Code restrictions and restore iPad2

Hi, I have an iPad2 and today I discovered that my restrictions settings is enable, but I don't remember ever having entered a code... Perhaps some of my friends did it and not told me. I read that I can restore the iPad as a new iTunes. But after I restore all my apps, photos, music etc.? How can I do?

Force iPad into Recovery Mode. Follow step 1 to 6 very closely.

    The music continued to play with the iPod?
    If so, when a call is received while listening to music with the iPod, when the call is answered the music should be paused. When ending the call, the music starts playing again from where is was paused.
    There is no automatic mute with notifications for received email or messages while on a call and there is no setting for this.

  • I have an IPad with a Restriction code that we cannot remember.  Is it possible to delete and restore the IPad without the code?  If not how do I figure out the code or how t? o remove it?

    The only option is to wipe the device clean and restore it to factory settings.  Hope you have a backup.
    Follow the instructions in  iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 to restore the device to factory settings.
    Once you have setup the device as a new one, you can then sync it back with your iTunes account and all your music, apps, contacts and any other content sync'ed with iTunes will be loaded on the device. Any content that is stored only on the device and not sync'ed with iTunes, like app logins or data, will be lost during this process. Be forewarned that this is a long process and can take a couple of hours or more to complete. This can be painful, but it is necessarily so to prevent users from working around the security settings. After the restore is complete, you can setup a new Restrictions passcode. Make a note of the passcode to avoid this situation in future.

  • Ipod Touch - recovery and restore does not delete unknown Restrictions Code

    Hi, I'm sure this has been answered hundreds of times already.
    Having put into recovery and restored on numerous occasions, I find that ipod is still in '10 failed attempts' on wanting to enter passcode (whether it's Restrictions or Reset).  All info i find says to recover/restore etc. and this will return to factory settings, but it isn't.
    How can I get rid of this locked passcode please?

    Normally you should be able to put in a new passcode during this process:
    If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync 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.

  • I locked up my restrictions and don't remember my pass code.    That was 2 years ago now I want to use FaceTime, iCloud etc and I've restricted myself....   HELP somebody.  PLEASE

    I have an IPad2. When I first got it my 9 year old nephew was using it a lot &hi noticed stuff was missing like photos and apps and new stuff had been added.
    I wanted to lock up stuff so he could not download and get rid of things I wanted on there. I set my restrictions up so I thought I was safe. I inadvertently locked myself out by forgetting the lock code for my restrictions. It's been 2 years and I need to set up things I am locked out of. Can anyone help me ?  Is there a way to reset my lock code on my restrictions?

    You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.
    You can restore from a backup if you have one from BEFORE you set the restrictions passcode.
    Also, see iTunes- Restoring iOS software.

  • HT1937 Hi I'm Ronald Macatangay. I use IPad to, my problem is I forget the code that I enter in a restriction and I can't delete some of my apps. Can you halp me. Thanks

    Hi I'm Ronald Macatangay, I using iPad2 and I'm having a problem with restrictions I forgot the code that I enter. And I can't delete some of my apps. Can you help me? Thanks

    You will need to connect it to the computer you sync with and Restore it as a new device then rebuild everything manually. If you restore from your backup it will restore the restrictions password.

  • My restrictions are on and I didn't turn them on.  The code is not the one I use to unlock my ipad.  How can I find out the code to turn off my restrictions and why did it turn on?

    My restrictions are turned on. I didn't turn them on.  The only code I've used on my ipad is to unlock it and that code won't work on my restrictions.  How do I turn off restrictions and prevent them being turned on again?

  • Error code 1618 when trying to restore ipad2

    my ipad2 was working fine until yesterday when I went to use it and was telling me to activate and when I tried to it says the activation server is unavailable to try through itunes. So when I tried that it said that Ihad to restore the ipad so I did 3 times, First I got error code 1611 and code 1618 the 2 times after that.
    Now the ipad is just a blank screen and itunes says that the ipad is in recovery mode.  Any thoughts?

    Just thought I would post that I am having pretty much the exact same issue.  Everything was working fine until I connected to iTunes to update the ipad firmware.  Now I'm stuck in restore mode and get code 1618 each time I try to restore.

    Now i can see the role and user in BOBJ and also i can login to BILAUNCH PAD with authentication as SAP  But unable to run the webi reports and dashboard hence i have added those reports to this user in bobj and now i can run the reports, but restriction is not working.
    In BI I am able to restrict user  but in bobj its  not restricting. kindly let me know if i am missing anything?

    Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
    Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. Head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
    If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post. (Although the procedure is for Vista and 7 and you've got XP, just read "Computer" as "My Computer", read "Uninstall a program control panel" as "Add or Remove programs control panel" and assume the system is 32-bit, and you'll be doing the right things.)

    Hi ..
    Follow the instructions here >  iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode

  • My iTunes won't detect my iPhone that has to be restored via iTunes *because if pass code problems* and its running iOS 7.2

    my iTunes won't detect my iPhone that has to be restored via iTunes *because if pass code problems* and its running iOS 7.0.4

    If itunes is comming up and saying it can't read the device because it's locked with a passcode, you may have to put your device into recovery mode first.
    To put your device in recovery mode: (Following these steps will erase your device and reset everything to factory defaults)
    1) press and hold the power button until you see the slide to power off option
    2) swipe to power off
    3) Press and hold the home button while the device is off and connect it to your computer. Continue holding the home button until you see a graphic with the iTunes logo with a picture of a USB cable below it.
    4) iTunes should give you a message that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click ok and then select Restore iPhone. iTunes will download a fresh copy of iOS and then wipe the device and restore it. Depending on the speed of your computer's internet connection this may take a while. Just leave the iphone connected to your computer until it's finished.
    If itunes is not detecting it at all or is Not giving you the message that the phone is locked with a passcode, you may end up having to reinstall itunes. This seems to be a fairly common problem after the most recent itunes update (11.1.5)
    If this is the case and you happen to be running a windows based computer you will have to uninstall itunes in this order from your programs and features option in control panel:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
    Then download and reinstall itunes from itunes.com try putting your device into recovery mode again and restore.
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers.
