Forgot ipad mini password have no computer

here is the problem, I sent as a gift an iPad mini to a friend in the Philippines. I set a password and now cant remember it.  A computer is not available.

Your only course of action is to plug it into a computer running iTunes to restore it: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414

  • Forgot ipad mini password

    my daughter forgot her password for her ipad mini how do I reset ipad?

    You actually have to go to the apple store and they refresh the whole iPad mini. This will delete all apps on the iPad and delete any other information. I recommend you to get your daughter to try some other passwords she's been using and if she still can't figure it out, then go to the apple store. After your daughter either got the iPad refreshed or she figured it out I also recon,end to change to a easy remembered password. Hope this helped!

    Get your friend or Apple to help restore/recover your iPad. You need a computer.

    I have just changed my iPad mini password a day ago, and when trying to access it today it worked fine until about 4:30 (GMT) when I could not access the device using the correct password. I am absoloutley 100% sure it's correct.Additional details:I was last using Kik messenger before it stopped working.I was sitting less than two foot away from the PS3 my brother was playing.I'm 14 but I'm not some spoilt kid who gets iPhones and iPads from his parents to mess around with, I have got important coursework and homeworks on there.Any help would be great Thanks.

    Hello ConfusedLlama
    If the password is not working to get into your iPad mini, you would need to follow the steps to restore it. If you have a back up through iCloud or through iTunes, you can restore from that back up and it would not bring back the passcode unless it is encrypted.
    iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode

  • Why does the iPad Mini not have music play count?

    I bought an iPad Mini and also have a macbook. I had listened to various music on my iPad Mini the other day, however when I connected the iPad Mini to the Macbook and iTunes via the lightning connector to sync, it synced the ratings I gave the songs I listened to on the mini, but no play count, as if I had not listened to anything. I hope there is something I can do about this as I often look at my play count!!

    It should work work but these kind of bugs pop up between updates, both hardware and software. Try closing all apps in the recently used list on the iPad. Double tap the Home button, tap and hold one of the icons at the bottom till they wiggle then tap the to close them. Tap the Home button to get back to the Home screen then hold the sleep button till you see the slide to power off message. Once it has powered down completely hold the Sleep button till the Apple icon appears.

    Does it even really matter...?
    Many people including myself rely on playcounts to control smart playlist to manage large libraries. Smart playlists can be created to show your most or least played tracks and used more or less as your favorites or other uses. Along with playcounts the date is transferred so to keep a fresh list of music on my smaller iPods a smart playlist set to songs not played in the last month keeps some fresh tunes on it.
    Playcounts are also used to manage Podcasts in iTunes to delete older episode. Bookmarks, which can also be effected by this, can mess up audiobooks, movies and podcast playback between different devices. So yes, it does matter.

  • Does the iPad mini GSM have LTE

    does the iPad mini GSM have LTE, i have one, got 4G sim card, but, never worked, always shows 3G

    Yes. See:

    Scroll down to "Wireless and Cellular"
    Are you in the US or another country? I believe LTE is not available outside of North America. See:

    Yes but it can't show your position if your traveling. If you have a iPhone you can tether your iPad to it then use your iPad on the road.

  • Can you sinc 6th gen ipod w ipad mini without using a computer? Does apple have a cable?

    I travel a lot and I'd like to sinc my 6th gen ipod nano using my ipad mini rather than having to bring my asus laptop.  Is there an apple cable to connect the devices so I can pull the itunes to the ipad from the cloud and transfer to the ipod nano? Thanks C

    The answer is, "you don't".
    Music other than that purchased from the iTunes store had to be synced to the device using iTunes on a computer. The media should still exist on that computer. She can use the computer to sync the music to the new device.
    An iPad or iPhone is NOT a backup device. In order to set it up to sync to a new computer were she to replace hers, the media on the device would have to be erased before anything could be synced to it. Media synced to the device can not be synced back to a computer (without purchasing 3rd party software). Without a computer and iTunes, it's not possible to transfer media from one iDevice to another, even with 3rd party software.

  • What should i do if i forgot my iPad mini password

    what should i do if i forgot my ipad mini password

    Follow the directions in this link: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
    If your device is disabled because you tried too many times, you need recovery mode.  You'll need to try this a few times to get it to work, so be patient:

    Next time, write down your passwords and store in a safe place.
