HT1212 I forgot my iPod password and I don't want to lose everything. I don't know what to do. It's synced to my computer but I don't know what to do.
I forgot my iPod passcode and it's snyced to my computer but it is saying I have to put the passcode in before I do anything. I don't know what to do.
You are out of luck. You have to restore and thus erase the iPod.
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.

how can I update my application Docs To Go with my new ID and new password? I forgot my old password and don't have my old e-mail adress. When I answer the question about my age it says that it is not the right date!!!!
Hi Guys,
I've sorted it
All I needed to do was add my old e-mail address - not as the primary but as an alias. This allowed me to delete the account on my iPhone 4S and re-sign in with the correct e-mail address.
Happy now -

I forgot my admin password and i don't have the cd any more what should i do?
like i already said in the question!
What 'softwater' said implies if you have Mountain Lion or Lion (10.8 or 10.7)
'softwater' is absolutely correct but if you have Snow Leopard (10.6), you can follow these steps to reset the password :
If you have lost a password to an OS X user account on your Apple Macintosh, this will help you reset it. This guide works for all apple computers including but not limited to MacBook, MacBook Pro, iMac, Mac Mini, Mac Pro, and MacBook Air.
Start by having your computer shut off.Power it on, and hold Command (Apple Button) + S at the same time.
Soon you’ll see the computer booting up with lots of lines of code scrolling by. When it comes to a rest, type the following./sbin/fsck -y/sbin/mount -uaw
Now we’ll get a list of the users on the computer based on their home directory. Type:
cd /Users/
ls
When you see the folder name (99% of the time this will usually match the user on the system, unless you’ve renamed the account afterwords) of the user you want to reset, type the passwd command. Assuming that my account name was john, I’d type the following:
passwd john
Substitute john for the username you wish to reset.You’ll now be prompted to enter a new password for john twice. Once to enter it, the second time to confirm.
After this is done, type:
reboot
You can now login to that user account with the new password. -
So basically i set a passcode and forgot it.. I want to restore my iphone. It's an iphone five and currently the software is all up to date. However whenever I try to restore it, I get this message that it's contacting the apple software server and then it begins downloading i.os which takes up to 5 hours. Why is it doing this?
The only way to deal with a forgotten passcode is to restore the phone.

My cousin wants to open her phone 5s but she cannot remember her password and she doesn't want to lose everything on it. She didn't sync it to any computers or have an icloud account. What should I do?
If she cannot remember the passcode, then she has to restore the device. If she did not backup the phone before this, she will lose all of her content. The only chance would have been if she had synced to a computer, but you say she did not.
