How to get my passcode on iPad?

Hi,
I downloaded iOS 7 and it asked me to enter a passcode for syncing using icloud. I created one and now can't recall the passcode - so can't access my iPad! How can I get my passcode? Is there a facillity on itunes that allows users to recover forgotten passcodes?

    how do I reset passcode when Ipad is disabled

    Restore, if iTunes will let you.  Everything except the password will be restored.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  Be forewarned that it takes a long time.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

  • Notes disappearing off ipad  but see them in icloud how to get them back on ipad

    disappearing notes in notes app but see them in icloud
    i had 10 notes in my iOS5.1 ipad then I turned on icloud with notes
    all the notes went up to the notes folder on icloud mail plus some were duplicated on  icloud - than a day later I went to my notes app on the ipad to use them  and all were missing but 2 notes -- I can't figure out how to get them back on to the ipad under notes -  I saw lots of people having the same issue but no resolution to fix - can you give me any ideas  - I only have 2 devices   ipad and pc with icloud
    thanks marsha

    Hi Michael, thanks for replying. Yes, I meant the music videos. I want to keep on using Match but at the same time I want my music vids included as music. The alternative is to consider them a basic "movies" but it is just not it... It is also strange that I can not delete from the iPad a downloaded song from match without turning of Match on the iPad. Well, we´ll have to live with it.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

  • HT1212 How to get a passcode if I have forgotten one after updating my ipad

    How to enable my ipad as I have my passcode is not working after update

    Try this first - I saw a recent post where a user with the same problem after an iOS update used his Apple ID password.
    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased.

  • How to disable a ipod 5th gen and how to get the passcode ?

    I just bought ant ipod 5th gen from Americans store but it was a display when I got ready to set it up it don't let me go pass the disable  connect to iTunes screen. I try restoring it but it don't let me it takes about 1 hour to load and then it gets to the same screen it asks me to enter the passcode on the ipod and then continue with the restoring but I can't enter the passcode sense it won't let me go more then the disable connect to iTunes screen. Plz help me.

    Disabled
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    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:

    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.
    You may have to:L
    Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall.
    - Next try the manual install method of:

    Place the iPod in recovery mode after the firmware download is complete and then restore using the instructions in the article. Sometimes recovery mode timeouts and returns to disabled before the firmware download is complete.

  • How to get calendar back onto ipad and macbook after icloud install

    I have just migrated from mobileme to icloud. I now have no calendar on my ipad and only one child's calender (out of three childrens +2 other calendars) shows up on my macbook and entries are changed to wrong days. I have everything on my iphone but do not want to plug it in for fear of losing all data (I do have a back up on an external HD) How do I get all the correct data from my iphone calendar to the ipad and macbook? I have checked discussions and there are many similiar issues but no replies with resolution. thank you

    Problem resolved. I went onto my laptop>System Pref>Mail,Contact,Calendars. A dialog window repeatedly opened asking me to Deny or Allow access. I went thru iCloud, mobileme (mail, contacts and calendars), several AIM accounts and all my mail accounts and populated the accounts window. I then went to my iPhone>Settings >iCloud and turned off calendars (saving calendars on my iphone), turned calendars back on and voila:Full functionality of my calendars on my laptop.

  • How to get Safari bookmarks into iPad Air?

    I have an iMac running the current version of OS X. Also have an iPad Air with IOS 8.1.3. How can I get my Safari bookmarks on the iMac over to this iPad? Because of Apple no longer allowing simple ID's, I had to create a new ID. Trying to use this same ID on my iMac, iPad, and iPhone did not work - I spent hours trying to sort that out and gave up. Anyway, how can I get my bookmarks copied over?
    Thanks, Jim

    Oh, if I only knew the answer to that question. Somewhere, somehow, something got screwed up with my "new" Apple ID and the underlying email accounts. I spoke on the phone to an Apple support guy who finally gave up after 30 minutes. As it stands now, all three devices see the same email messages - very good thing. However contacts, notes and anything else on the iMac are not shared on th iPhone and iPad. The goofy thing is that those items DO share between the iPhone and the iPad, but anything I do on either of those devices is not sync'd over to the iMac. I've spent so much time messing with it that my head hurts. I wish I could simply clear out all three and start over, but the way things have worked out so far, I'd probably wind up with NOTHING working. Very, very annoying.
