Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

HT1212 how do i restore my ipod touch its disabled

my ipod touch is disabled for 22000000 mins

If IOS-7 is NOT installed and you have NOT turned on "Find my iPod," do the following:
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.
Otherwise, go here.

HT1212 My Ipad has been permanently lock because incorrect password has been enter too many times. Normally, it will ask to wait for 60 minutes but this is not available, the only option, it says to connect to Itunes. I cannot connect to ITunes either.

What can I do to unlock the IPAD if I cannot access the device by using computer? When I connect to computer, it says I have to unlock the IPad to connect to itunes.
I try everything but I cannot figure out what to do. I turn off IPAD and it still stay in the connect to Itunes mode. It does not goes back to wait mode.
Any suggestion would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Bill

‘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.

Welcome to the Apple community.
You will need to restore your phone and when prompted use the backup that you made yesterday.
Before you do so, you may wish to change your wife's iCloud login details, otherwise you may find that you then overwrite her data. She should have her own iCloud account to avoid this.

You'll have to wipe it out and restore from backup to recover, that'll reset the code but you'll lose any data since your last sync.

How do I tell if my phone is 'locked' or 'unlocked' GSM?

How do I tell if my phone is 'locked' or 'unlocked' GSM? Thanks!!

All LTE phones (Android, iPhone, anuything) on VZW are GSM unlocked for the bands the phone supports. This is a restriction placed on Verizon due to the terms they sigend with the FCC for use of the 700 MHz spectrum for LTE.
An iPhone 5 will work fine on T-Mobile or AT&T's GSM networks with 3G. They are not compatible for LTE due to the hardware included in the phone.
If you want to tell, borrow a nano-SIM from someone with an AT&T or T-Mobile iPhone 5, place it in your phone, and watch as it works.

How do you restore a password on a locked folder made in disk utility?

how do you restore a password on a locked folder made in disk utility?

Hello there, HoseDwellers.
The following Knowledge Base article as a great step by step instructional on how to change the password for the account:
OS X: Changing or resetting an account password
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1274
Resetting a user's password in OS X Lion and Mountain Lion
Important: Passwords for administrator accounts should not be blank.
Log in with an administrator account. Tip: If you don't know the password of any administrator accounts, see "Resetting the original administrator account password" below.
From the Apple menu choose System Preferences.
From the View menu choose Users & Groups.
Click the lock button if it appears locked; enter the administrator password.
Select the name of the user whose password you want to change.
Click the Reset Password button or the Change Password button.
Enter a new password in both the New Password and Verify fields, and add a Password Hint if desired.
Click the Reset Password button or the Change Password button.This should get you taken care of.
Remember, also, that you can restart the computer (you will be prompted to enter your administrator password) and this should log him out so that when you log back in, you can then follow the above steps with success.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
