Asking for passcode and I don't have one?
I have an iPod touch.
I turned it on 5 minutes ago and it asked for a passcode but it didn't show the numbers, it showed a keyboard. I don't use password or passcodes and everything that I would put, the iPod isn't accepting. No one has touched my iPod except me and I've turned it on and off twice. What should i do?
plug it into the computer
click sync
now click restore
now set up with the backup

My new iPod plays the music over and over again. It does not stop and the volume buttons have no effect. What can I do? The RESTRICTIONS require a a passcode and I don't have one. Any suggestions?
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync/delete all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup.
In order to restore with the unknown Restrictions passcode you will likely have to place the iPod in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

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. -

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,

Been using an ipad 2 without passcode for quite some time. While upgrading to ios 7, I enabled Find Iphone on the Ipad. It asked for passcode and I gave one. Now I forgot it. Connected it iTunes (on my windows 8 system) with which I sync and that too required an update as old version of itunes cannot read ios7. Problem is itunes does not want to get updated. Some vague error on not having right to write a file in ProgramData folder wheras as an admin i have full rights. Next I downloaded the install file from itunes site - no luck it would not install. Then I tried to remove itunes - it does not want to go. Am at wits end... Is the option only to restore it as a new Ipad?
Place the iPhone into recovery mode and restore the iPhone with iTunes on your computer.

how do i migrate files from a imac to macbook pro using an ethernet cable. the migration program asks for firewire and i don't own a fireWire. I do own an ethernet cable though
A FW cable would be far faster & Easier, but with Ethernet you need a compatible version of Migration Assistant running on both Macs.

I won Lightroom 1.0 as a door prize a few years ago at an Adobe clinic in Fremont. I have since misplaced the original disk and cannot get the program to open. It wants a serial number and I don't have one. How can I get the serial number so I can use the software?
Thanks for replying, Jim. I wasn't planning to use it for raw images. I shoot film, black and white, and have many negatives I want to print. I am unfamiliar with the upgrades in Lightroom. I wasn't unhappy with the version I have. It was useful for my purposes.
Because it was a few years ago, I don't remember if I registered the product. I was able to login to my account. But could not find a path to communicate with Adobe. I will keep trying.
