Hard reset and security code (not activated)

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to Clear my device, but it asks me for the security code, though the security code is not activated in the security settings...
I tried every code I thought pertinent :
- Default code : 12345
- MfE code : ****
- And some other codes...
But it didn't work... I think that the default security code doesn't work because security code is not activated... but I don't want to take the risk to lock my phone, and to not know my security code...
Is it safe to activate security code, to try with de default code ?
Thank you for your help !

Did you setup up MfE of Track and Protect on your phone before? Have a look here and see if it helps

Loss of sound (Hard-reset and restore does not work)

Hi,
I loss all sounds on my iPad 2 (currently on iOS 7.04). This is the 2nd time I have had this issue (had it with an earlier iPad) and had to replace the previous one (out of warranty period). Very frustrating as it is about the same time period after purchase. Last time, it seemed like a repeated fault with the iPad and I cannot believe I have the same issue again on a different product. It is an expensive way of having to re-buy every couple of years for no other reason.
It did not happen immediately after an update i.e. it does not appear to be "update" or iOS version-related.
Anyone got any advice please? The facts are as follows (and what I have tried).
When it happened?
I was in iMovie editing a movie when all sound went from the speaker. It continued to work with earphones plugged in, but this is now intermittent. I have no sound on the speaker at all except for when I click sounds on the menu and change the level of ringer alert (which works on the speakers). This seems to tell me that it is a software problem. I have no sound on any applications or internet video or music from iTunes. I cannot survive on the earphones as they only work for a period of time and then they fail (until I take the jack out again when it works again for a period of time before the headphones fail again).
What have I tried?
a) Numerous hard resets
b) changing the side switch's position
c) changing in general settings the side switch settings from lock rotation to mute and back again (repeatedly and in reverse to see if it makes any difference)
d) resetting all settings - this made no difference
e) erase all content and settings - interestingly at the stage when it asked me if I wanted to restore from an iCloud account, it was making sounds (the keyboard clicks - which don't make a sound irrespective of the click setting currently) i.e. appeared to have resolved the issue and as soon as I restored my iCloud back-up, the sound went again.
I would be grateful for any suggestions. This post also includes a recommendation to Apple on improving its product (relating to iCloud backups) as the ultimate solution should not be paying for a replacement for a software issue (to avoid losing all my data permanently).
My musings are that:
a) it is definitively a software issue (on account that the speakers work in certain situations only)
b) it appears to be that the software is corrupted in my iCloud back up
c) it is an issue that happens regularly and is an avoidable issue/cost to Apple's customers that needs to receive higher priority in being addressed as it is built in redundancy for a significant proportion of customers. At the very least, iCloud backups should be capable of being restored in part - is there any way this could be done so we don't lose all of our notes, media etc if the final advice is to "start again". How can it be right to lose all content because of an Apple system software issue? I am pre-guessing this will be the final advice (if I don't want to pay for a replacement iPad)?
Please help me and all those others with the same avoidable software problem.
Thank you,
Peter

This is an iPad user to user forum, so you are not addressing Apple.
Try this - 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. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. It can be used as a rotation lock to keep the screen from automatically reorienting itself as you move around, but you need to have the tablet’s settings configured properly. That same switch, right above the volume buttons, can also be set to function instead as a mute button to silence certain types of audio.
If the switch is set to work as a mute button, you can change its purpose to “screen-rotation lock” by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen. On the Settings screen, tap General on the left side, and on the right side of the screen flick down to “Use Side Switch to.” Tap to select Lock Rotation or Mute to set the button’s function. Even if you set the side switch for your preferred use, you can still mute the Mini or lock the screen. Just double-click the Home button, and when the panel of apps appears along the bottom edge of the screen, flick the row from left to right with your finger. Tap the icon on the far left side of the row to either lock the iPad’s screen or mute the iPad’s alerts, notifications and sound effects. Music, podcasts and video are not muted unless you turn the volume all the way down.

I have an older nano (4th gen?) and it will not shut off and when you try to skip through songs it skips itself back. Buttons seem to be pushing themselves. I've tried doing a hard reset and it did not work.

My older nano is not working. I have to keep it plugged in all the time because it does not shut off. The buttons only work sometimes and then they scroll and skip forward and backward by themselves. I have checked updates and I have also reset it back to factory and it is not working.

Hello mistymorrill
If after all that you have tried and your iPod nano is still not working, the refer the page below for further options.

You need to use the credentials for the iCloud account that was used to turn on the Find my iPhone service.
If you can't remember yours, you can recover it here: https://iforgot.apple.com/appleid
If you've been walking around for 2 years with someone else's account set up for Find my iphone, then you'll have to get hold of that individual. If you can't, there is no way to bypass activation lock.

Try here > iTunes Store: My credit card's security code or zip code does not match my bank's records

has anyone experienced this i want to update my card details on my account but it says card expired even when i put in the new expiry date and security codes.

Reset the device:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
Then edit your payment details.
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings. Then try again.

How to reset my security code?

how to reset my security code to standard if i forgot my security code
Moderator's Note: The subject was edited as we have moved the post from an existing thread and created a new topic.

Because Nokia Software Recovery Tool does not support the Nokia-Dead-USB-Mode for neither Symbian or a Nokia Series 40 phone, you cannot bypass a screen/keylock which is protected by the security code. However, if the phone does not give that lock-screen – is booting up and your able to select the USB mode on the phone – then you are able to apply the Nokia Software Recovery Tool – which resets the security code back to its initial state (no value set or 12345).

When I tried to log into my itunes account, I was asked to update my credit card information. When I confirmed my credit card info, I got a response about my security code not being accurate -which is not the case-it is 100% accurate. How do I fix?

I keep getting a message about my security code not being accurate. I tried 3 different cards & have the same issue. Is this a systems issue? I need to get my apps installed on my new iPhone 4. I am unable to download without confirming my credit card info- My security codes are 100% accurate.Anyone else having this issue? What is the fix for this?

Ohemod,
There are 120+ countries that have iTunes Stores, but that leaves many that do not. You can consult this document: iTunes Store: Which types of items can I buy in my country?
Opening in a new country requires a tremendous amount of legal, commercial and financial investment, but I am sure Apple would be interested in knowing where there is unmet demand. If you wish to make suggestions to Apple, you can use the iTunes Feedback page.

There is more data storage on the hard drive and I can not find it (should be deleted)

Hi I need some help, i recently bought a Macbook Pro, so good with that but when storing my files I realized I had sent more files, I deleted my files and it took me hours! and when checking the status of storage I realized I had more 20GB hard drive and I can not find that data stored anywhere! and i made the securely empty.
P.S. I had a small problem when cleaned the trash, I stopped for lack of time but when i stop it, I realized I had nothing inside then... (should leave something at least, because it was an incomplete process.)
(here says that i have 40.54 GB from other stuff, and i'm just using like 13Gb of my data) its in spanish by the way... sorry for that.
Thanks for your patience!

Other (Otros) is everything but Applications according to your chart. That includes operating system and files.

When I am trying to sign in to iTunes Store. I am requested to enter a password to the wrong Apple ID mail which does not belong to me... I can't connect to iTunes store and my Viber and Facetime are not active.

My Apple ID was disabled. I reseted it successfully. Afterwards, when I am trying to update the pending apps in App Store on my phone, in order to sign in to iTunes Store I am requested to enter a password to the wrong Apple ID which definitely does not belong to me ('[email protected]'). Of course, I don't know this password and, consequently, I can't connect to Itunes Store on my Iphone. As a result my Viber and Facetime are not active in the meanwhile. What should I do? Thanks in advance for kind help and solution.

Where did you get this iPhone?
Was it new or second hand?
You have to sign out then sign in with the correct Apple ID and password.
Settings > iTunes & App Store > Apple ID: > do it here.

Hard reset and error message sys(0505) (0.841)

My Lifedrive freezes continuously so I guess I need to do a hard reset and start adding programs one by one. I have just done a hard reset but find when I sync that all my old files (and problems) return. My Lifedrive will not let me delete old programs so can anyone help me to delete them on my computer so they are completely gone. Many thanks for any help.
Post relates to: LifeDrive

Hi, and welcome to the Palm Community Forums.
The error message is raised here frequently. Search on 0505 and you'll find them. It is typically caused by installing MyPalm or MyTreo or MyHand (a handango mobile app) onto a PDA where it does not belong...they are for SmartPhones only. If you delete the offending application, the error should go away.
If you cannot delete apps from your LifeDrive, you'll need to rename the Backup folder on your desktop to Backupold. Then Hard Reset, and sync. Your Backup folder is located on this path:
c > program files > palm (or palmone) > [your device folder, usually an abbreviation of your Palm's name, or perhaps a combination of your initials, etc.] > backup
Good luck.

I have been trying to download the movie Prometheus onto my Ipad. It sticks at 793mb and hasn't moved for hours. I have 48gb of space on my i-pad and have hard resetted and turned off and switched back on, always reconnecting with wi-fi immediately. It doesn't resume?
I haven't even received an email stating I have been charged for it???
Any ideas??

Well I have an update. I decided to stay as I was so far down the road. They gave me an engineer appointment of 14 of August which was totally disgusting.
I rang up to complain and was promised a call back as they tried to expediate my request. Never happened.
Whilst on these calls I also questioned the validity of sending another engineer unless they first checked that my local cabinet hard an available fibre port. I was promised and promised that they would put the notes on the call and it would not be a wasted engineer visit.
Engineer came today. Wasted visit - no ports on the cabinet.
He was not even sure why he was sent there knowing there were no ports. Talk about the blind leading the blind.
The incompetency of this corporation is absolutely astounding even when their customers are telling them they are going to fail they lie to your face just to appease you on the phone and move you on.
So I ordered my switch from sky to BT on June 6th.. and so far all I have is a phone line.
On top of this I noticed that they have charged me a late payment fee by DD and full line rental for first month. BT were so slow at installing it all that my up front line rental apparently did not cover their initialy switch over. Despite telling me I would not be charged I have been charged.
Now as a web designer I am now tempted to create basic website and use my SEO skills to push it to top of google rankings sharing with everyone of my experience of BT.

First use JPanel not Panel.
Panel panels[]=new Panel[4];becomes
JPanel panels[]=new JPanel[4];Then refactor your code so that you use arrays correctly:
panels=new Panel();
panels.setLayout(new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.LEFT));becomes
panels=new JPanel();
panels[i].setLayout(new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.LEFT));
I did the above changes to your code and it worked fine.
