HT1212 I do not know my four digit passcode for my iphone 5. I just upgraded to iOS7. How do I unlock my phone? My phone is disabled because of failed attempts.

My iphone 5 is disabled due to too many attempts to unlock four digit passcode. I upgraded to iOS7 last night and it asked for a passcode this morning. I do not ever remember assigning a passcode. How do I get this phone disabled and figure out what my passcode is?

You can't.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Also when I am trying to connect ipad to my windows PC, it shows, your software is up to date and later starts restoring while updating again. Then automatically it stops to update halfway and I have to repeat the process again and again, still in vain.

Unfortunately, you cannot do very much with your phone unless you get assistance from the previous owner, they should either provide you with the password to unlock it or remove their account from the phone entirely remotely through iCloud.com > Find My Phone.

What is the Apple TV four-digit passcode?

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.

I do not know which email i used for the my old apple ID.

I do not know which email i used for the my old apple ID. All I know is that it goes C*****@gmail.com. Is there any way for me to figure out my username or email used for the apple id without having the username or email logged in?

You need to try each one you think it might be, or try using Apple’s iForgot service, or if you’re the device’s original owner, take it and its purchase receipt to a physical Apple Store.

Lost my i touch and do not know what the settings were for tracking

I lost my gifted i Touch and do not know what the settings were for tracking. Can I still get help to locate it?

If you set up the Find My iPod service prior to the iPod going missing, then there is a chance that can be tracked, though it depends on a number of factors (the iPod is turned on, connected to a WiFi network, and has not had the Find My iPod service disabled). Just log into iCloud.com and go to the Find My iPhone section. If you did not set up Find My iPod, then there is no way to track it.
Contact the police, give them any location information you get from Find My iPhone if you set it up and it returns a location, and notify your cell service provider. You should also immediately change any passwords for any online accounts you may have used from your iPod (the iTunes Store, for instance).
Regards.
