    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.

    Without the Activation Lock removed by the previous owner, your phone can't be set up again with your Apple ID and can't be used.
    Apple can't do anything about this, sorry.

    You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.
    You can restore from a backup if you have one from BEFORE you set the restrictions passcode.

      2. iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
      3. 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 do not have a
              backup to restore, then restore as New.
    If you are restoring to fix a forgotten Restrictions Code or as a New device, then skip Step 9 and restore as New.

  • How do you return to the current menu when playing dvd?

    Hello everyone,
    I am authoring a dvd that has 3 submenus with several chapters in each. How do I set it up so that if I am watching a chapter in submenu 3, I will return to it if I end it or hit "menu". Right now it keeps defaulting back to the main menu, and I have to navigate to the 2nd or 3rd, depending on what I want to watch.
    Is there a way to do this? I can't seem to find it in the manual.
    Anyhelp is greatly appreciated.
    Ymir

    A few approaches, one way is to set a variable to keep trakc of which menu you are on, then set the menu command for the track to a script
    Here is a thread where a detailed this process and there is also a link to a project you can download.
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=6585885#6585885
    You would set the menu command to the same as the end jump.
    There are also other ways, but that will work. Another way is to set the menu command action for the chapter markers themselves. Also note that you may want to consider what you want the menu command to do If you play through the first ten markers (let's say) marker 11 may be on the 2nd selection menu, and you will probably want people to go there. In that case bypass the scripts and just set the menu jumps in the connection tab

  • HT1320 how do i unlock my ipod if i dont know the pass code

    i dont know my passcode and i need to get into my ipod

    Hello calebwhite50
    You would need to put your iPod touch into recovery mode and then use iTunes to restore it. Once the restore is complete and you have a backup, within iTunes or iCloud, you can put that back up back on without the passcode coming back.
    iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
    Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    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 shut down.
    While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
    iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then restore the device.

  • How can I reset my passcode, when I dont have the original code?

    My nieces were playing with Siri/phone and accidently set up a passcode on my phone, I can't unlock or open etc. Apple is no help at this moment.
    Tried troubleshooting with iTunes, but an error message states the iPhone can not be syncked because passcode is locked.,

    The easiest solution and apparently the only approved solution via Apple (although a pain if you haven't backed up your device) to restore the phone if you can't figure out the passcode. It will erase everything but if you have a fairly recent backup then you will be fine...you may only lose anything that was added after the last backup. You can also try searching the Apple Support pages and forum to see if there is another solution. Ultimately, it's a plus to a certain degree that there is no easy way to change the passcode....if someone "found" it and wanted to try to get in to it....but it's a pain when it's a situation like yours.
