HT1316 forgotten security password

I have set a security password for my iphone and have completely forgotten what I set it too, how can I unlock my phone? any ideas please

If you have a computer that you normally sync with, plug your phone in then backup and restore thru iTunes. This should remove the passcode.

  • Forgotten security password for PDF scans

    Is there a way I can unlock my pdf scans? I set security to stop page extraction from a group of pdf scans done years ago and I have now forgotten the password to use to edit them.
    I now maintain a list of passwords but long ago did not. I'm guessing I saved it somewhere but haven't had success locating the password. Thought this might be a shot at being able to edit them.
    I set the files to function at Acrobat v6 and above, if that is any help.
    My thanks,
    MEL

    Not with any Adobe products, and other products are not discussed on these forums...

  • Forgotten Security Password

    This is sounding absurd, but I cannot for the live of me find where I wrote down the password for my Airport Extreme security. I just got an Iphone and would like to connect it to my Airport wifi. Any ideas?

    Welcome to the discussions!
    Let's try the simplest way first and see if that works. If not, it gets more complicated.
    Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
    Click Manual Setup
    At the very top of your computer screen, near the Apple icon, locate the Base Station menu and then click on Equivalent Network Password.
    Hopefully, your "password" will appear along with your long network "key"
    Is your "password" there?

  • Forgotten my apple security password? Cambodia

    Dear all,
    I tried to reset my security password which i have forgotten completely from Cambodia however there is no support base in Cambodia. I have tried everything yet the option for resting security password wasn't there for me to do so.
    Please help!

    The reset like will only show on your account on http://appleid.apple.com if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) on it ( http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6170)
    If you aren't getting the reset link then you don't have a rescue email address, and you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions - you will have to contact Support i to get the questions reset.
    As Cambodia isn't on this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    If your country isn't on that page then try this form and explain that you've forgotten your answers, don't have a rescue email address, and that your country isn't on the HY5600 page, and see what they reply with : https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
    When they've been reset you can then add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5620

    To restore from backup see:

    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 backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

  • My apple id attached to my itunes account has expired and i have forgotten the password that was attached to it! I have created a new apple id but cannot transfer it to my itunes which all my apple products connect up to on my mac?! HELP!

    My apple id attached to my itunes account has expired and i have forgotten the password that was attached to it! I have created a new apple id but cannot transfer it to my itunes which all my apple products connect up to on my mac with all my pictures etc on!?! HELP!

    My apple id attached to my itunes account has expired
    They don't expire. As far as anyone knows Apple IDs live on forever - if you forgot its password use https://iforgot.apple.com. Good luck with the answers to whatever security questions it asks.
    ... I have created a new apple id but cannot transfer it to my itunes which all my apple products connect up to on my mac with all my pictures etc on!?!
    Right! That's the reason you do not create a new Apple ID.
    As far as Apple is concerned a new Apple ID is a completely different user, with absolutely, positively no access to anything available to any other Apple ID.
    Concentrate your efforts on resetting the password to your old Apple ID. It has not expired, and is the only way to use all your existing iTunes purchases, App Store purchases, computer authorizations... etc. Forget about the new Apple ID you just created.
