Enter your PIN number to unlock mac

i have seen a few images like the one below before, and was just wondering how i can enable this for my mac running Lion 10.7

@subhuti:
First we need to be sure, that u r running Lion 10.7.
Assuming, u already have hidden 'Recovery HD' partition (if not, then google for instructions)
Now, open terminal and type (w/o quotes): 'defaults write com.apple.DiskUtility DUDebugMenuEnabled 1'
This will enable Debug menu in Disk Utility. Open Debug menu and check 'Show every partition'.
U will see in Disk Utility all hidden partitions r gray. Select 'Recovery HD' partition and click Mount.
Browse to the 'Recovery HD/com.apple.recovery.boot/BaseSystem.dmg' and mount it.
Now, in this image browse to the 'BaseSystem/System/Installation/CDIS/Lock.app'
But, u cant lock nothing with it actually... I also dont know what code is to be used. I dont have iCloud.
Maybe this will give someone an idea...
Credits goes to the mac geeks, I just accidentaly found Lock.app, when I was looking how to put some useful utilities on that partition. I put DiskWarrior.app into Utilities folder, but it wont show up on boot. (It is defenitely there on the image. Checked with Terminal ls command.)
If any one have an idea how to get some more from Recovery HD partition, would be very glad.

"Please enter your keychain number" Yaaaaahhhhhh!

I recently reinstalled my Tiger software and everything works fine except for the confounded message "please enter your keychain number". How can I get rid of that thing forever?

When entering my phone serial number it shows "We're sorry, but this is a serial number for a product that has been replaced. Please check your information and re-enter your serial number. If your information is correct, you may need to contact us."

Hi,
I had purchased an iPhone 5 last month and got the OS updated to iOS 7, yesterday.
The data cable was of very bad quality and when I took it to the retailer for replacement, they said that its not covered under the one year warranty.
Secondly, I have also been experiencing network coverage issues with this phone. So, I decided to contact apple care through the web. When entering my serial number/IMEI it says, "We're sorry, but this is a serial number for a product that has been replaced. Please check your information and re-enter your serial number. If your information is correct, you may need to contact us."
Does anybody have any idea what the reason behind this could be.
- First time with iPhone and frustrated.

If you purchased the iPhone from Apple or an authorized Apple reseller,
contact them for assistance. If you purchased elsewhere, go back
to that retailer and get them to give you a new iPhone or your money
back.
If you have checked the serial number carefully and re-entered it
and that gave you the same error message, contact Apple if purchased
from Apple or authorized retailer; otherwise you have been scammed
and need to pursue the matter with the business you obtained the
iPhone from.

Where do you get your PIN number from

Where do you find your PIN number is there a standard one

PIN for what? PIN is a "Personal Identification Number", so usually it's whatever you set it to.
Some devices may have a default 0000 or 1234 PIN until you change it.

can any one tell me what is that mean..... replace what ?

In most cases, what you said is true...however, this is not always the case. Take myself for example...
1: I posted my phone online to sell
2: Someone saw my serial number and called AppleCare to get a replacement phone
3: An inferior AppleCare representative bypassed a component validation (check serial number to the device on hand) and approved the replacement under my AppleCare plan.
4: After noticing this (about 4 days after it happened) and a trip to Apple and a call to AppleCare, all was resolved. My phone is back to being covered under AppleCare+
5: I learned my lesson.
So, as you can see, there is a chance that it can be something else. Although, if the person selling the phone notices, it shouldn't take long to resolve it. Chances are that it is what you said.
Hope this helps

Hi everyone! I have iphone 4s, which was bought about 6 mounts later and has serial number C2*******TD6 and IMEI ****. When i try to check warranty on the page https://selfsolve.apple.com/wcResults.do i see
We're sorry, but this is a serial number for a product that has been replaced. Please check your information and re-enter your serial number. If your information is correct, you may need to contact us.
And if i try to enter IMEI here i see

Does it means, that I was bought a non exist iPhone? Or it was refurbished? I need an official answer to take them to seller because I was bought iPhone as a new.
Thank you.

Not from Apple reseller( Im apologize, that you right) Seconв question: how can i contact apple via email to get an official answer?

I dont have any idea . I brought out it new from the market.!
Well, when you purchase from a non-official source you run the risk of getting who knows what from wherever. It appears this phone was replaced under warranty at some point, but not returned to Apple for refurbishment. Thus, the SN is no longer valid for warranty & service. If you can return it and get your money back, I'd suggest you do so.

Where do you enter your serial number to see if your iPhone is part of battery recall?

Just heard on news there is a problem with some iPhone 5's and you can go to website and enter your serial number to see if your phone is part of the recall. I cannot find where to do this on the website. Any suggestions?

Please check your eligibility for iphone 5 battery replacement.

We want you to be able to continue to enjoy your device after the update dmeister1! I'm sorry to hear of your lock code difficulties. What make and model device is this? Do you see another type of button or screen option after you enter the passcode? How about swiping?

This is not a valid serial number. Please re-enter your serial number.

The serial number is not accepted.

The Creative Cloud does not involve serial numbers. Can you explain your situation in detail?

How to enter SIM PIN on a wiped IPad when you know the PIN?

My daughter somehow changed her PIN on her IPad this morning but has no idea what it is! I tried to restore to factory settings, but it would not let me do this unless I turned off find my IPhone which I could not do because we do not know the password. I went to find my IPhone and tried to delete the device, but it would not do this since it was online. I decided to wipe the IPad so I could then restore it. That worked, but now the SIM is locked! I know the password to the SIM, but it just tells me SIM PIN locked please enter your PIN to unlock the SIM card. My problem is that the box does not show up to enter PIN. There is nowhere for me to enter it! I tried logging onto itunes to do it there, but tells me the same thing with no place to enter PIN. I am panicking because one of her Santa gifts for tomorrow is a digital makepver that you use with the IPad!!! Please help!

I use two ways - not very sophisticated
On my pop account, I set the preferences to delete mail on server immediately after download
On BlackBerry, I delete the mail account when I am near the computer and re-enter when I want mail

Pin number symbol

I attempted to use Pandora for the first time, and I was asked for a pin number. The explanation for entering a pin number was to use the number 1 for symbols in the password. However, when I entered a 1 for the first symbol of my password and the next three numbers, I got a message that the password was incorrect. Why won't the pin number accept the number 1 for the symbol?

Jabber can not enter the PIN for voice mail

I installed Cisco Jabber 8.6 on the android mobile,And registered jabber to CUCM8.0. In the same time, CUCM8.0 integrated with Unity Connection8.0 via SCCP, Everything is normal.
Tested using any of a telephone call Jabber, it can received voice mail, and shows have a voice mail on the android mobile. then, Hear the tone of the Connection system :"please enter your PIN." However, in any case the PIN can not be submit to the Unity Connection, System reminded over and over again:please enter your PIN.......
I guess the mobile's dial pad can not be supported by Unity Connection, Or other reasons.
help!!!

The Android client is a SIP device and uses RFC2833 for DTMF relay. Unity Connection supports RFC2833 when integrated with either SCCP or SIP. The first question that comes to mind: is the call invoking a transocder/MTP that would be in the media path? For example, if Jabber is using G.729 and you haven't enabled that on CXN or you're requiring a TRP.
I would start with a Wireshark capture from the CXN server to see: a) what the far-end IP address is for the RTP packets; and, b) whether you see the RFC2833 packets arrive. If the sender IP isn't the Jabber client a media resource got invoked which may be dropping the RFC2833 packets. If the IP is correct but you don't see the RFC2833 packets arrive you could then run a Wireshark or collect SDI logs with SIP stack trace enabled from the CUCM node that Jabber is registered to. That would allow you to see the SDP negotiation at call setup to see if RFC2833 even gets negotiated.

When I set up email for the first time, I had to enter a 4 digit pin. Since then, every time I switch my phone on, I have to enter this pin. How do I remove or bypass the pin so that I can switch on the Iphone without having to first enter a pin?

Go to Settings>General>Passcode Lock>tap Turn Passcode Lock Off, enter your "pin".
Edit: Are you saying you are getting a prompt for your email pin, or are you talking about the passcode lock that appears when you turn the phone on?
