i forgot my passcode and have not snyced to a computer so I can not restore. Please help
If you don't remember your iPad's passcode, you have to restore it as a new device.
Read iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
The passcode is quite secure. It would not be worthwhile to have one otherwise. -
My daughter forgot her password and now cannot access her phone, (3GS), any suggestions?
How to can access a phone when we've forgotten the password? We tried to restore.
From the iPhone manual... "If you forget your passcode, you must restore the iPhone software. See “Updating and Restoring iPhone Software” on page 256."

I have set up a yahoo account, however, the default continues to go to gmail. I cannot access itunes, or any of the apple communities. ( I am happy to see the security, however, now I am stuck. HELP!
What, exactly, "continues to go to gmail"? You need to provide us with very specific information as to what things you are having problems with. One at a time.

I forgot my password and I never synced my phone since I got it

You'll have to restore your iPhone and all info will be lost.
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. -

I need help hacking into my ipod i forgot the password and i cant factory reset it because the power button is broken?!
If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5 and 5C. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
You will find respective repair costs in the appropriate link:
iPod Service Support and Costs
iPhone Service Support and Costs
iPad Service Support and Costs
There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
1. iResq or Google for others.
2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit

You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.
You can restore from a backup if you have one from BEFORE you set the restrictions passcode.

That was not smart.
Activation Lock can NOT be bypassed.
Reset the password for the Apple ID that was initially used on the device. http://iforgot.apple.com -
I Need to change a new Apple id on the iPad but I can't sign out the old one because I forgot the password and the security question.
Yes, you can just log out of iCloud on the mini (Settings>iCloud> Sign out) and nothing will be affected as long as the iPad is not restored from any backup after that. Though if you're giving her the iPad I would highly recommend moving the pictures to your iPad (via this page) so that the mini can be reset and set up under your daughters ID to avoid Activation Lock in the future.

My I phone is leaking E-mail passwords and 3parties are accessing the E-mails! I have changed passwords 3 times in 8days!! As soon as I upload the E-Mail account to the I-Phone, everything starts all over again, What do I do?
The last Aplication I downloaded was Yahoo Finance (a new version) with Yahoo.es .....after a couple days it is asking me to change my E-mails to yahoo.es...and will permit me to upload me e-mails to the I-Phone.... I do not know if this helps..I really doubt it if this is a security issue with iPhone, more like you may have answered one to many questions during an apps setup. Or just a coincidence. Most of the time, it has something to do with some site you were on or with a laptop or desktop web page, but not the iPhone.

I downloaded the i07. My id had changed a year ago and I forgot my password and my answer to the security question was not accepted. Tech support say nothing that can be done. I can no longer access my iphone. Any suggestions
I believe part of the recovery process is you get an e-mail allowing you to reset questions. If that e-mail isn't correct either because your son set it up then you really have no option but to ask Apple again. They are getting strict abotu security and given the number of "My iTunes account got hacked" posts here I can guess why. They have no way of knowing you really are the owner of the account. It's like me going to a policeman and saying, "See that car over there? That is mine, can you open the door for me?" and the police opening it on that basis alone.
