HT1212 How to reset your iPad without having it synced to a computer and not knowing your password?

How To reset iPad without having it synced to a computer and not knowing the password????  I changed my password and have forgotten it is there any way I can access and get on it??? Thanks

You must use a computer. There is no way around it for you.
You have to restore the device within iTunes. You can restore with any other computer, but you will lose everything on the iPad. You will have to download all of your purchased content again after you unlock the device.
You will have to use recovery mode

  • When I try to quit firefox, it hangs. I cannot force quit and I cannot restart. I tried the online help which directed me to uninstall, but I couldn't find library /application support. How can I fix this without having to turn off the computer?.

    This is not possible. If the old computer is unusable the only option is "deauthorize all".

    How can you reset your password on IPod Touch?

    If you forgot your screen-lock passcode
    Connect the iOS device to your computer and restore via iTunes. Place the iPod in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the iPod backup that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload iTuns purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • How do I get 3 ipods on one computer have their own library without having to sync with another one and erasing its content?

    So I have a computer that I use for my iPod and my list is the main library that stays on the computer along with any other music my mom buys from her account. Anytime that I want to add music to any of theres, a window pops up saying that I need to sync to the library and erase the existing one they have. I dont want to do that I just want to be able to add any music they want for it without it saying that. My moms can add any music under her account to hers it still goes on to mine but at least it goes to hers. When my dads is attached it asks that question like I said before. Any one know how to make them all seperate?

  • "You must reset your password. Check inbox for email we just sent you." Not at old or new.

    I've been trying all day to change my email address associated with my Adobe account, using Firefox, my default browser. I am able to access my acct (old e-address), make changes in account, but then the screen displays:
    Required Password Reset: To protect the security of your account, you must reset your password. Please check your inbox for an email we just sent you with instructions for how to reset your password and log into your account.
    I have checked both email accts throughout the day, including spam folders. Cleared browser history etc. Tried using Internet Explorer. And every other action they recommend.
    How can I get through the Password Reset Wall?
    Thanks,
    Sandra

    Thanks, Dave. I think your link helped to solve my problem. Now that I have a new password, I'd like to ask this: Is making changes to your account so difficult for others? I ask because changing my password wasn't even the reason I was accessing my Adobe account.
    What I really want to do is to switch primary (1) and alternate (2) email addresses. I have a third (3) email address, which I can use for this process. For example, my idea is to replace (2) with (3), then (1) with (2), then (3) with (1). [I had already tried switching them; a lost cause.]
    I replaced (2) with (3). BUT! "An email has been sent to your inbox. Please check your email to complete verification."
    But I check all three email addresses and spam folders in each, several (m@any) times in a day, and that email never arrives. Even when I try making a different change.
    And all this so that I can prepare to purchase Adobe XI and have all communication between Adobe and me at that (currently) #2 address, which is the one I use for almost everything, and to keep all my receipts, software and hardware correspondence, and oh everything.
    Thanks for reading so far; if you (or anyone) have another way to accomplish this, please let me know.

  • HT4623 I have never had a passcode to lock  my iPad. Now that I have updated it with IOS7 it is asking for one and is locked. How do I unlock this without having to reset the whole thing through iTunes????

    I have never had a passcode to lock  my iPad. Now that I have updated it with IOS7 it is asking for one and is locked. How do I unlock this without having to reset the whole thing through iTunes????

    Unfortunately, if the iPad is insisting that you use a passcode, there is no way around it other than to restore the device using iTunes on a computer, or by erasing it in iCloud.com via Find My iPhone.
    You could try resetting the iPad and cross your fingers and hope this is just a blip on the radar....hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen.
