok, except that: When I try to change something that requires the lock code. It don't recognize my old password. Now it showed me some error about 5 tries and it diapered before i could reed it all.
The phone is working, but I'm afraid that if it turns off I will be unable to power it on again.
Does any one know what that message was. And Is there a way I can get arraund to change the lock code, since the phone is working?
Thanks.
P.S. I can't get the phone to a Nokia Care Center because there's none In Uruguay, and even so, this phone isn't available in the region.
Solved!

On some phones the lock code is reset to the default 12345 when the firmware is updated. This is what must have happened with your phone.
However, since you have entered an incorrect lock code too many times in succession, the only way to unlock that now is for you to send the phone to a Nokia Care Point. There is no other way.
The phone shouldn't ask you for a security code when it starts, only for the PIN protecting your SIM. Some Eseries and Nseries phones, however, have a facility called "remote locking" whereby you can lock the phone by sending it an SMS with a code in it that you can define. If this function is activated then the phone does also ask for the security code when you switch it on.

Lock code after Yosemite install

I just installed OS X Yosemite and after it restarted it is asking for a 6 digit code. It is a white screen with six boxes that will only accept numbers and it only gives 3 options: sleep, reboot and shut down. What is this 6 digit code and where do I find it? I have a white unibody late '09 MacBook that was running OS X Mavericks just fine with 6gb RAM. Thanks

I wasn't asked anything about passcodes or authentication other than enter administrator password when OS X Yosemite first started to install and then it asked if I wanted to turn on the "find my Mac/iCloud lock" on and I declined. Before it restarted it started beeping strangely and popped up and said I had an iCloud or find my Mac notification but it never showed anything. I have checked my email that is linked to iTunes and they haven't sent any authentication info and I've had my iPhone/iPad/iPod with me all night and haven't received anything. What can I do?

E63 Lock Code Problem After Update

I recently checked for a firmware update for my E63. I got excited when i found out that there was an availabla one, the 510 .21 .010 and I immediately started the update process. Everything went ok but when i switched On the phone it asked me for the lock code after 3 or 4 seconds. I tried the default one , 12345 but it showed a code error message. I can't do excatly nothing but the weird thing is that buttons Calendar,Contacts and Mailbox work but i still can't do nothing else.The Home button does not work. It doesn't seem a normal behaviour.Could it be a bug? I read a lot of posts about this problem so this means I'm not the only one having this problem. Please help me. I really need my E63 back as it is my do-everything tool. Maybe a new firmware with this bug fixed would be best.
Thank You in advance

hello, you will need to contact your nearest Nokia Care with proof of purchase/ownership, for them to reset your security code.

N97 won't allow me to enter lock code

I upgraded the firmware on my N97 to 2.1 the other day and have had no problems since. This evening, after a reboot (no new software installed), it won't allow me to enter my 5 digit lock code. The keys are unresponsive. I've tried removing the battery etc..., but it's still the same. I want to avoid a hard reset if possible, as there is some info that is not backed up. I'd be grateful for any suggestions?

How to cancel screen lock code ?

I creat the screen when I set the email with exchange mode
but how to cancel the lock code after I delete this email account
Post relates to: Pre p100ueu (O2)
This question was solved.
View Solution.

When slected off, did it prompt you for a password/pin to confirm? Try this:
1. Turn it off.
2. Close the card and dont do anything else.
3. Immediately shut down the phone, hold down power button for the option.
4. Turn it back on.
Does turning screen off and on promp password again still? If so, the next step will be to partial erase the device by going into device info and tap reset options.

Forgot lock code on iphone

I purchased someone's older 3S Iphone to use and had changed the 4 number lock code after adding all of my phone numbers from my old phone. I now have forgotton the pin code and I had never got around to connecting it to my I-tunes. I am not worried about losing the info that I entered I just would like to activate my phone. Is there anyway to delete the lock code or to recover it?

Nope. You're about to lose ALL of your data. Since you've never backed up, there will be no backup to restore from. Thus, your only option, if you can't remember the passcode, will be to force the phone into recovery mode & restore as a new device. All data on your phone will be erased.
Turn your phone off, then:
Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still dont see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new. In your case, new will be your only option.

TS3274 forgot four diget lock code how do i unlock my ipad ?????

forgot four digit lock code on my Ipad2 how do i unlock it??????

i have tryed that but it din;t work

After downloading the update ios7 my moms phone has been locked with a four digit security code that she didn't have before the update. So she is locked out of her phone. How do I get rid of the four digit code

HOw do I unlock the phone if there was never a lock code on there before the update?

Yep. Same here. There's a NEW feature in iOS7 for Find my iPhone. It requires a passcode. My wife never had a passcode and doesn't have her computer to restore the backup.
Spent an hour on the phone with customer service last night trying to restore the phone to factory settings but it didn't allow us access.
Right now we have a 9-month old brick sitting on the table.
Who in their right mind decided to release this feature that requires a passcode without checking first to see if the user has a passcode?
I was not really polite to the support staff last night on the call but the person was very professional. Kudos to how he handled my call but this is just stupid. So Microsoft-like, so un-Apple-like.
This feature with this iOS rollout is a big failure and my wife, who didn't want an iPhone until she got (and loved it) but is now out looking for an Android device. Apple has lost a customer that they had only recently won over.
