HT201210 Can somebody please help me, PLEASE!?! I have sentimental pics on my ipad but I have locked myself out, and don't know the passcode to unlock it.
The sentimental pics on here can't be replaced cuz they are of my son and his best friend Scooter, his dog. We moved and couldn't keep him so I had to take him to the Humane Society where he was adopted. I have tried to get the info of the new family that has him, but of course for privacy issues, they won't give it to me. So now that you know how desperate I am, please is there ANY way that I can restore the ipad without knowing the code? My son is heartbroken already at loosing him, but if I can't restore the ipad, he will loose all the pics that he has of him. I can verify any and all info of the purchase or anything that would need verified.
I did try to get help by going into the local Apple store. However, I was told that the only way to get it working again, now that I am locked out it, is to get on itunes and do a complete factory reset. This of course would fix the locked out issue but I would loose all the pics.

how do i get back in my ipad? After i updated to ios7, its asking for a passcode.
I don't get this. You were asked if you wanted a passcode. Apple always makes you enter it twice to make sure you got the same code. How can you forget 4 numbers you just entered?
The fix is to restore as in this link:

I got the 1st iPad but it needs iOS on it I don't know how to go about getting it can someone help me
If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.0.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.
iOS 5: Updating your device to iOS 5 or Later
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update.

I have a new MacBook Air and don't know how to get info from my USB stick and get info from my SD card. Can anyone help, please?
Plug the stick and/or card into the appropriate slots on the side of your Air. Do you see icons for the devices appear on the desktop? Click into them to see what files are there.

Help, I have locked myself out of my macbook air and there seems to be no way back on.
I have literally just got my first mac computer today (a macbook air) having previously been a PC user. Needless to say, I am not familiar with how to use them at all and am pulling my hair out here trying to work out why I have been locked out after just 5 minutes of using it.
I guess there must have been a setting on it to automatically log me out after a certain amount of time as I left my computer for a while before returning and came back to a login screen. It is now prompting me for a password to get back into my mac - even though I didn't even set one! When I click the ? button, it says i should go to appleid.apple.com to reset it from another device, but I have tried this and all it allows me to do is reset my Appleid - not my computer password. (By the way, have also tried typing in appleid password with no luck.)
Has anyone got any tips? I have tried running multiple internet searches across the forums and have found nothing even remotely close to helping me. It seems so ridiculous for something so simple - especially as i never even set a password!!!
Any help much appreciated - I am on the verge of throwing this machine across the room and I've only just got it.Did you purchase your MacBook Air new? Do you still have its box? Locate its serial number and telephone Apple at the number shown at the bottom of this page (1-800-MY-APPLE if you're in the U.S.). They can help you.

My ipad is disabled.. kids changed pin and don't know what it is.. how can I found out my pin???
HIII.. NEED HELP TO UNLOCK MY IPAD.. KIDS PLAYED WITH IT .. AND CHANGED THE PIN.. THEY DONT KNOW WHAT IT IS NOW..
HELPIf they can't remember the passcode then you will need to connect the iPad to the computer that you normally sync to and you should then be able to reset the iPad and re-sync your content to it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212) - you may need to put the iPad into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
If you do it via a different computer then :
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. -
Where can I get a bona fide Acrobat Pro 7. I have a legal key and don't need the latest versions
I am a Lightroom and Photshop user. And sometimes I use Acrobat for simple things. In moving to a new computer I somehow lost my Acrobat Pro 7. I still have a legal key for it and don't need it for much. So I not looking forward to paying € 25, - per month. Anyone know wherr I can get a bona fide version of Acrobat Pro 7? Thanks.
"7" will run fine in XP (or equivalent time period Mac OS). "7" does not do well in Vista. "7" is a no go in Windows 7, 8, 8.1 or any contemporty Mac OS.
The Acrobat 7.x product family passed into "End of Support" many, many years ago; it is not compatible in any contemporay OS.
