Apple should provide forgotten password option on lock screen

My experience on Ipad is turning to be really bad because of this problem.

There would be no point in having a passcode in the first place if that option was available.

  • I have forgot my password for my lock screen what can i do to get on it?

    i have forgot my password for my lock screen, and it now says connect to iTunes but it isnt connecting i want to know how to get it on?

    2 options
    1. restore it to a backup you took before you put a password on
    2. restore it to factory settings if there was a work around then the whole password thing would be rather pointless and security would be absent

  • Like many others, I`m a business man and in many ocasions I need to access xls files (Excel) but being able to change using macros like in simulators. I think apple should provide this in the iphone or maybe have some sort of app which we can use?

    I am a business man, and in many times a need a very important tool which I think an iphone should have which is some sort of app which will allow you to make changes to any xls file(Excel file).
    I find apps that allow me to see and open these files but do not allow changing numbers on files with Macros.
    A example is when you have a xls file using macros like in a simulator.
    You have to change the values according to different client and it just doesn`t allow you.
    I think iphone is a very decent phone but I just think that apple should povide this option to all users which would definately be alot happier.
    I work at a finance company and need to use finance simulators with Macros.
    Can you have an app that allows me to do this?

    Since Excel is a microsoft product, they would have to make the app.
    "So why does apple even open these files when they belong to Microsoft?"
    You prefer, since Apple does not make excel, that they not make it possible to even view an excel file?
    Odd take.  All or nothing?

  • TS2097 I inserted a new DVD, it is working but not coming out. Whenever I try to eject it, it does not come out. Apple should provide us the easy and manual way to eject CD/DVD or?

    Hello,
    I inserted a new DVD in my mac book pro, its working and the drive is reading the dvd but unfortunately is not coming out. I have tried several ways mentioned on all over the net and apple community websites but nothing has worked so far.
    I need a easier and manual way to eject the DVD. Where is apple's help?
    Please help me. This is one of the weaknesses Apple should work on because it is causing us pain and loss of efficiency which is not apple's quality.
    Thanks

    Thanks for asking, actually I just found a trick on a website.
    It siad that restart MBP while holding eject button, I did it and DVD came out right away.
    I hope that this works out for everyone.
    But still there is a need for a manual eject system so that people don't worry about stucking the DVD or CD in th drive.
    Thanks anyway dear.

  • No password on wake / lock-screen in 10.4.7

    I did the update from 10.4.6 to 10.4.7 and now my MacBook Pro will not ask me for a password when waking from sleep or screen saver. Usually I have the Keychain menu visible and select "Lock Screen", but this also does not require a password. I've tried un-setting the preference and setting it again, but that does not work. Anyone had this happen before? How do I correct the issue?

    OK... looks like its fixed. Here is what I did. Remove the following file from your Preferences folder:
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.security.plist
    and place it on your desktop in case you want to restore it.
    Log out of your user account and log back in. That did the trick for me and I have my password requirement back as normal.

  • Pro Camera requires password entry on lock screen

    Of course, as soon as it was available on my Lumia 925, I set the Nokia Pro Camera as the default app to launch when the camera button is pressed. I noticed though, that when the phone is locked, the Pro Camera app won't launch unless I enter the lock screen password. The default camera app did not require this, instead allowing you to take new pictures. Having to enter the password can be a spontaneity killer when the right shot presents itself.
    Is this a 'feature' of Pro Camera, or is there some setting where I can change this behavior? If it is indeed a 'feature', please consider allowing access to the app without having to enter the lock screen password, just like the default camera app does.
    Thank you,
    LumiaJohn

    Hi, 
    Unfortunately, there is no way to change this behaviour as of now. This is very frustrating and limits the startup time of ProCamera app, which can lead to some precious moments from getting missed!
    I think this is a limitation of Windows Phone OS.

  • Switch Users Option on Lock Screen

    I am at a community college setting up new macs for a lab.  When someone doesn't log out and let the computer lock up, there is no option to switch users.  The computer has to be turned off for someone else to log in.  The older macs we replaced showed this option.  I just want to know how to get it on the lock screen. 

    Try System Preferences/Users & Groups/Login Options - Show fast user switching menu as. You will need to have more than one user set up.

  • Disabling turn off option in locked screen

    My iPhone was stolen a while back and turned off immediately when it was taken.  I assume the SIM card was later taken out to eliminate the ability to locate the phone.  Does anyone know if theres a way to disable the ability to turn off your phone from the locked screen?

    There is not.

    Please help

    Well have you tried holding down on both buttons until the Apple Logo appears on the screen again? Hold both buttons down for about 10 seconds or so and when the Apple logo appears on the screen again, let go of the buttons.
