Documents & Data full ? Restrictions passcode wrong?
I'll admit that I have a slim understanding of how my iPhone 4S really works & at the risk of sounding crazy, I'll try to detail the issues I'm having that even the Apple store rep couldn't quite figure out.
Let me also preface by saying I don't understand most of the lingo & instructions posters give to remedy things. I need layperson's terms.
I have 18GB, no music, not many apps but almost 9GB taken up by documents & data. No idea why. I had never backed-up on iTunes because I didn't think it necessary since I don't have much info stored. Apple rep said he'd never seen that much space taken up by docs & data so he instructed me to back-up on iTunes, which I did. I started like 'as new phone' & when it asked me to enter codes (is passcode different from restrictions passcode?) I entered the same for both but when I went to clear out my docs & data (which came back I guess because I restored from back-up when prompted) I was told that my passcode is wrong.
This is the crazy part, and I know I'll sound like a nutjob but I have had some identity theft issues lately & since I don't know that much about how this all works, I worry & sound like a conspiracy theorist (which I am DEFINTELY not) but when I was wiping it & starting new, the screen flashed with a language like Arabic or another Middle Eastern script. I am SURE of this. I am a pretty intelligent person so I know what many languages look like & can't figure out why this would happen. Maybe this happens every time an iPhone is wiped?
Like I said, recently I have had some ID issues. My myverizon account was hacked & my name was booted off the account, my phone turned off, address changed to Michigan & upgrade used on high-end merchandise before I realized my phone was no longer working & called verizon to fix. Someone hacked into my wells fargo account & my minor child's account from the back end, stole nothing, but took our personal info such as social security number. Other things as well so I now worry who has access to what.
At any rate, this query post is multi-fold;
#1. If I enetered passcode/restrictions code info when wiping phone clean, why can't I get in?
#2. Why so much space taken up in docs & data? How can I free-up some space?
#3. Am I just being paranoid about foreign laguage upon restore?
When you sync, it does a backup first and then syncs those items you have selected in iTunes.
Perhaps these will help...

Here is the order of what I did to my iPad:
1. A restrictions passcode was put on and we couldn't remember it. Despite numerous attempts at righting this, I couldn't. The iPad would not sync with any iTunes on any computer, Mac or PC.
2. I put a, 'use passcode after one minute' passcode on it and deliberately put in 10 wrong passcodes so it would disable the iPad. Now it still will not connect to any iTunes.
3. I connected to my iCloud account and removed the iPad from the cloud; it says it will erase all iPad data when it connects to the internet. I am fine with that, I need to know what to do now, though. iPad says, 'Connect to iTunes,' but it won't. Please help this amateur of all amateurs!!See iPhone DFU mode explained, and how to enter DFU mode.

Please I don't remember the restriction passcode on my ipad 2 running ios 7.1. Please any help to reset it because I don't want to loose my documents?????
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.

Restricting entry values for "document date"
We need to restrict BKPF's "document date" whereever it is entered.
This may not be a programming question per se, but programmers usually know at least as much as users do on the front end of SAP.
Users must not be allowed to enter invalid document dates (e.g. something with a year of 1204), which they currently CAN do. Is there a way to restrict this field in the table???
Here is a slice of teh data right out of the table so you can see the culprit T-codes. This must not happen:
Type Doc. Date TCode
SD 01/02/1201
BL 01/02/1201
SD 01/02/1201
BL 01/02/1201
SD 01/02/1201
BL 01/02/1201
SB 02/02/0211 FB50
BL 02/02/0211 FB50
BL 12/23/1022 MIGO
WE 12/23/1022 MIGO_GR
BL 05/02/1011 FB60
BL 05/02/1011 FB08
KR 05/02/1011 FB60
KR 05/02/1011 FB08
SB 05/13/0211 FB50
BL 05/13/0211 FB50
Thanks!Hello,
As Gabriel has mentioned you can apply this check by implementing an FI Validation(Trxn. GGB0). This will take care of the trxn. when the a/c'ing doc is created manually e.g., FB* tcodes.
As you must be aware that an a/c'ing doc is created whenever a debit/credit transaction happens inside the system, e.g, GI/GR, Asset a/c'ing. For e.g., the MIGO trxns you've provided in your list.
In these cases the a/c'ing doc is generated automatically & the validation you've defined wont work! You've to implement the validation(via a BAdI, Customer Exit etc) in the respective transaction which can be cumbersome
Hope you get the basic idea.
BR,
Suhas
PS: Please don't try to modify the date on the a/c'ing doc directly via SQL statements! -

RESETTING THE RESTRICTIONS PASSCODE - Even after restoring the iphone and bringing back the data from icloud you cannot reset your restrictions passcode as it is stored in the icloud backup.
Hello risenhauer,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
To reset your Apple ID password without knowing your security questions or have access to the email account, you will need to contact Apple Account Security in your country. Links to contact can be found in the article below.

To date for document date field in setup initialization
Hello All,
We are filling setup table for 2LIS_02_SCL and we are giving the restriction on document date in transaction oli3bw. Since there is a very large amount of data, we are restricting the start document date by 18.06.2009.
We would like to run regular deltas after initialization. So should we enter an end date ?
Can we enter 31.12.9999 as the end date ?
Please suggest the end date for the document date selection.
Thanks and Regards,
RadhikaThere is no need to setup an end date on your InfoPackages because once you create and schedule the delta job for this extractor in LBWE, it will capture the deltas for you no matter the dates on the purchasing document.
When doing your initialization on BW, don't put any selections. Just do an Init w/o Data Transfer and then do concurrent Full Repair extracts using the same selection criteria you did for the setup jobs. You'll get improved throughput by doing this, especially if you execute multiple InfoPackages, with different selection criteria, in parallel.
Once you have your delta job scheduled, you can then execute a delta InfoPackage. -

A Complete Guide to Restore or Recover Your iDevice (if You Forget Your Passcode)
If you need to restore your device or ff you cannot remember the passcode, then you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and re-sync 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.
Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
Before restoring your iOS device, Apple recommends that you either sync with iTunes to transfer any purchases you have made, or back up new data (data acquired after your last sync). If you have movie rentals on the device, see iTunes Store movie rental usage rights in the United States before restoring.
Follow these steps to restore your device:
1. Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes before attempting to update.
2. Connect your device to your computer.
3. Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
4. Select the Summary tab.
5. Select the Restore option.
6. When prompted to back up your settings before restoring, select the
Back Up option. If you have just backed up the device, it is not necessary
to create another.
7. Select the Restore option when iTunes prompts you (as long as you've backed up,
you should not have to worry about restoring your iOS device).
8. When the restore process has completed, the device restarts and displays the Apple
logo while starting up:
After a restore, the iOS device displays the "Connect to iTunes" screen. For updating
to iOS 5 or later, follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. For earlier versions of
iOS, keep your device connected until the "Connect to iTunes" screen goes away or
you see "iPhone is activated."
9. The final step is to restore your device from a previous backup. If you do not have a
backup to restore or have forgotten your restrictions passcode, then restore as New.
If you are restoring to fix a forgotten Restrictions Code or as a New device, then skip Step 9 and restore as New. -

and Home buttons.
3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device.
The device should turn on. Note: If you see the screen pictured below, let the device
charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then
start with step 2 again.
