HT1349 Hi. How do you reset your i pod touch password after you forgot it

Hi. I have forgotten my password for my i pod touch and was wondering how to unlock it.

Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: Data will be lost.

    how do i reset my additional iCloud email password which i forgot because of your new PW requirements

    The password for your iCloud email is the same as the password where you sing into System Preferences>iCloud or http://icloud.com - can you sign in in the latter? If so and your email doesn't work you should sign out in System Preferences>iCloud and sign back in again, and check Mail and any other data tyupes you want to sync. You data will disappear from your Mac when you do this but re-appear when you sign back in again.
    If you can't sign in at http://icloud.com you should go to http://appleid.apple.com and click 'Reset password' - sign in with your iCloud login and follow the instructions.

  • HT5312 how do u reset your security answers and questions, if you forgot them

    I need help witht reseting my security answers and questions and  i forgot them.

    The page that you posted from has instructions for how to reset them i.e. if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then steps 1 to 5 half-way down that page should give you a reset link.
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use

    It dpends upon which reset you do. From the manual.

    You can reset the word dictionary, network settings, home screen layout, and location warnings.
    You can also erase all of your content and settings.
    Erase all content and settings:  Go to Settings > General > Reset, then tap Erase All Content and
    Settings.

    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts
    and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    Reset network settings Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset Network Settings.
    When you reset network settings, your list of previously used networks and
    VPN settings not installed by a configuration profile are removed. Wi-Fi is
    turned off and then back on, disconnecting you from any network you’re
    on. The Wi-Fi and “Ask to Join Networks” settings are left turned on.

    General > Profile, then select the profile and tap Remove. This also removes
    other settings and accounts provided by the profile.
    Reset the keyboard dictionary Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset Keyboard Dictionary.
    You add words to the keyboard dictionary by rejecting words iPod touch
    suggests as you type. Tap a word to reject the correction and add the word
    to the keyboard dictionary. Resetting the keyboard dictionary erases all
    words you’ve added.
    Reset the Home screen layout Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset Home Screen Layout.
    Reset location warnings Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset Location Warnings.
    Location warnings are requests made by apps to use Location Services.
    iPod touch presents a location warning for an app the first time the app
    makes a request to use Location Services. If you tap Cancel in response, the
    request isn’t presented again. To reset location warnings so that you get a
    request for each app, tap Reset Location Warnings.
    I recommend that your download the manual

  • How do I reset my Apple ID and password after I reseted my iPhone

    My child lock my iPhone 4S and I had to reset my whole phone by connecting to iTunes on my PC and that was successful now as I was setting everything up again it was telling me to enter the Apple ID and password but it's not working so I was wondering how do I reset both of them

    Did you buy this phone new? Or Used? Or did someone else have this phone previously?
    Sounds like you encountered the activation lock. If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for a previous Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. No must enter the previous Apple ID and password in order to use the device. If you cannot do this chances are You will never be able to activate the device and no one can help you do it.
