    Hey ade17768,
    Thanks for the question. The following resource outlines what to do if your device is disabled:
    iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
    If you have previously synced your device with iTunes, you may be able to reset the passcode by restoring the device:
    1. Connect the device to the computer with which you normally sync and open iTunes.
    Note: If iTunes asks you to enter the passcode, try another computer that you have synced with. Otherwise, go to "If you have never synced your device with iTunes, or you do not have access to a computer" section below.
    2. If the device is still disabled, or if iTunes does not automatically sync your device, sync the device with iTunes.
    3. When the backup and sync is complete, restore your device.
    4. When iOS Setup Assistant asks to set up your device, choose "Restore from iTunes backup".
    5. Select your device in iTunes and choose the most recent backup of your device.
    Thanks,

    Hey carla1958,
    Thanks for the question. The following article provides some solutions if you are having issues with passcode lock:
    iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
    If you have never synced your device with iTunes, or you do not have access to a computer
    If you see one of following alerts, you need to erase the device:
    "iTunes could not connect to the [device] because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the [device] before it can be used with iTunes."
    "You haven't chosen to have [device] trust this computer"
    If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
    Alternatively, place the device in recovery mode and restore it to erase the device:
    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 shut down.
    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.
    5. iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then restore the device.
    Thanks,

    Pawn shop! They only looked after it for a stranger then the ticket ran out. Will apple accept that sell-on as a bill of sale? I'll give you 50:50 chance on that.  Did you see Apple recently refused to unlock an ipad left to a guy by his mother who died of cancer. Apple wanted a court order! (Til it got on the national TV news).
    Someone will have to produce the original owner's bill of sale I reckon.

    You just input the 4-digit PIN that you were given when you locked your machine over iCloud.
    Pretty simple - unless you don't recall the PIN.

    The only way to remove a passcode is to restore the device.

  • When I set up email for the first time, I had to enter a 4 digit pin. Since then, every time I switch my phone on, I have to enter this pin.   How do I remove or bypass the pin so that I can switch on the Iphone without having to first enter a pin?

    Go to Settings>General>Passcode Lock>tap Turn Passcode Lock Off, enter your "pin".
    Edit:  Are you saying you are getting a prompt for your email pin, or are you talking about the passcode lock that appears when you turn the phone on?

  • Enter Passcode is now a text box instead of a 4 digit PIN code...

    hi,
    recently, I somehow got into a state where my phone (first generation iphone running 3.0) got into a state where the passcode is a text edit box instead of a four digit PIN code. i tried entering my PIN, didn't work, tried entering every password I use -- still doesn't work. what is going on here? i would like to be able to use my phone again someday...
    anyone know what's going on?
    thanks.

    Well the only route I can think of if it only happened due to error and not that you are using a phone connected to a company Exchange server is to restore it. Though believe it won't let you by normal means, you have to put it in recovery mode and then restore it as new.

  • WAP4410N access point 4 or 8 digit PIN required by WIN 8.1 network not of router label

    I am unable to get my WAP4410N wireless access point connected to my switch with an RJ45 connection to join my network because the 4 or 8 numeric digit PIN required by Win 7 and Win 8.1 is not identifiable on the router label. The network sees the WAP4410N but will not accept any6 of the numbers I put in. I have tried various numbers from the Mac address, serial number and model number, but "network setup" will not accept any of them.

    Hi Peter, this is a Windows feature (a confusing one at that). On the same Window where the message displays asking for the PIN should say something like "Connect to the network without setting it up". This should take care of that for you.

  • Payment details requesting six digit pin and 3d, w...

    Help I've been sent a request for payment details and they want a six digit pin and 3d. How do I get these?

    This sounds like a scam looking for your credit card details. DO NOT give them until you have verified who this came from by contacting who ever contacted you by other means than how they have given you. i.e. If its BT look up their contact details on the BT website.

  • IOS7 ipad- 4 digit pin to access ipad

  • I havent used my ipod for sometime and forgotten the 4 digit passcode what can i do

    i havent used my ipod for sometime and forgotten the 4 digit passcode what can i do

    If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone and iPod touch software.
    If the issue continues after updating and restoring your device, refer to this document.

  • Can't add wireless client in Airport Extreme, what is and where is 8-digit pin?

    Recently we bought a new MacBook Pro and at home I have a wireless network for my computer. I wanted to add the MBP to the network, but without using the network password, so I was looking around on here to see how to do it and I looked at the manual, but the manual doesn't tell me where or what the 8-digit pin is.
    My question:
    How do I add a client using an 8-digit pin, more specifically, where can I find this number?
    I've looked at a few discussions in here regarding the same issue, but found no result. Sorry if this really has been solved before and I was not able to find it.
    Details:
    Computers:
    iMac (bought in November 2007)
    MacBook Pro (Sept 2011)
    OSX:
    Lion 10.7.1 (on both machines)
    Airport Base Station:
    Airport Extreme 802.11n (2nd Generation)
    Version 7.5.2
    Airport Utility:
    Version 5.5.3 (553.20) (on airport admin machine, iMac)
    Network:
    -Closed
    -Not extended
         Wireless Security:
              WPA2 Personal
    I am unsure if this piece of information is of any use or importance, but I have an older machine (PowerMac G4) connected to the Aiport Extreme via Ethernet, aswell.
    Thanks

    Yes, I think so? Maybe I should have specified my goal with the network.
    Since my brother got a new laptop, I needed to add him to the network somehow. I didn't want him to know/use my password, so I was looking into creating a separate network altogether, but as I learned I cannot do that with the Airport Extreme I have. Then I was looking into other ways that would allow me to let him use the network but without having to type in the password, and I found that "Add a Wireless Client" thing. According to that, all I needed to do was put in an 8-digit pin that was "provided" by the client. I thought that I could just make up some 8-digit pin and that ultimately would be his "password" for the network, but even typing in abritrary 8 digits wouldn't allow me to click on the "continue" button or whatever button that is, the button would remain inactive.
    I temporarily changed the password to the network to have him added, for now (connecting normally, click network name and type in password), but if I can figure out how to get him on something separate or just him not having to type in the password, that would be better so I can revert or change my password to something else more meaningful for me.
    I hope this makes more sense.
