How do i change my passcode back to 4 digits

Hi
I had my simple 4 digit passcode set up and for some reason ive accidently managed to change it to the longer 8 digit passcode option which i dont want. The passcode lock section wont allow me to select the simple passcode bit as it is greyed out and inactive.
How do i change it back to a 4 digit simple code ???

If you have set up a corporate Exchange account on your phone, the administrators have the ability to enforce passcode requirements. They may have set it to require a longer passcode for security. Delete the Exchange account and try again. If it works, add the Exchage account back. If it makes you re-set it to an 8 digit passcode, then you will either have to live with it or live without the Exchange account.

    Then restore via iTunes. The iOS device will be erased. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store   
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

    how do i change the passcode for using my ipad which i created when i set up findmyiphone.  this is different from my apple id and password

    On both your devices go to Settings>iCloud, then scroll down and click "Delete Account". You can then sign back in using your updated details.
    Note: "Delete Account" will not delete data from iCloud, it will simply remove the account from your device.

    Do not try to backup directly before the restore. If you do, the backup will also have the passcode information. So if you restore that backup, you'll just put the passcode back on.
    The backup does not contain the passcode.  Restoring the backup does not put it back on the phone.

  • I made a big mistake to change the setting of my Mac book pro to "me only". Now ofcourse It cannot open the login page, for how would the mac know it is me? How can I change the setting back to "everyone"?

    I made a big mistake to change the setting of my Mac book pro to "me only". Now ofcourse It cannot open the login page, for how would the mac know it is me? How can I change the setting back to "everyone"? I have back up in the past but the last month I have not. I really want to keep the data.
    So how can I go in and change the setting, It stays ofcourse at the apple screen with wheel. All info is there and the computer works fine, just cannot use it or have been able to log in.

    wjosten is spot on.  If you really want iCloud, then you will need to acquire a new or second hand MBP that can run Lion.

  • How do I change the language back to english as it is running in chinese

    How do I change the language back to English as it is running in Chinese?

    On your keyboard, press the CTRL and the , (comma) keys at the same time
    You will see a box like this:
    Stay on the first tab (as shown) and select the drop-down menu as arrowed
    English (UK variety) is the fifth one from the top. US variety English is the sixth one
    Select your choice and click on OK
    There will be an additional piece of text under the menu now; it simply tells you that you need to close and re-open iTunes for the language change to take effect.
    That's it!

    how do I change the language back to english as it is running in dutch in error at the moment. I have uninsatlled and reinstalled itunes to no avail

    Launch iTunes. If you don't currently have your menu bar up, go control-B to bring it up. Now from the "Berwerken" menu select "Voorkeuren...", as per the following screenshot:
    That gets you through to the preferences tabs. Now in the "Algemene" tab, go down to the "Taal" drop down menu. Select one of the two "Engels" entries (one is English UK and one is English US), as per the following screenshot:
    ... and click "OK".
    Quit and restart your iTunes and you should now be seeing English again.

    You can tell apple that you'd like it and see if they respond....eventually. (you don't get responses from your feedback mails but they have been known to issue changes that users have asked for, such as the ability to mass delete apps)

  • HT4061 How can you get a Passcode back!?

    I changed my passcode because of a fear that someone would
    get into my iPad. But I wasn't smart enough to WRITE it DOWN!!
    So I was wondering if ANYONE knew how to get their passcode
    without having to start it OVER again!
    PLEASE answer back!
    Thanks,
    ~ILUVMANGA12~

    Glad that helped.
    Enjoy your iPad!
    By the way, I think keeping a passcode lock is an excellent idea - just try not to forget it.

  • How do I change my computer back to being able to use American cds and dvds? I accidentally changed it when I was in Europe and can't figure out how to change it back.

    I went to Europe and watched some movies on my computer that were made there. I would just change my computer back and forth from American to European movies. I didn't notice that you could only do that 5 times. On my fifth switch I changed it to European and now I am unable to change it back and I am back in the US. How can I change this back?
