HT1212 after the update my iphone4 isnow requesting a passcoaftde which i never had before. how do I open it now?
after the iphone update my phone is noe requiring a passcode which i never had before. How do i get into my phone now?
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.
You may have to force iPad into Recovery Mode

Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

‘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 cancelling 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.

After operating system upgrade, my iPhone demands a passcode be entered. I have never used a passcode. How can I restore my iPhone to how it was before?

It's asking you to create a passcode. You can turn it off later if you wish. -
I have a mini ipad and recently downloaded the latest os.I now can't access without a password which I didn't use before.My ipad has been disabled as I don't know what password to use.Is there any way I can enable my ipad with a new password without losing my info and data especially photos?
You used the data. Verizon can not see what it was sued for. However your phone can see whats apps used the data. go to settings-data usage- there will be a place that says data usage cycle. line the dates up with your cycle. then there will be a bar graph below that extend bother white bars one all the way to the left and one all the way to the right. after those are extended below that will be a list of apps, there should be one that used over 2 gb and that will show you what app used that data in her purse

Wi-Fi on my iphone4s is grayed out and I think this happened after the update 7.0.4. I tried all possible solutions through apple online support and then went to apple store as a last resort and they turned me down that there is no support in the 2nd year. Only option is to pay 160 pounds and get replacement. When I argued further, they said that if I had bought the iphone directly with them, they would replace me without any cost. This is even more frustrating.
THIS IS TOTALLY UNFAIR as its not my fault. If the release of faulty 7.0.4 software is timed in my 2nd year of contract and since I didnt buy the iphone directly from Apple, how is it fair to ask me to pay for replacement. Its not my fault after all.Because you are outside the one year hard ware warrenty, Apple covers for the first year on their dime, if you had a two year contract why not make sure you have a two year insurance on your phone?
Either way as I can see/assume you are from europe you can look at your consumer laws to see if you qualify for anything there, beyond that it isn't the software that broke the device, it's a hardware failure because thousands upon thousands are happy and content with iOS 7.0.4 -
Hi, when ever I'm using 3G, on my Iphone4 sim stops working and network is lost, this started after I updated my phone with 6.0.1(10A523)version. Please help how to solve this problem. Thanks.
Photos/videos in the Camera Roll are not synced. Photos/videos in the Camera Roll are not touched with the iTunes sync process. Photos/videos in the Camera Roll can be imported by your computer which is not handled by iTunes. Most importing software includes an option to delete the photos/videos from the Camera Roll after the import process is complete. If is my understanding that some Windows import software supports importing photos from the Camera Roll, but not videos. Regardless, the import software should not delete the photos/videos from the Camera Roll unless you set the app to do so.
Photos/videos in the Camera Roll are included with your iPhone's backup. If you synced your iPhone with iTunes before the videos on the Camera Roll went missing and you haven't synced your iPhone with iTunes since they went missing, you can try restoring the iPhone with iTunes from the iPhone's backup. Don't sync the iPhone with iTunes again and decline the prompt to update the iPhone's backup after selecting Restore. -
Issues after the update from 2.5.7 to 2.5.16
A number of issues have cropped up due to / during / after the update of the forums from 2.5.7 to 2.5.16 at the beginning of this week. This is a list of those issues as I have compiled them. It is a work in progress and I will update it when more information becomes available.
1 Username and email problems for some users. (fixed 2009-12-03)
Some users have a suffix appended to their username and their email address replaced with a random string (as a consequence email notifications don't work anymore). This problem is being worked on. Time to fix is unknown. Users experiencing this problem are requested to report so in this thread: My user handle and e-mail have been changed without my knowledge Please include your old username, which Adobe ID's you have and whether you used the same email address for those Adobe IDs.
2 Some user preferences are lost when logging in. (fixed 2009-12-03)
When you log in to the forums (either manually or automatially based on a "Remember me" cookie), some of your preferences are overwritten by their default values. The most noiceable prference is the settng to display your screen name (real name) that will get reset to displaying a username. This problem is being worked on. Time to fix is unknown.
3 The Rich Text Editor (RTE) is inserting linebreaks.
When typing a post the RTE will randomly insert linebreaks.
Workaround: remove the linebreaks manually.
4 Raw (FreeMarker?) code is inserted in some posts (through the RTE?).
In some posts code appears that was not entered by the user. The code looks something like below (but there may be much more then just this one line):
function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
Workaround: edit the post and remove the code.
5 The logout button disappeared.
The logout button is no longer visible.
Workaround: How can I log out from the forums?
6 Search is down on one node. (fixed 2009-12-03)
Search is down on the SGAURWA41P cluster node. This does not show itself as an error, but instead as 0 search results.
Workaround: restart all browser windows and you may end up on another cluster node or use Google with a "site:forums.adobe.com" search modifier.
7 Users have 404 problems on first request.
This is not really a new problem, but it is something that was supposed to be fixed with the update. The problem is caused by the forums inserting a jsessionid parameter in the wrong place in the URL.
Workaround: reload the page where the incorrect link is located.
8 Image upload through camera button doesn't always work. (fixed 2009-11-30)
Some people have reported problems with uploading JPG and PNG images using the camera icon.
Workaround: attach the images instead.
Update 2009-11-28:
A probable cause for the error [The content type of this image is not allowed.] when uploading images through the camera button has been identified. Internet Explorer uploads images using a Content-Type header that differs from the IANA registered type for jpg and png images. As such, the recommended workaround for people wanting to upload images using the camera icon is to use a browser that is not Internet Explorer.Re issue 4, "Raw (FreeMarker?) code is inserted in some posts (through the RTE?)", the suggested workaround is:
Workaround: edit the post and remove the code.
With my IE 8, the workaround never works. See this test post for an example:

Burning a DVD after the update
Trying to burn a DVD after the update. Selecting DVD as the destination. But no matter whether I select "automatic" or "single layer" the software keeps requesting dual-layer media. I really don't want to do that. Any solutions other than Compressor?
Having to finish the project... I exported using Compressor and everything worked fine. But I still can't for the life of me figure out why FCP X in the DVD destination continues to demand dual media....

Why can I not disable the guest user in the 10.8.2 update? I have never enabled the guest user, but after the update, it was automatically enabled with a "managed" tag. It is not selectable even after entering my admin password to unlock the options. I was able to select the account under "parental controls", but again, could not delete it. Why Apple? Why?!!????
SOLVED Ok. I actually was able to disable it. I had to actually log in as the guest user to make it accessible in the preference window. Then I disabled it and logged out. Apologies if this was obvious for some people, but I have had some sort of issue with something every update since Snow Leopard.

Subject: Your Apple ID was used to sign in to iCloud and iMessage on an iPad mini
Dear Leslie J.,
Your Apple ID was used to sign in to iCloud and iMessage on an iPad mini named “Leslie Joye's iPad”.
If you have not recently set up an iPad with your Apple ID, then you should change your Apple ID password. Learn more.
Apple Support
<Email Edited By Host>1. It is never a good idea to include personal info like your email address or Apple ID in a post on an open forum.
2. The email you received DOES NOT say your Apple ID cannot be used to unlock this iPad. The email informs you that your Apple ID was used to unlock an iPad. Fortunately the iPad is yours. The message confirms that. If your Apple ID was used to unlock an iPad that was not yours your would then know to change your password. Since the iPad is yours you do not need to change your password.

So I updated my iPhone 5s to version 7.0.6 yesterday, and now my iPhone music isn't working properly. It won't sync the playlists that I added after the update though when it's plugged in on iTunes it says that the music is synced. When I select a song in a playlist on the phone it shuffles through the playlists for like 3 seconds and picks a totally different song to play. I tried reinstalling iTunes, I tried restoring the iPhone, is it just a bug with the update? Nothing works. Any solutions are welcome.
DFU mode? How do I do that? So far the only thing I can do is hold down both buttons to power it on and nothing is on the screen and it wont reconize on my computer....

After the update of my 13 in mac book pro (early to mid 2011) , it freezes every 30 seconds with the spinning wheel and now it just freezes. Ive never had this problem until I recently updated. Also, I just checked now for available update ( which there was one), the update would process till the last step and it shows it cannot be expanded? Now my computer wont even restart (just have a grey screen with a cursor). Can someone please tell me what the heck is going on with my computer?
I also checked the memory and it showed available memory was over 1.5 GB. I dont have any programms installed and do not have backup yet ( dont really need it anyways)
Problems: first with spinning wheel every 30 seconds and now whole computer just freezes when I restart, it only shows grey screen after the starting sound or it takes about 8 to 10 minutes to restart.
This ALL happened right after the update with google chrome crashing. I know my apple care plan expired so I cant even go to genius bar. Do you guys know how much it would cost to get it fixed ? Or any recommendations I can do to fix this?Try a smc reset:

My phone was recently updated to 8.1. After the update, when text messages are sent when my phone is turned off, they no longer appear when I turn the phone on. Is there something in Settings that needs to be changed?
