  • Enter your system lock pin code to unlock this mac

    I just traded my Macbook Pro for a 27" Core i5 iMac. I wiped the iMac when I traded and I brought it home to do a full reinstall. I booted holding the Option key down and noticed this iMac had a recovery partition I opted to use the recovery partition to reinstall. To my surprise it was Lion. And the cd was snow leapord.  I was cool with that and signed in and used the computer all day. Then sometime while I was sleeping a obnixious alarm went off on the iMac and there was a box to enter your system lock pin code to unlock this mac.
    Priding myself on doing all repairs on my own since my primary job is reinstalled and virus removal. Long story short I could not access anything no matter what I tried. I ended up calling apple care and asking what needed to be done they explained I needed to bring it to a apple authorized store and they would have to unlock the firmware.
    Do you guys know what they are talking about or is there anything I can do before driving 100 miles to my nearest apple store. I find this rediculous.

    I did indeed did wipe the system clean at the owners house, I went home with what I thought was totally clean hard drive, there was a recovery partition I did not see until I got home. This recovery partition was indeed tied to the original owner which I did not know at the time. I assumed it was like any old windows recovery and it was clean and made reinstalls a dream. Well long story short I had the snow leapord cd in the drive and ready to go until I seen this recovery partition and I opted to use  the **** recovery and I reinstalled registered and signed into everything and used the computer all day 12 hours probably. By the way the recovery partition that was tied to this guy was lion.  
    So then I left the computer on and went to sleep. Late last night an alarm went off and that is when I saw the enter the pin to unlock this mac. I have tried holding the C when I boot up, I have tried holding the Option key when booting up. I have tried resetting the pram. Nothing can be done. I can get to another lock screen by phsically unplugging the power cord then booting up holding the option key. That will bring me to a screen with nothing but a lock and a line that I can type some kind of admin password. Nothing I have with work. I tried, root, admin, administrator, my password I used when I set lion up. Nothing!!!!!.
    At this point this machine is more or less 100% useless, the only option I can see is to bring it to a authorized apple retailer and have them fix it. I did bring it to a local apple store. And they said they could probably fix it, but I would have to pay them between 50-100 dollars. The repair guy said something about getting the info from the ram. I just laughed and left.
    Anyway this is like a BIOS lock, you cannot get to terminal, cd, to any boot options, you cannot reset anything at all. It's a full lock.

  • HT4436 i have a problem with my Macbook Pro. When i tried to open it, something appeared : "enter your system lock PIN code to unlock this Mac". What should i do?

    i have a problem with my Macbook Pro. When i tried to open it, something appeared : "enter your system lock PIN code to unlock this Mac". What should i do?

    Question is did you lock your Mac from Find my iPhone using iCloud or is the Macbook really yours?
    If you have in fact locked your Mac using Find my iPhone on iCloud then you will need to enter the PIN you have set when you locked the Mac.
    *If you have not iniate the remote Lock then someone else has used your Apple ID and Password to lock your mac.

  • How many times can you enter the wrong pin code on an iphone before it resets?

    How many times can you enter the wrong pin code on an iphone before it resets itself?

    Hey Robin.T,
    Thanks for the question. The following article provides the answer to your question:
    iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
    If you enter the wrong passcode six or more times, you'll see a message that says one of the following:
    iPhone is disabled
    iPad is disabled
    iPod touch is disabled
    You can also set your passcode lock to wipe the device after 10 unsuccessful attempts (Settings > General > Passcode Lock > Erase Data)
    Thanks,

  • 4 digit system PIN code required

    I have a 2011 or 2012 iMac that I bought used 2 years ago.  It was working good until a week ago when it locked up and asked for a 4 digit system PIN code.  I do not have this information nor do have the person who I bought this computer from's information.  Is this computer garbage or is there something that can be done?

    Any luck yet? I finally updated to Mavericsk today and it's locked me out. My MacBook Pro is second hand and I have no idea what to do now!

    Hi Tracy,
    Have you changed something on your SharePoint 2007 environment recently before this issue occurred?
    This issue may be related to Alternate Access Mappings settings like the following similar post, if you have configured AAM, you can check if this issue happened to some URLs, if it's the case, please add the problematic URLs as a Publish URLs for the default
    zone for your web application, and also add these URLs as trusted locations, then check results again.
    If above doesn't work, please enable ULS log on verbose level to get more useful log errors which time are corresponding to the errors occur.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    That appears when your Mac is locked using “Find my Mac” (did you remember if you locked your Mac?). First of all, if you didn't lock your Mac, change the Apple ID password, because it would be hacked > http://iforgot.apple.com
    Then, you should know that it's not possible to start the computer without inserting the PIN, so the only thing you can do is to take the Mac to an Apple Store or reseller to get the MacBook Pro unlocked
