How do you reset your passcode on the iphone 4?

How do you change your passcode with an iphone 4? My son can't remember his passcode :-)

You should contact the owner of the iPhone, and ask.
You'll need to connect your iPhone to the computer with which you first sync'd to iTunes.  If you respond with, "Gosh darn it, that computer broke, or maybe I sold it, or perhaps it burned up when I installed new software", or something similar to that, you're implying that the iPhone is stolen.  Don't blame your son.

  • HT1386 How do you sync your itunes from the Iphone to the macbook pro?

    How do you sync your itunes from the iphone to the macbook pro? 
    Let's say, I have an Iphone 3GS and it was synced to my older pc (I know...) and it crashed and I can't retrieve my files on there.  I want everything that I have on my 3Gs: photos, videos, music, notes, voice recordings, etc...  Now, I recently upgraded to 4Gs.  I can sync almost everything via icloud but there are files like photos, videos, other music that I cannot sync or for some weird reason it won't work over the cloud.  So I want to move all of those information to my macbook pro (upgraded from pc... yes!).  How do I move everything in my iphone backed up to my itunes in my mac book so that I can sync it to my new 4Gs? 

    I have a 3GS IPhone and have not been able to find Cloud on it anywhere (I was instructed to go to Settings, General, etc). I have also been told I should download update from I Tunes and have not been successful doing that either. I know my I Pad has the Cloud and I am wanting to sync the calendar from the phone to the pad. Any suggestions?

  • How do you reset your passcode so that you can get back into your iphone if you forgot it?

    i changed my passcode to get into my iphone and i went away and when i got back i had forgot my passcode, and i really need to get into my iphone how do i get into it even though i have forgot my passcode?

    Options for when an iOS device gets locked because of forgotten password:
    Restore (and reset password) on your device by connecting it to the last computer to which it was connected:
    iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring iOS software - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    If you cannot connect it to the computer to which the device was last connected you will have to use recovery mode to completely reset the device, losing all data:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 - recovery mode (e.g., cannot connect to computer last used to sync device, iTunes still asks for a password)

  • How do you reset your passcode it you forget it

    My son forgot his passcode on his ipod touch.  Not it has completely locked him out.  Is there a way to reset it? 

    You'll need to connect it to the iTunes library you normally sync it with and restore it.  If iTunes asks you for this passcode before it will let you proceed, connect the iPod to iTunes in recovery mode instead using the instructions in this Apple support document.

  • HT201272 I see that new 11.0.4 Itunes has issues?  How do you get your itunes on the iphone 5?

    Tried getting some help earlier today but didn't have much luck.  Some apple gooroos couldn't understand why I can't get my Itunes on my new Iphone 5 (replacement for the one my wife put in the washing machine).  I sensed some frustration from those who could not help.  Perhaps this new version of Itunes may be the problem?  For those of you who were not involved earlier, my new phone will not pick up my itunes.  Yes I am under the 5 unit limit, yes I have synced with I cloud, yes my new device is set up for auto download for music, yes I have tried syncing with my mac and my Itunes page.   Nothing works, not even a new song purchase.  I can see the music, just cant get it to go to music so I can listen to it.

    I think there is a misconception here. You need to sign into your iPHone with the same Apple ID as you used for the purchases on your computer. Then you should see the past purchased content on your iPhone to redownload.
    Sign into your iPhone with the same ID here:

  • How do you reset your ipod using the computer?

    i don't no how

    You can't "reset" it through your computer. You can, however, restore it, if that's what you mean:

  • TS1424 hi all how do you reset your security questions. i can not remember the answers. how do you reset them? i cant buy anything because it keeps coming up

    hi all how do you reset your security questions. i can not remember the answers. how do you reset them? i cant buy anything because it keeps coming up

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you should see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you won't get the reset option - you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get them reset.
    e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
    or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    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 this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312 . Or you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570

    How do you reset your security questions if you do not know the answers?

    If you have a rescue email address set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address set up then go to Express Lane and select 'iTunes' from the list of 'products' in the middle of the screen.
    Then select 'iTunes Store', and on the next screen select 'Account Management'
    Next choose 'iTunes Store Account Questions' or 'iTunes Store account security' (it appears to vary by country) and fill in that you'd like your security questions/answers reset.
    You should get an email reply within about 24 hours (and check your Spam folder as well as your Inbox).

  • HT5312 how do you reset your security questions when the rescue email address no longer exists?

    how do you reset your security questions when the rescue email address no longer exists?

    Didn't the link to contact the iTunes Store staff in the 'Additional Information' section of that article work for you? If you don't already have a valid rescue email address, only Apple itself can reset the questions.

  • HT201363 How can you reset your security questions if you can't remember the answers?

    Hello! my question is how can you reset your security questions if you don't remember the answers?

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, or clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed in either article, filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • HT1212 iTunes could not connect to the iPhone "Rasmus's iPhone" because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the iPhone before it can be used with iTunes. - How do I do this?

    iTunes could not connect to the iPhone “Rasmus's iPhone” because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the iPhone before it can be used with iTunes. - Why is that?

    iTunes is asking you to provide the passcode that was created when the device was activated.
    You are able to get around the passcode if you know the apple id login and password and are able to restore the device back to default settings.
    See this article for further directions:
