Data wipeout or locking due to one to many failed passcode attempts

I just noticed that on the iPad there is a setting where if you have one to many failed attempts at the passcode the data is wiped from the iPad. Yet I don't see anything like it on the iPhone.
Is there something akin to it, like after one too many tries the phone locks you from any more attempts?

Yes there is.
Settings => General => Passcode lock
Turn on erase option for 10 failures.

Iphone is locked but I can't restore because "find my iphone" is on. I'm prompted to turn it off in settings but, obviously, I can't because I'm locked out due to too many incorrect passcode attempts. What should I do? PS: I downloaded IOS7 today. My passcode was never enabled! But after I installed the new software it automatically turned it on. I hadn't used it in so long, I couldn't remember my last passcode, hence the lockout.

Hello 199Seth
Reset the password and that will take care of activating your iPhone.
Apple ID: 'This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons' alert appears

Out of curiosity: Will Activation Lock still work after an iPhone auto-erases on the 10th failed passcode attempt?

Believe me, I'm no chicken when it comes to security. Using a combination of a strong alphanumeric passcode laced with non-Latin homoglyphs, Activation Lock (which Find My iPhone automatically enables), a disabled Siri when the phone is locked, a disabled Control Center when the phone is locked (both of those are security risks due to Airplane Mode), and Data Protection (erase phone after 10 failed passcode attempts), there's no doubt someone other than me is going to have a real hard time trying to use my device...
... Or so it seems. I've been digging through the Apple support articles to find out what exactly Activation Lock does, and I noticed that if someone goes into Settings -> General -> Reset -> Erase All Content and Settings and erases the device in a seemingly authorized manner, Activation Lock gets disabled with it. However, if someone else tries to erase it, or if it's erased remotely, then it will still display the Activation Lock message and require login with the username and passcode used to log in initially. Here's the real issue, though: Not one of those articles mentions what happens when you have Data Protection enabled and Data Protection happens to get set off by a thief attempting to brute force one's passcode, and how nicely Activation Lock plays with it. Does anyone else have that information, just in case?

While I have yet to confirm this with Apple, my understanding is that the auto-erase wil leave the Activation Lock intact. AL wouldn't be of much use if a thief could get around it by just entering in the wrong passcode multiple times. You'll forgive me though, I trust, if I don't try to test this with my own device.

Option to wipe data after ten failed passcode attempts

Having just upgraded to the latest 2.1 software there is now the security setting to wipe data after ten failed passcode attempts - which I can't turn off as I am synching with work email. Can anyone confirm that this is 10 CONSECUTIVE attempts as 'fat finger syndrome' often means I take a couple of gos each time. Thanks!

A quick search of Apple Support yielded this:
"If you repeatedly enter the wrong passcode, iPhone or iPod touch will be disabled for longer intervals, before you can try again. After too many unsuccessful attempts, you won't be able to try again until you connect to the computer you normally sync with. Note that starting with iPhone 2.1 software, there is a setting to cause the device to erase itself after 10 consecutive incorrect password attempts. This setting is off by default. It can be turned on by tapping Settings > General > Passcode Lock after you enter a correct passcode."
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
You can search Apple support for this as well. It is probably in the manual as well:

What happens after: "Erase data after ten failed passcode attempts" ?

What happens after data is erased from the iPhone after ten passcode attempts?
Is it the same thing as Settings->General->Erase all content and settings ?
Does the iPhone essentially becomes a permanent brick, or does the iPhone appear as a fresh device that just awaits reactivating?
Thanks~!

All the user data on your phone is encrypted. When 10 failed attempt occur, the phone just securely erases the encryption key (overwrites it multiple times), then reboots. Without the encryption key present, even though all the data is still there, it cannot be decrypted and read anymore. Its just a load of random bits, and useless. The phone will just go through it's 'factory default' setup and quick format the flash ready to be used again as if it was a completely blank brand-new phone. At no point during any of this process is the system partition (the area that stores ios4) touched, so there is no danger of the phone being "bricked".
And even if the system partition was erased, you could still restore the phone using DFU mode. It's quite difficult to permanently brick an iPhone, you can recover from most problems.

HT201413 my phone is disabled too many failed password attempts and i cant connect to itunes it says my phone is password locked and have to enter password to continue

im having trouble getting into my phone my phone is disabled have to connect to itunes but i get a error message sayin put in password to continue but i can get to the screen to enter it

Connect in recovery mode and restore, you'll get the option to reset the passcode during this process:
iOS: Unable to update or restore and iPhone and iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
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.

Erase Data after 10 Failed Passcode Attempts

Hi, I have a question. If you try to attempt to guess the passcode and you fail 10 times, Will it factory restore your iDevice?
Can anyone reply to me and tell me if it will or it won't.

If you try to attempt to guess the passcode
You should always keep a copy of all your passwords so you don't have to guess your own password.

Merge Two Reports in Excel Analyzer - One To Many Relationship

I want to show AR Data with CO Data - e.g. a bill + Income and it's associated account ssignemnt on the FI/CO side. I want the report to be able to show a cost centre manager to be wary of the income credited to their cost centre when a debtor has been raisedaas they may not fully pay the bill. To do this I'm using the standard DSO for AR & GL line items. Fisrtly I run a query on GL line item data where the user can select from a cost centre variable to look at credits to their cost centre. This produces a list of source documents that are used (via replacement path variable) in a second query. The second GL Query gives me a list of the allocation numbers for those line items. Had to be two queres as there are two GL postings that needed linking (this is because the cost assignment comes from a ceratin acc type and the debtor information comes from another acc type). I then use the allocation number (again via a replacement path variable) to run a third query on the AR data that shows all bills and payments linked to that allocation number. It seems to work ok.
However I have put these three queries in an Excel Analyzer workbook. All the user does is enter a cost centre when running the report. Each query is on a different sheet but what I'd like to do is merge the data on to the one sheet. I want to see the bill and it's payments from the AR data matched up with the cost assignment from the FI/CO data. This would be a one to many relationship e.g. one bill may have it's cost assignment split over more than one cost centre. Is there anyway to do this using simple excel functionality?
So I'd like to see:
Allocation No. 12345 Bill £100 Revenue £50 Cost Centre 1234 £25
Cost Centre 2345 £25
Anybody any ideas?

Hi,
Thanks for your answers.
I did explore using infosets but really struggled with joining the data and getting a sensible output. For example where a bill was done in installments I was getting 12 lines (e.g. one for each month) rather than just one. THis meant it looked liked they'd paid twleve times as much etc.
I did also try report to report. Which to my mind worked ok. Except the customer wanted it all in "One" report rather than having to drill down to see data.
I'll try a multiprovider but I'm worried that I'll end up with similar issues as I had when using the infoset.
Cheers
Joel

Help with One to Many Formula

Post Author: Don
CA Forum: Formula
Hello Everyone,
I need some assistance. I have a one to many relationship...
Example...
TABLE 1
FieldName = RecordID
DATA, RecordID= 10
TABLE 2, linked one to many to RecordID in TABLE1
FieldNames = RecordID, Name, ContactType
DATA, RecordID= 10, Name= Tom, ContactType= Sales
DATA, RecordID= 10, Name= Dan, ContactType= Service
DATA, RecordID=10, Name= Jon, ContactType= Sales
What I am looking for is to create a formula that would return something that looks like this....
Sales Contact Name
Tom, Jon
So... I want to grab all the "Contact Types" of "Sales" from TABLE 2 then pass in the "Name" field from TABLE 2 and if there is more then one "Name" of the sames "Contact Type" then comma seperate it.
And... I don't want to do this in a sub report.   I do know I can make a sub report and return both values but to my knowledge the values would be on top of one another and not beside each other comma separated.
Ideas?

That may work using a subreport...
I think the root of this my problem is the fact I have a table relationship, left outer... one to many join. So even if I drop your suggested formula in my report I still get repeating record details with blank names where all the other contact types would be.
Ticket Number       Contact Name     Contact Type
111111                  Dan, Jim               Sales
111111                                                                 <---- where the other contact type appear
111111                                                                 <---- where the other contact type appear
I was trying to avoid having to create several subreports for each data field I need on the report. However, I think I can use your formula in a subreport to allow the data to display in a comma separated row rather then a vertical list.
I thought about suppressing but that won't work because I have other contact types I need to list.
Thank you for responding.

Messages are in hold state due to one message at receiver JDBC adapter

Hello,
I am using a receiver JDBC adapter and trying to send an XML file which has an insert query to insert some data into the database i.e., Oracle 9i.
Here at the receiver side due to one message ( which is in to be delivered state) all other messages are got hold and waiting for long time.
I am getting the exceptions as this,

Can anyone help me out in solving this issue.
THanks,

hi surya,
jdbc channel tries a request for n number of times(no of rettries),if that request fails it will take up the following requests,its not like it will process a request forever.
to be delivered will be resulting if reciever is down or network between XI and database server is bad.
try to ping databse server from XI host system.
if everything is fine then look at the channel configuration->advanced->no of retries of database transaction on sql server.
just redue the count to 1 and recheck.

In iTunes I click on a song and when I click on the "get info" tab, it opens up but everything is gray - locked, therefore, I cannot edit the year or genre of the songs. Not every song is locked, only certain ones for some reason. Any help?

In iTunes I click on a song and when I click on the "get info" tab, it opens up but everything is gray - locked, therefore, I cannot edit the year or genre of the songs. Not every song is locked, only certain ones for some reason. Any help?

I ran into the same problem, I think that, If you tab on a song that is on your IPOD, and the song data is grayed-out, I think it means that the song is probably twice on your IPOD and that the iTunes directory can not edit THAT song data for two (or more) files @once. Check if this is the case, sinceI have the same problem,am looking for a way to have One and the same song in more playlists but only keep the song once on the IPOD.

SEM-BPS 6.0 error message requested data cannot be locked but at 999 row?

Hi all,
We are using SEM-BPS with WIB and EP 7.0 and I encountered issues for the first time. I normally avoid configuring layouts with large hierarchies but at this one the client insisted. They are in testing right now and selection of relatively small node (approx. 10-20 cost centers) still gave us an error message.
I know layouts has a limit of 9,999 rows and we should have been okay since it is about 200-300 lines per cost center but we are getting the error message below and it mentioned a limit of 999 rows in the selection table.. Any way we can change that?
Thanks,
mary
Requested data cannot be locked (-> see long text)
Notification Number RSPLS092
Diagnosis
In order to edit data from InfoProvider 'ZYEE_C02', the requested data has to be locked exclusively for user 'YEESU01'. The data that is currently being requested is specified by a very large selection table. In order to lock the data exclusively, the system has to store a compressed version of this selection table on the SAP standard lock server. However, the compressed selection table still has more than 999 rows. So that a reasonable number of users are able to change data at the same time, the system limits the number of records allowed in a selection table to 999 records.
Information on Context of Lock Request:
Lock requests can come from BI-Planning or from BW-BPS. The context specifies the following information:
BI-Planning: for a lock request from a query, {Planning Function} for a lock request from a planning function.
BW-BPS: {Planning Area}{Planning Level}{Planning Package}{Planning Function}{Parameter Group}. For lock requests from manual planning the following is true: Planning function = '0-MP' and the parameter group is the technical name of the planning layout.
InfoProvider 'ZYEE_C02' is always a Basis InfoProvider. The current context information is:
'{0-ADHOC}{0-MP}'
System Response
The requested data cannot be locked.
Procedure
You can normally only avoid this by simplifying your selections. For more information, see the documentation on this.
Procedure for System Administration

Hi Mary,
in RSPLSE you use the option that the BI lock table is maintained in the SAP enqueue server. Here there is a limit - as explained in the long text of the message - that the compressed selection table for one enqueue request should not have more than 999 rows. This limit can not be changed.
The selection table seems to be very big, since the compression factor is at least 5. So please check your selection table:
1 check whether you can make the characteristic causing the problem not lock relevant
2 or use the second option that the BI lock table is maintained in a shared memory area of the central instance of the system.
But it is better to keep the selection tables small, e.g. by making some characteristics not lock relevant.
Check sizing note 928044, e.g. in case you want to use 2. The default setting is very small.
Regards,
Gregor

PIRWBUSR - Locked due to incorrect logons

Hello,

After unlock the user an set the password new in the XI (su01), SLD and in the Exchange Profile (com.sap.aii.rwb.serviceuser.pwd) the user is locked in the next minutes. Have somebody an idea, where i must change the password too?
Kind regards,

Hi Markus,
you can try the following actions:
- connect to http://<server>:<port>/useradmin, enter PIRWBUSER as logon name with the current password, and see if a password change is needed.
- if you are using ONE sld for two system, make sure that the 2 user (PIRWBUSER) have the same password.
