HT201406 My screen is password protected and the touch screen is unresponsive.  What do I do?

Need help!  Not sure why this happened.  When I plug it into the computer it says I have to enter the password on the ipod, which iam unable. Reseting it also doesn't work.

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

  • Password protection and the dvd tray

    I just bought a Quicksilver mac that was supposed to be from an office that upgraded there computers. The guy that sold it dident know the password to log in, and tomorrow I'm calling the shop to see if they know what it is.
    Anyway I couldent get the dvd drive to open, tried pushing the eject button on the keyboard, tried reseting holding the mouse button, tried f12 key and nothing seemed to open it, so I had to resort to the paper clip manual open, then it wouldent want to close. Had to power it down and manually close it for it to stay shut.
    I was trying to put in a 10.4 install disk to hopefully bypass the password and wipe the drive and start new.
    My question is is it normal for the disk drive to behave this way without a password?

    OK, you don't have Firmware Protection on then.

    Starts up like the first time you buy a new Mac, but after filling in all that info again, you should have access to the computer and the other Users & files will still be there... though I was just thinking, this new User probably shouldn't be the same name as an existing one.
    If that doesn't work for you (and some users have reported it has not worked for them), try Niel's procedure Making the Setup Assistant reappear.

    There is nothing wrong with your Dell, it will work fine with any MacbookPro. I have been using Dell displays for over 12 years with many different Mac models. I have two 21" Ultra Sharp displays working side by side to design a Keynote presentation right now.
    The issue your having is with the way Keynote  takes control of the video output to both displays, it sends the presentation signal to one and the presenter display to the other, this is set up in;
    Keynote preferences > Presenter display.
    If you want to show a wesite or another app on  either display,  use application switcher:
    press the the  command key on the keyboard, then the tab key; a row of applications will show what applications are running, choose which one you want to show. Use command  > tab to return to Keynote.

  • Check the listener is password protected and admin restrictions on from OEM

    Hi All,
    Is there any way to check the listener is password protected and admin restrcitions are on from OEM?

    hi,
    if you try to run,
    lsnrctl status and get the error :
    TNS-01169: The listener has not recognized the password
    then it shows that the listener is protected.
    to proceed, issue:
    LSNRCTL> set password
    Password: <your password>
    you should be able to run lsnrctl status after this
    br,
    mrakBut beware that starting with 10g, the listener uses the same os authentication as sqlplus, so if your OS account is a member of the dba group, you will be able to run lsnrctl without supplying a password, even if the listener is password protected. So while the above error is proof of password protection, lack of the above error is is not necessarily proof of non-password protection.

    My macbook pro was recently returned to me after having been lost. When I turned it on and connected to the internet at home, the activation lock activated. I put my password in and the macbook went to a white apple screen and now won't do anything else. How do I get it running again?

    Take it to an Apple Store. Take proof of purchase with you.

  • HT4901 My iPad was stolen. It is password protected and I locked it. So far no one has tried to turn it on. I would like to erase the content but am afraid that the "Find it' software would be diabled too. Can someone tell me if this is what happens?

    If content is erased, then the ipad will no longer have  the Find My iPhone service turned on, hence can't be tracked.  But the thief will not be able to view your data/apps.  But thieves these days know about the service and can reset the device so that it is no longer tracked, although all data is erased anyway.  They don't care about getting at your data, only about keeping the device to sell or use it as their own.

    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up     
    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        

  • Intel iMac, Open Firmware Password Protection and booting from CD

    I have an Intel iMac I'm setting up for use in a public library. I want to prevent single user login with the Open Firmware Password Protection utility, but if I do, how do I boot from the OS disc, zap PRAM, etc? The OFPP page has instructions on removing the OF password, but it does not work on Intel Mac's. Also, is there an alternative way to prevent single user login?

    No, you were right, I just misunderstood. Technically it's called single-user mode. But, you were right.
    Anyway,
    Since it seems that there might not be an answer directly related to your topic you could maybe give this a try.
    In Simple Finder the user can not restart or shutdown. They can only sleep and log out.
    The other problem, however, is if they log out then there are those Sleep, Restart, and Shut Down buttons on the login screen. Luckily, though they can be turned off.
    So as of now, if some is logged in in a Simple Finder account they can not restart or shut down the computer in order to get into single-user mode. They can also not get into the Administer account since it is password protected.
    The only problem I can see with this is that a person could do a hard shut down, hold the power button down until it turns off, and then boot up and enter single-user mode.
    If you want to go ahead and do this, in order to get the computer up and running in the mean time, just post back and I'll be glad to help you set up a Simple Finder account.

  • Is it possible to enter the lock screen with itunes or something else because i've damaged my phone and the touch screen is damaged that i'm not able to unlock it to make a backup on itunes

    it would be very important to put the data from iphone 5 to my new 5s ..

    thx

    You cant unlock your phone unless you put in your password. It may be possible that the apple store could do something about it.

  • Password protecting and encrypting received pdf file

    Hello there,
    how can I password protect (and encrypt) a pdf file that I received from someone else? For example, I may get a copy of my tax return from my accountant that I don't want anyone else to see on my computer or when I back up contents of my computer online.
    I have only Adobe Reader 8 installed on my computer. So I am not writing these pdf files myself - I realize that then I would have full control over the security settings.
    Microsoft Word and Excel files I can password protect. How can I do this for "received pdf files"?
    Thank you for your help.

    You need Acrobat, not Reader.
    Be aware that even then, PDF security is easy to bypass.
    I use a Mac for the most part but isn't there any features in Windows that will allow you to protect folders?

    Do a reset, hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the device to boot back up.
