How do you do a reset if you have lost the system password?
I have lost the password for logging in the ipad. How can I reset it?
If You Are Locked Out Or Have Forgotten Your Passcode
iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
iOS- Understanding passcodes
If you have forgotten your Restrictions code, then follow the instructions
below but DO NOT restore any previous backup. If you do then you will
simply be restoring the old Restrictions code you have forgotten. This
same warning applies if you need to restore a clean system.
A Complete Guide to Restore or Recover Your iDevice (if You Forget Your Passcode)
If you need to restore your device or ff you cannot remember the passcode, then you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and re-sync 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.
Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
Before restoring your iOS device, Apple recommends that you either sync with iTunes to transfer any purchases you have made, or back up new data (data acquired after your last sync). If you have movie rentals on the device, see iTunes Store movie rental usage rights in the United States before restoring.
Follow these steps to restore your device:
1. Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes before attempting to update.
2. Connect your device to your computer.
3. Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
4. Select the Summary tab.
5. Select the Restore option.
6. When prompted to back up your settings before restoring, select the Back Up
option (see in the image below). If you have just backed up the device, it is not
necessary to create another.
7. Select the Restore option when iTunes prompts you (as long as you've backed up,
you should not have to worry about restoring your iOS device).
8. When the restore process has completed, the device restarts and displays the Apple
logo while starting up:
After a restore, the iOS device displays the "Connect to iTunes" screen. For updating
to iOS 5 or later, follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. For earlier versions of
iOS, keep your device connected until the "Connect to iTunes" screen goes away or
you see "iPhone is activated."
9. The final step is to restore your device from a previous backup.
If you can not restore your device then you will need to go to recovery mode.
Placing your device into recovery mode:
Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the other end
of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the
red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake
and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake
and Home buttons.
3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device.
The device should turn on. Note: If you see the screen pictured below, let the device
charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then
start with step 2 again.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Additional Information:
Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

WAKE UP APPLE; YOU HAVE LOST THE PLOT!
Wake up Apple...you have lost the plot!
Obviously Apple does not currently use or test their products properly.
1) Why would you redesign the iPhone and put the headphone jack on the bottom of the phone; where you hold the phone to use the home button. Really annoying.
2) iTunes is now almost unususable; It takes forever to load and often freezes. Either it is poorly coded or they are doing some untowards stuff in the background that interupts/delays the programme from loading properly. Truely crap.....
3) The redesigned iTunes interface is very confusing and not intuitive. I have figured out how to use, but it wasn't easy and I'm a professional web user experience strategist.
4) The redesigned iTunes is missing some important functionality, i.e., the ability to see song totals and selected songs total weight/size. This makes it difficult to manage a large music collection.
5). Poor navigation functionality in the new iTunes; when you click 'see all' in any section, click on an album or song and then try to go back, you are sent to the category home page and not the 'see all' page. Frustrating....
6) iPhone 5 68G phone can not be fully loaded without the music player breaking (previously posted with may similar complaints).
7) I have all kinds of problems with the iPad 1 connecting properly to the new iTunes; iTunes continually tries to replicate files that I deleted directly from the iPad.
I suspect Apple is no longer driven by quality, but by release dates (the crap IOS maps programme is another example). I suspect they will continue to miss their financial targest until they WAKE UP!I love the new version of Grid view but some of the other changes feel like they still need some fine tuning. And I miss cover flow even if I didn't use it that often...
You can restore much of the look & feel of the previous version with these shortcuts:
Ctrl-B to turn on the menu bar.
Ctrl-S to turn on the sidebar.
Ctrl-/ to turn on the status bar.
Click the magnifying glass top right and untick Search Entire Library to restore the old search behaviour.
Use View > Hide <Media Kind> in the cloud or Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the cloud purchases to hide previous purchases that you've deleted from your library. The second method eliminates the cloud status column (and may, perhaps, let iTunes start-up more quickly).
If you want to roll back to iTunes 10.7 first download a copy of the 32 bit installer or 64 bit installer as appropriate, uninstall iTunes and suppporting software, i.e. Apple Application Support & Apple Mobile Device Support. Reboot. Restore the pre-upgrade version of your library database as per the diagram below, then install iTunes 10.7.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to scan the media folder and catch up with any changes made since the backup file was created.

I have lost the system preferences application. How do i restore it?
Hi,
I have lost the system preferences application. How do I restore it?If you have had Time Machine running on your computer, you may be able to get it back from a backup.
However, since System Preferences contains more than just the application (it also contains modules that are kept in [$HOME]/Library/PreferencePanes on your startup disk), then you may need to restore them too if they do not exist on your system either.
Granted, having a missing System Preferences could be disasterous... at the least, you can't set your preferences, but at the most, system services (whether Apple or 3rd party) could be broken. Because of this, the above advice is not guaranteed.
The only sure-fire way of getting your System Preferences back is to re-install your system.
Important note: TheDave413's note about the Dock is also a very useful tip, since the Dock keeps an alias of the System Preferences app rather than a copy of it. If that is all that's missing, you can easily re-create it yourself without any of the above drastic action!

Nokia you have lost the plot !!
Today nokia suite informs me that today belle is available for down load !! ( Running o2 in uk ) yeah right .not sure o2 have agreed yet nokia site still says awaiting approval !! for my code maybe some one up at nokia aint up to speed to update site ( seems a few up nokia are nt up to speed these days )
Well iv read these forums for years sat back a tried to decipher the good from the bad to the bias peoples posts and to be truthful this belle update sounds pretty grim from the more techy types to the need for biz types of user to the general type user like my self who just wants a GOOD high end phone.
Im running Anna on my N8 00 and its fine stable does what it says on the tin. So how come some geeks from nokia can come along with all the hype an try well it seems sucessfully distroy Anna with this bug laden OS Belle and still be employed.its beyond words Nokia.
Many want a return to Anna but there is no way back (there is if you google to the right sites ) thats not the issue of my post
The issue is .............. DAB yes Nokia " DAB " radio !! do you remember perhaps you may remember the £50+ plus i paid for it Buying the only head set from you that will not work !!! only to read which im pleased i did that the second off last answer on the Belle FAQ page explains that the Dab radio is not available in Belle !!!! so where or wot do i do with these expensive headphones ( come come now readers lets not lower the tone of this site )
so my point is having paid £400 for the phone £50 + for the head phones you expect me at the click of a button to upgrade to a new expirience the expirience being NO DAB RADIO and an expensive new expirience for the drawer..... " the redundant head set" . Come on nokia you really have lost the plot
That apple is starting to look not as bad after all !!!
Neville
Solved!
Go to Solution.DAB radio should now be available at Nokia Store. Please login to Nokia Store and look for "Nokia DAB Radio".

How do you re-set the master password without knowing what it is?
I set up a master password, and can't remember it. I haven't activated the filevault, so from what I read, that is good. But I still don't know how to re-set the master password if I don't have the old one to change it. Please help. I have too many albums in iTunes, documents, and calander events that have not been backed up, so I don't want to reinstall the software, if that is an option. At least not until I can pick up an external backup.
I forget where I read this, but to eliminate an existing filevault "master password", delete the files 'FileVaultMaster.cer' and 'FileVaultMaster.keychain' in your computer's main '/Library/Keychains/' folder (not through "Keychain Access.app"). You should then be able to set a new "master password" in the "Security" preference pane if you ever decide to use "filevault" again. Note that if you do this while an account is still encrypted (ie. with filevault enabled), that account will not be accessible with the new "master password".

How do you set up the update password page in ADFS 3.0
Hello,
We have recently migrated to ADFS 3.0. Everything is working except the update password feature. In the KB article
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn280950.aspx the section under Update Password says that I need to enable the ADFS endpoint -
/adfs/portal/updatepassword/ and restart the ADFS service.
This has been done, but when I go to
https://sts.domain.com/adfs/portal/updatepassword. All I get is a page that says "An error occurred. contact your administrator."
What I am trying to accomplish is this.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn280950.aspx
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

workplace joined machines
<QUOTE>
The update password page is only available for Workplace Joined devices

How do you re-set the four digit password when your son, the comedian, thinks it was funny to change the password, but now cannot remember what he changed it to? the phone goes inactive for 60 minutes, but I can't figure out how to get a reset. Thanks, kel
You're in trouble. You'll have to force the phone into recovery mode & restore it to remove the passcode:
Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new. -
How do you reset the iPad if you've forgotten the master password and threw out the gift reciept?
Contact the person that gave it to you. See if they have a receipt.
Apple doesn't use the term master password.
There are two different locking mechanisms: passcode, prevents access to your data, and activation lock, prevents use of device if stolen. You do not want the students setting the activation lock.
If the passcode is set & forgotten , you can reload from backup or wipe ( first typed whip ) the device.
iPhone or iPad locked from incorrect passcode.
If you enter the wrong passcode six or more times, you'll see a message that says Ipad is disabled.
See how to restore from backup. No back up on your computer, click on the triangle before "If you have never synced your device with iTunes, or you do not have access to a computer"
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT1212
The problem arises when someone sets the activation lock which is set by logging onto your apple id then setting the appropriate option. DEP is the preferred preventative. It established your organization as the owner. The student cannot set an activation log.
