    how do you reset a forgotten restrictions password?

    Uness you have a backup that was made before you added the Restrictions passcode, you have to restore to factory defaults/new iPod.  If the backup contains the Restriction passcode, it will be restored.

    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.

  • HT1911 how can you retrieve your passcode for your ipod if you have forgotten it?

    how can you retrieve your passcode for your ipod touch if you have forgotten it and it became disabled?

    You cannot retrieve it.
    You can do as the manual tells you to do and restore the ipod.
    If you are unable to restore, then type "unable to restore" into the search bar at the top of this page by Support and read the resulting help articles.

  • I have never set up a passcode but when I try to reset my phone it is asking for a passcode. Is there a generic code? Or how do I retrieve an existing/forgotten passcode?

    I have never set up a passcode on my iphone 4S but when I try to reset my phone it is asking for a 4 digit passcode.  Is there a generic code? Or how do I retrieve an existing/forgotten passcode?

    You will need to put your phone in recovery mode and then restore using iTunes.

  • HT1430 How can I reset my forgotten restrictions passcode?

    How can I reset my forgotten restrictions passcode?

    You need to restore the iPad as a new device and not restore the backup, if the backup contains the restrictions passcode. If the a kip does not contain the passcode, you can restore it after you restore to factory settings.
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support
    There are also third party apps that claim to be able to recover your passcode for you. If you want to look at any of those just do a Google search "forgot iPad restrictions passcode".

  • How do you retrieve old voicemail messages?

    I can't get my old voicemail after the voicemail upgrade.  How do you retrieve old messages?

    is there a way to look at old text messages that were saved during backup to itunes/icloud.  I don't necessarily want them back on my phone and don't want to loose the text messages on my phone now.  Can they be saved to a different file on my computer from itunes so they can be printed out.

  • How do you retrieve a Collection of objects using JDBC?

    How do you retrieve a Collection of objects using JDBC.
    MORE INFO:
    I have created a class i.e. Account class and I want to retrieve all the accounts previously created for accounts in my Mysql database..
    my method would retrieve an array of Account instances in the database i.e.
    public Vector retrieveAccounts();

    Connection con = null;
    ArrayList accounts = new ArrayList();
    try{
      con = DriverManager.getConnection(...);
      PreparedStatement ps = con.prepareStatement("select * from accounts");
      Resultset rs = ps.executeQuery();
      while (rs.next()) {
        Account account = new Account(rs.getString(1), rs.getString(2), ...);
        accounts.add(account);
      Account[] account_array = new Account[accounts.size()];
      accounts.toArray(account_array);
    catch (SQLException sqle) {
       sqle.printStackTrace();
    finally {
      if (con != null) {
        con.close();
    }should pretty much to what you want, you will obviously need to change it so that, a) the SQL query is correct and b) the Account class is correct and c) the correct values are taken from the result set to create an account.
