How to set restriction passcode if I failed to enter the correct code 3 times and got locked out?

I am locked out.  Can anyone help? 

To remove the Restrictions passcode you will need to either...
Restore the Device as New...

OR...
from a Backup created Before the Restrictions Code was set....
Restore from Backup

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.

    How do you download multiple apps without having to enter the password each time

    You don't, this is a security measure which can't be changed, however, if you purchase another App within 15 minutes your password should not be required.

  • HT2477 I just purchased the IMac and was in the process of setting it up and got locked out.  A password is being requested and I did not establish one.  Is there a default password for the imac?

    I just purchased the iMac and was in the process of setting it up and it locked up, requiring me to put in a password.  I never established a password, does the iMac have a default password?

    If you have been using the mac.com Apple ID to make iTunes purchases recently, then there should be no issues continuing to use it with the new iPhone. I would abandon the new ID as you will never get Apple to merge the two IDs. I have had a mac.com ID for years and continue to use it with my iPhone 4S.
    Tell us the issues that you encounter trying to set up the iPhone with the mac.com account.

    1. See my User Tip for some help: Some Solutions for Resetting Forgotten Security Questions: Apple Support Communities.
    2. Here are two different but direct methods:
        a. Send Apple an email request at: Apple - Support - iTunes Store - Contact Us.
        b. Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support
            and service.

  • How to reseet restriction passcode? I don't think I have set it.

    It looks like iphone passcode and restriction passcode are different. I have not set the restriction passcode before. How do I reset it w/o re-intall the software?

    It depends.  If you haven't ever set it, when you go into restrictions it will prompt you for a password.  At the top of the screen, it will say "Set a Restrictions Passcode".  You can then enter a 4-digit number (make sure what you are entering and writing it down).  It will then prompt you to enter it again.  Once you've done that, you can enable and disable restrictions.
    Later on, if you disable restrictions, you will be back at square one and can re-create a new passcode. 
    However, if you've set it, or for some strange reason iOS 5 or someone else set it, you're stuck.  Look for this thread for ideas and frustrations.  The solutions there do not work for iOS 5.   https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2667637?start=0&tstart=0

    One of the kids has accidentally input a "Restricitons" passcode on this iPod.
    I have done a factory reset and back up from iTunes but this hasn't worked at removing the RESTRICTIONS.
    I'm now at hourly guesses to try and randomly work out the code but this will take a lifetime!
    Suggestions please - and they need to be for a non-techy.

  • I got locked out from my iPad mini during setup, keep ask me for passcode but I didn't set one up.  Reboot unsuccessful, iTune won't let me connect because I didn't enter my passcode. How to fix this?

    I got locked out from my iPad mini during my initial setup.  Keep ask me for passcode but I haven't setup one.  Reboot and restart didn't solve the problem, tried connect to iTunes but it won't let me because it requires the passcode.  Tried my Exchanged password, Apple ID password and my iPhone passcode but none work.  Any idea to resolve this?

    Try and force your iPad into Recovery Mode
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. 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 turn off.
    3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
    Note: Data will be lost.

  • How do I reset my Ipod if the passcode that was put on it was entered wrong too many times and it disables the ipod?

    My son put a passcode on his IPOD TOUCH and couldnt remember it and entered it too many times. Now it has disabled the Ipod and says please connect to ITunes and ITunes will not connect to it because it has been disabled, I have already spoke to an Apple representative and did exactly what they told me to do to help reset the Ipod but that didnt work. So I am trying to figure out how we can get back into his IPod even if we have to factory reset it because nothing is working, not their instructions or the internet instructions for reseting it.

  • I cannot figure out how to set my apple id to use: itunes (two of accounts), apps store and Itunes store. How do I make one password that will be recognixed by all these devices?

    I cannot figure out how to set my apple id to use: itunes (two of accounts), apps store and itunes store. How do I make one password that will be recognized by all these devices? My apple id is constantly not working.

    Hi Lrwill,
    If the apps that are on your son's iPad were purchased under his Dad's Apple ID, then signing your Apple ID onto the iPad will not help you with updating those apps.
    Also, if the iPad was sync'd with his Dad's iTunes library, then hooking it up to your computer/iTunes library, will require you to reset the iPad, and everything that was loaded under the other Library and Apple ID will be wiped out.
    Can you provide a little more info about what was set up under which Apple ID and what iTunes library the iPad was sync'd with?
    Cheers,
    GB
