Forgot restriction password

i got my iphone back from repair and i was going to restore the pictures from the icloud backup so i have to reset But i forgot my restriction password and have tried 8 failed pass code attempt then i found another way But when i connect it to my computer (i also backed it up here) it says "this accessory may not be supported" then it says on my computer "itunes has stopped working" I'm really scared please help me is there another way?

If you can't remember the restrictions passcode, the ONLY way to remove it is to restore your phone as a "new" device in iTunes. That will erase all data on the phone, including the restrictions passcode. If you try to restore from backup, you'll merely continue to restore it, as the restrictions passcode is included in the iPhone backup.

  • What to do if forgot restrictions password

    what to do if forgot restrictions password, not the main unlock password but the 4 diget password for the restrictions

    You will have to restore the iPhone using a backup file from before the restriction codes were added.  A simple reset does not remove restriction codes.

  • Forgot restrictions password.  What settings will be affected by restoring to factory settings?

    I forgot my restrictions password.  What will change if I have
    to restore the factory settings?

    Restoring to factory settings, does just that... your iPhone will be like it was when new and not activated, i.e. everything will be wiped off the phone.

  • Forgot restriction password on iPad mini

    Unfortunately I have forgot the restriction password on my kind's iPad mini. I have found discussions explaining that I need to reset the device to default factory to solve the issue and reset the pwd.
    My kinds have photo and games. I would like to know if the following series might work to recover apps and photos:
    1) backup all contents on iCloud
    2) reset the device to default factory
    3) restore the backup via iCloud
    Will it work? Or will action 3) recover the old forgotten pwd?
    Is there a way to reset the device (including the restriction pwd) and THEN restore photos and apps?
    Thanks! Giusec

    Restoring from the backup that was made while the Restriction Code was in place will restore the Restriction Code.
    You'll have to copy all data and files to your computer or iCloud, then restore, then copy all files and data back after you copy back all the apps.

  • HT4137 iPad forgot restrictions password

    I was rushed and entered a restrictions password on my IPad. Now it will not allow me to change it.  I wrote it down, but it does not work.  Is there any way to reset it.  I have the other password and connected email account.  There is no ITunes, there is an Icloul backup.  Help!  Is there any way to recover this thing without losing all my paid apps???  Thanks!

    If you have upgraded your iPad  to iOS 7 .3 and you want to restore your iPad 2 to factory settings and re install iOS 7 and if you did not back up your previous iOS and you set restrictions with a different key from your log in 4 number key you will be prompted to unlock restrictions to dis able Find my iPad ! I then realised that I had for got my restrictions password so I went to reset all completely wipe from factory settings I can not open Restrictions so you can not do this on Itunes in OS X 10.9 Mavericks iTunes. so he will not be allowed to reset all.
    I could be wrong ,lets find out I found when I installed Mavericks and the new iPhoto I got duplicates so I thought I would restore the iPad, it is a good idea when a new iOS comes along is to restore every thing is on the cloud so you just re down load ,He mihgt have hidden the Apps but you can still get them if you search for purchased.

  • I forgot my password for restriction section, how to retrive it?

    i forgot my password for restriction section, how can i retrive it?

    You can't retrieve it. If you could, what would be the sense of having a passcode. If it was retrievable, then maybe someone else could retrieve it and that would do you no good.
    You will have to restore your iPad by syncing with the last computer that you used to sync.
    You can read this article ...

    Read this as well. In order to bypass the passcode, you may have to use recovery mode in order to restore.
