HT1222 I went to update my I pad 3. As there was 1 Software update showing - it keeps asking for a 4 digit password? What's that all about? I have never had a password for OSX updates. H.E.L.P
Hi community Folks
Hope you are all well.
I just turned on my I Pad and the settings icon showed 1 update, when I tapped on there is a software update !
When I go to update it is asking me for a code ?
which I don't have or have a Scooby doo ( Clue) about
As I have updated my pad without any pass code before
Any ideas please shout me back
It is asking for the passcode you use to lock/unlock iPad

Help!
I updated to 07 and now my ipad is asking me for a password! I have never had a password ~ help ~ and my apple id is not workingYou don't HAVE to put that passcode in. If you look closely you'll see the option to skip it. That's what I did for my touch.

Messages has replaced all my text with a load of letter A's in boxes. What is that all about. When I type a new one it is fine until I hit enter then the same thing applies. Has anyone a fix for this?
Picture below, many thanks for your help.
JasonBack up all data before proceeding.
Launch the Font Book application and validate all fonts. You must select the fonts in order to validate them. See the built-in help and this support article for instructions. If Font Book finds any issues, resolve them.
Start up in safe mode to rebuild the font caches. Restart as usual and test.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t start in safe mode. In that case, ask for instructions.
If you still have problems, then from the Font Book menu bar, select
File ▹ Restore Standard Fonts...
You'll be prompted to confirm, and then to enter your administrator login password.
Also note that if you deactivate or remove any built-in fonts, for instance by using a third-party font manager, the system may become unstable. -
I am unable to update my incoming mail since 9/21/12 What's that all about?
I can't update my new mail since 9/21/12 what's that all about?
That's all about you and your mail provider. It has nothing to do with Apple, and certainly nothing to do with the people in this user-to-user forum. And based on the information you have provided thus far unless there happens to be a psychic monitoring the forum no one can help you.

I plugged my iPad in to charge last night. I plugged it into the wall and I have never had any problems. I have had this iPad for a little over a month. This morning, when I went to look something up, it wasn't responding. It won't turn on, I get nothing on the screen, and if I plug it in to charge, to the wall or my computer, nothing happens. Has anyone else had this issue? I can't think of what else to try or what to do next.
First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
If that doesn't help I suggest having a technician look at your iPad. Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support. -
I want to erase All contents and settings but it keeps asking me for a 4 digits Restrictions code...never set one up ???

iTunes has tried to update itself and runs into an error and tells me to manually install. When I d/l and run the iTunesSetup.exe file I always encounter the following error message...
"A network error occured while attempting to read from the file C;|Windows|Installer|iTunes.msi" and iTunes does not update to iTunes 10.4.1.
Anyone know what is creating this error message? Thanks for the help...(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time? -
Was my question submitted?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
I've seen it mentioned that the password should contain at least 8 alpha and numerical characters and that at least one should be a capital letter. Have you tried that. -
My ipad need to input password when i open it. but i have never set a possword. what happed?
my ipad needs me to enter password when i open it, but i have never set up password.
i don't know how to deal with?
what happened?
how to solve this problem?I can't explain what happened but if it is asking for a password, even if you did not set one, the only way to unlock it is to restore it using iTunes.
You want to use the same computer that you always sync with so that you can restore your app data and settings. You can restore with any other computer, but you will lose everything on the iPad.
Instructions can be found here.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
You will probably need to restore using Recovery Mode. You can read about it here.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4097
Recovery Mode Instructions
Disconnect the USB cable from the iPad, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
Turn off iPad: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for iPad to turn off.
If you cannot turn off iPad using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the iPad turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to iPad. When you reconnect the USB cable, iPad should power on.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the recovery mode alert that iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode.
Use iTunes to restore iPad. -
My rue la la app for ipad stopped working. I deleted the app and tried to reinstall it, it is no longer available in the app store and when I research it on safari and find it when i try to install it says that it is not available in the us store. What is that all about?
My app did the exact same thing. It is still unavailable on the App Store and when Rue La La's site directs you to download their app, the "not available in the U.S. message appears. This happened to me last night. The app wasn't working, I deleted it and was just going to reinstall but was unable to find the app. I figured it was some glitch but I have tried multiple times this afternoon to no avail.

1. Turn off iPad
2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)

Last week I downloaded the latest OS update for my iPhone 5S. Now, a popup window states the password is invalid for voicemail. I have never needed a password or I don't need one or want one. Have searched is setup to find a way to turnoff the required password. Phone has been like this since the update to the OS.

If you are getting a voicemail password prompt, that usually means you have a voicemail. In order to hear it you will need to enter the passcode, it only needs to be entered once.
To reset your passcode, call your service provider. -
I have an Apple ID and password, the latter is alpha numeric. Have not had any problem using it. Downloaded ISO 7 and it is requesting a four digit password. Nothing I enter works. Then it locks for awhile. I try again, no number I have ever used works.
