how to reboot my iphone in itunes, when i forgot my password on the iphone?

Force the phone into recovery mode, as described here, & restore it:

Or, login to iCloud.com, locate the phone, then erase it.
Either method will remove the passcode.

How to reset your Apple ID security questions
Go to appleid.apple.com and click on the blue button that says 'Manage Your Apple ID'.
Log in with your Apple ID and password. If you have forgotten your Apple ID password, go to iforgot.apple.com first to reset your password with a password recovery email.
Go to the Password & Security section on the left side. Then underneath the security questions click on the link that says 'Forgot your answers? Send reset security info email to [email]'. This will generate an automated e-mail that will allow you to reset your security questions.
If that doesn't work, or there is no rescue email link available, then you will need assistance from Apple Account Security. Follow this procedure:
click on 'Temporary Support PIN' that is in the bottom left side, and generate a 4-digit PIN for the Apple Account Security Advisor you will be contacting later.
Next, go to getsupport.apple.com. If you see a message that says 'There are no products registered to this Apple ID, simply click on 'See all products and services'.
Choose 'More Products & Services', then 'Apple ID'.
A new page will open. Choose 'Other Apple ID Topics', then 'Forgotten Apple ID Security Questions'.
Click the blue 'Continue' button.
Select the contact option that suits your needs best.

How can i get into my ipad when i forgot my password?

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.

How do I restore my old iPhone4 when I forgot my password and iCloud is still on?

Hello Everybody.
Recently I found my old iPhone 4 that i haven't used in quite a while. I locked the phone initially so that my sister would not find any of my old text messages and then left it in one of my drawers for a while. After I found it again the other day, I decided to reuse it since I am going to a concert on the 29th of this month and want to use it to take photos and videos. I plugged it in the charger and waited until it was 100%, and then plugged it into iTunes. I realised I forgot my password for the phone, which was fine as I wanted to erase all of my old content. When I clicked restore on iTunes it said that Find My iPhone was still on for my phone and that I had to go on iCloud to turn it off. Of course this was no problem until I found out I had a different account than I did 2 years ago, as I forgot my password and made a new account. Obviously you can tell I don't have a very good memory.
I would like to know how to restore my iPhone before the concert so I can use it. I have a feeling my phone will run out of battery and I want to be sure I can take as many photos and videos as I can. If anybody could help that would be great
Corrina.

ITunes will not manually sync music onto my iPhone 5. When I drag my music onto the iPhone, the icon "bounces" and then the sidebar closes, not syncing the music.

I've tried restarting my computer, iTunes, unplugging my iPhone and nothing will fix it.

Also, some of the music I want to add to my iPhone will sync but some won't.

How to erase all content and settings when I forgot my password

How do I erase all content and settings on my iPhone 3Gs when I dont remember my Apple ID password and I haven't installed Find my iPhone app on the phone? Thanks!

It should be the same AppleID and password you use to log in here.
I haven't installed Find my iPhone app on the phone?
Installing the app will simply allow you to locate a different iDevice.
You don’t need to use it to locate the iPhone in your hands. If it’s not in your hands, you cannot use the app on that device...

I changed my Apple ID on iTunes and on the iPhone 4. When I try to "Update All" the old Apple ID (I no longer have access to the email address) shows up. How do I update those apps?

Apps are DRM protected and tied to the account used to originally obtain them. They cannot be transferred to another iTunes account nor updated using another iTunes account. Only the account used to obtain them can be used to update them. You can contact iTunes support, explain the situation & ask that they add these apps to the download queue of your new account:

Correct. When you purchase devices, they would have stated the OS they needed to work, on the box. This can be overlooked, but it is very important to check when purchasing.
You current OS, is so old, that they technology build into the new devices, is not something your OS understands. It didn't exist when your OS was created, and therefore you need to upgrade the OS to work with the newer technology of these devices.
10.6 software is not downloadable. You must purchase a DVD disc. You can order it from the on-line apple store

How come I can't access itunes when I could yesterday?

How come I can't access itunes when i could yesterday? When I hooked up my iphone to sync it asked me to reset phone to factory settings! I don't think so! Then when I tried to download update it won't do it.

On my iPod touch I don't have a spotlight search icon or option available. Also under my settings and general there is no "restriction" options or settings. I reset the iPod several times and that doesn't work.
The thing is the music that is on my iPod is not all in my iTunes library so I can never sync automatically. Also if i restore to factory settings then it will erase what i have on my iPod and not in my library. I always manually add songs. When I plug in my iPod and i go under Summary...the only other tabs are music, tv shows, photos and info. There is no Apps tab. When i plug in my iPhone i do get the apps tab.
I got my iTouch awhile ago....is it possible that this is why i can't get apps?? I got the iTouch back in 2008.
Ughhh this is so frustrating. I just want to get this one app on my iPod Touch. Please help!!

You do NOT have duplicates. This is how Apple handles photos.
Just as a song is in your Itunes Library and that exact same song can be accessed from a playlist, all synced photos are in the Photo Library and those exact same photos can be accessed from the album.
