how do reset the restriction password on my ipod

Hey Wheatstock,
It sounds like you might be experiencing issues with the passcode on your iPod touch. If that's the case and maybe you've forgotten the passcode or your device is disabled after inputting an incorrect one, take a look at this article:
iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
If, however, you're talking about Restrictions / Parental Controls, you'd want to take a look here:
If you lose or forget a restriction passcode, you will need to perform a factory restore to remove it.

All the best,

    How do you reset a forgotten restriction password on an ipod touch

    They will be erased from the iPod along with everything else, but since those songs must have originated from a source other than the iPod, they must still exist on the computer you used to sync it.
    After you restore the iPod, you just have to sync it with that same computer again.

    Gave my niece my iPad and her father put a restriction code on it and doesn't remember it how can I fix this problem?

    You can't reset the restrictions password.
    If not remembered, the only way to remove it is by restoring the iPad as a new iPad or not from the backup. The restrictions password is included with the iPad's backup, so if you restore from the backup the restrictions password will be restored as well.

    some how there is a restriction password that i dont how do i fix it

    Forgotten RESTRICTIONS Passcode
    - Restore from a backup that was make before you added the Restrictions passcode. If you restore from a backup made with the Restrictions passcode the Restrictions passcode is also restored. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.                
    - If you are up to file manipulation see the following but it may not work for iOS 6.1.3:

  • How do  you reset the root password in Mountain Lion?

    After install of Mountain Lion on my old iMac, I could not enter administrator, no password would work, Apple support helped me go through terminal to reset root password and root as administrator . I then was able to reset myself as administrator with a new pasword. I used that paassword a few times now it wont accept it again. I dont remember all the steps to reset the root password and recover from this situation.. Can anyone help?  Is this a bug in Mountain Lion?

    I'm having similar issues but other concerns
    1. Can't go into recovery mode since its protected by firmware password, which I don't have. All option keys sequences go into the same firmware padlock, which I don't have the apparent pin.
    2. In terminal mode it didn't happen to recognize that unix command.  Also since I'm just on guest would that reset for the admin or possibly the guest acct?
    3. I've done the DIMM pulls and even though older model, 2011, it didn't appear to a reset for the firmware password.
    Any other options??

  • How do you elimanate the restriction Passcode on a IPhone 4 as I forgot the password?

    How do you eliminate the "Restriction Passcode" on a IPhone 4 as I forgot the password?
    I have done a backup and I have done a Restore and I still have the Restriction Passcode On.
    My main objective is to wipe out this phone to manufactures specifications.

    I had the same problem with my iPhone 5C. After trying several YouTube solutions involving CopyBot, which did not work, I finally figured out how to get rid of the restrictions passcode.
    1. Back up your phone to icloud. You will want to be sure you have synced your phone to your laptop as well to access your contacts and photos again.
    2. Make sure you have "Find my Phone" activated on your phone.
    3. On a laptop or other device, go to www.icloud.com/#find.
    4. Login and after the site finds your phone's location, click on the "All Devices" arrow and select your phone.
    5. Select Erase iphone. You will see it erasing on your phone. Don't panic!
    6. When your phone restarts, it will take you through the setup process. YOU WANT TO SET IT UP AS A NEW PHONE! If you restore a backup you will still have the passcode in play.
    7. During the set up, your phone should automatically restore your contacts; however, you may need to upload your photos and music manually.
    8. The restrictions passcode will no longer be on your phone! You will need to download your purchased apps again. This is a bummer, but at least you got past the restrictions passcode.
    I know this worked for the 5c, I can only assume it will work for all versions of the iphone, but I am not an expert.

    My teenager got to this before I did!
    How do I reset the Restrictions Passcode on his iPhone?
    Will this even work to restrict web content?
    I could swear that I remember being able to do this via iTunes when the phone was plugged in, but that functionality doesnt seem to be there.
    I see that I can restrict adult material (songs, R movies and etc) on all phones on the account via iTunes, but I dont see how to customize every individual phone on the account with different restrictions...
    Help...
    thank you

    Is it not possible to have a reminder sent to the account holder (ie:me) to reset, like when a passord for anything thing else is forgotton?    Just dread wiping the whole thing and re-setting up...... 
    Also, do you know if it controls web access?  I seem to remember and itunes content and volume control on the last parental control I used on an iphone, but that was atleast a year ago on a 3GS.
    Thx again
