You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.
You can restore from a backup if you have one from BEFORE you set the restrictions passcode.
Also, see iTunes- Restoring iOS software.

    A passcode cannot be recovered if forgotten.  You can reset via recovery mode if disabled by following the instructions in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212 and may need to do that procedure more than once.

  • Where do I find the four digit passcode for the ipad?

    I have been attempting to set up my ipad.  I am now getting a screen where I need to enter a four digit passcode.  Where do I find the passcode?  The network key on the internet box is ten digits.  The cable technician used this ten digit number when he installed my cable.  Does this have anything to do with passcode?

    You may have to do this several times.
    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.

  • IPod rejected my four-digit passcode. Is this a glitch?

    My 2nd Generation iPod Touch rejected my four digit passcode, under Restrictions, I had set up for my kids, so they don't download ceratin stuff. . Is this a glitch? Four digit passcode was never changed. I tried to reboot, and four-digit passcode still doesn't work.

    If you do not know the Restrictions passcode, your only option is to restore the iPod to factory defaults via iTunes as restoring from backup would only restore the Restrictions passcode.

  • How do I change the 4 digit passcode to a 5 digit passcode on an iPad?

    How do I change the 4 digit passcode to a 5 digit passcode for an iPad?

    Yes, once you have entered the ID into the passcode, and turned off the simple passcode option, you are then free to set the new password any way you wish, and 5 numeric digits is possible, but so is 15 alphanumeric if that is your desire.

    No one here would be able to tell you what your passcode is. If it's for airplay then you can reset it if you've forgotten it.

  • IPod Touch - Restrictions Four Digit Passcode - Failed Passcode Attempts?

    I've have forgotten the restrictions four-digit passcode I set up on my iPod Touch. I've have so far entered the wrong passcode 11 times. I now have to wait one hour between each attempt.
    Is there a limit to the number of attempts permitted?

    There is a setting you can put on the Touch to erase the data after 10 failed passcode attempts. If you're sure you tried 11 times and your Touch did not erase, you must not have enabled that option.

  • HT5622 Where do I change my 4 digit passcode?

    How do I go about changing the 4 digit "passcode"?

    You need to know the passcode to be able to change it.
    It would be pointless to have a passcode you could change without having to provide it.
    If you don't know the passcode, how do you unlock your iPad when you turn it on?
    Anyway James is correct.  You will need to restore the iPad as new to remove the passcode.  It will require your Apple Id and Password though to restore.

    First, try usual codes, like 1234, your birth date, your birth year, etc. If it's  really not working, you'll have to restore your iPad from iTunes.
