You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.
You can restore from a backup if you have one from BEFORE you set the restrictions passcode.
If none of the above work for you, then:
Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
   1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, 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 turn off.
              * If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
                Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
                release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
       device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
       let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
       charge, and then start with step 2 again.

Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

Why does the Apple store carry iKlear cleaning solution in stores?

I noticed that the manual with my MacBook Pro just recommends dampening the cloth with water in order to clean the screen. Then why does the Apple store and website promote iKlear cleaning solution for the screen (rhetorical question) ? Is this product safe or not for cleaning the screen? Thanks.

They carry it because they're a store, and like any store, anything that boost the margins is great to have on the shelf. It's the same reason any store sells really expensive accessories.
I've always used water as the manual recommends. But iKlear is safe and I'm not necessarily against it. It may be good for unusual or stubborn stains that water can't dissolve. But for everyday cleaning, the question is whether you would prefer to clean your screen for free, or by paying for an expensive chemical.
I've never bought a screen protector for my iPhone either, and it's been totally fine.

Does the Apple Store still recycle iPad 2 now?

Does the Apple Store still recycle iPad 2 and iPhone 4 now? And how much could I get from it to buy a new iPad or iPhone?

Yes if they are in working order. You will have to ask at the Apple Store to find out the amount.

Does the Apple store give you the Verizon upgrade discount, Does the Apple store give you the Verizon upgrade discount

Does the Apple Store give you the Verizon upgrade discount/

Absolutely not. I've confirmed this both with an brick-and-mortar Apple Store employee by phone and via chat with an online Apple Store representative. Instead, they will tell you that 'some people have called Verizon after buying the phone at the Apple Store and received the discount as a credit toward their bill. Verizon, however, flatly denies this is the case and refuses to transfer the upgrade discount to a bill. Verizon claims that you can receive the upgrade discount only by purchasing an iPhone from a Verizon corporate store or from their website.

bought a locked iphone4 5 months ago before a deployment, will the apple store unlock a locked iphone?

Only the provider can unlock the phone and pass the unlock info to Apple. This info will be added to a database and you'll be able to use another SIM when you connect to iTunes after you have been notified that the phone is now unlocked.

Call Apple and find out. Or go to the website and check the FAQs on delivery.

Does the apple care for iphone 3gs cover water damage?

does the apple care + for iphone 3gs cover water damage?

No. Terms of the warranty call that "abuse".
You can hope, and try:
Turn it off, leave it off
Put it in a pile of "dessicant packs" (shipping packs found in hard disk boxes), possibly in a plastic bag (NOT rice -- that has rice-dust which gets into the unit)
Maybe try turning it on again in about 4-5 days
But this is really a desperation move, and I would not do it myself (although others say they have tried it).
Most likely you are paying for either a repair or a new unit.

What does the Apple Store do with our old iPhones?

Question -- I have a water damaged iPhone and I am probably going to have to get it replaced at the Apple Store. It's basically bricked and won't turn on, but what happens when I swap it out? Do they try to fix the old one? Or just gut it for parts? I ask because I have private pictures and notes/passwords, etc. on there that I would worry about people having access to if they were able to get the phone working again.
Once I switch my backed up data and port my number over to the new phone, would anyone still be able to access that stuff on the old one? Or if they did get it working again, would it go back to a restored version?

I guess the real question is if the phone is recoverable, would my data still be on there? I'm worried about my pictures/notes being recovered? Or does that all port over to my new phone?

Are iPhones sold at the apple store unlocked?

I want to buy a iPhone 5 from the apple retail store (not the online store) but I don't know if they're unlocked or not since I have never bought one in store. I need to know ASAP. I live in Canada & the iPhones being sold on the website are unlocked so that's why I'm questioning this. I have also looked on google and couldn't find a straight anwser for this. And do I also have to set up a plan at the store when I buy it or can I just buy the phone? I'm not the one going to buy the phone (a friend is for me) & I was just going to get it activitated when I get the phone.

In some countries, Apple sells unlocked iPhone 5's. They currently do not do so in the U.S. and have not announced an official availability date.

HELP! ...I went to the apple store to get my iPhone replaced. When I left, happy & all, I realized I did not erase the data off of the iPhone I got replaced!! Does the apple store reset those iPhones so that information isn't stolen or tampered with?

I didn't know you were supposed to delete your information when you might get your iPhone replaced...

First, please understand we are not Apple employees on this forum, and we are not authorized to speak for Apple.
Having said that, here are two thoughts:
1. Did you sign a form when you left your old iPhone with Apple? You might consider reading that form. It may help.
2. You might consider telephoning the Apple Store and ask them about resetting your old iPhone.

Does the apple store sell sim to thoes who what to use there phone as a i pod ?

so i got the i phone 6 for christmas and i want to use it as an i pod and i dont have a sim cart and its a unlocked phone ... do u know if the apple store has a sim card just to acctivate stuff like this ? or where i could find a sim WITHOUT any plan ?
***i am not able to bypass the acctivation so i need help !
please help

Not to my knowledge. They do not have a supply of SIM cards. Do you have a cellular phone at all? Do you have a friend with one that has the same size SIM as the phone you have? You can use one of theirs. Why would someone get you an iPhone as opposed to an iPod if you do not have a cellular account?

Does the apple store accept virtual visa cards.

Ok so I couldn't find any section for the actual apple store so this was the closest catogery I could find.
Anyway I got a visa gift card for my birthday and am thinking of ordering the new iphone. But this means I will have to add several more hundred euro onto the card. So I was wondering will the online store accept a virtual visa or will I just be wasting my money

Thanks Carolyn,
Thanks for your reply. I should have specified that I am in ireland, so the payments page is slightly different from the US one. The best equivalent I can find for ireland is
http://store.apple.com/ie/help/payments/card_payment
However there is nothing specified about virtual visas here. I found one virtual visa company (not the one I am looking at using) that states "Please notice Apple® does not support Virtual VISA® at iTunes®."
https://bancore.com/pages/b2c/products/virtualvisa.do
I know the apple store and itunes are different however if it does not work I will have €679 stuck on a virtual visa card that will essentually be of no use to me as it won't be possible to take it off again. There are no physical apple stores in Ireland so the only way to buy an iphone outside of a contract with a mobile phone provider is trough the online store.
I tried ringing their sales line however the person on the other end of the phone did not sound like he had the slightest clue. He just said if the card works on any other online store that it will work with apple which is contrary to what the above virtual visa company say.
Any help offsomeone who has either used or failed to use a virtual visa would be extremely appreciated.

Does the Apple store repair the iPod touch 5 (32Gb) with a cracked screen under the year warranty? (I know they charge money)

So my iPod touch 5th gen 32 Gb got cracked at the top (works) and is still under the year warranty (http://i.imgur.com/j83atSI.png)
I ordered it online through Apple.com and I have never been to the Apple store so I don't know the process of what I do when i get there (with an appointment i Know)
Well also do they even repair cracked screens (minor)? (http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&viewlocale=en_US&geo=United_St ates&product=ipod&select=REPAIR_PRICING) is that information correct

If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5s. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
iPod Service Support and Costs
iPhone Service Support and Costs
iPad Service Support and Costs
There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
1. iResq or Google for others.
2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit
