HT201328 Forgot my passcode, how do I unlock it?

Im a dingus
I forgot my passcode
I've been locked out of it for a millenium
How do I get into it?

If you have synced with iTunes while the passcode was on it, back it up and restore it on the last computer it was synced with.  If you haven't synced since setting the passcode, you'll have to force it into recovery mode to restore it (see http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808), then restore it to an existing backup, if you have one.  (If you don't have one you'll have to set it up as a new iPhone and start over.)

  • I locked my ipod touch, forgot my passcode, how do i unlock it, when i get error code 3194

    help me please, i locked my ipod touch, and forgot my passcode, i keep getting error code 3194, help please

    From this Apple support document: iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    This device is not eligible for the requested build: Also sometimes displayed as an "error 3194." If you receive this alert, update to the latest version of iTunes. Third-party security software or router security settings can also cause this issue. To resolve this, follow Troubleshooting security software issues.
    Downgrading to a previous version of iOS is not supported. If you have installed software to perform unauthorized modifications to your iOS device, that software may have redirected connections to the update server (gs.apple.com) within the Hosts file. First you must uninstall the unauthorized modification software from the computer, then edit out the "gs.apple.com" redirect from the hosts file, and then restart the computer for the host file changes to take affect.  For steps to edit the Hosts file and allow iTunes to communicate with the update server, see iTunes: Troubleshooting iTunes Store on your computer, iPhone, iPad, or iPod—follow steps under the headingBlocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you do not uninstall the unauthorized modification software prior to editing the hosts file, that software may automatically modify the hosts file again on restart. Also, using an older or modified .ipsw file can cause this issue. Try moving the current .ipsw file, or try restoring in a new user to ensure that iTunes downloads a new .ipsw.
    Error 3194: Resolve error 3194 by updating to the latest version of iTunes. "This device is not eligible for the requested build" in the updater logs confirms this is the root of the issue. For more Error 3194 steps see: This device is not eligible for the requested build above.

  • I forgot my passcode How to rectify this problem?

    I forgot my passcode, How rectify this problem?

    Forgot your passcode to unlock your phone? If so, youll have to do a force restore
    Now with the force restore, you will lose all the data on the phone but if you were backing up in either icloud or itunes, youll be able to restore from that backup.

  • TS3274 my ipad locked because I forgot my password how I can unlock

    my ipad locked because i forgot my passward how i can unlock ? thank you

    If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup).
    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.
    You may have to force iPad into Recovery Mode

    Connect the iOS device to your computer and try to make a backup
    iOS: How to back up
    Then restore via iTunes. The iOS device will be erased. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store   
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
