Gave my young son my old 4's phone, he has been able to lock himself out by forgetting code and has forgotten his email password. Is there a way I can restore from I cloud my old setting ?o

The only way to recover from a forgotten passcode is described here. iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled

  • When I download itunes, it says that Ipod Service failed to start. I checked the services under task manager and when I try to start it, it says access denied. How to I get access and for the ipod service to start and run?

    Please help. My ipod classic could not be recognised by itunes when I connect my ipod to PC. Previously it has been recognised before I updated. This was a while ago now and so I removed all apple files and re installed the latest itunes but am having the same problem.
    When I download itunes, it says that Ipod Service failed to start. I checked the services under task manager and when I try to start it, it says access denied. How to I get access and for the ipod service to start and run?

    Some anti-virus programs (e.g., McAfee) have this rule that can be invoked under the "maximum protection" settings: PREVENT PROGRAMS REGISTERING AS A SERVICE. If that rule is set to BLOCK, then any attempt to install or upgrade iTunes will fail with an "iPod service failed to start" message.
    If you are getting this problem with iTunes, check to see if your anti-virus has this setting and unset it, at least for as long as the iTunes install requires. Exactly how to find the rule and turn it on and off will vary, depending upon your anti-malware software. However, if your anti-virus or anti-malware software produces a log of its activities, examining the log may help you find the problem.
    For example, here's the log entry for McAfee:
    9/23/2009 3:18:45 PM Blocked by Access Protection rule NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM C:\WINDOWS\system32\services.exe \REGISTRY\MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\iPod Service Common Maximum Protection:Prevent programs registering as a service Action blocked : Create
    Note that the log says "Common Maximum Protection: Prevent programs registering as a service". The "Common Maximum Protection" is the location of the rule, "Prevent programs registering as a service" is the rule. I used that information to track down the location in the McAfee VirusScan Console where I could turn the rule off.
    After I made the change, iTunes installed without complaint.

  • Forgot password-how do I get in??

    My daughters friend changed the password and doesn't remember it! How do I get into my ipod?

    No need to restore. Do the following: (If in fact you forgot the actualy iPod passcode)
    Plug in your iPod
    Go to "My Computer"
    Open your iPod's drive (usually the F Drive)
    Make sure you can see all hidden folders (If you aren't sure go to Tools, Folder Options, View Tab, and check Show)
    Open the folder "iPod_Control"
    Open the folder called "Device"
    Rename the file "_locked" to "_unlocked"

  • Locked iphone and forgot password how can I get it unlocked without having to reset my phone and lose everything?

    My boyfriend changed his pass code on his iPhone 5 and does not remember it. He's tried every possible code and now his phone is disabled and says to connect to itunes. I'm wondering if there's some where we can go take it to to get the password off without having to reset the whole phone and loseall all our pictures. Any info please I'd greatly appreciate it. I've called our carrier company and  I can't do anything but referred me to apple.

    If this iPhone has previously been synced to a computer you can connect to that computer which will unlock it.
    If you have not done so there is no way to use it without Restoring it and losing your information.

  • I just found out that I have a iPhone 4 not 4s how can I get Siri and my iTunes and App Store are in French

    Would like to get Siri

    First, note that you've only got 14 days to return, and that's only at the Apple Store.  If you bought it elsewhere, different rules may apply.  As for restoring it, I don't think that's necessary.  The Apple Store techs will restore it regardless of what you do, since they can't know what condition you've left it in.
    Also, note that the Mac is also capable of running Windows.  If you want a Mac, there's no reason to return it just because of one program.  Get a copy of Parallels, which lets you run Windows right alongside all your Mac apps, or use Boot Camp to install Windows on a second partition on your hard drive and boot directly into Windows.
    For more info on Parallels, just Google it.  For Boot Camp, see:

  • I forgot my hidden file manager password,How can i get back my files

    I forgot Hidden file manager password,how can i get back my my data

    If you are able to Get Info on the folder of interest go the the very bottom section Sharing and Permissions.
    You can gain access to this area by clicking on the lock in the lower right corner of the Get Info window.
    Once you have input the admin password for the computer you should be able to edit the permissions on that file/directory.

  • Hello, I have a Mac Book Pro mid 2012, and forgot password, how do I reset it without losing info?

    Hello, I have a Mac Book Pro mid 2012, and forgot password, how do I reset it without losing info? I certainly dont want it to be reseted by apple with my info from work, thank you very much for further response.

    First, make sure caps lock is not on.
    You must back up all data before continuing, unless you've already done so. If you need to back up but can't log in, ask for instructions.
    If the user account is associated with an Apple ID, and you know the Apple ID password, then maybe the Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
    Otherwise*, boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
    When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar.
    In the Terminal window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window opens.
    Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Follow the prompts to reset the password. It's safest to choose a password that includes only the characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.
    You should now be able to log in with the new password, but your Keychain will be reset (empty.) If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as your login password), there's no way to recover it.
    *Note: If you've activated FileVault, this procedure doesn't apply. Follow instead the instructions on this page:
    If you forget the password and FileVault is on

    I know that iCloud backs-up apps and other stuff to your phone incase you want restore from a back-up if you start a New iPhone. My question is if I start a new iPhone (not use the restore from back-up option) and redownload apps like (Games, Instagram), would my pics show up on Instagram and would my Games show it was saved and the acccomplisments will remain from the last place I left out.

    Icloud or itunes backup, only backs up app data, not the app itself.
    so if you restore as new, then there is no app data on your phone, you start out new...

  • I hit Forget Network and now cannot get back onto my wireless home network. All of my other computers and iphones are fine.  How do I get the network back?  It shows in my list of networks but when I use the password and try to join it says not connected.

    See if the iPad will accept the password after you restart it. It's worth a try.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    You could also try a reset as well.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • When I try to update my iphone to IOS 7.1.2, ask me numerics password, how I can get it?

    When I try to apply the update IOS 7.1.2 to my Iphone 5, after I press install now, ask me a numerics password, how I can get this password or is an error. If it an error how to fix it?

    It wants the restrictions passcode. How you "get it" is you search your memory and remember what you set it to.
