How do i restore the restricted passcode in iphone 5

Hi, SAVREET.
Thank you for the question.  If you lose or forget a restriction passcode, you will need to perform a factory restore to remove it.  Below, I have included the article that walks you through the restore process. 
iOS: Understanding Restrictions (Parental Controls)

iTunes: Restoring iOS software

Make sure to import all media, pictures and personal data to your computer prior to a restore.

  • How do I reset the RESTRICTIONS Passcode on iPhone 4s

    My teenager got to this before I did!
    How do I reset the Restrictions Passcode on his iPhone?
    Will this even work to restrict web content?
    I could swear that I remember being able to do this via iTunes when the phone was plugged in, but that functionality doesnt seem to be there.
    I see that I can restrict adult material (songs, R movies and etc) on all phones on the account via iTunes, but I dont see how to customize every individual phone on the account with different restrictions...
    Help...
    thank you

    Is it not possible to have a reminder sent to the account holder (ie:me) to reset, like when a passord for anything thing else is forgotton?    Just dread wiping the whole thing and re-setting up...... 
    Also, do you know if it controls web access?  I seem to remember and itunes content and volume control on the last parental control I used on an iphone, but that was atleast a year ago on a 3GS.
    Thx again

  • How do you elimanate the restriction Passcode on a IPhone 4 as I forgot the password?

    How do you eliminate the "Restriction Passcode" on a IPhone 4 as I forgot the password?
    I have done a backup and I have done a Restore and I still have the Restriction Passcode On.
    My main objective is to wipe out this phone to manufactures specifications.

    I had the same problem with my iPhone 5C. After trying several YouTube solutions involving CopyBot, which did not work, I finally figured out how to get rid of the restrictions passcode.
    1. Back up your phone to icloud. You will want to be sure you have synced your phone to your laptop as well to access your contacts and photos again.
    2. Make sure you have "Find my Phone" activated on your phone.
    3. On a laptop or other device, go to www.icloud.com/#find.
    4. Login and after the site finds your phone's location, click on the "All Devices" arrow and select your phone.
    5. Select Erase iphone. You will see it erasing on your phone. Don't panic!
    6. When your phone restarts, it will take you through the setup process. YOU WANT TO SET IT UP AS A NEW PHONE! If you restore a backup you will still have the passcode in play.
    7. During the set up, your phone should automatically restore your contacts; however, you may need to upload your photos and music manually.
    8. The restrictions passcode will no longer be on your phone! You will need to download your purchased apps again. This is a bummer, but at least you got past the restrictions passcode.
    I know this worked for the 5c, I can only assume it will work for all versions of the iphone, but I am not an expert.

  • HT1414 how can I remove the restriction passcode without having to reset device

    how can I remove the restriction passcode without having to reset device

    Put in the restrictions passcode, and then Disable Restrictions.
    Otherwise, you can't.  That's the ENTIRE purpose of a passcode lock.

  • How will i retrieve forgotten Restriction passcode for iphone 4

    Help! Been trying to recall my restriction passcode in iphone 4& ipad 2 (ios5) and couldnt retrieve it. Had 15 attempst ans still failed it. Any way i can restore in? Pls. Thanks.

    You'll have to restore the iPhone to its factory default settings. Connect it to your computer, open iTunes, select your iPhone from Devices list, click Restore. Everything on your iPhone will be erased. Anything in iTunes can be synced back over once the restore is done.

  • TA38641 how do i know the restriction passcode?

    I want to enable restriciotn in settings, but it is asking for a passcode which i don't know

    If the restrictions was off and you want to enable it. You can put any number you like. (Just don't forget the numbers you are using).
    But you have restrictions on and you want to disable it and you forgot the passcode then you have to restore either from backup using iTunes or as new.

  • Is there a difference between the passcode and the restrictions passcode, in iphone 6?

    After my 8.3 update, the pass code for unlocking my phone is not the same as the "restrictions pass code". I tried to restore my phone and created a new unlock pass code and I still cannot get past the Restrictions Pass code. ugg

    There is something going on here. I'm 100% sure that my restriction code was the same as my unlock too, and after updating to 8.3, I can't get in restrictions.
    Before updating, I had change my passcode for unlocking to the same as the restriction. The iphone haven't said a thing about that but I sure remember that I couldn't put the same passcode when I created the restricion one. Maybe you couldn't put the same unlock code in the restriction code but when you already created the restriction one, and tries to change the unlock code to the same as the restriction, it worked and bugged the restriction when I updated.

  • How do I restore the contacts on my Iphone?

    I cleaned up my contacts on my MacBook Pro (deleted duplicates, deleted old numbers, etc) and then synced to my Iphone.  Now my Iphone contact has no contacts.  How Do i sync the newly edited address book on my MacBook to my Iphone?

    Do you have sync contacts with the Address Book on your Mac selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes?
    If not, this needs to be selected.
    If you want to replace contacts on your iPhone with what is available in the Address Book on your Mac, select Contacts for replace info on this iPhone under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences followed by a sync.

  • HT1212 How can I zero the password on my iphone from me itunes account? The phone has a smashed screen and I want to back it up before I replace it but none of the sliders are working due to the smashed screen?

    My iphone has a smashed screen and my laptop which it was connected to has died under warrantee and been replaced. I am going to replace my iphone but want to back it up first. Unfortunately the screen wont work and there is a password on it meaning I cant access it from my itunes account on the new laptop. How can I disable the password from itunes and back up the phone. It wont turn off or activate any sliders.

    You can't disable the password.  If you could, what would be the point of having one?

  • How can I restore the contacts on my iPhone 4s (from iTunes) without 'syncing' my phone?

    I just got a new iPhone 4s about a month ago - backed everything up to iTunes before transferring onto my new phone, which worked great. However, my mail was not working correctly (gmail), and after trying to set it up multiple times, found out about the whole issue of gmail not supporting 'push' with the iphone anymore... Got that issue figured out, but part of trying to set up my gmail account found me syncing my contacts with my gmail contacts.
    I have not kept gmail contacts up to date for a few years, and when my phone synced with google contacts, it basically wiped out all of my current contacts and replaced with outdated contacts from google. I know that my contacts should all be saved to iTunes, but I'm afraid to sync and have the same thing happen again. I don't want to restore my phone from iTunes if I don't have to, because I don't want to lose other things outside of my contacts that I've updated since the last time I backed up my phone.
    Is there a way to restore just my contacts? I've got a lot of contact info/numbers over the years that would be very difficult to replace, and I don't fully understand the 'sync' process... Thanks for any help!

    Syncing contacts is bi-directional. If you elect to sync contacts...again, selected on the Info pane in iTunes...whatever contacts you have in whatever supported application on your computer will be merged with what you have on your phone. If whatever application, on your computer, is empty, then all contacts on your phone will be erased. Never sync to an empty application.
    Contacts are included in the iPhone backup, but the first thing done when you perform a sync is an iPhone backup. This means that whatever contacts are currently in your iPhone backup will be overwritten with whatever is currently on your phone.
    So, if all you want are whatever contacts are currently in your iPhone backup, you need to re-read my initial post.

  • How do I restore the contacts in my IPhone?  They dissappeared after I did the update.

    After I did the update, my contacts comletely dissappeared and my email locked up. Any help would be appreciated. I contacted Apple, but they were not of much help. The Icloud was not of help either.

    Do you have sync contacts with the Address Book on your Mac selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes?
    If not, this needs to be selected.
    If you want to replace contacts on your iPhone with what is available in the Address Book on your Mac, select Contacts for replace info on this iPhone under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences followed by a sync.

  • How do i restore the information in my iphone back to how it was before I changed it?

    I accidentally didn't know what I was doing and ended up changing all my settings. It deleted all my contacts now I searching a way to get all my previous data back, any ideas? Please I am in desperate need of help. I was trying to put music in my phone and ended up changing my phone completely. If there is anyway of getting all my contacts and pictures back please tell me.

    On the track pad control while moving two fingers down to zoom out to the original size and control plus two fingers moved up to zoom on.
    Alternatively if you have a magic mouse use control and drag one finger up and down on the mouse to control zooming.  If mouse wheel use control and move the wheel.

  • How can you restore the pictures from iphoto/iphone?

  • How can i retrieve my restrictions passcodes on my 3 apple devices without have to restore them to the factory settings?

    I have 3 apple devices  an IPad Air/ iPhone5 and iphone4s they all currently running the IOS 8.3 and my question is:
    How can I retrieve the restrictions passcodes in all of them without have to restore them all back to the factory settings ?
    I have all the backups in my Icloud , but if I do that they all will come back to the same settings I have now which includes the same passcodes I don't remember. I had all my passwords and passcodes saved before, but I cant find them.
    looking forward to hear from one of you out there...
    Thank you!

    There's no way around restoring the device as new if you cannot remember your restrictions password.  If there were, it would make having a restriction password useless.
