HT1349 what is a PUK code?

Somehow got myself into needing a PUK code to access my normal login. Now The phone is needing a PUK code - - what the...?
Help needed.
Thanks Kathy

That one came with your sim card. You'll need to go to your provider to retrieve it if you no longer have it.

    what is a PUK code?

    A personal unblocking code (PUC), also known as a PIN unlock key (PUK), is used in 3GPP mobile phones to reset a personal identification number (PIN) that has been lost or forgotten. Most mobile telephones offer the feature of PIN protection.

  • HT1316 what is a puk code and how do i get a sim code for my ipad 1

    what is a PUK coade and how do i get a sim code for my ipad !? i was factory restoring my ipad and received a box asking for the puk and sim code? please help i am totally locked out.

    If you don't know the PIN or PUK, you'll need to contact your cell carrier for assistance and perhaps a replacement SIM.
    For the short term, if you remove the SIM you may then be able to get into your iPad, though I'm not certain. It's worth a try, though.
    Regards.

  • How do i obtain a PUK code for my Ipad (and yes that is what my Ipad is asking for)

    I own 64bit Ipad.  One day I turned it on and it said "Enter a PUK code".  I don't have any idea what this means, I just know my Ipad has been inoperable since.
    There is no carrier, it's not a phone.  Just Wi-Fi.  I have wasted SO much time trying to get this resolved I am ready to throw this thing in the drink.  No help from Apple, there is no "carrier", so ***????!!!!!  Feels like a $900 rip off right now.  I am not a general Mac or Itunes user, bought this Ipad as an experiment for EHR in my medical office, where it could have been a very handy tool.  I don't want to loose all of the medical information already downloaded, and Itunes doesn't recognize it when I plug it in to my laptop.
    I have removed the Sims card, then the picture of a USB cable pointing to the Itunes icon appears.  Itunes and the Ipad don't seem to recognize each other from the same device that I've updated on before.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
      I'm really upset that Apple wants to charge me to tell me how to fix it, when it was as simple as me turning it off one day, and getting this  message the next, ya know???!!!!

    The only one that can issue a PUK code is a carrier, which you've already made clear you don't have.
    If itunes does not recognise your ipad that may be another issue. What version OS is on your computer and what steps did you follow to uninstall itunes and then reiinstall itunes on your computer?
    And, do you at least see the sidebar on the left hand side of itunes?

    Do you have another computer you can try?

  • Lock my iPad asking for PUk code I have no idea what is that

    Need help locked my iPad asking for PUK code to unlock and I have no idea

    I don't think you can, you could try to email apple about the problem or depending on what you mean by "info" if it is just apps you can re download them again once you restore it.

    It says I have to put a PUK code and I don't know what to put

    Hello Naly318,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    iOS: Understanding the SIM PIN
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1316
    Personal Unlocking Key (PUK)
    If you enter the PIN incorrectly three times, you may need to enter a Personal Unlocking Key (PUK) to enable your SIM card again. Refer to the SIM card documentation or contact your carrier.
    Note: Entering an incorrect PUK code too many times will result in the SIM becoming permanently locked. If this occurs, you will need to contact your carrier for a replacement SIM card.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

  • How do I use my PUK code on my Xperia Z3?

    I bought my Xperia Z3 from the network's store directly under pay as you go (it was cheaper than buying it unlocked from Amazon and Sony directly). However, I want to use a different network providers SIM.
    Luckily the network I bought the device from has provided me with a PUK code, free of charge. I don't however know how to use it.
    Can someone explain?

    The PUK code needs to be inserted if you block the SIM.That can occur if you insert the PIN incorrectly 3 times.
