HT201210 cannot remember passcode to itouch, how do you get in it?

I cannot remember my passcode to my itouch. Is there a way I can get in without it or can reset it?

You will have to do as the manual says and restore the ipod.
If you are unable then:

  • Bought second hand iPhone 4 they cannot remember the iCloud password how do I get around this

    Bought a second hand iphone4 have contacted seller they cannot remember iCloud password how do I get around this?

    They need to reset their Apple ID password by going to http://iforgot.apple.com and then turn off Find My iPhone.
    At that point you can restore the device as new.
    If they cannot or will not do that, demand a refund.
    If they will not provide a refund, contact law enforcement as the device is most likely stolen.

  • How can you get back into your iPhone if you don't remember the passoword?, How can you get back into your iPhone if you don't remember the password?

    Help!   My daughter changed the password on her iPhone and she can't remember it.  How can she get back into it.  Restoring is not an option so I'm hopeful there is another way.   Thanks!

    Hey KimmyP123,
    Thanks for the question. I understand your daughter has an unknown passcode on her iPhone. The following article provides a few solutions for this situation:
    iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
    I notice you are looking for solutions other than restoring, the article does outline how you can use iCloud's Find My iPhone:
    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.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • How to you get the transfer button in the lower right hand corner?

    I am trying to transfer my purchases from one computer to another through home sharing. The songs come up, but there is no transfer button in the lower right hand corner, so i cannot transfer the purchases. How do you get the button there?

    On the top-bar of iTunes, Under "advanced" click "switch to mini-player". That will automatically switch it to that size.
    You can change it back to normal size mode by clicking the "maximize" symbol.
    Of course, you can adjust the location of it on the screen at anytime by dragging its border (like any other program).
    Good luck!

  • I have just acquired an iMac desktop. I want to sign on to my airport wireless network, but cannot remember the password. How can I access the password or reset it. I already use a MacBook Pro and an iPad on the network.

    I have just acquired an iMac desktop (about 4 years old). I want to connect to my Apple airport wireless network, but cannot remember the password. How can I access the password or, if necessary, reset it. I already use a MacBook Pro and an iPad on the network and don't want to jeopardize what already works well. I am not all that computer literate.

    How can I access the password or, if necessary, reset it.
    Read the user manual that came w/your Airport router or you can cross-post in one of the  AirPort Forums for instructions.

    Connect the iPod to its syncing computer and restore via iTunes. If iTunes asks for the passcode and you can't enter the passcode or you do not have the syncing computer, place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore. For recovery mode see:

    Don't downgrade OS X without first erasing the drive. You cannot restore a Time Machine backup of Lion directly on top of a later version of OS X such as Mountain Lion or Mavericks.
    When you "Restore from a Time Machine Backup.", the drive will be erased for you, but yes, won't hurt to:
    Boot into Recovery (hold ⌘R on boot)
    Utility->Disk Utility->Erase Macintosh HD, then Repair Macintosh HD
    Quit Disk Utility
    Then Select: Restore from a Time Machine Backup.

  • HT204053 I created a new apple id because the previous one no longer exists as email (domain had to be cancelled). I keep seeing the old one pop up in my iPhone for which I don't remember the password. How can I get rid of it???

    I created a new apple id because the previous one no longer exists as an email (domain had to be cancelled). I keep seeing the old one pop up in my iPhone for which I don't remember the password. How can I get rid of it??? Or how can I reset the password if the email doesn't exist??? I also tried answering a question (my date of birth) but it says it's wrong.
    I'm really frustrated with the apple id!!!
    Frustrated!!!

    In one of the help pages for managing your Apple ID (http://support.apple.com/kb/HE40), it shows two separate sections, one for Apple ID and one for Primary Email address. When I go to manage my Apple ID, I see only a single section for both. Can the two be 'separated', especially when you face the situation of having to discontinue your email address for some reason?
    I also noticed that when navigating to Apple ID Support Communities, it shows my nickname 'dishdy'. How and when did I insert this? In the current sequence for creating an Apple ID I don't see this. In my current profile I don't see this.
    In any case, I have freed myself from my previous Apple ID (@artemis.it) on my iPhone.
    Thanks for your help.
