    I need to erase all Contents and Settings from my i phone 5 but I forgot the restrictions passcode. How can I get it. ( Idon't have access to i tunes). Thanks.

    Not possible.  You need access to iTunes.
    The passcode will be required to make changes to these settings or to disable Restrictions. Note: If you lose or forget a restriction passcode, you will need to perform a factory restore to remove it.

  • What happens when I erase all content and settings?

    I gave my son my iPhone 4.  We just put his sim card in and it started working and  I told him to change the apple id to his.  However, this morning, he said that he still gets my iMessages.  So we did an erase all content and settings.  Now the phone doesn't work.  What do we do?

    When you erase all contents and settings - it wipes the phone clean.
    If your son gets your imessage, on his phone go to settings - message - send&receive - uncheck or remove your apple id.

  • HT201274 Tried to erase all content and settings...now it won't do anything

    I have a first generation iTouch and last night I selected to Erase All Content and Settings. I wanted to wipe it because I'm switching to an iPhone. The iTouch didn't have much charge so I started charging it while it was doing it's thing. Unfortunately, the iTouch doesn't do anything. When I hold down the power button, the white apple logo appears. It's been on a charger for several hours, too. When I plug it into my computer and open iTunes, the computer doesn't recognize the device.

    Try connecting the device to iTunes in recovery mode and restoring it. See this article for instructions on putting your iPod into recovery mode.

  • If I backup my iPhone in iTunes then "Erase All Content and Settings", will I still be able to restore the iPhone?

    I am asking this because my iPhone 4S is really starting to slow down. And I think is mainly due to the deleted text messages bug (i.e., they are still searchable in spotlight!), therefore not deleted off my phone and slowing it down. There are big delays opening up apps (especially Messages) and now, sometimes,  my phone won't even vibrate when texts come in. I also just want to completely wipe the slate clean and start fresh, but I still would like to save the SMS conversations I already have. So I guess what I am afraid of is wiping my phone then iTunes sees the phone as a completely new phone and not "Drew's iPhone" therefore making a restore impossible. Would this be an issue at all?? Thank you!

    If you restore your phone as new - your text message will be deleted from the phone.
    If you erase all contents and settings and then restore from a backup, your text message will still be there.

  • If I erase all content and settings, can I still make calls?

    I've got a lot of 'Other' content on my iPhone that won't go away. (I suspect that it's corrupted music files.) I think the only way I can actually get rid of it is to do an 'Erase all content and settings' and basically hard-reset my iPhone to factory specs.
    My question is this: Will my phone still be able to make and receive calls after I do this? It'll still be my phone, won't it? It won't forget its own number or anything like that? I want to keep the phone, of course, just get rid of that **** 'Other'. So if I erase all content, will this be possible?

    Doing this will not prevent you from using it as a phone, provided that after erasing it you go through the steps to complete its setup.  As you'll see, you'll be prompted to re-enter your Apple ID, etc. once you complete the "Erase all content and settings" process.  At that point you'll be prompted to load a prior backup, either from iCloud or iTunes, but that is optional.  You may want to first try loading your prior backup to avoid having to re-do everything on the iPhone.  Putting your prior backup onto the iPhone may not result in a swollen "Other" as you have now, but maybe it will (if so, just do this again but don't install a backup).

  • HT201274 After using erase all content and settings what will the passcode be?

    After using erase all contens and settings, will the passcode revert to 0000?

    There will be no passcode. The phone will be returned to it's out of the box state. If you did not turn off Find my iPhone before wiping it, you will need to sign in with the Apple ID and password that the phone is locked with.

  • I wish to reset my ipad.  However, when I selectGeneral Reset Erase all content and Settings, I am prompted for a a Restrictions Passcode (which I have never set).  I have now entered random codes 11 times and the ipad not reset. How do I get past this?

    I wish to reset my ipad (as advised by the Apple Store) to attempt to resolve an issue with a non-responsive part of the screen..  However, when I select General>Reset>Erase all content and Settings, I am prompted for a a Restrictions Passcode (which I have never set).  I have now entered random codes 11 times and the ipad has not reset. How do I get past this?  I am now at the point where I have to wait 60 mins before I can enter another random passcode.  I just want the ipad to clear down, erase everything so I can start again.

    The other option is to force iPad into Recovery Mode.

  • HT201274 I do the Erase All Content and Settings, How can i restart my  i phone 3s?

    I do the Erase All Content and Settings, How can i restart my  i phone 3gs?

    Reset the iPhone by holding the sleep/wake button at the top right of the device and the home button at the bottom center of the face at the same time.
    Hold them both until you see the screen go black. In some cases, you may need to keep holding them even after the red power off slider appears. If it does, just keep holding it.
    Wait until the white Apple logo appears.
    When this happens, you can let go - the iPhone is rebooting.
    An iPhone reset will not normally remove or delete any data or settings. However, the term reset is also sometimes used to mean deleting all content from the iPhone and/or restoring from a backup.

  • How to erase all content and settings when I forgot my password

    How do I erase all content and settings on my iPhone 3Gs when I dont remember my Apple ID password and I haven't installed Find my iPhone app on the phone? Thanks!

    It should be the same AppleID and password you use to log in here.
    I haven't installed Find my iPhone app on the phone?
    Installing the app will simply allow you to locate a different iDevice.
    You don’t need to use it to locate the iPhone in your hands. If it’s not in your hands, you cannot use the app on that device...
