How do u unlock the phone when you forget your password

We can not remember the password & have been locked out of the phone. How do I unlock it?

You have to connect to iTunes and restore in Recovery Mode. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808. Any data not backed up will be lost.

What is the url when you forget your password?

What is the url that needs to be entered when you forget your password to retrieve it?

Can I just point out the obvious? (Well, it is to me at any rate!)
If there was a URL that "needs to be entered" (I assume you mean a URL to be visited), in order to retrieve your password when you forget it, wouldn't that enable those people you know and wish to prevent getting in to your iPod (which - presumably, is why you put the password on it) to go to that same URL, get your password and use it to get into your Touch?
Or is it me?

Repeating the message 'Did you forget your password? "message. Help

When I try to login to the iTunes store or check my account I get the error message:
*Did you forget your password? Your password was incorrectly entered numerous times and for your protection, you will need to retrieve it before continuing to use the iTunes store'*
Of course I have followed the link, re-set my password, tried to log in and I get the message again - and again - and again
the iphone works normally.
any ideas?

as you suspected, when you click on that "Did you forget your password" link on your local install, you're supposed to be taken to the screen where you can have your password reset to a system-generated value. after resetting the password, an email is then sent to the email address associated with that users record. having said this, can you let me know the URL to which that link is directing you on your local install (sending it to [email protected] would be great)? it sounds as if it's not pointing to the right place...for some reason. to be thorough, could you maybe include the url of the screen you're coming from as well? maybe there'll be a clue there as to what might be causing your issue.
thanks,

What do you do when you forget your password? I am trying to install photoshop and before a window comes up saying it's locked and I have to put in my password to continue. What password and what do I do if I don't remember it!!!

Trying to install photoshop. I get a window that comes up with a lock icon under the Adobe icon and it wants me to give the computer permission to add photoshop so it's asking for a password. I don't know which password it wants and I fear I have forgotten my main password for this computer!
I see to change your password, you have to know your old one. Any help out there?

The Username and password required is that of an Admin User.
If you only ever created your original account, that is your account and your password.
If you auto-login, and never use that password so that you can't remember it, Your Mac is incapable of telling you -- it was encrypted as it was entered the first time, and is never stored "in the clear".
You can change the Admin password, if you can remember your Apple-ID and password.

When i try to buy a song on the itunes store it says something about verifying my security questions. How do i get new ones if you forget your password?

Any help?

If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) on your account then the steps half-way down this page will give you a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

how do you unlock a phone when you dont know the password?

Connect in recovery mode and restore, you'll get the option to reset the passcode during this process:
iOS: Unable to update or restore and 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.

My phone was run over. It still works but the screen is smashed and I cannot unlock the phone from find my iphone. How can I unlock the phone so I can save my photos? It was not backed up in iCloud. I

My phone was run over. It still works enough to see some of the screen but not the number pad. I cannot unlock the phone because I activated find my iphone. How can I unlock the phone so I can save my photos? Is there a way to unlock it from find my iphone. It was not backed up in iCloud. When I plug it into my computer, the computer tells me that I have to unlock it first. Help?

No I haven't synced my iPhone with the computer I'm currently using. The computer that I normally sync my iPhone with is being repaired.
I read a nearly identical question to mine (in which you answered) and I found my the answer. Thanks!
Now I have a few more questions: If I mail my broken iPhone to Asurion, will I be able to get my data off of my iPhone once Asurion has it? And what will happen to my old iPhone and the data on it if I activate my replacement iPhone? Will my broken iPhone just become de-activated and will the data be erased or lost or something? Could I still sync it (with the computer ir originally synced with) and back up the data?
Thanks.

I use find my iphone but by mistake I locked it so how can I unlock the phone.

If it has been Disabled after entering the wrong passcode - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212.
Unfortunately, you must restore it in iTunes on your computer. There is no way to retrieve a forgotten pass lock code.
You will need to Restore your device from the same computer that you most recently synced to. See - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414.
If it has been Disabled after entering the wrong passcode - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212.
